Chapter 2413 Meet the City Lord
Lu Ye had no idea how strong this woman was, but he had just fought with the dead middle-aged man and knew clearly that he was no match for her.

But such a powerful Hedao master died silently at the hands of this woman. This shows that the woman's strength is definitely much stronger than that of the middle-aged man.

The key point is that Lu Ye can’t understand what kind of temper the other person has.

When they first met, the woman didn't care about him at all and didn't even try to stop him from leaving Hedao City.

Just now the middle-aged man praised the woman for her kindness, but in the blink of an eye she passed away.

After just this brief contact, the woman gave Lu Ye the impression that she was moody and would kill people without blinking an eye. How could such a person be easy to deal with?

We have to find a way to get out of here!

"By the way, you won't tell anyone, will you?" The woman suddenly seemed to remember something, and her eyes became deep as she looked at Lu Ye.

Lu Ye suddenly felt as if he was being stared at by a dark, poisonous snake, and his skin felt cold all over.

"No, I don't even know you and I don't know where to tell on you!" Lu Ye shook his head decisively.

"That's right..." The woman pointed at her red lips with some hesitation on her face, as if she was considering how to deal with Lu Ye.

For a moment, Lu Ye clearly felt a fatal threat from her eyes, which made him very uneasy and he was on high alert.

Soon the woman made up her mind and looked at Lu Ye with shining eyes: "I saved you, so you will be mine from now on!"

"Hmm?" Lu Ye couldn't keep up with the woman's unconventional thoughts for a moment.

"Since you are mine, you can't do anything bad to me in the future!" the woman said to herself.

"what?"

"I'll leave my mark on you!" The woman raised her hand happily, and a red light appeared.

Lu Ye instinctively wanted to resist, but then he thought that resisting at this moment would only anger the other party, and judging from the other party's tone, this so-called mark should not be something fatal.

As soon as the thought came to his mind, the red light appeared on his forehead.

Lu Ye’s head jerked back.

When he came back to his senses, he found that there was an extra object in his sea of ​​consciousness. It was the same worm-like thing that had crawled out of the middle-aged man's ear before.

It seemed like a dead object, lying motionless and steady in the sea of ​​​​consciousness, but Lu Ye immediately judged that this was a means for the woman to restrain and control himself.

Secretly he breathed a sigh of relief.

If this is the case, then there is no need to worry. When you need it, you can use the power of the talent tree to burn the insect to death, and thus get rid of the woman's control.

When he raised his eyes, the woman was already standing in front of him. Lu Ye didn't even notice how she got here.

This strength is indeed much greater than mine.

Trying to remain calm, he heard the woman ask with concern, "Are you feeling well?"

Lu Ye shook his head slowly.

"That's good!" The woman was relieved. She looked Lu Ye up and down with a smile, and looked very satisfied. "Follow me well, I will take good care of you."

Lu Ye didn't know whether to laugh or cry. What was wrong with the tone of voice used to coax a child?

However, from this, he became more certain of one thing. Although this woman was strong, her mind did not seem very mature. Generally speaking, there were only two possibilities in this situation. One was that the woman's mind itself was damaged, and the other was that she did not have much experience.

He couldn't figure out what kind of condition the woman was in, so he could only observe further.

No matter what, my life and property are saved for now.

"Call me and let me hear it." The woman looked at Lu Ye with some interest.

Lu Ye blinked and asked tentatively: "Madam?"

He didn't know where the lady was from, but that was what the middle-aged man who had just died called her.

Then Lu Ye knew that he had called the wrong name, because the face of "Madam" fell at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She probably doesn't like this name...

"grown ups?"

His already gloomy face gradually relaxed a lot.

Lu Ye had an idea in his mind, and immediately clasped his fists and said in a sonorous voice: "Greetings, sir!"

The woman's expression softened, and she reminded Lu Ye: "From now on, this is my Hedao City!"

Lu Ye was suddenly filled with joy and said, "I am Lu Ye, your humble servant. I am honored to meet you, Lord City Lord. From now on, I am willing to follow you and serve you at your service. I hope that you will unify the world and become famous in Xingyuan one day!"

The city lord finally smiled happily: "Lu Ye, listen to my orders. I will appoint you as the Grand Commander of Yuanxi City's defense. I hope you can fulfill your duties and responsibilities in the future, and live and die with Yuanxi City, and advance and retreat together!"

"..."

How come we're playing house now?
Lu Ye secretly complained in his heart, his expression was stern: "I obey your orders!"

However, Lu Ye finally knew the woman's name. Since she named this Hedao City Yuan Xi, Yuan Xi must be her name.

As the first Grand Commander of Yuanxi City Defense, Lu Ye felt that he had an obligation to remind the city lord in front of him: "Sir, isn't the name of Hedao City inappropriate? If the news gets out, won't your whereabouts be exposed?"

Lu Ye thought she would think about it seriously, but Yuan Xi waved her hand nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, it's exposed, it's no big deal."

Who was it that wanted to take precautions just now? How come it's no big deal in the blink of an eye?

Lu Ye just felt that the middle-aged man’s death was too unjust.

"Hedao City is just being built, so this will be the case for now. You should practice hard and tell me if you need anything. This city lord will work with you to make Yuanxi City bigger and stronger. One day, Yuanxi City will stand at the top of the world and be worshipped by hundreds of millions of Hedao Cities."

Yuan Xi was full of ambition, so Lu Ye certainly didn't dare to pour cold water on her. He kept saying that he would never leave the city lord and would advance and retreat together with him.

Yuan Xi continued to patrol Hedao City, and Lu Ye found a remote place to stay.

Lu Ye had not expected that he would suddenly become the Grand Commander-in-Chief of the Hedao City. However, at present, there were only two people in the entire Hedao City, namely him, the Grand Commander and the City Lord, and Hedao City was a dilapidated one, so the title of Grand Commander-in-Chief was of no value at all.

Even though Hedao City has been abandoned for who knows how long, Yuan Xi still has the idea of ​​making it bigger and stronger. Lu Ye feels that the task is arduous and there is a long way to go.

After a brief contact, it is certain that Yuan Xi will not have any ill will towards him in the short term. In this way, Lu Ye is not in a hurry to leave here.

Not to mention whether he has the chance to leave, even if he really leaves, would other places be safer than Yuanxi City?
If I stay here, at least I still have Yuan Xi. Although she has some mental problems, she is really strong.

As for Yuan Xi's ambitions, Lu Ye actually didn't take them seriously. He just thought that she was just in a momentary mood and might get bored soon.

Things like this always happen in this world. The initially beautiful vision cannot withstand the cruel test of reality. When all the edges are smoothed out, dreams become just dreams.

Lu Ye carefully studied the anomaly in the Divine Sea and was sure that it posed no threat to him, so he was completely relieved.

But he still underestimated Yuan Xi's determination!
Because in the following period of time, this dilapidated Hedao City was undergoing tremendous changes every day, and Yuan Xi was actually rebuilding this city with his own strength.

Repairing the damaged buildings is not a difficult task, but the difficult part is the layout of the entire Hedao City's formation.

Yuan Xi’s attainments in the art of formations are absolutely extremely high, because every day a large number of intricate and complex formation patterns appear in various places in Hedao City.

Lu Ye had no interest at first, but later when he had nothing to do, he simply started helping Yuan Xi.

Yuan Xi actually did not hide anything. Whenever Lu Ye asked her about the formation, she would answer him carefully. This showed that at certain times, her mind was very pure.

Of course, it is not ruled out that she really regards Lu Ye as her own.

In a short period of time, Lu Ye's attainments in the art of formations actually improved greatly, which was an unexpected gain.

Yuan Xi was busy for two months without stopping for a moment.

Two months later, the basic framework of the Hedao City formation had been built. All that remained was to fill in various details into this framework, which was not something that could be accomplished in a short period of time.

If Yuan Xi really wanted to perfect the details of the entire Hedao City formation, it would take at least ten to eight years for him to succeed alone, and the resources consumed during this period would inevitably be extremely huge.

She finally rested.

Lu Ye stayed in his own Grand Dutong Palace, Yuan Xi was in the City Lord's Mansion...

Regardless of whether it is the Grand Commander's Hall or the City Lord's Mansion, they are actually just simple buildings that have been renovated. However, Yuan Xi solemnly made two plaques with a few large crooked characters on them and hung them on the doors of the two buildings, as if it would be unformal if he did not do so.

Lu Ye let her do whatever she wanted.

Anyway, no matter how formal it is, there are only two living people in this city, and others can't see it.

One day, Lu Ye was practicing hard. When he looked up, he suddenly found Yuan Xi standing in front of him and was startled.

After calming himself down, Lu Ye quickly stood up and said, "Meet the City Lord."

Yuan Xi is just like a little child, with no other hobbies. As long as she hears others call her "Lord of the City" a few times a day, she will be in a particularly good mood.

After spending some time together recently, Lu Ye has figured out what she is thinking.

Yuan Xi was in a good mood indeed. With a smile on her face, she turned around and said, "Follow me!"

Lu Ye pondered for a moment, then took a step forward to follow.

Since Yuan Xi came here, he has not left the house. He was busy setting up the basic framework of the city's formation some time ago. He has been idle for a few days recently and now he doesn't know what to do.

However, since it was the city lord's order, Lu Ye, the city defense commander, certainly could not resist.

Soon the two of them left Yuanxi City and flew straight into the distance.

Some time ago, Lu Ye tried to find out Yuan Xi's background, but he didn't get much information. He thought Yuan Xi was a human, but later found out that she was not.

Yuan Xi is from the Chi tribe.

Lu Ye had encountered this race during the battle between the Sons of Xingyuan. It was said that this was a race that separated from the human race in ancient times. Therefore, if one only looked at the appearance of the Red Clan and the human race, there was basically no difference, but there were many differences inside.
