Chapter 452: Visiting the City Lord’s Mansion at Night

"Is anyone crying?"

"Probably so, let's go take a look first."

Following the direction from which the cry came, the two of them hurried forward, and then stopped in front of the gate of a villa.

The two fierce-eyed and cold-faced guards guarding the door quickly lowered their heads respectfully when they saw Bai Chen and Chu Junran: "I've met Mr. Chen, and I've met Miss Tianfeng!"

"Um."

With a faint response, Bai Chen looked at the girl with her face sitting under the grape trellis in the yard, couldn't help but smile calmly, and walked forward.

Seeing this, the expressions of the two guards suddenly changed, and one of them stopped him with trembling palms: "Master Chen, you can't go in."

"You can't even let me in?" Bai Chen raised his eyelids and pretended to look gloomy.

They were very familiar with Zhang Linfeng's domineering behavior. Therefore, facing the person whom Zhang Linfeng wanted to please, these two guards did not dare to offend him. However, although the man put down his blocking arm, he still couldn't help but persuade: " Master Chen, I really didn’t mean to offend you, but... the person in this courtyard is the young master’s fiancée, so..."

"Oh, that's how it is."

Bai Chen glanced at the tearful woman and smiled calmly: "Since we are my future siblings, I won't bother you. Thank you both for stopping me and making me almost do something that was sorry for my brother, hahaha!"

Bai Chen patted the guard's shoulder considerately, laughed twice, gave Chu Junran a secret wink, and left.

Looking at the thin back that walked out of sight, the two guards slumped against the arch as if their bones were weak: "I never expected that Lord Chen, who is rumored to be domineering and cruel, could be so understanding and open-minded..."

In fact, he also wanted to say that this Master Chen was far better than the Young City Master, but these words could only linger in his heart.

The city lord's mansion was busy all day long, and late at night, the servants almost fell asleep on their pillows. Bai Chen and the other three responded to the city lord's sincere invitation, and finally complied with his wishes very naturally and stayed in the guest room. .

After Yang Chaoyue fell asleep, Bai Chen and Chu Junran walked out of the room.

Yang Chaoyue's experience in martial arts is still shallow, and she is not as calm as Chu Junran. Moreover, she can only write rough movements in human form, so she is easily discovered by others.

Therefore, Bai Chen did not choose to take her with him when he visited the city lord's mansion at night.

Taking advantage of the moonlight, the two of them avoided the guards with flexibility and finally arrived at the villa.

As soon as they touched the window, the screams inside made the two people's eyes suddenly glazed over.

One of the men's voices was a maniacal laugh that was clearly panting, while the other woman's voice was almost a scream.

I didn't expect that Zhang Linfeng would do this kind of thing with someone before he married her. In Xinglan Continent, doing this before marriage is extremely disrespectful to women.

Moreover, the woman kept crying and begging for mercy, and she was reluctant to listen to it. It seemed that this so-called concubinage was not as simple as imagined.

But since it happened to be at this time, Bai Chen couldn't go in and ruin his brother's good deeds, and even if the woman was really forced, now the raw rice has been cooked. It would be better to save her earlier, or wait for Zhang Linfeng to leave later. It wouldn't make much difference if he saved her again.

Bai Chen winked at Chu Junran, who had blushing cheeks. The two of them flew to the eaves, side by side, admiring the moon together silently.

"Bai Chen, this is the first time I have admired the moon with a man in my life." Chu Junran's voice was very low, but she knew that Bai Chen could hear it clearly.

Hearing this, Bai Chen also suppressed the evil fire in his heart and said calmly: "That's really an honor."

Ignoring Bai Chen's frivolous look, Chu Junran hugged his knees and sighed: "When I was a child, I was tasked with revitalizing the Phoenix Temple. I also hope that one day I can lead the Phoenix Temple to stand on the Xinglan Continent like the Suzaku Emperor. However, my grandpa told me that the Suzaku Emperor was killed by an evil black dragon, which led to the decline of my Phoenix Temple to where it is today! As long as I, Chu Junran, am alive for one day, I will pay homage to my dead ancestors. I swear that I will kill my enemies with my own hands in the future and avenge the Suzaku ancestors!"

"..."

That black dragon, isn't it me...

With a hint of bitterness in the corner of his mouth, Bai Chen finally understood that there was an indelible blood feud between him and Chu Junran, which was destined to transform them from companions to mortal enemies.

Not noticing anything strange about Bai Chen, Chu Junran was still mumbling to himself, "I don't know where the scholar is. I must get the treasure from the Tomb of Tianhai. This is my first revenge against the evil dragon." step!"

Take revenge on me...?

There was a helpless sigh in his heart, and Bai Chen's eyes were filled with sadness: "Junran, I will definitely help you get the treasure from the Tomb of Tianhai, and I also hope that you will become stronger and stronger."

"I am also looking forward to you. For the Tomb of Tianhai, I only want the treasure that can awaken the Suzaku Holy Flame. As for the rest, you can take it!"

"Well……"

As we all know, the treasures in the Tomb of Tianhai are the relics of the ancestors of the Phoenix Temple, and they should belong to the Phoenix Temple!

However, what Chu Junran said now was...?

Turning to stare at her cold and charming face, Bai Chen asked doubtfully: "You mean, you are not going to tell your grandpa the secret of the Tomb of Tianhai?"

"Well! If you tell grandpa, he will definitely send strong men. When the time comes, facing the elders of the clan, even I will not be able to steal the treasure quietly. This is too unfair to you. , after all, the search for the Tomb of Tianhai is all because of your intelligence..."

"Thank you, Junran!"

Bai Chen interrupted her and said affectionately.

Suddenly he became serious, and his face was a bit more handsome than usual. When Chu Junran looked at him emotionally, his heart beat faster.

As the two people touched each other and looked at each other, the atmosphere fell into silent silence again.

About an hour later, the commotion below finally subsided, and Zhang Linfeng's voice also sounded: "Haha, your husband is awesome, Qin'er, you just need to rest. After tomorrow, you will truly belong to my Zhang family." of people!"

After a while, Zhang Linfeng's voice came again, but compared to the gentleness before, his voice at this time was a bit cold and low.

"I advise you not to have any evil thoughts. If you dare to escape tonight, then your father will be thrown into the barren mountains to feed the dogs! Alas, he is the future father-in-law after all. You know, I don't want to do that either. Do it, so you better not make me!”

After throwing out the last words fiercely, the door was finally pushed open, and soon Zhang Linfeng was also in Bai Chen's sight, and walked away swaggeringly.
