Are you crazy? Who asked you to hunt for treasures in the emperor's harem?

"Eh? Leave Jiangzhou City as soon as possible?"

Hearing Liu Ran's words, Ye Fan was slightly stunned, "Senior Liu, why?"

"Yes, father, why?"

There was obvious confusion in Liu Mengying's voice.

"call!"

Liu Ran sighed and spoke slowly: "Xiaoying, Ye Fan, remember the invisible enemy I mentioned when I first wanted you to leave Jiangzhou City!"

"Uh-huh!"

Liu Mengying nodded, "At that time, my father said that the invisible enemy was related to my mother's death..."

"Yes, it was the other party's raid eighteen years ago that caused your mother's illness..."

Having said this, Liu Ran let out a long sigh again, "The invisible enemy was ridiculously powerful... I thought that Yingying and I were doomed... But when we escaped to a place... The other party's pursuit suddenly stopped..."

"The place where Yingying and I fled to was Jiangzhou City..."

"Everyone in the world thought that I, Liu Ran, gave up going to the capital... I gave up Qinhuai City, which is richer and has a more pleasant climate... I chose Jiangzhou City, which has a criss-crossed water network and extremely complicated penetration of various forces, because I was afraid of the royal family and also because of my fear of the royal family. Or he suffered an assassination, his strength is not as good as before, and he no longer has the ambition to compete for supremacy... In fact, it is none of this..."

"The real reason why I came to Jiangzhou City is the invisible enemy..."

Liu Ran's eyes flashed, "Although I don't know the details, Jiangzhou City should be a special place...enough to make the invisible enemy afraid..."

"The facts also proved my guess... From then until now, I have never encountered that invisible enemy again..."

At this point, Liu Ran changed the topic and looked at Ye Fan, "Ye Fan, you took a big iron ball with an iron chain from the city lord's mansion before, right?"

"Oh yes!"

Ye Fan nodded, "But I turned that iron ball into an iron rod!"

After the words fell, Ye Fan's hand flashed with light, and he took out a black iron rod with an uneven appearance, about five feet long, from the Naxuan Ring.

"Made into an iron rod? What is it made of?"

Liu Ran looked surprised. He naturally knew that the iron ball was extremely hard and was very suitable for making a weapon. However, the problem was that he couldn't find any tools that could be used for cutting or hammering. This led Lin He to throw it randomly in the courtyard of the city lord's palace. Leave it to the sun and rain.

"Oh, I hit it directly with my body! This iron ball will become slightly softer after absorbing the mysterious energy!"

Ye Fan replied quickly.

"Yes, big brother has been beaten for many days, and his whole body is swollen!"

Liu Mengying nodded slightly and took up the conversation.

"this………"

Liu Ran frowned and didn't say much about Ye Fan's blacksmithing. Instead, he talked about another thing, "Ye Fan, that iron ball is me, Lei Zhentian, Lin He, Qinhuaicheng's Yao Yue, and A group of all kinds of mysterious cultivators... What Lin He got when we explored an ancient secret realm..."

"At that time, that big iron ball was regarded as a treasure by everyone because it was extremely hard and could block the attack of condensed profound energy. However, it was difficult to carry because it kept vibrating, and it was easy to expose one's whereabouts... …Me, Lei Zhentian, and Yao Yue have all given up…”

"And Lin He, who is the weakest, may know that he cannot compete with us for the treasure deep in the ancient secret territory, so he just took the big iron ball back to Jiangzhou City... After all, Lin He, as the royal envoy, went to a If you go to the ancient secret realm and find nothing, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as your face being dull..."

"It's strange to say that after the big iron ball entered Jiangzhou City, it stopped shaking... There were a lot of miscellaneous things going on at that time. There were undercurrents from various forces in Jiangzhou City, and the situation was quite chaotic. How could I pay attention? ………”

"Then I thought about it...the big iron ball stopped shaking, probably because Jiangzhou City is special..."

Liu Ran explained quickly.

"This...Senior Liu, since Jiangzhou City is so special...then Xiaodouya should stay in Jiangzhou City, right?"

Ye Fan looked at Liu Ran in confusion, "But...Senior Liu, you seem to want Xiao Douya to leave Jiangzhou City?!"

"According to common sense, this is the case! But I have a very bad feeling..."

Liu Ran nodded, frowning tightly, "Although the invisible enemy has not moved for many years...but I have a hunch that if the other party is determined to take action, it can be done... ..It’s just that the price the other party needs to pay may be very high..."

"Then...if Little Douya leaves with me, will the invisible enemy directly target us?"

Ye Fan's voice was slightly worried.

"It is indeed possible!"

Liu Ran nodded, "But the other party's main target is me... and the other party will not take action unless it is absolutely necessary... I took the risk of going to the capital once before... There was no movement from the other party..." I don’t know if I want to distance myself from the relationship with the Mingyuan royal family..."

"Dissolve the relationship?"

Liu Mengying blinked her eyes, her expression very serious, "Father, is the enemy who killed my mother...a member of the Mingyuan royal family?"

"No evidence!"

Speaking of this, Liu Ran sighed, "Xiaoying, your mother's matter... I have never stopped investigating over the years... but there are still no useful clues..."

"But there is no clue, it is a clue in itself... Even if the invisible enemy is not sent by the Mingyuan royal family, it is definitely related to the Mingyuan royal family..."

"Ye Fan, Xiaoying, don't worry too much about the invisible enemy!"

"Through my testing over the years... I surmise that the invisible enemy cannot attack casually. There should be some restrictions. He should stay in a special place... and leave that special place. If so, you will need to pay a considerable price..."

"When we were dealing with those who were chasing me and Yingying, they were quite calm at first, like a cat playing with a mouse, but then they started to get anxious... This led to them falling into my scheme one after another... Only then can I take Yingying and escape all the way to Jiangzhou City..."

Liu Ran's tone was quite certain.

"Then...that's okay~"

Although there were many things that were not clear, Ye Fan decided to trust Liu Ran, and he was also very concerned about the direction pointed by the transparent gemstone...

..........

the next day,

Ye Fan and Liu Mengying went shopping early in the morning, because they were leaving Jiangzhou City soon, so they planned to purchase some Jiangzhou City specialties.

Before, Ye Fan entrusted Qian Duoduo to sell the jewelry picked up in Weiming Lake. Now he and Liu Mengying are both rich. After a while, Liu Mengying's Naxuan ring was full, and she was holding large and small bags in her hands...

"Phew! Phew!~"

The two were walking on the street. Suddenly, a charcoal brazier flew from the left. Liu Mengying raised her foot and kicked the charcoal brazier into a pool not far away. After the red-hot charcoal turned into water, it made a sizzling sound. Steam and smoke rise rapidly.

"You are a fifth-level Xuanshi... Xiaodouya cultivates very quickly..."

Feeling the fluctuations of profound energy emanating from Liu Mengying's body, Ye Fan was quite happy, because Liu Mengying began to have the ability to protect herself.

"Who is it? There are so many people on the street, how dangerous it is to throw braziers everywhere!"

Liu Mengying looked angrily at the direction the charcoal brazier had just come from. If she hadn't reacted quickly, she would have been hit.
