After changing into a different outfit, Li Xiu went to the address that Sha Chu had left for him.

Although Longevity City was somewhat ancient, fortunately, every street had street signs and door numbers, making it not difficult to find where Sha Chu lived.

The place where Sha Chu lived wasn't as good—it was a small room in a courtyard. When Li Xiu knocked on the door, he saw Sha Chu open it. She wasn't wearing her usual red leather skirt outfit but had on a black lace slip dress.

The large expanse of white exposed at the front almost dazzled Li Xiu's eyes.

"It's an honor to have the Chief Technician visit, please forgive me for not welcoming you from afar," Sha Chu said with a smile.

Li Xiu ignored her and walked straight into her room, noting that it indeed wasn't very large, with only a jade bed, a jade table, and a jade cabinet without much else.

"Do you have a spare quilt or something to lend me, or at least tell me where I can buy one? I don't have anything on my side and will need to get some essentials," Li Xiu said, sitting beside the table.

"The shops and market in Longevity City are all on the east side, but you'd better not go there just yet," Sha Chu sat down, poured Li Xiu a glass of water, and then propped her cheek with her hand, looking at Li Xiu with interest.

"Don't look at me like that. I don't even know how I became the Commander. The Red Sand City Lord gave me an invitation card which was for the Commander. I truly don't know why he gave me that," said Li Xiu, feeling a bit uneasy under Sha Chu's gaze.

"It's a good thing. Now that you've become Commander, I have a chance to transfer into your group. Unfortunately, your group was originally the Demon Armor group. I'm not a Magic Armor Master, so it might be a bit difficult to transfer over," Sha Chu said.

"Don't worry about that. I've already asked. Although I'm taking over the previous Demon Armor group, it doesn't mean I can only recruit Magic Armor Masters. However, transferring you from your original group won't be an easy task," Li Xiu replied.

"Of course it won't be easy, but fortunately, my Blood Seal Stone hasn't fallen into Han Mingshou's hands yet, so we still have a chance," Sha Chu stood up, opened a cabinet, and took out a set of bedding, placing it beside them. "Tomorrow, you and I will go together to Vice President Bai to apply for a group transfer. You need to go there anyway to take over the Demon Armor group. I wonder if Vice President Bai will have any issues with you taking over as Magic Armor Master, since it was his group before."

"Does the group transfer have to be approved by Vice President Bai? That's a bit troublesome," Li Xiu mused.

"It's already the best-case scenario. If Vice President Han were handling this, it would be really troublesome," Sha Chu was quite open about it.

"Han Mingshou is related to Vice President Han?" Li Xiu immediately understood Sha Chu's point.

"They're from the Han Family, how can they not be related?" Sha Chu sighed.

"Living here might not be very safe for you. I have plenty of houses at my place. Why don't you move there to stay?" Li Xiu suggested after thinking for a moment.

The two lived too far apart, and if Sha Chu really ran into trouble, Li Xiu wouldn't be able to get there in time.

"Alright then," Sha Chu didn't hesitate and began packing her things.

She didn't have much to pack—just a few clothes, a backpack, and her outfit.

After Sha Chu finished packing, she turned to look at Li Xiu.

"What's the matter?" Li Xiu asked, noticing her persistent gaze but not understanding the reason.

"Do you want to watch me change clothes? That's not impossible, but maybe we should get a certificate first, and then I'll change ten different outfits every day for you. How about that?" Sha Chu teased with a smile.

"There's no need for that," Li Xiu said as he got up and walked out, closing the door behind him.

Sha Chu's place was just one room without any privacy to change, so Li Xiu had to step outside.

Just as he closed the door, he saw a middle-aged man standing in the courtyard, glaring at him coldly.

Li Xiu could tell who he was just by the look in his eyes.

"Commander Han?" Li Xiu asked calmly, looking at the man.

"You're the new Chief of the Skills Group, Li Xiu?" Han Mingshou didn't answer but coldly asked.

"Yes, does Commander Han need something?" Li Xiu replied lightly.

"Do you know what the most dangerous thing within Longevity Heaven is?" Han Mingshou said with a cold gaze and expressionless.

"No idea." Li Xiu sat down on the jade steps by the door, speaking nonchalantly.

"The four great families of Longevity Heaven are rule-followers; as long as you don't break the rules, we won't bother you. But some people aren't like that; some people particularly dislike following rules, and those people are the most dangerous. And you've unfortunately offended such a person," Han Mingshou said with a casual tone.

"Are you talking about Wan Chaoxin?" Li Xiu understood what Han Mingshou meant.

"Yes, Wan Chaoxin has ambitious plans. He dared to shoot arrows to kill when you were climbing the mountain. Now that you're in Longevity City, he has even more opportunities to kill you," Han Mingshou replied.

"The four great families must follow the rules, so why does Wan Chaoxin dare to break them?" Li Xiu asked indifferently.

"In the past, Wan Chaoxin didn't dare to be so bold, and he still somewhat followed the rules, at least not blatantly breaking them. But now it's different. Someone from the Wan Family has returned," Han Mingshou squinted his eyes as he continued, "With this person around, even if everyone knows Wan Chaoxin killed you, no one can do anything to him."
