Chapter 968: Mount Dajiao City! The Meeting of Liu Mengyun, Xia Na, and Sovereign Jiazi

In the City Lord's office of Mount Dajiao City, two figures suddenly appeared.

Su Yang glanced around the office—it was very clean, spotless.

Through the window, the familiar coastline was visible.

He took a gentle breath and caught the scent of Liu Mengyun and Xia Na.

They had come into the office that morning to clean up.

Sovereign Jiazi curiously surveyed Su Yang's office—small, yes, but it felt quite nice.

Su Yang gently pushed open the door and saw Liu Mengyun, outside in the office, sprawled across the desk handling official business.

At that moment, Liu Mengyun seemed to sense Su Yang as well; she raised her head and saw him just then.

She called out with a hint of pleasant surprise, "City Lord, you've returned?"

"Yes!"

Come to think of it, it had been over a month since leaving Mount Dajiao City.

In that month-plus, quite a lot had happened.

"The Southeast Military Headquarters said General Qian sent you on a mission—did you complete it?"

"Of course I did!" Su Yang laughed. "So far, I haven't failed a single one!"

"Mm!"

Just then, Sovereign Jiazi also walked out of Su Yang's office.

The moment she saw Sovereign Jiazi, the smile in Liu Mengyun's eyes froze.

"City Lord, the lady beside you…"

"You can call her Sovereign Jiazi!" Su Yang introduced quietly. "She may be staying by my side from now on—you two can get to know each other!"

"Oh!"

Liu Mengyun cautiously sized up Sovereign Jiazi.

She found Sovereign Jiazi extremely beautiful, with a noble bearing and a touch of fragility—someone who immediately inspired tenderness.

Moreover, the other's strength seemed quite formidable!

"So you're Deputy Liu, I take it!" Sovereign Jiazi smiled. "City Lord Su has mentioned you to me—said you're a great beauty, gifted as a beast-tamer, outstanding in ability. Before coming, I thought he was just bragging…"

"He really said all that?"

Liu Mengyun stared at Sovereign Jiazi skeptically, then glanced at Su Yang.

She was delighted inside, yet somehow it didn't feel quite real.

"He didn't!" Sovereign Jiazi said. "But I could infer it from the way he spoke of you."

Su Yang was a bit speechless—he had no idea how Sovereign Jiazi had "inferred" that.
