It's the beauty that brings disaster. I'm also desperate.

I feel more satisfied and happy about it.

It was precisely because she was so satisfied and liked him so much that she didn't know what to say to Fang Shengsheng, how to show her charm to please her and even make her be fascinated by herself.

With this worry, Lu Man could no longer express herself freely as before, but became restrained and nervous...

So after glancing at Xia Li, she continued to close her eyes and rest.

Maintaining the reserve of a Yin general.

--hateful!

——Manman was actually moved!

Xiang Yi was secretly annoyed.

Being able to become the most beautiful courtesan in a brothel and walk among the rich and powerful without losing her chastity, her emotional intelligence is naturally high. It is easy to see the difference between Lu Man this time and in previous years...

Also.

Even when she first stepped out of Yunyin, Lu Man was deeply amazed, and she was not so restrained when they formally met later.

In fact, she has served Lu Man for many years.

The concubine did everything she was supposed to do, except being kissed by the man.

She knew that there was always someone living in Lu Man's heart, and no matter whether it was her or Cheng Qian, it was difficult to really get into that heart.

therefore......

She had never experienced the soft, delicate and fragrant touch that had just passed by her. In a trance, she thought of Fang Shengsheng's eyes, which were like peach blossoms with a smile and a hint of teasing.

——No, no!

——What's so wonderful about it? I was clearly attacked by her. And Fang Shengsheng's eyes are so small, they are not the beautiful peach blossom eyes.

I must have been looking too closely just now.

hallucinations!

Absolute illusion!

Xiang Yi bit her lip, and it took her a while to calm down her complicated emotions.

At this time, she thought Fang Shengsheng must be laughing at her, and might even be ridiculed if they looked at each other. But when she looked over, she found that she had lifted a corner of the car curtain and was looking at the scenery outside...

original.

When the carriage passed by here, cheers suddenly rang out one after another.

Lu Man and Xiang Yi were already used to it, but Xia Li was curious, so he lifted the curtain and looked over.

"This bastard is really bold."

Seeing this, Xiang Yi was also somewhat impressed.

Logically speaking... after being chosen by Lord Yin to accompany him into the carriage, they should have the consciousness of a subordinate or a waiter, sitting there obediently and waiting for his orders.

The ghosts of the past, including herself, were all like this...

Fang Shengsheng, however, looked very contented, as if she was the master and could do whatever she wanted without any scruples.

"but......"

"Fang Shengsheng's facial features are extremely ordinary, but her face shape is quite beautiful."

A standard oval face, with cherry lips and a beautiful nose, she would be considered a beauty at best. Unfortunately, her mouth is too big, and her nose is straight but has poor lines. Overall, she is only about 40 points, not to mention compared to her and Cheng Qian, even many maids in the mansion can't compare.

——I wonder what Manman sees in her?

"That is the training ground. All my subordinates can enter and challenge once every thirty days."

"The winner will be crowned, the loser will eat dust."

Just as Xiang Yi was secretly observing and carefully pondering, Lu Man's voice suddenly sounded in the carriage.

This voice was much gentler than usual, which made Xiang Yi feel a little sad...

The other party spoke so gently, and only when she served him the best. And Fang Shengsheng actually got it for no reason, which made her so envious... It made her so angry!

"Training ground?"

When Xia Li heard Lu Man's words, he did not turn around, but still stared at the building.

But that building was something she had never seen before.

You have to know that this is Niou Castle. Although the streets and markets in the city have changed a lot, the large buildings and the general distribution pattern are not much different from her memory.

Niou Castle.

A Niwang Main Street runs through the north and south city gates, dividing the city into east and west with this as the central axis!

East City is the inner city area, while West City covers a larger area and is the outer city area.

The land of Yunyin is a new building dug after the invasion of the Yin soldiers. It is located in the southwest area of ​​the city, that is, the southern part of the outer city. The southern part was formerly known as the suburbs and is the most remote part of Renwang City. Except for a few villas and mansions built by the rich and powerful, most of it is farmland.

After Xia Li came out of Yunyin, he immediately determined the location of Pit No. 3 from the few surviving mansions...

It is the suburb of the former outer city.

So she was not surprised at all when she got on the carriage and saw it heading east. After all, the inner city was where big families and dignitaries lived, and as one of the Four Yin Generals, Lu Man must live there.

However, the "training ground" mentioned by Lu Man did surprise her.

It was a building that was a bit exaggerated in size. Its style was very different from what he had seen and heard in Tushan Kingdom. It was more similar to the ancient Roman Colosseum in Xia Li's memory... Of course, it was not as grand and was much shorter.

"Yes, the training ground."

"We don't kill those human warriors who are strong after we capture them. Instead, we put them in the training ground to hone and train the soldiers. The stronger the captured warriors are, the better the training effect will be."

When mentioning this, there was a hint of pride in Lu Man's brows.

The four Yin Generals can all use this training ground, but the captured human warriors cannot be shared.

Because those warriors are luxury consumables, the closer they are to the top three grades, the rarer they are. The Yin soldiers who win in the training ground will definitely kill or even torture the human warriors... and if they fail, they will also be killed by the warriors.

and so.

High-quality warriors are very valuable, and are the best stuff for training elite soldiers!

For such a precious item, the Four Yin Generals will naturally have their own opinions. Whoever captures the warrior will own it, and this is unconditional.

And Lu Man is very lucky...

In a battle not long ago, two first-rank warriors were captured, and they were sisters!

This made her inventory of high-quality warriors surpass Zhang Xing, who was originally ranked first, and she gained a lot of face. Therefore, she took the opportunity to show off in front of Fang Shengsheng.

Chapter 20 You don’t look smart, but you are actually stupid

——Using human warriors as commodities?

——Like the beasts in the ancient Roman Colosseum.

Xia Li was such a smart person that he immediately understood what Lu Man meant.

He also understood the other party's subtext from the other party's slightly proud tone, and for the first time realized the current situation of human warriors... After being captured, they were reduced to "beasts" trained by the ghosts.

Sad, sigh.

"Your Excellency is so amazing."

His heart was heavy, but Xia Li's face did not show any real emotion.

When Lu Man 'inadvertently' mentioned that he had 19 third-grade warrior slaves, 7 second-grade warrior slaves, and 3 first-grade warrior slaves in the training ground.

Even more praised...

Her expression didn't change much, which was consistent with the character she showed when she first met Lu Man. But there was a little surprise in her eyes, and a little imperceptible admiration.

Seeing Xia Li like this, Lu Man felt as happy as if she had eaten a big sweet date.

Unfortunately.

She could never have imagined that Xia Li was different from all the ghosts.

He does not have the kind of disgust that ghosts have towards living people. Instead, he feels that he is still a human being.

So...when Lu Manzhi was interested in showing off the captured warriors, she would never admire them, but would be deeply wary of them.

A guy who wants to enslave humanity and treat our warriors as training tools.

No matter how much you try to please her, even if she is as beautiful as Hua Shuangxue, she will not have the slightest affection for him.

——A ghost?

While answering Lu Man's question, the girl was thinking secretly.

——I don't know why, but I might be the only ghost in the world who doesn't hate the living. Am I a mutant, or is there something really strange about my body?

"Sir! Lord Lu Man——!"

"The city lord urgently summons you, please go there as soon as possible."

Just as Xia Li was thinking to himself, a hurried sound of horse hooves came closer and closer.

At the same time, the visitor stated his purpose.

Lu Man frowned slightly when she heard this. She had originally planned to take Fang Shengsheng back home, and then personally welcome her, bathe her, and change her clothes, so that they could spend a wonderful time together tonight...

She hadn't been this excited for a long time. She had been looking forward to it since she got on the carriage and smelled the other person's delicate and elegant body fragrance. That was why she became nervous and pretended to close her eyes to rest.

"An urgent call from the city lord?"

"What happened?"

After getting off the carriage, Lu Man asked about the summons with a hint of displeasure.

"Reporting to the Lord, it is related to the Five Cities of the Ghost Realm."

"hiss......"

Hearing this term, Lu Man immediately suppressed the irritation in her heart. Although she was angry about disturbing her spring night, the matters related to the five cities in the ghost domain were by no means trivial.

She immediately put aside her personal feelings and looked solemn and serious.

"You go back home first."

"Oh, right, clean up Taoyuan and let Lu Sheng stay there. Don't be negligent!"

After giving these two instructions, Lu Man hurried to the City Lord's Mansion, leaving behind only Xiang Yi, Xia Li, and a team of palace guards to escort the carriage.

"call--."

Lu Man suddenly left for something urgent, and Shengsheng's heart finally relaxed.

She secretly let out a long sigh.

She had no other choice but to reveal her true face and seduce Lü Man. If there were any other methods, she would not have taken such a risk... In addition, Lü Man fell into the beauty trap as she expected, and survived the crisis of having the soul mark on her face.

In fact.

The side effects of the beauty trap have already begun.

If the city lord hadn't called her urgently just now, she would probably have been unable to escape Lu Man's clutches tonight. She would definitely be eaten, Sheng Sheng knew it clearly from the obscure but resolute possession in her eyes.

Honestly speaking...

Xia Li definitely looked down on Lu Man, and didn't want to devote himself to her.

But this is better than having a brand on her face, and it will last until she is promoted to Yin General. She cares more about her appearance than her chastity.

after all.

As long as it is beautiful to a certain extent, even if it is not pure, it will definitely be forgiven!

When the time comes, I will cry and wipe my tears and act pitiful...

This is easier than breathing.

——Huh? Wait!

Shengsheng suddenly thought of the arrangements Lu Man made before she left.

——Taoyuan?

——I didn’t hear it wrongly, it couldn’t be…

An extremely strange emotion arose in his heart, making Xia Li feel at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
