No sooner had Long Ao returned from Lin'an Prefecture and had barely settled in, when he was struck by major bad news.
He had assumed that once Shang Tianhe had left, this position would be his.
Who would have thought that before he could return to Pingjiang City, a new city official had appeared out of the blue.

With the rise of his competition, his sway in the Dragon Gate might now be in question.
