Li Yu stood in the dark, watching Yi Ai step into the palace gate surrounded by everyone.

Hilaria stayed by his side.

The news that His Highness the Third Prince had been found spread quickly throughout the city. It didn't take long for the people who tried to take advantage of this opportunity to become rich and prosperous to disperse.

Under the inspection of the re-armed city guards, order was gradually restored, and the agitated and uneasy mood of the people also dissipated. People returned to their houses, and fewer and fewer people stayed on the street.

The sky has turned completely dark.

The entire city of Yazd was shrouded in night. Only the street lights separated by dozens of meters and the light coming from the windows of every house prevented the eyes from falling into the darkness of the night.

After standing there for an unknown amount of time, Li Yu suddenly turned around and saw Hilelia standing against the wall.

There were two lines of tears on the delicate face of this noble girl.

Li Yu asked calmly: "Why are you crying?"

Hilelia shook her head, raised the back of her hand and wiped her face: "Nothing..."

Her voice was very soft and helpless, like a child who couldn't go home.

Without much thinking, Li Yu could understand the mood of this noble girl at this time. Her father and two brothers were dead, and the remaining brother was busy inheriting the position of lord and did not seem to care about her situation. Cheng

Everyone there is either thinking about how to make a profit from the chaos, or thinking about how to protect themselves. There seems to be no one who cares about her in this world.

Although he understood it, Li Yu certainly couldn't let her go back so easily.

When saying goodbye, Aila once said that after Yiai succeeds to the throne, ensuring that he does not completely fall to the Kingdom of God is his 'next mission'. However, it is difficult for Li Yu to think of how to complete this task.

Have a clear actionable plan.

So he could only try his best to hold the chips in his hand, such as the noble girl next to him. In addition, the chips also included the recording, but Li Yu did not dare to be too optimistic about the restraining effect of the recording.

So is it still okay... to use some means to make Hilelia fall in love with him when she is most isolated and helpless, and then put her back to Ia, and manipulate her to do things for him through emotions?

This unscrupulous idea only existed in Li Yu's mind for a few seconds. After all, the reliability of this method was too low, and in his opinion, it was really a bit too base.

After a long silence, Hilelia said softly: "Mr. Li, you..."

Before she finished speaking, she saw Li Yu making a silent gesture, so she quickly shut her mouth and stopped talking.

Li Yu asked her to be quiet because there was a sound coming from the earphones.

The pair of extremely tiny headphones that were used to communicate with Ella before and were attached to the inside of the ear canal now sounded the signal sound of "didi, beep, beep" - just like the night when they landed in the floating city.

, the density of this sound will also change according to the direction of his body.

Li Yu took a few steps and determined the direction indicated by the signal sound. He turned back and was about to ask Hilelia to follow him, but saw that the noble girl had silently walked behind him.

The two looked at each other.

The night wind blew by, causing the bangs on her forehead to flutter, so the streetlights shining from above also rippled on her little face, like the ripples of a clear spring under the moonlight. The green eyes under the fluttering hair

, it seems to be particularly bright at night.

Hilelia said timidly: "Mr. Li, I will follow you."

Li Yu smiled and continued to move forward.

Following the guidance of the signal sound, Li Yu found a tavern.

The street where the tavern is located is obviously more lively than other areas in the city. There are taverns, restaurants that are open late at night, and some shops with ambiguous pink lights.

Although the whole city experienced an unprecedented turmoil not long ago, the business on this street has not been affected at this time. Perhaps, because people's hearts are fluctuating, the business here is actually better?

It's just that Li Yu has never been here before and has no way to compare.

He took Hilaria into the tavern.

It was a lively place. A long counter, a dozen round tables and many men and women occupied the space. There were people sitting at every table. Everyone had their own circle. The common thing was that most people were holding up their hands.

Glass, chat and drink while having fun.

As soon as he entered the door, a figure stopped in front of Li Yu.

This person is not a bartender, a security guard, or a store clerk, and judging from his friendly smile, he doesn't seem to be looking for trouble.

Li Yu's eyes narrowed because he noticed that the facial features of the man in front of him had a very familiar style - not like the West, but more like coming from the East. The black hair and dark brown pupils were similar to Li Yu's own

The same.

"Hello, friend, my name is Chen Hu, why don't you go inside and talk?"

Hearing this sentence, Li Yu was slightly in a trance. But he immediately realized that this person was not speaking the familiar Chinese, but the standard language commonly used in the new era. But the name 'Chen Hu' obviously comes from Chinese

.

Li Yu followed this man, passed through the back hall of the tavern, and walked into a small room.

When he arrived at the hut, Chen Hu glanced at the girl behind Li Yu and reminded: "Friend, do you want the Fourth Highness to have a good rest?"

Li Yu: "Do you have any free rooms here?"

Chen Hu opened the secret door next to him, revealing a small room with two single beds.

Li Yu pointed inside and said, "Your Highness, please have a good rest."

Hilaria grabbed her dress and walked in. She looked back at him again, her eyes a little uneasy, but she didn't say much.

Li Yu moved to close the secret door.

Chen Hu whistled and said, "Your Highness, the Princess, is so obedient to you? My friend, you are so awesome."

"My name is Li Yu."

"Well, I have met you, the new advisor to His Highness the Third Highness. Let me introduce myself. My name is Chen Hu, and I am a formal member of the Mage Association. Last year, I took over the task issued by the association and came to Yazd.

I worked as an advisor to His Highness Cheng Er...and then what happened tonight. His Highness was ambushed by the divine envoy. My colleagues and I helped him escape, and then we had a big battle with the divine envoy. It's a pity that the divine envoy is still there.

One, and we are defeated."

Li Yu: "Your colleague is dead, right?"

Chen Hu nodded helplessly: "And it's too bad that he fell into the hands of the divine envoy. He probably couldn't stand the torture of the divine envoy, so he revealed the escape route of His Highness, and as a result, His Highness also..."

Li Yu: "But the divine envoy is also dead."

Chen Hu whistled again and said, "I wasn't sure before. So is that bastard really dead? Did you kill him?"

Li Yu slowly shook his head: "It's not me, it's the one who was traveling with me... I don't know if you have ever heard of a name called Ella."

"Ella?" Chen Hu froze immediately, "You mean, the immortal Ella!"

Looking at this man's expression, Li Yu realized that Ella's name in the Mage Association might be louder than he thought.
