Soul travels through the world of immortality

Hu Ailin looked at the steward in front of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion with an angry look on his face, and gritted his teeth and said, "Where are you, Lord Liu, why don't you let him come to greet you quickly."

"Husband-in-law, my city lord went out to patrol the city yesterday and was injured by a monster in the water. He almost lost his life. At the moment, he is recuperating in the mansion. I would like to ask my husband-in-law Haihan."

"Then who is in charge in the city lord's palace now?" Hu Ailin asked sharply.

The steward looked embarrassed and said timidly: "Prince Prince Consort, please calm down. My lord is indeed seriously injured. He is currently at my disposal in the mansion."

"What's wrong? Look?" Hu Ailin felt something was wrong and sent a message to Li Mingyang.

"I searched the reef. The monster only said that the beast guards came to ask questions, but did not send the beast guards to search. It is really strange."

Hu Ailin reprimanded impatiently: "What are you talking about? It's been more than a month since the official ship was robbed. Can you report it?"

The steward was in a dilemma and hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty said that your Majesty is already aware of this matter and has sent people to search the surrounding sea areas. Due to the strong wind and waves on the sea, he returned quickly and wanted to send animal guards to search again."

Originally, the rough sea was the best reason to shift the blame, but after Li Mingyang thought about it carefully, if His Majesty already knew about it, he shouldn't have kept it secret.

Recalling the conversation between the emperor and the empress he heard in the palace, he intuitively felt that they were behind the scenes. Otherwise, a city lord's palace could not be completely indifferent to the murder of the emperor's relatives. Moreover, the most important thing was that the city lord was attacked at this time. It was quite obvious. , it must be the emperor and empress behind it.

Reluctantly, the steward of the city lord's palace sent some animal guards to search the nearby waters with Commander Ailin.

They searched the surrounding waters and found a purple official robe in a puddle on a black reef. There were also some leftover animal bones in it, and there were many animal skins around it.

After Hu Ailin looked at the official robes, he determined that they were not Hu Wuqian's clothes. There must be some surviving monsters on the official ship that had been here before.

Hu Ailin fell into despair at this time, and sent a large number of beast guards to carefully search the sea area.

After three days of searching, it was determined that there were no other clues. He was also disappointed and had to leave this sea area and search further areas.

Seeing that Hu Ailin's day and night search had completely disappeared, Li Mingyang felt the urge to tell him about the conversation between the emperor and empress in the palace, so he and Xing Qing found a house in the city to prepare to practice a ghost technique.

Unconsciously, half a year passed, and news suddenly came from the City Lord's Mansion that the City Lord had been dismembered, which shocked them all.

Hu Ailin did not leave the city, but went to the city lord's mansion to express his condolences.

When Hu Ailin came back, Li Mingyang noticed an undetectable aura outside the house and asked Xingqing to take a look.

The result was unexpected. Xingqing said that the demon was masked and had a very familiar aura, and seemed to be following him intentionally. When he went out, the demon was lingering at the door of the house, and now it has left.

Two days later, it was said that the emperor learned that the city lord had been killed and appointed an official as the new city lord.

Three days later, the new city lord arrived and invited his consort to a banquet. The person who came to invite him was still the steward of the city lord's palace.

Hu Ailin did not want to accept the flattery of officials, so he took Li Mingyang with him.

When they arrived at the city lord's mansion, they saw only two men and one woman coming out to greet them. The first demon beast was already middle-aged. He was wearing a green official robe, his eyes were like torches, and there was a cold light in his eyes. He was not angry but powerful. He stepped forward and saluted Hu Ailin.

"Prince-in-law, when I first came to this place, I was disappointed to meet you from afar."

The woman who came with her had a beautiful face, beautiful eyes and white teeth. She stepped forward and bowed.
