"oops!"
Although everyone was prepared, Gui Jianxiao and Yun Yan'er still couldn't help but feel nauseous the moment they saw it. The young man's true identity was revealed to be a monster lurking in human society. The disgusting demonic aura emanating from his body made people feel extremely uncomfortable even from a distance. Although Lu Xuanxin was slightly stronger than them, she also felt uncomfortable and quickly turned her head away, but a subtle determination and coldness flashed in her eyes.
The city lord was right there. If he let the young man run away, he would have no chance to be the city lord. Before the city lord could do anything himself, the middle-aged man who came with him had already quickly controlled the young man. His skillful technique showed that he was obviously an experienced master.
"Master! Master!" Then, several women with children came running over and threw themselves on the head of the family, crying heartbreakingly. Their eyes were full of despair and helplessness, as if the whole world had collapsed at this moment.
Yang Zhibin secretly glanced at Lu Xuanxin, and when he saw that she didn't say anything, he ordered people to take the young man and the guards away. A trace of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he secretly admired Lu Xuanxin's sharpness and calmness.
Lu Xuanxin and the others were naturally not interested in watching the drama of the family's property dispute, so they left together. Walking on the street, she frowned slightly, seeming to be a little impatient with everything here.
In the car, Yun Yan'er asked Lu Xuanxin in a low voice: "Xuanxin, how do you know they are demons?" Her eyes were full of curiosity and confusion, and she was obviously amazed at Lu Xuanxin's keen insight.
Lu Xuanxin glanced at her and answered in a low voice: "We lived in the Dark Forest for a while and are quite familiar with the demonic energy." Her voice was calm and firm, as if that experience was just a small episode in her life.
Yun Yan'er and Lin Xiaofeng both stared at her and asked worriedly, "What's going on?" Their eyes were full of concern and worry, and they were obviously very concerned about Lu Xuanxin's past.
"That's all in the past. Look, aren't we doing fine now?" Lu Xuanxin looked at them with a smile, a warm light flashing in his eyes.
"You guys?" Yun Yan'er glanced at Old Lady Li and the others, her eyes full of confusion. She was obviously puzzled by Lu Xuanxin's words, and didn't understand who she was referring to by "you guys".
"What's wrong?" Lu Xuanxin raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you want to go too? I don't mind taking you with me." Her tone was relaxed and teasing, obviously she was joking.
Yun Yan'er got furious when she heard that and reached out to strangle her: "Little girl, who is your sister? Ha? You even dare to take advantage of me? Are you tired of living?" Although her tone was angry, there was a hint of pampering and helplessness in her eyes.
Lu Xuanxin dodged with a smile and begged for mercy, "Aunt, I was wrong, is that not enough?" There was a hint of playfulness and mischief in her tone, and she was obviously trying to make Yun Yan'er happy.
"I'll deal with you when you grow up." Yun Yan'er snorted, and then said seriously, "Don't interrupt, tell me what's going on?" Her eyes were full of seriousness and earnestness, and she obviously cared about Lu Xuanxin's words very much.
Lu Xuanxin had no choice but to talk about the Dark Forest. She described the eerie forest and the monsters lurking in it. Her tone was calm and cool, as if she was just telling a story that had nothing to do with her. However, when she mentioned the cultivation of magic energy, she suddenly paused, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes.
"So, I couldn't find you at that time because you were in the Dark Forest?" Lin Xiaofeng stared at her without blinking. His eyes were full of concern and worry, and he was obviously very concerned about Lu Xuanxin's past.
"Maybe." Lu Xuanxin was not sure, and her sound transmission stone had been thrown aside long ago, and she hadn't paid attention to it. There was a hint of uncertainty and casualness in her tone, as if she didn't care much about that experience.
"Xuanxin, where are we going next?" Yun Yan'er looked at Lu Xuanxin, her eyes gleaming with anticipation. She was obviously full of trust and expectation for Lu Xuanxin's decision.
Lu Xuanxin was silent for a while and said, "Let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion and stay there temporarily. I don't think this matter is over yet." There was a hint of solemnity and seriousness in her tone, and it was obvious that she had a clear judgment of the current situation.
"Good idea!" Gui Jianxiao lowered his head, as if thinking about something. There was a glimmer of cunning and wit in her eyes, and she obviously had her own understanding of Lu Xuanxin's decision.
Lu Xuanxin took her arm and said softly, "Sister Jianxiao, don't you want to learn the art of disguise? How about we stay here and wait until you have learned it before leaving?" There was a hint of tenderness and kindness in her tone, and it was obvious that she was full of care and concern for Gui Jianxiao.
"Then let's go back to Medicine King Valley first, disguise ourselves, and come back to let the elders guess who we are, how about that?" Gui Jianxiao's eyes lit up, and he was obviously full of interest and anticipation for this idea. She hadn't seen her parents for more than a year, how could she not miss them? If she really had to go to the Central Region in the future, she didn't know when she would see them again.
"Of course. I also miss my mother's cooking, and I will ask her to make delicious food for me." Lu Xuanxin's beautiful face flashed a trace of yearning. Her eyes were full of longing and desire for home, and obviously she was full of nostalgia and expectation for her mother's cooking skills.
"Xuanxin, thank you!" Gui Jianxiao leaned gently on her shoulder, his eyes gleaming with gratitude. In this strange world, besides family, it is really a great happiness to have such a friend to accompany you.
"Do you remember what I said when I first met you?" Lu Xuanxin leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I told you at that time that you wouldn't be able to find a good husband if you followed me." There was a hint of teasing and joking in her tone, and she was obviously trying to make fun of him.
"What did you say at that time? You said boldly that no matter whether he has feelings for you or not, as long as he likes you, you should take him first. What? Have you forgotten?" Gui Jianxiao stared at her with eyes wide open, with a glimmer of curiosity and confusion in his eyes. She was obviously very surprised and puzzled by Lu Xuanxin's words.
Lu Xuanxin raised her eyebrows and looked at her, then secretly glanced at Lin Xiaofeng, "Little guy, can you hide your thoughts from me? We are the same kind of people." There was a sly and clever look in her eyes, and it was obvious that she knew the mind of Gui Jianxiao very well.
"Is it really that obvious?" Gui Jianxiao also secretly glanced at Lin Xiaofeng, covering her mouth and asked softly. There was a hint of shyness and uneasiness in her tone, and she was obviously a little embarrassed and ashamed of her performance.
"Of course! Your eyes are almost glued to him." Lu Xuanxin teased, with a playful gleam in her eyes. She was obviously trying to make the ghost laugh and relieve her embarrassment.
"Pah, no way." Gui Jianxiao suddenly became shy. She had just spoken so generously, but now that she was in this situation, it was not the same. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and a hint of shyness and uneasiness flashed in her eyes. The man she liked was thinking about another woman, and that woman was her good friend. She felt uncomfortable just thinking about it.
"No? Then maybe I misunderstood? Alas, I wanted to be your matchmaker, but it seems that you don't mean that." Lu Xuanxin sighed in disappointment, but her eyes were glittering with cunning. She was obviously trying to make Gui Jianxiao happy, wanting her to let go of her shyness and uneasiness.
"Are you really willing to help me?" Gui Jianxiao tightly grasped her arm and secretly glanced at Lin Xiaofeng. Her eyes were full of expectation and desire, and she was obviously grateful and expectant for Lu Xuanxin's help. Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaofeng also looked over, and their eyes met in the air. Gui Jianxiao hurriedly lowered his head, his face flushed like fire.
"Sister, don't you claim to be multi-talented? Come, I'll help you, the rest is up to you." Lu Xuanxin smiled and patted her shoulder, his eyes gleaming with encouragement and expectation. She was obviously full of confidence and expectation in Gui Jianxiao, believing that she would be able to successfully pursue the man of her dreams.
Thinking of the scene when they first met, Lu Xuanxin couldn't help but want to laugh. At that time, Gui Jianxiao was just a shy little girl, but now she has grown into a woman who bravely pursues love.
"This... this is not good, right?" Gui Jianxiao's ears turned red, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito. Her heart was full of contradictions and struggles. She wanted to pursue love, but was afraid of being rejected and laughed at.
"You don't take the initiative? I think my aunt is also interested in him. Do you want to see him become my uncle?" Lu Xuanxin teased her deliberately, with a sly light in her eyes. She was obviously using provocation to inspire the courage and determination of Gui Jianxiao.
"Ah? But my aunt is so outstanding, how can I compete with her?" Gui Jianxiao's voice was full of helplessness and loss. It was obvious that he was very unconfident in his own competitiveness.
"Please! You are..." Before Lu Xuan finished speaking, she suddenly lifted the car curtain and glanced at the pedestrians on the street. Her eyes flashed with a trace of solemnity and vigilance, and she obviously noticed something unusual.
"Xuanxin, what's wrong?" Lin Xiaofeng was the first to notice her abnormality. In fact, he had been paying attention to them. Although the two seemed to be whispering, the people in the car had spiritual perception and could hear if they wanted to. He didn't want to eavesdrop, but seeing them glance at him from time to time, he listened to a few words out of curiosity. Now seeing Lu Xuanxin suddenly become so alert, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous and worried.
"The demonic energy is strong! Stop the car!" Before Lu Xuanxin finished speaking, she had already jumped out of the car. Her figure flashed across the street like a flash of lightning and instantly disappeared into the crowd. Seeing this, Lin Xiaofeng and others were horrified and quickly jumped out of the car to chase her.
Lu Xuanxin followed the direction of the evil spirit and soon caught a young man in green clothes in front of her. The young man looked at her innocently, with doubt and confusion in his eyes. He didn't seem to understand why he was suddenly caught by this beautiful woman.
Passersby also stopped and watched Lu Xuanxin and the young man talking. Some of them were surprised at Lu Xuanxin's beauty and courage, while others were puzzled and questioned her behavior. However, no matter how they talked, they could not stop Lu Xuanxin's firm steps and determination. She stared at the young man in blue, with a sharp light in her eyes, as if she wanted to see through all his secrets.
Lu Xuanxin stood there quietly, her eyes sweeping around the passers-by. Their faces had different expressions, some were in a hurry, some were leisurely, but all of them revealed the triviality and ordinariness of life. However, when she turned her head to look at the captured young man, her eyes slightly condensed. The young man's eyes flickered, shining, as if hiding some unknown secret, which suddenly gave her an ominous premonition.
Sure enough, the young man began to struggle in fear and shouted loudly: "Are you... the legendary demon?" His voice was full of fear and despair, as if he was facing an inescapable nightmare.
As soon as the word "demon" came out, the people around were all shocked and retreated, with angry and terrified expressions on their faces. They seemed to be touched by the fear deep in their hearts by these two words, and began to scream and curse uncontrollably. A woman picked up something at hand and threw it at Lu Xuanxin, cursing loudly: "The devil's accomplice! Let the young master go, get out of our Yangcheng!" Her voice was sharp and piercing, full of fear of the unknown and evil.
"This kind of devil deserves to be cut into pieces! I must kill you!" a sturdy man roared, his eyes were bloodshot, as if consumed by anger and hatred.
"Kill him!" Passersby echoed and started throwing things. They seemed to be driven by some emotion and lost their reason and ability to think.
However, Lu Xuanxin just stood there calmly, neither hiding nor speaking, letting things hit her. Her eyes were calm and deep, as if she could see through everything. Her clothes seemed to have the function of protecting the owner, and not a single speck of dust stained them, as if there was an invisible barrier separating her from the disturbances of the outside world.
