Chapter 797: The Mountain Giant and the Obsidian Giant Serpent! The Jinx!

Su Yang nodded: "That's fine—I'm just here to watch the show!"

He didn't want his presence to make Fang Jing throw an extravagant wedding.

That would be a significant expense.

These days, marriage usually just means inviting both sets of parents and siblings to a single meal.

Serving four or five tables is already considered quite prestigious.

Most commoners simply get a marriage certificate and call it done.

"By the way, is your father-in-law still gambling?"

"Thanks to Deputy Officer Liu, no casino in Mount Dajiao dares let him in!"

"Well, that's fine then!"

With Liu Mengyun's current prestige and status in Mount Dajiao, her words were as good as imperial edicts.

Back at the governor's mansion, Su Yang met Liu Mengyun.

"My lord!"

"Hmm!"

He really wanted to talk to Liu Mengyun.

But when face to face with her, he found himself unable to speak.

"Deputy Officer Liu… I'm truly glad you stayed!"

"If my lord had told me to leave back then, I probably would have left!"

This reply was pure Liu Mengyun.

"Hmm!"

Su Yang nodded.

"By the way, my lord, in one and a half months, the Southeast Military Department will host the Southeast Regional Talent Beast Tamer Competition," Liu Mengyun said. "Mount Dajiao must participate—we'll need to hold a selection contest to choose the city's top young beast tamers under twenty."

"There's that too?"

"Yes!"

"Then you handle it."

Liu Mengyun looked at Su Yang and asked: "My lord, do you want Mount Dajiao to win first place?"

Su Yang replied offhandedly: "Of course I do!"

For a city under his rule to produce outstanding young beast taming talents.

It would bring honor to him as governor.

And it counts as administrative achievement.

"Then shall I sign you up?"

"Ah!"

Su Yang opened his mouth in surprise—Liu Mengyun had suddenly sprung this on him.

"What's so surprising? My lord isn't even twenty yet—perfectly meets the Southeast Military Department's criteria!" Liu Mengyun said calmly. "If my lord competes, you'll surely claim the title of Southeast's Top Young Beast Tamer—then you'll hold both the Southeast and Southwest China titles for top young talent!"

Su Yang stared seriously at Liu Mengyun.

Liu Mengyun's expression remained serious.
