Meng Yan glanced at Ye Shuo from the corner of his eye, paused, and continued,

“Just half a month ago, I received news that Fu Ling’er appeared in Daye City.

I led my men to Daye City without stopping. When we got there, I found out where she lived, and then I took action that night.

I wanted to take her life in one fell swoop and avenge my son. But I didn't expect that the enemy was so cunning that I was ambushed. Later, I tried my best to escape, but I was also seriously injured and it took me half a month to recover. "Meng Yan said sadly, but there was a mixture of truth and falsehood in his words. He just wanted Ye Shuo to see that it was not that he didn't work hard, but that the enemy was too strong and he was willing but unable.

Ye Shuo picked up the teacup again, and through the rising smoke in the cup, it seemed as if a layer of gauze covered his deep eyes. He squinted his eyes slightly, and through the hazy smoke, his gaze slowly fell on Meng Yan opposite him, and the light in his eyes was unclear.

Being stared at in this way, Meng Yan tried hard to maintain the sad expression on his face, his eyelids drooping, hiding the guilt in his eyes.

"It seems that you have been wronged," Ye Shuo said in a light tone.

"We all work for the Ghost Demon Pavilion, so it's not a question of whether we feel wronged or not. Sigh! I just regret that my subordinates are not doing a good job. I hope Pavilion Master Ye won't blame me."

"So, where is Fu Ling'er now? No matter what, we can't keep her here, no matter what method we use."

"Master, this is exactly what I want you to report. A few days ago, someone I left in Daye City sent back a message saying... that Fu Ling'er had suddenly lost her whereabouts. He searched the entire Daye City but could not find any trace of Fu Ling'er. I guess that bitch has already left Daye City."

"Huh? That means we don't know where she has gone now?" When Ye Shuo heard this, he was shocked. He came here for that woman, and how could she disappear in such a short time?

"Yes... yes,"

"Damn it, how do you do things? Didn't you say you would keep her under control? Where else has she appeared besides Daye City? Who have you seen her contact with?"

"No,"

"So is there any rumor that she has any friends?"

"No."

"You...how come you don't know anything? Where are we going to look for him now? Where are we going to look for him now? No, I can't make this trip in vain. I have to find him as soon as possible.

Go, go to the Mercenary Guild and post a bounty. Find the person as soon as possible, no matter how much gold coins it costs."

"Yes, yes, I will go right away. Master, please calm down and drink some tea to calm down." Meng Yan poured tea for Ye Shuo, got up and went out immediately. When he reached the door, he told Meng Yi who was standing at the door,

"Meng Yi, take Pavilion Master Ye to the guest house to rest later. Don't neglect me. I'm going to go out and do something."

"Yes,"

Meng Yan soon appeared at the Mercenary Guild in the south of the city, and went to the counter to issue a missing person mission at ten times the price.

"Master Meng, our guild will definitely send out the task you assigned personally as quickly as possible. I believe that we will receive news soon, and then our guild will send someone to deliver it to your home," the beautiful woman behind the counter smiled brightly. Just by completing this task, their guild can get half of the commission, and the commission reward given to her is also considerable.

Well, she likes big customers like Meng Yan.

As expected, it only took one afternoon for the famous, powerful and influential mercenary guild to quickly spread the missing person notice-like news.

And it spread quickly like a prairie fire to the other six large, populous and prosperous cities around Luoji City!

It seemed as if the whole world was shocked and enveloped by this astonishing news at this moment. People who received the news talked about it and were full of curiosity and concern about it. They were all guessing whether there was any heart-wrenching story in it.

And Fu Ling'er, whom they were thinking about, was indeed no longer in Daye Mountain at this moment.

She, Xiao Zi, Ling You, Zhuge Qiao and the other two were on their way to Luoji City.

Many matters of Qiankun Hall have been arranged properly, with Yan Sang in charge and Long Long as the escort, Wanqi Yuan is very confident in him. As for the auction house, Yang is in charge, and Song Lianchen is assisting, so he can be a hands-off manager.

So he and Fu Ling'er set off on their journey.

However, Fu Ling'er had already decided that she and Wanqi Yuan would be together, one in the open and the other in the dark, so they could not be together in public.

So Wanqi Yuan was now practicing in seclusion in the Time Flow. It would take them three or four months to get to Luoji City at a normal speed. Wanqi Yuan decided to use these three or four months to upgrade his power by a small level.

The four of them walked and stopped along the way. They crossed mountains and waded through water. They would fight against injustice when they encountered it. Then they quietly left, hiding their achievements and fame, and the days slipped away quietly.

That day, the four passed by Tiehu City.

As soon as they walked near the city gate, they immediately noticed strange looks from passers-by.

These people looked at them with eyes shifting in fear, and kept looking at them as if they wanted to see through them.

Not only that, some people would even point at them secretly and whisper to each other in low voices.

This made Fu Ling'er feel very confused and puzzled. She couldn't help but frown and wondered, what's wrong with these people? They didn't look like they were sizing up strangers. Why did she feel that they were confirming something? This was their first time in Tiehu City, so why were they pointing at them? All kinds of questions came to her mind, making Fu Ling'er feel more and more strange.

Turning her head and catching a glimpse of Xiao Zi's purple hair, a thought suddenly flashed through Fu Ling'er's mind. Could it be...

"Sister Ling, why are they looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?" Xiao Zi asked puzzledly.

Ling Youjun's face darkened, as if he had guessed something. Suddenly, a bad thought flashed through his mind.

"Sister Ling, I'm afraid we can't enter Tiehu City. How about we take a detour or take a spaceship?"

"Lingyou, have you thought of something? What are you afraid of? Anyway, our purpose is to cause trouble. Since others are deliberately looking for trouble with me, why should I hide? Isn't this the perfect time?" Fu Ling'er thought that since someone had taken action first, she could just wait.

"Sister Ling is right,"

"Sister Ling, what are you guys talking about?" Xiao Zi flashed her purple eyes, looked at Ling You, then at Sister Ling, and asked in confusion.

"Stupid, Sister Ling has already explained it very clearly. Didn't you just ask why those people were staring at you? Someone must have issued a task to find us. Now that we appear automatically, I guess someone must have gone to inform on us. This means that we are in trouble," Zhuge Qiao rarely explained to Xiao Zi.
