Her milky-white hair scattered as she moved, her combat boots stomping on the floor tiles of Su Cheng's bedroom.

"Executioner of the Blade, Guardian of the Inner City of Qingyue, Zhanlong, greets Your Excellency."

As the Valkyrie of Lady Gu Ai, she doesn't need to bow to anyone. This is the dignity that Xiao Ai gave her, and it's also a testament to her own worth.

Even if she doesn't bow, no one will say anything to her, and no one will dare to say anything to Lady Gu Ai.

"Lord Gu Ai asked me to pass on a message to you."

"Sister Heguang? What brings you here?" Li Shiyao blinked her big eyes as she looked at Heguang, who was dressed in full divine armor, standing tall and proud in front of Su Cheng.

He Guang didn't speak, put on his mask, and put aside all his emotions.

"Speak."

"Lord Gu Ai said: Those three Xiao Ai have taken care of things for you, and the suppression in the inner city is over. If you're not too busy lately, please help Xiao Ai finish up."

Su Cheng stretched his neck and thought for a moment: "Anything else?"

"Lord Gu Ai also said: Shi Yao is a member of the mansion."

He Guang tilted his head, his terrifying face, whose species was indistinguishable, paired with his golden eyes, making one's hair stand on end.

"You mean, when I'm teaching my disciples, I have to be mindful of what others think?"

He Guang gently placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, and said coldly, "First of all, this is not my meaning. These are Lord Gu Ai's original words. I dare not speculate on what they mean."

He pressed down slightly on the hilt of his sword and raised his right foot slightly: "Secondly, this is not a matter of meaning, but a military order for me. I don't need to elaborate on the code of conduct for the Blade of Execution; Your Excellency is certainly well aware of it."

Su Cheng sat in the chair, lit a cigarette, and looked at He Guang.

"Yes, I will absolutely obey Xiao Ai, and repay her with blood and teeth."

He Guang didn't continue speaking. Su Cheng had clearly understood what Lady Gu Ai meant; she had come to offer her support.

Even though this behavior is childish, calling her "Sister Liu" is truly well-deserved.

"He Guang, you seem to really want a chance to make a move, don't you?"

"Hehe, Your Excellency is joking." He Guang said, but he never let go of the hand that was lightly pressing on the hilt of the sword.

"To be honest, it's okay."

“Yeah, I’ve wanted to kill you for a long time now.” Tsuruko laughed, though it wasn’t visible through the mask.
