434: Flee at the first sign of trouble

Qin Shi Lei turned and flew back to the city wall, looking down at the burly man still sitting on the ground.

The burly man immediately prostrated himself on the ground, begging for mercy, “My Lord, spare me! My Lord, spare me!”

“When you reincarnate in your next life, remember to keep your mouth clean.”

After Qin Shi Lei finished speaking, he waved his hand, releasing a bolt of lightning that instantly electrocuted the man into charcoal.

The moment the man uttered those insulting words, he was sentenced to death.

“Let’s go.”

Qin Shi Lei took Kong Qingshu’s left hand again and flew towards the Golden Winged Thunder Roc high in the sky.

Watching Qin Shi Lei and Kong Qingshu leave, the three Golden Experts on the ground finally dared to get up.

“Phew, at last, we’ve saved our lives!”

“city Lord, do you think we should spread the news of Qin An King’s appearance in our city?”

“You idiot! Aren’t you afraid Qin An King will blame us for leaking his news and come back to destroy us?”

“Right, right, right, we should just pretend nothing happened.”

The middle-aged city Lord even flew into mid-air and loudly commanded, “Everyone listen to me! No one is allowed to spread the news of Qin An King’s appearance here, or don’t blame me for being impolite.”

However, as soon as he finished speaking, someone suddenly reminded him, “city Lord, I don’t know which clumsy idiot has already spread the news of Qin An King’s appearance here, along with a photo.”

Hearing this, the middle-aged man felt his vision go dark and almost fell from mid-air.

One of the Golden Experts even flew to his side and quietly suggested, “city Lord, why don’t we run away now?”

While the three were discussing running away, the Pretty Country’s national chat channel completely erupted.

“What should we do? Are we going to live under the tyrannical rule of Qin An King from now on?”

“It’s all because some people just talked big, arrogantly saying that Qin An King couldn’t come to Pretty Country. Now they’re dumbfounded, aren’t they?”

“Don’t panic, didn’t that person say Qin An King only brought one woman? It’s impossible for just two people to conquer our Pretty Country, right?”

“To be fair, Qin An King alone is worth a thousand armies. If he really wants to be our Pretty Country’s president, who can resist, and who would dare to resist?”

“Are you stupid? Can’t we just feign compliance? Acknowledge their rule on the surface, but resist them in secret?”

“Qin An King’s cultivation is not only unparalleled, but he’s also incredibly handsome. It would be great if I could have a deep interaction with him.”

“Lustful fool, get lost!”

While many survivors in Pretty Country were trembling and discussing Qin Shi Lei, the Golden Experts in Pretty Country felt a great disaster was imminent, and most of them had the idea of temporarily hiding.

Qin Shi Lei had no idea that simply asking for directions had caused an eighteen-magnitude storm in Pretty Country.

At this moment, he had already arrived above Fulang City.

He flashed onto the city wall, “Is this Fulang City? Is Steve the city Lord of this city?”

“My...my...my Lord, this...this...this is indeed Fulang City, and Steve is our city Lord.”

The young guard who was asked trembled all over and stammered his reply.

Qin Shi Lei reached out and grabbed the guard, then flashed back to the Golden Winged Thunder Roc’s back.

“Lead the way!”

The man hadn’t even reacted before he found himself in mid-air, momentarily stunned.

Only after Qin Shi Lei impatiently glanced at him did he regain his senses and point forward, “Just keep flying straight.”

The Golden Winged Thunder Roc gently flapped its wings, transforming into a bolt of lightning and flying towards the center of the city.

“Qin Dage, it’s strange, why didn’t we hear them sound the alarm this time?”

Kong Qingshu asked with some confusion.

Qin Shi Lei turned to look at the guard beside him.

“I...I don’t know.” The guard quickly waved his hand.

Qin Shi Lei said indifferently, “It’s good that there’s no alarm, that sound is very harsh.”

As they spoke, they arrived above a grand and majestic palace complex.

With a thought, Qin Shi Lei summoned An Qian and Zhang Xiaoli from the Blessed Land.

It was a good opportunity for them to also enjoy the exotic scenery.

The group flew directly from mid-air to the front of the largest palace below.

“That’s strange, why did these guards run away without saying a word?”

An Qian asked with a puzzled expression.

“Exactly, they didn’t come forward to inquire, nor did they shout warnings, but they looked like they were fleeing for their lives.”

Zhang Xiaoli chimed in.

Qin Shi Lei also felt very confused.

As guards, upon suddenly seeing a group of unfamiliar faces descend from the sky, they should have come forward to inquire, not flee in such a desperate manner.

Those guards, only in the Silver Realm, couldn’t see through their cultivation at a glance, so there was no possibility of them fleeing out of fear.

Qin Shi Lei released the city guard he was holding, “Let’s go, let’s go inside and see.”

The four walked into the palace in front of them.

Upon stepping into the palace, Qin Shi Lei and the others were amazed by the magnificent and luxurious decorations inside.

The group admired the grand and splendid architecture as they slowly walked further into the palace.

“Who are you people? Who allowed you to come in?”

Suddenly, a cold voice sounded to their right.

“Perfect timing.” Qin Shi Lei turned to look at the newcomer.

A man in a suit, appearing to be a butler around fifty years old, walked over with a gloomy expression.

However, when he saw Qin Shi Lei, his face suddenly changed, and he instantly stopped in his tracks.

He patted his forehead, “Oh! The coffee I just brewed should be ready, I’d better go turn off the stove first.”

After speaking, he turned and tried to retreat towards the side door, as if he had suddenly forgotten about Qin Shi Lei and the others.

“Stop!” Qin Shi Lei commanded coldly.

At his command, the man in the suit stopped, his face full of bitterness.

“Come here and answer a few questions for me.”

The man in the suit walked over, his body trembling slightly.

Qin Shi Lei asked indifferently, “You recognized who I am, didn’t you? And all of you already knew I was coming, right?”

The man in the suit bowed deeply, “Greetings, Your Highness Qin An King. I did indeed recognize you, my Lord. Because someone on the chat channel mentioned your arrival in Pretty Country, most people in Pretty Country already know of your coming.”

An Qian chuckled, “So that’s it, no wonder they’re all hiding from us as if we were primordial beasts.”

The three women didn’t find this bad at all; instead, they found it quite interesting.

Qin Shi Lei spoke again, “Is your city Lord Steve here? Have him come out to see me.”

The man in the suit’s expression changed, and he hesitated before replying, “The city Lord and those Golden Experts have just left the city Lord’s Mansion. I don’t know where they went.”

“They ran away at the first sign of trouble?”

Qin Shi Lei’s face turned cold, but he thought to himself that once he caught the other party, he would definitely teach him a good lesson.
