There is already a beautiful woman sitting in the main hall. She looks to be in her 20s and has a round face. She must be the Thirteenth Lady.

Jian Ning went over to say hello and took out the pig-headed demon's letter to show her.

Madam Thirteen took it and glanced at it, then put it aside.

"Okay, I understand, Xiaoyu, take this girl to the guest room to rest, give her a maid's clothes, and follow me to attend the ceremony tomorrow."

"Yes, ma'am, come with me."

Jian Ning didn't expect things to go so smoothly. He quickly thanked her and retreated with the little girl.

It is said to be a guest room, but it is actually a very simple stone room, dark black. The furnishings inside are quite complete. The bedding is also quite clean.

Not long after Jian Ning entered, the little girl came back, holding a set of maid's clothes and handed them to her.

"These clothes are for you. Since there is a banquet in the house, there will be a lot of people. You'd better stay here and not go anywhere. Someone will bring the food to you when it's time."

"Okay, thank you! I understand."

It was impossible for Jian Ning not to go out and take a look, but she couldn't wait for her to leave in front of the little girl, so she locked the door from the inside, used an invisibility charm, and walked out through the wall.

Go specifically to crowded places. She was not familiar with this Demonic Abyss City at all. Listening to what others had to say would help her gain a general understanding of the place.

Just then, a group of people who looked like officials came over, and they were accompanied by people dressed as servants. She quickly followed them.

Since she concealed her aura, she was not afraid of these people discovering her.

He didn't dare to get too close. From a distance of more than two meters, I listened to the two leading demons talking non-stop about the city lord's marriage, which was quite grand. It shocked many people.

"Brother An, you know, I heard a rumor this time. Lord Qingcheng's marriage to a wife was just a cover. I heard that he found a forbidden place to go to the human race."

The chubby man with two small ears in front lowered his voice and whispered to the other person.

"Are you serious?" The tall man obviously didn't believe it.

"Absolutely reliable, Brother An, I'm just telling you, I haven't revealed anything about others.

It is said that the city lord held the ceremony this time because he wanted to gather the masters from the surrounding cities here to discuss how to open the door to the forbidden area.

If this passage to the human race can be opened smoothly, our lives will be beautiful in the future!

I don't want anything else. I have long heard that all the beauties of the human race are stunners, hundreds of times better than the tigress in my backyard. "

After the man finished speaking, he couldn't help but take a sip of saliva, wipe it with his hand, and looked around twice, as if he was afraid that what he said would be overheard by others.

I never thought that there would be people who could actually become invisible. And following them, eavesdropping on this secret.

"Brother Wang, do you know the specific location?"

"How could I know this? It's a secret. I guess the city lord will definitely discuss it with us after he holds the ceremony. We will know then. Brother An, you don't have to be impatient."

They were not in a hurry, Jian Ning was listening from behind and wanted to know how to get back right away. I was afraid that I might have missed something, so I quickly moved forward to get closer.

Unexpectedly, just these two steps would lead to bad things. The tall man suddenly sniffed and looked directly in Jian Ning's direction.

"Who? Come out to me!"

Let me go, is this nose so smart? The main body can't be a mouse! Jian Ning complained in her heart and quickly backed away, not letting him catch his trace.

"Brother An, what's wrong? Why didn't I see anything?" The short and fat man looked around. Except for their entourage and the servant, there was no one else.

"I smelled a strange scent just now. It seemed to be the human race! Now the smell disappeared again." The tall man was also confused and sniffed twice more.

"How is that possible? Brother An, don't listen to the wind. You are so suspicious today. Do you think you are tired of living? Come in quickly, I can smell the fragrance of snacks."

Pushing the tall man, they entered the hall together. Jian Ning didn't dare to follow too closely, and waited for a while before sneaking in secretly.

These demons have all kinds of special abilities, some of which may be inherent in their race, but they should not be underestimated.

There are already 50 people sitting in the hall, and everyone has a couch in front of them. There were tea and snacks on it, but there was no one at the main table.

Jian Ning simply walked over, sat down swaggeringly, propped up her cheeks,

Listen to these demons below talking loudly. After listening for a long time, I couldn't extract any useful information, so I couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that I’d better come back tomorrow. There’s no point in wasting time here. Just as I stood up from the chair and wanted to leave, I suddenly heard someone shouting: “The Lord of the City is here!”

As soon as the voice sounded, Jian Ning stopped again.

Everyone in the room stood up, and then a man walked in from the outside with a folding fan in his hand, swinging it three times with one step. His peach-blossom eyes were silent and he was smiling, and he was wearing a nondescript scribe's hat on his head.

No matter how you look at him, he looks like a suave playboy, and he doesn't look like a demon in charge of a big city at all.

"Welcome Lord Qingcheng!"

Everyone in the hall gave up their hands at the same time. Jian Ning quickly got down from the chair.

Although this person doesn't look lethal on the outside, he can't be judged by his appearance. Who knows what his real identity is. To be able to sit in this position is definitely not a good thing. It's better to be careful.

"No courtesy, everyone. You have come all the way. Don't blame Qing for not entertaining us well. Hurry up and take your seats. Come on, let's have some food and drinks. We won't go home until we're drunk today!"

After speaking, he strode towards his seat. As soon as he sat down, he frowned.

This seat was actually warm. Someone was sitting on his chair just now, but it was strange. When he entered the hall, his eyes were facing the main seat. Why couldn't he find anyone?

But now is not the time to talk about this. There are so many guests below, and if they know that their city lord's mansion has been broken into silently, they will lose their face.

He would definitely not make this mistake. Thinking of this, he waved his hand and a boy ran in from outside the house.

He ran up to him and bowed his hands to him.

"What's your order?"

"Go and call Mrs. Ninth. Let her bring musical instruments to help everyone."

"It's an adult."

The boy quickly left and called for help. The city lord calmly continued to chat with the people in the room, but secretly searched for the extra person.
