Chapter 1111: The Battle Within Mount Dajiao! The Woman with a Child!
After Qian Hailong left, the follow-up cleanup work left behind in Black Tiger City was handled by Ma Hang, the captain of the Southeast Military Department's Emergency Brigade.
Qian Hailong also knew that Su Yang definitely wouldn't like this kind of miscellaneous work, so he wouldn't assign it to him.
Taking Liu Mengyun and Xia Na with him, Su Yang teleported back to the City Lord's office in Mount Dajiao.
The office was still fairly clean inside, not much dust,
Pushing open the window, Su Yang saw that familiar coastline and caught the scent of the sea breeze.
Liu Mengyun pushed open the office door, and Su Yang heard Fang Jing's voice.
"Deputy Officer Liu, you're back?"
"I'm back!"
"Then how's the war going? About how long will it last? Is the City Lord my lord doing well?"
"We won!" Liu Mengyun said casually. "The City Lord my lord is back, he's in the office right now."
"What? We won?"
"Yes, we won!"
"It probably... didn't last that long, did it?"
Fang Jing remembered that Liu Mengyun hadn't been gone that long.
"The main decisive battle lasted about a day!"
Fang Jing said in surprise, "How is that possible? Every time a Beast Sovereign appeared before, it took at least several months to fight, right? I've heard Beast Sovereigns are terrifying—every time they appear, many Generals and powerhouses die..."
"Nothing is impossible. The General my lord killed the Beast Sovereign, and the war ended!" Liu Mengyun said. "Now report to me on what's been happening in Mount Dajiao recently!"
"..."
Su Yang released Mo Yi and Sister Xue Li, then swiveled his office chair over to the window, propped his legs up on the window frame, and leisurely blew in the sea breeze, gazing at the long coastline outside and the white clouds floating in the sky, feeling quite content.
Only... it was missing a cup of tea.
Just at that moment, Sister Xue Li brought Su Yang a glass of fruit juice.
Fruit juice?
Fruit juice isn't bad either!
He took a sip of the fruit juice—it was slightly sweet, and after swallowing, the fragrance lingered in his mouth.
A gentle stream of energy slowly flowed through his entire body, leaving him relaxed in body and mind.
Su Yang felt that this was how life was supposed to be.
If not forced by circumstances, who wouldn't want to enjoy life properly?
Five minutes later, Mount Dajiao's Deputy City Lord Feng came running over and asked Su Yang about the war. Su Yang briefly told him that the war was over.
Deputy City Lord Feng's expression was quite a sight!
About an hour later, Mount Dajiao's Treasure Pavilion shop owner Baicang and Xi Yao also hurried over to visit Su Yang.
The Treasure Pavilion's intelligence was very well-informed, but Su Yang didn't mind.
During the month he and Liu Mengyun were away, it was thanks to Baicang helping to defend Mount Dajiao.
After some polite small talk, they also probed Su Yang for updates on the progress of the Beast Sovereign war.
Ever since the news of the Beast Sovereign Hurricane Roaring Cloud Tiger's emergence spread, the entire Southeast had been shaken. As the Southeast's largest faction second only to the Southeast Military Department, the Treasure Pavilion also wanted to know the war's developments in order to prepare accordingly.
These things would spread to the Zaowandou Society sooner or later anyway, so Su Yang picked out some matters that didn't involve classified information and told Baicang and Xi Yao.
When Baicang and Xi Yao walked out of the City Lord's residence, they were still immersed in shock.
The news Su Yang had told them was simply too staggering.
The Beast Sovereign that had ravaged the Southeast forty years ago and caused the Federation tremendous losses had lain low for forty years, grown even stronger, gathered a million fierce beasts, and then, the moment it burst out of the Black Tiger Mountain Range, in its very first great battle, it was slaughtered by Su Yang!
Moreover, both Su Yang and Liu Mengyun had broken through to the Imperial level, becoming the Federation's second and third Imperial-level Beast Tamers.
Xi Yao murmured, "What percentage of General Su's news do you think is true?"
"A hundred percent true!" Baicang said in a low voice. "General Su wouldn't joke with us, and he doesn't like to brag. Whether it's true or not, we just need to inquire a little and we'll know!"
"I never expected General Su to have broken through to the Imperial level! And Liu Mengyun too!" Xi Yao said with a bitter tone. "I never thought Liu Mengyun could break through to the Imperial level. In the past, although her talent was excellent, it wasn't to the point of being this outrageous!"
"Seeing Liu Long really gave birth to a good daughter!"
"Indeed!" Xi Yao sighed. "What a pity Liu Mengyun left the Treasure Pavilion. Otherwise, our Treasure Pavilion would have had an Imperial-level supreme powerhouse!"
"Don't overthink it—Liu Mengyun won't come back!" Baicang said. "It was us who drove her away back then. Given how much the Federation values her now, and her relationship with Su Yang, she could never come back!"
"Fortunately Liao Yuankai didn't challenge General Su to a duel..." Xi Yao suddenly said. "Otherwise, he definitely would have gotten beaten badly!"
At that time, with the Treasure Pavilion's help, Liao Yuankai had subdued several excellent King-level pet beasts and restored his combat power.
Originally he had wanted to challenge Su Yang again and wipe out his previous disgrace.
But just at that moment, the news of Su Yang single-handedly defeating the Island Nation came back...
And then Liao Yuankai was talked out of it by the Treasure Pavilion's higher-ups.
At that time, Su Yang's combat power was already somewhat unbelievable.
But now, it's even more outrageous!
Baicang also nodded: "Right, Liao Yuankai probably won't be able to avenge himself in this lifetime!"
