Su Cheng left with Li Shiyao, and Dongfang Jue lay flat on the bed, lost in thought.
Was it supposed to have a happy ending?
Why take the risk?
If I had to say back then, perhaps I also wanted to possess great power, or perhaps I didn't want to lose to Ye Qinghan.
But at this moment, when that doting gaze fell upon her, she quickly understood that this was what she wanted.
She didn't know if she had fallen in love with that man. How could a sixteen-year-old child understand what love was?
But I just want to be closer to him, the closer the better.
Everything else seemed to become unimportant.
As Su Cheng said, things here are almost settled.
He got out of bed, summoned Zou Fu and several military officers, gave them instructions, and then returned to the palace.
She planned to quickly borrow a magical artifact from her father so she could go to the Northern Region to find her master!
With a lineup like Yu Lan and Xu Zhanfeng, they can basically sweep through the Northern Region.
The two of them chatted as they crushed one sacred realm after another!
“Steward Xu, this trip has truly broadened Yu Lan’s horizons. It seems that Yu Lan really underestimated you back then.”
It must be said that Xu Zhanfeng is always impeccable in his work.
In terms of interpersonal skills, they are exceptionally gifted!
"Elder Yu Lan is too kind. It's all for the sake of Lingxian Palace, so Zhan Feng would never dare to be careless."
To be honest, that sycophantic act was just to please the two grandmothers.
Yu Lan raised her hand and put the Lord of the Holy Domain into her red velvet pouch, and that was about it.
Before long, the eldest grandmother descended from the sky, and Yu Lan subconsciously looked to her side...
Xu Zhanfeng was as fast as lightning! He had already transformed into a blur, kneeling as he instantly vanished!
"Zhan Feng! Welcome, Madam! Madam looks even more beautiful!"
Yu Lan felt a little confused. Did Ye Qinghan take control of Lingxian Palace?
Even so, he still bowed slightly to greet the young lady.
"Xu Zhanfeng, how's things going here?" Ye Qinghan was speechless; this was too embarrassing...
"As instructed by the master, everything has been taken care of! Madam, please rest assured!"
"You did a great job and helped Qinghan a lot! Is there anything you want or need? I will ask my master to ask for a reward for you later!"
Ye Qinghan felt there was nothing wrong with this. As a prestigious and righteous sect, it was only right to reward and punish accordingly, and those who did well should be rewarded.
But Xu Zhanfeng dared not think that way!
“The eldest mistress has shown me great kindness, and Zhan Feng can only repay her with his life. How dare I ask for any reward?”
Neither the eldest mistress nor the elders asked for a reward, so how dare he ask?
That being said, in this Lingxian Palace, two are direct disciples, and one is the sect leader's partner. He's the only outsider. If he doesn't know his place, he probably won't live long!
Ye Qinghan simply smiled and began to explain.
"Steward Xu is diligent in his work, which Qinghan has noticed. There is no need for Steward Xu to belittle himself. Now that we have entered Lingxian Palace, we are all family. There is no need to be so polite."
"Home, home, home, home...family..."
Xu Zhanfeng knelt at Ye Qinghan's feet, tears welling up in his eyes!
"Hehe, Deacon Xu, get up quickly. If the elders see this, they'll think Qinghan is bullying someone again, won't they?"
To be honest, Xu Zhanfeng realized once again what kind of immortal sect this was.
Upon hearing this, Yu Lan also became playful.
"Yu Lan has worked very hard too~ Yu Lan also wants a reward!"
Yu Lan was not polite at all, and she didn't care even if Su Cheng was in front of her!
But Ye Qinghan was not happy and rolled her eyes as she retorted!
"These days, with Qinghan absent, Elder Yulan must be showering us with gifts every night. Why bother with Qinghan?"
Xu Zhanfeng pretended not to understand even though he did, and ran outside; this was not something he should be listening to.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out, he bumped into Su Cheng squatting outside the main hall of the Holy Domain, smoking a cigarette.
Su Cheng looked embarrassed when he saw Xu Zhanfeng and made a shushing gesture.
He casually handed one to Xu Zhanfeng: "Do you know how?"
Xu Zhanfeng has no choice but to learn!
What is human relationships and worldly wisdom? The strength of a powerful being in the Integration Stage is not just about cultivation level!
He took it with both hands, squatted down next to Master Su, took a puff, and didn't feel anything special, but it was very meaningful!
"Why doesn't the sect leader go in?"
Su Cheng smiled and said, "Do you think it's appropriate for me to go in given the situation?"
"It seems that even someone as powerful as Sect Leader Su has his troubles."
"You can't imagine the troubles of a sect leader."
Su Cheng exhaled a large puff of smoke, his face also showing utter despair.
The tallest tree catches the most wind; the most outstanding tree in the forest will surely be felled by the wind.
To be honest, he had no idea what Yu Lan saw in him. As for magical treasures and supernatural powers, she had no interest in them.
However, Yu Lan is indeed very cute; sometimes serious and sometimes mischievous, she's the perfect girlfriend.
He liked Yu Lan, a girl who wasn't bound by rules but was bound by handcuffs; that little devil's expression was really unbearable for him.
Xu Zhanfeng dared not say anything more. Even if the eldest madam truly regarded him as one of her own, there were some things he couldn't say. The affairs of the sect leader were not his concern.
"Master? What are you doing?"
They hadn't exchanged more than a few words when Ye Qinghan spotted the scent and found it, which startled Su Cheng.
"Let's smoke a 'Light Cold' cigarette with Yu Lan, that 'Light Cold' cigarette..."
My mouth is so damn big!
"And Steward Xu..."
Ye Qinghan looked at him with doting eyes, thinking that his master could be as cute as a child.
Ye Qinghan and Yu Lan exchanged a glance and smiled at each other. It was just a playful banter. As long as Yu Lan didn't have any ulterior motives, Ye Qinghan didn't care.
