In the evening of this day, it was the succession ceremony of the new lord, Iai Yazd.

It had only been a day since the palace exploded and the old lord and the two heirs were killed. However, the palace that was bombed into ruins has been restored to its original state, which is amazing to see.

In the square in front of the palace gate, a high platform was also built out of thin air.

Yiai stood on the top of the high platform, wearing a colorful silk robe, with the spotlight shining on her body, which was extremely eye-catching.

Suddenly, the white-robed divine messenger with wings spread behind him descended from the sky and gently placed the crown symbolizing the power of the lord on his head. At the same time, a throne rose beside him.

Yiai put on the crown and sat on the throne, with an unstoppable smile on his face.

The divine envoy stood behind the throne without a loudspeaker, but the words he spoke still spread clearly throughout the city:

"Tonight, following the orders of the Floating City and bathing in the glory of the gods, we gather here to witness the new lord of Yazd City..."

This divine envoy and the new lord, Lord Yiai, are undoubtedly the only two protagonists tonight.

Li Yu and Hilaria, however, stood in the shadow of the alley wall, looking at the high platform in the distance. Hilelia was still wearing ordinary civilian clothes, while Li Yu was wrapped in a pure black slim-fitting suit, wearing

Wearing the same black headscarf and faceband, only a pair of eyes are exposed, hiding the figure under the cover of the night as much as possible.

Standing at such a distance, Hilelia, whose vision was only normal, could only see the two figures on the tower, but Li Yu could distinguish Yiai's body language.

"Both arms were placed on the armrests, heads held high, looking very proud..." Li Yu murmured.

Hilelia asked from the side: "Mr. Li, what did you say?"

Li Yu shook his head slightly: "It's nothing, just wait and see. When the ceremony is over and your brother returns to the palace, we can set off."

The angel's announcement was over, and cheers were heard everywhere in the city. Especially the crowd gathered near the square, the shouts were deafening.

"Long live the lord!"

"Long live the lord!"

"Long live the lord!"

The shouts of tens of thousands of people gathered together, and the shock was quite astonishing.

Hilaria couldn't help but cover her chest. She didn't know whether it was suppressing her heartbeat, or whether her chest was resonating with the shouts.

Li Yu glanced at her and suddenly asked: "When your father succeeded to the throne, you never saw that scene, right?"

Hilelia: "When I was born, my father was already a lord."

Li Yu: "So, do you know where your father's brothers and sisters went?"

Hilelia was stunned for a moment and said uncertainly: "It seems that he went to another city...one uncle went out to be a businessman, and there were two aunts, both of whom were married to nobles from other places."

The girl's voice got lower as she went on. Regarding the issue of the future, she didn't want to mention it anymore, but now it was put in front of her, and she couldn't escape it.

Li Yu smiled and said: "Then have you ever thought about learning magic?"

Hearing this, Hilelia was dumbfounded. For a noble girl who grew up in the palace and could see divine messengers from time to time, this was undoubtedly an unimagined path.

But now that I think about it carefully... no matter how I think about it, it feels so strange!

Li Yu just smiled at the shock and confusion on the girl's face and did not try to persuade her. After all, he just suddenly thought of such a possibility and mentioned it casually.

At this time, Chen Hu walked over from the alley and said: "The inspection is complete, there is no problem with the tunnel, and no one has discovered it. My friend, you can just go there."

————

When he walked into the secret tunnel entrance, Li Yu put on his backpack again. Only this time, it was no longer Ella, but a complete set of bugs, cameras, signal transmitters, and corresponding power supply and charging devices.

The size of the tunnel was limited, so Li Yu could only bend down slightly and lower his head. Fortunately, the tunnel was dug fairly flat and there were lights, so it was not too strenuous to walk.

After walking for a while, the tunnel suddenly turned upwards, with an iron ladder attached to the wall.

Li Yu climbed up.

Further up, you will reach the tunnel's exit.

The exit is hidden in a tree. This tree is located in the palace garden, relatively close to the side, and has not been destroyed by the previous explosion. Moreover, the trunk is hollowed out and fixed with titanium metal. Even if other trees fall down, it will be difficult to fall down.

Down.

Climbing out of the tunnel entrance, he was in the canopy on the top of the tree trunk. There were many branches and leaves around him for cover, but his eyes could observe the surrounding situation through the gaps in the branches and leaves.

I have to admit that Chen Hu and his colleague who died tragically ran the city of Yazd well. If it weren't for a series of unexpected changes, even if they couldn't help Shapu take over, they should still be able to cause trouble to the envoys here.

More trouble... Moreover, the action plan at this time was also decided after discussion between Chen Hu and Li Yu who survived last night.

Li Yu jumped down, squatted in the shadow of the tree trunk, and looked around again.

There were several small groups of palace guards patrolling, but the number was not large.

He made some estimates and quickly determined that the route planned in advance was basically feasible.

So he jumped down, rolled forward the moment he landed, and fluttered forward again, shrinking into the shadow of another tree in front of him.

Moving forward, moving forward through the shadows...

Yiai stood in the lord's large bedroom, facing the brand new full-length mirror, and was silent for a long time.

The palace was newly built, so there were no decorations inside. In his opinion, it was a bit crude. Fortunately, a mirror was placed so that he could admire himself wearing a crown and colorful robes.

"The lord of Yazd City, the glorious man who holds the power, Iai Yazd..." He muttered to himself, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and he couldn't suppress them at all.

However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door of the big bedroom.

Yiai cleared his throat and asked in the simplest words in the most dignified voice possible: "Who?"

Lord, you should cherish your words like gold.

But the next moment, the person outside the door not only did not answer, but opened the door.

Yiai was about to rebuke angrily, but when he saw the face of the visitor clearly, his whole body froze. The majestic posture that he had just managed to accumulate disappeared in an instant.

Li Yu, who had pulled off his black headscarf and face scarf, stood at the door, folded his hands on his chest, and said jokingly: "Good evening, Lord. It seems that you are quite happy now."

"I, uh...not, I..."

Yiai hesitated, not even knowing what he was talking about.

Li Yu did not draw a gun, did not take out any weapons, and did not make a clear threat. But at this moment, Yi Ai fully understood what it meant for Mr. Li to appear here. You know, the new envoy who came today is

Living upstairs, but no response.

Therefore, as long as Li Yu is willing, he can appear in Yi Ai's room on any seemingly ordinary night in the future.
