They returned to the mansion.

Mi Yuanzheng then saw the snow-maned lion demon and a cultivator who was grinning foolishly.

A few days ago, the Snow-Haired Lion Demon came to discuss a stone transaction.

However, the city lord's mansion had always cooperated deeply with the Xuanji Mine, and the warehouse had a sufficient reserve of stone materials, so he had his servants send the Snow-Maned Lion Demon away.

The reason his subordinates brought the Snowmane Lion Demon in this time was for another reason...

Beside him, a subordinate whispered to Mi Yuanzheng, "King Mi, this Snow-Maned Lion Demon says he's here to accuse the evildoers of Golden Deer City."

"Oh?"

Mi Yuanzheng glanced at his subordinate with some surprise.

"King of the Deer!"

At this moment, the snow-maned lion demon also noticed the returning elk Yuanzheng and immediately said with eyes blazing with anger, "King Elk, a few days ago I wanted to do a stone brick transaction with you but was stopped outside, but today..."

"Yo!"

Before the Snow-Haired Lion Demon could finish speaking, Mi Yuanzheng pretended to be surprised and came forward to greet him.

He addressed the snow-haired lion demon politely, "I wondered who it was, but it turns out to be Lord Xuebin, a trusted confidant of Lord Cao He!"

The snow-haired lion demon was stunned, and swallowed back all the words that were about to come out.

Mi Yuanzheng glared at his subordinate and said, "What's wrong with you? Lord Xuebin is coming to my residence, why didn't you greet him earlier?"

The subordinate also feigned innocence, saying, "King Deer, we servants truly do not know such an important figure as Lord Xuebin..."

"Alright, you can leave now."

Mi Yuanzheng waved his hand, then said to the Snow-Haired Lion Demon in a friendly manner, "Lord Snow-Haired, the servants in my manor are blind, please don't take offense."

"This...this is certainly not his fault. But King Deer, since you know me, it will be easier for us to talk."

Mi Yuanzheng's few words calmed down the Snow-Haired Lion Demon.

"Come, Lord Xuebin, tell me your purpose."

After taking his seat, Mi Yuanzheng waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to pour tea for the Snow-Maned Lion Demon.

"Thank you, King Deer."

The snow-maned lion demon also politely clasped his hands in greeting, and then said, "King Deer, actually, I came to Golden Deer City this time not to exchange stone bricks for spirit stones with you, but to give you my best stone bricks for free."

"Oh?"

Mi Yuanzheng raised an eyebrow.

Giving gifts for no reason is not the style of a businessman.

"That's how the Deer King is."

The snow-maned lion demon took a deep breath and said, "I came to your Golden Deer City because I heard about an enemy. These stone bricks are a token of my goodwill..."

"The enemy of Lord Xuebin?"

Mi Yuanzheng stroked his beard, waiting for the snow-haired lion demon to continue.

"His fairy slave... killed my son."

The snow-maned lion demon clenched its fists, its eyes red as it looked at Mi Yuanzheng: "King Mi, I've heard from Lord Caohe that your Golden Deer City possesses formidable strength, and we've even discussed it several times during the city lord meetings of Tian Shu Kingdom. So... please help me with this favor, and I will repay you with everything I have!"

"Yes, Lord Caohe and I are indeed on very good terms."

Mi Yuanzheng nodded perfunctorily.

As for who Cao He is?

He knows so many city lords, who would remember the city lord of a small city?

If Tian Qianchen and Lin Heng hadn't come from Lin Heng's side and hadn't known about it beforehand...

He probably only sees Linxian City as a remote and dilapidated border town...

After feigning a moment's thought, Mi Yuanzheng said to the snow-maned lion demon, "But my Golden Deer City is thriving, and everyone is getting along well. Wouldn't it be too hasty for me to kill someone for no reason?"

"Don't be hasty!"

The snow-maned lion demon pointed at Chu Zihe, who looked completely bewildered, and said, "My brother was originally a normal person, but last night, he was attacked by that person in the streets of Golden Deer City!"

After a pause, the snow-maned lion demon said in a deep voice, "King Deer, for violating order and injuring people indiscriminately in Golden Deer City, even if we don't kill him, we should at least put him in jail for a few years, shouldn't we?"

"That's true."

Mi Yuanzheng nodded and asked the snow-maned lion demon, "Then what's the name of the person you want to take revenge on?"

"His name is Lin Heng."

The snow-maned lion demon clenched its fists again.

He would never forget that name.

"Lin Heng?"

Mi Yuanzheng was secretly startled.

Could it be that Lin Heng had already caused a huge uproar in Linxian City, even offending Cao He's confidants?

"Does the Deer King know him?"

The snow-maned lion demon's eyes lit up.

Mi Yuanzheng said in a deep voice, "The Lin Heng you're talking about, is he always accompanied by two celestial servants...?"

"One is a white-robed celestial servant, and the other is a purple-robed celestial servant; one of them even escaped from my own household!"

The snow-maned lion demon nodded repeatedly.

Upon hearing this, Mi Yuanzheng immediately narrowed his eyes: "Men, relay my order: arrest the city's most wanted criminals immediately!"

"Yes."

Four deer demons immediately appeared at the entrance.

"Thank you, King Deer!"

The snow-maned lion demon knelt on the ground excitedly and kowtowed to Mi Yuanzheng.

But when he got up, he found that two deer demons had already locked his arms tightly.

"What are you doing?"

The snow-maned lion demon struggled using his innate brute strength.

However, the deer demons under Mi Yuanzheng's command were also physically strong and quickly brought him under their control.

Finally, the snow-maned lion demon could only look at Mi Yuanzheng and shout, "King Deer, what... what do you mean by this?"

Mi Yuanzheng said expressionlessly, "Those who falsely accused the mine owner of Xuanji Mine in Jinlu City, and Lord Lin Heng, an important official of the City Lord's Mansion, have them taken to the dungeon."

"False accusation?! Lord Lin Heng?!"

The snow-maned lion demon stared wide-eyed.

"Take it away."

Mi Yuanzheng waved to the people below.

"King of the Deer, King of the Deer, are you sure you heard correctly? The most wanted criminal in Golden Deer City should be Lin Heng..."

As his men escorted the Snowmane Lion Demon to the dungeon, his cries for justice faded into the distance.

"Come here."

Mi Yuanzheng pointed to the two deer demons beside him.

"The Deer King".

The two men stepped forward respectfully.

Mi Yuanzheng first said to one of the deer demons, "The Snow-Maned Lion Demon and the other one are from out of town. They died in the dungeon, and no one will notice."

"Understood, I'll arrange it right away."

The deer demon nodded knowingly and headed towards the dungeon.

"Go to that ancient ruin and find my young friend Lin Heng."

Mi Yuanzheng smiled and said to another deer demon, "Tell him that a lion and a madman have accidentally died here, and invite him to be a guest at my city lord's mansion."

The appearance of the Snow-Haired Lion Demon and his companion provided him with the perfect opportunity to solidify his friendship with Lin Heng.

As for how long this friendship can last...

That's hard to say.

"Yes, King Deer."

"etc!"

After thinking for a moment, Mi Yuanzheng added, "By the way, tell him that my city lord's mansion will be hosting a banquet to celebrate him becoming the owner of the Xuanji Mine."

"yes!"
