“The alliance leader doesn’t have time today. Please return to the inn and wait.”
This was already the third day he was facing Saxton’s expressionless attendant.
“I want to see the alliance leader of Saxton.”
Allie was finally furious, and Lei Luo did not stop her. He just watched coldly from the side.
“The alliance leader doesn’t have time today. Please return to the inn and wait.”
Saxton’s attendant’s expression was still as apathetic as before.
Allie no longer spoke to him. She took a step forward and was about to barge into Saxton’s room.
When the attendant saw that she was going to barge in, he gave the guards a look. Very quickly, more than a dozen people surrounded her.
“Bastards, you are all trained by our East God. Who dares to stop me?”
Allie glared at these people and scolded loudly.
Back when the east god was strong, Saxton was only a small leader and had a good relationship with the East God. He had even asked the East God to help them train their internal guards.
Allie had even taught them a lesson back then. That was why Allie was confident enough when she had said this.
After Allie spoke, a few of the internal guards looked embarrassed. However, this did not stop them from continuing their mission.
“Forget it, let’s go.”
At this moment, Lei Luo finally spoke.
“But…”
Allie was unwilling.
“Let’s go.”
As Lei Luo spoke, he turned around. Seeing that Lei Luo had left, Allie could only follow him.
Before she left, she glared at the guards. “Snobbish.”
Allie caught up and said to Lei Luo, “It’s already been three days. Are we going to keep wasting time like this?”
“I don’t think we’ll be able to see Saxton again,” Lei Luo said with a cold expression.
“Why? Our plan is obviously beneficial to them. If there are benefits, why don’t we do it?” Allie asked in confusion.
“There are only two possibilities. First, although the benefits are great, the disadvantages are even greater. Second, if we give up on this benefit, we can get even greater benefits.”
Lei Luo’s words made Allie feel a little dizzy.
Lei Luo turned around and looked at Allie, asking, “Can’t you speak in a simple and easy-to-understand manner?”
“Before we came, we had already passed our plan to him. He was the one who asked us to come, but when we came, we were not seen. One or two days is still acceptable, but he blocked our way for three days in a row, and it was so ugly. Don’t you think there’s something fishy about this?”
“Actually, I also think there’s something wrong, but what exactly is wrong?” Allie asked.
Lei Luo did not answer Allie. A terrifying scene began to appear in his mind, which made him shudder.
“No, it can’t be like this.”
Lei Luo shook his head hard, trying to stop himself from thinking about it.
“What are you thinking?” Allie asked in confusion.
“Nothing,” Lei Luo said and looked at Allie. “We’re going back now.”
“Now?” Allie widened her eyes in surprise. “We haven’t seen Saxton yet. Why are we going back?”
“Not for now. If Saxton is really interested, he will contact us again.”
“Oh, okay. Let’s go back to the hotel to pack up.”
“No need.” Lei Luo waved his hand. “We’ll go straight to the port and leave through the civilian port.”
“Why?”
“Don’t ask why. Let’s do it first. Hurry.”
The gloomy thoughts in Lei Luo’s mind became clearer, and he felt a little confused.
Seeing that Lei Luo seemed a little impatient, Allie did not ask any more questions and just followed Lei Luo’s instructions.
The two of them got into the carriage.
Allie looked at Lei Luo and saw that his head was leaning against the window of the carriage. His right hand was unconsciously clenching and then letting go, so she asked, “What’s wrong with you? Why do you seem a little uneasy?”
“How many of the old troops of the East God on the Holy City of Beauty are you familiar with?” Lei Luo asked.
“UH…Well, I wasn’t in charge of military affairs in the past, so I’m not familiar with the commanders. So…”
Lei Luo looked at Allie and asked, “So, you don’t know these people?”
“Well…you can say that.”
Allie admitted it somewhat embarrassedly.
“Then how did you determine that they were the old troops of East God?” Lei Luo asked.
“In the past, we would all request to see the family emblem of East God. But later, Casa said that it was too long, and many people had lost or pawned the family emblem. I thought it made sense. The family emblem of East God used to be a symbol of glory, but after all, we had been in decline for too long, so it was reasonable for us to lose it. So, we later canceled this identification method.”
“When did this happen?” Lei Luo’s eyes widened.
“It happened on the second day after we took over the Holy City of Beauty.”
“How stupid. How could a person who would lose or pawn his emblem be a loyal old subordinate of the East God? How could you believe such nonsense?”
Lei Luo shook his head in disbelief. As he spoke, he began to become a little impetuous.
“Oh right…” Allie touched her cheek.
“But…I didn’t think too much back then. We were really short-handed, so…since Casa said so, I also…”
“Casa, Casa, you’re the spiritual leader of the old troops of East God. Why don’t you have any ideas?”
Lei Luo was already feeling a little disappointed. “Even if you don’t have any ideas, why don’t you ask for my opinion?”
After being criticized by Lei Luo for a few times, Allie seemed to have lost her temper. “The question is, when have you ever cared about this?”
Lei Luo was rendered speechless by Allie’s words.
After hesitating for a long time, he slowly closed his eyes, leaned his head against the carriage, and closed his eyes to rest.
“I say, what’s going on with you? Why did you suddenly…”
Lei Luo stretched out his hand and stopped Ali’s words.
“Don’t say anything now. Let’s return to the Holy City of Beauty first.”
In Ulysses, Ulysses was reading in the study when Strachey suddenly came to the door. “Your Highness.”
Ulysses looked up and saw Strachey. He hurriedly said, “Teacher, come in.”
After Strachey came in, Ulysses asked, “Teacher, what’s the matter?”
“It’s Saxton from the Union of Immortal and Economic Cooperation. He said that he had a face-to-face meeting with Lei Luo. The two of them had a very pleasant conversation, but he wants to make sure that we are really supporting them.”
“Of course, tell him that we are supporting Lei Luo,” Ulysses said without hesitation.
Strachey nodded and replied, “Yes.”
