"I heard you."

The city lord's expression was blank.

She was speechless.

In a short time, she was able to fight three people. In a sense, this little girl is indeed a talent.

"I'll go out and stop her right away." Li Xinyue was also at a loss.

She immediately prepared to go out and teach Li Shiyun a good lesson.

But the city lord stopped her.

"No need."

"Someone's coming to deal with her."

The city lord wore a faint smile.

Evil people need to be dealt with by other evil people.

This unruly little girl is so difficult to teach a lesson that even her own efforts might be ineffective. Only someone more ruthless and wicked than Li Shiyun could subdue her.

And in Hope City.

If we were to say who is the worst...

The city lord has a name in his heart, and I'm sure everyone knows who it is without me having to say it.

"Someone's taking care of her?" Li Xinyue was taken aback for a moment, then smiled gently and said, "City Lord, in Hope City, I think besides you, there's no one else who can be Xiaoyun's match, right?"

Speaking of which, she was quite confident.

In her region, no one could rival Li Shiyun. This child, whom she had picked up from a pile of extraordinary creatures, immediately surpassed everyone else once she awakened her extraordinary template.

It was precisely because of Li Shiyun's formidable strength, her exaggerated age, and her lack of awakened memories that she possessed such confidence, traveling thousands of miles to Hope City and recommending Li Shiyun to the city lord.

Li Shiyun may have some flaws in her personality, but her strong abilities and talent can make up for them.

As far as Hope City is concerned.

According to Li Xinyue's observation, apart from the city lord, there should be no one who can match Li Shiyun.

Therefore, she was very confident.

Is there anyone who can handle Li Shiyun?

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Suddenly, the noise outside the door subsided considerably, and after a moment it became completely silent.

Li Xinyue's confidence and pride vanished instantly, and she exclaimed in alarm, "Oh no, there's no more noise outside. The person who provoked Xiaoyun must have been injured by her. City Lord, I'm going out now. I hope that unlucky fellow isn't dead..."

As she spoke, she turned and walked towards the door.

What she feared was that Li Shiyun would kill someone in the city lord's mansion, which would make things much more complicated.

The city lord watched her leave, his heart unmoved.

The surveillance footage outside the door played in her mind in real time, giving her a clear picture of what was happening outside.

It can only be said that Li Xinyue's worries were completely unnecessary.

But Li Xinyue was unaware of what was happening outside. She hurried to the door, pushed it open, and immediately scolded Li Shiyun, "Xiaoyun, you're being silly again..."

However, she stopped before she could finish speaking.

"this……"

The sight outside the door startled her rosy, full lips, causing them to form a rounded "O" shape that lingered for a long time.

To outsiders, Li Shiyun, who was as ferocious and powerful as a ferocious beast, was now being subdued by a man.

Li Xinyue was completely bewildered.

The man outside the door was tall and imposing, with one hand gripping Li Shiyun's neck, like a tiger holding a kitten by the neck.

Li Shiyun's petite body was lifted off the ground, her body limp and her limbs hanging limply without any support. It seemed that she had let down all her guard, allowing the man's large hand to grab her neck and her body to be controlled by him.

The heavy greatsword was left aside.

Li Shiyun's weapon, which she regarded as her life, was simply discarded without her even glancing at it.

The little girl's face no longer held its former arrogance and ferocity; now, only the submissiveness and relaxation of a kitten remained...

'Did I see wrong...?'

Li Xinyue rubbed her eyes.

She suspected she was hallucinating.

'That's impossible!'

Li Shiyun was someone she brought back from the wilderness. This little girl, somehow, survived into the new era and miraculously survived in the wild, where there were many extraordinary creatures.

She didn't know what kind of personality Li Shiyun had before.

But after she brought Li Shiyun back to the human settlement, apart from her, Li Shiyun's godmother, Li Shiyun was extremely arrogant and irritable towards everyone else.

They take people's lives at the drop of a hat.

That's why she thought of bringing Li Shiyun to the city lord.

Besides the previous idea, this is another reason.

With her formidable strength and incredibly arrogant temperament, Li Shiyun was someone that, apart from the city lord, Li Xinyue couldn't think of anyone else who could properly guide her.

But now...

That gentle little girl, as docile as a kitten.

This gave rise to a strange thought in Li Xinyue's mind.

His own woman... could she have been possessed?

Of course, this idea is utterly absurd.

There is another, more plausible theory about Li Xinyue.

'This man…'

"He tamed Li Shiyun through sheer strength?"

Is that even possible?

Li Xinyue felt that no one could do it.

But the truth is right before our eyes...

"Lord of the city, what's going on with this little girl?"

At this moment, the man spoke, his voice startling Li Xinyue, who was nearly fainting from the shock. Coming to her senses, she immediately said, "Sir, I'm sorry, my daughter has a bit of a temper..."

She apologized first.

We should show respect to those who are strong.

This is a truth that everyone who survives in the apocalypse understands.

However, in the past, it was always others who expressed respect to Li Xinyue, but today, she has also met a man who can earn her respect.
