After resting in the rest area for the night, Lu Shichuan did not immediately set off to return to Suzaku City.

When the time came in the afternoon, Zhao Xueming and others also returned to the rest area one after another.

They were all instructed by Lu Shichuan earlier, and they didn't go too deep into the alien beast tide, and there were no casualties when they came back.But the rest of the hunting group did not have such good luck.

However, in the last days, the number of supernatural beings who died of strange beasts is unknown every day. Everyone has long been accustomed to life and death, and they didn't pay much attention to this matter. Instead, they discussed the gains of this operation.

An hour later, the convoy started again.

Shang Yuchao was sitting in Lu Shichuan's car, with no intention of going back.

"Ye Jingsheng is still in the hunting group," he said, "It's just a detection mission, nothing will go wrong."

Lu Shichuan didn't have any objection to him staying, so he didn't say much.

It was already night when the convoy returned to Suzaku City, but Wei Zhaoyang and Lao Ding had been waiting near the gate of the city for the past two days. When they heard the movement, the two of them quickly greeted them.

He saw Shang Yuchao getting off Lu Shichuan's car.

Wei Zhaoyang: "..."

She deliberately went to confirm that the hunting group returning to the city was indeed led by the Lu family hunting group——

Suddenly, she paused.

The team returning to the city had all entered through the city gate when they arrived, but she was still standing on a high place at this time, and could clearly see the whole picture of the team.

At this time, Lao Ding was also surprised, "Lu's Hunting Group," he turned his face and looked at Wei Zhaoyang, and they both saw the same emotion in each other's eyes, "Is there half of the people missing?"

Wei Zhaoyang frowned and did not speak.

She looked over again, and happened to look into Lu Shichuan's dark eyes who came out of the car.

Lu Shichuan nodded slightly to her, his handsome face was cold and alienated.

Wei Zhaoyang was slightly taken aback.

For some reason, when she saw Lu Shichuan now, she always felt that the other person's temperament had changed slightly.

This feeling doesn't make sense.

"Let's go." Gathering his senses, Wei Zhaoyang said to Lao Ding, "Go and hear what good news they brought."

The two walked over quickly.

The mask on Shang Yuchao's face had already been taken off in the rest area, and he didn't deliberately cover it when he got out of the car, and many people around had already seen him.

"Why is the owner of the mall together with our young owner?"

"I don't know, but it seems that they have a good relationship..."

Those words made the surroundings fall into an eerie silence.

Because no one thought that the Shang Dynasty would have a close relationship with Lu Shichuan.

It wasn't until Wei Zhaoyang and the two approached that he opened his mouth to break the delicate atmosphere.

"I didn't expect the Shang City Master and the Young City Master to meet together." She didn't see the Shang's hunting group just now, so she didn't mention it. "You should be exhausted, do you need to rest first? If you haven’t come back yet, why don’t you start after everyone is here.”

Lu Shichuan was noncommittal.

The Shang Dynasty was even less interested in these.

Wei Zhaoyang took it as their acquiescence, turned around and gestured to Lao Ding.The latter understood and arranged for everyone to go to the residence in an orderly manner.

The hunting group left one by one, gradually leaving only the three of them in place.

Only then did Wei Zhaoyang ask cautiously: "Young City Master, have you encountered any danger outside the city?"

Lu Shichuan glanced at her, "A large herd of alien beasts."

Although Lu Shichuan said it lightly, Wei Zhaoyang still secretly gasped.

Looking at the loss of the Lu's Hunting Group, one can tell that this large herd of alien beasts must not be that simple.Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Lu Shichuan's expression several times, trying to see any signs of force in the other's usual stern profile.

It's a pity that she didn't get her wish.

At any time, she could only see the same calmness on Lu Shichuan's face, and the unfathomable depth in those indifferent jet-black eyes.

After walking a few steps forward, Wei Zhaoyang turned to look at Lu Shichuan for the fifth time——

Unbearable, Shang Mian took a step forward, blocking her view.

He said coldly, "City Master Wei, is there anything else?"

Wei Zhaoyang: "..."

She felt the cold wind scratching wantonly on her face, and she wanted to explain that she was already married.

"It's getting late," but Shang Yuchao didn't give her this chance, "If there's nothing important, Shi Chuan and I still need to rest."

Wei Zhaoyang said awkwardly: "The owner of the mall said yes, then I won't bother you."

She tactfully stopped.

Shang Yuchao and Lu Shichuan went back to the hotel side by side.

Go back to the room.

Shang Yuchao originally wanted to repeat the old trick, "You are going to—"

But Lu Shichuan received a video communication request while he was speaking.

Shang Yu frowned, almost unable to restrain his impatience, "Who is it?"

Lu Shichuan clicked on the request for details, a little surprised, "The housekeeper at home."

He clicked to accept the communication, and the figure of the butler immediately appeared in front of him.

The other party still had obvious anxiety on his face, and when he saw Lu Shichuan, he cut straight to the point, "Young master, the leader is poisoned!"

Poisoning?

This is a plot that does not exist in the memory of the original owner.

"what happened."

The butler explained the matter briefly.

The incident happened this afternoon. Lu Tai went to practice boxing in the garden after eating as usual, but he didn't expect that after less than half an hour of practice, he would suddenly have abdominal pain and sweat all over his body, and passed out not long after.

After diagnosis and treatment, the doctor confirmed that he was poisoned by the concentrated toxin extracted from the strange beast.Fortunately, few people know that this kind of toxin will attack early due to external reasons, such as strenuous exercise.

Lu Taihe's habit of practicing boxing has saved his life, otherwise, according to the normal onset time of the toxin, it would be enough for him to die silently in the dead of night when there is no one around.

"Is there any result of the investigation?"

The housekeeper shook his head, "Not yet, the monitoring signal in the kitchen has been blocked, and it will take a while before it returns to normal."

Hearing this, Lu Shichuan had already guessed who the person who attacked Lu Taihe was.

There are not many people in Baihu City who can attack Lu Taihe's residence.Coupled with the coincidence of Lu Taihe being poisoned, he has no reason not to doubt Lu Zechang.

"How is father?"

"To treat this kind of toxin, a therapist above level five is needed to completely eradicate it." Perhaps infected by Lu Shichuan's calm and calm attitude, the butler gradually became serious, "Because the young master is going to deal with the alien beast tide personally this time, the team leader put All the healers above level four in the regiment have been sent out, so now the leader can only stabilize the injury, and the toxicity has not improved. I would like to ask the young master to send back a healer as soon as possible, so that the leader can recover!"

"Well." After Lu Shichuan agreed, he said bluntly, "Until my father recovers from his injury, his safety is the most important thing. Strengthen precautions, and I don't want to see any more accidents."

The butler immediately replied: "Yes!"

Before hanging up, Lu Shichuan reminded him, "During this period, no one is allowed to visit. The same goes for family members, understand."

The housekeeper froze, and quickly realized who he was referring to, "I understand, don't worry, young master!"

This concludes the communication.

Shang Yuchao didn't speak until after Lu Shichuan hung up: "If you need anything, I will do my best to help you."

Lu Shichuan said: "You heard it too, only one therapist is needed to remove the toxin, it's not that serious."

Shang Yuchao suggested calmly, "I remember, the Ji Rui who came with you this time is a fifth-level healing power user. He is very loyal to you, why don't you let him go back."

Lu Shichuan thought for a while, "Alright."

Shang Yuchao suggested again, "However, it would be dangerous to let him go back alone. By the way, let your subordinate Zhao Xueming be the captain. Choose a few people to escort him back together."

Lu Shichuan accepted his suggestion again, raised his hand and sent a message to Zhao Xueming on Xingwang.

Within three seconds, the latter sent a communication.

Lu Shichuan gave him the task of escorting, "To avoid information leakage, don't tell anyone the route back to the city, including me."

Zhao Xueming was still a little dazed, "Go back?"

But Lu Shichuan's orders never have room for bargaining. Thinking of this, he slowly tightened his hand hanging by his side, "Yes, I understand."

After that, he still wanted to say something, "Young City Master, before I leave, I can go—"

Shang Yuchao walked slowly behind Lu Shichuan.

"how."

Stared at by Shang Yuchao's icy cold black eyes, Zhao Xueming's voice suddenly stuck in his throat.

He took back the second half of the sentence that slipped to the tip of his tongue, and forced a smile: "It's nothing...I just want to ask, do I need to prepare anything before leaving?"

Lu Shichuan didn't notice his strangeness, "No need. Let's leave now, thank you for your hard work."

Zhao Xueming shook his head lightly, "It's not hard." He whispered, "Then I'll set off right away. Goodbye."

The second communication tonight is also over.

After solving this sudden trouble, Lu Shichuan took off his coat and didn't look at the information of Xingwang again.

Shang Yuchao's gaze followed him.

The housekeeper said just now that Lu Taihe's injuries have stabilized, and now it is only necessary for a level [-] healing system user to go back and eradicate the toxin. When Zhao Xueming returns to Baihu City with Ji Rui, Lu Taihe will no longer have Big problem.

Moreover, thinking that Zhao Xueming and Ji Rui would no longer be seen by Lu Shichuan's side after this period of time, the slight unhappiness that Shang Yuchao had just had was quietly smoothed away.

At the same time, the compulsively suppressed eagerness in his heart also revived.

But after waiting for a long time, I didn't see Lu Shichuan planning to wash up.

Shang Yuchao walked to the sofa and sat down.

He followed the cold tone of the owner of the mall and asked, "Do you want to take a bath?"
