Chapter 967

A powerful beast-tamer could indeed take several wives.

But Qian Hailong figured that, given Sovereign Jiazi's pride, she would not be willing to share a man with another woman!

If Su Yang had a wife, it would not only remove any possibility between Sovereign Jiazi and Su Yang, but also put another woman on guard against Sovereign Jiazi, and solve Su Yang's personal problem to boot — three birds with one stone!

"Haha! Isn't this a bit too early?"

"Early? Early how?" Qian Hailong shook his head and said, "My youngest son already had two kids when he was eighteen. You're already considered late!"

"Let me think it over?"

"Of course!" Qian Hailong thought for a moment, then pointed at himself with a grin. "If you can't find a suitable one, you can come to me for help. I can introduce someone to you — the kind where I don't charge an introduction fee… hahaha!"

Qian Hailong felt Liu Mengyun was not bad.

But he kept his mouth shut about it.

If Su Yang truly liked her, Su Yang himself would know what to do.

Su Yang laughed a little awkwardly: "Then I'll thank General Qian first!"

Seeing Su Yang's awkward look, Qian Hailong suddenly regained a sliver of confidence!

At least in certain respects, Su Yang was currently no match for him!

Ahem!

The moment Su Yang entered the Zhaodaisuo Sect, he saw four young officers sitting on a sofa to the left of the lobby, talking loudly and boasting about the dangers of hunting a Gold-tier fierce beast.

Su Yang glanced at them, feeling they looked vaguely familiar.

As if he had seen them somewhere before.

"City Lord Su!"

Just then, Su Yang heard Sovereign Jiazi's voice.

She was sitting on a sofa against the wall on the right side of the lobby.

Seeing Su Yang, she stood up at once and waved him over.

The moment the four young officers saw Su Yang, they glanced at Sovereign Jiazi, then scurried off like mice spotting a cat!

Su Yang couldn't shake the feeling that they were being sneaky, as if they were up to some shady business.

He frowned and asked: "Jiazi, what's the deal with those four?"

"They came on to me, and when I said I was waiting for someone, they moved to sit across from me!" Sovereign Jiazi shrugged helplessly. "I've been waiting here for over an hour, and they've been blowing hot air for over an hour — they sure have a lot of stories…"

"They probably have designs on you, but they likely don't know your identity!"

Telling stories about hunting a Gold-tier fierce beast in front of Sovereign Jiazi… Su Yang felt embarrassed on their behalf.

If they wanted to catch Sovereign Jiazi's attention, shouldn't they at least brag about hunting an Emperor-tier fierce beast?

"How did it go?"

"The meeting passed. The Southeast Military Department will report my request, and General Qian and the others will help me too!"

"Mm!"

"Then for now, just stay in Zhanghai City. It'll be at least half a month before we get a reply."

"What about you?"

"Me?" Su Yang thought for a moment and said, "I might have to head back to Mount Dajiao City, and also go into the wilderness to hunt fierce beasts and boost my combat power!"

It had been almost a month, and Su Yang still hadn't returned to Mount Dajiao City.

If he didn't go back soon, people might have already forgotten about their city lord.

"Can you take me along to see Mount Dajiao City?" Sovereign Jiazi suggested. "If you leave me behind in Zhanghai City, I might not even be able to get out of the city."

"Then I'll go let General Qian know!"

Anyway, Sovereign Jiazi would be following him from now on, so taking her along to Mount Dajiao City to have a look wasn't a big problem.

The four young officers bolted out of the Zhaodaisuo Sect, sprinted five blocks without stopping, and only dared to pause for big, gasping breaths once they'd ducked into the military camp to hide!

"If only we'd left the moment she turned us down!" one young officer panted, full of regret. "Who would've thought that gorgeous woman was actually waiting for City Lord Su!"

"How could we have known! She never said it was City Lord Su!"

"City Lord Su just glanced at me and nearly scared me out of my skin!"

"Speaking of which, that woman — doesn't she look like Liu Mengyun?"

"Definitely not. I've seen Liu Mengyun before — unforgettable. That woman is absolutely not Liu Mengyun!"

"Truly worthy of City Lord Su!"

"I curse his harem to burn down!"

"Same here!"

"…"

The moment Su Yang brought up the idea of taking Sovereign Jiazi back to Mount Dajiao City to Qian Hailong, Qian Hailong agreed right away.

"She's your captive anyway — do as you see fit!"

With Su Yang taking Sovereign Jiazi away, Qian Hailong was actually relieved.

Keeping Sovereign Jiazi inside Zhanghai City would have required him to send strong cultivators to watch her — a total waste of combat power!

At the entrance of the Zhaodaisuo Sect, the two finished packing their luggage. Su Yang held out his hand to Sovereign Jiazi and said: "Grab my hand. I'll teleport us over — traveling the normal way is too much trouble!"

"Alright!" Sovereign Jiazi smiled and placed her hand in Su Yang's. "I've never tried teleportation before!"

Su Yang took Sovereign Jiazi's hand. Her hand was very soft, as if it had no bones at all.

"Doesn't that Uemura guy have a space-type pet beast?"

"He can only blink, not teleport — nowhere near as good as you."

"Here we go!"
