3721 See The City Lord’s Intention
After they watched them turn and leave, the city guards stared at them for a while but didn’t pay them much attention.
After Du Fan and Luo Yu left, they walked around to the other side of the City Lord Manor. They looked at the surroundings of the City Lord Manor, then they looked at each other, and in the next moment, they took a leap and went inside.
There were many guards in the City Lord Manor, but with their cultivation, it wasn’t difficult for them to enter quietly without being seen. They walked around the City Lord Manor, and after they found the City Lord’s courtyard and saw that the City Lord wasn’t in his courtyard, they released their spirit intent.
“Sister Xiao Qiu, are you bringing ginseng tea to the City Lord again?” A servant maid smiled at another servant maid and asked.
“Yes! The City Lord is dealing with matters in the study and he will probably be busy till the evening, so Madam asked me to bring him a cup of ginseng tea to refresh himself.” The other servant maid replied without saying much else as she carried the tray and headed towards the study.
Du Fan and Luo Yu withdrew their spirit intent and quietly followed the servant maid towards the study. They looked at the guards in below in the courtyard. There were eight people inside and outside, and there were two more standing guard outside the door to the study.
After Luo Yu glanced at Du Fan, he moved his hand and sealed the acupuncture points of those guards below. Then, he jumped down with Du Fan and came to the door of the study.
The door creaked open and when they walked in, they saw the middle-aged man at the desk immersed in something. When he heard the sound of the door being pushed open, the man sensed that something was wrong and he raised his head to look at them.
“Who are you?”
Tang Zhiwu frowned slightly as he looked at the two people who had walked in. There was no movement or communication from outside. It was inconceivable that no one knew that those two people had entered.
If those two people had sneaked into the City Lord Manor and no one had detected them, then their strength and cultivation must be extraordinary. When he thought of this, he looked at the two of them for a moment, but he was unable to see what their cultivation level was.
As the City Lord of the Southern District, his cultivation was not considered the strongest amongst the four City Lords, but it was also not low. However, he was unable to see the strength of the two people in front of him. This revelation shocked him.
It was precisely because he was unable to see through their strength that he, who had been in a high position for a long time could tell that those people bore no ill intention, so he calmed himself down, then he picked up the cup of ginseng tea and took a sip unhurriedly.
“Is there something I can help you with? Please sit down.” He gestured with the disposition of a City Lord to the two of them to sit down.
The other party’s extraordinary bearing made Du Fan and Luo Yu look at each other with agreed admiration. The two of them walked forward and sat dowd. Du Fan fanned the fan in his hand and said leisurely: “The bearing of City Lord Tang is indeed extraordinary.”
His voice paused and his eyes fell onto the City Lord, then he said with a smile: “There is something that we would like to trouble City Lord Tang with but it was difficult to gain an entrance to meet you at your Manor’s main entrance, so we can only use this method to see you. Apologies for being so disrespectful, we hope City Lord Tang doesn’t mind.”
Tang Zhiwu saw that he looked like a handsome nobleman but even when he was face to face with a City Lord, he didn’t appear nervous at all. On the contrary, he seemed very leisurely and relaxed. Even at a glance, he could tell that the fan in his hand was not a mortal item.
Upon seeing this, he didn’t care about them being rude, and he just asked them in a deep voice: “Who are you? Why do you want to see me?”
