City Lord's Mansion

"Young Master, you're finally back!" Seeing Qi Shaorong come back, Qi Heng can't help but let out a sigh of relief.

Qi Shaorong crossed his arms and asked, "Did I leave for a long time?"

During the days at the bottom of the sea, he couldn't tell the difference between day and night. After reuniting with You Da, they searched for a way out in the Land of the Lost God for a long time before they came out.

"Almost 2 months."

Qi Shaorong nodded, and said a little surprised, "It's been that long, ah! During the period when I was gone, did something happen?"

Qi Heng hesitated for a moment, and said,"There weren't any major things."

"What about minor things?" Qi Shaorong looked at Qi Heng's strange expression and asked.

Qi Heng thought for a while and said, "Minor things, there is indeed a minor thing. News of you and Young Master Zhuang Hao leaving was impossible to hide. Rumors came out of nowhere that you and Young Master Zhuang were unfortunately killed and died young!"

Qi Shaorong spits out all the tea in mouth, "The outside is rumoring I died?"

Qi Heng nodded and answered, "About it."

Qi Shaorong's face twisted, and he questioned, "You think that this is not major?"

Qi Heng shrugged and said, "Because there are too many city lords that have encountered misfortune, so most didn't have much of a reaction toward news of your 'death'. Everyone seems to be- used to it. It's just that some wanted to take advantage of the fire to steal, so they came to the City Lord's Mansion to steal things!"

Qi Shaorong: " ...... " Those lowly things.

"There was no loss to the City Lord's Mansion, right?" Qi Shaorong asked.

"Nope. Hei Sha chased away anyone that came."

"There's finally some use to this guy."

Before the mermaid princess brought people to trouble Bi Liuyun, but Hei Sha didn't make a move. Although Qi Shaorong understood Hei Sha's stance, he still somewhat minds.

"The Imperial Capital will send people over." Qi Heng said.

Qi Shaorong tilted his head and looked at Qi Heng, and asked, "The emperor will send someone over? Why? Did the emperor also hear the news of my death?"

Qi Heng nodded, "I think he should have heard some."

"The emperor, that old man, is he sending someone here to see if I'm dead?" Qi Shaorong asked.

Qi Shaorong saw that Qi Heng didn't speak, which meant he had acquiesced.

Qi Shaorong shook his head and said: "If the old guy believed that I'm dead, I'm afraid he's going to be disappointed!"

Qi Heng: "...."

"Young Master, you have caused too much trouble recently. I think the people sent by the Imperial Capital are to monitor you." Qi Heng said.

Qi Shaorong looked at Qi Heng and said, "Have I caused any serious trouble? I'm just doing some small business."

"Young Master, you forgot. You rescued the Sea Tribes' Nightcrawler, in addition to Feng Yuan from before. Young Master has already treated two saint-level masters, and you also gave several level-nine masters of the Sea Tribes plastic surgery. Now with your connections, I'm afraid the emperor is jealous!"

Qi Shaorong stroked his chin and asked, "Who will be the person sent over from the Imperial Capital?"

"It is said that a prince is going to be sent, but which prince it is, I can't say for sure." Qi Heng said.
