Seeing this, Zhou Xun stood up, cupped his hands, and returned the salute:
"No need for such formalities, everyone!"
Then he turned his gaze to Lin Xueying, and upon meeting each other's eyes, they exchanged a smile. He then expressed his concern:
"Xueying, it's been a long time since we last met. You've lost quite a bit of weight!"
"Since my mentor passed away, the sect has been quite turbulent. As the sect's Young Master, naturally, I have been busy!"
Lin Xueying looked at Zhou Xun, feeling extremely satisfied in her heart!
This was the lover she had chosen, who has now grown into a towering force capable of protecting a nation.
"The sect's trivial matters can be handled by the disciples. You should take it easy!" Zhou Xun replied.
"That's right, Xueying, you should just focus on your cultivation and aim for Core Formation; we can handle the rest!"
At the side, Master Yun'an nodded in agreement.
