Chapter 176 - 140: Kings, Dukes, Generals, and Ministers
A seemingly inconspicuous old servant turned out to be a Qi Cultivation Expert, indicating that the City Lord of Sanyang City might not be as straightforward as he appeared on the surface. Probably even Master Zhao Ge underestimated the City Lord of Sanyang City, otherwise, Zhao Ge would have certainly informed Li Yi that there were at least two Qi Cultivation Experts in the City Lord Mansion.
It showed that the City Lord had fooled everyone. If Li Yi had not caused upheaval in Sanyang City today, it was likely that the City Lord would not have exposed himself.
Sending an old servant, who was a Qi Cultivation Expert, to greet Li Yi could also be a display of strength.
"Since the City Lord of Sanyang City has invited me so courteously as a guest, then I will give you the face to see what you really mean."
