"Mr. Xiao, have a safe journey!"
The guards shouted in unison.
The lead guard walked over and personally pushed open the city gate, then turned to Xiao Mu with respect and said, "Brother Xiao, I was blind earlier and did not recognize your greatness. I didn't know that Brother Xiao was leaving the city on a mission for the Alliance. I apologize to Brother Xiao and ask for your forgiveness!"
After speaking, he bowed deeply to Xiao Mu, extended his hand towards the opened city gate, and said, "I wish Brother Xiao a safe journey! Please, Brother Xiao."
"Mr. Xiao, please!"
The guards shouted again in unison, their faces filled with reverence.
"Thank you!"
Xiao Mu cupped his fists in thanks to everyone, walked out of the city gate, but couldn't help muttering to himself, feeling as though he had been calculated by Zhu Yun.
That Old Zhu was definitely doing this on purpose. Even if my departure was for resource hunting, he didn't need to inform the guards.
