"Master, didn't we say we were going to set off immediately? Why are we going back to the City Lord's Mansion?"

Qin Lan supported Ji Xiuzhu and whispered in her ear.

Ji Xiuzhu did not reply, but Mo Yunyu's words kept echoing in his mind.

It turned out that after Mo Yunyu said that to her, he didn't intend to say anything more and wanted to see Ji Xiuzhu's reaction.

But Qin Lan was thinking of taking Ji Xiuzhu away with her. After all, he had burned down someone else's Mengqi Pavilion and then showed up in front of someone else's pavilion in a swaggering manner and refused to leave, which was simply too arrogant.

So, Qin Lan stepped forward and tried to pick up Ji Xiuzhu horizontally.

But as soon as he walked up to Ji Xiuzhu, Mo Yunyu took the lead and picked up Ji Xiuzhu.

Then, he left without saying anything.

Seeing this, Qin Lan was about to summon the Thousand Talisman Tablets, but then she remembered that they were lost.

So he summoned a long sword and followed Mo Yunyu on the sword.

Along the way, Ji Xiuzhu didn't dare to speak. After all, Mo Yunyu's words just now made her feel a little nervous.

Although she didn't have to be afraid with her current level of cultivation, the Mo Yunyu in front of her had tens of thousands of years of cultivation experience. Even if he gave her his spiritual power, his pitch-black demonic aura would still make her terrified.

She was really afraid that if she made this man angry, he would really execute her on the spot.

Feeling the strangeness of the person in his arms, Mo Yunyu said calmly: "Master, why are you shaking? Are you afraid of me?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Xiuzhu lowered his head even lower.

Don’t be afraid, there will be ghosts if you are not afraid!

Although he was scared to death, Ji Xiuzhu pretended to be calm on the surface: "Master, I am blind, who knows if you will throw me down from here?"

Looking at Ji Xiuzhu's quibbling, Mo Yunyu smiled.

Just because Ji Xiuzhu couldn’t see it, didn’t mean he couldn’t see it.

At this moment, Ji Xiuzhu was obviously frightened, but he still pretended to be calm.

Only his master could do such a thing as covering one's ears and stealing the bell.

Mo Yunyu hugged Ji Xiuzhu tightly and whispered, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. I said that just now only because you made me angry. I won't talk to you like that again in the future, I swear."

Ji Xiuzhu's body stiffened and he instantly wanted to look up at Mo Yunyu.

But when Ji Xiuzhu looked up, he found that he couldn't see.

"Master, I will take you back to the City Lord's Mansion now. You are the one who made my engagement, and you should make it clear to Liu Hanyan that I do not want to marry Liu Shuqing. Although I don't know what Liu Hanyan said to you, please believe me. Liu Shuqing is not a good match for me."

Mo Yunyu spoke every word, and there was no longer the previous tension in his words. Instead, there was a hint of pleading and grievance.

Ji Xiuzhu listened to Mo Yunyu's words, thoughtfully.

Although she couldn't see Mo Yunyu's expression at the moment, every word he said touched her heart and made her feel sympathy.

She was already angry with Liu Hanyan, and now hearing Mo Yunyu resisting this marriage, as a parent, she should seek redress for her youngster.

Since Mo Yunyu has no interest in Liu Shuqing, she doesn't have to worry about anything else.

So she nodded at Mo Yunyu and uttered a faint "hmm" from her throat.

So, there was the scene where Qin Lan asked Ji Xiuzhu why he returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

Ji Xiuzhu raised her hand, and the Thousand Talismans appeared in her hand. She then handed it to Qin Lan and said, "Take the Thousand Talismans. If I know that you lose your magic weapon again, I will whip you!"

When Qin Lan saw that her Thousand Talismans Tablet had returned, she took it and kissed it happily again and again.

"Master, rest assured, I will never lose it again! But then again, what are we going to do when we return to the City Lord's Mansion?"

"break off an engagement."

Ji Xiuzhu's tone was flat, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or sad.

Qin Lan couldn't help but let out an "ah" when she heard that.

"Why? Second Senior Brother finally has a Taoist partner..."

Before Qin Lan finished speaking, Ji Xiuzhu sighed, "Of course it's your second senior brother's idea. If he doesn't want to, I don't want to force him. After all, you have to be more cautious about your second senior brother's happiness. Besides, I'm going to settle accounts with that old fox Liu Hanyan! If she dares to plot against you, I will definitely deal with her!"

Ji Xiuzhu originally wanted to give up on this matter because of their in-law relationship, and left with Qin Lan and Mo Yunyu.

But Mo Yunyu made it clear that he had no interest in Liu Shuqing, and she learned from Mu Yao that Qin Lan was captured and she, Liu Hanyan, was also involved, so she decided not to tolerate this.

The master and his two disciples stood in the hall of the City Lord's Mansion. If you didn't know, you would think they were here to cause trouble.

Although this is indeed the case.

When they arrived at the reception room, Liu Hanyan had been waiting there as if she knew Ji Xiuzhu would come back to settle the score.

"Oh, Your Majesty, do you know that I will come back?"

Ji Xiuzhu groped around and found a place to sit down. He could hear the sound of tea lids hitting teacups, but he could not hear a word from Liu Hanyan.

Seeing this, Ji Xiuzhu was not annoyed, but took out Mo Yunyu's marriage certificate from the storage bag and placed it on the table beside him.

After seeing the marriage certificate, a faint light flashed in Liu Hanyan's eyes.

She gently put down the tea bowl in her hand, then took out the other half of the marriage certificate covered with red cloth beside her and sighed deeply.

"Ever since Young Master Qin Lan was kidnapped, I knew this would happen. Sect Master Ji, is there really no room for negotiation?"

Ji Xiuzhu snorted coldly.

Seeing this, Liu Hanyan slowly spread out the marriage certificate in her hand, and then read through the certificates with Mo Yunyu's name on them one by one. Finally, she raised her hand reluctantly and threw it away. The marriage certificate instantly turned into ashes in mid-air.

Hearing the sound of fire, Ji Xiuzhu also threw the marriage certificate into the air. She waved her sword and the marriage certificate broke into pieces in an instant.

Just like Ji Xiuzhu's mood when he wanted to kill Liu Hanyan, he was torn into pieces.

Ji Xiuzhu turned to Mo Yunyu and said, "This matter is over. Do you have anything else to do?"

Mo Yunyu heard this and shook his head: "No, the rest is up to Master."

Ji Xiuzhu nodded and said softly, "In that case, the two of you should go out first and wait for your master outside the mansion."

Upon hearing this, Mo Yunyu and Qin Lan did not dare to disobey and went out obediently.

Only after the footsteps of Mo Yunyu and Qin Lan faded away and could no longer be heard did Ji Xiuzhu put on a cold expression.

"Tell me, who is the person behind you?"

Liu Hanyan was slightly stunned when she heard this, but then she returned to her normal state.

"I don't know what Master Ji is talking about. I am already the ruler of Hanyou Country. Who else can give me orders?"

Liu Hanyan spoke with full confidence, but Ji Xiuzhu didn't believe a word of it.

She flashed forward and came in front of Liu Hanyan.

Seeing this, Liu Hanyan reflexively raised her hands to cover her neck.

The movement was so fast that the strong wind from the palm blew up the hair on Ji Xiuzhu's forehead.

Ji Xiuzhu did not attack, but smiled faintly: "You reacted quite quickly, but I don't intend to strangle you this time, but..."

With a thud, the teacup fell to the ground.

And the sound of slapping was mixed in, crisp and loud.

Looking again, I saw that there were five distinct finger marks on Liu Hanyan's fair face.

"I was in decline back then, so I reluctantly left the child behind. But how did you treat him? I clearly told you to take good care of him, but you let him suffer like that.

Liu Hanyan, when we first met, I didn't bother with you because of the child's face. But you lied to me and even threw dirty water on the child. Do you think I'm stupid?

Since my second son has no interest in your princess, the alliance I made with you will be cancelled. This time, I will only give you a slap, as revenge for that child. From now on, the Shenyin Sect will have no more dealings with your Hanyou Country!

If we meet again next time, I will not let you off easily!"

After saying that, Ji Xiuzhu waved his hand and was about to leave.

But the next second, Liu Hanyan laughed like crazy: "Hahahaha, Ji Xiuzhu, do you really think that you can come back alive after going north this time? Don't dream! I originally wanted to give you the Soul-Concentrating Pearl because of our old relationship, so that you would turn back and save your life, but since you want to die, then I will wait to collect your body!"

After saying that, Liu Hanyan burst into laughter.

The laughter made Ji Xiuzhu's ears hurt.

Thinking of the Mind-Concentrating Pearl she mentioned, Ji Xiuzhu then remembered that Mo Yunyu asked her to return it to Liu Hanyan.

So she took out the mind-concentrating bead and threw it away.

The bead made a click and rolled towards Liu Hanyan who was laughing wildly.

"Your Majesty, please keep this thing for yourself. My disciple has no need for it. Since Your Majesty is unwilling to reveal the person behind the scenes, I will find out for myself. However, Your Majesty, please take good care of the people around you. If it happens again, I will not let you off easily."

After saying that, Ji Xiuzhu just raised his hand and waved it. Those who were hiding in the dark and wanted to shoot arrows at Ji Xiuzhu were blown away by Ji Xiuzhu's palm, and they all vomited blood and fell to the ground.

Although Ji Xiuzhu spared their lives, from now on, they can only live as ordinary people.
