Chapter 89 - Sunflower Water BowAt this moment, in the backyard of the City Lord"s Mansion, a man and a woman were overlapping on a bed covered by a pink curtain.
Xiang Yun wrapped his arms around Lan"er as he looked at her exquisite jade-like face. At this moment, there was no sense in his eyes, only an endless sea of flames!He suddenly flipped over and started moaning. With a shout, her body was pressed down to the ground. A pair of large hands stretched out, reaching for Lan"er"s chest!
"Buzz!"All of a sudden, the spirit root within Xiang Yun"s dantian glowed with a golden light as two streams of power flowed out from the Divine Court. The two parts of his dantian slanted downwards and flowed backwards!
In an instant, a clear stream flowed through Xiang Yun"s entire body, like two ice-cold clear streams. In an instant, it dispersed the raging flames of desire that had been burning within his body!
Xiang Yun"s body shook slightly, his eyes that were originally full of fire suddenly became clear. Seeing the beauty whose eyes were tightly shut and whose body was trembling with a pitiful appearance, Xiang Yun quickly jumped off the bed!
"Madam Fu, I"m sorry, I … I didn"t do it on purpose. I … I don"t know why, I …"
At this moment, there was no need to mention how guilty Xiang Yun was. Other people would give him clothes that Lan"er had good intentions, but he was the one who did it. If he lost control, he would almost give Lan"er to him …
City Lord Lu and Fatty Niu were still out drinking. If they were to witness this scene, what kind of reaction would they have?Xiang Yun looked somewhat uneasily at Lan"er who was lying on the bed. The latter only quietly opened her watery eyes when she heard his voice.
Lan"er"s cheeks were as red as the sunset. She lowered her head in embarra.s.sment, but glanced at Xiang Yun with a peculiar gaze before speaking softly."It"s alright, Your Highness. Lan"er knows that you did it on purpose."
Hearing this, Xiang Yun immediately let out a long sigh of relief. He hurriedly picked up the clothes by the bed and put them on, not daring to stay any longer to face Lan"er.
When it was about ten in the afternoon, City Lord Lu brought the two young masters to the City Lord"s Mansion to enjoy the garden.Of course, this was all Fatty Niu"s doing. Now that he had eaten his fill, it was time for him to have some fun. He wanted to see if there were any good things in the Mayor"s mansion that he could take with him.
Along the way, Fatty Niu looked like the captain of the Town Security army as he walked at the forefront, looking left and right while Xiang Yun and the Mayor followed behind him.Xiang Yun said to City Lord Lu, "City Lord, do you know the reason why I"ve come looking for you this time?"
Hearing this, Lu Yongchang was confused and asked, "Your Highness, what"s the matter?"
Xiang Yun nodded, saying in an extremely solemn voice, "I do have a request!""Oh, Your Highness, please speak your mind. But if there is anything I can help you with, I will not refuse!"
Xiang Yun nodded, feeling very satisfied with Lu Yongchang"s att.i.tude. After pondering for a moment, he said, "City Lord Lu, what cultivation base do you have now!"
Lu Yongchang was stunned for a moment and then said honestly, "Your Highness, I am not talented. My cultivation has just reached the late stage of the Profound Cloud Realm.""Oh!"
Xiang Yun was shocked upon hearing this. Although he already knew that City Lord Lu was an expert of the Profound Cloud Realm, he had not expected that the latter had already reached the late stage of the Profound Cloud Realm.
This was beyond his expectations. He had not expected that such a weak person like Lu Yongchang could have such a profound cultivation base.
Xiang Yun immediately felt rea.s.sured, saying, "That"s great. I"m not worried about implicating City Lord Lu."
Upon hearing these words, Lu Yongchang immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. He used a peculiar gaze to look at Xiang Yun and asked.
"Your Highness, what exactly happened? Please explain."
Xiang Yun nodded, looking at Lu Yongchang as he said in a low voice, "City Lord Lu, there"s someone in Qin Feng City who wants to harm me!"
"What!"Lu Yongchang"s body shook as he stared at Xiang Yun in shock!
"Your Highness, are you joking? Someone in this Qin Feng City dared to harm you. Could it be that they ate the heart of a bear, and if Your Highness says who did it to you, I, Lu, will capture them and hand them over to Your Highness immediately?"
Xiang Yun helplessly shook his head and said, "If I knew who it was, I wouldn"t have come to ask for your help!"Last night, Xiang Yun had thought of asking Lu Yongchang to help him. Firstly, Lu Yongchang was the City Lord of Qinfeng City with a profound cultivation base, secondly, he was weak in nature and had always been obedient to him.
Xiang Yun then continued speaking to Lu Yongchang, "City Lord Lu, do you remember that day when I spread the news of my sudden death in the Phoenix Pavilion?"
Lu Yongchang hurriedly nodded. "Of course I remember. The next day, I also came to visit His Highness the crown prince. It was just that you fainted that day, so you did not know about it."
"Hmph, it seems that the shop owner that I bought medicine from before has disappeared from this world. Even their neighbors have disappeared. There must be something fishy."
Hearing this, Lu Yongchang"s face also changed, "So it was like that!"
Xiang Yun frowned, "City Lord Lu, you"re the City Lord of Qinfeng City after all. How could you not know about this?"
Hearing this, Lu Yongchang immediately looked ashamed. He said with embarra.s.sment, "It could be that the servants forgot to report this matter to me."
Xiang Yun couldn"t help but sigh in his heart as he almost forgot that this fellow had the t.i.tle of City Lord in the City Lord"s Mansion. The maids in the mansion weren"t afraid of him, so there were some matters that were too lazy to report to him.
"City Lord Lu, I"ve come here today because I hope that you can secretly investigate the entire Qin Feng City and find those fellows for me!"
Xiang Yun then recounted the matter of him and Fatty Niu having been set up in the gambling house, letting one investigate the matter.
"Alright, as per His Highness" order, this official will do his best to protect His Highness!" Lu Yongchang agreed immediately.
"City Lord Lu, don"t worry. As long as you take care of this matter, you"ll be able to take care of it. Then, you won"t have to guard this northwest border anymore. Why bother being the mayor of this city anymore!"
"Is that true?" Hearing this, City Lord Lu"s eyes lit up!
"It"s even more real than real gold!"
"Alright, I"ll take care of it!" At this moment, Lu Yongchang"s tone was filled with determination. Xiang Yun could not help but nod in satisfaction inwardly, thinking that as long as this City Lord with his high cultivation was in his hands, all his problems would be resolved.Afterwards, the three of them continued their tour until they arrived at the east garden of the City Lord"s Mansion. After searching for a while, there was actually nothing good that they could find. He felt depressed and could not help but turn to look at Lu Yongchang.
"City Lord Lu, the taste of your residence is getting worse and worse. Why is it that you don"t even have any antiques, paintings, or Feng Shui array genie items? How boring!"
City Lord Lu forced a smile, thinking: "You"ve already cleaned up all the good stuff, what other treasures do you have? Moreover, you"ve come, and I still dare to lay out the good stuff?" I may be soft, but I"m not stupid. "
As they talked, they suddenly walked to the side of a small bamboo house. Upon seeing this small bamboo house, Lu Yongchang"s expression immediately changed. He immediately pulled Fatty Niu and Xiang Yun and said.
"Your Highness, Young Master Niu, there"s nothing to look at here anymore. Let"s go to another place to take a look. The plum blossoms in the western courtyard of my manor are blooming. They look really good. Let"s go take a look."Lu Yongchang wanted nothing more than to take the two of them out of the bamboo house right away. However, Fatty Ox was usually a simple and honest guy. When he came to this kind of time for treasures, he was a thief and a shrewd thief.
As soon as he saw Lu Yongchang"s twinkling eyes, he knew that something was wrong. His gaze swept across the area and fixed on the top of the bamboo tower!"Hehe, City Lord Lu, this bamboo house of yours is so well repaired!" Fatty Niu suddenly stopped and said while looking at Lu Yongchang with a smile.
Hearing this, Lu Yongchang"s smile froze.
Fatty Niu gave a weird laugh and said, "City Lord, why don"t you bring us to such a unique bamboo house?"
Hearing this, Lu Yongchang forced out a smile and said, "It"s just a broken bamboo house with piles of junk. It"s not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."
"Oh, since it"s not worth mentioning, then I must take a look. I like to see worthless things. City Lord Lu, lead the way!"
"This …"
In the end, Lu Yongchang could only lead the way with a pained expression on his face. Xiang Yun and Fatty Niu, who had a naughty smile on their faces, followed them up the bamboo tower.Lu Yongchang brought the two of them upstairs. After hesitating at the door for a long time, under the urging of Fatty Niu, Lu Yongchang unwillingly unlocked the door of the bamboo house and opened it.
As soon as the door was opened, a s.p.a.cious and quiet room was revealed inside. It was not what Lu Yongchang had said at all. The room was completely empty except for a square, exquisite wooden shelf placed in the middle of the room.Above the wooden frame, there was actually a long bow that was sparkling and translucent like a blue water color. The bow was slightly longer than an ordinary bow, and the bowstring was also a very special light purple color.
Although he did not know what material it was made of, just by looking at the faint flowing brilliance on the surface of the longbow, he knew that it was definitely not an ordinary bow!
"This!"
Upon seeing this bow and arrow, Fatty Niu"s eyes widened!
"d.a.m.n you, Lu Yongchang. To think that your home still has such a treasure. Why didn"t you tell me earlier!"
Before Lu Yongchang"s pained face even said a word, the fat cow had already rushed up to the bow and started to examine it.
The meatball-like hands kept stroking the body as if they were stroking a beautiful woman who was as beautiful as a flower!
Even Xiang Yun couldn"t help but take a close look when he saw this bow br.i.m.m.i.n.g with light. He could faintly sense that this bow contained a gentle yet powerful energy. It seemed like it was definitely a cloud weapon as well!
Seeing that both Xiang Yun and Fatty Niu"s gazes were glued onto the treasured bow, Lu Yongchang was on the verge of tears. Yet, he could not do anything, could not say anything.
However, it was the fat cow who pulled Lu Yongchang over and asked with a smile, "Mayor Lu, what is the origin of this bow? You are the host, so why don"t you introduce it to us?"
Lu Yongchang thought to himself that even though he was now his master, it didn"t mean that he would still be his master. However, he couldn"t go against this Young Master Niu"s intentions. He could only answer honestly."This bow is a Grade Two Cloud Weapon called the "Sunflower Water Bow". It is made entirely out of Sunflower Water Crystals and is extremely tough."
"The bowstring is made from a nether water snake tendon and is compatible with the Sunflower Water Crystal. When the user infuses Yun Li into the bowstring, it can nurture a portion of the Sunflower Water Power to erupt with great power on the bow and arrow!"
"Oh!"
Hearing City Lord Lu"s introduction, Xiang Yun"s and Fatty Niu"s eyes lit up. Just from this introduction alone, they could tell that this cloud bow was very powerful!
Fatty Niu could not wait any longer. He took the bow off the wooden frame with both hands. He first weighed it in his hand for a bit before a look of disdain appeared on his face.
"You sound so awesome. Why is it only this heavy? City Lord Lu, you aren"t lying to us, right?"
At this moment, the Sunflower Water Bow in Fatty Niu"s hand was no more than four to five catties. It was much lighter than a normal bow.Hearing this, City Lord Lu smiled bitterly, "Young Master Niu, these Sunflower Water Crystals are made of light and tough materials. If you think this bow is weak, then you"re wrong. Take a look at it if you don"t believe me."
Upon hearing this, Fatty Niu had a look of doubt on his face. He immediately raised the bow in his hand and placed one hand on the bowstring made from the Deep Water Serpent"s tendons. He then casually pulled it!
"En!"
Fatty Niu had originally thought that he could pull out a full bowstring, but he did not expect that with this pull, the entire bowstring would slightly curve at an almost indiscernible angle.
In order to not lose face in front of the boss, he had used his strength once again. This time, he had used the power of the Three Cloud Martial Disciple in his Dantian, and a weak aura erupted from both of his arms!"Open for me!"
With an explosive bellow, Fatty Niu pulled the bowstring again!
"Buzz!"
Along with a light buzzing sound, the treasured bow began to shine with a faint light. The entire bowstring was pulled by Fatty Niu, forming an umbrella shape.
Fatty Niu wanted to pull apart the curtain even further, but no matter how much he tried, his face turned red and his eyes widened. The fat all over his body was trembling. The canopy of the umbrella was still the canopy of the umbrella!Finally, the fatty seemed to be unable to hold on any longer. He loosened his arm, and the bowstring released a soft humming sound, echoing within the bamboo tower!
"Hu!"
"What the f * ck is this? Why is it so hard to pull? How boring! How boring!" The fat Ox panted heavily as he spoke in a huff.Xiang Yun, who was at the side, knew that this was due to Fatty Niu"s lack of strength. He turned to Lu Yongchang and said, "City Lord Lu, why don"t you demonstrate to us the might of this bow?"
