Under normal circumstances, this Elder seems to have sufficient reasons to capture Ye Luo in exchange for the goodwill of the Junior City Lord!

However, for some reason, Ye Luo wants to trust this Elder!

After all, it seems that Ye Luo now really has no one else to turn to for help!

"Alright, I’ll wait three days! I hope there will be good news!"

Ye Luo said to the Elder!

Because Ye Luo had already made his decision.

Three days of waiting is bearable for Ye Luo. Even though Nalan Chen will inevitably suffer during these days, compared to the rescue of his life, three days of hardship surely wouldn’t be minded by Nalan Chen!

Ye Luo is ready and during these three days, he will remain vigilant. Any signs of disturbance, and he would immediately change his hiding spot!

However, Ye Luo was overthinking it!

In fact, previously, the Elder had thought of using beauty as a strategy because in his heart, if Ye Luo stayed in the Nalan Family for Nalan Rou, perhaps, he may be willing to forge a good relationship with another beautiful woman and their Yibao Commerce Guild!

Martial Realm is not Earth; here, polygamy is not a problem at all!

As long as you have the power, as long as you are strong enough, then whatever you do, in the eyes of others, it doesn’t really matter!

This is a world where strength is respected, everything speaks through strength!

Therefore, when this Elder proposed his idea to the headquarters, the Yibao Commerce Guild’s headquarters personally sent over a woman!

Of course, whether they can befriend Ye Luo as they hoped remains unknown!

Three days passed in the blink of an eye!

During these three days, Ye Luo kept an eye on Nalan Chen. Fortunately, Nalan Chen was not in danger.

On the noon of the third day, that Elder from the Yibao Commerce Guild contacted Ye Luo proactively, informing him that someone would come to find him!

He didn’t even need to ask where Ye Luo was at that moment!

It turns out, Yibao Commerce Guild had always known where Ye Luo was hiding!

Thinking of this, Ye Luo couldn’t help but feel somewhat afraid; if Yibao Commerce Guild were on the side of the Junior City Lord, Ye Luo might have already perished or been captured.

After waiting a moment longer, Ye Luo saw a young girl find him!

This girl wore a white long robe and had a graceful appearance, not at all inferior to Nalan Rou!

But Ye Luo was somewhat puzzled, could it be that this was the help Yibao Commerce Guild had sent for him?

However, this girl did have considerable strength; she had actually reached the Seventh Realm of the Qi Cyclone!

A Seventh Realm Qi Cyclone level in this small Nan Zhou City is indeed deservedly a powerful one!

"Greetings, young master, my name is Lu Yi, I am a guard disciple of Yibao Commerce Guild, here specifically to assist Young Master Ye!"

Lu Yi was also carefully observing Ye Luo; in fact, he was not a guard disciple at all, but a songstress specially trained by the Yibao Commerce Guild!

In the Martial Realm, almost every great power cultivates some special talents!

Apart from general martial artists, songstresses are the most common!

A so-called songstress is a young girl selected from childhood by great powers for their talents and looks, and then cultivated to be deployed for special tasks when necessary!

Such as being sent to some major figures to strengthen relations, or to seduce some special talents!

Overall, the status of songstresses is very low, yet they are a special group that every major power is cultivating!

Most of these people are either orphaned girls or individuals who have voluntarily sold themselves into servitude.

Lu Yi is such a pitiful person!

Originally, Lu Yi was a girl from a common family living on the border of the Great Tang Empire. But one day, an extremely powerful demon beast invaded their village!

Her parents were tragically killed on that day, and she was taken away by the Yibao Commerce Guild to undergo special training.

Lu Yi had long known that her mission this time was to befriend Ye Luo at all costs, even if it meant sacrificing herself!

It could be said that from now on, Lu Yi belonged to Ye Luo, only, these matters, Lu Yi couldn’t possibly disclose at present!

The two observed each other, each with their own doubts, but soon, Lu Yi steered the conversation back to business.

"Young Master, here is the map you require!"

While speaking, Lu Yi handed a jade slip to Ye Luo.

This is the basic method of storing information in the Martial Realm, as the jade slip can’t be opened unless one has the specific method to do so.

Ye Luo reached out to receive it, and only upon obtaining the map did he truly understand just how much more stringent the City Lord’s Mansion’s security was than he had believed.

However, at this moment, Lu Yi took out a Hundred Treasures Pouch.

"Young Master, I know your plan is to sneak into the City Lord’s Mansion and meet Nalan Chen. Here are some magical treasures I’ve prepared that might help you in this operation!"

Ye Luo paused slightly, inspected the Hundred Treasures Pouch, and found indeed there were not a few treasures inside!

There were magical treasures specifically to shield surveillance, as well as elixirs that could alter one’s appearance and more.

However, Ye Luo did not scrutinize these treasures closely, but rather looked towards Lu Yi.

"Why would you help me so much?"

Indeed, this was Ye Luo’s puzzle because, after all, Lu Yi’s behavior looked too abnormal in his eyes!

In Ye Luo’s view, he was new to the Martial Realm, without power or influence, his only reliance being the Nalan Family, but now even the Nalan Family had been destroyed, and what’s more, he was facing the Junior City Lord of Nan Zhou City!

So, no matter how you looked at it, Lu Yi had no reason to help him!

On the contrary, if anyone knew of Ye Luo’s mad plan, they should normally distance themselves far away and not come forth actively, but why did Lu Yi choose to do so?

Ye Luo couldn’t understand—what benefit was there in this for Lu Yi? Even if it was for the Yibao Commerce Guild, yet what benefit did such actions have for them?

A moment later, since Ye Luo couldn’t figure it out, he decided to just ask directly!

"Lu Yi, why do you want to help me so?"

Ye Luo asked straightforwardly.

Given Ye Luo’s direct approach, Lu Yi smiled. In fact, since Lu Yi knew she might have to follow Ye Luo from now on, naturally she hoped the more capable Ye Luo was, the better.

Since she couldn’t choose her own destiny, the only thing Lu Yi could hope for was to obtain a better master!

Undoubtedly, Ye Luo’s performance was quite satisfactory to Lu Yi.

"To reply to Young Master, if Lu Yi tells you I am a songstress, you should understand!"

Choosing to trust means holding nothing back. This is Lu Yi’s way of survival, as it is for all songstresses. For them, since they have changed masters, it’s natural to trust and obey unconditionally!
