Lu Li was speechless, looking at how curious Ye Yu was. She was not afraid of strangers at all and she was trying to be familiar with him.
Just now, Ye Yu gave him the impression that she was a dignified and beautiful young lady from a respectable family. He didn't expect that she would change so quickly.
Lu Li didn't answer Ye Yu's question. He just asked with a frown, "Where is your brother?"
"My brother went to the Buddha Mountain!"
Ye Yu stuck her tongue out and said, "My brother asked me to stay. You have a message for me.
Young Master Lu, you haven't answered my question yet. "
Lu Li's face glowed. The muscles on his body and face moved and he changed back to his original appearance. Then, he explained, "This is an ancient skill. This is not a disguise so you cannot tell that I am disguising myself.
As for this skill … it is not mine. A friend taught it to me so I cannot teach it to you. "
"Wow, that is amazing!"
Ye Yu's pretty eyelashes twitched. She looked at Lu Li carefully and said, "You look better now. Right … Brother Li, what was that skill you used to hurt that man? It was so powerful …"
She changed from Young Master Lu to Brother Li and she moved closer to Lu Li, looking at him like he was a rare animal.
Lu Li twitched his nose and asked with confusion, "Lady Ye Yu, this is the first time we have met, right?
You are a young lady of the Ye Family. Shouldn't you be more reserved? "
"Ha, ha ~"
Ye Yu was not embarrassed at all. Instead, she made a funny face and said, "This is the first time we have met but I know you well, Brother Li.
I have collected all the information about you and I know all the legends about you. My brother often tells me about you.
You and my brother have been through life and death together. Is it wrong for me to call you brother? "
Looking at Ye Yu's bitter expression, Lu Li felt embarrassed himself. He grinned and said, "Yes, yes.
Now that I have a sister, I will give you a gift. "
Lu Li thought about it and took out a red Holy Grade soft armor and gave it to Ye Yu. Her worry turned into joy. She smiled sweetly and said, "Brother Li, you are so nice!"
"Little devil …"
Lu Li exclaimed to himself. Ye Luo must have a headache with such a clever sister.
He didn't forget to get down to business. It wasn't convenient for Ye Luo to meet him, so he could only let Ye Yu pass the message.
He instructed, "Go back and tell your brother that if it's inconvenient for me to bid for a spirit fruit in tomorrow's auction, ask him to help me bid for it.
That Spiritual Fruit is called the Bodhi Fruit. No matter how much it costs, we have to get it. I will pay him back how many Xuan Crystals he spent. "
"Yes, yes!"
Night Rain didn't dare to delay. She nodded and then tilted her head and said, "Brother Li, are you usually in the Northern Desert or the Clouds Plains?
Can you take me out to play sometime?
My brother is too strict with me. I'm not allowed to go out and play.
By the way... do you have a small world that connects the Northern Desert and the Clouds Plains? "
"Uh …"
Lu Li was surprised. This had aroused the suspicions of the major families of the Central Plains. Of course, he would not talk about the Deserted World. He just smiled and said, "If you want to visit the Northern Desert or the Clouds Plains, you can. Just tell me when you get there.
Hmm … It's not convenient for me to stay here for too long. I'll take my leave first. We'll meet up again after the auction. "
"Okay!"
Night Rain looked at Lu Li with hidden bitterness and said, "Brother Li, you must take me there or I won't call you my brother anymore."
Lu Li left with a bitter smile. He didn't think Night Rain was annoying.
It was just that it was not the right time to hang around with Night Rain. Others might get suspicious. Who knew if there were scouts from other families lurking around?
He walked out and left with Gu Min. The two of them went straight back to their residence.
Lu Li had been thinking about the banquet at noon to see if there were any mistakes.
He wasn't sure when he got back to his place.
It was because Ji Mengtian was too smart. He had been in the limelight too much today, which might arouse Ji Mengtian's suspicion.
As for Gu Fengliu's identity, it didn't matter. The auction was going to start tomorrow. It was too late for Ji Mengtian to look into Gu Fengliu now. She couldn't get accurate information in one day.
What was more, Gu Min did say there was a person called Gu Fengliu. He had been missing for years. Even if Ji Mengtian looked into him, she wouldn't get much information.
"Never mind …"
It was pointless to overthink. Everything would depend on the auction tomorrow.
If Ji Mengtian wanted to make trouble, he would do it even if he had to rob her in public. He didn't believe that the Samsara Palace would dare to kill him in public.
…
In an elegant yard in Mount Buddha, Ji Mengtian and Die Feiyu were drinking tea in a pavilion surrounded by flowers.
They came here after they left the banquet. Ji Mengtian said nothing while Die Feiyu frowned as if she was still thinking about what happened at the banquet.
"Feiyu."
Ji Mengtian asked after some thoughts, "What do you think is wrong with that Gu Fengliu?"
Die Feiyu was still frowning. She took a sip of tea and said, "I don't know. I just feel something strange about him.
He seems familiar and strange at the same time. "
"Familiar? Strange?"
A glint of coldness rose in Ji Mengtian's eyes. She said, "Feiyu, do you think he is … Lu Li?"
"Lu Li?"
Die Feiyu was taken aback. A glint of fear rose in her eyes. She remembered the days that she could not bear to look back on. She trembled.
After a while, she shook her head and said, "I don't think he is Lu Li. There is no trace of disguise.
Also, if he is Lu Li, why would he be so high-profile?
After all, this is the Central Plains.
Also, if he is Lu Li, what is he doing at the City of Buddha?
There are so many powerful warriors here and young masters from different families are here. Isn't he afraid that he won't be able to leave? "
"If he is Lu Li, he must be here to buy Bodhi Fruit."
Ji Mengtian put on a cold smile and said, "Now that I think about it, I feel he is familiar. It is very likely that he is Lu Li.
Hmm … apart from him, who else would have the guts to trick us? "
On further thought, there were more flaws.
For example, the Gu Family was just a fifth-rank family. Unless Gu Fengliu was an idiot, he wouldn't have the guts to offend so many young masters and young ladies from wealthy families. It would bring endless disasters to the Gu Family.
She and Die Feiyu were of such high status that Gu Fengliu dared to disrespect them in public?
If Gu Fengliu had always been like this, he would have been killed a long time ago.
"Is it really Lu Li?"
Die Feiyu was surprised. She thought about it and said, "How about we send someone to look into it?
It will be easy to find out if there is such a person in the Gu Family. "
"No need!"
Ji Mengtian sneered and said, "We will find out at tomorrow's auction. If he is bidding for the Bodhi Fruit, then he is right.
Hmm … whether he is Lu Li or not, he is not going to get the Bodhi Fruit. "
Die Feiyu was worried by Ji Mengtian's ferocious look. She said timidly, "Sister Mengtian, I think … you shouldn't go against Lu Li.
He is a demon. You will be the one to suffer if you go against him! "
"Hmm."
