"It's really a bit strange. We rushed to Liucheng as soon as we received the reply from Anyway, and Hill actually knew about it a long time ago and made arrangements in advance. This is indeed a bit unbelievable."

Yun Congfei also had doubts, but now that they were following their team after all, it was not easy to discuss such matters directly.

"Follow them first, and if there are any problems, just adapt to the situation."

Soon, the three of them followed them from the logistics to a relatively large house.

"This is too powerful..."

Yun Congfei couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion, but Lu Ning looked at the house in front of him, but felt that there was nothing to make a fuss about.

"Liucheng is famous for not being controlled by the king's law. Judging from the Xie family's house, it has been around for at least several decades. One person, one family can prosper and build a huge house, but it is possible to put such a magnificent The house has been guarded for decades without being destroyed, this is where it is really capable.”

Ning Caier added, and after hearing Ning Caier's words, Lu Ning already had a general impression of the Xie family's abilities.

"This is our house, and my father is waiting for you inside."

After Xie Tiandao finished speaking, he didn't intend to go in.

"Aren't you going with us?"

"Father's house is not something we can enter. Father only invited you, so we can only wait outside."

"What a strange rule."

After speaking, Lu Ning stepped into the courtyard.

The atmosphere in the house is exactly the same as that of the outside world.
The outside world is stuffy and lifeless, and you can feel a sense of oppression just by standing there.

But after entering the yard, there is plenty of sunshine, and there are still many flowers and plants swollen in the yard. Feeling the fragrance of birds and flowers, one's mood suddenly calms down.

Looking inside along the corridor, through the back of the front yard, there is an old man trimming his potted plants inside, looking very contented.

"This scene is considered a spectacle in Liucheng."

Yun Congfei walked over first, walked up to the old man and asked:
"Excuse me, senior, is Hebi Taoist?"

Yun Congfei asked, but the man didn't intend to stop what he was doing. While pruning the potted plants, he replied casually: "The person Murong Lan said has hidden a powerhouse in the state of transformation. Where?"

Hearing this, Yun Congfei quickly pushed Lu Ning in front of Taoist Hebi.

Looking at Taoist Hebi, Lu Ning couldn't think of anything to say for a while.

The strength of this Taoist Hebi has at least reached the state of transforming gods, and his lies will definitely be exposed in front of him.

"It's you?"

Taoist Hebi finally stopped what he was doing, looked at Lu Ning for a while and said, "It's interesting, come in with me."

Taoist Hebi walked towards the side hall as he spoke.

"The others are waiting outside."

Although Ning Cai'er had a worried face, after receiving Lu Ning's affirmative nod, she decided to check the situation first.

After following the Taoist Hebi to the side hall, before Lu Ning could speak, the Taoist Hebi directly picked up a cup of tea and asked, "You obviously have good strength, why do you lie like this?"

Sure enough, this guy saw through Lu Ning's lies at a glance.

"Well... there is indeed a reason for this, I can't let them know my strength."

Lu Ning scratched his head. Now that the other party has seen his details clearly, there is no point in lying any more. Fortunately, he can just tell the truth.

"So what? What's your purpose?"

"I have no purpose."

Lu Ning shook his head.

"I came to Liucheng just to prevent Murong Lan from becoming suspicious. I hope you can help me keep this secret, senior."

"I'm not a helpful person."

Sure enough, a person who can get along so well in a place like Liucheng naturally cannot be a kind person.

"If you help me, I owe you a favor. If you need my help with anything in the future, I promise you will never refuse!"

"Okay! I have a favor I need you to do now, I wonder if you would like it?"

"..."

Lu Ning was speechless for a while, cooperating with this guy and bringing himself here for this.

"Since I promised you something, you can just say that I will never refuse anything that is within my ability."

"Okay! Then you go to Xie Tiandao and say that I asked you to assist him in carrying out mission four, and he will tell you everything by then."

Lu Ning never thought that the first thing he did when he arrived in Liucheng was to help others to work for free...

"Come out, come out!"

When Ning Cai'er saw Lu Ning and Taoist Hebi coming out, she couldn't help feeling a little excited.

"How is Taoist, his body should be fine?"

"There's really nothing wrong with it, but there's something I can't check, and I have to ask a friend of mine, I'll let Xie Tiandao take him there later, but which friend of mine likes leisure and doesn't like crowded places environment, so you two just stay here and help me take care of the yard."

Everyone said so, Ning Cai'er had nothing to do, the two stayed here alone, and Lu Ning found Xie Tiandao immediately after leaving the yard.

"You finally came out! What did your father say to you!"

Xie Tiandao's look of anticipation made Lu Ning somewhat incomprehensible.

It’s fine if Taoist Hebi doesn’t let his son in, why does Xie Tiandao pay so much attention to Taoist Hebi’s words...

"I didn't say anything, just let me carry out mission four with you."

"Ah? This..."

Xie Tiandao seemed to have some unspeakable secrets.

"Why, is there any inconvenience?"

"I can't say it's inconvenient, but this task four is very dangerous, I just don't know your strength..."

"Don't worry, since your father asked me to come, you don't need to worry about strength."

After Lu Ning said that, Xie Tiandao had nothing to do, but when Xie Tiandao turned his head to lead the way, Lu Ning heard this guy mutter carefully.

"Since it was sent by my father, I must ensure his safety when carrying out the mission..."

With that said, the two headed towards the very center of Liucheng together. On the way, Xie Tiandao gave Lu Ning a rough explanation of the task content of the fourth task.
