This is the feeling.
It loves it very much.
Like suddenly encountering its dream lover.
"I want to sleep holding you today. You are my life!" Longevity wraps the slender Tang Blade in the quilt, and two legs clutch it directly.
Just like that, the night passed.
This night, Longevity lived very happily.
Also very satisfied.
After getting up, Longevity thought about having a meal with his parents, but they were all busy, so Longevity could only go out to eat a feast.
Rebirth into another world, eating is also very important.
When walking on the street, everyone was talking about the Tu Family.
And discussing the Feng and Liang Families.
Ordinary people were just sighing, but cultivators were more surprised than one another.
Because they knew the power of the Feng and Liang Families, they thought last night would be a heavy defeat for the Tu Family with massive losses.
Who would have thought that the Tu Family not only did not suffer much loss, but managed to capture all the top experts of the Feng and Liang Families overnight.
"The Tu Family hid deeply indeed!"
"Despite having the power to annihilate the Feng and Liang Families, it has been hiding all along, which is truly terrifying. What’s even funnier is that the Feng and Liang Families always thought they could defeat the Tu Family."
Amidst the chatter, Longevity returned to Black Street.
But upon returning to Black Street, Longevity found someone standing outside the shop early in the morning.
An hour ago.
White Emperor City.
Shui Xun was tightly covering her mouth with both hands, curled up deep in the alley.
She didn’t dare to breathe, but she couldn’t help wanting to, so her hands covered her mouth tighter and tighter.
Unlike usual, her eyes were releasing terror, and tears were continuously flowing from both corners.
Like not daring to breathe, she also didn’t dare to make any sound.
Outside the alley where she hid, a team of soldiers from the City Lord’s Mansion were holding a portrait as they walked and asked passersby.
"Have you seen her?"
"How about you, have you seen her?"
Passersby shook their heads one after another, but the soldiers kept asking everyone without a trace of laziness.
The person in the portrait was naturally Shui Xun.
However, this was not a search notice, but rather a wanted poster.
It was only fifteen minutes after the soldiers walked past the alley that Shui Xun dared to run out of the alley, and then buried her head as she kept running along the edge of the streets, finally rushing into a small street, and then knocked hard on the door of a desolate courtyard beside the street.
The door quickly opened, and Shui Xun rushed in.
After rushing into the courtyard, Shui Xun finally dared to take a deep breath.
"I knew you’d definitely come here. Shui Xun, are you okay? How are uncle and the others?" A young man who had once braved difficulties together with her at the Exotic Beast Battlefield enquired with concern.
His name was Yuanmu.
A person from the Yuan Family of White Emperor City.
One of Shui Xun’s few good friends.
"I don’t know, I only know they were all taken away by people from the City Lord’s Mansion." Shui Xun’s eyes brimmed with tears, and she almost collapsed.
Yuan Mu reached out and patted Shui Xun’s shoulder, whispering: "It’s okay, everything will pass. Uncle and the others will be protected by fate. As long as you don’t get caught, the people from the City Lord’s Mansion surely won’t harm uncle and the others."
"I don’t know what to do." Shui Xun was bewildered.
The City Lord’s Mansion, it ruled White Emperor City.
If they wanted to eradicate the Shui Family, what could the Shui Family do?
Her father and the others had no power to resist, let alone her.
Yuan Mu busily said: "Here’s the plan, you stay here for now. Only seven of us know about this place, so it’s relatively safe. I’ll go discuss with my father and the others, and get some food for you. Oh, and if the knocking rhythm isn’t right, just hide and don’t open the door!"
Shui Xun nodded, "Yuan Mu, thank you!"
Yuan Mu smiled helplessly, "All I can do is help you with this. As for what to do, I don’t know either. The City Lord’s Mansion covers White Emperor City completely, it’s almost impossible to rescue uncle and the others from their grasp."
Not to mention the Shui Family.
Even if all the families in White Emperor City were united, they still couldn’t match the City Lord’s Mansion.
Moreover, the City Lord’s Mansion had valid reasons to deal with the Shui Family, who would dare to stand up for the Shui Family now?
Yuan Mu reminded again: "Shui Xun, whatever you do, don’t think about handing over the Black Street Order, everything started because of it, if you hand it over now, uncle and the others are really done for. If possible, go to Black Street once more."
"But I have no money left." Shui Xun was very desperate.
Yuan Mu’s brows furrowed tightly, "But now, to save uncle and you, Black Street might be the only hope. How about this, I’ll go back and steal some money!"
"Wouldn’t that..."
"Don’t worry about me now, think more about yourself. I’ll go contact others, and we’ll gather some money so that you can go to Black Street again."
"Yuan Mu, thank you, thank you everyone."
Shui Xun immediately began to feel hopeful.
If Yuan Mu and the others manage to get money, perhaps there really might be a way out.
If it’s that powerful Black Street Merchant, even the City Lord of White Emperor City might not be able to withstand one stroke from him.
"You go back inside, I’ll go back once." Yuan Mu carefully opened the door, then stealthily walked out.
Shui Xun returned to the house, closed the door tightly, then curled up behind the door.
Scenes from last night began to flash in her mind.
Family.
Clan members.
Even the family servants who had served the Shui Family for decades.
They fell one by one under the knives of the City Lord’s Mansion’s people.
This scene was even more terrifying than the depths of the Exotic Beast Battlefield, more despairing than being in the caves of the Exotic Beast Battlefield.
Why did it all happen?
Just a few days ago, her father was still having drinks and laughing with them like old friends.
Was the scene from last night fake?
Or was the drinking and laughing scene fake?
Before long, knocking on the door suddenly resounded.
Bang!
Bang!
The knocking sound was not only out of rhythm but also very forceful.
As Shui Xun was about to stand up to check, the door was violently kicked open.
The people from the City Lord’s Mansion peered through the gap in the window into Shui Xun’s line of sight, scaring Shui Xun as she quickly covered her mouth because she almost screamed out of fright.
"Search!"
The cold voice sounded outside the door.
Shui Xun quickly retreated, looking left and right, at a loss.
As the footsteps outside got closer, Shui Xun took out the Black Street Order.
If she didn’t go to Black Street, she might die!
As Shui Xun entered Black Street, the house door was violently pushed open, several people from the City Lord’s Mansion walked in and started searching everywhere, even tapping the walls repeatedly to confirm there were no secret rooms before leaving the house.
At this time, Shui Xun was already in Black Street.
This time visiting, the dark streets were no longer so frightening.
Seeing the light not far away, Shui Xun instead felt a bit of reassurance.
Upon arriving outside the shop, it was empty.
So, Shui Xun stood there, waiting quietly.
When Longevity returned to Black Street, he happened to see this scene, looking at the dirty Shui Xun, the goddess-like beauty she had was gone, and he couldn’t help but feel a bit of pain.
If it weren’t for the intact clothes, if it weren’t for the aura still there, at this moment, Shui Xun was no different from the beggars by the street?
"Welcome, guest, back to Black Street." Longevity courteously greeted, and then walked into the shop.
"Thank you." Shui Xun replied softly.
Longevity asked, "What does the guest need this time?"
"I... have no money." Shui Xun didn’t dare to say she was here to hide from danger.
Longevity smiled and said: "Don’t forget, guests, money is just one way to trade. As long as you have needs, you can buy with anything. For example, your life time, or your beauty, which many women envy..."
Longevity could see many glows on Shui Xun.
This represents that her value was still abundant.
Especially her beauty, it was extremely valuable.
Upon hearing these words, Shui Xun’s eyes immediately released a shine, then she asked, "Senior, can really anything be used?"
"Of course." Longevity smiled and then invited Shui Xun inside, "Why don’t you come in and sit, we’ll chat slowly. If you need, I can clean for you."
