At the city gate, after the general finished reprimanding the soldiers' captain, he showed an extremely fawning expression.
He leaned close to Ying Youwei and asked with concern, "Youwei, you've worked hard this time. Why didn't you tell me when you went to the Heavenly Nether Domain to restock? I would have sent a team to protect you."
"No need."
Ying Youwei said coldly.
Her eyes were filled with disgust.
The general was named Zhuo Yang, nephew of the City Lord of Black Tiger City, and the army general of the city. Although he was over fifty years old, his cultivation was successful, reaching the ninth level of Tongyou Realm, keeping his appearance youthful.
Everyone in Black Tiger City knew that General Zhuo Yang had been pursuing Ying Youwei of the Ying Family.
The Ying Family was also inclined to have Ying Youwei marry Zhuo Yang, which would solidify their status in Black Tiger City. Maintaining good relations with the City Lord was paramount.
