Not far away.
Jiang Xuan was at this moment half-kneeling, helping Nan Gong Liu Yun wash her feet and giving her a massage. He spoke in a gentle tone,
“Wife Master… is the water temperature and strength to your liking?”
“Not bad, but why didn’t you mention before that you knew how to do this…”
“Ah… because Wife Master didn’t ask.”
In truth, Jiang Xuan did this because Nan Gong Liu Yun gave him too much.
When she saw him ready to use ten billion top-quality spirit stones for the Xuantian Pavilion, she countered by giving him another twenty billion top-quality spirit stones.
This top-tier benefactor, Jiang Xuan naturally wanted to serve her with all his max-level skills he received from the System.
If she felt good, she might give him more spirit stones.
But what happened next blew up Su Xinghuo’s mind when she woke up.
The Pavilion Master of the grand Xuantian Pavilion was kneeling and washing someone else’s feet right in front of her! And he looked so submissive!
This was an insult to her position as the Deputy Pavilion Master.
“Pavilion Master, what are you doing! Stop right now!”
Jiang Xuan snapped out of it and glanced at Xiao Hong Xin in the corner. His voice was indifferent,
“Hong Xin, don’t call me Pavilion Master anymore. You are the new one now.
After this… I’ll plead to Wife Master to let you leave Great Jiang Imperial City. The Xuantian Pavilion will be in your hands.”
Xiao Hongxin: “!!!!!!”
On the other side, Nan Gong Liu Yun suddenly reached out and pinched Jiang Xuan’s face.
“You’re being a little too presumptuous, my dear. I haven’t agreed to let her leave…”
Hearing this, Jiang Xuan quickly apologized,
“I apologize… I spoke too soon…”
“Whether or not to let her go depends on my dear husband’s performance.
Moreover, even if we were to let her go, it’d have to be after we get married, otherwise, she might cause chaos.”
In the corner, Xiao Hongxin seemed to have realized something, her pupils slightly constricted.
“I understand. You’re using the Xuantian Pavilion to threaten him into marrying you!
He’s kind-hearted, always bearing humiliation for the sake of the Xuantian Pavilion!”
As Xiao Hongxin finished speaking, Nan Gong Liu Yun’s eyes flickered with amusement.
“You guessed right, but what can you do?
You’re still struggling to escape this bag right now.
You can only watch as your former Pavilion Master serves me loyally.”
“You…”
Before Xiao Hongxin could finish, Jiang Xuan interrupted.
“Director Xiao, you’re overthinking. It’s all voluntary…”
At this point, Nan Gong Liu Yun examined Jiang Xuan and slowly spoke,
“My dear seems to have become a bit more obedient. Come, let’s move to another room to discuss further.
Leave Xiao Director alone for some time.
Whether we let her go or not depends on your sincerity…”
Nan Gong Liu Yun’s words caused Xiao Hongxin’s pupils to constrict again.
Instantly, various scenarios flashed in her mind.

In the scenarios:
Jiang Xuan refused steadfastly but couldn’t escape Nan Gong Liu Yun’s clutches, and was desperately contemplating ending his life.
Nan Gong Liu Yun calmly said,
“If you do this, I guarantee no one in the Xuantian Pavilion will survive, even the Deputy Pavilion Master.”
Jiang Xuan changed his stubborn stance and humbly curried Nan Gong Liu Yun’s favor, falling deeper into her trap.
[Good boy, if you have no energy, just satisfy me…]
[You want to let the Deputy Pavilion Master go? Work harder…]
[Terribly proud before, isn’t it? So important, huh? Envious…]
Just a moment’s imagination made Xiao Hongxin unable to control her tears.
Why did it come to this? Although she got stronger, she ended up protecting nothing and ruined the Pavilion Master…
Thinking about Jiang Xuan’s fate, Xiao Hongxin’s eyes lost their light, and she slowly collapsed in the corner…

On the other side, Nan Gong Liu Yun told Jiang Xuan,
“Husband, stay here for a while. I’ll come to you later.
I sense that Senior Sister has arrived in the Great Jiang Imperial City. I need to meet with her first.
By the way, I haven’t fully questioned her about what happened last time.”
Jiang Xuan: “………”
Only after Nan Gong Liu Yun left did Jiang Xuan’s tense nerves finally ease up.
With just two days left, he couldn’t change anything significantly anyway. The System was too useless to help.
After a moment’s thought, Jiang Xuan decided the best he could do was upgrade his own strength.
Next second, he pulled out a pile of top-quality spirit stones from his storage ring.
He used to practice with high-grade spirit stones, but using top-quality ones would be a lot faster.
This was because top-quality spirit stones contained richer, purer spiritual energy.
However, he had no intention of practicing by absorbing ambient spiritual energy.
First, his absorption was too fast, covering a vast area.
The spiritual energy generation rate couldn’t keep up with his absorption speed, making cultivation less effective than absorbing spirit stones.
Furthermore, reducing spiritual energy within a thousand miles might attract attention from the various experts in the Imperial City.
Jiang Xuan didn’t want to draw such attention.
Moreover, if his location was exposed, and those wicked women all showed up, especially if Liu Yun was distracted for any reason…
He could be kidnapped, then everything would turn bloody.
Thinking about some gruesome outcomes, Jiang Xuan involuntarily took a deep breath.
Returning to reality, Jiang Xuan steadied himself and started cultivating.
Meanwhile, in the Nangong Mansion, Main Hall.
A red-dressed woman slowly spoke,
“Little Junior Sister, long time no see…”
