Dongfang Mian felt a bit annoyed. "Where did you go with that unruly spirit you had just displayed? If you had, I wouldn't have had to struggle with this."

How could someone as soft-hearted as me endure being forced to kneel and kowtow so constantly?

Seeing Yu Qingxuan's pitiful pleading face, Dongfang Mian couldn't bring herself to say what was on her mind. She really wanted to say that she, a mere valley master who had been casually swatted away by you, was of no help whatsoever.

Dongfang Mian even wanted to ask Yu Qingxuan if the Tianyin Valley, which she revered so much, was the same as hers.

But the thought that if things really went wrong, given Yu Qingxuan's initial temper and the fact that she had knelt before him so many times, she would definitely not hesitate to kill him without hesitation.

So Dongfang Mian swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue and simply said, "How do you know I can definitely help Piaomiao Palace overcome its difficulties?"

“Because you are the Valley Master of Tianyin Valley!” Yu Qingxuan said firmly.

Oh no, the Tianyin Valley this woman is talking about has nothing to do with me. Otherwise, how could my little Tianyin Valley, which has nothing to do but clean, be so intimidating?

With a heavy heart, Dongfang Mian said, "Why don't we go and see how the inheritance is going over there?"

Yu Qingxuan suddenly realized what was going on and quickly bowed, saying, "This way, sir."

Dongfang Mian walked ahead of Yu Qingxuan as if stepping on a knife's edge, and soon arrived at the end of another path. Yu Feiluan seemed to have obtained the inheritance of the Misty Palace and was standing next to another woman who also looked cold.

Seeing Dongfang Mian approaching, Yu Feiluan excitedly waved to her, "Mian'er, I have received the inheritance."

The second palace master beside Yu Feiluan looked at Dongfang Mian with displeasure, and also glared at Yu Qingxuan. The Fairy of Misty Clouds had not yet completed the entire inheritance, so how could she so rashly bring her protector over?

Fearing that the second palace master's attitude would anger Dongfang Mian, Yu Qingxuan quickly stepped forward and whispered something in her ear.

Then, to Yu Feiluan's horrified gaze, the second and third palace masters of Piaomiao Palace knelt down in unison and performed a grand salute to Dongfang Mian.

Seeing Yu Feiluan standing there dumbfounded, the second palace master said irritably, "Feiluan, why don't you kneel down and greet the master?"

Yu Feiluan knelt down before Dongfang Mian, looking completely bewildered. Hadn't they all agreed before entering the cave that they were good friends?

Dongfang Mian was speechless for a moment, wishing he could kneel down and they could just become sworn brothers.

I couldn't help but silently curse Hua Qianxun in my heart. Why did you have to name your sect Tianyin Valley? Look at the misunderstanding you've caused now.

(Hua Qianxun's inner thoughts: What does this have to do with me? Shouldn't this be the responsibility of the first Valley Master...?)

After an awkward moment, Dongfang Mian resigned herself to her fate. She decided to just consider it as a way to promote Tianyin Valley. Since things had already developed to this point, ignoring it was completely impossible.

Regardless of whether the Heavenly Sound Valley they mentioned is the one he inherited, he is determined to see this mess of the Misty Palace through to the end.

"Alright, tell me, what happened at Piaomiao Palace?" Dongfang Mian said weakly. "Let's make this clear first, don't kneel down all the time. You two are getting on in years, don't always do this."

At their advanced age... The two palace masters were momentarily flustered, but quickly calmed down. Oh well, they were just Dao souls anyway, they would endure it for the sake of Tianyin Valley.

Yu Feiluan was also surprised. "Something happened at Piaomiao Palace?"
