Meeting the City Lord

"What are you doing here, Hu Jing? I thought I explicitly said that no one was supposed to disturb me?" a sweet voice interrupted Liu Feng's plane of thought.

Hu Jing involuntarily trembled and kneeled down on the ground. 

"Forgive me, City Lord, but this was an important issue that could not be delayed any further." Hu Jing said. 

"What is this important matter? And you better have a very good answer, or I am going to show my fury!" the sweet voice showed a hint of irritation. 

"This boy here, he says that he came from the Stairway of the heavens. And he has control over the Yuan Principle. There is a chance that he will be able to open the Yuan Mountain, and we will be able to leave this city for the first time!" Hu Jing said with sparkling eyes. 

Creak!

The door that stood in front of Liu Feng and Hu Jing opened, and a bright light shone upon them. Liu Feng squinted at the light, while Hu Jing was unmoving.
