Traveling through another world as a sacrifice

Chapter 209
In September, the air is cool, and the change of seasons has coated the vegetation in the city lord's mansion with a layer of golden yellow. At this time, the sun is not as fierce as in summer, and when a gust of autumn wind hits, you can already feel the slightest coolness.

It has been four full days since the murder occurred in the City Lord's Mansion. Although Claire has tried his best to suppress the news, the matter has spread to the outside world, and it has become more and more outrageous under the spread of word of mouth.
Don't be afraid of right and wrong, just be afraid of people's words. The imagination of ordinary people is endless. The number of deaths has changed from hundreds to thousands, and the reasons are also very absurd.Just as the rumors from the outside world intensified, someone in the City Lord's Mansion didn't know anything about it.

In the huge city lord's mansion, there are fallen leaves flying everywhere, and the servants are working hard with brooms in hand. One servant was tired from sweeping and was about to stand up straight and twist his back when he was caught by a sudden sound from the next window. Startled; "Is that what people say outside?"

Claire clenched his fists tightly, his immature face was already distorted, he looked sharply at the adjutant in front of him, his amber eyes were burning with raging anger, it was bright and refreshing in autumn, but the anger in his heart was getting stronger and stronger, it was almost It's almost as hot as the sun.

Inside the room, the adjutant stood upright. He only felt that the blood in his body seemed to be coagulated, and the biting chill continued to penetrate into his skin. If it wasn't for his duty, he really wanted to leave this room immediately.

As Claire's adjutant, he knew exactly what to say and what not to say, so when he heard the rumors, Rhodes didn't intend to tell Claire, but now that the rumors intensified, he had to report the truth to Claire.

These years, Rhodes rarely saw Claire angry, but the boy in front of him was so angry, the level was completely beyond his imagination. Under the other party's glaring, Rhodes swallowed his saliva, and he said cautiously; " Yes, it is."

"Damn, they actually said that about me, I'm so mad!" Claire slapped the table angrily, he felt his heart beating uncontrollably, his eyes were red with grievance and anger, and his hideous appearance was like It was as if he wanted to eat people, which made the adjutant opposite him break out in a cold sweat.

These days, Claire has been busy dealing with those people's funeral affairs, and he doesn't even have time to sleep. But at this moment, when he was in a state of desperation, hearing such rumors would almost blow him up.

Ever since he was a child, he has been subjected to gossip. At that time, he could only choose to endure it because he was young. But now, as the lord of a city, he can completely eradicate those talkative people. Since this is the case... Claire hooked slightly The corner of his mouth pursed, and a stern look flashed across his eyes.

The adjutant has been staring at Claire's expression. Based on his understanding of Claire, he naturally understands the meaning of that look just now. Just because he understood, the adjutant's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said before Claire could speak; "My lord, don't you I want……"

Although the adjutant didn't finish what he said, Claire understood it very well. He patted the adjutant on the shoulder and sneered, "Since you already understand, you don't need me to teach you, do you?"

"My lord, you can't do this." Although he knew that this would anger Claire, the adjutant had no choice but to bite the bullet and continued; "Now people outside are talking, is it possible that the lord wants to kill everyone in the city?"

The adjutant's words were like a basin of cold water that instantly poured Claire's body from head to toe, and his heart, which was still throbbing with anger and blood just now, was chilly at the moment. Although Claire was still angry, she also understood that what the adjutant said made sense.

Even so, being so wronged for no reason, Claire couldn't swallow his breath. He glared at the adjutant angrily and said, "Then what do you think?"

"This..." The adjutant hesitated for a moment, and after a pause, he seemed to have thought of something, and flattered Claire with bright eyes: "My lord, I think there is a person who may have a way..."

"Oh, do you mean..." Claire's eyes became brighter, and he already knew the answer.

At this time, in a room not far from Claire's residence, Wang Xiaoyu was lying on the bed looking at the sachet in her hand boredly, her eyes were lowered, her eyes were a little blurred, as if she was thinking about something.

"I just got two pieces like this?" It has been four days since the incident happened, and Wang Xiaoyu still can't believe that he will be so lucky. ?
Although the appearance of the cloaked man was a bit unexpected, it was far less shocking than Victor. She had contacted him many times, but she never found out that the other party was a supernatural being. What Wang Xiaoyu couldn't understand was that Victor The reason for saving her more is actually thinking about those 680 gold coins, this is really...

"I don't understand, I really don't understand..." Wang Xiaoyu couldn't understand Victor's act of sacrificing himself to save others. She muttered to herself, thinking about the reason behind Victor's rescue. real intention.She always felt that a shrewd person like Ye Ye shouldn't act so impulsively.

"Don't understand what?" Suddenly, a gentle voice sounded from the right, and Yani's figure appeared beside the bed. He was wearing very dark clothes today, and there were some stains on his fair face. Zhang's exquisite appearance is enough to make people ignore this stain.

At this time, the sun was just rising slowly, and the sunlight outside the window shone on Yanni's body bit by bit. With his exquisite appearance, he was so beautiful that he was not like a real person.Yani smiled lightly, his pale golden eyes were even more dazzling than the sun, he walked slowly to Wang Xiaoyu, stretched out his hand and handed Wang Xiaoyu a bright and dripping rose; "Here."

At this time, Wang Xiaoyu was already lost in Yani's gorgeous smile. Hearing the other party's question, her sanity was finally pulled back a little bit. After realizing what she had done just now, Wang Xiaoyu blushed, and she deliberately looked at Rose. Said: "Why are you here?"

"I helped the gardener trim the garden this morning. I'll come to see you when I'm done." Yani still smiled lightly. He looked at Wang Xiaoyu with burning eyes. There was a flash of disappointment and he said: "By the way, what were you muttering by yourself just now?"

"Yani, why do you think that man saved me? Could it be that he was really reluctant to part with the 680 gold coins?" Wang Xiaoyu expressed her own doubts. She looked at Yanni expectantly, hoping that the other party would tell her an answer.

"Sure enough, she still cares about that person..." Seeing that Wang Xiaoyu was asking about Victor, Yani's heart tightened, and he shook his eyelids, feeling very complicated.Also as a man, he knew very well that Victor liked Wang Xiaoyu, even though he was dead, his heart was still sour.

Although that man is dead, if you tell Wang Xiaoyu that the other party likes her, then that man will definitely leave an impression in Wang Xiaoyu's heart, but if you don't tell me, that man is too pitiful, and he will die Misunderstood by Wang Xiaoyu for being petty.

After thinking about it for a while, Yanni finally softened his heart. He took a sneak look at Wang Xiaoyu, and seeing Wang Xiaoyu frowning tightly, Yanni said lightly, "Xiaoyu, don't you understand?"

"Understand what?" Wang Xiaoyu looked at Yanni wonderingly.

"He likes you..." Yani sighed faintly. Although it was his love rival who died, he couldn't be happy at all. Instead, he felt a bit sad.

"Uh? What, how is this possible?" Wang Xiaoyu's eyes widened, and she jumped up in fright. If it wasn't for Yani's serious look, she would definitely suspect that he was joking.Even if the other party says that anyone likes her, it is fine, but if it is that man, she really...doesn't believe it.

Yani looked at Wang Xiaoyu indifferently. Although he didn't have any emotion on the surface, there was a burst of ecstasy in his heart, because he saw Wang Xiaoyu's reaction and knew that his worries were unnecessary. I like that man.

"Actually, that man..." Once he figured it out, the depression in Yanni's heart was swept away, his gloomy eyes brightened up again, he opened his mouth, and just as he was about to explain, a figure came in suddenly.

"Apollo, I need you for one thing..." Perhaps because of being too impatient, Claire didn't see Yanni when she entered the room, but found Yanni was still there when she walked halfway.

From the first time they met, Claire disliked this man named Yanni very much. Seeing that the man was also in the room, Claire stopped talking suddenly. He frowned, looked at Yanni with displeasure and said, "You Why are you here?"

Yanni knew that the other party hated him, but he always regarded the other party as a child and didn't care about it, but this time the other party acted like Wang Xiaoyu, which made Yanni feel a little unhappy, and he bent towards Claire Bending down, he said to Wang Xiaoyu from behind, "You guys talk, I'll go out first." After speaking, Yanni ignored Claire's fiery eyes and left the room carelessly.

"Damn it." Claire watched the other party's back disappear. He clenched his fists tightly, and his bad mood became worse. Although he wasn't facing Wang Xiaoyu directly, his hostility was still there Let Wang Xiaoyu behind him feel it.

"Hey, what do you want me to do?" Wang Xiaoyu coughed dryly to remind herself of her existence. After she finished speaking, Claire looked away, turned around, and hurriedly walked to Wang Xiaoyu and said; " I'm having a problem right now."

For the rest of the time, Claire was mostly talking alone. He told Wang Xiaoyu the rumors he had heard from Rhodes, especially when it came to the outside world thinking that he had slaughtered everyone for a man. His emotions were still unavoidable. excited.

Seeing Claire's angry look, Wang Xiaoyu's cheeks twitched wildly, but her heart was already hurt from laughing. In fact, she knew about this rumor a long time ago, and she even sprayed Yanni with milk when she first heard about it.However, seeing that Claire hadn't moved, she thought that the other party didn't care, and now she understands the truth.

"This group of people is too hateful, but I can't kill them all, so I came to ask what you can do." Claire gagged angrily, and he looked at Wang Xiaoyu expectantly, hoping that the other party could give him advice.

Wang Xiaoyu is not a detective or Zhuge, so there is no good way, but she saw Claire's angry look, so she leaned into the other's ear and whispered; "Actually, you can do this..."
