Afterwards, Li Hanyi brought Lei Wujie back to Cangshan. Meanwhile, Mo Luyi and Zhao Yuzhen followed the others to the City Lord's Mansion.

As soon as she entered the City Lord's Mansion, Mo Luyi stared at Xiao Se with scorching eyes and said expressionlessly, "Butler Xiao really grew up obsessed with money! He asked for 800,000 taels of silver right out of the box!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Se raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile, and responded: "I just thought that this might help attract you, senior. If you don't come..." Having said this, he deliberately paused and kept the suspense.

Mo Luyi understood what he meant and took over the conversation, "If I hadn't come, you could have easily gotten the 800,000 taels of silver, right?"

Xiao Se nodded without disguising anything, and said seriously, "That's right. After all, anything involving money is a big deal to me."

Hearing this, Mo Luyi was stunned at first, then nodded thoughtfully and said softly: "Well, what you said does make sense. In that case..." She suddenly stopped talking halfway, and her eyes became a little playful.

Seeing this, Xie Xuan turned to look at Sikong Changfeng and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Didn't you say before that she had a way to heal his injuries? Why does it seem like she's offended him now?"

Sikong Changfeng scratched his head and replied with a wry smile: "Yes, I thought everything would go smoothly, but we seem to have offended someone." As he said that, he sighed helplessly.

Xie Xuan looked in the direction of Xiao Se and Mo Luyi, then returned his gaze to Sikong Changfeng and said slowly, "In my opinion, the word 'seems' can be omitted. Looking at the situation, you have definitely offended them!"

Xiao Se looked at Mo Luyi calmly and said slowly, "Senior, just say whatever you want to say." His eyes were clear and firm, as if he had already seen through what the other person was thinking.

Mo Luyi smiled slightly and said softly, "You brought me here, probably to cure your internal injuries." Her eyes were as sharp as a knife, staring straight at Xiao Se, as if she could see through the secrets deep in his heart.

Xiao Se nodded slightly and admitted frankly: "That's right. I wonder how much you want, senior." His tone was neither humble nor arrogant, neither overly humble nor arrogant.

Mo Luyi calmly extended her hand and gently gestured the number eight. Xiao Se frowned slightly at this and asked tentatively, "Eight hundred thousand taels?" He thought to himself that while the sum was not small, it was not completely unacceptable.

However, Mo Luyi shook her finger gently, a sly smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she slowly said: "Eight million taels." Her voice was not loud, but it exploded in Xiao Se's ears like thunder.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Se's eyes widened in shock. He asked in disbelief, "Eight million taels? Are you kidding, Senior?"

Mo Luyi crossed her arms and sneered, "Do you think I'm joking? We, the disciples of Wangcheng Mountain, just came here to ask for the sword, and we have to pay 800,000 taels of silver as compensation. Don't you think your injury is not worth 8 million taels?" Her words were so aggressive that Xiao Se was speechless for a moment.

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Yin Luoxia led Luo Mingxuan in. As soon as Luo Mingxuan entered the room, he heard the shocking offer and couldn't help but blurt out: "Eight million taels? Why don't you just rob it!" His face was full of shock and anger, and he was obviously extremely dissatisfied with the price offered by Mo Lvyi.

Xiao Se's brows were furrowed, and his mind was filled with thoughts like a surging tide. He was rapidly thinking through various possible responses, trying to find the most appropriate solution.

At this moment, a graceful figure came over. She walked lightly to the empty space closest to Mo Luyi and sat down. She stared at Mo Luyi with her beautiful eyes and said softly, "Miss Mo, isn't your price a little too high? I hope Miss Mo can consider it again."

Upon hearing this, Mo Luyi slowly turned her head, glanced at Yin Luoxia indifferently, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile. She asked, "Expensive? Why don't you go and ask them and see if they think the price I offered is expensive!" After that, she raised her jade hand and casually pointed at Xiao Se and Sikong Changfeng.

Seeing that they were silent, Mo Luyi smiled slightly and spoke again: "It's okay, everyone, don't worry, just think about it slowly. In the near future, we will stay in this Xueyue City." Her voice was crisp and pleasant, as beautiful as a yellow oriole singing out of a valley.

After saying this, Mo Lvyi turned to look at Zhao Yuzhen beside her, her eyes as gentle as water, and said softly: "Let's go, Yuzhen, this is your first time down the mountain. Since you have come to Snow Moon City, let's go and see the romantic scenery of Snow Moon City together."

Zhao Yuzhen nodded slightly in agreement. Standing tall and straight like a pine tree, with a handsome face, he and Mo Luyi walked side by side, looking like a pair of golden boys and beautiful girls, attracting everyone's attention. They walked out of the room with light steps, and their figures gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

Along the way, Zhao Yuzhen often turned his head to gaze at Mo Lvyi's beautiful face, and a ripple of emotion could not help but rise in his heart. Suddenly, as if thinking of something interesting, Mo Lvyi raised the corner of her mouth and said to Zhao Yuzhen with a smile: "Yuzhen, I think we should go to Leimen someday."

Zhao Yuzhen nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay."

Mo Luyi was surprised to see this and asked doubtfully, "I haven't even told you what you're going to do at Leimen yet, and you agreed so readily. Aren't you afraid I'll sell you out?"

Zhao Yuzhen smiled shyly upon hearing this and explained, "This is my first time stepping down from the mountains into the Jianghu, and I know very little about this place. Therefore, everything is entirely up to you."

After hearing this, Mo Luyi was stunned at first, then nodded slightly and smiled: "That's true, but we are not going to Leimen to have fun this time! But we are going to collect a debt. After all, who would think that this money is too much, right?" As she spoke, she blinked her lively big eyes, looking playful and cute.

Zhao Yuzhen paused for a moment before speaking, "Are you referring to the incident when Lei Yunhe went up the mountain?"

Mo Luyi nodded slightly and replied, "That's right! Although the amount of silver is not much, we can't be bullied for no reason, right? Speaking of this, Xueyue City owes us a lot!" Mo Luyi suddenly remembered that Li Hanyi went up the mountain three times and used Yuexi Huachen three times.
