The female cannon fodder in the book, the villain instantly turned into a pitiful and coquettish gir

"This drama is almost over, Madam Mayor, it's time to fulfill your promise."

Ling Chenyu changed his face like a Sichuan opera performer. He was the affectionate actor a second ago, but now he has turned into a cold-blooded negotiation expert.

His eyes were as sharp as a knife, and the air around him seemed to be frozen by his aura.

Xiao Shilang was shivering beside him.

The speed at which his expression changes is even faster than turning the pages of a book!

Your Highness, can't you give your subordinates some buffer time?

The city lord's wife was overwhelmed by Ling Chenyu's momentum and forced a smile on her face.

"Your Highness Prince Chen, your request really puts me in a difficult position. How can a mere wife of a city lord like me influence the war between Yun and Ling?"

Ling Chenyu smiled slightly, but there was no warmth in that smile.

"Oh? Really? Then will the City Lord's wife tell us about Liu Yaoyao's whereabouts or not?"

The city lord's wife's face changed. Ling Chenyu was serious this time.

Although she was extremely unwilling, the situation was stronger than she was, so she had to compromise.

"Your Highness Prince Chen, if you can withdraw from Yun Country and no longer participate in the war in Ling Country, I will tell you the whereabouts of Liu Yaoyao."

Ling Chenyu nodded, a hint of teasing flashed in his eyes.

"Okay, I'll trust you this time. However, if I can't find Liu Yaoyao, or if she gets into trouble, humph, Madam City Lord, you should know my methods."

After saying that, Ling Chenyu turned around and left with a casual step.

The city lord's wife was left with a look of astonishment, as if she had seen a ghost.

Xiao Shilang's face was filled with:

who am I?

where am I?

What just happened?

Xiao Shilang touched his head and talked to himself in confusion.

"Your Highness's operation is even more amazing than those legendary fortune tellers in the martial arts world!

Is this the legendary 'a word awakening a person from a dream'?

No, no, no, this is more like 'scare the city lord's wife away with one word'!"

He looked around, trying to catch a clue about the whereabouts of Miss Liu Yaoyao from the air, but there was nothing except the lingering aura of fear from the City Lord's wife.

He sighed helplessly.

This Miss Liu Yaoyao seems to have disappeared out of thin air. Can Your Highness really find her?

Are you kidding him?

Just as Xiao Shilang fell into deep thought, Ling Chenyu's voice suddenly came from a distance.

"Xiao Shilang, stop being in a daze and follow me."

Xiao Shilang was startled and quickly followed Ling Chenyu's pace.

Ling Chenyu led him through the bustling streets and came to a seemingly ordinary house.

Ling Chenyu knocked on the door, and it opened. A big man with a beard stuck his head out.

After seeing Ling Chenyu, he immediately bowed respectfully: "Your Highness, you are here."

Ling Chenyu nodded and motioned Xiao Shilang to follow.

The two walked into the house, only to see it filled with all kinds of strange tools and books. It looked like a small coroner's workshop.

Ling Chenyu walked to a table, picked up a magnifying glass, and began to carefully observe a map on the table.

Xiao Shilang was completely confused and couldn't help asking, "Your Highness, what are you doing..."

Ling Chenyu didn't raise his head, but just said lightly: "Look for clues."

Xiao Shilang was even more confused: "Clue? On this map?"

Ling Chenyu finally raised his head and revealed a mysterious smile.

"That's right. This map is the key to Yaoyao's whereabouts."

Xiao Shilang widened his eyes, unable to believe his ears.

"Just an ordinary map?"

Ling Chenyu shook his head.

"No, this is not an ordinary map. Look here, there is a small mark here. Most people may not be able to see it, but for me, it is the key."

Xiao Shilang took a closer look and indeed found an almost invisible mark in a corner of the map.

He admired Ling Chenyu's insight: "Your Highness, you really have a keen eye!"

Ling Chenyu smiled slightly, his eyes flashing with determination, as if he was playing with a chess piece that was about to fall into his palm.

"Hey, Brother Xiao, don't be so serious. Although this matter is important, we have to take it easy. Maybe Yaoyao is laughing at us in some corner because we are so nervous like fools."

The corners of Xiao Shilang's mouth twitched.

Your Highness is really unconventional. Is he joking at this time?

However, he quickly adjusted his mentality. After all, he, Xiao Shilang, was no pushover.

"Okay, Your Highness, please tell me. No matter how difficult it is, I will do my best to find Miss Liu!"

Xiao Shilang said this with a solemn oath.

Ling Chenyu nodded with satisfaction.

"Actually, I have a bold guess. Yaoyao...may have gone to a place that none of us dare to go to."

"Oh? Where?" Xiao Shilang's curiosity was aroused.

"Hehe, that's - 'the mysterious misty forest'!" Ling Chenyu said mysteriously.

When Xiao Shilang heard this, he almost fell to the ground.

You know, the Misty Forest is a notoriously dangerous area, full of unknown dangers and strange creatures. Even warriors like them who have experienced many battles dare not set foot in it easily.

"Your Highness, you...you are not kidding, right? How could Miss Yaoyao go to a place like that?"

Xiao Shilang asked stutteringly.

Ling Chenyu was helpless.

“I’m just guessing.

But think about it, Yaoyao likes adventure and is full of curiosity about the unknown world.

Besides, she disappeared mysteriously recently. I can’t think of any other place that could fascinate her so much except the Misty Forest.”

Xiao Shilang took a deep breath.

No, Your Highness, don’t you ever think about whether something has happened to Miss Liu?

But this is an order from His Highness, what can he do?

Of course I agreed.

"Okay! Then I'll go to the Misty Forest to find Miss Yaoyao!"

Xiao Shilang gritted his teeth.

Ling Chenyu looked at Xiao Shilang's determined eyes and nodded secretly.

"Brother Xiao, this journey is dangerous. The misty forest is full of unknowns and dangers. Every step you take may lead you to the abyss of death..."

Ling Chenyu was explaining things with a serious face when suddenly a carrier pigeon fluttered and landed on his hand precisely like a messenger in a martial arts drama.

Ling Chenyu hurriedly opened the letter box.

His hands trembled slightly, as if the contents of the letter carried great weight.

Xiao Shilang glanced at it curiously and saw it clearly written on the letter.

"Princess Han was kidnapped by Shadow Blade, and someone saw Miss Yaoyao with her!"

Xiao Shilang's mouth twitched, he couldn't believe it.

"What's going on? The princess and Princess Han were kidnapped? Should we go to the Misty Forest to find them, or should we go straight to Shadow Blade to settle the score?"

Ling Chenyu tried hard to hide the expression on his face and calm himself down.

"It seems that our plan needs to be adjusted a little. Originally we just wanted to find Yaoyao, but now we have to settle the accounts!"
