Chapter 528: My house was robbed?

A plump, pink starfish was born amidst the explosive fireworks.

Liang Yu, who was currently fleeing, stopped his steps. The reason he stopped wasn’t because he had a change of heart; instead, he felt that what he had done wasn’t good enough.

The previous explosion was just an explosion; it hadn’t risen to the level of art.

Because he still wanted to give that area another one.

Just as he was fully focused on how to implement his artistic plan, suddenly, an earth-shattering sound came from the direction of the Drought Demon, so loud that even he, at such a distance, could feel it.

This sudden, immense sound, like a bolt from the blue, abruptly interrupted his thoughts.

Liang Yu’s heart tightened, and a sense of crisis welled up within him.

He could clearly feel the terrifying energy fluctuation sweeping towards him with an overwhelming force, so powerful that the stones around his body trembled uncontrollably.

In this heart-pounding moment, Liang Yu didn’t care about anything else; all thoughts of art were thrown to the wind.

At this moment, he had only one thought: run away!

Without the slightest hesitation, Liang Yu made a decisive choice and unhesitatingly chose to follow his instincts.

The next moment, he even used teleportation; his figure flickered, instantly disappearing from where he stood, as if he had never been there.

In a remote, desolate, uninhabited corner of West Sand City, Liang Laoliu, who followed his instincts, suddenly appeared.

Liang Laoliu seemed to be no stranger to this place; he stood there at ease.

After confirming that there was no danger around, Liang Yu disengaged from the Emperor Armor.

As for the situation with the Drought Demon, he didn’t care at all, as if it was something from another world, completely unrelated to him.

He thought to himself,

“Let those Zen Sect people deal with the Drought Demon’s matter themselves; I’m too lazy to worry about it.”

Even if something big really happened, even if the sky fell, there would be people higher than him to bear it; it would never be his turn to worry.

Afterward, Liang Yu walked out of this secluded place, and gradually, more and more people appeared around him.

As Liang Yu passed by, he overheard the conversations of the city’s residents.

However, what made him uneasy was that the word “City Lord” appeared multiple times in their conversations.

This word echoed in his mind, like an ominous premonition.

Liang Yu’s heart began to pound, and an inexplicable sense of tension surged within him.

He couldn’t help but wonder why these people were mentioning the City Lord so frequently?

What had the City Lord done to elicit such a reaction from the city’s residents?

All sorts of questions swirled in Liang Yu’s mind, making him feel increasingly heavy-hearted.

This even made Liang Yu feel a bit like a thief with a guilty conscience. As for why this was the case…

After all, the former City Lord Moyuan had actually betrayed him, an act that was truly intolerable.

So Moyuan had already been dealt with by Liang Yu.

And the current City Lord Moyuan is actually just Mario, a laborer in Moyuan’s skin, responsible for impersonating Moyuan to keep the city running.

This also caused the entire city to fall into Liang Yu’s hands.

Now that the City Lord was mentioned again, Liang Yu even wondered if he had been exposed.

So he blended into the crowd, acting as a curious bystander to gather useful information.

While observing, he somehow inexplicably followed the crowd to a restaurant.

Upon entering the restaurant, Liang Yu looked around and found that the decor was elegant and generous, the tables and chairs were neatly arranged, the floor was clean and tidy, and the air was filled with a faint aroma of wine and dishes, making him feel very comfortable.

He didn’t notice anything unusual, and his mood relaxed accordingly.

Liang Yu naturally walked to a window seat and sat down. Sunlight streamed through the window, creating a warm patch of light on the table.

He casually ordered a few dishes and a pot of tea, then quietly waited for the food to be served.

While waiting, Liang Yu began to pay attention to the conversations of the surrounding diners.

He heard people at the next table talking about the novelty of this restaurant, saying that its dishes were unique, delicious, and the service was very attentive.

Others said that the owner of this restaurant was a very creative person, often introducing new dishes and activities.

Liang Yu listened for a while, feeling a bit taken aback.

He felt that there was nothing particularly special about this restaurant; while the dishes were good, they weren’t exactly novel.

Moreover, he didn’t have any particular impression of the service here; he just felt that everything was normal.

When his ordered dishes arrived, Liang Yu’s dumbfounded expression fell into the eyes of the surrounding diners, as if they were seeing their past selves.

What truly stunned Liang Yu was that the one serving him was actually a food delivery robot, not the usual waiter.

It wasn’t until this moment that he understood why.

Why so many people found this restaurant novel.

Why so many people were discussing the City Lord. He vaguely guessed the general situation, only waiting for further confirmation.

After a period of waiting, Liang Yu felt that the time was ripe, so he picked up his bill and slowly walked towards the front desk, ready to pay and leave.

As he reached the front desk, he met the cashier’s gaze.

Liang Yu thought to himself, since he was already here, he might as well ask her about City Lord Moyuan.

After all, people in restaurants usually know a lot of things.

So Liang Yu smiled and inquired about City Lord Moyuan to the cashier.

The cashier was stunned for a moment, seeming a bit surprised by Liang Yu’s question. She hesitated for a moment, then replied,

“Oh, you mean the former City Lord Moyuan. He abdicated a long time ago; our City Lord of West Sand City has already changed.”

Upon hearing this, Liang Yu couldn’t help but feel a surge of surprise.

Then the cashier introduced Liang Yu to the policies enacted by the new City Lord after taking office, as well as various innovative shops.

Also, this restaurant was also founded by the new City Lord.

Liang Yu watched as the cashier became more and more enthusiastic, almost turning into a devoted fan of the other party.

He found an excuse and slipped away directly; he didn’t want to listen to the cashier bother him endlessly.

Just as he slipped out of the restaurant, Liang Yu saw many people rushing towards the east side of the city.

He casually stopped someone and asked, somewhat puzzled,

“Brother, why are you all rushing so anxiously towards the east side of the city?”

After being stopped, the man looked at the man in front of him who surprisingly didn’t know, so he pulled him along and explained as they ran.
