“What the!”

The captain of the guards didnt know how to react.

How could anyone change his attitude that quickly

That was not what you said a moment earlier!

To be honest, he was quite stunned as well.

The sudden plot twist came so fast he almost hurt his back.

Is it because of the womans identity

Or is it simply because shes pretty

He never knew the mayor had a lustful streak!

“What are you waiting for Hurry up!” the mayor roared when he saw that the captain wasnt moving due to his stupor.

Cold sweat ran all over his back.

The woman was most likely at the peak of the Star State, as stated by Mr.

Garland; she had to be really close to such an estimate, even if she wasnt already there.

He certainly couldnt afford pissing her off.

Did they not see that even the family master didnt dare to make a personal visit!

The captain woke up after the yelling; his face became blue and pale.

However—having been a captain of city guards for years—he knew what to do and simply fell on his knees!

“M-My lady, it was me who knocked on the door.

Sorry if my actions disturbed you,” said the captain of the city guards after lowering his head.

The only reason for the mayors sudden change of attitude could have been due to the womans extraordinary identity.

Otherwise, the mayor wouldve been fired and executed by the Ryans for disgracing his family.

That is, if he had changed his attitude simply because she was pretty.

The whole street was quiet when the captain fell to his knees.

The whole street was quiet; all that could be heard was the noise from a few blocks away.

All the people who had been ready to watch a battle on the street were shocked.

Someone from the mayors office had just decided to kneel

He was so aggressive at first, but then he suddenly knelt in front of her.

That was certainly unexpected!

“Well…”

Cleo watched such a development from the second floor of the assessment; she was quite surprised.

What is going on

What is the blonde womans identity, to force the mayor into making his captain kneel

Could she be a Star State expert, too

She must be!

Could there be another explanation except that

Cleo felt cold after evaluating.

She had seen the blond woman—seemingly an employee—in Su Pings shop earlier.

That woman had left a deep impression on her, even though she was slightly angry.

“Shes also a Star State expert” Lily was equally dumbfounded, not expecting that such a tiny shop would have two Star State warriors.

It was too unbelievable!

Aside from them, the people on the street came to their senses.

None of them was an idiot; they soon figured out a reason.

If the blond woman didnt have such a high rank, why on earth would the captain have knelt and apologized

That man represented the honor of Woffett City!

Woffett City was under the control of the Ryan family.

So, the Ryan familys honor was at risk!

“I thought they were here to demand an explanation…”

“Oh my goodness, its more like theyre begging for an explanation!”

“Why did he do that Did this shop really have such a powerful background”

Everybody whispered in a low voice, shocked.

They had always thought that the Ryan family were the kings on Rhea, but they found that there were kings above them!

“You did disturb me.

You wont need to breathe any longer if you do this again,” said Joanna with an indifferent, pleasant and daunting tone.

The captains heart was beating faster; cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

He quickly knelt and kowtowed.

It wasnt embarrassing to kowtow before a Star State warrior.

Besides, it was the mayor who had asked him to kneel; the former would also be punished by the Ryans if he was ever blamed for it.

“Get the hell out of here and stop embarrassing yourself,” the mayor instantly roared.

He didnt feel happy about the whispers.

After all, he had been sent there to reach an agreement with the other party.

That unexpected development had disgraced the Ryan family.

He wouldnt have behaved like that had it not been for what Garland said.

After all, the Ryan family would blame everything on him and punish him all the same if the woman was truly a peak Star State expert and he managed to offend her!

It was quite a dilemma; he only hated being the one appointed to deal with it.

Of all the places in the world, why did you have to open your shop in my city

The captain of the city guards was again rendered speechless when the mayor spoke.

But he didnt dare to express his dissatisfaction; he simply backed away on his knees.

“Apologies for my subordinates inconsideration, my lady.

Im the mayor of Woffett City.

Were here mainly to repair the street,” said the mayor respectfully.

The observers on the street clicked their tongues when they heard that.

This man is quite shrewd.

To repair the street

They were clearly there to negotiate, even after that kneeling disgrace they had to endure.

He was claiming he was there to repair the street, meaning that they didnt represent the Ryan family.

In that case, the embarrassment wouldnt be linked to the Ryans.

It was true that nobody could get to higher positions with brawn and no brains.

Those who only fought with brawn were just reckless guys.

If the ones ruling the world did so with their great fists, their reign would have soon collapsed.

Strength was only second to wisdom.

Joanna raised her head and said in disdain, “If youre here to repair the street, do it.

Why are you talking bulls*it to me”

Are they trying to deceive me

Being the War Goddess in the Demigod Burial, she wasnt just a warrior, but also a person with great power.

She had seen exactly what those people were up to.

She had already figured out why they had shown up the moment she opened the door.

After all, she was aware of Su Pings earlier battle, and the latter had given her an introduction to the world outside the shop; she had a basic understanding of their current environment.

Adding her own speculations and judgment, she had already foreseen what would happen next.

“Well…”

The mayor was stunned by the response of such a delicately faced girl, feeling that the rudeness didnt match her look. Shouldnt a girl like her be a graceful lady

Why did she give off the vibe of a man

When his excuse was seen through, the mayor simply replied with a telepathic message, while keeping a humble attitude, “Well, my lady, were here as representatives of the Ryan family.

We would like to know what we should do to bury the hatchet have you release Mr.

Garland.”

Naturally, he couldnt let others hear his begging.

“Make peace Youll have to wait for my boss to come back.

I cant make that decision,” said Joanna indifferently.

Then, she turned around and closed the shop.

When she closed the door, she said, “Repair the street right now, dont let it affect our business! By the way, dont come again for unnecessary trouble!”

Bang.

With that, she closed the shop.

The mayor stood at the entrance of the shop, stunned.

She cant make the decision

She has to ask the boss

Is there a stronger guy above that Star State woman

Was it the young man who captured Garland in the battle earlier, or is it someone who had yet to show up

The more he thought about it, the more shocked the mayor became.

He felt compelled to report the terrifying news to his family immediately.

The mayor saw Garlands helpless eyes when the door was closed.

He smiled bitterly and knew he had messed up what he was sent there for.

Garland had to be confined in the shop for a while longer.

The mayor turned around and said to his two Fate State companions, “Inform the construction department and repair the street before dawn.

Ill be taking my leave.”

They quickly accepted the task with utmost respect.

Although they were at the same level, the mayor had already reached the advanced phase and was part of a powerful faction within the Ryan family.

They had to respect him.

“Stay here and work with the construction department.

Dont let anyone slack on the job,” said the mayor to the captain of the city guards.

He patted the captains shoulder as if comforting him after saying that.

The captain of city guards wept in his heart.

It was true that a trusted subordinate was always the best choice as the scapegoat.

“Yes, my lord.” He accepted the task respectfully, not daring to show his emotions.

Everyone who remained on the street was still in shock after the mayor and his companions left.

They didnt expect the mayor from the Ryan family to leave just like that.

It seemed that their negotiation had fallen out.

“The shop was closed first.”

“They didnt show any respect to the Ryans.

They didnt even invite them into the shop.”

“I wonder what the Ryan family will do next.

This tiny shop has two Star State experts.

Not even the Ryans would have willingly pissed them off.

Its too irrational!”

“Thats right! A battle wont do us any favors.

A battle between Star State experts will cause turmoil all over the planet!”

Some old men who had grown up on that planet were rather worried.

A battle of that caliber would be like a nuclear war in the Blue Planets primitive age.

It was the general public who would suffer in the end.

Outside the shop—

Mia had been stunned to see that event happen in front of her.

Is Joanna a Star State warrior

No wonder she beat me so soundly in our virtual sparring!

Considering the methods of the Star State, she could have easily taken her down, even if they were at the same level!

She was suddenly mollified.

She had always thought she had been defeated by someone of her same rank.

It made much more sense that a Star State warrior had beaten her silly.

I knew I couldnt be beaten so miserably by someone my level, Mia thought.

She was suddenly eager to fight her again.

It was the dream of many to have a chance to fight such an expert.

This would enable her to increase her technique.

The shop owner is also a Star State warrior What an extraordinary shop.

No wonder he didnt give Layne any face earlier.

Odd.

Does the boss hate the Ryans because of that incident

Mia suddenly grew uneasy once the thought crossed her mind.

Layne had tried to defend her as a way to impress her.

She would feel guilty if Su Ping was at odds with the Ryans because of that exchange.

What should I do I should ask him tomorrow.

I wonder if hell be open about it… Mia thought.

She was willing to act as a mediator to solve the issue if that were the case.

At the same time—

The mayor had reported the news to the Ryan family.

All the family members fell quiet once they heard about the presence of another Star State expert.

In particular, the mayor stated that the person was likely to be at the peak of the Star State, according to Garland.

That was truly a piece of shocking news!

The Ryan family was dead silent.

The leaders were utterly speechless because of the news.

The radicals had turned mute; they had been the ones most vocal about declaring war on the shop to display their familys power.

One of the two Star State experts had fought against Garland, the white-robed old man and the other guests, imprisoning Garland in the end.

It was very likely that such an expert was at the peak of the Star State!

Why did such a pair of monsters move to Rhea
