Su Wan cleared her throat deliberately to bring everyone back to reality. If it hadn’t been for the fact that a dragon couldn’t enter the city, Su Wan would never have allowed Xu Yuan to reveal his human form. He was just too irresistible.
“Let’s go!” Tristana turned away from Xu Yuan.
Su Wan and Tristana hired ten decent carriages to head into the city with their wares.
Canglan City was very prosperous when it came to trading and business. There were many different industries at work.
They passed through the enormous city gates. Su Wan looked out of the carriage window.
Canglan City was huge! There were many glittering buildings close to each other near the streets. The roof of some buildings was a glass dome. They looked so beautiful!
Crowds of pedestrians walked along the streets. Xu Yuan looked at the crowd in curiosity.
…..
The people were dressed in all sorts of outfits. Sometimes, someone would let out a few vulgar words before hurrying along.
Xu Yuan felt a sense of familiarity.
The roads and streets were neatly separated. There were numerous shops and taverns along the line.
The road was so wide that two carriages could easily fit side by side. The wheels of the carriage squeaked on the stone slabs.
Tristana, Su Wan, Claude, and Su Wan rode in one of the carriages.
Tristana did her best to inform Su Wan and Xu Yuan about the buildings and shops. Xu Yuan listened with great interest.
After crossing the bustling streets, the convoy headed straight for the city center.
“Lord Su Wan, let’s head to the manor first.” Tristana avoided Xu Yuan’s gaze. She was red in the face. “Tomorrow, we can pay a visit to the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce. Zorro and President Nami are still waiting for the Hundred Night Flower Honey.”
“Also, they might be able to help you more with setting up the Chamber of Commerce here. They have more knowledge of such things than me,” said Tristana. “You seem to be already familiar with them. I’m sure they’ll be more than happy to help.”
“The black market in Canglan City will also be open for three days. If you are interested, I can take you shopping after you visit the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce.”
Su Wan knew that black markets had all kinds of stuff for sale. Maybe she could find something there which might help her subdue and recruit the Vampire Duke, after all!
Xu Yuan also seemed eager about the idea.
The carriages stopped in front of the majestic manor.
Xu Yuan and Su Wan got out of the carriage with Tristana. They looked up at the beautiful manor.
The manor was huge. It had tall walls surrounding it and was domed.
Su Wan glanced at Tristana in surprise. Tristana had said that her manor wasn’t huge, but it would serve her just fine. This was simply extraordinary!
Tristana was also in a good mood now. She was finally back!
Traveling through the swamp and the harsh environment had tired her out. She needed rest.
Tristana turned to Xu Yuan and Su Wan.
“Lord Su Wan and Lord Xu Yuan, this will be your home in the future. It’s called the Lavender Manor. I’ll have it transferred to your name.”
In a big city like Canglan City, even owning a small shack costs an arm and a leg. This manor was simply too lavish.
Tristana was eager to prove her friendship and goodwill. So, she wanted to give this to Su Wan as a gift. She had witnessed the power and potential of Su Wan’s territory. It would be good to maintain a good relationship with her.
Su Wan didn’t have enough money and resources to buy a manor like this. Yet Tristana was giving it away as a gift.
Su Wan was grateful, but she also realized the extent to which Tristana was willing to fight for what she wanted. This elegant woman with a professional smile on her face was not someone to be trifled with.
Some people were indeed born to be rulers, and Tristana was one of them.
The gates of the manor opened. Maids and servants shuffled out and formed a neat line to serve them.
A white-haired man walked forward. He was dressed in a suit and looked very smart.
He bowed to the guests. “Welcome back, Lady Tristana,” he said. “Welcome to Lavender Manor, esteemed guests.”
“George, no need to be so formal,” said Tristana. She gestured to Su Wan and Xu Yuan. “Lord Su Wan and her hero, Lord Xu Yuan, will be staying with us in the manor. Please have everything arranged for their comfort.”
“Of course, Lady Tristana,” said George. “And again, a very warm welcome to you, Lord Su Wan, and to you, Lord Xu Yuan.”
Xu Yuan was amused. He wondered if this was some noble etiquette that he was unaware of.
Su Wan and Xu Yuan returned the greeting with courtesy.
Tristana led Su Wan and Xu Yuan through the door into the main hall. The path to the house was lined with blooming lavender bushes.
Su Wan felt that this was so in contrast to the dark and grim nature of her territory.
Xu Yuan looked at the flowers strangely.
They followed Tristana into the manor.
Behind the manor, two Lords hid behind an alley and peeked through the dense vegetation.
“Did you see that? Who were the guests?”
