The City Lord

Upon issuing the invitation, “The City Lord would like to welcome you to our humble city,” the red-uniformed guard deepened his humble bow. “Please follow me to the City Lord’s mansion where you may take up residency for as long as you wish.”

Hui Yue nodded in reply and slowly followed the guards. Everyone who previously followed closely behind them now spread out to allow them an easy passage. None of them could easily forget how the snake-woman had just killed at least three men with one swipe of her tail.

Hui Yue once more walked at a leisurely pace through the town, observing everything around him. He quickly noticed that they had taken a roundabout way to reach the City Lord’s mansion. Despite this, Hui Yue understood the layout of the streets.

The City Lord’s mansion was small in comparison to the one from Riluo City, yet the size was still quite large. It was definitely larger than the mansion that Hui Yue had bought.
