What kind of nonsense was this?
The guards of Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets had never heard of such a phrase in their lives.
Checking the water meter?
This was Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets—one of the absolute hegemonic forces of Sun Moon City. It had already closed its doors for the night, yet someone still dared to shout and pound on the gate like this.
They clearly did not take Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets seriously at all.
Did these people not know who the real king of Sun Moon City was?
"Who dares to shout and make trouble at the important grounds of Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets—are you seeking death?"
A cold, angry voice came from behind the door.
"So much nonsense," Alix snorted impatiently.
"Our lady asked you to open the door. Don't make me kick it open myself!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Alix smashed his fist against the massive gate again and again, the deep, muffled sounds echoing down the street.
"You're courting death!"
