After rebirth, there will always be a traitor, Xiao Xiangben Master

Chapter 5 The extraordinary city lord’s mansion

The next second, Shang Hexia fell out of the door, and the door was closed tightly.

Only one sentence came out from inside: "Master doesn't like to be around others when sleeping."

Shang Hexia rubbed his buttocks and stood up: "Master's ability to lift people three meters away with one finger, I have to learn from it."

……

The next day is dawn.

People from the City Lord's Mansion came to the inn and saw them heading straight towards Dou Yue's room. Shang He crossed his arms and sat under the banister to block their way.

"Is something wrong?"

The leader, who looked like a civil servant, bowed politely: "Haha, the heroes killed the bear demon yesterday. The city lord was very happy and invited the heroes to the mansion for a banquet. It just so happens that today is the city lord's birthday, so the heroes must come."

Dou Yue opened the door: "Okay, we'll go there immediately."

Dou Yuedao was somewhat interested. She wanted to see why this bear demon had such courage and dared to invite them to the city lord's mansion?

Those who came to the city lord's mansion were not only Dou Yue, Shang Hexia and the others, but also the people from Yongxian Pavilion and other monks from unknown small forces.

Dou Yue's stunning appearance attracted the attention of many people. They thought it was a luxury to take another look at her. Why did a big shot like Dongfang Dianzun come to a small place like Whispering City?

Shang Hexia walked silently beside Dou Yue, blocking those fiery gazes. He said helplessly: "Master, why don't you wear a veil next time? You are so good-looking and I am worried about you."

Dou Yue glanced at him and left with the housekeeper.

Foreign guests sit in the courtyard, and distinguished guests sit in the hall.

Dou Yue and Shang Hexia were seated on the lower left side of the main seat. Sitting across from them was Deacon Qiu from Yongxian Pavilion, but Lan Changning was not seen.

"Hahahaha, everyone has come from afar, my Whispering City is really glowing. Thank you for getting rid of the monsters that have been rampant in my city for a long time. Everyone must be happy today!"

The city lord stood up, bowed and smiled respectfully. He could not offend anyone present.

He was about forty years old and had a thin build. When Dou Yue saw him, a flash of doubt flashed in her beautiful eyes.

In this life, why is this person the real city lord and not the bear demon pretending to be?

A bright night pearl appeared in Dou Yue's palm: "Today is the city lord's birthday. I hope the city lord will accept this small gift."

The city lord looked flattered, walked quickly to Dou Yue, bent slightly and took the night pearl in Dou Yue's hand with both hands: "Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Majesty."

Dou Yue: "Since the bear demon has been eliminated and the feast has been prepared, I won't bother you any more. Hexia, let's go."

The city lord must have known that he couldn't keep a big shot like Dou Yue, so he sent him away personally.

After the two left the city lord's mansion, they saw Dou Yue starting to wield the sword. Shang Hexia said, "Master, are we really leaving?"

Dou Yue looked sideways at him: "The bear demon has been eliminated, do you still want to stay in Whirlpool City and be lazy?"

Shang Hexia chuckled: "Disciple, no matter how dare you be lazy, you have to obey Master."

After the two of them left with their swords, they poked half of their heads out of the alley to watch them disappear from sight, and then hurried back to resume their lives.

The city lord was drinking with his guests, and the servant bent down and whispered in his ear: "City lord, they have left."

The city lord still smiled and said: "Did you really see clearly?"

"See clearly, you can't be wrong."

At this time, another servant came to the city lord's ears: "Sir, the monks in Yongxian Pavilion have had their meal. Their people have checked the house and have left now."

The city lord nodded, patted his belly with a smile, and said in a loud voice: "Everyone, eat and drink first. I am infected with the cold and cannot drink too much. I will rest for a while."

The hustle and bustle continues.

……

Dou Yue and Shang Hexia took a circle in the air and came back.

In the tallest restaurant in the whirling city, the woman looked in the direction of the city lord's palace, and her delicate jade fingers tapped on the bracelet.

Shang Hexia pushed open the door and walked straight in from outside the house with his long legs: "Master, I found out. Lan Changning changed his appearance and lurked in the City Lord's Mansion. After searching around, there seemed to be no results. He and the people from Yongxian Pavilion Back to the inn.”

Dou Yue made a movement in her hands and stared at Shang Hexia with a slightly majestic gaze.

The latter smiled coquettishly: "Master, why are you looking at me like this?"

"From now on, you need to knock on the door before entering or exiting the teacher's house."

Shang He smiled playfully: "Oh, yes, disciples must pay attention next time."

Dou Yue continued to look at the high-rise buildings of the City Lord's Mansion: "The bear demon has appeared in the City Lord's Mansion. You will follow me as my master when we enter the Mansion tonight."

"it is good."

Today, Dou Yue naturally knew that someone was secretly watching them, and pretended to leave to let the people in the City Lord's Mansion relax their guard. When they sneaked into the City Lord's Mansion at night, the security was not very tight.

Dou Yue relied on the memory of her previous life to bring Shang He down to the study room of the City Lord's Mansion. There was no one else in the study room except for a flickering oil lamp.

There is a dark room in the study, which is where the bear demon hides. There are poisonous miasma and mechanisms inside. In the previous life, his Dongfang Palace disciples died under this poisonous miasma and mechanism that could kill fifth-level spiritual monks.

In order to save Lan Changning, she was not only injured, but also caused the death of her other disciples.

That was the first time she was injured in her previous life, and the funny thing was that she was injured because of that white-eyed wolf.

"Master, this oil lamp is quite unique."

Shang Hexia's words brought back Dou Yue's thoughts. The thought of the past affected her mood somewhat. Dou Yue was inexplicably irritated: "What are you looking at? Don't move."

Shang Hexia immediately obediently put his hands behind his back and followed Dou Yue step by step, with a helpless smile in his eyes.

Gee, this woman can change her face so quickly. She even has to be careful with her breathing when she's in a bad mood.

There were portraits of women hanging everywhere in the study. Dou Yue walked around the study, holding a pill and handing it to the man beside her. Shang He took it and threw it into his mouth.

Is this person so sincere that he puts it into his mouth without even asking, and he is not afraid of poison?

Dou Yue paused in her footsteps and stopped in front of a portrait of a woman who was not considered beautiful. This painting was special because the quality of the paper was poor.

If Dou Yue remembered correctly, the woman in this portrait was the bear demon's human wife and the center of entry.

When Dou Yue's hand was about to touch the portrait, she paused for a moment, then retracted her hand and took Shang Hexia to hide it.

Not long after, the study door was opened, and someone from Yongxian Pavilion came in.

This time Lan Changning, who was dressed in white and looked elegant, was also there.

Lan Changning looked around: "Master, there must be a mechanism in this study."

Elder Lan Song of Yongxian Pavilion curled up his lips, pinched a black beard and walked around the study. Within a moment, he found the scroll of a woman in the center.

His hand touched the scroll, and in the next moment a white light condensed into a whirlpool door out of thin air. Lan Song raised his eyebrows proudly: "Let's go!"

After they left, the two people who had been hiding reappeared in the study.

Seeing that Dou Yue was unmoved, Shang He asked, "Master, won't you go in?"

Dou Yue simply sat down and read the book with great interest: "Don't worry, let them explore the road first."
