As the two of them were in the same room and under the protection of the armor, Liu Chi became bolder and slowly walked towards the two of them.
Soon, Liu Chi walked through the open door and into a small living room with luxurious decoration, while the father and daughter were lying on the sofa.
Just as Liu Chi wanted to listen to the conversation between the two, Theresa looked at the door vigilantly.
The accidental eye contact with Theresa made Liu Chi wonder if he had been discovered, but there was no one behind him in the area.
"Hey! Guy by the door, now that you're here, why are you hiding?"
Theresa just felt someone's eyes on her at the door, so she called out casually.
At this moment, it was a complete test of the two people's psychological quality. After hearing Theresa's shout, Liu Chi was sure that he had been discovered.
Just when Liu Chi was about to cancel his invisibility, Lloyd's voice rang out from the side.
"Aren't you too alert? There is no way for an outsider to enter this manor."
Theresa glanced at the door and looked at Lloyd.
"I just felt like there was a pair of eyes looking at me at the door. Maybe I was too tired and too sensitive during this period."
After hearing his daughter say this, Lloyd burst into laughter.
"I've already told you to stay home and let me send someone to do the work. Isn't it better to enjoy your life? Why do you have to make yourself so tired?"
Theresa glared at Lloyd with a somewhat dissatisfied tone.
"Lloyd, shut up! That's how you killed my mother. Don't dominate my life, or I'll make sure you die a miserable death. I won't kill you because I still recognize you as my father."
After hearing this, Lloyd had no choice but to shut up and put on a smile to please Theresa.
"That kid named Liu Chi, are you going to let him go?"
Theresa asked, her eyes fixed entirely on the ruby on the table in front of her.
"Now we have no choice but to let him go? He doesn't know the whereabouts of the sword. If we continue to force him like this, I'm afraid Janet will cause trouble for me."
Theresa was a little dissatisfied and said,
"Isn't she your sister? What are you afraid of?"
"Explicit!"
"That's my sister too!"
Lloyd sighed and shook his head. He was a little speechless. Janet's superficial kindness to him was just for the sake of benefit. There was no so-called family affection between the two of them. But Theresa didn't think so.
"In short, we can't pursue Liu Chi any further. Although he has been expelled from the Mu family, he is not a member of the Mu family, but he is also a dog of the Mu family. We can't afford to offend him."
After hearing what Lloyd said, Theresa put her chin in her hand and began to think, her eyes fixed on the ruby on the table.
After a long time, he finally spoke,
"I should have listened to you earlier and become his woman. After gaining his trust, I could try to find out the information about the sword."
"Don't lose heart. That kid Liu Chi will definitely be looking for the Seven Star Keys in secret. I just don't know how many he has collected now. He disappeared for two months without any news. I thought he died accidentally, otherwise the people below wouldn't dare to do anything to those women."
Lloyd sighed.
"Alas! That guy is not to be trifled with. The entire Osprey Empire was defeated by him. However, he seemed to be deliberately hiding his strength. If we attacked him that night, we might not be able to come back."
Theresa nodded slightly, raised her head, looked at the gemstone chandelier above, and quickly turned her eyes around before speaking.
"He collected the Seven Star Keys in order to release the Black Dragon? Why did he want to release the Black Dragon? Is the information given by the Magic Tower reliable?"
Lloyd shook his head.
"I heard that the seven keys can remove the seal, right? Then wouldn't that kid become a sinner of the world?"
"But by that time, we will definitely be the first to know, right? The place where the black dragon is sealed is very close to us."
After hearing this useful information, Liu Chi also realized that the two people in front of him must know the location of the Black Dragon Seal, but their meaning was full of uncertainty. Because of the Dark Night Star Pupil, Liu Chi didn't know whether the two would still have any ideas about him.
Liu Chi stood there and listened to the two of them talking about themselves, the situation in the city, and then about family matters. Only after the two of them finished talking and left did Liu Chi think about leaving.
As Liu Chi used molecular teleportation to leave, Theresa outside felt something strange again and walked back to the room with a frown.
"Could it be that there really is someone?"
After a brief thought, a ball of fire rose in Theresa's hand. She threw the fire out, and the whole room suddenly burned violently. Because there was nothing to burn, only some paper products and cloth were burned in the whole room. The original gems looked even more gorgeous under the burning flames.
Lloyd heard the noise and came over with a smile.
"No way, even if someone is here, you can't do this, but those broken sofas really need to be replaced."
"Forget it, as long as you like it."
After saying this, Lloyd turned around and prepared to leave, but Theresa called him from behind.
"My suspicion just now was correct. There was indeed someone in the room, but he has already left. This means that our conversation was heard in its entirety."
Through large-scale burning, Theresa only confirmed one fact, that is, the oxygen content in the room was low, which was the oxygen consumption of three people. Although this amount would be restored by the replenishment of external air in a short time, she still grasped this only fact.
"Who is that?"
Lloyd paused, as if waiting for an answer.
"Right now, I'm afraid the only person who is interested in us is Liu Chi. He came here probably to ask for something. We can seize this opportunity."
Theresa walked out of the door and headed in the opposite direction of Lloyd.
"Lloyd, go and make the arrangements. Liu Chi might come to visit us during this period. Be polite to him when the time comes. He is one of us now. After all, he has overheard so many of our secrets."
"I'm happy to hear you say that. Maybe I can have a son-in-law like this! Then I can wake up with a smile in my sleep."
Soon the two separated, and Theresa returned to her boudoir and began to predict what would happen next time she met Liu Chi.
Lloyd immediately found someone to clean the room and tidy up the entire manor.
Liu Chi returned to the fortress, thought about it for a while, and finally decided to visit in person.
In Liu Chi's opinion, the answer is right in front of him. He wants to become stronger so much that he doesn't want to delay for a moment. If he gives up this method, it will become a knot in his heart.
That afternoon, after two o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Chi appeared in front of the manor on time.
"I'm looking for the city lord."
Liu Chi looked at the guard who was much taller than him and said it in a low voice.
The guard asked back,
"What? Who are you?"
"I'm Liuchi."
The guard who had been greeted earlier quickly looked at Liu Chi and called out to his companion beside him,
"Go and report it."
Although they already knew the person coming was Liu Chi, they still followed the instructions and pretended to report.
The guard who had just left was just pacing back and forth on the lawn at the back to kill time, pretending to be going to report.
However, Liu Chi sensed all of this, and he was now certain that the two of them already knew that he was eavesdropping.
After waiting for a while, the guard who was pacing behind ran back and nodded to his companions.
"Come in! The city lord is waiting at the mansion."
After entering, Liu Chi walked slowly towards the small castle.
Sure enough, appreciating something openly is much better than peeking at it secretly.
The original journey was forcibly extended several times by Liu Chi. Every time he arrived at a place, he would stop to appreciate it, just like a mountain man coming to the city, full of curiosity about everything.
As a result, the two people in the small castle became anxiously waiting. In their opinion, Liu Chi's action was to deliberately delay time.
Finally, Liu Chi slowly walked to the gate of the small castle.
After carefully observing the door, Liu Chi stretched out his hand and knocked on it gently.
After this trip, Liu Chi was completely enlightened. The luxury of this manor has even "armed" the small stones on the road. Not only are there rare plants planted there, but even the scattered gravel is valuable magic stones and gems.
Theresa opened the door impatiently, but when she saw Liu Chi, she still smiled.
"Mr. Liu Chi, how come you have the grace to visit my humble abode?"
