Have I become the nightmare of the goddesses?

“It has been verified.”
Xu Yuanwang looked at the inspector next to him again and said lightly.
“You don’t need to work hard here. I heard someone report that there are thieves in the north of the city. Go and investigate.”
Ye Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but then felt frightened. Xu Yuanwang showed up in the middle of the night to rescue him. What on earth was he escorting?
“This…” The leading inspector named Li hesitated, “We can act separately so that neither of us will be delayed.”
“it is good.”
Xu Yuanwang’s face darkened.
“You guys don’t listen to me?”
He said with a grim look.
“Are you going to disobey me?”
Envoy Xu was holding his breath. He was a patrol angel, inspecting the people on behalf of the emperor and the immortals, but he suffered humiliation in Li’an Prefecture.
At this moment, he thought of Master Wei again. What happened on the Yincui Painting Boat still bothered him to this day. He had never suffered such an injustice in his life!
What a shame it is to send your beloved woman to the bed of your enemy?
“Don’t dare…”
Inspector Li said through gritted teeth.
“Why don’t you take people to the North City to search for the bandits?”
Xu Yuanwang snorted coldly and said, since Wei Er was not in Li’an Prefecture, he had the final say in the Astronomical Observatory.
“Your Excellency Xu has great authority.”
The gratification on his face froze as he heard a chuckle behind him.
‘impossible! ’
Xu Yuanwang’s face showed astonishment, and his eyes revealed fear as if his secret had been exposed. Finally, he let out a sigh of relief.
“Why is Junior Brother Wei here?”
A surprised smile appeared on his face and he walked towards the person who was coming.
“Ah……”
A handsome man in a white robe walked into the moonlight. He had clear eyes and a slender figure. He was holding a gray cat in front of him, like an immortal from an ancient world.
“Brother Xu, how are you? I still want to thank you for your kindness that day.”
Wei Buqi smiled, and he caressed the gray fairy in his arms leisurely, harmless to humans and animals. The smile on Xu Yuanwang’s mouth gradually faded, and he guessed what Wei Ze was going to say.
“It’s not worth mentioning——”
Envoy Xu forced a smile, and the Second Young Master Wei shook his head as if reminiscing, and spoke ruthlessly.
“Miss Ling’er, very moist.”
Chapter 60 Battlefield on Both Sides
The sky has fallen asleep, but a corner of the night is as bright as day. Below the city, a group of soldiers and horses are silent and motionless, their eyes are focused on one person.
He came alone, holding a gray cat in his arms, and strolled leisurely.
The evening breeze suddenly rose, and everyone’s expressions changed.
“If I don’t take revenge, I’m not a real man!”
Xu Yuanwang took a deep breath in anger, but a kind smile still appeared in his eyes.
“I am relieved to see that Junior Brother Wei is having a great time. If I have failed to entertain you well, please forgive me.”
He had learned from Xie Lang that Ling’er was a demon from the Demon Cult, but he didn’t care. Instead, he felt more pity for her. You are a beautiful woman, but why did you fall into the devil’s way? Now you are insulted by the evil man! What a pitiful woman! He would never forgive Wei Ze.
“Senior Brother Xu, you are too kind.”
Wei Buqi showed a gentle smile. He turned his head and looked behind him. A group of inspectors bowed and saluted under his gaze. Ye Li greeted them in a timid manner, “Mr. Wei”.
“I heard in the middle of the night that there were demon cultivators causing chaos in the city, and I followed them all the way to the South City Gate. What are you doing? Have you seen any evildoers?”
Wei Er looked around and asked Envoy Xu.
“Demon disciple?”
Xu Yuanwang looked surprised.
“I, the patrol angel, have failed in my duty. I didn’t know that there was a demon causing trouble tonight. This matter must be investigated thoroughly!”
Wei Buqi looked at the Ye family’s caravan again and asked.
“What’s going on here?”
Ye Li hurried forward to greet him.
“Our Chamber of Commerce’s fleet is out shopping…”
He explained the situation in a roundabout way.
“I understand. In that case, please check these goods according to the rules. If everything is OK, let him enter the city.”
As soon as the Second Young Master Wei said this, everyone present could feel the atmosphere become more solemn.
“This……”
Ye Li looked towards the backer with a tingling scalp.
“Good junior brother.”
Xu Yuanwang hesitated to speak, his eyes full of embarrassment. After a moment he spoke in a low voice.
“I’m telling you the truth, please don’t laugh at me. I want to make a furnace of tonic pills, so I asked Lord Taining to find a forbidden medicine for me. This is not a big deal. Can you please be kind and give me some face?”
A trace of fear flashed in his eyes. If they had not made preparations, they would have fallen into the hands of the Wei thieves tonight!
“really?”
Wei Buqi frowned.
“It’s true.”
Xu Yuanwang said without hesitation that the truck and cargo in front of them were just a trap they had set up. Wouldn’t this lure Wei Er out?
He admired the bewilderment on his enemy’s face and felt it was as refreshing as drinking from an icy spring in the hot summer. This scoundrel probably didn’t expect that his planning for so many days would yield nothing.
Today’s plan to transport that thing into the city failed, but Ambassador Xu felt a sense of triumph. He won this battle…
“boom!”
The people at the south gate of Li’an Prefecture suddenly looked outside the city. At this moment, they felt two surging auras rising in the distance. The vast pressure hit the city wall like a raging wave, making it hard for people to breathe.
“Master Xie was stopped by someone?”
Xu Yuanwang’s face suddenly changed! He stared at Wei Buqi fiercely, and saw that the confusion on his face turned into a smile that seemed to be mocking, which was equivalent to ridicule in his eyes.
His hands and feet suddenly felt cold as if he had fallen into an icy cave, and he finally realized that he was being played around by him and that he knew everything.
The world turned upside down, and his heart fell from the clouds to the bottom of the valley.
“You arrest them along with their goods.”
Wei Buqi suddenly said to the inspectors.
“Yes!”
Ignoring Ye Li’s trembling face, he turned around, met Xu Yuanwang’s gaze, and spoke solemnly.
“I also want to help Senior Brother Xu, but the situation is different from before. There are demon cultivators attacking outside Li’an Mansion. Anyone entering the city now may be a spy of the Demon Cult. We cannot let them go until we find out the truth.”
Wei Er spoke frankly, and Envoy Xu almost gritted his teeth. Who among them is the one in charge of the Astronomical Observatory?
“Brother Wei, what you said makes sense.”
He swallowed his tears.
“let’s go.”
Wei Buqi carried the Gray Fairy in his arms and walked towards the carriage of the Patrolling Angel.
“You and I will go out of town to find out.”
Xu Yuanwang was stunned. He watched Wei Ze climb onto the carriage as if it was natural. He was unable to react for a moment. When he came to his senses, his cheeks instantly turned the color of liver! This man wanted him to be the driver?
“Envoy Xu, why don’t you leave with me?”
The second young master Wei’s calm voice came from the car.
“no……”
Envoy Xu tried to decline with a forced smile.
“How can we get involved in the fight between great practitioners?”
“Brother Xu, don’t worry.” Wei Buqi spoke to him across the carriage. He said slowly, “The man who fought with the demon disciple is a senior of our sect. I have also sent a message to ask Chongming Guards to come to support us.”
Xu Yuanwang was speechless. He heard the threat from the villain. If he didn’t obey, he would be the first one to be dealt with by the Chongming Guards when they arrived, right?
“I feel relieved when you say that. It’s our duty. Let’s go for a walk together, brothers.”
Envoy Xu walked towards the carriage with heavy steps. Every step seemed to be stepping on his face. As a patrol angel, he had to drive for his subordinates. What a great shame and humiliation was this?
“Please drive steadily and don’t scare my cat.”
Wei Er said lightly.
“You’re joking.”
He endured humiliation and bore heavy burdens.
“drive!”
Xu Yuanwang went into the front room of the carriage.
He raised the whip, and the two red flame horses in front of the carriage ran away with sparks, and the carriage rushed out of the city gate.
At this time, he began to think about what Wei Ze had just said. The one who was fighting with his uncle Xie was not a member of the Wei Party, but a senior from the Immortal Sect. Could it be…
