"Sir, I have long advised you not to be a pushover, but you were deceived by superficial things and insisted on bringing those people back." The servant Ah Hai had a sad face, and deep worry was revealed between his brows. He stood by Fan Wei's bed, looking at his son's pale face and scars, his heart full of resentment and confusion.

"Alas - all the spiritual stones we worked so hard to save went into their stomachs, and in the end they caused you to be seriously injured." Ah Hai became more and more excited, with a hint of tears in his voice, "Sir, you are so soft-hearted. Have you forgotten the injury you suffered five years ago? Did you really endure those five years of hardship?"

Five years ago, Fan Wei was the pride of the family. He had reached the peak of spiritual realm at the age of 40 and had a promising future. However, a sudden attack destroyed all his meridians and dantian, and his cultivation level declined instead of improving. His status also plummeted. In the past five years, he endured humiliation and experienced the ups and downs of life.

Ah Hai looked at Fan Wei's painful and resolute face, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions. He felt that the young master had suffered too much injustice, and he couldn't help crying, and he didn't even notice that the young master's voice gradually became weaker and finally died.

"Forget it, I'm still alive." Fan Wei felt the pain slowly subside, and it took a long time for it to stabilize. He opened his eyes with difficulty and spoke in a hoarse voice.

Ah Hai's crying gave him a headache, so he could only ask in a hoarse voice: "Uh - Ah Hai, are you okay? Why are you crying?"

Ah Hai finally reacted and quickly stepped forward to support him: "Sir, are you okay? I'm worried about you!"

"Help me back to my room." Fan Wei's voice was still hoarse, and he asked Ah Hai to help him into the house. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a space ring on the table left by Lu Xuanxin and the others after the banquet.

"Sir, this..." Ah Hai picked up the ring and handed it to Fan Wei. His eyes revealed doubt and uneasiness, as if he was very puzzled by the appearance of this ring.

Fan Wei looked at the ring carefully, closed his eyes and pondered for a while. The mysterious figures of Lu Xuanxin and others flashed through his mind, as well as their meaningful smiles when they left.

"Young Master?" Ah Hai asked doubtfully, looking at Fan Wei's furrowed brows and thoughtful expression with worry on his face.

"It's okay. Ah Hai, my meridians and dantian have recovered. The elixirs and spirit stones in the ring are enough for me to return to the spiritual realm." Fan Wei opened his eyes and said to Ah Hai with a complicated expression.

"Those people are not bad people." He thought of the past and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions. Back then, he was a genius in the family, but now he has ended up like this. However, this unintentional action today actually gave him hope to recover his cultivation.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that those people who came before, whether they were invited or invited by the City Lord's Mansion, were not afraid at all. It turned out that there must be a master among them to help. Fortunately, he did not have evil intentions, otherwise he would probably have been a pile of yellow earth by now.

"Sir, what did you say?" Ah Hai couldn't believe his ears. He stared at Fan Wei with wide eyes, as if he was seeing a miracle.

"This matter must be kept secret." Fan Wei's eyes were deep as he instructed Ah Hai, "You go out and quietly inquire about the movements in the City Lord's Mansion." He knew Qian Bin's character very well. He would definitely cause trouble for those people, but he didn't know how they would respond.

On the other side, Lu Xuanxin and his group attracted countless gazes and discussions on their way to the City Lord's Mansion with Qian Bin.

"Look, isn't that Fan Wei? Why did he let him go?" Passersby were talking about it.

"Haha! It's not that they released it, but they were beaten so hard that they had to release it?" someone said gloatingly.

"Guess if Fan Wei can succeed this time?" someone else asked curiously.

"How can it be so fast? I'm afraid the hand will be hit back before it even reaches out." Someone sneered.

"What a pity for such a good opportunity." Someone said regretfully.

"That loser wanted to hunt for beauty but ended up being hunted instead." Someone mocked.

"Is he more disabled by the beating? Or is he dead?" someone asked with concern. However, their concern was mixed with a bit of gloating and indifference.

"Looking at their expressions, they don't seem to be forced. Instead, they seem to be going there voluntarily." Someone noticed that Lu Xuanxin and the others did not look like they were forced.

"A man who knows the current situation is a hero! Otherwise, if you offend the City Lord's Mansion, it will be difficult to leave the city..." someone sighed. However, this sigh revealed a bit of helplessness and the cruelty of reality.

"Maybe they are from a sect, specifically hunting young men..." someone speculated. However, this speculation was tinged with fear and uneasiness. Because in this world, the power of the sect is extremely strong, they have their own rules and ways of doing things, which often make it impossible for people to resist and escape.

However, these discussions and speculations could not affect Lu Xuanxin and his companions' mood and pace. They walked forward without paying attention to the looks and comments of others, because they were only filled with curiosity about the unknown and a desire for delicious food.

"Big brother, you just said there was food, I'm so hungry now." When passing by a restaurant, Feng Ling touched her stomach and blinked her eyes and said to Qian Bin. Her voice was clear and pleasant, like the sound of nature, making people want to fulfill her wish.

The most important thing in the world is eating! Is there anything more important than filling your stomach? This is the belief that Feng Ling has always believed in. At this moment, she is looking at Qian Bin with her eager eyes, expecting to be satisfied with a delicious meal.

"I want to eat delicious food, too." Ah Man also said coolly. Although his voice was a little cold, it revealed a childlike innocence and expectation. Because he also knew that nothing in this world could make people feel happier and more satisfied than delicious food.

Qian Bin's smile froze. He looked at the expectant eyes and innocent faces of these children, and couldn't help feeling helpless and amused. He wanted to find an excuse to ask them to eat to delay time, but now it seemed that it wouldn't work. Because these children had obviously taken his words seriously and were looking forward to having a delicious meal!

"Haha, no problem! When we get to the City Lord's Mansion, I will make sure you guys have a good meal!" Qian Bin forced a smile. He could only calm down the kids first, and then think of ways to delay time. After all, he didn't want these kids to disrupt his plan!

Lu Xuanxin touched Feng Ling's head and said to Qian Bin with a smile: "Mr. Qian, my sister..." There was a hint of apology and helplessness in her words, because she knew that Feng Ling would make a big fuss once she got hungry!

"It's okay. The food has been prepared in the mansion and we can eat soon." Qian Bin said hurriedly. He just wanted to take these children to the City Lord's Mansion as soon as possible, and then find a way to solve their problems. After all, he couldn't let these children ruin his good deeds!

Feng Ling curled her lips, although she was a little dissatisfied, she didn't say anything else. She knew that the most important thing now was to fill her stomach, so she could only bear it for the time being.

On the way, they met many strong people, all in a hurry. It seems that in this city, everyone has their own goals and pursuits, and they are busy for life. And Lu Xuanxin and his people are just an insignificant part of this city. But even so, they also have their own dreams and pursuits, and their own stories and legends.

Suddenly, a figure rushed out and blocked their way. It was a young man, dressed gorgeously, with a handsome face and a look of surprise and confusion in his eyes.

"Sister?" He looked at Lu Xuanxin in surprise and shouted. There was a hint of uncertainty and confusion in his voice, as if he was very unfamiliar and puzzled with the person in front of him.

Lu Xuanxin frowned at the person who was blocking her way. She didn't know this person, and she didn't know why he called her sister. Her heart was full of doubts and vigilance, because the appearance of this person didn't seem so simple.

Qian Bin stepped forward and looked at the young man arrogantly: "Who are you? I am the young lord of this city. What can I do for you?" There was a hint of threat and arrogance in his voice, and it was obvious that he was very dissatisfied and wary of this sudden appearance.

The young man bowed to Qian Bin and said, "So you are Mr. Qian. This is my fiancée, and that is her sister." He pointed at Tian Ying, but his eyes were moving between Lu Xuanxin and Yun Yan'er. His eyes revealed a complex emotion, as if he was very curious and concerned about the two people in front of him.

Qian Bin glared at him: "Who are you? How dare you meddle in my business?" There was a bit of anger and dissatisfaction in his voice. It was obvious that he was very annoyed and dissatisfied with the appearance of this young man.

The young man's face darkened and he was about to take action, but was stopped by a woman beside him. She was a beautiful woman, wearing a white dress, with a cold face and a wise and calm look in her eyes. She looked at Qian Bin and the others with a frown and said, "Where are you going, sister? Come with me." There was some worry and concern in her voice, and it was obvious that she was very concerned about Tianying's safety.

Tianying looked at the woman innocently and said, "Sister? Why are you here?" She had already had some guesses in her mind, and she didn't expect to meet here. She looked at the woman with a kind and familiar look in her eyes, as if there was some special connection and bond between them.

The woman's eyes revealed a kind of tenderness and care when she looked at Tianying. She whispered, "I came to find you. I didn't expect to meet you here. Are you okay?" There was some concern and tenderness in her voice, which made Tianying feel very warm and at ease.

"We just arrived and haven't found a place to rest yet. Young Master Qian invited us to the City Lord's Mansion." Tian Ying said innocently, looking at Qian Bin with a look of expectation and curiosity. She didn't know Qian Bin's background or origin, but she thought he seemed to be an interesting person and seemed to be very rich.

"In that case, Mr. Qian, do you mind if we go together?" At this time, a man waving a fan came over. He was wearing gorgeous clothes, had a handsome face, and his eyes revealed a cynical atmosphere. He looked at Qian Bin and others and said with a smile, "I am Mu Shaowen, this is Dongfang Mo, and this is the beautiful lady Bai Ningyue." There was a bit of complacency and boasting in his introduction, and it was obvious that he was very proud and satisfied with his identity and status.

Qian Bin's face became even gloomier. He looked at Bai Ningyue, Dongfang Mo, and the old man behind them, and felt the aura of the strong. He didn't dare to attack easily. He didn't know the origins and details of these people, but it was obvious that they were not simple people. His heart was full of vigilance and alertness, because he knew that in this city, the strong are respected, and the weak can only be bullied and manipulated. And he is still

"Oh, my family's small business is not presentable, please don't laugh at me." Mu Shaowen had a smile on his face, a bit of teasing in his eyes, and a sense of humility in his words. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and there was a smile in the corners of his eyes, as if he was talking about an insignificant little thing, but the gleam in his eyes revealed his inner cunning and confidence.

When the people around heard this, they kept muttering in their hearts: If this is considered a small business, how can we survive? They looked at each other, secretly marveling at the strength of the Mu family, but they didn't dare to show it. They could only force a smile and echo Mu Shaowen's words.

"Oh, isn't this Mr. Mu? I've heard of your name for a long time!" When Qian Bin heard that it was Mu Shaowen, his face immediately changed, and his attitude was so enthusiastic. He thought that as long as he could establish a relationship with the Mu family, sending a few beauties would be nothing. He hurried forward, with a smile on his face, as if he had met a long-lost relative.

"Hello, Mr. Mu. I am Li Xing from the Li family." "Mr. Mu, Zhao Feng is polite." ... A group of young masters rushed to get close to him, and Mu Shaowen responded one by one, smiling like a flower. His eyes wandered among the people, and sometimes a sharp light flashed, as if he was measuring the value of each person. This is probably the social skill of a businessman. He can always easily make people feel friendly, but inadvertently reveal his majesty.
