Proud Evil God Concubine

Chapter 1188 City of Death (Seventeen)
Long Qingyue turned to look at him, "What's wrong?"

"I felt a call just now, and it seemed to come from this mansion." Qin Lieyan said with deep eyes.

Long Qingyue was taken aback, her eyes narrowed, she looked up at the mansion shrouded in the moonlight, "Could it be that the mysterious relic is just under the city lord's mansion?"

Qin Lieyan's face was hidden in the dim light and shadow, and he couldn't see the emotion in his eyes, but there seemed to be doubts in his voice, "I don't know, but we can find a chance to sneak in and have a look."

Hearing this, Long Qingyue raised a slight smile on her lips, "Well, you can have this."

Qin Lieyan nodded, looked back at the City Lord's Mansion, then held Long Qingyue's hand, and said, "Let's go, let's go back to the inn first."

The next day, early in the morning, Long Qingyue and Qin Lieyan woke up and washed up briefly before leaving the inn.Since they were new to the City of Death, they were not very clear about the situation inside, so the two decided to find someone to inquire about the situation in the City Lord's Mansion.

The two came to a relatively prosperous material shop on the street, pretending to be customers buying weapon materials, and inquired about the news by the way, because Long Qingyue and Qin Lieyan looked gentle and kind, and they were generous, so the shopkeeper also He was very enthusiastic, and said in a continuous manner: "I think the two of you are new to the city of death, it looks very unfamiliar."

"The shopkeeper has good eyesight. My husband and I were hunted by enemies outside, so we had to hide here." Qin Lieyan frowned and said with a sad face.

"People who come here are basically to avoid being chased and killed by their enemies." The shopkeeper said: "Since the two of you are here, it's best not to make too much publicity. There are dragons and snakes mixed here, and murder and robbery can be seen everywhere. It's best not to go to bed at night." Go out, don't go to remote places."

"Then won't these people trouble you?" Long Qingyue asked curiously.

"All the merchants here have paid protection fees to the City Lord's Mansion, and they dare not cause trouble on the City Lord's Mansion." The shopkeeper said with a little disdain.

Long Qingyue nodded suddenly, "The City Lord's Mansion?"

"That's right, the City Lord's Mansion is the person in charge of the entire Death City! However, there are still five major families in the Death City that cannot be messed with. The strength of these five families is growing day by day, and they are increasingly ignoring City Lord Xie. Instead..." The shopkeeper quickly stopped talking halfway through, looked up and looked outside the door, he was relieved to see no one, and secretly depressed that he said something he shouldn't have said.

After a pause, he looked up at Long Qingyue and Qin Lieyan, "In short, if you want to survive here safely, don't cause trouble, don't meddle in other people's business, that's fine."

"The inheritance and foundation of the City Lord's Mansion for thousands of years cannot be easily shaken by others. The shopkeeper is overthinking." Qin Lieyan said with a gentle expression.

The shopkeeper sighed softly, and said: "The City Lord's Mansion has indeed been passed down for thousands of years. City Lord Xie is powerful, righteous and generous, but City Lord Xie has only one son in his life, and Young Master Xie was born with a strange disease. City Lord Xie No matter how many doctors have been invited, they can't cure it. And City Lord Xie has spent almost all of his energy and financial resources on Young Master Xie. The City Lord's Mansion looks beautiful on the surface, but in fact it has already..."

Long Qingyue and Qin Lieyan looked at each other, and saw the twinkling light in each other's eyes. They were still thinking about how to get in, but now they don't have to worry.

The shopkeeper didn't continue talking, because a new customer had already arrived at the door of the store.
