Chris didn't want to waste any more time and stared intently at Su Qing.
Su Qing frowned slightly, pondered briefly, then shook her head, her expression becoming serious: "I haven't decided yet!"
Both were at the Glorious level of combat power, and the difference in their strength was not significant. He could suppress that woman, but he simply couldn't defeat or even kill her.
We can only try other methods, such as improving ourselves, weakening our enemies, or of course, relying on external forces.
But generally speaking, there are only these three methods.
However, at present, it is very difficult for Su Qing to improve his strength, and there is no suitable external force to rely on. He can only try to weaken his enemies.
At first, he considered poisoning her, but the woman was very cautious and never ate anything casually, so he couldn't find a place to poison her.
Unless Chris eats the poison first, and then they exchange saliva...
Chris was very resistant to the proposal at the time.
Chris's face darkened. "You haven't even thought it through yet, and you're already asking me to sacrifice my body? You're really something else!"
Noticing the change in his expression, Su Qing coughed lightly: "Your efforts are useful, and very useful. Don't underestimate yourself."
Chris snorted and then said, "How about I send a message back to my family and ask them to send experts to assist us?"
For one dragon and one man to conquer a city with a glorious stronghold is nothing short of wishful thinking, so he decided to seek outside help.
"Need not!"
Su Qing flatly refused. If Gustavo sent people, it would be hard to say whether the city would still be his after he took over this disaster-stricken city.
Besides, he wasn't without other means.
A thought flashed through his mind: it seemed he needed to find a way to force this female city lord out of the city.
After all, a battle that breaks out in the city, even just the aftershocks, could destroy the city.
But this is also a big problem, since this woman has hardly ever left the city since she became the city lord.
However, this is actually easy for Su Qing to solve, but it requires waiting for Chris and the female city lord to take their relationship to the next level.
Several more days passed!
"asshole!"
Curses and the sounds of things being smashed came from inside the room, and the many slaves in the courtyard were also dejected.
The city lord has been showing a lot of favor to that newcomer lately, and their master has clearly fallen out of favor.
What proves this is that their master has not been summoned to serve them in bed for a week.
Of the three hundred concubines in the city lord's mansion, this female city lord dotes on only Chris.
What shocked Su Qing was that Chris had managed to keep his innocence all this time. Although he was often whipped, his chastity had indeed been preserved.
In addition, Su Qing finally found an opportunity to enter the secret dungeon beneath the city lord's mansion.
The woman who was chained up, who looked eight or nine parts like the female city lord, but appeared younger.
Upon entering the dungeon, the layout is simple and straightforward: a concise tunnel leads directly to the cell in front of you, leaving no blind spots.
A woman, dressed in rags and with disheveled hair, was bound by chains. Without raising her head, she let out a cold laugh: "Here we go again? Don't be delusional. How could I possibly give my father's last treasure to a wicked woman like you?"
"What treasure?"
Su Qing asked curiously, causing the woman to tremble. She turned her head in surprise, tucking a few strands of hair behind her ear to reveal a dirty face. As if she had seen some strange creature, she looked Su Qing up and down, her mouth splitting into a strange smile: "Man, hehe!"
Su Qing: "...?"
After a strange laugh, the woman seemed to realize what had happened and stared intently at Su Qing: "How did you get in?"
“That woman wouldn’t allow anyone else to see me, so you sneaked in. That means you must have a grudge against that woman…”
The girl muttered to herself as if making a deduction, and somehow guessed a lot of information. Suddenly, her eyes flashed with golden light: "Let me out, and I can help you kill this woman!"
Su Qing looked at her strangely: "Before you make your request, shouldn't you show some sincerity, such as telling me your identity!"
The woman was very straightforward: "My name is Lidodo, the daughter of the former city lord. The current city lord is my biological mother."
I initially thought it was a case of sisters killing each other, but it turned out to be a story of a loving mother and filial daughter.
Seeing the woman's cooperation, Su Qing, who had initially thought she would have to spend more time explaining, felt a little uncomfortable and continued to ask, "Why did your mother trap you here? And what is this treasure you just mentioned?"
Su Qing wasn't interested in why the girl was trapped here; what truly interested him was the treasure mentioned.
The girl replied calmly, "That woman is not fit to be a wife or a mother."
Her motives for marrying my father were impure from the start.
My father only realized the woman's ill intentions shortly before his death, so he hid his most precious treasure and left it to me.
"Only I know the location where the treasure is buried. That woman wanted to find out about the treasure from me, but I was unwilling to tell her."
"Furthermore, my father's death made me furious, and I hated this woman very much, so I went against her in every way."
Furthermore, as the daughter of the city lord, I was also an obstacle to her becoming the city lord. She used the news of my illness and death to imprison me here, where I have been imprisoned for over ten years.
