Ning Luo had brought Luo Dao with her this time, and the self-confidence in her heart suddenly surged. She had originally been worried that the black-faced protector and Xuanyuan Qing would work together to deal with her.
Unfortunately, in the period after he left, he did not know what had happened in Dragon and Phoenix City. He was originally happy to be back, but then he suddenly smelled the bad news and was stunned on the spot.
Luo Dao didn't know that there were other people on his side. When he saw Ning Luo's expression, he understood the seriousness of the situation and asked the old shopkeeper.
” ”What kind of person is Fan Jinxuan?”
From the name, he could tell it was a woman, but he didn't know the relationship between Ning Luo and her.
When the old shopkeeper saw Ning Luo, he had already kneeled on the ground, sniffling and crying. In his opinion, Fan Jin Xuan only ended up like this because of him.
Ning Luo had forgotten to tell Luo Dao on the way here, so he asked about it now.
” ”He is the eldest senior sister of the Ten Thousand Devil Sect's Blood Heaven School. This time, because Xuanyuan Qing provoked the Ten Thousand Devil Sect, he followed my master's orders and went down the mountain to investigate this matter.”
With this explanation, Luo Dao finally understood what was going on. He knew about the provocation towards the Myriad Demons Sect in the Dragon Phoenix Villa. Initially, when Ning Luo went down the mountain alone, he had some doubts that Ning Luo couldn't be the only one to complete the Sect's mission.
” ”Old head storekeeper, it's best if you start something up. This matter is not your fault. If I were here, I would have done the same thing.”
Ning Luo helped the old shopkeeper up from the ground, but he was surprised to find that there was only one person left in the inn: a whole room full of broken tables and chairs.
” ”Old shopkeeper, where are your waiters? Why don't you clean this place up?”
The old shopkeeper first looked around before sighing heavily and saying helplessly.
” Husband and wife were originally in the same boat, and furthermore, it was only in such a delicate relationship. As for these things, let them be. ”
The old shopkeeper had been discouraged after this incident, so he had thought of leaving early on. Since Ning Luo hadn't returned, he had no way of resolving Fan Jinxuan's problem. Thus, he had waited for Ning Luo to return before making his decision.
Ning Luo and Luo Dao looked at each other, feeling pity for the old shopkeeper. Therefore, Ning Luo couldn't help asking.
” ”Since you're so old, you should be able to leave if you want to. But I think you should stay behind. You don't need to bother with matters regarding the Dragon and Phoenix Villa.”
He had started to plan to fight her head on. If he didn't snatch back Fan Jin Xuan, this wouldn't just be a matter of him alone, but also the reputation of the entire Ten Thousand Demons Sect.
Hearing this, the old shopkeeper's heart skipped a beat. Wasn't this how Fan Jinxuan protected him before? However, this was indeed the end result.
However, he wasn't a heartless person. Since Fan Jinxuan was implicated by him, how could the old shopkeeper be willing to leave if he didn't see her return? He said.
” Alright, this old one will stay and boil some water for the two of you. ”
After saying this, the old shopkeeper walked over to the firehouse. Presumably, he was either preparing a meal or boiling water for the two of them.
After seeing the old shopkeeper leave, Ning Luo hurriedly called for Luo Dao. The two of them went to the room on the second floor and started planning how to save Fan Jin Xuan.
Luo Dao closed the door as soon as he entered the room. Then he sat down nervously and asked Ning Luo.
