Even now, Leng Hong Xiu was still thinking if there was any way to go back to the modern world. After all, she was still worried about her brother, Hong Xiu. If she wasn't here, that bastard surnamed Ding would definitely take the opportunity to find her!
Humph! The surnamed Ding had to pray that he wouldn't go back, otherwise, regardless of whether he touched a hair on his brother's head with his dirty hands, she swore that the first thing would be to destroy him, Ding Xiaonan!
For no reason, Sen Luo suddenly felt a strong killing intent from Leng Hong Xiu's body. He looked at her expression and confirmed that the killing intent was not directed at him. He just didn't know who was so unfortunate as to be hated by Leng Hong Xiu again!
They had nothing to say along the way. By daybreak the next day, the two of them had arrived at a new city.
The two of them had intended to have a good rest and have a meal, but this time, they didn't even sit down properly before trouble came knocking on the door.
"May I ask if it's Young Master Sen Senshen?" A middle-aged man who looked like a scholar slowly walked up. He wore a short sword on his waist and stood still in front of Sen Luo.
When did he become so famous? To think that someone would recognize him in such a strange place?
He couldn't help but wonder if this person was sent by Feng You Ran or someone else. He said lightly, "That's right, it's me. What can I do for you?"
As for Leng Hong Xiu who was together with them, she acted as if she did not hear their conversation. Her eyebrows didn't even raise as she reached out to the waiter, "Get me some food, it's faster!"
"Yes, young master. I'll be right there!"
The waiter looked at them worriedly, afraid that they would start a fight and cause trouble. After all, not long ago, the middle-aged man with the scholarly appearance had injured a few people who had been viciously eating their Overlord Dinner. Now that he was standing in front of these two gongzis' tables, how could he not be worried?
Although he would compensate for the loss of their tables and chairs, if they fought again, even if they had the money, their restaurant would not be able to buy a new table and chair for a while!
However, no matter how worried he was, a waiter was unable to stop him. He could only retreat and prepare the food.
"I am Leng Qingyun, the leader of the experts in the west wing of the Xiangxi Prefecture. I wonder if Young Master Sen still remembers what happened at the Lantern Festival last year?"
First, he stated that he was from the Duke Xiang's Mansion. Not to mention why he had come to find him, he only said that it was because of the lanterns that were lit during last year's Spring Festival. To remind Sen Luo of last year's Lantern Festival, who exactly had he seen!
If this was the past, Sen Luo might not be able to remember what kind of person he was talking about. However, not long after he got to know Leng Hong Xiu, there was the matter of him being taken away by a dozen or so people who claimed to be from the Duke of Xiang's Mansion. No matter how much he wanted to pretend, he could not pretend to be confused.
He had thought that this person was someone that Feng You Ran had sent. It seemed like it had been a long time, but it was actually someone that Princess Jiao of the Western Prefecture had sent?
Sen Luo could not help but feel somewhat resentful. Why did these people never come before and never come after him, and they had to come while he and Leng Hong Xiu were eating, causing him to have a total of two chances to eat on the same stage as Leng Hong Xiu, yet he was destroyed by the same woman's unfathomable infatuation twice. Sen Luo's heart wanted to immediately travel a thousand miles to the Duke's Mansion in Xiangxi Province, to strangle that woman who had nothing to do.
Therefore, his tone immediately lost its edge. "You already said it was last year's Lantern Festival, how can I still remember? What business do you have with me? If you don't tell us why you're here, then please leave. Can't you see that we're preparing to eat? "
If it was any other person who heard this tone, they would have been angered by it. However, Leng Qingyun was such a good man, yet he smiled and said, "Young Master Sen is right, it has been a year since I've been careless. It is inevitable that Young Master Sen would not remember it, but this one will be straightforward. During last year's Lantern Festival, Young Master Sen and the princess met at a party to bestow rewards, and Young Master Sen even had a conversation with our Lord Duke. That's why I wanted to invite Young Master Sen and myself to go back to the Duke Xiang Xi's estate together. With Princess An's many days of worry and longing for her, I wonder if Young Master Sen would be willing to honor me? "
Sen Luo sneered. "What if I say I'm not going? Is Mister Leng going to personally take this lowly one to see your princess? "
"How can this be? Although I have been blessed with many days of martial arts, at best, I have only protected myself and my muscles. If I had to take action, it would be to get rid of violence and protect my conscience; how could I force myself on Young Master Sen just because he was unwilling to go to the Duke's Mansion? Isn't that going against what we learned? "
Leng Qingyun continued to add with a serious face, "However, since the county prince has shown me the kindness of rebirth, he only has a princess and a daughter, doting on me ever since I was a child, and I am also the west wing's seat for the princess. As for the princess' wishes, even if I cannot help her, I absolutely cannot ignore them, so I will always follow by Young Master Sen's side and solicit Young Master Sen's favor, until Young Master Sen agrees to accompany me to visit the Duke Xiangxi Estate!"
After hearing Leng Qingyun's serious words, she could not help but burst out laughing. She did not expect that the ancients would have such fun, she wanted to see what Sen Luo would do when faced with Leng Qingyun, who had such a soft side!
Sen Luo's expression had originally somewhat eased, but after hearing these words, it immediately turned grim. "Is Mister Leng depending on us?"
"Young Master Sen, please forgive me, but I have no other choice. Young Master Sen is no different from making a trip to the Duke's Palace, this is already the Li City, it's only three days' journey away from Xiangxi. If Young Master Sen is willing to visit the princess and dispel the nostalgia of the princess, then it won't be too late for Young Master Sen to leave. What does Young Master Sen think? "
Leng Qingyun continued to speak with a tone that was neither fast nor slow, as though he was completely unfazed by Sen Luo's unsightly expression.
"Mr. Leng, aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?" Sen Luo narrowed his eyes. Why did everyone think that they could be a threat to him from the moment they met with Leng Hong Xiu? The words that came out whenever they were said were threatening words?
If I die because of this, then I will be the one who owes it to myself. It's not Young Master Sen Luo's fault, it's just that Young Master Sen Luo's loss is not worth it for such a small matter. I don't have any intention of threatening Young Master, it's just that my identity is a little special, if Young Master Sen doesn't want to follow me, it'll just be hating the trouble. Then Young Master Sen, why don't you follow me down to the prefecture lord's palace?
"Mister Leng, I'll say it again, we are hungry and need to eat. If you still insist on standing at the table to disturb my meal, I don't care whether you are the Duke's Mansion's Mister Xi? It doesn't matter if you have an even more special status or not, I, Sen Luo, will not give you any face! In my life, I hate people who threaten me the most. In this public place, you wouldn't want to hear me say something even more unpleasant, so please leave! "
"I'm sorry to disturb your lunch with this lady. How about this, I'll wait by the side for a while. We'll talk after Young Master Sen and this lady have their lunch!"
As he said that, he bent down and made a bow. Without waiting for Sen Luo and Leng Hong Xiu's response, he slowly retreated to a table not far away from them and sat down quietly. He looked like he was waiting for something, causing Sen Luo to be so angry that he was about to stand up.
"Leng Hong Xiu, let go! This is my private matter! " Sen Luo said in a low voice. His voice seemed to have come from deep within his throat.
"Let's eat first. We'll talk after the meal!"
The man was actually able to tell that she was a woman with a single glance, which showed that he had the ability to recognize her easily. Furthermore, judging from his bearing and demeanor, he was definitely not someone that a simple Mr. Xi Xi Men could have, she was naturally not afraid of Sen Luo killing people, but she was also very confident in her points, and it still depended on who he was going to kill. Anyways, killing Leng Qingyun in a place that everyone had seen before was definitely a big problem, and now they were in a lot of trouble.
At this moment, the waiter had just served up the dishes. Seeing that they were still sitting in their seats without any hostility between them, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief. His voice also became lighter, "Two gongzis, your food has arrived!"
"En, leave it there. Go down!" Leng Hong Xiu said lightly.
The waiter looked strangely at their overlapping hands on the table, tactfully not saying a word and immediately retreated.
Sen Luo was still somewhat unwilling, but Leng Hong Xiu had pressed down on his hands quite heavily. When he saw her cautious and persistent gaze, he slightly nodded his head, "I'll listen to you!"
Only then did Leng Hong Xiu withdraw her hand, "If you want to do it, then do it cleanly!"
"Of course I know that. You don't need to tell me!"
Sen Luo had already been provoked by Leng Qingyun's killing intent. Plus, this person seemed to have a lot of spiritual energy, and as long as he could absorb his life force for his own use, his internal injuries would probably be more than half healed. He was much more nutritious than those useless killers he killed last night.
"But after you killed him, I don't care about all the trouble you've gotten yourself into, including the Demon Slayer!"
If it were any other human, perhaps they would have thought deeply and feared him after hearing his words. However, he had used these words that were soft and hard to provoke Sen Luo, so he could be considered as having used the wrong person.
Leng Qingyun, a mere mortal who knew so little about martial arts and had so little background, was undoubtedly a little too naive to try to threaten Zeno. After all, he was a snake monster, so how could he buy it from him?
As such, Leng Hong Xiu did not have any sympathy for the outcome that would occur in the near future.
If she was Sen Luo, then it would be better if she went to the Duke of Xiangxi's residence. However, it was just a little girl who was in a infatuation, so she directly hypnotized and bewitched the matter, causing a commotion that would be difficult to deal with. What was there to do?
It was just that she knew it wouldn't be so simple, so she had to say the first words. If this led to any trouble, she would definitely not help Heruo.
"Hong Xiu, you are too cautious! Aren't you afraid of me, are you afraid of a few useless humans? Not to mention a mere teacher, even if he is the son of Rising Sun Nation, I am not afraid to kill him! "
At this moment, Sen Luo revealed a somewhat demonic smile, thinking that there were times when Leng Hong Xiu was timid.
After Leng Hong Xiu heard this, she let out a mocking laugh, "I thought that only people would be reckless. I didn't expect that the Spirit demon was the same, since I have already said so, it doesn't matter whether you listen or not! If you dare to come and beg me at that time, don't blame me for not saving you! "
"Don't worry, I can handle a Leng Qingyun but I will not embarrassedly ask you for help!" Sen Luo smiled crazily, he was extremely confident, and then he teased in a rather frivolous manner, "Red Sleeve, are you starting to care about me? I'm so happy! "
Leng Hong Xiu picked up her chopsticks and smiled, "Yeah, I'm starting to care when you're going to die!"
When Sen Luo heard this, he immediately burst out into laughter. He looked very happy, causing most of the people in the restaurant to glance at him. However, Sen Luo did not seem to care at all.
Leng Qingyun didn't hear what they were talking about. He only heard Sen Luo's sudden laughter. Seeing Sen Luo's unruly appearance, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. That girl Xiang Yun liked this kind of man. She probably couldn't control herself!
