Chapter 993: Twilight City (11)
Long Fei had kept a low-profile when he asked Shen Yanxiao to lift the curse. The people from Blizzard City would naturally not spread the news, and Shen Yanxiao did not allow anyone from her side to speak irresponsibly, so only a few people knew of this matter.
Coupled with the fact that Geng Di, Long Fei, and Duan Hen had harassed her during the construction of Sun Never Sets, they would never imagine Long Fei and Shen Yanxiao having a good relationship.
Shen Yanxiao frowned. She felt that something was amiss with the situation in Twilight City. Even though Twilight City had obstructed the construction of Sun Never Sets, their efforts were similar to Blizzard City. Long Fei was not happy to harass Sun Never Sets, as the Vermilion Bird Family had done a great favor to his family. However, Twilight City did not show much hostility towards Sun Never Sets from the start.
However, why did Duan Hen’s attitude change so drastically after they entered the city?
Shen Yanxiao would not feel it was strange if they were treated unfairly in Fantasy Devil City. However, Duan Hen offending her without any reservations did not conform to his past behavior.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith such a huge contrast, Shen Yanxiao could not help but ponder the reason behind the sudden change.
“Teacher, this invitation says that you can bring someone with you. Who do you want to bring?” Nangong Mengmeng took the invitation and looked at the surroundings. She honestly felt that the banquet was a waste of time. However, when she thought of being by Shen Yanxiao’s side alone, she immediately put on an ‘please take me’ expression.
Shen Yanxiao directly ignored her request and said to Qi Xia who was in a daze, “Qi Xia, accompany me tonight.”
“...” Nangong Mengmeng wanted to cry.
Qi Xia shrugged his shoulders and slowly stood up under the other four’s envious and jealous gazes.
“I will do as you say.”
Shen Yanxiao nodded. There was a reason for choosing Qi Xia. The people she needed for this trip had to be black-bellied. No one would dare to claim to be number one in this aspect if Qi Xia claimed to be number two. Even though Nangong Mengmeng was likable, she was too naive. Moreover, she was already disgusted with Twilight City after everything that had happened. If she were to bring her there, perhaps the frank girl would point fingers and criticize Duan Hen on the spot.
“It’s getting late. You’ll be late if you go now. Do you want me to get someone to prepare a carriage?” Yan Yu looked at the sky and estimated that the banquet had already started for half an hour.
Shen Yanxiao shook her head.
Qi Xia and Shen Yanxiao looked at each other. At the same time, both of them found a glint of tacit understanding in each other’s eyes.
...
The City Lord’s Mansion of Twilight City was brightly lit and the sound of the zither could be heard.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe young man seated at the head of the table had a clean, handsome appearance, but there was no expression on his handsome facial features. Sitting beside him was an old man in his seventies. He had a white beard and wore a dark green long robe. From afar, he looked noble and virtuous.
However, everyone present knew that the main character ofTwilight City tonight was not Duan Hen who was seated on the main seat, but the old man.
“Elder Wen, it has been many years since we last met, but you are still as elegant as ever.” Dressed in a luxurious attire of a noble, Geng Di gracefully stood up and held a cup of wine as he saluted the silent old man.
“City Lord Geng, I trust you have been well since we last met.” Elder Wen raised his cup in response.
“Elder Wen, how did you have the time to come to the Forsaken Land? If not for my father’s letter, I would not have known about this.” Geng Di’s smile was extremely hypocritical.
“I just came to take a look.” Elder Wen smiled.
Geng Di exchanged a few more pleasantries with Elder Wen, but Long Fei who sat opposite him frowned.
