The smile on Luo Liu’s face disappeared: “Nan Yu City Lord, your words are too irresponsible. Do you have proof that we killed the Young City Lord?”
Nan Yu Miao sneered: “If it weren’t you, then where are the two people who came here with you? Could it be a guilty conscience?”
“You mean You Yue and her friend? They’ve already left. We are not close to them, we don’t even know what they do. Also, you don’t have any evidence that they did it either do you?”
“If it wasn’t them, why did they leave?” Nan Yu Miao had already made up his mind that it was Sima You Yue who had captured Nan Yuzhi. He turned and walked towards his chair, “We will find out whether it is them once we capture them! Men, go and arrest those two people for me!”
Luo Yi finally understood what was going on. He wanted to go and talk to Nan Yu Miao, but he was stopped by Luo Liu
“Sixth Uncle, tell Nan Yu City Lord that he is mistaken, You Yue and the others didn’t capture Nan Yuzhi. Their soldiers have even been to the place we stayed in to search. If she really did it, why didn’t they find anyone?” Lui Yu was a little anxious and begged Luo Liu.
Nan Yu Miao sat on his chair and looked at the anxious Luo Yi and said vaguely: “You have a good relationship with those two people?”
“She is my friend.” Luo Yi admitted openly.
“So, you really are in cahoots!” Nan Yu Miao said to Luo Liu again: “What else do you have to say?”
“Then why don’t you ask my Young Master when we met them?”
“When?”
“We met when we were queuing up to enter the City. We became friends after we entered the City.” Luo Yi replied.
“Really?”
“Of course it’s true! Although we have not known each other for long, we are still friends.” Luo Yi said seriously.
He thought so in his heart.
Nan Yu Miao stared at Luo Yi for a while. Luo Yi held his head high, he had nothing to hide because of this relationship.
Nan Yu Miao pursed his lips: “I think you have made friends with some bad people.”
He may not have believed Luo Liu’s words, however, everyone in the entire Azure Dragon Soul Region knew that the Young Master of the spiritualists was a fool and wouldn’t lie. So basically, he could rule them out.
However, he was unable to rule out whether Sima You Yue had a hand in this matter.
After he had checked everyone who had attended the party that day, Nan Yu Miao sent them all back. Even Luo Yi and the others were also sent back.
If Sima You Yue came back to look for them, at least they would be able to catch them.
After those people left, a commander soldier ran in from outside and knelt on the ground and saluted, and said: “City Lord, we have searched the entire city and not found any sign of those two people.”
“No sign of them? Can they fly? Keep searching!”
“Yes!”
The spirit barrier set up in Happiness City prevented people from leaving at will, therefore, it was impossible for the two of them to leave without passing through the city gate.
In that case, they must still be in the city. As long as they are in the city, they will find them!
Nan Yu Miao knew the strength of his city very well, therefore, he never thought that it would be so difficult to catch two people. However, when news after news arrived, his face became darker and darker.
“Useless trash! There are so many of you, and yet you can’t even find two people? What am I raising a bunch of trash for? Are your meals free?”
Below, a group of people knelt down on the ground afraid to speak. Some of them were unable to breathe because of the air pressure. Everyone’s heads hung low for fear that they would catch his attention and their heads would roll.
“City Lord, we have searched the city more than a dozen times and we really haven’t found any trace of them. It’s as if they have disappeared into thin air.”
“Disappeared into thin air? Did the spirit barrier react? Did anyone go out of the city gate? No! Now you tell me that they have disappeared? How is that possible?”
“We didn’t say that she has definitely disappeared, we just said, like…”
“I will give you another day. If you still fail to find them, then bring your heads to me yourself!”
“Yes!”
Those people who were kneeling on the ground got up and left, only the stewards remained behind.
“Is there no news from Luo Yi’s side either?” Nan Yu Miao picked up his teacup to drink some tea to moisten his throat. However, when he thought of his missing son, he put the teacup down again.
“Our men are standing guard day and night and we have sent several people to follow them if they go out. But there has been no news at all. They don’t seem to have any intention of going back to look for Luo Yi and the others.”
“As long as these two people are still in the city, they will leave some traces.” Nan Yu Miao said, “Send out all the men in the City Lord Manor. If there are not enough men, then call the mining people back.”
“Yes.”
The City Lord Manor had never been as empty as it was now. In the past, it was always filled with people, soldiers and guards walking around in groups. Patrols that rotated every three hours had made it impossible to infiltrate this place.
However, other than the basic guards, all other City Lord Manor guards had been dispatched elsewhere.
Therefore, it was not surprising that Sima You Yue and Wu Lingyu were not discovered when they came in.
“It seems like almost everyone here has left. This method really worked.” She smiled mischievously and Wu Lingyu couldn’t help but laugh along with her.
“He’s waiting for us inside, let’s not keep him waiting!”
The two of them came to the study where Nan Yu Miao was. Wu Lingyu cast a spirit barrier and covered the entire building before he entered.
Nan Yu Miao’s eyes were closed and he was resting. He had been dealing with Nan Yuzhi’s affairs upon his return the past few days and hadn’t had a good rest. Now that there was no one in the Manor, he decided to rest for a while.
When he heard the sound of the door opening, he thought it was the Steward who had come inside. He kept his eyes closed and asked: “Is there any news?”
“What news is more valuable than us coming directly?”
Nan Yu Miao’s eyes opened when he heard the unfamiliar voice. He looked at Sima You Yue: “You are Sima You Yue?”
“Haven’t you sent your men to look for me? Why don’t you look happy now that I’m here?” Sima You Yue pulled two stools over and sat opposite Nan Yu Miao with Wu Lingyu.
Their expressions were relaxed and there was no trace of fear in their eyes when they looked at Nan Yu Miao like everyone else.
“Where is Zhi’er?” Nan Yu Miao cared deeply about Zhi’er.
“He is in a very safe place. No one can hurt him for now, so don’t worry!” Sima You Yue said.
“What do you want?”
He was very straightforward.
“What did you do for Mu Luo Feng? What are you responsible for? How often do you meet him?”
Nan Yu Miao’s eyes narrowed and he said firmly: “You are here for Commander Mu!”
