Earl Hall's Manor.
According to imperial regulations, the area of an earl's manor cannot exceed that of a duke's, nor can the number of castles.
Therefore, Earl Hall's Manor has only one castle, named Peach Blossom Castle. Its architectural style is entirely fairytale-like, instantly reminding Li En of Disneyland, only this castle is more ancient and luxurious.
The castle is surrounded by trees, creating a green space in the expensive King's District. Arriving here by carriage feels like entering a suburban forest, further demonstrating the Earl's wealth. Even the royal palace cannot achieve this. Peach Blossom Castle seems to have leaped from an old fairytale book, quietly nestled in the lush forest with its unique charm.
The castle's tall towers soar into the sky, with the Hall family banner fluttering in the breeze atop the spires.
Along the stone path leading to the castle gate, neatly trimmed rose hedges bloom, releasing a fragrant scent.
Passing through the heavy doors reveals a spacious courtyard, with a lively fountain sculpture in the center, its water droplets shimmering with silver light under the moonlight. On the stone benches beside it, elegantly dressed maids often rest and chat.
Although carriages are unnecessary within the castle, Li En, led by Alexander and Cruz, still walked for 20 minutes from the main gate to the main building.
This was Li En's first visit, and if he weren't holding Alexander, he would truly be arriving empty-handed.
If he were here to propose marriage, the Earl's family would likely kick him out immediately.
It would be akin to coercion by child.
Fortunately, that was not his purpose.
Moreover, the idle Milian had also followed along, constantly complaining about the extravagance of the empire's upper class.
Even Milian, who considered herself worldly, had only seen such a magnificent castle once.
Well-dressed servants led Li En and Alexander to the castle's reception hall.
The pure gold doors, sculpted with intricate patterns, slowly opened, revealing the heavy scent of wood and the faint sound of string music in the distance.
On the dome, delicate murals, illuminated by candlelight, vividly depicted the Hall family's ancestors in battle. The glittering chandeliers resembled jewels on a crown, emitting a warm and elegant light.
The intricately carved marble fireplace flickered with flames, casting warm yellow light and shadows, complementing the flowers in the gold-trimmed vases nearby, creating a cozy and comfortable atmosphere.
In the center of the wide room, a long mahogany conference table stood quietly, adorned with exquisite porcelain and silver tableware, reflecting a faint silver glow.
Along the walls, long sofas were covered in delicate velvet, their ornate patterns faintly visible in the candlelight.
Through the tall windows, the outside garden could be seen, with the afterglow of the setting sun casting a golden hue on the neatly trimmed hedges, as if freezing the scene into an eternal twilight.
Inside the reception hall, the handsome middle-aged Earl was already waiting.
Dorothy sat beside Earl Hall, her expression slightly worried.
Seeing Dorothy, the lively Alexander broke free from his father's embrace and ran to her, throwing himself into her arms.
"Mommy."
"Good boy, Alexander."
The flame demon Cruz followed closely behind Dorothy, his flames flickering intermittently.
Li En slowly walked to Earl Hall, removed his hat, bowed slightly, and offered his greetings.
"Uncle Hall, you were looking for me."
"Sit."
Earl Hall said, his gaze falling on Milian beside Li En.
Li En casually said, "An ignorant subordinate."
Earl Hall knew that she was probably a witch from the Guardian Bureau, but he didn't recognize all the witches from the Bureau.
As for the Time Witch who was about to be executed, Earl Hall was completely unaware.
In fact, 90% of the witches' executions were not made public. Only those famous witches who enjoyed honorable deaths would be watched by the whole city.
Most were handled internally by the Guardian Bureau and the Holy See.
Earl Hall didn't want to interfere in the Guardian Bureau's affairs. He already possessed the power of the Navy's Supreme Commander. Meddling in the Guardian Bureau would arouse Augustus's suspicion.
That was also why Dorothy had always been unwilling to accept the position of Deputy Director of the Guardian Bureau.
Augustus wanted to use this to separate Dorothy from the Hall family and bring her to his side,
He even wanted Dorothy to be his queen.
Although Earl Hall had never supported Augustus's pursuit of Dorothy, Augustus was the Emperor.
If he forcibly ordered Dorothy to become his queen, the Hall family, who had sworn eternal allegiance to the Frank family, could not resist.
Earl Hall had also signed a blood contract. If this happened, he might go against his will and push his daughter into the fire.
But he was unwilling to do so.
And although Dorothy was a legendary witch, with her strength, she could completely leave this country and escape to other parts of the continent.
But the Hall family was in the hands of the Frank family. Could Dorothy really leave everything behind?
The answer was no.
Earl Hall knew that his daughter was a very sentimental person.
She could not abandon her family.
As for resistance, as long as Dorothy Hall still had the blood of the Hall family, she could not resist the Frank family. This was the influence of the blood contract.
The family blood contract that Earl Hall signed to protect Dorothy from being used as an experimental subject had now become a lock restricting Dorothy.
Earl Hall also felt very helpless.
The solution that Dorothy could think of was to get married early to cut off Augustus's thoughts.
But she happened to be looking for someone from the Moria family, Li En Moria.
If Dorothy and Li En Moria got married, it would mean that the Hall family and the Moria family were allied, violating the Covenant Family Convention and arousing Augustus's deeper dissatisfaction and jealousy.
Unless Li En Moria was willing to give up his identity as a member of the Moria family and marry into the Hall family.
This created another problem.
Would Augustus really watch Dorothy marry Li En?
The answer was also no.
Earl Hall found that his daughter's marriage had entered a dead end. The only thing he could do now was to not let Augustus get the Azure Dragon Whip.
He was not in a hurry to marry Dorothy now because he had not yet obtained the Azure Dragon Whip.
When he got the Azure Dragon Whip, he would no longer give Dorothy the freedom to choose.
"I will not let Augustus get the Azure Dragon Whip."
Earl Hall said with certainty,
This was exactly the purpose that Li En and Dorothy wanted to achieve.
"I have persuaded Augustus. He will send witches to participate in the expedition. Next, all we need is Dad's cooperation."
Dorothy said.
Earl Hall was slightly stunned, "Witches participating in the war?"
"Yes. Li En will persuade Grand Duke Moria. He will also cooperate with us."
Although Dorothy didn't say the specific plan, Earl Hall saw the confident look on Dorothy and Li En's faces, so they should have been fully confident.
He suddenly felt that he seemed to be getting old, and it was really time to let the world to these young people.
"As long as Augustus doesn't get the Azure Dragon Whip, and no more people are injured or killed because of my fault,
I will listen to your arrangements."
Earl Hall said.
"Uncle Hall, don't worry, I won't let Augustus get the Azure Dragon Whip, and I won't let Dorothy marry Augustus."
Li En guaranteed to Earl Hall.
Earl Hall looked at Li En and Dorothy, "This is your young people's world. I'm really old.
3
"Dad, you're not old at all."
Dorothy said.
"Yes, Grandpa, you're still very young."
Alexander echoed.
Earl Hall smiled bitterly, stretched out his hand, hugged Alexander, rubbed her black hair, and looked at Li En again with a much gentler gaze,
"Li En, you saved me again. Tell me, what do you need? I can give you anything."
"Uncle Hall, I don't need anything. These are all things I should do."
Li En felt that it was too early to ask for a reward now. Anyway, he would marry Dorothy in the future, and these would all be his.
Unless Dorothy regretted and didn't want to marry him.
That was indeed possible. Dorothy had discovered that she didn't need to rely on having children to reduce the burden of magic, because he could help her clear the entries.
She was now the vice president of the Entry Mutual Aid Association. If she was about to lose control, he would have no reason not to help her clear it.
And he seemed to have never confessed to her. Apart from Alexander as a bond, the emotional foundation between the two was not solid.
In addition, he couldn't terminate his engagement with Catherine.
It was normal for a legendary witch like Dorothy to refuse to marry him.
Thinking of this, Li En weakly asked,
"Uncle Hall, do you still want the Eye of the Future?"
This sentence had two meanings. The first was whether Earl Hall's agreement with Old Jack still counted, and whether the Eye of the Future could be used as a betrothal gift to allow Dorothy to sign a marriage contract with him.
The second meaning was whether Dorothy was willing to marry him.
Earl Hall needed a man who could protect Dorothy, because he himself could no longer do it because of the family blood contract.
And Li En was a person who could summon angels to save him twice, and was Earl Hall's only choice.
Even so, Earl Hall was still worried about Catherine's matter.
He hesitated and looked at Dorothy.
Dorothy's cheeks were slightly red, and she could certainly hear Li En's meaning.
But this didn't sound like a confession at all.
"Do you like Dorothy?"
Earl Hall suddenly asked.
This made Dorothy instantly nervous and wanted to stop her father from asking.
"Yes."
Li En said almost without hesitation.
Dorothy's face turned even redder, and many scenes of her getting along with Li En appeared in her mind, although most of them were not suitable for children.
Earl Hall nodded slightly, "Then just give the Eye of the Future to Dorothy. I'm not very interested in bestowed objects."
After a pause, Earl Hall said again,
"Li En, are you really not considering marrying into the Hall family? You will be the head of the Hall family in the future."
"If I marry into the family, Grandpa will probably vomit blood. I still want him to live a few more years."
Li En used Grand Duke Moria as a shield.
If he married into the family, he wouldn't be able to marry several wives.
What about Catherine? What about Sophie? What about Nancy and Anna? Forget about Fiya, it's just a simple py relationship.
Li En was thinking wildly when he saw Dorothy's burning gaze.
Although the Empire's youths were always tirelessly confessing to Dorothy and dueling for Dorothy,
But they had never really moved Dorothy.
And Li En was different.
He was the only one who made Dorothy happy from body to soul.
So after hearing Li En's confession, Dorothy was both shy and a little expectant.
If the two people's engagement cannot be made public temporarily, then it should be done secretly first.
"Okay, I don't have any questions. Alexander, stay and accompany Grandpa. You can go back first."
Earl Hall didn't ask the two to stay for dinner.
The two young people's eyes were already drawing silk, and he also knew that it was time for him to let them be alone now.
Dorothy and Li En said goodbye to Earl Hall, got on Dorothy's pumpkin carriage, and the two completely forgot that the Time Witch Milian was still in the Earl's Mansion.
Alexander and Cruz stayed to have dinner with Earl Hall, while they returned to the tower.
The pumpkin carriage moved slowly forward.
Li En stretched out his hand and took Dorothy's hand,
"If you want the Eye of the Future, I can give it to you now, but I must tell you that using the Eye of the Future will cause you to lose an important person in your life. That is the price. If possible, I hope you never use the Eye of the Future."
"Then I don't want it. Keep it with you."
Dorothy said directly.
Li En was slightly stunned, "Aren't you afraid that I will use the Eye of the Future, causing you to disappear or die?"
"Wouldn't that just prove that I am a very important existence in your heart."
Dorothy said.
"Of course you are an important existence. I will never use the Eye of the Future."
Li En guaranteed to Dorothy, and then pulled her into his arms.
The two hadn't been intimate for a long time.
"Then will you use the Azure Dragon Whip on me?"
Dorothy asked happily.
"No, I have it myself."
Li En leaned forward and pressed Dorothy on the car seat.
The pumpkin carriage returned to the tower from Earl Hall's Mansion. Originally, it would only take ten minutes at its speed, but it took several hours.
Letting the young men and women in the car enjoy the wonderful time without being disturbed.
"Li En, say it to me again."
"Dorothy, I like you."
"How much do you like me?"
"I like you so much that I can't stop."
The pumpkin carriage bumped towards an unknown direction, and the carriage was filled with hormones and the taste of love.
It was already dawn the next day when they returned to the tower.
If Dorothy hadn't been a witch, she probably wouldn't have been able to get out of the carriage directly.
"Let's get engaged quietly."
Dorothy suggested.
"No, I can't let my woman be wronged. When the Azure Dragon Court is stable, we will get engaged there."
Li En had made a plan. Since he couldn't get engaged in the Northern Continent, he would choose the Azure Dragon Court.
Let the expedition team become Dorothy's bridal escort team.
"That sounds good."
Dorothy smiled and agreed, kissing Li En's cheek, "I need to take a bath first."
She was covered in too much of Li En's scent. If she didn't wash it off, she would probably be discovered by Cameron and Ellie.
Although these two iron-headed guys have no experience, it can't be ruled out that they won't think too much.
Besides, Sophie and Fiya will also come to the tower today.
Li En decided to take a bath with Dorothy before Sophie and Fiya arrived.
While taking a bath, the two couldn't help but stick together and fall into the hormones of a relationship.
Li En discovered that witches and ordinary people were still very different. Many difficult movements that Catherine would never be able to complete, Dorothy could do.
Just when the two were busy in love in the bathroom, Sophie and Fiya came to the tower.
Fiya and Sophie both liked Dorothy's tower.
Because it not only had fun magical creatures, but also endless magical books.
The most important thing was that it was the headquarters of the Entry Mutual Aid Association.
They could continue to make magic cards and discuss pets and knowledge here.
Sophie had already regarded Fiya, who was knowledgeable, as a teacher, and would always ask her about pet knowledge.
Fiya also gave Sophie a pot of cacti that was said to never die and could survive in the harshest environments, expressing her friendliness.
Fiya believed that if Sophie could even kill a cactus, then her future pet would probably only be a vampire like Li En, who could satisfy her.
Sophie held her beloved cactus and carefully poked the thorns of the cactus with her hands.
Hearing Fiya and Sophie's voices, Li En held Dorothy in his arms and asked a little nervously, "Is the bathroom soundproof?"
Dorothy nodded, "You only need to set up a barrier."
"Well, then be louder."
Dorothy knew what Li En meant, and she felt ashamed and annoyed.
Why did this man like to hear the sound?
Dorothy's voice was very beautiful, like a nightingale singing, the most pleasant melody, making Li En even more enjoy this time of love.
If he had a mobile phone, he would not hesitate to record this sound.
Unfortunately, this era does not have mobile phones, and even landlines have not been invented.
"You have to sing to me often in the future, you know?"
Li En affectionately touched Dorothy's delicate nose.
"This is not singing."
Dorothy's face was as red as an apple, and her body was covered with the moisture of the bathroom, making her whole person crystal clear, like the most perfect work of art.
Li En pinched her tender face until her eyes were also covered with a layer of aggrieved mist, and then he let go.
Considering that Sophie and Fiya were outside, Li En didn't want to waste any more time to avoid being discovered by the two powerful witches, especially Fiya, whose intuition was terribly keen.
"Sophie, didn't you want to take a bath? I remember the tower's bathroom should be available."
Although Fiya had only been to Dorothy's tower a handful of times, she was very familiar with the environment here.
Because this morning, Sophie visited the place where she raised her pet Coal Ball, which caused her to get dust on her body, and Fiya's manor happened to have no hot water supply due to a collective water outage in that area, so neither of them had taken a bath.
Fiya felt that it was okay to borrow Dorothy's bathroom, and Dorothy shouldn't mind.
Sophie, who was covered in dust, also felt that she should take a bath, so as not to see Li En in such an image later, which was not very good.
Fiya began to look for Dorothy in the tower and asked Sophie to go to the bathroom first.
Sophie walked to the bathroom door and twisted the doorknob.
Can't open it? Is someone inside?
Sophie knocked on the door, but there was no response,
So, Sophie twisted the handle hard again.
Finally, the door opened.
Li En in a bathrobe stood in front of her, his tall figure casting a shadow.
Sophie raised her head, saw that the golden-haired beauty's hair was still dripping water, and was slightly stunned.
"Li En?"
"Sophie, do you want to come in and take a bath together?"
Li En looked at the dust on Sophie's nose and couldn't help but reach out and wipe it clean for her.
Sophie blushed and stepped back.
She was not ready to bathe with Li En, and this development was too fast.
She shook her head to refuse.
Li En closed the door with a regretful expression, but he was panicking in his heart. Fortunately, it was Sophie who came to knock on the door, not Fiya. If it was Fiya, that fox nose would have smelled Dorothy's scent.
Dorothy hid in the bathtub and carefully poked her head out, conveying with her eyes, "Is she gone?"
Li En nodded.
Sophie's mind was a little confused. She hugged the cactus blankly, turned around, and went to find Fiya.
Li En quickly came out of the bathroom and found that Sophie and Fiya were not in the living room, so he called Dorothy out too.
Perhaps because she had just taken a bath, Dorothy's cheeks were still a little flushed. Seeing that no one saw her, she breathed a sigh of relief except for the carpet, the lamp, the magic book, the sofa, the crutch and the crystal ball, and the bookshelf.
"Oh, look, Dorothy and Li En came out together."
"What did these two do in the bathroom just now?"
"When are you getting married?"
Dorothy waved her hand, and a cloud of magic dust spread around, and the chattering magical creatures immediately lost their voices, and the world became quiet.
"If you continue to discuss this topic, next time I will not only take away your voices."
Dorothy said, covering her hot cheeks. She was now a little worried that the magical creatures had told Sophie and Fiya about the two of them entering the bathroom together.
Fortunately, these magical creatures also knew how to recognize their masters and did not speak casually.
Li En expressed his approval of Dorothy's actions. He didn't want Sophie to hear these strange remarks, "Dorothy, did we forget something?"
"Forget what?"
Dorothy looked at Li En curiously.
Li En thought about it, "It seems like we forgot someone."
"Who?"
"The Time Witch Milian who followed me to the Earl's Mansion yesterday seems to have been dropped at the Earl's Mansion."
Li En suddenly remembered.
Dorothy also suddenly realized.
"It's okay, let Alexander bring her back when he comes back."
Sophie and Fiya walked up from downstairs and only saw Li En sitting on the sofa alone.
And Dorothy walked out of her room and greeted the two politely.
"Fiya, Sophie, good morning, you came really early today. Oh, Li En is also here."
"Yes, Miss Dorothy, I borrowed your bathroom. I hope you don't mind. The area where I live happened to have a water outage."
Li En said.
"It's okay."
Dorothy said generously, "Water outages are common in Yalong City in the autumn. Oh, it's even worse in winter."
Fiya looked at Li En suspiciously. Yalong City was very large, and some areas would indeed have water outages, but it would definitely not be in the upper three districts.
It was okay to deceive a simple witch like Sophie with this lie, but it would definitely not deceive Fiya.
She pushed her gold-rimmed glasses and thought for a moment before coming to the conclusion that the two had just taken a bath together.
Dorothy was probably embarrassed, so she cooperated with Li En and told a lie.
And what about Li En?
Fiya looked at Sophie and instantly understood.
Li En was because of this honest witch Sophie.
She looked at Li En again with admiration, not understanding how Li En did it, so earnestly loving all the beautiful girls, or were all men like this?
Finding Fiya's fiery gaze, Li En twitched the corner of his mouth.
He had almost guessed what Fiya was thinking.
Fiya, don't say it, the idea of admiring your own promiscuity is simply to let yourself face the Shura field.
I just made a mistake that all men make.
Because he didn't want to face Fiya, who was too smart and had a clear mind, Li En first praised the cactus in Sophie's hand, and then made an excuse to find Grand Duke Moria to discuss important matters and slipped away early.
Li En had just walked to the door of the tower when he saw Cameron and Ellie rushing over.
"President, something bad happened."
Cameron saw Li En and said breathlessly, "The director found out that Milian is missing, and the entire Guardian Bureau is looking for Milian now."
Ellie nodded and added, "The director is very angry."
If the media knew that someone had escaped from the Red Tower, it would definitely become the new headline of the Holy Empire.
Letting the public begin to question the power of witches.
It seemed that Nina Owen's clone had not deceived Ophelia.
Originally, Li En thought that if things went smoothly, that clone would be able to replace Milian on the guillotine.
Now it seemed that things were not going so smoothly.
"Were you two also sent to find Milian?"
Li En asked.
"No, our main task is still Miss Sophie."
Cameron said.
Li En frowned and said in a low voice,
"It seems like we are being suspected."
Cameron and Ellie looked at Li En in surprise.
They then realized that the decision to rush back to find Li En seemed to be a mistake.
"Director Ophelia, don't hide it, okay?"
Li En said.
Ophelia walked out of the Silent Forest, and she was also holding two hounds,
These hounds were not ordinary hounds, but spiritual hounds with very sensitive noses and spiritual perception.
They could clearly identify the scent of every witch.
So if Milian was here, the spiritual hounds would tell Ophelia.
Unfortunately, because Milian happened to not be in the tower, the spiritual hounds did not play their role.
"Our important prisoner is missing, and I would like to ask Deputy Director Hall for help."
Ophelia said, using the excuse she had prepared long ago.
In fact, she suspected Dorothy and Li En.
The reason for the suspicion was also very simple. Augustus had asked her to go to the palace yesterday, which happened to be the time when Milian escaped.
And she also learned from other witches that she had gone to the top floor once.
So who disguised themselves as herself?
The Guardian Bureau had never had a prison break in so many years.
Until Li En, this special advisor, and Dorothy took office as the deputy director of the Guardian Bureau, the Milian prison break occurred, making it difficult for Ophelia not to suspect.
It was just that Ophelia didn't understand why the two would rob Milian.
Milian had no interaction with them at all, and could be said to be a complete stranger.
"Of course, Miss Hall and I are very willing to cooperate with Director to find this important prisoner."
Li En said with a smile, not showing any panic.
Ophelia led the two spiritual hounds up the steps of the tower, and Cameron and Ellie followed nervously behind.
When Dorothy saw Ophelia and Li En appear together, she immediately understood what had happened.
They were here to find the Time Witch Milian.
Sophie saw the director of the Guardian Bureau again, she put her hand on her chest and made a witch protection salute,
"Director."
"Well, Ice Witch, have you had any special feelings recently?"
Ophelia asked with concern.
Sophie was a key monitoring project of the Guardian Bureau. Although Cameron and Ellie would report her situation regularly, Ophelia couldn't help but ask with concern since she saw her.
Sophie shook her head.
"Well, very good, maybe this is the natural growth of witches."
After Ophelia finished speaking, she looked at Dorothy.
"Deputy Director Hall, I am here this time to ask you to assist in the investigation of the prisoner's escape."
"It sounds like an internal affair of the Guardian Bureau, so I will take my leave first."
Fiya was holding a thick book, and on the surface it looked like she was here to borrow a book from Dorothy.
"Well."
Ophelia nodded slightly, Fiya was still a member of the Holy See.
Ophelia didn't want the Holy See to participate.
What Ophelia found strange was that Fiya and Dorothy's relationship seemed to be good.
It was rumored that Fiya the High Priest was alone and had no friends.
It seemed that this was not the case.
The relationships of the people in this room seemed to be not simple.
And their common point was that they were all related to Li En.
Ophelia saw Fiya leave before slowly saying, "Deputy Director Hall, I don't know if you know the Time Witch Milian."
"I don't know her."
Dorothy said, waving her hand, and the teapot flew to her hand on its own. She poured a cup of tea for Ophelia.
Ophelia took the teacup and looked at the two very well-behaved spiritual hounds at her feet.
If Milian was hiding here, the spiritual hounds would definitely find her and bark non-stop.
But now the two dogs didn't react at all, which meant that Milian was indeed not here.
"What about Li En?"
Ophelia looked at Li En.
"I'm sorry, although I am a special advisor to the Guardian Bureau, I don't know all the witch ladies. Apart from Cameron and Ellie, I'm afraid I only know Sophie, Dorothy, and Asch."
Li En said calmly.
"Last night, the imprisoned Milian was replaced by someone who disguised themselves as me. Although Milian successfully escaped, she didn't have the key to unlock the lock, and the key has always been with me. If she wants freedom, she must come to me to get the key."
Ophelia deliberately revealed key information, wanting to let Li En and Dorothy take the bait.
But she didn't know that Li En had used extreme means to solve the lock made of the Philosopher's Stone.
"It sounds like this witch named Milian was only half successful. If her accomplices want to completely free her, they must go to the Guardian Bureau again."
Li En said deliberately to cooperate.
Ophelia nodded, "That's right. I'm looking forward to them coming to me."
Although it was just a guess that Li En and Dorothy were the murderers, but because there was no evidence, and because of their special identities, even Ophelia couldn't directly arrest them, so she could only take this approach.
The spiritual hounds didn't find Milian, but it didn't eliminate the suspicion of the two in Ophelia's heart.
"Director, do you need me to use a locating spell to help?"
Dorothy asked.
"Okay."
Ophelia temporarily couldn't tell whether Dorothy was acting, but she cooperated quite well.
She took out a photo of Milian and handed it to Dorothy, observing the changes in Dorothy and Li En's expressions.
The two performed seamlessly, without any abnormalities.
Ellie didn't have many expressions because of her facial paralysis.
But Cameron seemed a little nervous.
Li En realized that Cameron's psychological quality needed at least one hypnosis session to avoid being noticed by Ophelia.
Dorothy took out the map of Yalong City, put the photo of Milian on the map, lit a candle, and with the fire of the candle, Dorothy chanted a spell, and then sprinkled a handful of sand.
The sand gradually gathered into the shape of an earthworm, crawling towards the east of the map, and finally crawled out of Yalong City,
Turning into a pile of loose sand.
"I only know that she is not in Yalong City now."
"The east of Yalong City is Gaojunling. I will send people to Gaojunling to look for Milian."
Ophelia said, standing up.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't find the exact location."
Dorothy said apologetically.
This reduced Ophelia's suspicion of her in her heart.
"Cameron, Ellie, go back to the Guardian Bureau with me."
Ophelia suddenly said, scaring Cameron's face white.
"Okay, I will go back to the Guardian Bureau with them later. Since the Guardian Bureau has had such a thing happen, I will definitely help bring the Time Witch back."
Li En stood in front of Cameron, blocking Ophelia's sight, and said with a serious face.
Cameron instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ophelia remained noncommittal and turned to leave.
Soon after she left the tower, Li En had Dorothy perform a temporary hypnosis on Cameron and Ellie,
Letting them forget the memory of Li En successfully rescuing Milian.
Then Li En didn't rush to take Cameron and Ellie back to the Guardian Bureau, but went to Alexburg first according to the original plan.
Li En discussed the expedition with Grand Duke Moria, and before sunset, he took his two subordinates to the Guardian Bureau.
Ophelia called Cameron to the director's office alone.
"Cameron, I have always trusted you very much."
