Chapter 594: I Want This Person
Chapter 594: I Want This Person
The woman sitting in the sedan chair had the cultivation base of a One-leaf Spirit Emperor. Wherever she went, she even had a much stronger momentum than the continent’s superiors at Spirit Sovereign.
After the woman’s sedan chair passed by, Yu Qing Qian asked the passerby beside her: “Who’s she!”
“She’s the wife of the City Lord’s Mansion. How could you not know her?”
The passerby looked at Yu Qing Qian inexplicably, but still explained: “Everyone should avoid the place where the lady’s sedan chair passes, otherwise they would be punished and beaten to death by the guards of the City Lord’s Mansion on the spot.”
“This is my first time entering the city and I don’t know this lady.” Yu Qing Qian asked again: “Then wouldn’t the momentum be even more so when the City Lord travelled?”
The person rolled his eyes at Yu Qing Qian, “The City Lord always rides his own mount when he travels. His wife is a woman and is very favoured, so she’s naturally treated more favourably.”
“I see. Thank you for clearing up my confusion.” Yu Qing Qian finally understood just how noble a woman’s status was that Gu Yan mentioned from the memories of the demonic plant.
The man nodded, then reminded her: “Since this is your first time in this city, remember you’d rather offend the City Lord than the City Lord’s wife in the city. Otherwise you’ll die a very ugly death.”
After the passerby finished speaking, he immediately left the street with his companions.
After hearing about the cruelty of the City Lord’s wife, Yu Qing Qian didn’t care either. She found an inn to stay at and carefully studied the information of the southern cities1.
That night, the City Lord’s Mansion.
The City Lord’s wife sat on the couch, and a middle-aged man sat beside her to massage her feet.
“My wife, are you tired today?” The man asked gently.
The City Lord’s wife raised her eyelids lightly, “Not too tired, thank you, my husband, for thinking about me.”
The middle-aged man leaned over and kissed the woman, “Your husband is constantly thinking about you.” Then he touched her ankle.
The woman gave a charming look to the man, and just as she was about to speak, she heard a knock at the dor.
The middle-aged man withdrew his hand in disappointment, “Come in.”
A steward came in and bowed to the two of them, “Greetings City Lord, Madam.”
“Why are you disturbing us even at this hour?” The middle-aged man asked with some displeasure.
The elderly man presented a piece of information, “Reporting to City Lord, this is a more noteworthy event that happened in the city today.”
The Cirt Lord opened it and read it, then his originally indifferent expression focused.
The woman took the initiative to reach out and take the information, then flipped through it. Her eyes lit up, “There’s actually a Master-level potion at excellent quality that improves the cultivation of Spirit Emperors.”
Ever since she advanced to Spirit Emperor, no matter how hard she cultivated, her progress was very slow. She took many potions, but they didn’t help much. If there were high-quality potions, then she could advance to Second-leaf Spirit Emperor after taking it.
“Husband, I want this person.” The woman leaned against the middle-aged man and drew some circles with her fingers on him.
The middle-aged man felt a tingle, hugged her and said with a smile: “Sure, I’ll have someone catch him tomorrow morning and give him to you, my wife.”
The woman thought for a bit, then said: “Send someone to accompany me, I’ll catch him myself tomorrow.”
Since the person was willing to sell the potions to the shop, then he must have extra potions on him, and maybe even better ones.
If other people in the City Lord’s Mansion were to go catch him, and those two old decrepit things knew about it, they might even intercept and take the person away. So she had to strike first.
The middle-aged man pondered for a moment, “Alright, I’ll send a few advanced-level Spirit Emperors to accompany you tomorrow.”
Then he changed his tone and said: “But if you meet the two elders’ people when you go catch him, my wife, you’d better give them some soup at least, otherwise they’ll keep nagging me all day long.”
The woman lowered her eyes to hide the coldness in them. Those two decrepit old things just loved to secretly oppose her. She’d definitely eliminate them when she had the chance.
“I know. Don’t you believe me?” The woman reached out and tapped the City Lord’s chest.
The elderly man very tactfully retreated when he saw this. The man pushed the woman down and kissed her with a smile.
