Seeing Pat's confusion and despair, the lord of Eryago City suddenly said something with emotion.

"Although I have great power to you, to some people, I am just a little person with a little ability."

"What's the meaning…?"

"When that person came to ask us for a commission, your parents stupidly rejected that person. But I chose to rely on that person. In order to show my loyalty, I had to kill your parents."

After saying that, the city lord of Eryago City showed a regretful expression. It was as if killing Pat's parents was a forced decision, and everything they did was an act of desperation.

However, the next second, he suddenly smiled.

"But fortunately, I made the right choice back then. You see, everything I have now was given to me by that person. Whether it is power or wealth, these things that make you surrender were given to me by that person."

After that, the city lord of Eryago City began to talk about things that had been hidden for decades.

Zuimenghua is the key to this matter.

The man mentioned by the Lord of Eryago City accidentally came to the South China Sea and found that this was an excellent place for cultivating Drunken Dream Flowers.

In order to get these city lords to cooperate, that person gave each city lord a lot of benefits. The only requirement is to plant the Drunken Dream Flower. They only need to find a suitable place in their own territory and plant it.

When Zuimenghua matures, professional herbalists will come to collect it. What they do is very simple.

And what makes these city lords even more willing is that every time that person takes away the Drunken Dream Flower, he will use Bailey to buy it, so that their work will not be in vain.

Therefore, many city lords expressed their incomprehension about Pat’s parents’ decision.

"If you see us living so well, your parents will regret it very much, right?"

The Lord of Argo City looked at Pat and laughed.

As parents, we have no vision and miss out on a great future. As a son, he couldn't recognize his real enemy and asked his enemy for help.

This family had nothing to do if everything was taken away from them. It was because they were unable to keep their home.

Bibiru V had already guessed this ending and was extremely calm throughout the whole process. He even felt that the blow to Pat was not enough, so he came over and patted him on the shoulder mockingly.

"Do you still remember the Cloud and Mist Double Grass? After this year, the Drunken Dream Flower will be officially planted there. At that time, that person will help me stabilize my position, and anyone who opposes my planting of the Drunken Dream Flower will die."

"Pat, your parents rejected that person, but he remembers your name clearly. After the Drunken Dream Flower is successfully planted, I will report your name to it, and you will die in the same place as your parents."

"You have to thank me properly."

After saying that, the other city lords present couldn't help but laugh a few times.

What is their purpose for coming to this party? Isn't it just to see how Pat, a has-been nobleman, would struggle under absolute strength?

But what disappointed them was that Pat seemed to have been stunned by the shock and could not even carry out the most vulgar abuse.

"Okay, this scene is over. Let me take you to the real banquet."

The lord of Eryago City laughed and opened the door and walked out.

"Haha, let me tell you, City Lord, how could you drink such cheap drinks? It turns out it's all for watching a show!"

"Pat just said it was a good wine, and I almost laughed. With our financial resources, we would have stopped drinking cheap stuff like this."

"Understandable. After all, when his parents were alive, this kind of wine was the limit they could taste."

The city lords laughed at Pat one by one and followed the city lord of Argo City out of this room. Some people even throw expensive wine glasses on the ground and let them break.

After everyone left the hall, Pat finally couldn't help but knelt on the ground.

"Meow." (Human, are you okay?)

Garuru walked up to Pat with elegant steps.

It heard all the conversations by the window, including the inexplicable drunken dream flower. Although he didn't understand the entanglements between humans, seeing how desperate Pat was, Garuru hesitated and came over to take a look at his emotions.

"...What am I holding on to..."

The mocking words of the city lords stimulated him and pushed him deeper into the abyss of despair.

It turned out that the person who killed his parents was the city lord of Eryago City, and Bibiru V was just one of his subordinates, just a person who followed orders.

He finally learned the truth about his parents' death, but he was not happy at all.

Being powerless, he was unable to avenge his parents. Not to mention the Lord of Eryago City, he couldn't even defeat Bibiru V. And what should he do about the person who wins over all the city lords?

At this time, Pat felt his arm being wrapped by a fluffy object, and a soft meow brought him back to his senses.

"..."

Seeing Garuru, Pat subconsciously hugged it tightly in his arms.

On the other side, Linda and Seth returned to the hut one after another.

Linda handed the purchased herbs to Cecile, and without waiting for anyone else to ask, she told everyone about Garuru.

"I met the Pat village chief, and Garuru left with him."

"You left by yourself?"

Seth asked doubtfully.

Linda nodded and told Pat's strange behavior. She guessed that Garuru followed him because he felt suspicious.

"By the way, Chief Pat asked me to go to the northern part of the forest."

"North of the forest? What's there?"

Yaying was a little confused.

But speaking of the forest, Allen, who went to the mountains to collect herbs, was almost due to come back. It's getting dark and it's dangerous to be alone in the mountains.

After hearing Yaying's words, Atlas stood up after being silent for a while.

"I'll go find the herbalist."

"No, your injuries are serious."

Cecile stopped Atlas and prevented him from messing around.

Although he was not sick, he was even sitting here in high spirits. But Cecile knew about Atlas' physical condition.

Perhaps as he said, this trauma is nothing to him. But he was also poisoned by the same poison as Qian Xi.

Now Cecile has used medicine to temporarily suppress the toxicity, but she can't tell when the toxicity will return. As a doctor, she will never allow patients to mess around.

The herbalist went to the mountain to collect herbs for Qianxi and himself, and Atlas felt that it was natural for him to go to the mountain to pick people up.

However, he had to listen to Cecile's words. Not only because she is a good and responsible doctor, but also because...if she doesn't obey, she will force him to obey.

He doesn't want to be pricked by silver needles again...

"I'll go."

Seeing Atlas' hesitant expression, Yaying stood up with a smile.

"I'll go as well."

After looking at Kaguya who fell on the ground and Atlas who didn't dare to leave the house, Qianyue knew that she had to run.

Just like Atlas said, Allen went to the mountain to collect medicine for them, and he has not come back yet. She should not just sit idly by and ignore both emotions and reasons.
