Hai Feng City.
City Lord Lei Xuanyu and City Lord Wu Yan had not yet returned.
On one hand...
They had only just jointly reported yesterday, branding Gu Jinlai as a Demonic Cultist, solving a significant threat, and needed to celebrate.
On the other hand...
The Holy Dynasty would inevitably dispatch a Void Immortal Envoy to personally capture Gu Jinlai. Being the first to receive such envoy would certainly leave a good impression.
Of course, there was an even more crucial point.
The Demon Emperor Dragon Tears had only given them one day.
Should the Dragon Tears Demon Emperor suddenly decide to turn against them first, wouldn't they be trapped like animals in Hai Feng City?
Therefore, staying in Hai Feng City for a day or two, until the situation became clearer, was the foolproof method before returning to their respective cities.
...
At this moment, a night banquet was being held in the main hall of the City Lord Mansion.
