Chapter 135: Li Dong, Marquis Of Lanling

Tim was a famous dwarf blacksmith who often embedded magic cores into weapons to increase their power.

Level seven magic crystal cores can only be found on level seven magic beasts, which are equivalent in strength to an Earth-grade warrior. He had never seen a level seven magic crystal core in his life.

It could be said that the gift Qi Bei casually took out was worth millions of gold coins.

Lord, this this is too valuable, Iron Head scratched his head.

Nonsense, how dare you refuse a gift that I, your Lord, have given you? Objects are lifeless, but you are my right-hand man. This little thing is nothing, accept it, Qi Bei shouted.

Yes, Lord, Iron Head was extremely excited and did not dare to refuse any further. He carefully took the gift.

Many people at the scene looked at Iron Head with extreme shock and envy, and even Tim was elated. It seemed that this son-in-law was really important to the City Lord. The Lords casually-given gifts were worth millions of gold coins.

The eyes of the military officers also showed a burning light. With the Lords appreciation, they had a bright future. As long as they gained the Lords favor, they could soar to new heights.

Well, do as you wish now, dont mind me. Im just here for a drink, Qi Bei laughed.

He really did have a drink and then left. His identity was here. If he stayed for too long, it would only make all the guests feel uncomfortable

At the small lake by the foot of the mountains near West Hill City.

At this moment, the ice and snow had already melted, and the gentle moonlight was pouring down, shining and reflecting off the ripples off the lake.

A pebble suddenly flew into the lake, splashing a small water flower, and the moon reflected in the water became blurry.

Murong Xingchen sat in a wheelchair, looking at the moonlight scattered in the lake, her gaze seemed to be hazy. As the water was about to become calm, she flicked her finger slightly, and another pebble flew into the lake, creating ripples. It was as if she didnt want the silver moon in the lake to gather.

Just as she was about to throw another pebble, a huge boulder suddenly fell from the sky and crashed into the lake, splashing a huge water wave.

Murong Xingchen instantly looked up, but there was no one around.

As the lake gradually calmed down, a warm smile suddenly reflected in the center.

Sure enough, Qi Beis figure floated and stood in the center of the lake.

Qi Bei. Murong Xingchen was full of surprise.

Missed me? Qi Bei flashed and came to her side, directly picking her up. Then he sat on the wheelchair and put her on his lap.

Yes. Murong Xingchen nodded and buried her head in his arms.

Qi Bei had been gone for three months. During these three months, Murong Xingchen, who had already opened her heart to Qi Bei, thought of him all the time. Her emotions of worry and anxiety were unprecedented, and she had never been concerned about her own body.

The two embraced each other quietly for a while. Suddenly, Murong Xingchen said in Qi Beis arms, Qi Bei, I wanted to tell you something. Me, Yan Ling, Ru Feng, and Piao Xue, are going back to the Elf Clan.

Huh? Qi Bei was surprised.

Some clan member came with an Elders order, claiming to have found a possible way to remove the curse poison in my body, Murong Xingchen said.

As long as Young Master tells me what to do, Ill do it. Li Dong said loyally, and then his eyes lit up. Young Master, why dont you let me take care of the entertainment in West Spirit City? As you know, besides eating, drinking, and having fun, I dont know anything else.

Qi Bei laughed and said, Alright, lets start with managing the gambling houses.

Li Dongs chubby face instantly fell, and he exaggeratedly said, Young Master, managing gambling houses requires a high level of expertise. How about letting me manage the girls or something?

If I let you manage it, wont you steal from the job? How about this, Ill set up an Entertainment Department. You can temporarily serve as the first department head. Qi Bei said with a smile.

The Entertainment Department? Isnt that just managing eating, drinking, and having fun? Li Dongs face was full of smiles.

You will be responsible for collecting information from various sources, categorizing and sorting it, and finding valuable information. Qi Bei said.

Li Dong squinted his eyes and immediately straightened his chest, saying, Young Master, you can rest assured that I will not let you down.

After Li Dong happily left, Qi Beis mouth showed a faint smile. He wanted to test Li Dongs ability. He had already noticed that although this person looked very mediocre and lascivious, he was very good at understanding peoples hearts and was very clear about all aspects of the matter. Perhaps letting him be responsible for the upcoming intelligence network was not a bad choice, but he needed to try it out for a while first.

At this time, Du Shou ran in and said, Lord, in the past three months, not only has he come to see you, but also the Marquis of Lanling from the Golden Leaf Empire has been waiting for a long time. He did not stay at the City Lords Mansion, but instead stayed at a nearby restaurant.

The Marquis of Lanling? Hes here too?

Send someone to bring him here. Qi Bei said calmly.

Soon, Kasef, the effeminate Marquis of Lanling arrived at the City Lords Mansion.

Master. Kasef bowed.

Qi Bei sat in his chair, with his legs crossed, staring at Kasef for a while before saying lightly, Did Han Mo send you?

Kasef was surprised. How did Qi Bei know?

Yes, Master. During this period of time, in order to get more information about the royal family, I have used some small means to show my goodwill to Emperor Han Mo. Now I am regarded as a member of the royal power. The Marquis of Lanling said.

Han Mo is not the kind of person who easily trusts others. Perhaps he sent you here to test you. Qi Bei said.

Now, within the Golden Leaf Empire, the conflict between the royal family and the noble families is becoming increasingly apparent. Even if Emperor Han Mo wants to win over the Marquis of Lanling, he is unlikely to trust him so easily. Who knows if he has been won over by the Nord family?

I was thinking the same thing, Kasef replied.

So, why did he send you here? Qi Bei asked.

He wants to completely split you and the Nord family, and the best case scenario for him is to have you as his puppet, Kasef said.

Haha, good plan. What did he offer? Qi Bei laughed and asked.

As long as he can get rid of the Nord family, he can offer the three northwestern provinces and support you in becoming king

Qi Bei just smiled faintly. Three provinces, Han Mo was indeed making a big offer.

However, if imperial power collapsed and the Nord family took over, the entire Golden Leaf Empire would be under their control.

Of course, it was also possible that the Nord family would be uprooted and completely destroyed.
