Because she knew that if she were to make a move, there might be people who would take advantage of the situation and the chance of her being exposed was also higher.
She had been hiding for 11 years...
Would she be exposed because of this matter?
At this time, the door was suddenly blasted open and a man wearing a mask walked in while holding a cane. From his posture, it seemed that he had some difficulties walking.
"Why are you here?" the Fourth Head of the Wansu City frowned when he saw this person.
"You’re letting off the people from the Black Family too easily," The man in mask said in annoyance. "You should know that if the person who reached rank 7 comes from their family, Wansu City will never be at peace at all...."
"Fifth elder, I don’t think that it’s right for you to question the Fourth Head," another man walked in.
"First elder, this is not your business!" The man in the mask, the fifth elder, was furious.
The first elder snorted and crossed his arm. "You might be the one in charge of the investigation, but you need to remember that they’re members of Wansu City. Do you really think that you can treat them as war prisoners and torture them cruelly?"
"Shut up!" the Fourth Head of the Wansu City was annoyed when he saw this. "If one of them is truly the one at rank 7, do you think they’ll be happy being treated so rudely? Think more about the consequences of your action!"
The two elders glared at each other.
In the end, the fifth elder snorted and walked away.
The first elder still stood there for a moment and shook his head. He glanced at the Fourth Head of the Wansu City and said, "I might be responsible for your protection, but did you know that the number of people who want to take your head now has increased so much? It’s a hassle to clean them all up!"
"I’m sorry to trouble you," the Fourth Head of the Wansu City said with an ugly expression.
He knew very well that the dissatisfaction towards him in Wansu City had increased in the past few years. But for this matter, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City was also helpless. He couldn’t do anything much and could only try his best to proceed with what he had been doing.
The first elder looked at the Fourth Head of the Wansu City in front of him and sighed. "You know, it’s time to elect the Fifth Head."
Hearing this, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City raised his head. "You’re not about to volunteer yourself, are you?"
"I’m as old as you and no longer suitable to sit in this position." The first elder shook his head. "You should pick someone younger who’s more promising like your disciples. And take care of yourself, that fifth elder is not going to give up so easily."
After saying that, the first elder walked out of the office.
At this moment, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City was silent. He knew that the first elder was right.
Sitting on this position after so many years, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City had already tasted the sweetness of power and position. What he wanted to do the most was to make sure that he could sit even longer and do more for Wansu City.
Outside the office, Aya watched with a thoughtful expression.
She didn’t know the situation in the inner circles of the Fourth Head of the Wansu City and others before this. What she knew was that there were five elders under the Fourth Head of the Wansu City who were in charge of various matters and reported directly to the Fourth Head of the Wansu City.
But she didn’t know about their details.
When there was time, she might need to take a look at these elders.
there were several elders who were working for Wansu City but they would not usually appear outside their working place.
Before leaving, Aya took another look to the Fourth Head of the Wansu City, who had already taken out the book he hid before.
While the Fourth Head of the Wansu City still did his work from time to time, but it seemed that he was no longer that serious and bothered with work that much.
But if she was not wrong, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City was no longer that young anymore.
Will his body be fine reading so much of those things?
Aya was a bit confused.
In just a moment, Aya had left.
And in that office, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City was still reading for a while before putting it away. There were a lot of conflicts within the city and the Fourth Head of the Wansu City often felt really overwhelmed.
What he could do was to try pacifying both sides when they truly conflicted.
’It’s indeed tiring.’
He was no longer young and the work as the head of the city was slowly becoming more and more overwhelming, making the Fourth Head of the Wansu City really tired.
Just after the problem of those ghosts became more prevalent, the matter of someone advancing to rank 7 in their territory came out.
In the end, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City shook his head.
He chose to leave it be.
As for what the elders will do later, the Fourth Head of the Wansu City chose to turn a blind eye. He knew that the fifth elder was a bit harsh in his methods and would rather kill everyone involved rather than leaving the possibility of things leaking out.
But in the current situation, Wansu City really couldn’t withstand more magic warriors dying.
Facing against those ghosts... they truly lack manpower.
