After eating and drinking his fill, Lu Yuguan put down his bowl and burped contentedly.

"belch."

"Let's get down to business."

He knocked on the table to draw everyone's attention back, "Shen He, go back and report. Ji Xian will definitely not let this go."

"Yes."

Zi Xiaoya nodded.

"Add to that the attitude of Prince Qin towards Qi Wei, and he might even attack us."

Li Zhonglin's face darkened: "Indeed."

Zhao Zimo nodded: "The most urgent task is to restore all strength."

Qi Wei played with the teacup and said indifferently, "Although West City is remote, it is quiet and peaceful. I am here, so I can still have a say."

Lu Yuguan's eyes lit up: "You mean..."

"Hide your strength and bide your time," Qi Wei said with a slight curl of his lips. "Wait until we find the tail of the demon cultivator, then follow the clues and find the way back."

Everyone looked at each other.

feasible.

Zhao Zimo lowered his voice and suddenly said, "But if the demon cultivators come to find us first, it may not be so easy to defend West City."

"how?"

"Are we alone not enough?"

Li Chonglin raised his eyebrows.

"Those with cultivation will naturally deal with the demonic cultivators," Zhao Zimo shook his head, "but what about the people in the city?"

"Leave it to us!"

Zi Xiaoya dragged Shangguan Qi and said.

Lu Yuguan nodded.

According to Zi Xiaoya's physical fitness, although she has no cultivation, she can still fight against a hundred people alone.

Xiaozhima can be considered to have a combat force of about fifty people.

As for Shangguan Qi...

Lu Yuguan glanced at Shangguan Qi, who blinked and looked harmless.

"What's the matter, Master Lu?"

"It's okay."

"Why are you being so polite to me? We're all family," Shangguan Qi said bluntly, "Just tell me what you need, ah!"

"..."

Zhao Zimo added, "If the Qin army were to besiege West City, they would need at least 200,000 troops. How much combat power does West City have?"

Qi Wei scratched his head.

"Um……"

"They are all old, weak, sick and disabled, less than 5,000 in total."

Lu Yuguan snapped his fingers, his mouth twitching. "So... one old man has to deal with forty big men?"

Everyone was silent.

"It would be great if there was a formation master," Qi Wei sighed, "If we could make something like the Xuanyu Sect's mountain protection formation, no, even if it was a hundred times weaker, it would still be enough."

"It can definitely protect the people of West City!"

"Where can we find formation masters in this world?" Li Chonglin rolled his eyes at him.

Even in the Dongxuan Continent, formation masters who can create large-scale formations are all in high demand without exception.

Everyone fell into deep thought.

Lu Yuguan touched his chin and said, "If there is a large defensive magical weapon, can it be used?"

"Naturally."

"It's just not as good as a formation with a formation master, and it can't be maintained at all times."

Qi Wei said.

Li Zhonglin glanced at him and said, "That's a nice thought. Are you still dreaming at this hour?"

"Yuguan, do you mean... there is a defensive magic weapon?" Zhao Zimo asked.

Lu Yuguan chuckled.

He took out the magic weapon that had long been covered in dust from the system backpack.

A blue circle of light was placed on the table.

"this!……"

"Hanhai Treasure Mirror?"

"How come the treasure of the Canghai Mermaid Clan is in your hands?"

Everyone couldn't help but exclaim.

Lu Yuguan scratched his head embarrassedly: "It's also due to various reasons..."

Talk about it.

I'm really sorry.

……

[Side Quest丨Return the Vast Sea Mirror (10 Stars)]

[Current progress: 0/1]

……

Lu Yuguan originally wanted to go to Canghai to return the magic weapon left by the previous owner of Qianhua Tower, but he forgot about it due to his busy schedule in Canghai. In addition, due to the attitude of the mermaids towards him, Lu Yuguan simply kept the magic mirror.

"Great!"

"With this, we can definitely stop the army outside the city!"

Qi Wei said in surprise.

Lu Yuguan raised his head happily.

【Host】

【A little proud】

The system teases.

"Ah, that's all thanks to my forgetfulness," Lu Yuguan snorted. "I'll just consider it a favor I owe the mermaids. I'll pay it back when I get back."

After all matters are arranged, everyone should rest and prepare themselves, as no one knows when the demon cultivator will arrive.

Qi Wei played the role of the prince with great ease.

According to Li Chonglin, he was used to ordering people around and had a very arrogant temper.

Xicheng City Lord's Mansion.

The steward in the palace nodded and bowed, sweating profusely. His Royal Highness King Ling was guarding the West City, and he dared not neglect him.

"Your Majesty."

"The accommodation has been arranged!"

Qi Wei responded calmly, his eyes sweeping over the crowd.

He pointed to an exquisite courtyard at the innermost part, "Yuguan, you live there. This Saint... ahem, this King specially reserved it for you."

Lu Yuguan looked in the direction of the finger.

The courtyard was filled with pavilions, towers, and lush flowers and trees, and two pretty maids were standing at the door.

"This servant greets Master Lu."

Lu Yuguan: “…”

Damn royalty indeed.

He turned his head to look at the other two. Qi Wei smiled and pointed to the other end: "Second brother, third brother, you live over there."

Zhao Zimo and Li Chonglin were arranged to stay in the side courtyard.

It was half of the city lord's mansion away from Lu Yuguan's residence.

Li Chonglin's face turned dark instantly.

"Qi Wei?"

"What do you mean!"

Qi Wei raised his eyebrows and said innocently, "Junior Brother Lu is weak and needs to rest. The courtyard next door is the quietest and the maids are also considerate."

"What's wrong?"

Li Zhonglin was so angry that he wanted to draw his sword: "You fool..."

Lu Yuguan quickly grabbed him and said like coaxing a child, "Stop making a fuss, stay here first!"

Li Chonglin snorted coldly and then stopped.

Zhao Zimo shrugged helplessly.

In his opinion, it was a loss of face to compete with Qi Wei and Li Chonglin.

A good man.

You can't embarrass your wife in public.

*

It's quiet at night.

Lu Yuguan lay on the soft big bed, tossing and turning.

"Tong..."

【What? 】

"Does this count as...a beauty causing trouble?"

【…】

【Should be called Blue Root of Evil】

Lu Yuguan: "...Thank you, I'm not comforted at all."

He thought of Li Chonglin's frustrated expression during the day, and felt like laughing, yet also a little helpless.

There was a gentle knock on the door.

"Master Lu, this servant will bring you some tranquilizing soup."

Lu Yuguan stood up and opened the door.

There was not only a maid outside the door, but also two men on the left and right, with faces as sour as the bottom of a pot.

Li Chonglin.

Zhao Zimo.

Lu Yuguan: "Why are you two here?"

Li Zhonglin snorted coldly: "Take a walk."

Zhao Zimo said expressionlessly, "Look at the moon."

Lu Yuguan looked up.

The sky was covered with dark clouds and there was not even a moon in the sky.

The maid was so frightened that her hands were shaking and the soup bowl was clanging.

“Come in…come in…”

Lu Yuguan stepped aside.

Without hesitation, the two men strode into the room, their eyes scanning the area like searchlights.

“It’s quite clean.”

Li Chonglin sat down on the bed and refused to leave.

Zhao Zimo began to check the windows.

“Not strong enough.”

"I'll reinforce it tomorrow."

Lu Yuguan was helpless: "This is a place to live, not a cell."

The maid put down the soup bowl and ran away.

Omg!

The looks of these two gentlemen are so scary!
