Free Web NovelChapter 889: Chapter 48: The Young Miss of Sky City
The entire White Jade City is within reach!
If he could marry this young lady, wouldn’t he become the City Lord of White Jade City? The entire city would be under his control. Then, everyone in the Cultivation World would have to submit to his will.
The more He Ling thought about it, the more excited he became, gazing in the direction of Tianmiao, lost in thought for a long time.
"Senior Brother?" His little junior sister tugged at his sleeve and asked puzzled, "Senior Brother, what are you doing? Shouldn’t we go find Master first?"
"Oh, right, finding Master is more important." He Ling snapped back to reality, glanced once more at Tianmiao, understanding that approaching rashly would not leave a good impression. It was better to have Master make the introduction first.
He Ling and his little junior sister left the scene and headed to the City Lord Mansion.
After they departed, a female guard standing behind Tianmiao approached and whispered to her, "Young City Lord, a moment ago a man looked at you with a disgusting gaze. Should we teach him a lesson?"
To be a guard for the Sky City’s young lady naturally indicates uncommon abilities. They are disciples meticulously selected from both the main and branch families of the Bai Family, outstanding in both strength and loyalty. One more thing, they share the same willfulness as Tianmiao.
"No need. Your instincts are sharp. This person indeed has issues. But don’t alert the enemy; the elders will handle it. Just act as if you know nothing." Tianmiao first praised the female guard and then instructed not to alert the enemy.
The female guard, receiving praise, had her eyes lit up, as if a tail could happily wag.
"Miss, who is this person?" Another guard, overhearing their conversation, asked in a low voice, full of hostility in her tone.
"He’s a disciple of the Cangyuan Sect, He Ling. Remember, don’t show any unusual behavior." Tianmiao instructed again.
"Yes!" The guards responded gravely.
The influx of people into Sky City has surged recently. Inns and large guesthouses are long full, and many cultivators have to pay to lodge in ordinary citizens’ homes. It must be said that this time, Sky City has made quite a profit again.
...
As He Ling walked along, he could hear people everywhere discussing their Young City Lord, all in unanimous praise. For the first time, He Ling felt the extent of the admiration the Young City Lord of Sky City received.
The little junior sister listened as she walked, feeling increasingly uncomfortable.
"Senior Brother, don’t you think these people are exaggerating a bit? In their mouths, their young lady is perfect in every way." The little junior sister couldn’t help but mutter, it’s too exaggerated, adored by everyone. Fanatic to this extent. But hasn’t their Young City Lord done anything extraordinary?
"The Bai Family holds a supreme status in White Jade City, that’s pretty normal. Make sure you don’t express any criticism of White Jade City." He Ling advised her.
"Got it." The little junior sister nodded. Seeing these fanatical admirers of the Young City Lord, she knew that if she said anything about the Young City Lord, they might drive her away.
After reaching the City Lord Mansion, He Ling and the little junior sister found their Master. Under his guidance, they paid their respects to the four Elders of Sky City and other Sect Masters.
The four Elders were dressed in silver robes, with white hair and beards, exuding an intimidating aura. After accepting He Ling’s respects, they showed a slight smile.
"Is this the young and promising He Ling?" the Great Elder smiled.
"You flatter me, I’m just youthful and energetic," the Sect Master of Cangyuan Sect replied with a smile.
