"What should we do about the Gu Family, Young Master?" Feng Yuxiang asked him after they left the House of Riches.
"It's simple. We will do nothing." Yuan said.
"First of all, they don't even know about our location or our identity. We're also leaving this world soon, so unless they somehow manage to find us before then, there's no point to even think about it."
"If they somehow manage to find us… We'll deal with it then."
"I understand." Feng Yuxiang nodded and said nothing else.
After returning to the hotel, Yuan logged off.
"I'll see you guys later. I have some business that I need to take care of, so I won't appear for a while. Don't worry, it won't be longer than a few days." Yuan said to Xiao Hua and the others before logging off.
Once he returned to his world, Yuan picked up his phone and dialed a certain number.
"Hello? Manager? This is Yuan. I'd like to speak with the Lord. Please schedule an appointment for me." Yuan said.
"No. The Lord doesn't do appointments. He will call you when he needs you." The Manager coldly refused.
"Don't be so cold. This is about the demons in the mountain. Of course, if you want somebody else to deal with them, I will stop bothering you."
"..."
The Manager was dead silent for a good moment before she spoke, "I will speak with the Lord."
Di.
She immediately hung up afterward.
'She really hates me, huh?' Yuan chuckled inwardly.
'What should I do now while I wait for a response?'
However, before he could even think of anything, his phone began ringing again.
"Hello?"
"Get ready. I am coming to pick you up now." The Manager said.
"You already spoke to the Lord? It hasn't even been a minute since our last conversation—"
Di.
The Manager closed the connection before he could even finish his sentence.
Yuan quickly got dressed and went outside to wait for the Manager after leaving behind a note for Chu Liuxiang, who was diligently cultivating in the balcony.
About ten minutes after their phone call, the Manager showed up in front of Yuan's living quarters.
"Let's go." She said.
"You know, you don't have to pick me up everytime. I know the way by now." Yuan suddenly said to her.
The Manager stopped walking and turned to look at him with a serious face.
"Do you really know the way?"
"Of course." He nodded.
