“Young Master Li's name has now spread throughout the lands.”

Yu Su covered her mouth and chuckled, her gaze towards Li Guanqi filled with admiration.

“My family is located several hundred miles away from the Yongjiang River, so I know a bit about Young Master Li's affairs.”

Li Guanqi nodded slightly, but was surprised inside.

However, judging from her appearance, she shouldn't know about my relationship with the Void Heaven Palace.

If she did, it wouldn't just be a woman coming to greet me today.

That Xiahou Cang would definitely treat me with courtesy and come in person.

But since she doesn't know, that's even better.

Li Guanqi didn't want his identity to be exposed, so he could only nod with a smile.

The woman's posture was dignified and elegant, and she always looked directly at the person she was talking to.

Perhaps because of Li Guanqi's eyes, Yu Su's gaze was always focused on the space between his eyebrows when she looked at him.

This way, she gave Li Guanqi enough respect without appearing too frivolous.

Combining everything before, Li Guanqi felt that the woman in front of him was unusually intelligent.

Although the woman's cultivation realm was not high, only at the second level of the Profound Immortal Realm,

her words and actions, and her current behavior of coming to find him, all felt very unusual.

Xiahou Cang had just left, and she came alone right after!!

After a moment of silence, Li Guanqi spoke softly.

“Madam Yu came to me alone, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as inviting me to your mansion for a visit, right?”

“Moreover, City Lord Xiahou just came to me, and you came right after…”

“If you have something to say, why not just say it?”

There was no surprise in Yu Su's eyes.

In her opinion, a person like Li Guanqi should naturally have such intelligence and sophistication.

Yu Su smiled, her gentle temperament always made people overlook her shrewdness.

Yu Su sat upright and looked at Li Guanqi softly.

“Young Master Li should now have a preliminary understanding of the entire Emperor Rest Bay's situation.”

“Xia Lin City has a special product, which is the Blood-Stalked Flower that my husband gifted to you.”

Li Guanqi nodded slightly, he had already guessed a thing or two about this from the manager of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

The woman's eyes were always on Li Guanqi, and when she saw his indifferent expression, she was also a little impressed.

You should know that Li Guanqi hasn't been here for long, and logically speaking, he shouldn't know about this kind of secret matter.

Suddenly, the woman seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes lit up slightly.

“Could it be that he found out after taking a trip to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion?”

“How amazing…”

Yu Su suddenly realized that her words might need to be more frank.

“Young Master Li is indeed very talented, since that's the case, I won't beat around the bush.”

“We'll be at the mansion soon, let's sit down and talk in detail.”

Li Guanqi nodded slightly, he also wanted to know why Yu Su came to him.

Moreover, her words were not to thank him for yesterday's matter, obviously she came for something else.

Soon the carriage stopped in the courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion. As soon as he got off the carriage, Xiahou Cang, whom he had just met, walked up to him.

Presumably Yu Su had already told the man the reason on the way.

The approaching man stood personally under the carriage and reached out to help the woman down.

Then, looking at Li Guanqi who was walking down, he cupped his hands with a smile.

“I've brought my little friend back again, please forgive me.”

The servants in the mansion were all shocked when they saw this.

They didn't understand why the City Lord and the Mistress would show such respect to a young man.

Li Guanqi smiled, and also cupped his hands in return after getting off the carriage.

As for bowing?

I am a guest, invited here, why should I bow?

Yu Su and others didn't say much, and led Li Guanqi towards the main hall.

Li Guanqi followed beside Xiahou Cang, slightly behind.

The respect that should be given is still necessary.

Xiahou Cang nodded slightly, and his impression of Li Guanqi, a person with such a sense of propriety, was not bad.

Arriving at the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion, it was magnificent, luxurious, and majestic.

Li Guanqi and the two of them sat down face to face, and the servants brought up spirit fruits, tea, and snacks, etc.

Xiahou Cang waved his hand slightly, and all the servants retreated and closed the door.

This scene made Li Guanqi, who was drinking tea, raise his eyebrows slightly. It seemed that these two were really asking for something from him.

Xiahou Cang asked with a slightly strange expression.

“By the way, I remember that little friend was also accompanied by a senior, why haven't I seen him?”

Li Guanqi put down his teacup and said softly with a smile.

“The elder in my family went to stroll around on his own.”

Xiahou Cang was shocked, the entire Xia Lin City was under his control.

How could he not know that the old man had disappeared out of thin air…

The young man in front of him gave him a very mysterious feeling.

Yu Su then said with a smile.

“Young Master Li can try the snacks in our mansion, they taste pretty good.”

Li Guanqi smiled and waved his hand.

He looked at the two of them and said directly.

“You two, just say what you have to say, be straightforward.”

The two looked at each other upon hearing this, and Yu Su said directly.

“Didn't Young Master discover that someone in our mansion was killed?”

Li Guanqi nodded slightly.

“I know.”

The woman signaled Xiahou Cang to talk about the next matter.

The man pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice.

“That manager is the manager in our mansion, specializing in transporting Blood-Stalked Flowers!”

Li Guanqi frowned slightly, recalling the scene of the old man being killed.

“That old man… was colluding with others behind the City Lord's back to trade privately?”

Li Guanqi's words shocked Xiahou Cang, and he looked at Li Guanqi in disbelief.

Even Yu Su on the side said softly.

“I said long ago, Young Master Li is no ordinary person.”

Xiahou Cang shook his head and smiled bitterly, it seemed that he had really underestimated the other party.

“Little friend is right, the manager has indeed been colluding with others for many years, privately swallowing Blood-Stalked Flowers and trading with others.”

But then Li Guanqi pointed out the problem.

“Since it's a shady collusion, there's no reason for the other party to kill him!”

“With long-term cooperation, how could they kill someone for a few Blood-Stalked Flowers?”

Xiahou Cang's expression changed again and again, and the way he looked at Li Guanqi no longer had the previous contempt.

He tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest beside him, and the woman beside him squeezed his arm, and the man slowly spoke.

“Because… the person behind the scenes can't help but want to attack me!”

“The transaction that can only be carried out once every few years is obviously no longer enough to satisfy the other party.”

Li Guanqi closed his eyes and thought about it.

“No… it shouldn't be like this.”

Now even Yu Su looked at Li Guanqi with some surprise.

“Oh?”

“Then, in Young Master Li's opinion, why is this?”

Li Guanqi opened his eyes and smiled, pointing at Xiahou Cang and laughing.

“If City Lord Xiahou doesn't tell me all the details, I can't analyze it.”

“Since you're thinking of inviting me back, why not make everything clear?”

“Also… why do you have to find me, isn't it because I'm a fresh face, and my strength is not bad?”
