on Duke?” A merry Dragonfeather appeared before the girl.

She shook her head without a word.

“What is it? Is he unworthy of you, or are you unworthy of him?”

“Second uncle.” Qing Ting turned around with an extremely serious expression on her face.
“If you insist on randomly playing matchmaker, not only will you not push us together, but you might force us apart as enemies.”

Dragonfeather blinked.

“You don’t want what happened to Auntie Ying to happen to me too, do you?” she pointed out with mixed emotions.

Qing Ying had been the city lord’s younger sister and lost her life due to a failed political marriage.
Though the city lord personally killed her betrothed after the fact, the matter remained a painful lesson for House Qing.

One of the major reasons why the Coiling Dragon city lord spoiled Qing Ting so much was because of Qing Ying.
Qing Ting was a natural recipient of the amends that would’ve gone to her aunt.

“Do you really feel nothing for him? I see that he’s given you a lot of presents, doesn’t that mean he has some thoughts about you?” Dragonfeather asked with confusion.
Of course he wouldn’t force Qing Ting into anything.
If he did, his brother would be the first to crush him out of existence.

Qing Ting was a young beauty.
Though not as stunning as the little fox, she was lovingly delicate and inspired affection from everyone who saw her.
Leng Che, You Cang, and the exposed Ghost Dragon had all harbored certain thoughts about her.
All of the youths of Coiling Dragon City and associated forces viewed her as their goddess.

“If he did, he wouldn’t have returned those three thousand crystal veins to me,” Qing Ting murmured.

……

Indeed, Lu Yun didn’t have any particular feelings for Qing Ting.
In his eyes, Qing Ting and Li Zhen were the same—his friends.

Li Zhen had run afoul of heavy pursuit in his journey throughout the land.
After being less than careful during one instance of using the purple crystals, their aura leaked out and even more cultivators hunted him down now.

Naturally, Lu Yun wouldn’t sit idly by.
He utilized the resources of the Immortal Pagoda and Hopeless Major to send assistance from the shadows, helping Li Zhen grow tremendously through battle after battle.

When Lu Yun returned to Multitude City, Jin Naluo was sitting in front of the pagoda’s doors with a small leather whip, occasionally whipping a lifeless Lewd King.
This was one of the key ways in which he vented his displeasure.

After Lu Yun and the little fox handed the Immortal Pagoda over to Jin Naluo with their departure, his ambitions soared to the heavens upon receiving a hundred supplemental grandmasters.
He wanted to achieve something grand and also incorporate the Immortal Pagoda into his Bloodpool Mountain.
Who would’ve thought that the two would return shortly afterward, and with a bunch of experts he couldn’t see through?

Those bastards gnawed his Bloodpool Mountain dry in a split second and only left Jin Naluo alone because he was Lu Yun’s ally!

“That’s strange, wasn’t the Human King captured last time he came to make trouble for the Immortal Pagoda? When did he get away?” As he whipped the Lewd King, Jin Naluo regarded the Human King in Haotian Tower with bafflement.

“Eh? Immortal King, you’ve come b—out.” He quickly stood up when he saw Lu Yun.
“No, wait, why should I be so fearful toward that kid?” He was being too pitiful!

Jin Naluo was likely the only person in the Hongmeng who knew Lu Yun’s background.

“Mmhmm.” Lu Yun nodded at him.
“I now promote you to grand steward of the Immortal Pagoda.
The Acclaim, Ruin, and Daredevil Kings won’t bully you after that.”

“I… how… how would they dare bully me?” Jin Naluo blushed fiercely.
“It’s more like me bullying them!”

“Are you sure?” Lu Yun leveled a questioning stare at him.
“They’re all ninth step kings, are you sure you can bully them?”

Jin Naluo snapped his mouth shut.
