But no matter how you think about it, this is Duan Lanruo's territory, and she has said that all of these people are her secret guards. The secret guards in the City Lord's Mansion are absolutely top-notch in strength, and each of them is above the Nascent Soul stage. These unknown people have made an indelible contribution to maintaining the order of the entire Wanjian City.
It has strength and confidentiality. Besides, this is Yanlou, the place where Qingxie Fang is. Since Wanjian City allows Qingxie Fang to appear here, and Duan Lanruo can also use this place as a place for private meetings, it means that this place is really safe.
Duan Lanruo is very thoughtful, there won't be any mistakes...
Liu Yuan still attributed his worries to thinking too much recently.
He coughed twice and said, "Of course, I always trust you, but before I talk about things, I have something I want to ask you for help..."
Duan Lanruo sat beside him and held his arm. Hearing this, she said softly, "Don't ask me for help. Have we become so estranged from each other? As long as you ask, I will do it for you."
Liu Yuan shook his head and said, "It's not that serious... It's just that I just saw my, uh, my daughter ran into the Yan Tower, I have to catch her back..."
"Daughter?" Duan Lanruo was stunned and said in disbelief: "You even have a daughter? Is it with your two wives? No, that's not right. The timing is definitely wrong."
Liu Yuan said with a smile: "No, she was not born, she was born from the fusion of the Reincarnation Lotus and the essence and blood of her parents."
Duan Lanruo suddenly realized, then asked in confusion: "Who did you have the baby with?"
The two of them were about to get married, so naturally they could have whatever they wanted. There was no need for this. So Liu Yuan had another woman...
Liu Yuan said: "The Saint of the Demonic Cult, Vihara."
Duan Lanruo's face was a little stiff: "Vihuan Luo?"
Even the Lord of Wanjian City felt a chill in front of this name, remembering the faint smile under the black veil of this vicious woman.
Many years ago, she had witnessed the scene of Vihara slaughtering the righteous. Anyone who has seen that scene will be haunted by nightmares.
Vihara, these three words are as terrifying as a nightmare to those who follow the right path.
If such a person falls in love with someone, it will be an endless entanglement for life. If he cannot get it, he will be destroyed.
Duan Lanruo found that what she was most worried about at the moment was whether Liu Yuan would be killed by Vihara because of his unfaithfulness... and she was powerless to do anything about it.
"Huh..." Duan Lanruo's chest rose and fell slightly.
Liu Yuan reached out and held her trembling hand, saying, "Don't be afraid... Vihara no longer has any possessive desire for me. She left her daughter by my side to protect me, but to me, Zhiying is also like a real daughter. Although she is Vihara's daughter, she has nothing in common with the people of the Demon Cult. On the contrary, she is very cute... Next time I will introduce you to her?"
"If she were your daughter, I would treat her like my own."
Duan Lanruo took a deep breath and stretched out her hand to call A Yue who was serving beside her. Liu Yuan described the appearance and location, and A Yue immediately nodded and left.
Duan Lanruo held Liu Yuan's hand again, leaned against him, and muttered, "You even managed to deal with the Saint of the Demon Sect, so why can't you deal with these two?"
Liu Yuan smiled awkwardly and said, "That's different... And Vihara left a knife in my heart. I don't know when we'll hurt each other and die together. I was lucky to have a narrow escape at that time."
Duan Lanruo leaned against his arm, her fingers stroking his heart, frowning and concentrating: "Is it her real name weapon? It's so vicious..."
Liu Yuan sighed: "You have seen my current cultivation level, how could I possibly suppress Shen Sifan?"
Duan Lanruo pondered and said, "This is a big problem, but in fact, Shen Sifan sees you as the goal to defeat, and you also promised that she can marry you when she defeats you. Therefore, the combination of the two, defeating you is her motivation for practicing swordsmanship, and the responsibility of Taiqing Pavilion is no longer there. So when your cultivation level declined and you married someone else, her Tao heart was damaged. In fact, she has already entered a state of paranoia... You might as well tell her that your strength can be restored now, but you need her help. After you recover, fight her again. If she wins, you marry her. If she loses, you... you still marry her."
Duan Lanruo couldn't help laughing when she said this, "In the final analysis, she just wants your heart. Understand this point. She is actually just a little girl who is confused because of love. You can use that time to soften her heart a little bit. Naturally, she will not want to kill you. But in the end, you have to defeat her."
After listening to her analysis, Liu Yuan felt that it was indeed the case, but he also felt that this method was too despicable. On the one hand, he asked Shen Sifan to help him improve his cultivation, but in the end, he was planning to take her into his pocket...
However, this is the best way.
He nodded and said, "Indeed, after watching the tide and listening to the sword in a few days, she should have calmed down. I will go and communicate with her then."
Duan Lanruo nodded, and then found that the two of them were already close to each other. Suddenly, she remembered that she was having a "secret meeting and having an affair"...
The dignified Lord of Wanjian City, seemingly a chaste widow with a daughter, was secretly meeting with a young man in the inner hall of a brothel. This, this was truly despicable.
Duan Lanruo was overwhelmed by this taboo feeling of shame, and a blush appeared on her cheeks. It would be too much to say that nothing happened between the two of them in those years, but in fact, nothing beyond the pale had happened...
Perhaps this is the reason why Duan Lanruo truly fell in love with this man. He admired the beauty of this body, but also cherished the soul within this body.
But now, she would secretly think about doing something for him... Duan Lanruo narrowed her eyes, suddenly raised her head, hugged Liu Yuan's neck, looked at each other, pursed her lips and whispered: "Ayue, she is the child I raised since she was a child, my closest confidant... I have always wanted to give you some compensation."
Duan Lanruo asked A Yue to come forward and take off the mask. Behind the rigid wood was a beautiful face.
A Yue half-knelt in front of Liu Yuan, her face expressionless, but the roots of her ears hidden in her hair were a little red.
Compensation? Liu Yuan thought this was really exciting.
-
Shen Sifan raised his head and looked expressionlessly at the quiet and elegant pavilion in front of him. He could also faintly hear the sounds of singing and dancing, laughter, pearl curtains and jade pendants, and clinking of glasses.
The light spots transformed from ashes floated in, guiding the direction.
She looked at the two words "Yanlou" in front of the door.
Her cultivation in the Void Refining Stage allowed her to ignore defense. Almost in an instant, she used the [Sword Transformed into Body] to rush into the Inkstone Tower where the light spot was at the fastest speed.
The sound of the beads tinkling in his ears, Shen Sifan opened his eyes wide and looked at the three people in front of him.
A young man with a strange look, one was the mayor of Wanjian City who had received her not long ago, and the other one looked like the mayor's secret guard judging by his clothes.
The young man and the secret guard were very close, while the city lord was hugging the young man from behind. The smell of sandalwood rising from the copper stove made the atmosphere extremely ambiguous.
It seems that he has witnessed the corruption among the top leaders of Wanjian City!
impossible!
These three words were the only ones left in Shen Sifan's mind.
Those spots of light were falling on the young man with a stiff expression and horrified eyes.
Chapter 114: A Child Raising a Husband
crunch--
Shen Sifan's grip on the sword gradually tightened, and the hilt made a sound as if it was deforming, which showed how much force he was using.
The Green Lotus Sword is the hardest object in the world, especially the Lotus Heart hilt and the sword tip, even these made a creaking sound when squeezed. If what Shen Sifan was holding in his hand was a human head, it would have become a mosaic-filled paste.
Qinglian Jianzi looked at the somewhat disgusting scene in the room with an expressionless face. If there were reporters in this era, this scene would have been filmed and become an explosive topic: "The widow of the former Sword Pavilion master and the lord of Wanjian City has a chaotic private life."
The young man surrounded by the light spot looks unfamiliar, but the direction of the magic is definitely correct.
However, the person she was thinking about was currently doing some extremely bad things with the Lord of Wanjian City and her secret guards. If the secret guards had not been half-kneeling in front of the young man, she would have seen an even worse scene.
The Lord of Wanjian City had received her not long ago. She left her with the impression of an elegant and stern figure who was a model of high-ranking female cultivators. However, now she was shamelessly hugging the young man's waist, holding him tightly, as if she was trying to add to the fun!
The young man had his hand on the head of the secret guard. Wasn't it clear what the secret guard was going to do? ! Was the lord of this city planning to lend a hand? ? ?
How shameless! How disgusting!
Shen Sifan, who was born in the Taoist Taiqing Pavilion and spent hundreds of years of his life in seclusion, opened his eyes wide, and the anger and disbelief in his heart were about to burst out!
"Liu! Jun! Xuan!"
The dress of the heroic swordsman at the door fluttered in the wind, and her aura was fully open. The pressure of the Void Refining Stage was overwhelming, and the bead curtain hanging at the door turned to ashes in an instant.
To catch a thief, you must catch the leader; to catch an adulterer, you must catch both of them.
Today, Shen Sifan caught three in one go.
It really is so delightful.
“Haha…hahahahaha…”
Shen Sifan laughed in anger, his smile was cold, and the edge of his sword was shining, as if the star of death was shining.
I’m going to—die—hurry—hurry—hurry! ! !
Liu Yuan's horrified gaze fell on A Yue, who was half-kneeling in front of him, and on the pair of soft hands belonging to Duan Lanruo at his waist.
He looked at the light spots on his body. Even if he didn't know what kind of magic it was, he could guess with his toes that it was definitely used for tracking, but he didn't know the specific principles.
Anyway, now people have already been guided with precision, reaching the destination in an instant, and then exploding, so there is no need to discuss the process anymore -
He had already smeared the entire affair, and a threesome at that, all over Shen Sifan's face. The only thing he had done was to say "Not only did I marry someone else, I also had an affair with her. Everything I said before was a lie. I have deceived you for hundreds of years. If you have the guts, just chop me to death."
Then he really came to the door and drew his sword to kill people.
I got up, and I killed him in one strike. What else can I say?
Qinglian Jianzi felt that he was calmer than ever before. His heart was like a raging fire, which would burn out into ashes. He was so calm that he wanted to perform the Thousand Lotus Dragon-Split Cloud Waterfall again.
"Shh!"
She raised her sword, which shone like a silver thread, drawing a graceful yet murderous trajectory and stabbed towards Liu Yuan's neck.
The speed is so fast that it can be described as thunder and lightning.
Even if Liu Yuan was equipped with all the cards, it would not be enough for this sword.
So he was prepared to fight back.
The fear and confusion only lasted for a brief moment, and Liu Yuan made up his mind instantly. He had thought a lot in the past few days, and the appearance of Shen Sifan became a catalyst. If he hesitated any longer, the same situation would happen again sooner or later, so it was better to cut the Gordian knot!
If he can't resist, he will just leave it to fate. If he can resist, he will use a torture tactic on Shen Sifan in his extremely low health state to make him hesitate for a moment, and then use Vihara's [Vasa's Various Aspects] to take the opportunity to counterattack - he feels that he can't go on like this!
Either die or start a harem!
come on!
However, just as he was about to close his eyes heroically, Duan Lanruo behind him suddenly let go of the hand that was around him, and a faint voice came from his ears.
"Qinglian Jianzi, this is not your Taiqing Pavilion, but Wanjian City. Do you want to kill my people in front of me, Duan Lanruo?"
Preemptively strike with words and power?
But this... No, that's not right!
Liu Yuan suddenly remembered what he had overlooked. He opened his eyes wide and looked up. The mature and beautiful woman stood up, stretched out her hand, and grabbed Shen Sifan's sword with her palm.
The sword suddenly stopped. Although it was still moving forward a little bit, it finally stopped in front of Liu Yuan's neck.
"Tick tock..."
Duan Lanruo looked at the blood dripping from her slightly trembling hands and smiled, "Qinglian Jianzi's reputation is well-deserved."
Her smile faded, and she said coldly: "But this is not a reason for you to be so presumptuous!"
Spiritual power was like a tide, and flaming light gushed out instantly. Duan Lanruo's hand holding the sword was covered with a layer of golden light, which extended to the Qinglian Sword, but the sword body could not move forward even half an inch.
[Quenching Broken Gold]
"The one who knows swords best in this world is the swordsmith. You kill people with your sword, and I will kill your sword."
Duan Lanruo, the lord of Wanjian City, may not have high combat power, nor can she be as abnormal as Shen Sifan in cross-level combat, but her cultivation is truly at the fusion stage!
Yes, the same fusion period as Vihara!
Liu Yuan subconsciously overestimated Shen Sifan's fighting ability due to his inertial thinking, and also underestimated the targeted attack power of a nine-star swordsmith against sword cultivators.
It is true that the Green Lotus Sword may be the hardest sword in the Upper Central Realm, but it was also forged artificially by a Nine-Star Swordsmith and has flaws. Duan Lanruo, who is also a Nine-Star Swordsmith, has skills that are completely targeted at sword cultivators.
Although no one knew what would happen if a real fight broke out, Duan Lanruo had completely stopped Shen Sifan now.
"How can this be absurd! How can the dignified Lord of Wanjian City have such a clear conscience as to have an affair with someone else's husband?!"
Shen Sifan gritted his teeth, his handsome and heroic face full of anger. He glared at Liu Yuan who got down from the chair to tidy up his clothes.
Fortunately, he hasn't started yet, otherwise he would have been scared to death.
Liu Yuan smiled awkwardly, but he still felt quite regretful in his heart. The plan of counterattack with low health just now was actually quite feasible.
But he really didn't dare to touch the things left by Vihara...
A Yue stood in front of Liu Yuan dutifully, the blush on her face still lingering, which made Shen Sifan even more annoyed.
Duan Lanruo frowned suddenly after hearing this, revealing a trace of doubt: "Other people's husband? Why does Qinglian Jianzi say that?"
Eh?
Liu Yuan was stunned, but saw Duan Lanruo turned her head and winked at him.
"Will your disguise be discovered?"
"...No, unless you observe closely, you will never be able to see through it. She relies on the magic of that light spot, so she should be judging by the aura."
Shen Sifan on the other side said angrily: "Lord Wanjian, don't you know? Liu Junxuan and I made a promise decades ago that he would stay with me for the rest of his life. Doesn't that mean he can't be considered my husband?"
Duan Lanruo frowned even more deeply: "I think Qinglian Jianzi may have misunderstood. His name is Jiang Feng. To be honest... I have been supporting him in his cultivation since he was a child. I recently asked him to come to Wanjian City, and he has been meeting with me privately for more than a day or two."
The mature, beautiful and powerful Lord of Wanjian City blushed and pursed her lips.
"To put it simply, it is what people often call a child-raising husband. It is definitely not the Liu Junxuan you mentioned."
