Chapter 3344: Chapter 3345: Immediately Changed Her Tune
Sure enough, when the woman heard the maid’s words, she was startled by her own idea of causing a scene.
If she really went to make a fuss, she wouldn’t gain any advantage.
Who likes a shrewish woman anyway? Everyone prefers someone gentle and virtuous. Thank goodness the maid reminded her, or she might have messed things up.
"Who said I’m going to cause a scene? Can’t I just go have a look?"
She quickly changed her tune. Even if she went to the City Lord’s Mansion, it didn’t necessarily mean she was causing trouble. Couldn’t she just be there to offer congratulations? As the precious daughter of the Sixth Elder, she certainly had the right to enter the City Lord’s Mansion.
"I just want to see what kind of vixen face that woman has, to actually bewitch the Junior City Lord into such a daze. She must not be anything good!"
Maid: "..."
It seemed like her lady still intended to cause trouble?
But as a mere maid, how could she possibly dissuade her lady? She could only follow her lady to the City Lord’s Mansion.
...
City Lord’s Mansion.
Everything was already communicated with the heads of the major families, so everyone knew it was the return of the Junior City Lord and his wife, thus skipping the usual introductions.
Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang ran into an acquaintance, the ruler of the Haibo Kingdom, who kept them engaged in conversation.
"You two are really something, being the Junior City Lords of Sky City. Truly extraordinary! You must take good care of us beastmen of Haibo Kingdom in the future."
"Heh."
Faced with such courteous words, Lin Caisang merely smiled.
The Haibo Kingdom is a nation on par with Sky City; why would they need their care?
"I recently crafted a batch of lifespan elixir. The ruler can take it back for ’Beebee’ to use."
Beebee is the son of the ruler of Haibo Kingdom. Perhaps his mother, like her, is terrible at naming and gave her child such a nickname.
But names, she feels, are all the same. Aren’t they just for people to call you? It doesn’t matter what they’re called.
"Really? Thank you so much, Junior City Lord’s wife." The ruler of Haibo Kingdom’s eyes lit up at the mention of the lifespan elixir.
Their child has always been frail and possesses more skills than the average demon, which worries him to death, fearing he won’t survive.
But with the lifespan elixir, it’s different. It’s a great thing that enhances physique and longevity!
"In the future, whenever Sky City needs mounts, just leave it to me." He patted his chest, assuring the two of them.
"Then we’ll have to thank the ruler."
Sui Zimo was not shy; the lifespan elixir cost his wife quite a bit of effort to craft, just to present it to the ruler’s son when he came.
After putting in so much effort, it wouldn’t make sense not to get something in return.
"By the way, there are quite a few people coming and going through the vortex lately. Does it have anything to do with you?" After some pleasantries, the ruler of Haibo Kingdom asked a serious question.
The comings and goings of those people made him anxious, fearing they might do something insane.
"There is some relation, but it’s nothing major," Sui Zimo said.
Once those people come this time, they won’t come again, since they wouldn’t get any of the things they wanted.
Instead, they would have to pay the price they deserved!
