The man’s gaze swept over Lan Song, yet just that one glance made Lan Song feel as though a giant mountain was pressing down on him, giving him the sense that his life was being crushed in someone else’s hands.

It seemed that just a thought from the other could turn him into ashes.

In his whole life, Lan Song had never encountered such a powerful man.

Not to mention the Great Commander Sun Yao who fled in panic, even the Young Master likely couldn’t compare to this man...

"Where is she?"

The man’s deep and alluring voice sounded slowly, causing Lan Song’s heart to clench instantly, cold sweat slowly trickling down his forehead...

"The Lord... the Lord and the Young Master went to the Imperial City."

"Imperial City?"

The man’s brow furrowed slightly, but then quickly relaxed, a shallow smile tugging at the corners of his lips: "I came here to find her, yet she went to the Imperial City to seek me, it seems I need to return."

Upon hearing the man’s words, Lan Song’s heart trembled violently, but his inner excitement couldn’t be calmed for a long while.

It seems this man really is that person; if so, there’s no need to worry about the Lord’s comfort, and the most fortunate thing in his life is following the Lord...

At this moment, Lan Song felt unprecedented gratitude internally, and of course, he was more thankful to Feng Jingtian in his heart; without the original feud, he wouldn’t have his current loyalty, and he wouldn’t become the subordinate of such a strong figure.

With this man by his side, he could climb to the top effortlessly, and in the whole of hell, who would dare to bully him?

Thinking of this, Lan Song couldn’t help but show delight; he was about to make small talk with Ye Wuchen, but before the words could leave his mouth, he sensed a gust of wind, and after regaining his senses, the two people, one big and one small, had already vanished...

"Master Lan Song, do you think this man is..."

An elder in Qing Yi walked up behind Lan Song, asking with a peculiar expression. Originally, he didn’t take Lan Song seriously, but now he had no choice but to humble himself...

Moreover, the man with formidable strength obviously knew Mu Ruyue...

So even though Lan Song’s strength was inferior to his, he still had to curry favor with this lad.

Lan Song smiled faintly: "Elder Qing Xuan, do you think anyone other than the one in the Imperial City could possess such tremendous strength? And who in all of hell doesn’t know that the man always wears a mask, and no one has ever seen his true face, so I, Lan Song, can vouch with my life; he is absolutely the one from the Imperial City..."

Hiss!

Everyone took a deep, cold breath.

That person had always been mysterious and unfathomable, yet they didn’t expect in their lifetime to see him.

For this reason, this life is already enough...

"Hahaha! Master Lan Song is truly fortunate, to have a connection with that one, I reckon even Great Commander Sun Yao wouldn’t dare touch Master Lan Song even slightly."

The elder named Qing Xuan laughed heartily twice.

Though they didn’t know what Mu Ruyue’s relationship with that man was, from the way he addressed her, they could tell it was unusual...

If it is as they think, it might cause a disturbance in the whole Imperial City.

Especially since they’ve heard that the genius, whom the world finds stunning, the Prince, has long been infatuated with the one seated high above, and Great Commander Sun Yao is also the Prince’s subordinate...

Therefore, in the coming days, there will be a grand spectacle in the Imperial City...

...

Imperial City.

Mu Ruyue looked at the long queue outside the city gate, her brow furrowed slightly, and she said calmly: "So many people outside the Imperial City, I wonder what has happened recently..."
