Hearing these words, Xuanyuan Chen could not help but ponder inwardly. "Coming to the Southern Domain this time was originally for the sake of the Xuanyuan Secret Realm. Although I spent some time in the Bronze Tomb, the harvest has been quite abundant. Murong Uncle has treated me with exceptional care, and staying behind would certainly be a good choice. After all, I am eager to use this Pride Assembly to properly prove my strength, not to mention the generous rewards. This is truly a beneficial matter in many ways."
Just as Xuanyuan Chen was lost in thought, a voice abruptly interrupted his train of thought. Murong Xiande looked toward Xuanyuan Chen with a face full of anticipation and said, "I wonder what my young friend thinks? Could you stay for a few more days, so that this old man may fulfill the duties of a host?" Seeing this expression on Murong Xiande's face, Xuanyuan Chen immediately wore a look of flattered surprise, hurriedly cupped his fists in salute, and replied, "I leave everything to the arrangement of Uncle." Hearing this, Murong Xiande instantly beamed with joy, his hearty laughter echoing throughout the grand hall as he repeatedly uttered the word "Good."
Meanwhile, Murong Guan stood nearby frozen in a daze, feeling as though several dark lines were slowly appearing above her head. This was the first time she felt that the father before her was vastly different from the imposing image she had always known in her heart.
