White-Robed Chief

Chapter 191 Killed

As soon as Chu Li set foot on Yuqi Island, Suru greeted him in a hurry, waving from afar.

Chu Li smiled and cupped his fists, and followed her to the third floor of the Star Observation Building.

Xiao Qi's white clothes fluttered, and the light of her sword was like water.

Seeing him coming in, Xiao Qi retracted the sword and put it back into the sheath, all the dense sword energy was contained in the scabbard without any leakage.

Chu Li admired, her swordsmanship became more and more refined, and she could retract and release freely. When she moved, she would overwhelm the sky and cover the earth, and when she was still, she would return to nothingness.

Xiao Qi handed the sword to Suru, Su pointed, and the two sat on the embroidered pier facing each other.

"How, second sister, can you agree?"

"yes."

"You still have a way!" Xiao Qi said lightly: "It's useless no matter how much I persuade my eldest brother,... In this way, I can rest assured!"

Chu Li said: "When will the envoys from Prince An's Mansion come?"

"It stands to reason that we can arrive at noon tomorrow." Xiao Qi said, "You can follow me to choose the island first."

Chu Li nodded.

Xiao Qi said: "There are still twenty islands left in the mansion, you can choose any one of them, big or small, far or near, but it's fine if it's too far away."

"Okay." Chu Li responded.

Xiao Qi took the teacup presented by Suru, and smiled: "How did you convince Second Sister?"

Chu Li smiled and said nothing.

Xiao Qi glanced at him: "Okay, just don't ask,... Also, I collected some news about Prince An's Mansion and asked Xiaoru to send it to Tianlingyuan for you. Take a look slowly and know what's in your mind."

Chu Li took the teacup from Suru and took a sip.

Xiao Qi said: "Then let's choose an island!"

She put down the teacup, Chu Li also put down, and they left the Star Observatory together.

When the three of them were about to board the boat, Chu Li said, "By the way, bring Xue Ling over there too."

"You are careful." Suru pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Xue Ling is not in the courtyard, she probably went to Yanwu Hall."

Chu Li nodded, and the three of them boarded the boat and headed east.

After sailing for thirty miles, they landed on a small island.

The three of them went up to have a look. The island was deserted and messy, with no one to clean it up. The trees and weeds were dense, and there was no aesthetic feeling, but it looked full of vitality on the outside.

Chu Li glanced at it, shook his head and vetoed it, the island was as big as it was big, but he didn't like it.

Next, they looked at more than a dozen islands, from far to near, and the last one was only three miles away from Yuqi Island, which was located in the northeast of Yuqi Island.

Xiao Qi pointed at the small island from the bow of the boat: "I planned to keep this island at the beginning, but later my elder brother said it wasn't big enough, and it wasn't grand enough, so I chose that one, go up and see if it suits you."

Chu Li landed on the island, and the Dayuan mirror was activated.

This is a circular island, only half the size of Yuqi Island. The island is densely green and lush, far better than the rest of the island.

Auras from all directions poured in, and he felt the purity of the auras. The auras of a few giant trees were exceptionally pure. Obviously, they had a long history and were not ordinary.

The island is more vibrant than other places, and the ground is also full of aura.

Chu Li nodded in satisfaction: "Just here!"

"Here..." Xiao Qi looked at him: "Isn't it too small?"

This island is the two major islands of East Garden, and because it is too close to Yuqi Island, it will inevitably be uncomfortable, so no one has been chosen.

Chu Li said: "It's useless if it's too big."

"Bigger ones are more spacious." Xiao Qi said.

Chu Li shook his head and said, "How much space can I occupy by myself!"

Xiao Qi said: "Now you live here. In the future, your women, children, and even grandsons, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren will all live here. When the time comes, there will not be enough, and you will regret it."

"That's right." Suru pursed her lips and smiled, "This island belongs to you for generations."

Chu Li smiled: "Time has changed and the world has changed, let's talk about it when the time comes, I will choose this place!"

"Xiao Ru, you can arrange the rest." Xiao Qi turned her head and said, "Don't let Chu Li worry about this."

"Yes, I will find someone to clean it up, and then I will find someone to build it." Suru said: "It is estimated that it will be able to live in half a year."

Chu Li said: "The manager still has to go to Xueyuexuan, I'll do it myself."

"I will take Xueling together and teach her, and let her take over after I leave." Suru said with a smile: "In the future, Xueling will be responsible for these trivial matters."

Chu Li nodded.

——

In the evening of the second day, the setting sun illuminated the small courtyard red.

Chu Li sat in the small pavilion practicing the White Tiger Alchemy Yang Picture, feeling very satisfied.

When the lanterns came on, he ordered Xue Ling to go to the Star Observation Tower and ask if the envoy from Prince An's Mansion had arrived. He had a vague premonition.

After Xueling left the small courtyard, Chu Li got up and left the small pavilion, stood in front of the Tianling Tree, and looked up at the faintly dark sky.

Xueling quickly returned, opened the door and came in with a serious expression: "My lord, the envoy from Prince An's Mansion is missing!"

Chu Li frowned.

Xue Ling said: "The guards we sent to lead the way also disappeared."

"Where did you go missing?"

"Outside Bird City."

Chu Li thought about it, and Bird City was only fifty miles away.

"Miss has already gone to Iron Eagle Island, Master, do you want to go and have a look?" Xue Ling asked.

Chu Li shook his head.

"Young master is not going?"

"It's useless to go now." Chu Li said: "The eldest son is more experienced in handling these matters, wait for the news!"

Xue Ling snorted, "My lord, you can really hold your breath!"

——

Xiao Tieying sat steadily in the hall, holding a volume of books, chatting with Xiao Qi.

His current form is completely different from the previous one, as if he was a different person, calm and composed, chatting and laughing happily, without any worry.

When it comes to Xiao Shi, he is impetuous and confused.

The disappearance of an envoy from Prince An's Mansion was a major event, but he was able to hold on to it with ease.

"Chu Li chose the island closest to Yuqi Island?" Xiao Tieying said with a smile: "He is not greedy!"

Xiao Qi put down the teacup and said calmly: "I don't think he is very relieved."

Xiao Tieying laughed and said: "It seems that he is not very utilitarian."

"After all, I was influenced by Buddhism since childhood." Xiao Qi said.

"Let Xiaoru not worry about the cost, and do what is best." Xiao Tieying said, "We owe Chu Li too much, and we have to make up for it."

Xiao Qi nodded lightly.

Xiao Tieying put down the scroll, and took a sip of tea: "Little sister, this time it is probably the Duke of Ren's government who caused the trouble."

"It may also be Duke Huai's mansion." Xiao Qi said, "I have been guarding outside the city for a few days, but I found nothing. I must have become angry from embarrassment."

Xiao Tieying said: "Do they dare to kill?"

Xiao Qi frowned and muttered: "Duke Huaiguo doesn't dare, after all, he just went to make an indictment, it's hard for Duke Renguo to say, Lu Yurong's methods are ruthless, and he can do it!"

"If they kill the envoy of Prince An's Mansion, we will ruin their wedding." Xiao Tieying said with a smile: "Let Chu leave, it will definitely turn the world upside down!"

Xiao Qi shook her head and smiled: "Brother, you can still laugh."

"What's the use of having a bitter face?" Xiao Tieying said with a smile: "Old Zhao and the others do things with confidence."

He has already dispatched Zhao Qingshan's four masters from the outer world to rescue them, and the eyes and ears of the Yiguo Mansion are all over Feiniao City, and they will definitely find the envoys of Prince An's Mansion.

Xiao Qi said: "Second sister finally agreed, it's still Chu Li's words that work."

"No matter what, she is also a lifesaver," Xiao Tieying said with a smile: "Her momentum has weakened a bit first, hey, they are back!"

A report came from outside: "My lord, Mr. Zhao is asking to see you!"

"Mr. Zhao, please come in!" Xiao Tieying raised his voice.

The four of Zhao Qingshan fluttered into the hall with gloomy faces.

Xiao Tieying got up to greet him: "Where is the person?"

"My lord, we are one step too late and have already been killed!" Zhao Qingshan sighed: "The guards of our mansion are safe and sound!"

Xiao Tieying snorted: "It's vicious enough!"

He turned his head and said to Xiao Qi: "It seems to be the mansion of Duke Ren Guo!"
