A new problem arose before the old problem was solved. Just before, they were having some problems with the special envoy, and now unexpectedly a difficult person emerged. They just didn’t know why Ouyang Huanyu would suddenly come to visit.
"Forget it, I'll go meet him. I don't believe that he can do anything while he’s in my territory.” It wasn’t her style to hide anyway.
[Annoying Sky: Says the effing thief.]
"Shall we go with you?" Qi Xia asked.
Shen Yanxiao shook her head.
"This is my Rising Sun City’s matter, I don't want the Long Xuan Empire to see that some of their greatest citizens are here.” The five great clans were too eye-catching; exposing themselves too much was not a great option.
“Then be careful; if anything happens, just summon Vermillion Bird out. As far as I know, Ouyang Huanyu’s magical beast is merely a high-level magical beast. That means as long as Vermillion Bird is around, he can’t touch you.” Tang Nazhi couldn’t help but feel restless and could just repeatedly warn her.
"I know." Shen Yanxiao smiled. The five animals soon became like her nannies, giving her high attentiveness and care and at the same time did things in harmony.
"Vicious Wolf, take me to him." Shen Yanxiao took a deep breath. What she was most curious about was the reason why Ouyang Huanyu would appear here.
Through the clean streets, Shen Yanxiao saw an elderly man wearing a white outfit. It was hard to hate Ouyang Huanyu’s innate temperament. At his side, the mercenaries of the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps were talking to him. From the looks of it, the mercenaries seemed to respect Ouyang Huanyu.
Unfortunately, no matter how polite and well-mannered Ouyang Huanyu acted, in Shen Yanxiao’s eyes, he was a very cunning old fox.
“Dean Ouyang, I haven’t seen you for a long time. How are you?” Shen Yanxiao pushed down her disgust, and said gently and leisurely in a soft voice.

Ouyang Huanyu turned slightly and looked at Shen Yanxiao before smiling. His gentle appearance made him looked like an amiable old man.
"Everything is fine."
“I do not know why Dean Ouyang Huanyu came to a far away place like this? The Barren Land is a dangerous place and is not really a good place.” Shen Yanxiao smiled and said, her disgust wasn’t noticeable and instead, she looked as if she had full of respect for her teacher. It was as if she was a good student meeting her former mentor.
Ouyang Huanyu smiled and said, "This is not a good place to talk. I don't know if I can talk to the City Lord alone. Truth to tell, I was entrusted to come here by someone.”
Shen Yanxiao looked distracted for a while but immediately returned to normal. According to Ouyang Huanyu, he was entrusted to come here on someone’s order? Could it be Yun Qi?
Shen Yanxiao thought for a bit before he nodded and said, “Then I asked the dean to follow me to my residence.”
"Okay."
After going inside the City Hall, Shen Yanxiao made everyone retreat, leaving only her and Ouyang Huanyu alone in the main hall.
Ouyang Huanyu sat in a brand-new chair, slowly looking across the extremely few items in the room. He had to say that Shen Yanxiao’s City Hall was just an empty shelf. Although the style may be imposing on the outside, the quality of the furnitures wasn’t even that great.
The whole main hall had several chairs and small tables. These were all Yang Xi’s work. They were handmade using the materials and trees found in the Barren Land.
Compared with the outward scale, everything inside this place was slightly shabby.
Ouyang Huanyu fixed himself for a while before looking back. His gentle gaze looked at Shen Yanxiao, "The Long Xuan Empire has experienced a lot of defeats in the Barren Land. Today, for you to successfully accomplish rebuilding The Rising Sun City at such a scale is indeed commendable. However, this would be a tiring job for you, child. You will later on carry a lot of things on your shoulders and soon, you may have a hard time living in The Rising Sun City.”
