City Raptors Crossing the River

Chapter 135 Alertness
Inside the red building.

The Second Elder and Li Rong had just finished enjoying a sumptuous meal and sat on the sofa for a nap.

It has to be said that Hongchen has its own temptations, and now the Red Mansion has completely become the private official residence of Li Rong and the second elder.

Li Rong took a deep breath on his cigar and asked:

"Second Elder, is there any news from Wang Meng's house?"

"Those guys have been searching for a few days, but there is no news at all. It seems that the only thing we can do is catch Wang Meng and interrogate him personally." The second elder said.

At this time, someone suddenly knocked on the door outside.

Li Rong knew that no one other than Sun Ruxue would come to the Red Mansion today.

However, it is daytime now, and Sun Ruxue shouldn't be here in the first place.

Li Rong seemed to have a premonition that something was going to happen, so he hurriedly stepped forward to open the door, and the person standing at the door was indeed Sun Ruxue.

"Come here now, what's the matter?" Li Rong asked.

Sun Ruxue nodded and said:
"There seems to be something wrong with Li Rui."

"Oh?" Li Rong asked curiously.

Sun Ruxue smiled tenderly, walked into the room, and seeing the Second Elder was there, the smile on her face froze instantly.

"You seem to be very afraid of me?" the second elder said.

Sun Ruxue's body trembled a little, and she didn't know why, this was the first thing that made her feel scared.

Even Li Rong would not let Sun Ruxue feel this way.

"Second Elder's cultivation base is too high, so he will naturally exude a kingly aura, and it's normal for a little girl to be afraid." Sun Ruxue said.

The second elder laughed a few times and said:
"I met a talking woman like you before, and I would kill her without hesitation."

Sun Ruxue was so frightened that she quickly knelt on the ground and said:
"What the little girl said is true, please spare the life of the second elder."

With a wave of the second elder's hand, Sun Ruxue felt her whole body being supported by a strong force, and stood up involuntarily.

"You are not an ordinary woman, so you can live." The second elder said lightly.

Sun Ruxue broke out in a cold sweat.

Li Rong smiled and said:

"As long as you serve the Second Elder well, not only will you not die, but you will also get many unexpected benefits."

Sun Ruxue nodded like pounding garlic.

"Okay, let's talk about your business." The second elder waved his hand and asked.

Only at this moment did Sun Ruxue feel the pressure loosen all over her body, and said:
"I think there's something wrong with Li Rui. He seems to be getting better all of a sudden."

Li Rong frowned and asked:

"Speak clearly, what happened to Li Rui's body?"

Sun Ruxue said:

"A few days ago, according to Young Master Rong's instructions, I injected the Qi of Yuehua into his body, and I also felt that his body was getting worse day by day, but, two days ago, he seemed to be recovering. I came here, I was sleepy at the time and didn’t think about it, but the more I thought about it, the more strange it became.”

"Oh? Then why didn't you try Li Rui again today and do a thorough investigation?" Li Rong asked.

"Li Rui is gone, and he asked people to sell the Li family's property again." Sun Ruxue said.

Li Rong finally felt that something was wrong.

He turned and asked:
"Second Elder, is there any way to cure the cold poison of Yuehua Qi?"

The second elder shook his head and said:
"It depends on the degree of poisoning, but generally speaking, when the poisoning is not deep, a strong person in the sky-slashing state can force out the energy of the moonlight by depleting their own true energy.

However, this is only at the beginning of the poisoning. If the poisoning is too deep, no one will be able to save him. "

Li Rong said:
"She has given Li Rui the energy of the Moonlight many times, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to force it out with real energy."

Sun Ruxue also quickly said:

"Young Master Rong is right. I can feel the cold air eroding Li Rui's organs. I wonder if this is serious?"

The second elder said:

"If you're right, it proves that Li Rui has been poisoned quite deeply, and I can't think of any other way in the world to cure that degree of cold poison."

"I think as long as we find that kid Li Rui, we will know everything when we ask. It's just that the kid suddenly disappeared, what should we do?" Li Rong asked.

With the Second Elder around, he must not be too dazzling.

Sure enough, the second elder smiled and said:
"Li Rui, thanks to the fact that you are still a core disciple of my Li family, you don't know the magical effect of jade carving seeds."

"Oh, besides transforming a woman's body, what else can jade carving seeds be used for?" Li Rong asked.

That way, he really looks like a student who is humbly asking for advice.

The second elder said:

"The jade carving seeds have taken root in her body, and she has injected the energy of moonlight into Li Rui's body, which is equivalent to passing the power of the jade carving seeds into Li Rui's body. However, the power of the jade carving seeds can only be found in a woman's body." Survival is like a person in a strange environment, and he feels unable to adapt to this strange environment, what do you think this person wants to do most?"

Sun Ruxue said:

"I definitely want to go home the most."

The second elder smiled and said:
"You are right. The mysterious power of the jade carving seeds wants to go home and return to its original mother body. It is precisely because of this that the energy of Yuehua can take advantage of the void and finally play the role of the combined power of the two. Come on, let that person break into pieces.

It's like a seed breaking out of the ground, and every time a person is broken, the power of the jade carving seed that returns to the mother's body will become stronger. "

Sun Ruxue was taken aback. Li Rong had never said these words to her before. She really wanted to ask the Second Elder if every time a person was shattered, her cultivation would become stronger.

She dared not ask because she was afraid.

She was afraid that the second elder and Li Rong would notice her ambition.

Sun Ruxue understood a truth very early on, when a person's ambition and strength do not match, it is a very dangerous thing.

Unfortunately, Sun Ruxue still underestimated the second elder.

When he was talking about the power of jade carving seeds, he kept staring at Sun Ruxue, like a falcon standing on a cliff staring at its prey.

No matter how well the prey is concealed, it will never escape the falcon's sharp eyes.

The second elder stretched out his hand, and Sun Ruxue immediately felt being pulled by a powerful force.

Let her body suspend, and quickly fly towards the second elder.

The second elder grabbed Sun Ruxue's neck and said coldly:
"Did you just think that you can use the jade carving seeds to gain great power?"

Sun Ruxue only felt that the second elder's hands were like a pair of iron tongs, which made her unable to breathe, and even if she wanted to shout, she couldn't make a sound.

The second elder's long hair suddenly became windless, and his voice also changed, becoming extremely gloomy:

"Do you know that I once killed a woman with a natural charm with my own hands?"

Sun Ruxue's face was ashen, and her heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
