Wang Yao's main purpose in coming here was to spread the news of his arrival in the Shu tribe, so the more Wang Yao wanted to keep a low profile, the less Wang Yao could allow him to have his way.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute..." Hearing Wang Yao's tone change, Liang Shan's neck veins bulged. "I'll report to the leadership right away and see if we can arrange a place to receive you as soon as possible. Please wait for me."
Liang Shan took out his phone and looked at Wang Yao pleadingly.
"Make the call as soon as possible. This matter is urgent and cannot be delayed." Wang Yao nodded.
"Please wait a moment, Immortal." Liang Shan breathed a sigh of relief, quickly took the phone and moved far away from Wang Yao, muttering to himself on the phone while constantly glancing at Wang Yao, as if afraid that he would suddenly rush onto the bridge.
After a while, Liang Shanfang finally put down the phone and came over.
“How about this? Our department has a reception center for foreign guests in the city. I’ll accompany you there to rest for a while… Don’t rush… Don’t rush, listen to me. Our clan leader is currently busy with important matters, but he will come to the reception center to see you later,” Liang Shan said.
Upon hearing that the Shu ethnic group's Ministry of Foreign Affairs still wanted to arrange for him to move to the city, Wang Yao was about to fly into a rage, but then he heard that the Shu ethnic group's chief was willing to see him, and he immediately hesitated.
After all, seeing Qiao Bushi was his main purpose for coming here. The human clan leader had already agreed to see him, so if he made any more trouble, it would seem a bit excessive.
"Oh, I see... How long will it take him to get here? I have things to do this afternoon, but I can't wait for him for too long," Wang Yao said, looking up at the sky with a troubled expression.
Liang Shan's face twitched. Even though the Shu Clan had been keeping a low profile in the Eastern Continent, they were still one of the most powerful clans on the entire continent. How could they possibly meet their clan leader so easily? He hadn't expected that the clan leader would give him face by treating him like a low-level immortal, and he was actually acting all arrogant? No time yet?
If you don't have time, then get lost. What are you doing here causing trouble?
Actually, it's not fair to blame Wang Yao for being impolite. He was telling the truth; there was an operation tonight, and he couldn't keep waiting for Qiao Bushi and delay the operation.
“Well… since the clan leader has already agreed to come and see the immortal, it shouldn’t take too long,” Liang Shan said to Wang Yao with a forced smile.
“Alright, I can wait for him, but I have to leave when the time comes. If you suffer losses later, you can’t blame me for not giving you a heads-up beforehand,” Wang Yao said.
"That's right, that's right, I won't blame you, I won't blame you..." Liang Shan just wanted to get rid of Wang Yao as soon as possible. Seeing that his attitude had softened, he hurriedly assured him and led Wang Yao away from the bridge.
Ahead, a car that had come from the island in the middle of the lake was already parked on the roadside. Liang Shan and Wang Yao got into the car and drove through the streets and alleys of Cheese City. After driving for a short while, they stopped in front of a luxurious building. A rat waiter hurriedly stepped forward to open the car door for them.
Liang Shan led Wang Yao into the building, up to the eighteenth floor, and into a spacious room. The room was like a large suite in a hotel, with a living room outside and a bedroom and bathroom inside, decorated in a luxurious and comfortable style.
A waiter came in and brewed tea for the two of them.
"Leave the hot water here, we'll do it ourselves." Liang Shan waved his hand, dismissing the waiter, before sitting down with Wang Yao as host and guest.
"Isn't the Immortal supposed to have come directly from the Immortal Realm to our Shu Clan?" Liang Shan asked casually, fiddling with his phone.
“Not bad.” Wang Yao nodded.
"Then how did you end up going to the Yi Clan?" Liang Shan frowned and looked at Wang Yao seriously.
"Oh, I see. I had a pact with the Great Elder Tongxuan of the Zhanghuang Clan in the Immortal Realm, so I was taken away by the Zhanghuang Clan as soon as I arrived here. Later, due to some unexpected events, I went to the Yi Clan, where I was handling some personal matters."
"But when I was staying with the Yi tribe, I received instructions from the captain of our investigation team to carry out some official business. The main task was to travel to various tribes in Dongchuan in the name of the Heavenly Court's investigation team. That's why I obtained the passage document from the Yi tribe." Wang Yao didn't seem to care and answered truthfully.
"It turns out that the immortal went to the Zhanghuang tribe, but... why don't we have any record of the immortal leaving the country? After learning that the immortal had entered the country, we even specially tailored a service plan for the immortal, but it was shelved because the immortal left without saying goodbye."
"Please believe me, Immortal, that our Shu clan's record of the comings and goings of foreign guests is by no means intended as surveillance. It is only to better serve our foreign guests and to prevent them from having the impression that the Shu clan treats its guests poorly. After all, our Shu clan has always been renowned in the Holy Land for its hospitality."
Liang Shan gave a long explanation, which Wang Yao would have scoffed at in the past. It was only natural for the Shu tribe to monitor outsiders, so why explain so much? But after his experience in the Shu tribe, he even began to believe that what Liang Shan said was true.
"Oh, maybe the Zhanghuang tribe was afraid of disturbing you, so they used some special methods to get me out of there." Wang Yao scratched his head. That Zhanghuang Express should be called smuggling, right? It was really embarrassing to talk about smuggling in front of diplomats.
"I understand." Unexpectedly, Liang Shan did not press the matter further. He nodded and asked about another matter.
“Our records of the immortals begin at Mooncake Pass, which is the border between us and the Liang tribe. Did the immortals come from the Liang tribe? Moreover, our records show that the immortals did not enter the country alone, but we do not know where the immortals’ companions are now?”
"Uh..." Damn it, as expected, the Shu clan noticed Qinghe's presence. But what's strange is, how come they didn't know that their companion was the Liang clan princess? Could it be that the Liang clan's investigation notice didn't include an image of Qinghe? Is that why they didn't recognize her?
