That person’s body suddenly froze. He thought that he was hearing things.

“Who are you? Who are you?”

The people in the city followed closely behind him as they rushed out. The person in the lead raised a torch and gradually illuminated Su Ying’s face.

“City Lord?”

Tiger Might spoke first in disbelief.

Behind him, more and more flames lit up Su Ying’s slightly icy eyes. As she looked at all these familiar faces, Su Ying’s tense eyes gradually relaxed and revealed a faint smile. “It’s me.”

Qiao Yang practically jumped off his horse. His eyes widened in shock as he staggered over to Su Ying, but he stopped three steps away from her. He looked up and down at her in disbelief.

“Are… are you for real? The real City Lord?”

Su Ying slapped him on the head. “What? Did someone pretend to be me before?”

Qiao Yang shook his head repeatedly. Many people in the city had never seen Su Ying’s appearance before, much less outside people. So how could anyone impersonate her?

“It’s really the City Lord! It’s really the City Lord. The living City Lord has returned!” Qiao Yang shouted excitedly.

Tiger Might came back to his senses and kicked his b.u.t.t. “Why are you so noisy? You still haven’t learned to be more mature even after such a long time.”

After getting kicked twice, Qiao Yang grinned foolishly at Su Ying in embarra.s.sment. “I’m just too happy to see the City Lord.”

Tiger Might and the others were delighted as well. They were not expecting Su Ying to return at this point.

“What are you standing there for? Hurry up and let the City Lord into the city.” “Yes, yes, yes. City Lord, please come into the city quickly to warm up.

Su Ying nodded. She also wanted to understand the situation as soon as possible.

“City Lord?”

“Is it really the City Lord?”

“The City Lord has really returned!”

On the way into the city, Su Ying kept hearing everyone whispering to each other with suppressed excitement.

From the surprise and joy in their words, she could tell that they were overjoyed by her return.

Tiger Might immediately sent someone to inform the people in the city in advance that Su Ying had returned. Su Ying had just reached the palace gates when she saw a group of people waiting outside. When they saw her walking over, they all came forward to welcome her.

“Welcome back, City Lord.”

The orderly greetings seemed to break the invisible shackles that were binding her in an instant. Su Ying gestured for everyone to rise.

Su Ying’s gaze swept across them one by one. They were all familiar faces, but she didn’t see Chu Yun.

“Where’s Chu Yun?”

Next to her, Tiger Might’s two fearsome eyes darkened when he heard her query. “A few days ago, he went to the camp of those people to negotiate with them. However, those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds actually deployed tricks and tried to take Lord Chu’s life. We risked our lives to save him, but Lord Chu was still injured and is now recuperating.”

“I’ll go take a look.”

Tiger Might brought Su Ying to Chu Yun’s lodging.

When Su Ying saw Chu Yun, the sky was just about to brighten. Rays of pale golden light shone through the window into the room, illuminating Chu Yun’s abnormally pale face.

When Chu Yun saw Su Ying, he was so shocked that he forgot to speak.

“City Lord?”

Su Ying walked up to him. “I’m back.”

He was a seven-foot-tall strapping man, yet his eyes suddenly became red-rimmed.

Su Ying was a little surprised. This was the first time she had seen a long-suffering expression with a hint of grievance in Chu Yun’s eyes. It seemed that this fellow had suffered quite a lot during this period.

“City Lord, it’s good that you’re back.” Realizing that he had lost his composure,

Chu Yun quickly recovered himself and gathered his emotions.

“Where are you hurt?”

“City Lord, don’t worry. It’s just some external injuries. I will recover with a few days of rest.”

Su Ying looked at Tiger Might, who nodded in concurrence with Chu Yun.

The doctors in the city were quite skilled, so Su Ying did not insist on examining Chu Yun’s wounds. “Since you’re still injured, you should rest well first. Don’t worry about anything else.”

With Tiger Might and the others around, they could also explain everything to

Su Ying, so Chu Yun did not insist.

“City Lord, you must have rushed back in a hurry, right? I have already instructed people to prepare food. In a while, please eat something first, City Lord. I will slowly bring you up to date on everything, City Lord.”

Su Ying nodded and gestured to Chu Yun to rest well first.

“City Lord, there’s no need to be anxious. Although the matter is a little troublesome, our people are still guarding the place. They don’t dare to act rashly.”

Su Ying gave an unfathomable soft chuckle. “Don’t worry. Even if we don’t have the upper hand, I can still s.n.a.t.c.h back what belongs to us.”

Chu Yun smiled with relief. “Indeed, you are right, City Lord. I was

overthinking.”

“Rest now.”

“Alright.”

Su Ying and Tiger Might came to the meeting hall.

Before long, the black-robed guards brought in the steaming hot dishes.

“City Lord, eat something first. Whatever it is, we can talk after you have eaten your fill.”

Su Ying sat down on a chair and gestured for them to sit down as well. “It’s already dawn. You guys haven’t slept all night, have you? Sit down and eat something.”

Qiao Yang grinned upon hearing that and was about to sit down on the chair. However, before his b.u.t.t could even touch the chair, he was glared into backing off by Tiger Might.

Qiao Yang shrank his head back and did not dare to move anymore. “City Lord, you go ahead. Well just make do with two mouthfuls later.” Su Ying tapped her knuckles on the table. “Sit down. It’s been a long time since I saw you guys. Let’s eat together. There’s no need to be so formal.” Since Su Ying had already said so, it would be ungracious of them to continue making excuses.

Qiao Yang chuckled gleefully. He shamelessly chose a seat closest to Su Ying and sat down.

“City Lord, all these are cooked by Uncle Murong. His cooking skills have been getting better and better over this one year. Quickly try some.” There was no doubt Su Ying approved of Murong De’s culinary skills.

After Uncle Hea entered the palace, all the dishes he made became more exquisite. However, Su Ying actually preferred the dishes he made in Sky Alpha City.

“City Lord, try this soup. This is a freshly slaughtered sheep. He even said that he would use it to make roast mutton at night. And this chicken. This is a mature chicken that Uncle Murong has been feeding for a year. On normal days, if we wanted to eat it, he wasn’t willing to slaughter it at all. When he heard that City Lord had returned, he immediately suggested slaughtering that chicken.”

In the blink of an eye, the bowl in front of Su Ying was heaped high with food.

“Enough. Don’t impede the City Lord from having her meal.” Tiger Might looked disgusted.

Qiao Yang put down his chopsticks in embarra.s.sment and grinned foolishly at Su Ying.

Su Ying looked at him sideways, and Qiao Yang’s face immediately turned red. “City Lord, you… you are sick of Xiao Jin, aren’t you? I… I can do it!” As soon as he finished speaking, a huge pancake smashed into his face.

“A table full of food can’t even block up your mouth.” Su Ying shot him an icy glance before grabbing the lamb leg and taking a bite.

Qiao Yang grabbed the pancake in bitter disappointment and took a bite ferociously as if he was biting Xiao Jin s fles.h.!.+

It turned out that the City Lord did not return because she was tired of Xiao Jin.. It had been so long, but why was the City Lord still not tired of Xiao Jin? He did not know what was so good about that rascal!
