But Zeng Wenyu could not understand this matter at all. Even though he knew that the situation tonight was controlled by Wang Ke, he still felt that it was very dangerous to involve Mu Zhi in this matter.

Take what happened just now for example. Those civil officials also had very high cultivation. If they were not so persistent in wanting to leave Wang Ke's mansion, if they were not unresponsive, but used Mu Zhi as a hostage? Although Mu Zhi's cultivation was at the same level as theirs, what would happen to Mu Zhi if so many cultivators at the level of consciousness attacked her together? If Mu Zhi was really in danger, how would he explain it to Mu Qiao?

Zeng Wenyu thought so in his mind, but he did not show it on his face, so when Wang Ke and Feng Kan looked at him, they thought Zeng Wenyu did not have any big ideas, and they had already prepared something to compensate Mu Zhi, but now there was not enough time, and they had to go to Xinkang City to take over the next things. As for apology and compensation, they could only wait until they had completely taken control of the situation in Xinkang City.

Seeing that Zeng Wenyu's face had little expression, Mu Zhi, who had been with him for so many days, reacted. She knew that Zeng Wenyu must be angry at the moment, but Wang Min and Feng Kan's wife had not left yet, and she couldn't bring herself to apologize to Zeng Wenyu.

Seeing that Wang Ke and Feng Kan had already left, Zeng Wenyu stood up from his seat and bowed to Wang Min and Mrs. Feng Kan: "You two, since there is such a big thing tonight, I will not disturb you and will leave first."

"Well, I'm sorry for what happened today. Go back to your room and have a good rest."

Such a big thing happened suddenly, and Wang Min was also considering how to deal with the subsequent impact. She did not notice the change in Zeng Wenyu's tone. Mrs. Feng Kan next to her was obviously a lady from a wealthy family. She was very polite, but from her slightly trembling hands, it could be seen that she did not expect this scene to happen today, and now she is still scared.

After saying goodbye to Wang Min and Madam Feng Kan, Zeng Wenyu left the banquet hall. When he walked next to Mu Zhi, he turned his head and glanced at Mu Zhi: "What's the matter? Sister Mu Zhi is not leaving yet, are you not full at the banquet? If not, then Sister Mu Zhi should stay here and eat more."

Without waiting for Mu Zhi to answer, Zeng Wenyu turned around and left the banquet hall, while Mu Zhi stood up with guilt on her face, said goodbye to Wang Min and Mrs. Feng Kan, and immediately chased after him.

Zeng Wenyu did not return to his room in the general's mansion, because because of what had just happened, almost everyone in the mansion had gone out. There were few people in the yard, and even the servants in the mansion on weekdays were nowhere to be seen. This situation was a good thing for Zeng Wenyu, and he walked out of the general's mansion along the empty courtyard.

There were many soldiers coming and going on the street. When they saw Zeng Wenyu, they would come up to question him, but Zeng Wenyu had a token given by Wang Ke in his hand. These soldiers looked at the token in his hand and left without even asking any questions.

Not long after, Zeng Wenyu walked to the gate of Xinkang City and showed the token in his hand to the soldier guarding the gate. The soldier guarding the gate opened a small passage and let him out of Xinkang City. After he walked out of the gate, he closed the gate again.

Looking at the closed city gate, Zeng Wenyu hung several tokens on his body on the handle of the city gate. He turned around, looked in the direction, and left to the north.

"Wait! Wait! I said wait for me!"

Before Zeng Wenyu walked far, Mu Zhi's voice came from behind Zeng Wenyu. When he heard the voice, Zeng Wenyu subconsciously paused, but only for a moment, and then he quickened his pace.

Zeng Wenyu didn't walk far before he heard a gust of wind behind him. Then a small hand grabbed his shoulder and said, "Brother, are you so cruel? Do you want to abandon your sister?"

"Alas..." Zeng Wenyu stopped and sighed, "What do you mean I want to abandon my sister? Your cultivation is higher than mine, so you can do whatever you want. I can't control you."

"Still saying such angry words? Next time if I encounter such a thing, I will inform you in advance."

"No, I don't need you to inform me of these things. After all, you are you and I am me. You are free to do whatever you want. As long as you don't hurt anyone, it has nothing to do with me."

Having said this, Zeng Wenyu lowered his left shoulder, broke free from Mu Zhi's hand, and continued to move forward.

Mu Zhi didn't hold Zeng Wenyu back anymore. She walked beside Zeng Wenyu and asked, "What? Are you angry?"

"No."

"You're still saying you're not angry? You're just short of having the words 'I'm angry' written all over your face."

"hehe."

"No, this time it was really due to an emergency. I suddenly remembered those things, and then I met General Wang and told him..."

Zeng Wenyu interrupted Mu Zhi: "Is it an emergency? You met Wang Ke early in the morning, and then what? You had discussed it at that time, right? But I didn't see you until it happened in the evening. What were you doing? Shopping, right? You didn't even think about telling me about it. Why? Would I leak these things? Or do I not need to know about this matter at all?

That's right, I don't need to know about this matter. After all, it has nothing to do with me, and neither do you. By the way, I think my senior sister's work is almost done. I will contact her first and let her take care of you when the time comes."

Mu Zhi also knew that what she did was wrong. She clearly had time to inform Zeng Wenyu during the day, but she was attracted by the new things in the city. By the time she reacted, it was already late, and when she returned to the general's mansion, the banquet was about to start. She had no time to tell Zeng Wenyu about this, so she could only follow the servants in the general's mansion to change clothes first.

"Brother, I was wrong. Please forgive me, or I will give you a couple of beatings to vent my anger?"

"Don't dare."

"So what do you want me to do to forgive me, brother?"

"I don't even dare to blame you, how can I say I forgive you?"

"Okay, okay, you're just angry right now. I'll show up again when you're no longer angry."

Mu Zhi's figure disappeared from Zeng Wenyu's sight. Zeng Wenyu was not worried about where she went. Anyway, with the restrictions left by the ghost girl, Mu Zhi could not leave too far away now, and the restrictions could also sense whether Mu Zhi was in any danger. With Mu Zhi's current strength that has recovered to the great perfection of the consciousness realm, he was not worried that there would be any monsters on this grassland that would threaten her.
