The corner of his mouth twitched, feeling that he had still underestimated Duan Lanruo’s rank.

The City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords, who held power all year round, was far more experienced than these na?ve, pampered, or cultivation-focused girls, no matter in terms of experience or knowledge.

After all, an elder was still an elder.

Even if her combat power was not as good as theirs, her calmness and efficiency in dealing with things were far better than theirs.

Liu Yuan felt that taking a detour to the City of Ten Thousand Swords was the best decision he had made. Otherwise, he would have died on the way.

Just thinking about it made him shiver.

However, just like what Liu Yuan had just realized, he only had two paths left. Either he died or he started a harem. It was very clear.

“She’s gone this time, but she’ll think that I’ve lied to her again. I didn’t talk to her about it before, but I don’t know how long it’ll take for her to calm down again.”

If Shen Sifan knew what the truth was, she would probably kill someone.

Liu Yuan felt a headache coming on. Furthermore, Shen Sifan was now a judge for the Singing Sword segment, so he had to maintain his pretty boy persona.

“It’s better than her knowing that you’re really having an affair with me, right?”

“I can stop her,” Duan Lanruo said faintly. “If she uses the Green Lotus Sword, I can even gather the power of the entire City of Ten Thousand Swords to keep her here… I’ve said it before, no one in the City of Ten Thousand Swords can hurt you. But what you want is her heart, her complete submission. If I were to make a move, her heart would definitely die, and she would never fall in love with you again.”

This woman, Duan Lanruo, really knows me!

This feeling was as if he had a little assistant by his side when he was raiding. It was simply too considerate!

If he could ask for Duan Lanruo’s opinion when he was raiding other characters, the difficulty would definitely drop sharply.

Liu Yuan almost could not help but clap his hands. He nodded and said, “I have a way to quickly increase my strength, but I can’t count my chickens before they hatch. I think we can reverse the situation and lower Sifan’s strength so that she can’t attack me for the time being. By taking away her advantage, it’ll be easy to do anything in the future.”

By ‘doing anything’, he was not referring to the Overlord forcing himself on her. Instead, he was trying to create a relatively fair environment for a duel. Or rather, he was pretending to be a gentleman and saying that he would wait for her to recover her strength before deciding the winner. In fact, he had taken the opportunity to lock her favorability during this process.

“It seems that the Green Lotus Swordsman’s attack has forced my little Junxuan into a corner. He’s finally not going to continue hiding.” Duan Lanruo smiled. Seeing that Liu Yuan had completely changed from his previous hesitant attitude to a decisive one, she could not help but feel ripples in her heart.

It seemed that Shen Sifan’s accident this time was a good thing. Although Duan Lanruo had sensed it long ago and deliberately did not ask anyone to stop her, she did not expect that child to come so aggressively. The Green Lotus Swordsman was really straightforward when it came to love issues. It was hard on her little Junxuan.

Having said that, it was a good experience to see the anxious and flustered Liu Yuan.

The City Lord’s lips curled up as she looked at Liu Yuan’s face. Although his face was pretty good-looking, it could not compare to his true appearance. She asked softly, “Now that the Green Lotus Swordsman is gone, Mr. Junxuan can restore his face, right? I’ve already sent more people to guard the entrance. This time, no one will be able to disturb us.”

Duan Lanruo reached out and pulled Ah Yue, who was standing quietly at the side, over. The beautiful secret guard had just changed her attitude from being on guard against Chen Sifan. Her imposing manner was deflated by Duan Lanruo pinching on her face. Her ears immediately turned red, and her body stiffened. The City Lord smiled and said, “I’ve forgotten to let Ah Yue see the face of her future master.”

Ah Yue lowered her eyes and stared at the floor in front of her. Even her cheeks were pink, as shy as when she was in front of Liu Yuan just now.

The secret guard’s emotions were restrained, but it had a different flavor.

Liu Yuan was admiring the secret guards that he could not see in the game. Since secret guards were hidden guards, they naturally could not come out in broad daylight. There were not many opportunities to see them. At most, they would occasionally pass by, but they could not even talk to each other.

However, at the mention of changing back to his original appearance, Liu Yuan remembered that his face was changed by Zhiying. He could not change back to his original appearance, so he had to find Zhiying.

However, Zhiying was doing something in some unknown corner.

Liu Yuan was taken aback and said, “Speaking of which, I had Zhiying help me with my disguise. Where’s Zhiying? I still have to catch this child. If she doesn’t learn well at such a young age, what will she do when she grows up?”

Duan Lanruo could not help but laugh. She repeatedly said ‘okay’ and then instructed Ah Yue to personally look for Zhiying.

“Once you find her, let Junxuan give you some rewards ” The City Lord’s tone was especially alluring. Although it was a little overboard to go beyond her duties and promise rewards for Liu Yuan, he could not reject it at all…

Liu Yuan always felt that this ‘reward’ was not ordinary… For example, it could continue what he had failed to steal today. It was not a bad idea.

Ah Yue only gave a sound of agreement, and then immediately disappeared on the spot to look for the person.

However, it felt like she was fleeing instead.

“This child looks cold,” Duan Lanruo commented with a smile. “But in reality, she’s very shy.”

Liu Yuan also smiled and was about to tell Duan Lanruo how he was going to make Shen Sifan’s strength drop.

Duan Lanruo suddenly reached out to hold Liu Yuan’s hand and said softly, “What did I say just now?”

Liu Yuan was stunned. Duan Lanruo said seriously, “You will be the young City Lord. When Lian’er comes back from East Ocean Valley, how about you marry her?”

Liu Yuan was speechless.

The Lian’er that Duan Lanruo was talking about was naturally Duan Lian, who took her mother’s surname. She was Duan Lanruo’s biological daughter.

The f*ck…

A mother-daughter set meal?

Duan Lanruo sighed and said, “Lian ‘er has a gentle personality. She only wants to help the world and has no interest in controlling the City of Ten Thousand Swords. I’ve never been willing to use anyone other than the secret guards. I have to handle the matters of the city personally and don’t have any trusted aides. I’m not willing to hand the City of Ten Thousand Swords to anyone else, so I can only think of you.”

Liu Yuan said helplessly, “But I need to make a trip to the Jade Mirage Sect and the extreme north….”

There were still a lot of illustrations waiting for him. Although it was a little selfish, he really did not want to stop and rest here. Characters like Pihuan Luo and Shen Sifan would not allow him to rest either.

Duan Lanruo shook her head. “I just suddenly thought of it. You don’t have to mind it. I don’t know how long it will be before Lian’er returns. I might have missed her too much.”

She also seemed to be in a state of probing.

Liu Yuan held her hand and said gently, “If you’re willing, I’ll definitely treat you and your daughter as well.”

He always felt that his words were quite trashy. However, he had to this mother-daughter set meal… so he did not care if he was trashy.

Shen Sifan also urged him to make up his mind on an idea that he had been hesitating about before. He would use Hu Zhizhi, the spirit of the mountains and seas, to let him learn the unique skill of this species in the fastest time possible, the ‘Mountain Sea Realm’. It was a map-wide buff, and its effect was to reduce the target’s level by a large amount.
