Liyue Port, suburbs.

Ning Yu stood by the intersection, folding his arms and squinting his eyes, looking a little unhappy.

Beside him, Dadalia was holding an iron bow, looking excited and eager to try.

In front of them, there was a petite wild rabbit running in the grass.

It seemed to be stared at by something, and it was a little panicked at the moment.

"..."

Ning Yu looked expressionlessly at Dadalia, who had already begun to bend the bow and arrow beside him, and was speechless for a moment.

Dadalia didn't care at all about Ning Yu's expression. He pulled back the string of his iron bow and pointed it at the wild rabbit.

Whoosh——

The next second, the sharp arrow accurately hit a young rock dragon lizard that had just emerged from the ground. It was just a hair away from catching the escaping hare.

The hare seemed to feel the arrow flying past at close range, and was so frightened that it froze in place.

"Hmm, not bad~"

Seeing that the blow was successful, Dadalia clapped her hands excitedly and turned her head to look at Ning Yu proudly.

"..."

Seeing Dadalia's happy expression, Ning Yu just stared with dead eyes and said nothing.

This guy has been following him shamelessly since he finished eating at Wanmintang, saying that he hadn't walked with his friends for a long time and needed to digest after just eating...

Digestion sucks!

You are an executive of fools! Are you so idle all day long?

It's a pity that Ning Yu doesn't want to fight now and doesn't even want to raise his hand, so there is no way to stop Dadalia.

So, when walking to the outskirts of Liyue Port, Dadalia even brought an iron bow.

"Dadalia, do you know what I am going to do?"

After a few minutes of silence, Ning Yu finally couldn't bear it anymore and immediately spoke with a cold face.

"Ah? I don't know. Where are you going?"

Dadalia touched his head and smiled innocently.

The wild rabbit had already reacted after the initial panic. At this moment, it did not dare to take a second look at the dead young rock dragon lizard and ran away.

"..."

Ning Yu took a deep breath and then looked sharply at Dadalia.

"I'm going to Tianqiu Valley, do you want to come with me?"

"Tianqiu Valley? Okay, there are still some advance troops patrolling there. If you want to do anything, I will tell them and I will ensure that they won't cause you any trouble."

Speaking of Tianqiu Valley, Dadalia became even more energetic.

"Moreover, the Liyue branch happened to have lost contact with the advance team in this land, so we decided to look for these missing poor people."

"Missing?"

Hearing this word, Ning Yu frowned subconsciously.

Have the advance team of Fools disappeared here...

"Yes." Dadalia didn't realize that this was important information at all, and he said carelessly at this moment: "And there is no news. No matter what method, we can't contact them."

Is there such a thing?

"..."

After a moment of silence, Ning Yu finally nodded and agreed to let Dadalia go with him.

According to his understanding of Dadalia, if he disagreed, he would have followed her all the way... Rather than being like that, it would be better to simply treat him as a combat servant.

"First of all, let's talk about it. What I want to do this time is a private matter and has nothing to do with Liyue Port. If you want to get something as a fool, go back as soon as possible."

In any case, Ning Yu still warned Dadalia.

Hearing this, Dadalia waved his hands indifferently.

"I told you, this time I went to Tianqiu Valley on the one hand to accompany your friend for a walk, and on the other hand I wanted to look for those poor people."

"As for what you want to get..."

The young man paused and showed a helpless expression.

"If I really have this idea, then I won't look for you. I would get more information by testing Ningzhe than by talking to you."

Hearing Dadalia's words, Ning Yu nodded subconsciously.

Indeed, Ningzhe knew much more than him in this aspect.

but...

If Dadalia really tests Ningzhe, he will probably get some information, but he will lose much more information.

"Then let's go."

After coming back to his senses, Ning Yu nodded lightly at Dadalia, and then took the lead in taking steps.

"..."

Seeing Ning Yu's back, Dadalia's eyes narrowed slightly, he quietly put a hand behind his back, and then followed him.

...

Liyue Port.

Ningzhe drove the rock dragon lizard, quickly and slowly, and finally arrived at the official road in the north of Liyue.

Afterwards, Ningzhe released the mental control of the dragon lizard and allowed it to return to the wild. He also very considerately gave it a mental boost.

The effect is also very simple. When facing humans, the will to fight plummets, and when facing predators and prey, the will to fight soars.

All in all, it's still very good.

Ningzhe watched with satisfaction as the rock dragon lizard slipped away like it was running for its life, then patted the corner of his clothes and walked towards Liyue Port.

However... Before he even stepped across the bridge, Ningzhe spotted a man in strange clothes standing at the end of the bridge.

The man was dressed in white clothes and wearing a strange mask, standing there...as if he had completely blended into the environment, and no one could detect his presence.

"..."

Almost instantly, Ningzhe became 100% vigilant, but his expression remained unchanged and he just walked over there calmly.

"Hello, Boss Ning."

When he was about three meters away from the man in white, the mysterious man suddenly spoke.

What's interesting is that his body didn't turn, and his whole body didn't move at all.

If he hadn't heard his name, Ningzhe wouldn't even be sure if this person was talking to him.

"Um...hello?"

Out of politeness, Ningzhe still smiled and nodded.

However, after saying this, the man in white made no other movements or words.

"..."

After being silent for a while, Ningzhe glanced at the sky, hesitated for a moment and then said: "You...are there any reasons why you stopped me? If there is nothing important, I will..."

"Boss Ning... It turns out that you are the one who hides the most among all of them..."

After a while, the man in white seemed to finally come to his senses and sighed, with a melancholy tone.

"Hide? Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean."

Upon hearing this, Ningzhe was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

"Introduce yourself."

Seeing that Ningzhe didn't trust him very much, the man in white didn't hesitate and said directly: "My name is Yunfu, and I am the current Privy Council member [in white]."

"What do you find me for?"

Upon hearing this person's identity, surprise flashed across Ningzhe's eyes, but that was all, and then he spoke calmly.

Privy Councilor in White...Although he has a high position and authority, he is far inferior to his elder sister Ningguang.

"...As expected of Boss Ning."

After seeing Ningzhe's performance, Bai Yi let out a long sigh.

"In this case, I won't hide it from you."

"I know you are investigating the damage to the ley lines...but if you want to solve it completely..."

"Before it's too late, come to the Privy Council to find [me] as soon as possible."

"Now that the emperor has passed away, I can no longer resist [him]."

After saying that, the man in white turned into smoke and disappeared, as if he had never appeared.

What does it mean to resist [him]?

The words of the man in white contained so much information that Ningzhe was a little unable to react.

but...

Although the situation is not clear, at least there is a clear clue.

Privy Council?
