Chapter 472 Little Fox
Leng Yun looked at the young girl in front of him and found that she was not very old, with delicate skin and tender flesh, and was obviously different from the people here.
Although she was wearing clothes that matched the style of the place, it was obvious that it was a disguise.
Leng Yun was certain that the girl was a young lady from a wealthy family who had run away to play while her family wasn't looking.
"Where?" Leng Yun asked, half believing and half doubting.
"The City of Illusions!" the little girl said, enunciating each word clearly.
Upon hearing this name, the surrounding noise seemed to suddenly quiet down.
Those who had been looking at Leng Yun now all turned in different directions, but their ears were all perked up.
Leng Yun was puzzled. It seemed that Youhuan City was a taboo subject here, and no one dared to mention it.
Even the waiter was so frightened that his face turned pale.
"What kind of place is Youhuan City?" Leng Yun asked casually.
The little girl leaned closer to Leng Yun and deliberately lowered her voice, saying, "That's the most famous ghost town in this area. I heard it hides the best treasures!"
"A ghost town?" Leng Yun smiled, clearly not believing it.
"It's true! We hear ghostly cries every night, and a terrifying blue light also appears in the direction of Youhuan City at night!" the waiter said, his face pale.
"Where is Youhuan City? Haven't you gone to investigate it?" Leng Yun asked.
"No one who goes in ever comes out again, and nobody knows where the Illusionary City is. It just appears in different locations every night, like a wandering ghost!" the shopkeeper said tremblingly.
These few words even sent a chill down Leng Yun's spine; no wonder the people here turn pale at the mere mention of them.
"Aren't you afraid?" Leng Yun asked, looking at the girl in front of him after hearing this.
The little girl snorted: "Of course I'm not afraid. Are you going or not?"
"I'll go!" Leng Yun nodded. He knew that such a mysterious place must contain some treasure, and this was a great opportunity for him to level up.
"Wait, Lord Wansheng said he would come to deal with that place in the next couple of days," the waiter suddenly said.
"Hmph! So what if it's Marquis Wansheng? Does it mean that just because he's handling it, no one else is allowed to enter?" The little girl said with a look of disdain.
Seeing that the little girl seemed to disrespect Wansheng Hou, the people around her were even a little angry.
"Of course, since Lord Wansheng wants to enter that place, all treasure hunters should give way."
"That's right. Apart from Lord Wansheng, anyone else going in would just be throwing their lives away."
"That's right, I advise you not to cause trouble for Lord Wansheng!"
Everyone chimed in with their own opinions, as if criticizing the young girl for delaying Lord Wansheng's business.
The little girl stomped her foot angrily: "Hmph, let's go."
As she spoke, she pulled Leng Yun along, and the two walked onto the street next to them.
"Hmph, Marquis of Ten Thousand Victories, Marquis of Ten Thousand Victories, I hear about Marquis of Ten Thousand Victories everywhere!" the little girl said angrily.
"Foreign invasion? Go find Marquis Wansheng! Monster rampage? Go find Marquis Wansheng! Hunt down fugitives? Go find Marquis Wansheng! I wonder why women don't go to Marquis Wansheng when they're giving birth!" The little girl pouted and said angrily.
Leng Yun found it amusing; this little girl was truly interesting: "How much money does this Marquis Wansheng owe you? Why do you hate him so much?"
The girl snorted: "He's my brother-in-law, and he's engaged to my sister."
Leng Yun was speechless, never expecting that there was such a relationship between them.
However, judging from the reputation of Marquis Wansheng, this girl's family is no ordinary family either, and they are able to be engaged to Marquis Wansheng.
"By the way, I still don't know your name," Leng Yun asked.
"My name is Xiaoli," the little girl replied cheerfully.
"Little Fox, who exactly is this Marquis Wansheng, and why do people revere him so much?" Leng Yun asked.
"Hmph, he is a great hero of the entire Yongxia Kingdom, and also the strongest person in Yongxia Kingdom. He has reached the third level of the Guangwu Realm. In the past war between the three demons, he almost destroyed the entire Yongxia Kingdom. It was because of Marquis Wansheng that the three demons were defeated. Then, in the two Xia Hai Wars, Marquis Wansheng led the troops and won both times." Xiao Li recounted the events of Yongxia Kingdom one by one like history.
"And back when the emperor was kidnapped, it was Marquis Wansheng who rescued him," Xiao Li said.
Leng Yun could see that even Xiao Li had to admit that Wan Shenghou's deeds were indeed worthy of admiration.
"And—" Xiao Li continued, "Marquis Wansheng is very young this year, only 30 years old!"
"To achieve so much at such a young age, he really is a genius," Leng Yun remarked.
Aside from the system's assistance, most people who can reach the Martial Realm are around 50 years old, and even then, it has to be a genius.
Therefore, it is conceivable that Wan Shenghou, at such a young age, was able to reach such a level, which shows that he was no ordinary genius.
"And he's also an alchemist," Little Fox said, kicking away a stone at her feet.
Leng Yun was speechless. No wonder this Marquis of Ten Thousand Victories was so respected. He never expected his achievements to be so profound.
Leng Yun even suspected that this Marquis of Wansheng might also possess a system.
"But why do you seem to dislike him?" Xiao Li asked.
"I don't like him. He's a hypocrite, but my sister and father are fooled by him and like him a lot." Little Fox snorted.
Leng Yun smiled and didn't press the matter further. Judging from Xiao Li's age, she was only a teenager and had the temperament of a child.
"By the way, we're going to Youhuan City tonight. You'd better stick close to me then, I don't have the energy to protect you all the time," Xiao Li said.
"You'll protect me?" Leng Yun asked with a smile.
"Of course, judging from your appearance, you're so thin and weak." Little Fox looked at me with disdain. "But I've already reached the ninth level of the Spirit Martial Realm!"
Leng Yun nodded: "Impressive, impressive."
He was surprised. Could it be that everyone in Yongxia Kingdom was such a genius? At Xiao Li's age, being able to cultivate to the 9th level of the Spirit Martial Realm was probably considered a top-notch genius, even more so than that Marquis Wansheng!
"By the way, Marquis Wansheng will also be entering Youhuan City tonight. We must defeat the monsters in Youhuan City before him and make him lose face!" Little Tanuki said seriously.
Leng Yun gave a wry smile: "Since you're so capable, Miss, why did you ask me to accompany you?"
Little Fox blushed: "I—I'm afraid of ghosts!"
