C1088

After Hua Ruge heard the news, she thought for a bit. This was indeed a chance to see Shangguan Li, but she was thinking whether or not she should sink so deep into the abyss.

Before making her decision, she decided to head towards the City Lord's Mansion. No matter what, she would take a look first.

When she arrived, the front of the City Lord's Mansion was already packed with people, but that vermilion door was tightly shut. Nobody came out to answer for a long time.

These people not only started to talk about the prestige of the City Lord's Mansion, but they were also talking about how not a single one of them had left.

The Ye Family was the largest family with a radius of a thousand miles. As rogue cultivators who did not have talent to enter the immortal sects, their only hope of turning the tables was to rely on these families.

These people had been waiting outside for the whole morning. When noon arrived, the door opened and a man who looked like a butler stood out and said, "This old man is the steward of the Mayor's mansion. I've made you wait for a long time."

"Not long." Everyone in the audience said, as if they weren't talking about them.

"First of all, thank you all for coming. The City Lord's Mansion's treatment will not disappoint you." The manager continued.

"What are your conditions?" How many rounds of selection do I have to go through? " Impatient people really couldn't listen to such nonsense.

The butler also just so happened not to want to say anything, so after hearing that, he said: "The condition is Immortal Sovereign, and as long as this condition is met, you can enter the palace to become a guard."

Those who knew well that the Ye Family's selections were very strict. Not only did they have high requirements in terms of strength, but they also had to go through various tests and passed several rounds of tests.

After all, the orphanage required a large amount of spirit stones, so the Ye Clan had to be cautious.

But this time, it was reduced to a level where only cultivators could enter. Was he not afraid of losing money?

Hua Ruge squinted his eyes as he thought about it for a while. In the end, he let out a faint laugh and was the first to stand out: "I want to register."

With her taking the lead, everyone else reacted and rushed forward. "I also want to register."

"And me."

"Don't push, I came first."

There were other courtyards within the mansion that maintained order. After that, he brought these people into the manor and recorded down their names and cultivations before distributing them to the side courtyard.

Hua Ruge estimated that there were two hundred people in this line. She had mostly relied on Great Immortal Stage and also lied about herself being a Great Immortal Stage cultivator, so she didn't stand out amongst these people.

After these people entered the City Lord's Mansion, the admissions did not stop and continued.

Hua Ruge felt that this matter was not simple, it was possible that the Ye Family was about to make a big move, thus he sneaked in to see if he could help Shangguan Li with something.

The newly-arrived guards had yet to be assigned any jobs, but their lives had suddenly undergone a great change, so they were unable to calm down and cultivate. Thus, they began to chat in groups.

Hua Ruge got up and went to the kitchen to look for food. No matter where she went, she didn't want to suffer any grievances.

The kitchen was not open for the guards in theory, but it couldn't stop Hua Ruge. He said a few nice words to the little girl in the kitchen and she coaxed a roasted chicken away.

Hua Ruge carried the plate and sat by the well. As he ate, he sighed.

She had no intention of leaving, so she chatted with the girl while eating the chicken leg.

She had only spoken a few sentences when she heard a sound of something shattering in the kitchen. Following which, a girl's angry voice sounded out, "What are you doing? Is this my Miss's soup?"

Hua Ruge raised his eyebrows, this voice was very familiar.

Following that, another girl's voice sounded out, "Oh, why are you in such a hurry? I didn't do it on purpose. Why don't you just cook another pot?"

"You sound so relaxed. I stewed this pot for four hours!"

"Heh, it's good enough for a destitute lady of your family to have something to drink, what else is there to care about?" The girl said in disdain.

"You are being impudent. Is xiaojie someone you can discuss with?" The girl from before argued furiously.

"I really don't dare to not touch young miss, but that person in your courtyard is a different story."

"You dare? I'll fight you to the death!"

"I don't believe that you still dare to attack!"

The two of them were stuck in a deadlock, while Hua Ruge laughed, because she could hear that the young lady who was being beaten up was actually Shangguan Li's personal servant, Lan Er.

In the small world, she was the little girl that she had taken liberties with quite a few times.

The current conflict was clearly another girl deliberately finding fault.

Hua Ruge set the plate on the side, went around the lady who was trying to hit on him and walked straight in.

"Young master, you are not allowed to enter the kitchen."

Hua Ruge ignored them and walked over to Lan Er and the other girl dressed in pink, smiling as he said, "Sisters, what are you fighting about?

She had the appearance of a lackey, causing the pink-clothed girl to be stunned.

Lan Er was the same. It was not because the leather bag was evil and beautiful, but because she had seen this face before.

Li Dahai!

No, it's Hua Ruge!

When she thought about this, her eyes lit up. Hua Ruge gave her a face, so she didn't say anything.

The pink-clothed girl reacted and asked politely, "May I know which family you are from?"

Looking at Hua Ruge's clothing and temperament, it was really difficult for her to have the first impression of him being a guard.

"More than that, is the girl hurt?" Hua Ruge pointed to the broken bowl on the ground and asked in concern.

"No ?." "No ?" The girl stuttered.

Hua Ruge laughed: "That's good, what happened?"

The little girl originally wanted to bully Lan Er, but she didn't want to leave a bad impression in front of this man, so she said: "It was I who accidentally messed with Little Sister Lan Er's bowl of soup, I hope that Little Sister will forgive me."

There was disdain in Lan Er's eyes, and also a little schadenfreude.

"This girl is really considerate." Hua Ruge laughed, then looked towards Lan Er and said: "I don't know what the price of this bowl of soup is, I'll help her compensate, then let's forget about the matter."

Lan Er snorted, she knew Hua Ruge was helping her and wanted to say that there was no need, but Hua Ruge gave her a wink.

She thought for a moment before replying, "At least two hundred spiritual stones."

"No problem." As Hua Ruge spoke, he took out a piece of Spirit Stone Card, and said: "Take out yours, I will draw yours for you."

The pink-robed girl was about to fall into a daze.

Actually, this couldn't be blamed on her. No one would be that moved when they saw a dashing and considerate man.

Lan Er naturally did not have any Spirit Stone Card s, so she shook her head.

"It doesn't matter. Bring me to see your master, and I'll compensate her." Hua Ruge said again.2

Lan Er finally understood what Hua Ruge was planning, and after pretending to think about it, he agreed.

Before Hua Ruge left, he said to the pink clothed servant: "Rest assured, leave this matter to me."
