It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

"It is Envoy Xu's freedom to go wherever he wants. How can I interfere?"

While speaking, a figure emerged from the black shadow not far away, and he replied with a blank expression.

"...Brother Cheng sent you to follow me?"

Xu Shi raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise - he had seen this person before, and he was the one who led the way to Cheng Gujian's residence for the meeting just now, but he didn't know his name.

However, he had long sensed that Cheng Gujian had sent people to secretly monitor his movements... High mental power is not something that can be done for nothing. Moreover, even if he didn't use mental power, he knew that Cheng Gujian would most likely do so just by guessing his nature. He even encouraged himself to be his cannon fodder.

Therefore, many of his previous words had already taken this into consideration. Whether it was saying that he could accept it or not giving the Knights Templar a good face, they were all attitudes in small details. We are of the same mind.

Of course, if there is really something you don't want him to know, Xu Shi has a hundred ways to do it.

"Messenger Xu is joking. It's just that you left in a hurry just now, and Duke Gu Jian couldn't catch up with you, so he asked me to send some things to you."

The middle-aged man named Chen shook his head and handed him a bundle.

When he opened it, he found that it was well prepared. They were all the things that Xu Shi had mentioned when he was negotiating with Cheng Gujian... some animal and plant samples, including some props of "Shenqi" technology, which were obviously used to smooth things over for him.

"Brother Cheng is really thoughtful."

Xu Shi smiled and took it without hesitation, "Could you please thank him for me, Housekeeper Chen? Is it okay for me to call you that?"

"no problem."

Butler Chen squeezed his lips and forced a smile, "Messenger Xu, you are also a thoughtful person, so the Grand Duke favors you... On the contrary, some people, who have only eaten the royal family's full meals for a few days, are tempted by someone's greed again."

"Brother Chen, it sounds like you are scolding me."

Lu Baiyan blinked and looked at him innocently.

"It's you who's scolding me."

Butler Chen did not shy away from saying, "You, Lu Baiyan, were a member of the Royal Court Knights three years ago, but now you are calling the Holy See very friendly. Don't forget that your knight's emblem was personally sealed by Her Majesty the Queen."

"Everyone has his or her own ambitions."

Lu Baiyan was not angry, and still smiled, "The Knights Templar are neutral, but they have been going to the Vatican a lot recently, and they haven't changed their tune for a while."

"Then it seems that our little brother Luo Yu is the same?"

Xu Shi interrupted with interest. He hadn't had time to carefully study the relationship between these large and small organizations. It sounds like Luo Yu was also a knight of the royal court? Is there something?

Based on this point alone, it is not easy for the young man to touch and roll.

"It's really not."

Unexpectedly, Butler Chen just shook his head and said, "This Knight Luo's situation is a little different from others... He ranked among the top in the knight selection test at that time, so he was directly canonized by Her Majesty the Queen and the Saint of the Holy See."

Is that so?

The little empress was canonized together with some saint. From the tone of Butler Chen, one could tell that such a thing was quite rare.

But if we look at the protagonist Luo Yu, it seems to be a lot more logical.

Especially for a rubbish protagonist like him in a brainless and cool novel.

Emmm...I'm really not in a good condition recently. I have a headache.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 225 So I’m a tool again, right?

Brother Luo Yu has a lot of red lines.

Hearing about his deeds, Xu Shi narrowed his eyes.

Originally, he hadn't paid much attention to it, and he never expected that the other party actually had some connection with the little queen - logically speaking, with the Templars' butt being so crooked, how could they still be called a neutral organization?

If we really follow the script, it should be that after he becomes more successful, he will represent the Templars and the royal family, kill Cheng Gujian with the last blow, and capture the heart of the beautiful Dongfang Xiao while exploding gold coins...

But he was too lazy to think about it in detail. It was not worth wasting brain cells on such things.

Instead, it was the handsome boy Lu Baiyan next to him that made Xu Shi more interested.

It's not because of anything else, it's simply because this guy looks like a pervert - he didn't take any action when Luo Yu lost control before, and he only came out to play the good guy when he saw the situation was out of control.

In terms of status, although they are both Silver Knights, his say is obviously higher than Luo Yu. Just a few words from him can make Luo Yu dare not even breathe.

It is obviously a relationship between a superior and a subordinate - and this guy may not really be on Luo Yu's side, otherwise, he would never appear to be persuading him but actually say something like "I haven't heard you talk about your sister before". Isn't this adding fuel to the fire?

And these words did have some effect. At least Xu Shi noticed that the expressions on the faces of the sisters Feng and Ling behind him became even uglier.

Well, Ning is also a fun-loving person?

"Anyway, we were wrong in this matter. I hope Brother Chen can forgive us."

Le Ziren was apologizing to Butler Chen, "Is this ok?"

"What's the point of you telling me?"

Butler Chen had a blank expression on his face. "You offended Mr. Xu, so he should be the one to apologize."

"Yes."

Lu Baiyan pretended to be surprised and looked at Xu Shi quickly, "Emissary Xu, are you willing to forgive my mistakes?"

"It's just a little friction, why should I keep harping on it?"

Xu Shi spread his hands and said, "But our residence has been messed up like this, there must be an explanation, right?"

"This is simple, leave it to me."

Lu Baiyan patted his chest, then closed his eyes and clasped his hands together.

In an instant, water-wave-like waves of light were seen spreading out from his body, and the mess that had passed by was instantly restored to its original state.

"This is?"

Xia Wuyou raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.

"This guy's ability is 'turning back time'."

Butler Chen explained for him, "But it only applies to inanimate objects. It can restore them to the state they were in half an hour ago at most."

Xu Shi blinked his eyes.

Interesting, a special skill for cleaning the floor?

This guy even squinted his eyes... Oh my god, and you still say you are not a fun person?

"It's just a trivial skill. I'm just a handyman."

After Lu Baiyan finished washing the floor, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Are you satisfied, Envoy Xu? As for the rest, I've already said it... We can talk about it slowly when you come to the Vatican?"

That's enough. Who are you pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger for? If you are just a handyman, how can you get to the fourth place? Xu Shi secretly complained. Even if it can't work on living things, his ability still has a lot of room for operation.

And judging by the level of proficiency, it’s at least A+, maybe even S... There is so little to be seen just in renovating a house.

The Vatican is indeed full of hidden talents... Well, I have to visit them this time.

Now that he had an idea in mind, Xu Shi didn't want to dwell on anything anymore.

Even if there was, it wouldn't be now, so after a few pleasantries, he prepared to go back.

However, some people were blind. Just as the groups were about to separate, Luo Yu suddenly spoke again, calling out to the two sisters Feng and Ling behind him, "You..."

"..."

Looking at his reluctant look, Xu Shi was completely speechless.

It's endless, right?

"Xiao Feng, Xiao Ling."

Xu Shi thought about it and simply pushed the two sisters in front of him. "I am a very open-minded person and will not do anything that goes against other people's wishes... If you want to go to your brother Luo Yu's place, that's great too. It's up to you guys."

"I……"

Pan Feng lowered his eyes, shook his head without much thought, turned around and went straight back to the inn.

She was just straightforward, not stupid, and she had been feeling a little uncomfortable since earlier today.

Although she easily killed the Royal Court Knight, she also realized a problem.

Over all these years, Brother Luo Yu has never taught me anything seriously, right?

At least the little girl was very sure that if she only used the sword moves he taught her, she would be the one turning into a corpse today.

On the contrary, the master has been teaching him everything he knows since he accepted me as his apprentice.

It's hard to say whether she is unreserved or not, but there is no doubt that her strength has improved by leaps and bounds. This comparison can explain a lot of problems. How long has she known Xu Shi and his group? Right?

Plus, she just heard that Luo Yu hadn't even mentioned her in front of other people... Why was that? Was it because he felt it was hard to talk about his identity as a Yinsong Islander, or was it hard for him to talk about his sister who was born on Yinsong Island?

Miss Xiao Feng did not pursue whether Lu Baiyan's words were true or false, but her mood was visibly disappointed.

Especially when she thought of the scene today when her master publicized himself in front of the royal family, she felt really uncomfortable. When she looked at Luo Yu, she subconsciously felt a little resistant.

How could I go to his side?

"Brother Luo Yu, you go back first."

Instead, Pan Ling, who was usually taciturn, said a few more words at this moment, "My father told us before we came out that we should follow the master and his wife and let them take care of me and my sister... We will come to see you when we have time."

She still gave Luo Yu some face, but everyone knew that these words, which seemed to be a turn for the better, were actually just perfunctory.

"Do you still need me to treat you to a midnight snack?"

Xu Shi spread his hands and looked at Luo Yu with interest.

Originally, he had no intention of pursuing the matter, but you continued to beg for mercy and make yourself miserable. So he would not tolerate it and would simply tear off the last bit of your fig leaf.

"..."

Facing Xu Shi's harsh words and looking at the reactions of the two sisters Feng and Ling, Luo Yu's expression changed again and again, and finally he could only turn around and leave without saying a word.

I saw him gritting his teeth and clenching his fists. I didn't know how humiliated he felt.

"Master, I..."

Watching Luo Yu disappear from her sight, Pan Ling tugged at Xu Shi's clothes with a troubled look on her face, disappointment written all over her face, and she seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.

"Don't look so constipated. It's not a bad thing to talk about some things, right?"
