"Brother Long, there's one more thing. The Beauty Pills and other Elixirs you refined have caused great dissatisfaction within the Pill Alliance, so you must be extremely careful of them making trouble for you."
"I understand."
Long Ao chatted with Liu Mu for a little while longer before getting up to leave.
Not far away, in a well-hidden spot behind the lotus pond, Liu Ji watched the figure disappear into the distance, her eyes cold and her face a mask of malice.
"Hmph. I'll make you understand the consequences of provoking me."
As it turned out, Liu Ji had received word the moment Long Ao entered the City Lord's Mansion. She had immediately spread the news, and the first person she notified was Long Ao's mortal enemy, Ye Hao.
After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Long Ao didn't parade openly through Thundercloud City. Instead, he put on a simple disguise, found a modest inn, and settled in for the time being.
The night passed without incident.
