Chapter 375 - 130 Discipline
After sending off Qing Yuechu, the raven landed beside Lu Hong.
"Your Excellency Champion Marquess, the master is waiting for you." The raven spoke gently to the young man who had saved his life; having lived for many years, he owed Duke Nuoshan a favor and now owed one to Lu Hong as well. However, the raven was quite willing to owe him for saving his life and would accept any form of repayment in the future.
"Is it urgent?" Lu Hong hadn’t expected the raven to come find him and quickly asked, "Has there been an issue with the seal?"
The raven shook his head: "Not at all, it’s just that your recent actions have caused quite a stir. Though Duke Nuoshan handled it aptly, it still gave him quite a headache."
"Are they going to drag me back for a lecture?" Lu Hong had a strange expression. Ever since he had sealed Bai Ling, he had been living in Nuoshan’s mansion. The more they met, the deeper their relationship became.
After nearly three months of interaction, Lu Hong had almost come to regard him as his own grandfather, and Nuoshan treated Lu Hong like a beloved grandson.
Thinking of being scolded upon his return, Lu Hong quickly shook his head, "Uh, I still have stuff to deal with, Lord Raven. Please go back first and tell the Duke that I’ll return after I’m done..."
Before he could finish, the raven, as if expecting it, placed a hand on Lu Hong’s shoulder and exerted a gentle force. Without caring whether Lu Hong agreed, he turned into a streak of light and whisked Lu Hong away.
Less than forty minutes later, Lu Hong landed on the ground from high-speed flight under the raven’s deliberate protection. Though he felt no discomfort, lifting his eyes only brought him face to face with Nuoshan’s angry expression—there was no escaping what was to come.
"You know to come back?!" Nuoshan heavily stamped his cane several times.
