「The next day.」
Gu Sewei was dealing with the aftermath of last night's events.
The Prince's Messenger Corps had been completely wiped out, and she had to find a way to explain it.
Offending the Jade Prince was one thing, but if it caused the Human Empire to become hostile toward Fred City, finding help in the future would be difficult.
Gu Sewei had a massive headache over this.
The Prince's Messenger Corps had been annihilated right after arriving.
Most importantly, the Jade Prince was an enemy.
Gu Sewei had no idea what to do.
Li Wei walked in. "Weiwei, do you have a moment? I want to talk to you about something."
Hearing his voice, Gu Sewei looked up at him, set down her quill, and asked, "What is it?"
Li Wei said, "I'm planning to leave Fred City."
Gu Sewei asked in surprise, "Where are you going?"
Li Wei explained, "Locks is dead, so the people backing him definitely know that Saint Xi and I are here now."
"If we stay, we'll only bring disaster to Fred City."
