Upon seeing this, Jiao Mingshan hurriedly stepped forward to salute, with a respectful smile on his face.

"Little Lord."

Zhu Chen glanced at him indifferently, with a hint of nonchalance in his tone.

"Lord Jiao, there's no need to be so polite. Didn't you just say that you prepared a special gift for this young master? May I take a look at it?"

When Jiao Mingshan heard this, his face changed slightly and he groaned in his heart.

The beauty has already run away, where can he prepare a gift for her now?

He hesitated for a moment, but finally said it with gritted teeth.

"Master, please forgive me. I...I failed to do my job well. Something unexpected happened with that gift."

"Oh?"

Zhu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked with a hint of amusement in his tone, "What happened?"

Jiao Mingshan's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he answered in a low voice, "Young Master, that woman...she suddenly rebelled and looted the warehouse of the City Lord's Mansion. She is now missing."

When Zhu Chen heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he laughed.

"Rebellion? Looting a warehouse? Interesting, really interesting!"

Jiao Mingshan was stunned. He didn't expect that Zhu Chen was not angry, but became more interested in Meng Wan.

Zhu Chen showed some interest in his eyes, "Most of the women I have met are timid and boring.

Not only did he dare to rebel openly in the City Lord's Mansion, he also looted the warehouse. He is quite courageous."

Jiao Mingshan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, and quickly agreed, "Young Master is right, this girl is indeed different.

She has only been away from here for a quarter of an hour, so she can't have run far. I will send someone to track her down right away!"

Zhu Chen chuckled, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

"Investigate? No need. I will go meet her in person."

When Jiao Mingshan heard this, he was shocked and hurried forward to dissuade him.

"Young Master, although this girl is only at the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm, she is quite powerful. I am worried..."

"worry about what?"

Zhu Chen raised his eyebrows, with a hint of displeasure in his tone.

"Do you think that this young master can't do anything to her?"

Jiao Mingshan lowered his head quickly, sweat pouring down his forehead, "I dare not! But this girl is very cunning, I am afraid that the young master will be implicated..."

"Humph!"

Zhu Chen snorted coldly and waved his sleeves, with a hint of arrogance in his tone.

"A mere woman in the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm is worth your being so nervous?

This young master wants to see what she is capable of, to dare to act so presumptuously under my nose!"

Seeing that Zhu Chen had made up his mind, Jiao Mingshan dared not say anything more and could only speak respectfully.

"Young Master is wise. I will send someone to assist you and make sure to capture this girl!"

"No need."

Zhu Chen smiled faintly, with a hint of confidence in his eyes.

"This young master is enough. You just need to tell me where she is going, and you don't have to worry about the rest."

Jiao Mingshan nodded quickly and handed him the direction Meng Wan left and a jade talisman with Meng Wan's aura recorded on it.

After learning the direction of Meng Wan's escape, Zhu Chen smiled.

"Interesting, she actually went north. There are many demons and monsters in that place. She is very brave."

Jiao Mingshan said cautiously, "Young Master, demons are rampant in the north, and the environment is harsh. If you go there in person, I am worried..."

"worry about what?"

Zhu Chen glanced at him, with a hint of impatience in his tone, "Do I need to explain my actions to you?"

Jiao Mingshan lowered his head helplessly, "I dare not!"

Zhu Chen no longer paid attention to him. He turned around and waved his sleeves. His figure turned into a stream of red light, soaring into the sky and heading straight to the north.

After Zhu Chen left, Jiao Mingshan slowly raised his head, with a complex look in his eyes.

He murmured in a low voice: "Meng Wan, ah Meng Wan, if you had been obedient, why would it have come to this? Now that you have angered the young master of the Suzaku clan, I am afraid that you are in great danger..."

Half an hour later, in a desolate forest a hundred thousand miles away.

Meng Wan's figure was as fast as lightning, shuttling between the barren mountains and forests.

She heard that there were many demons and monsters in the north, so she planned to find more prey here.

But at this moment, she suddenly felt that a powerful aura was approaching rapidly.

Meng Wan's heart trembled, and she suddenly stopped and looked up at the sky.

A streak of red light streaked across the sky and appeared in front of her in an instant.

The light faded away, and a young man in luxurious brocade robe stood with his hands behind his back. It was Zhu Chen.

"Deputy City Lord Meng, why are you in such a hurry?"

Zhu Chen smiled slightly, with a hint of teasing in his tone.

Meng Wan's eyes turned cold, demonic power surged around her body, and she stared at Zhu Chen vigilantly.

"Who are you?"

Zhu Chen chuckled, "I am Zhu Chen from the Suzaku clan, and I have come to invite Deputy City Lord Meng back to my mansion for a chat."

When Meng Wan heard this, she immediately became alert.

Although she had never seen Zhu Chen, she had heard of the name of the young master of the Suzaku clan.

This person's strength is definitely not comparable to that of Jiaomingshan.

"I have no connection with the Suzaku Clan. Why is Young Master making things difficult for me?"

Meng Wan said coldly.

Zhu Chen shook his head, with a hint of amusement in his tone.

"Embarrassment? No, no, no, I am just very interested in you.

It's rare to see a female demon who dares to rebel openly in the city lord's mansion and rob the warehouse. As long as you follow me, I guarantee you will enjoy endless wealth and glory! "

When Meng Wan heard this, a strange look flashed in her eyes. Then she lowered her head, a faint blush appeared on her face, and she spoke softly.

"Since the young master values ​​me so much, then I... I am naturally willing to follow the young master. But..."

She raised her head, her eyes filled with anticipation and exploration.

"The young master just said that if I follow you, I will enjoy endless wealth and honor. I wonder... what kind of wealth and honor is that?"

Zhu Chen was slightly surprised to see her agree so readily, but was soon replaced by pride.

He chuckled, with a hint of pride in his tone.

“If you follow this young master, you will be the woman of the young master of the Suzaku tribe, with a respected status, and no one will dare to bully you.

There are all kinds of cultivation resources and panaceas.

If you can give birth to a child for this young master, you will be honored as a mother and enjoy all the glory."

When Meng Wan heard this, a light flashed in her eyes, and she seemed to be extremely moved by Zhu Chen's words.

She lowered her head slightly, her voice soft and a little shy.

"Young Master, you are so kind to me. Meng Wan is very grateful. But... my cultivation is still shallow now, and I am afraid I am not worthy of the Young Master's status."

Zhu Chen was even more satisfied to see her being so humble. He reached out and gently lifted her chin with a look of admiration in his eyes.

"That's fine. This young master values ​​your bloodline and courage. Your cultivation can be improved slowly. As long as you follow me loyally, this young master will naturally not treat you unfairly."

Meng Wan's face became even redder and she nodded slightly.

"Young Master, rest assured. Meng Wan will serve you wholeheartedly and will never let you down."

Zhu Chen was delighted to see her so obedient, and said with a smile, "Okay! In that case, then follow me back to the mansion."

Meng Wan responded obediently and followed Zhu Chen.

The two walked along the way. Zhu Chen was in a good mood and chatted with Meng Wan from time to time.

Meng Wan behaved extremely docilely, her words full of flattery and obedience, which gradually dissipated Zhu Chen's wariness of her.

However, just as the two were about to leave the wilderness, Meng Wan suddenly stopped and said softly, "Young Master, there seems to be something wrong ahead."
