Chapter 28 Human-male hybrid As soon as Lu Li got off the beast cart, the servant of the City Lord's Mansion came forward and said flatteringly: "Mr. Lu, the city lord has been waiting for you! The banquet is ready, and we are just waiting for you, the distinguished guest, to take a seat."Lu Li nodded, grabbed the Mountain and River Fan and stepped inside. As soon as he walked around the gable, a refreshing fragrance hit him in the face. Lu Li took a quick look and found that there was a furnace of extremely expensive ambergris burning in every corner of the City Lord's Mansion. "This top-grade ambergris can be sold for five hundred black crystals per ounce outside. This incense is extremely precious. Smelling it for a long time can also have a miraculous effect on cultivators. It can make the ears and eyes clear and even enhance the mystical senses." Jin Fuer appeared from somewhere and explained the effects of ambergris. Seeing that Lu Li didn't answer, she continued: “But even the City Lord’s Mansion cannot afford this ambergris. It was only because Mr. Lu came that the City Lord took out the ambergris that he had treasured for a long time.” "It is really inappropriate for me to show off my limited knowledge in front of you, sir. Please forgive me." Lu Li glanced at the girl, smiled and spoke. Jin Fuer's face changed slightly. It was not good for Lu Li not to have this attitude. Did her words make him angry? Lu Li walked into the banquet, opened the Mountain and River Fan with a snap, bowed slightly to the Lord of Tianluo City sitting on the main seat, and then took the guest seat. Zhan Gu stood behind Lu Li, looking around with sharp eyes. The Lord of Tianluo City said with a smile: "It is a great honor for our City Lord's Mansion to have such a distinguished guest like you, Mr. Lu, here today."
Lu Li raised his eyebrows slightly and sighed: "In fact, I am not a person who likes red tape. If the city lord has anything to say, you can just say it directly without being polite." Lu Li secretly used the powerful sound in "Wan Yin Gong" to make his voice sound like the sound of a Huang Zhong Da Lu, implying awe-inspiring power, which made the Blade who heard the words feel awe. Jin Fuer walked over quickly and said: "It turns out that I was not thoughtful enough and made too many arrangements, which made Mr. Lu unhappy. In fact, I don't like beating around the bush!" "Mr. Lu is straightforward, so I should be straightforward too!" Jin Fuer clapped her hands, and immediately a servant brought a brocade box and placed it in front of Lu Li. Lu Li "heard" that there was no strange sound coming from the brocade box. He reached out to open it, but found a thick stack of land deeds. "Wanyou Store, Qingfeng Restaurant...Aren't these the shops around my teahouse?" Lu Li's heart moved, and he immediately guessed what Jin Fuer meant. Jin Fuer waved her hand and said: "Mr. Lu, your teahouse is now crowded every day. People who want to listen to your stories are lining up from the beginning to the end of the street, so I asked the city lord to bring the deeds of the surrounding shops here." "We are planning to renovate your teahouse. Mr. Lu likes storytelling, so naturally, Ye hopes that more people will listen to your storytelling." Lu Li laughed, and the Mountain and River Fan swept across the brocade box, which was then put away. Jin Fuer was delighted. Lu Li accepted the land deed, which meant that things would be much easier. Lu Li said: "You are really powerful, you have already taken care of hundreds of stores in less than a day, but I am so disrespectful to refuse. Can you tell me what you want me to do?" Jin Fuer smiled and said: "Sir, you are joking. How can I ask you to help me with such a small thing?" She clapped her hands again, this time with two large boxes.
"It contains two million black crystals and thirty kilograms of high-quality ambergris. It's a gift to you, sir." "I saw you in the teahouse before and you seemed to know everything, so I have some questions to ask you." Lu Li stared at the two boxes. Jin Fuer's generosity was definitely great. You know, two million black crystals can buy a top-grade treasure! Lu Li pondered for a moment and readily agreed: "You can ask, but if I can't answer, I can't keep it." Jin Fuer quickly exchanged a glance with the Lord of Tianluo City. She didn't expect Lu Li's answer to be so straightforward. At the same time, Jin Fuer felt somewhat disappointed. Anyone who could be tempted by something of such value was probably not a powerful person who had entered the Saint Realm. She immediately asked: "I wonder what you think of Daliang's fate? Can it become a powerful country among the Dongyuan countries in the future?" After asking this question, Jin Fuer stared at Lu Li expectantly, her black and white eyes sparkling with spirit. "Even if he is not a Saint-level expert, with his experience and knowledge, he should be able to give some wise words of warning. If I can't win over a Saint-level expert for my father, I can win over a great scholar." Lu Li frowned slightly, holding his chin and thinking for a long time, and finally stood up and paced back and forth. This made Jin Fuer a little surprised, but she decided to wait patiently. Lu Li thought that the food in front of him was getting cold, so he sighed and shook his head gently. Jin Fuer was very disappointed. She didn't expect Lu Li's performance tonight to be so terrible. But she still held out some hope and asked: "What the gentleman means by shaking his head is..." Lu Li put away his pretentious look, straightened his expression, and looked at Jin Fuer with a slightly sympathetic look: "I have accepted such a valuable thing from you, so I will definitely answer it properly. Why don't you ask the question you want to ask most? Second Princess Jin Fuer!" Jin Fuer froze, then smiled sweetly again: "Mr. Lu is really amazing. Fuer admires him!" "But I don't know what question you want to ask me most, sir?" Lu Li picked up the chopsticks, found a dish that looked good and took a bite. After tasting it, he slowly said: "Of course I'm asking, how can I make that father who despises you, is tired of you, and even hates you, truly recognize you!" Jin Fuer took three steps back, her black and white eyes trembling. She suddenly raised her right hand, and her whole temperament suddenly changed. There was a domineering aura of a royal superior between her eyebrows: "Everyone, stand down!" At the banquet, all the servants of the City Lord's Mansion quickly left, leaving only Lu Li, Zhan Gu, Tianluo City Lord and Jin Fuer. Zhan Gu originally wanted to retreat, but was stopped by Lu Li and he stayed behind to protect the surroundings obediently. Jin Fuer stared at Lu Li. The plain and sweet girl from before was gone. Her face was cold, and her expression was aloof and confused, like a wolf. "Sir, you know my background? Yes, many people in the Imperial City know about my story, so it's not surprising that you know about it." Lu Li stared at Jin Fu'er's strange black and white eyes, then looked at the two boxes beside him with regret and shook his head. "Alas, it seems that I can't take this valuable gift away, because you haven't even thought through your own problems."
Jin Fuer was stunned, but Lu Li had already stood up and left. She said quickly: "Sir, what's the problem I haven't figured out?" Lu Li's voice came from afar: "Of course, do you think you are a human or a monster?" (End of this chapter)
