When Hu Peiguang heard their words, he blinked and felt a little at a loss.
But soon, he coughed lightly and said arrogantly: "Hmph, all right! This young master will let all of you become my friends! Don't worry, this young master will definitely protect you all!"
"Thank you very much, Young Master Hu." Chen Yan nodded slightly.
Yu Changying smiled: "Brother Peiguang is so cute. His golden hair is as beautiful as our brother Youlin's red hair."
Zhuge Youlin, who hadn't had a chance to speak the whole time, snorted in dissatisfaction when he heard this: "My red hair looks better!"
"Blonde hair looks better! More elegant!" Hu Peiguang stared.
Just when they were about to argue about their hair color, Jiang Xianyue said, "Black hair looks better."
Zhuge Youlin: "..."
Hu Peiguang heard this and looked at Jiang Xianyue's hair. He thought it made some sense, but he thought that red hair was not as good as blonde hair.
Chen Yan said, "Master Hu, we want to go into the palace and take a look around. Do you want to come with us?"
Hu Peiguang's attention was diverted. He nodded and said, "Wherever you go, I will go."
He added, "Also, from now on, don't call me 'Young Master Hu' anymore. Call me Pei Guang. What are your names? Tell me yours!"
Except for Chen Yan and Chi Yue, the other friends briefly introduced themselves.
When it was Chi Yue's turn, he still hadn't woken up.
Hu Peiguang stared at Chi Yue and asked doubtfully, "Is he injured?"
Zhuge Youlin: "He just fell asleep."
"Oh." Hu Peiguang thought Chi Yue was just suddenly sleepy and needed to rest, so he didn't ask any further.
Hu Peiguang suddenly remembered something and asked, "Are you really from the lower world?"
"real."
Hu Peiguang said, "I heard that Wenren Ji from Chengyun Palace and Nie Xun from Jidao Sect also came from the Lower Realm Continent, but I don't think they are as powerful as the rumors say. Especially Wenren Ji, I feel he is very weak."
Wen Yuchu: "Have you ever fought with him?"
Hu Peiguang shook his head: "Not really. But I haven't seen him take action much either."
Pei Su: "I'm afraid he's hiding his true strength."
After hearing this, Hu Peiguang thought for a few seconds and felt that this was very likely.
Thinking of this, he suddenly looked at his fellow Shura friends seriously: "Are you also hiding your abilities?"
Chen Yan asked back, "Do you think we are more powerful than Wenren Ji?"
Hu Peiguang looked at them for a few seconds and shook his head.
Chen Yan said calmly, “As you can see, we are very weak.”
Hu Peiguang patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, I will protect you."
The Shura friends laughed and said, "Okay."
…
At the same time, the Chengyun Palace team had entered the imperial capital.
Now that they have lost the Grand Elder of Chengyun Hall, everyone's morale is extremely low.
Sui Changyun, the pride of Chengyun Hall, was seriously injured and was being cared for by several other disciples. As for the peerless genius Wen Renji, his injuries were only minor. Although his cultivation was high, his displayed strength seemed a bit low.
Sui Changyun was supported by someone, his lips were pale. He looked up at Wenren Ji who was not far away, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Wenren Ji...
Sui Changyun retracted his gaze and turned to ask the person beside him, "Is there any news about *** Chen Ke?"
“Not yet.”
When Sui Changyun heard this, his eyes deepened slightly, and his hand unconsciously touched his collarbone.
After this separation, when will we meet again?
All the hopes of the Sui family rested on him, he couldn't...
Suddenly, an urgent female voice was heard.
"Brother Changyun!"
Sui Changyun opened his eyes and saw Lu Ling rushing towards him.
Lu Ling came to Sui Changyun, her face showing heartache. She said with great guilt: "Brother Changyun, I didn't mean to abandon you, nor did I mean to not come to see you."
Sui Changyun laughed and looked at her gently: "Silly Ling'er, you don't have to explain to me."
Lu Ling's eyes were filled with tears.
"I knew that Brother Changyun wouldn't blame me."
Just when Lu Ling wanted to reach out and hug Sui Changyun, he held her shoulders.
She looked at Sui Changyun in confusion.
Sui Changyun chuckled and said, "Ling'er, you've grown up. There are differences between men and women."
When Lu Ling heard this, she did not feel disappointed. Instead, she felt happy because her brother Changyun finally realized that he had grown up.
Then he would understand that her feelings for him were not brotherly love, nor friendship, but love.
But his next words made Lu Ling's face change drastically.
"Ling'er, my fiancée will be back soon."
"What fiancée?" Lu Ling looked at him in disbelief.
Even the disciples of Chengyun Hall showed expressions of shock.
Lu Ling reached out and grabbed his collar, "How could you have a fiancée? Brother Chang Yun, are you lying to me?"
"I'm not lying to you. When I was young, my parents were still alive and arranged a marriage for me..."
"No! That doesn't count!" Lu Ling shook her head violently, a look of grievance appearing on her pretty face, her eyes red.
Sui Changyun's brows were filled with distress, and he reached out to pull Lu Ling's hand down.
"I can't let them down."
"Do you like her?"
"I can't say I like it."
"Then why are you still with her? You can break off the engagement!"
"I won't break off the engagement."
"Why?"
"Because this is what we agreed upon."
