Chapter 140 Shocked Aristocrats
"Luo Qiu, where did you go just now?"
When Luo Qiu just returned to the 'Ocean Blue Court', Meng Li pounced on him and hugged him directly around his waist, sniffing back and forth at Luo Qiu's clothes with his delicate and beautiful little nose.
"It doesn't smell like a woman." Meng Li seemed relieved.
"Why do I smell like a woman?" Luo Qiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Letilia said that Luo Qiu seemed to like going to places like brothels to relax himself." Meng Li said seriously.
"Pfft, cough cough." Luo Qiu choked and glared at Letilia, who was standing beside him with an embarrassed look on her face. He said unhappily, "Do you know that it is not ladylike to speak ill of others behind their backs?"
Letilia didn't expect Meng Li to take her joke seriously and check it so seriously. She was a little embarrassed at first, but when she saw Luo Qiu's look, she got angry and said immediately: "I'm not wrong. I saw you looking for it in a place like Rose Lowe with my own eyes."
The only time that his dark history was exposed by Letilia, facing Meng Li's suspicious gaze, Luo Qiu coughed dryly and said with a stiff upper lip: "I didn't take the initiative to look for him that time, it was just a coincidence."
Luo Qiu's voice gradually became softer. After all, he had originally planned not to refuse when the older sister approached him.
"Do you think I will believe it?" Letilia looked at Luo Qiu with contempt.
She didn't believe that Luo Qiu just happened to walk to the "Men's Homecoming" and happened to be held by the arm of a street prostitute.
Although it was indeed a coincidence, Luo Qiu was also speechless and couldn't say anything. He couldn't tell them that he had just traveled through time and accidentally wandered into that kind of place.
No one would believe this.
"Luo Qiu, if you need anything in the future, just come to me. Don't go to those unclean places."
It was hard to imagine that such a beautiful girl would say such words. Luo Qiu and Letilia were stunned by Meng Li's naked words. After a while, Luo Qiu reluctantly nodded and said, "I know."
Hearing Luo Qiu agree, Meng Li finally smiled, his charm revealed in an instant, so stunning.
"Then let's do it tonight."
"no!"
Xia jumped out of nowhere, put some distance between Meng Li and Luo Qiu, and said angrily: "Don't you have any shame for saying these things in broad daylight?"
"This is between me and Luo Qiu."
"That's not OK!"
"Don't push your luck, stingy girl."
As if he had escaped a disaster, Luo Qiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Youni came out in a chef's uniform, carrying a large pot of steaming soup. With a gentle smile on her face, she said, "Dinner is ready, dinner is ready."
"It smells so good!"
The rich aroma wafted over, and even Xia and Mengli temporarily forgot about the quarrel.
"Wow, what is this? It smells so good?" Xia had an intoxicated expression on his face.
"It's just an ordinary stew." Everyone's exaggerated performance made Yuni a little embarrassed, and her little face turned red.
"Youni, you must be a genius in cooking." Luo Qiu said with certainty. "Thank you." Youni's face turned even redder.
"Youni, let me help you carry it." Mengli snatched the bowl full of soup from Youni's hand.
"Ah, Mengli, be careful of the heat, wear gloves." Before Younie could finish her words, she covered her mouth and let out a scream.
Meng Li seemed to be unable to feel the temperature of the boiling hot soup base. He held it in both hands and walked to the dining table and put it down.
"Sister Mengli, you are so awesome."
"Hehe, it's okay." Meng Li blinked at her.
In a manor in the inner city of the imperial capital, several men dressed in expensive clothes were sitting around a long table, arguing about something.
"I said at the beginning that we shouldn't provoke that adventurer. We have already spent a lot of money to hire the people from Black Heaven to take action. There is no need to waste other resources. Now, even Benxi has been killed by them."
"Count Lei An, calm down. Now is not the time to blame anyone. We should discuss the next countermeasures."
The young man called Earl Lei An snorted coldly and said, "If it weren't for you guys meddling in other people's business, we wouldn't be in this predicament at all."
"It's meaningless to say this now." An older noble said, "Since the other party killed Marquis Bensi, it means that he has chosen to stand on the side of Clarence VI and is our enemy."
"That's right, this enemy was created by your own hands because of your ignorance." Earl Lei An sneered.
"That Benxi guy is also a waste. He failed to win over and was killed without a word. Even his base was destroyed. It was a waste for the Mercedis family to run the business for so long."
"Leian, have you heard about the magic of that giant black tree?" asked a bald nobleman.
When the magic of the giant black tree was mentioned, Earl Lei An restrained his arrogant attitude, his face became a little solemn, and he said: "I have practiced at the Imperial School of Magic for four years, and I have never heard of any magic that can summon a giant black tree."
Even Lei An, the top graduate of the Imperial Magic Academy last year, had never heard of this magic, which made the other nobles look at each other in bewilderment.
"There is no record of it in the Imperial School of Magic? Could it be..." A nobleman asked dryly, "Great Magic?"
Great magic is absolutely superior to advanced magic, and is the strongest magic that humans can use. Only a few exceptional magicians among humans can use it.
Even the huge Kendenia Empire could not find such a magician.
"Great magic?" Count Lei An's face was a little ugly. He said slowly: "I suspect that this magic may be more than just great magic."
"Impossible!" As soon as Count Lei An finished speaking, there was an immediate rebuttal. The bald nobleman blew his beard and glared, saying, "Are you saying that it is domain-level magic? It is impossible for a single person to cast such magic. This is common sense!"
That's right, if you want to use domain-level magic, you must organize a large-scale magic ritual, and the success rate is very low. There have not been many records of domain-level magic from ancient times to the present.
Count Lei An frowned, but did not argue this time. As an outstanding graduate of the Imperial Magic Academy, he knew much more about magic than the bald nobleman, and naturally knew these common sense. However, when he thought of the images recorded by several informants through the "Image Appendix", he felt a palpitation even now. Just seeing the projected images could affect people's spirit. Lei An could hardly imagine what the scene would be like when he saw the black giant tree magic with his own eyes.
Is such magic really just big magic?
Lei An found it difficult to make a judgment for a moment.
