A dozen or so minutes later.
In the bright and spacious conference room, a man and a woman knelt before Hu Qi.
They were none other than Lu Shan and Lu Hong from the Rotten Leaf Gathering Place.
At this moment, their expressions held both awe and a faint trace of nervousness.
"...We heard you were here, Lord, so we came looking for you."
Lu Shan explained in a low voice, her head bowed and her expression one of utter respect. Yet, she secretly sized up Hu Qi out of the corner of her eye.
Hu Qi looked the same as ever.
With his current strength in this world, he no longer needed to use the Twisted Light to disguise his figure and appearance. This was why the pair had been able to find him.
With his white hair, blue eyes, and tall, burly frame, he didn't seem to have changed much at all.
However, the powerful, oppressive aura he exuded still made Lu Shan and Lu Hong's hearts pound and their palms sweat.
After listening to their explanation, Hu Qi understood the situation.
