Just as Uchiha Madara was about to speak, the old city lord came over from the front and grabbed his hand excitedly.
"Master!" the old city lord said to Uchiha Madara. "You came at exactly the right time. If it hadn't been for you, this old life of mine might not have held on."
Uchiha Madara had not expected the city lord to be so polite to him.
So Uchiha Madara hurriedly said, "You're too kind."
The old city lord waved his hand at the people standing in two rows. "All of you, leave."
At the old city lord's words, everyone withdrew.
Qiying Fofeng was somewhat surprised. He had not expected Uchiha Madara to hold such high status in this country. When he had first arrived, he had not received this kind of treatment.
"Please tell me what happened," Uchiha Madara said.
"Although I came to your country and heard about what happened here, I don't know whether those accounts differ from the truth, so I wanted to confirm it with you again," Uchiha Madara said.
"Rumors do tend to distort the facts," the city lord said to Uchiha Madara.
"This is what happened." The city lord thought for a moment before saying, "It began a month ago."
"At that time, the guards at our warehouse said they seemed to have heard some movement inside," the old city lord said.
"But everyone went in to check, and there was nothing there. So everyone treated it as an accident," the old city lord said to Uchiha Madara.
"When did you discover that there was a demonized old woman in the warehouse?" Uchiha Madara asked.
Uchiha Madara did not really care what had happened. He only wanted to confirm whether there was a Magic Stone inside the warehouse.
"What demonized old woman?"
