Hearing the young man's words, Xu Zimei fell into light contemplation.
Heading straight for the City Lord Mansion to seize the inheritance seemed to expose too large a target.
He had just arrived on the Northern Continent and saw no need to provoke a conflict with Lu Kingdom just yet.
Moreover, many people didn't even know about the matter of the Wind Extinguishing Bead's inheritance; there was no point in startling the snake by hitting the grass.
"Can you let me go now," the young man asked tentatively.
"What if I suddenly reconsider," Xu Zimei asked with a faint smile.
"You," the young man's face subtly changed, his eyes flickering uncertainly.
In the end, he said, "Do you truly intend to make an enemy of Void Valley?"
"That's not it," Xu Zimei shook his head.
"It's just that not many people know about the news of the symbiotic object right now. If I let you go and you make the news public, what then?"
Hearing Xu Zimei's words, the young man fell silent for a moment.
