"Since that is the case, I will not disturb you further, Governor. This subordinate shall take her leave first." Ji Yu bowed slightly.
"Alright." Li Tianming nodded.
Afterward, Ji Yu left with a bellyful of worries, heading straight into the Old Capital, where the celebration was still in full swing.
She was tactful enough to leave Li Tianming some space to be alone and contact others.
Ji Yu's feelings were rather complicated now. Her negotiations with Li Tianming had yielded some results, but the situation was not as optimistic as she had imagined.
The solution that she considered capable of satisfying both sides required Li Tianming to pay an enormous price, and might not even succeed.
At this moment, Li Tianming was the only figure left outside the Old Capital. He pondered for a while as well, considering whether there was any good way to handle this.
"For now, the main issue is the degree of negotiation with the Young Imperial Sovereign—how to change his attitude toward handling the Divine Treasury Clan without offending him or overstepping my station," Li Tianming mused.
Seeing how worried he seemed, Aurora gently whispered by his ear, "Why not contact Governor Wei first? Now that we've taken the Little Divine Treasury Star System, that counts as a merit. Informing her can also be considered reporting the military situation."
"Mm." Li Tianming nodded, feeling somewhat better. "That's true. And perhaps I can seek her advice. She may have a different perspective."
He took out the Communication Star Tower and sent a message to Wei Shendao.
Very soon, a dignified and luxurious figure with green hair and green eyes appeared atop the Communication Star Tower.
"Tianming, you don't look nervous at all. It seems things went fairly smoothly, didn't they?" Wei Shendao asked with a smile.
