Luo Linlang was dumbfounded, but looking at Shen Yuzhao who was looking at her eagerly, she really couldn't hurt him by saying not to join his team.

In the end, all he could do was give Lu Sangjiu a resentful look, which was regarded as acquiescing to the grouping.

Lu Sangjiu felt a little guilty, but still pretended not to see it.

She had no choice but to be with Xie Ningyuan so that she wouldn't be too constrained. If she was paired with someone else, her combat effectiveness would be reduced by half.

What's more... To be honest, she wasn't very reassured about Xie Ningyuan. What if she was in a group with others and turned up the power on impulse?She had to look at her closely to feel at ease.

Others have no objections to this grouping, and these people are all capable. No group will be held back, and there is basically no need to worry about anyone if they work separately.

After Lu Sangjiu was divided into groups, she looked at Xie Ningyuan on her right, "It's your turn to speak."

Xie Ningyuan said calmly, "I just used my spiritual sense to check the entire City Lord's Mansion. There is a very strong barrier in one of the courtyards. I am not in a very good condition right now and I don't dare to check it forcefully, otherwise I am afraid it will alarm the City Lord."

"I compared other places and guessed that it should be the residence of the city lord's wife. I specially set up an extra barrier there. There may be something fishy in it. You can pay close attention to it when Fellow Taoist Yan goes there tomorrow."

Yan Zui sat on the right side of Xie Ningyuan. Seeing that he had no intention of saying more, he nodded and took over.

"Although this city lord's wife and I are not really related, my junior sister is. I made a point of getting to know her before coming here, so it shouldn't be a problem to fool the city lord's wife tomorrow."

"And I heard from my junior sister that the city lord is known to be very kind to his wife. If the city lord has any problems, my wife should also know about it."

"When the time comes, I will act by ear and try to come up with as many words as possible."

These big Immortal Cultivation Families are all very prosperous, and they may not all recognize each other if they are from the same clan, and they may not have heard of each other, so there should be no problem for Yan Zui to fool them with some things that her junior sister told her.

Then came Gu Jue, who said: "When we came here, we rode a carriage and swaggered through the city. I suspect that the city lord wanted to give some people a chance to recognize him... There may be danger next, so be careful."

Lu Sangjiu was actually aware of this, and she even vaguely sensed some strange looks hidden in the crowd at that time.

It's just that there are too many people on the street, and it's difficult to find them accurately.

So she also nodded, "Gu Jue is right. If this matter is really related to the demon cultivator, then the city lord is at best an accomplice. The real culprit is still hiding in the dark, waiting for opportunities. Everyone should be extra vigilant. "

After a pause, she looked at Luo Linlang and Shen Yuzhao with great concern, "Second Senior Sister, Third Senior Brother trusts others too easily. You should pay more attention here."

Although Luo Linlang usually looks unreliable when it comes to her bluffing, in fact she is just a talker and is not very reckless when she does things.

Of course Luo Linlang nodded confidently at this moment, "Don't worry, little junior sister, I have always taken my third junior brother out for training before, so I have gained experience!"

Shen Yuzhao blinked, and then expressed his own opinion, "I actually made a discovery, that is... I feel that since I entered the City Lord's Mansion, my strange fire seems to be particularly restless."

Lu Sangjiu was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment and then realized, "The strange fires are all sensitive to each other. Could it be that... the city lord's mansion also has strange fires?"

Shen Yuzhao shook his head, "I don't know, but even if there is certainty, it is not with the city lord. I didn't have any special feeling when I saw him."

Lu Sangjiu then looked at Yan Zui, "Have you ever heard of someone in the City Lord's Mansion who is pregnant with strange fire?"

Because in the minds of everyone, strange fire is still something that cannot be taken away from a monk, so generally people who have strange fire are not likely to deliberately hide it.

If there is, a lot of people should know about it under normal circumstances.

But Yan Zui shook his head and said, "Before I came here, I specifically asked some people to inquire about Yuelin City, including the composition of the City Lord's Mansion. I didn't hear that anyone was harboring strange fire."

This may not be a very important point originally, but it seems strange that no one knows about it.

Lu Sangjiu thought for a moment, then looked at Shen Yuzhao and said, "Third Senior Brother, then you will find an opportunity to wander around the City Lord's Mansion and see if you can narrow down the area where strange fires may exist."

Shen Yuzhao nodded obediently, "Okay."

Finally, there was Luo Linlang. Her expression was rare and serious, "I think... the way the city lord looked at me just now was not right."

"I suspect that if he wants to attack us in the future, he may choose me first. You must protect me!"

After a pause, she added, "I'm not kidding!"

Originally it was okay if she didn't add the last sentence, but when she did, it always made people feel weird, and for a while people didn't know whether to take it seriously or not.

After a period of silence, it was Lu Sangjiu who broke the silence first with a cough, "Okay, senior sister, you must be careful. If you feel something is wrong, send the talisman immediately to contact us."

Luo Linlang suddenly looked at Lu Sangjiu with tears in her eyes, "I know that my junior sister is the best to me. I love you so much!"

After saying that, he gave Lu Sangjiu a loving hug.

Yan Zui and Luo Linlang always like to argue, and now they couldn't help but say coldly, "You have to protect me as a senior sister, thank you for your kindness."

Luo Linlang raised her chin very embarrassedly, "If you are capable, ask your junior sister to protect you. It's not like grapes are sour!"

Yan Zui: "..."

I'm so pissed!

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Lu Sangjiu hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Sister Yan Zui, didn't you get the detailed file from the city lord? Take it out and let's take a look first!"

Speaking of business, Yan Zui immediately stopped arguing with Luo Linlang, and immediately took out the file recording the details of the case and spread it on the table.

Everyone was a monk, and with a sweep of their spiritual consciousness, they memorized the entire content in their heads in a moment.

Lu Sangjiu almost understood the matter and could assign tasks directly.

"Tomorrow Xie Ningyuan and I will go to the woods where the other party dumped his body. Yan Zui and Gu Jue, you guys go to the place where the deceased who had a witness was taken away, and also ask the witness by the way."

"Lastly, Second Senior Sister and Third Senior Brother, you two please go visit the other relatives of the deceased or the inn to see if there is anything missing."

Except for the one with an eyewitness, no one actually knows the exact location of the disappearance. Most of the files that can be learned have been written down. I would just check it again for fear of omissions.

So Lu Sangjiu directly gathered them all together and gave them to Luo Linlang and the others to walk through.

Going to the woods required leaving the city, which was obviously more dangerous, so Lu Sangjiu was left to himself and Xie Ningyuan.
