Under Caesar's assistance, Lu Hong and his companions were quickly brought back to the Empire's temporary residence.
Mage Xie Zhongxing dropped a few people in front of him and turned to leave, probably to hunt the Naga Queen.
Xie Zhongxing looked at the youth whose complexion was not very good and said with a smile, "So you must be Baron Yitian, right?"
Although Lu Hong had never appeared in the Empire's court and had almost never shown his face at Imperial social occasions, and was not even on Imperial territory, this did not prevent the Empire's nobility from being familiar with him.
"I am Tu Kulu, it's better for Mage Xie to call me Little Tu." Lu Hong stood up straight. The old man in front of him posed no threat but deserved respect. If it were not for him, the Empire's defenses would have probably collapsed. He was the true hero who saved the Empire from imminent peril.
