Just You and Me, No Need to Act

Bai Canglan is dead.

The Desolate Wind City has also undergone a complete transformation.

There was virtually no unrest, and everything in the city remained orderly.

This is enough to show that the people in the city have suffered under Bai Canglan for a long time.

Many people even heard that it was after the princess seized power.

They all cheered and jumped for joy.

Bai Qingluo truly embodies the will of the people.

Meanwhile, in the front hall of the city lord's mansion...

Bai Qingluo sat in the first seat.

The subordinates were Chen Ning and the two Half-Step Martial Venerable Realm retainers.

These two are now the only ones who can protect the Desolate Wind City.

However, there is still some unease.

In the past, they were protected by Ancient Lamp Venerable, but now both Ancient Lamp Venerable and that One-Star Martial Venerable who wielded the long spear have perished.

The strength of Desolate Wind City has undoubtedly been diminished.

Fortunately, though.

The Grey Wolf Tribe also suffered heavy losses.

Their territory was also occupied by the White Wolf Tribe.

Previously, the territory closest to Desolate Wind City was the territory of the Grey Wolf Tribe.

It can be said that the greatest threat came from the Grey Wolf Tribe.

But after Young Master Chen eliminated Xueliao and killed several powerful members of the Grey Wolf Tribe...

The Grey Wolf Tribe was quickly taken over by the White Wolf Tribe.

That territory.

It has now completely become the territory of the White Wolf Tribe.

The two powerful retainers looked worried and said, "Princess, now that Ancient Lamp Venerable has fallen, Desolate Wind City is weak and vulnerable to a sneak attack from the White Wolf Tribe. We must make arrangements as soon as possible. Should we send envoys to the White Wolf Tribe, or offer generous gifts to ensure the safety of Desolate Wind City?"

Regarding the Grey Wolf Tribe.

They had naturally heard about it as well.

Bai Qingluo pursed her red lips and looked at Chen Ning.

"No need to worry. From now on, the White Wolf Tribe and Desolate Wind City will be allies. Tomorrow, the White Wolf Tribe Clan Chief will come to Desolate Wind City to discuss the specifics of the alliance."

Chen Ning smiled.

A casual remark.

This once again plunged the entire pre-chamber into silence.

The two worshippers, in particular, were completely dumbfounded.

In the past, even when a peace agreement was reached with the Grey Wolf Tribe...

It was only after the Desolate Wind City bowed down and offered many gifts that it was able to obtain peace.

The Xueliao of the Grey Wolf Tribe has always been high and mighty.

But judging from what Young Master Chen said...

It turned out that the chieftain of the White Wolf Tribe personally came to visit.

This sincerity!

That attitude!

It was clearly not Princess Chong.

That must be because of Young Master Chen.

This is about saving face.

It's absolutely enormous.

Moreover, they noticed that, although on the surface, the princess held the real power.

But whenever Young Master Chen opened his mouth...

She always bowed slightly, behaving like a subordinate.

Regardless, they had witnessed Chen Gongzi's strength firsthand.

I am naturally filled with utmost admiration.

"Yu'er, you need to know more about the City Lord's Mansion; I'll entrust you with the specific arrangements."

The business is over.

Bai Qingluo then looked at Bai Yu'er was standing at the back.

She ultimately killed Bai Canglan with her own hands.

He can be considered a person who has made contributions.

Moreover, Bai Qingluo had always felt sorry for the other party.

Therefore, Bai Yu'er was allowed to stay.

Responsible for some matters within the city lord's mansion.

Bai Yu'er replied with deep gratitude, "Thank you, sister. I will definitely manage the City Lord's Mansion well for you."

"Well, since there's nothing else, everyone may leave."

Bai Qingluo rubbed her temples.

He looked somewhat tired.

The group clasped their hands in a fist salute and left.

Chen Ning strode outside.

Bai Qingluo arranged for him to stay in the best room in the city lord's mansion.

Extremely luxurious.

From this point alone, everyone could see how much Bai Qingluo valued Young Master Chen.

Bai Qingluo watched Chen Ning's departing figure.

Though reluctant, I knew he would eventually leave.

As for repaying her debt of gratitude, she could only do so by guarding the Desolate Wind City in Desolate Province. When Chen Ning needed her, she would wholeheartedly become his help.

But at that moment...

She saw Bai Yu'er's figure move closer to Chen Ning.

She frowned, a hint of displeasure in her eyes.

Chen Ning was also slightly taken aback.

I was originally planning to go back and rest.

But Bai Yu'er suddenly moved closer, seemingly striking a flirtatious pose.

A voice rang out as well. "Young Master Chen, I heard that you were the one who saved Qingluo on the way. I am truly grateful."

"It's alright, I'll head back now."

Chen Ning instinctively felt a bit repulsed by the other person, and coupled with his genuine fatigue, he turned and left.

Bai Yu'er stayed where she was.

His eyes were fixed on Chen Ning's retreating figure.

Her plan has gone perfectly.

They used Bai Qingluo to eliminate Ancient Lamp Venerable and Bai Canglan.

She then personally killed the man she hated most.

Bai Yu'er, however, did not become complacent because of this.

Because she knew that this alone was not enough.

She and Bai Qingluo never had any real feelings for each other.

In the past, she even often joined Bai Canglan in Bai Qingluo.

Bai Qingluo might spare her now, out of consideration for the fact that she killed Bai Canglan.

But as time goes on...

After everyone had forgotten about it.

She certainly couldn't stay in the city lord's mansion and enjoy a life of luxury.

So.

She had to find a way out for herself.

Hook up with a strong enough thigh.

And this young master Chen is precisely the best candidate.

It's obvious.

His younger sister was able to take over Desolate Wind City entirely thanks to him.

And if she could seduce Young Master Chen...

Even if they cannot obtain official recognition.

Even if it's just a one-night stand.

That was enough to make Bai Qingluo wary, and thus dare not touch her.

However, this young master Chen is more difficult to approach than I imagined.

But she was still confident; after all, he was a young man full of Blood Qi.

How could there be no demand?

However, little did they know...

Chen Ning was surrounded by stunningly beautiful women.

Meng Yuyi was like a fairy descended from heaven.

Cang Yue, a sexy and mature woman who fantasizes about destroying the ancestors of jockeys.

Xiao Mei, a bewitching enchantress.

And then there's the adorable Su Ling'er.

Now there's another rebellious disciple who's determined to conquer him.

Having faced them every day, Chen Ning had developed an incredibly strong resistance to them.

If it were someone like Bai Qingluo, who has a somewhat heroic air, it would be barely acceptable.

As for Bai Yu'er, a common and vulgar woman, she was completely beneath his notice.

Therefore, Chen Ning would rather go to sleep than waste another word talking to Bai Yu'er.

However, Chen Ning didn't want to pay any attention to Bai Yu'er.

One man summoned Bai Yu'er late at night.

Bai Yu'er nervously arrived at the front hall.

It just felt a bit eerie.

"Little sister, it's so late, is there anything you need to tell your older sister?"

Bai Yu'er forced a smile.

Bai Qingluo looked down at me and said, "Yu'er, you've never liked me all these years, but now you're being so polite to me. Are you not used to it?"

"This... I was blind before, but now that you've taken over Desolate Wind City, it's the inevitable trend and the will of the people. I deeply regret not taking better care of you back then..."

Bai Yu'er put on a very regretful expression.

"Alright, it's just the two of us here, no need to act anymore."

Bai Qingluo spoke calmly.

Bai Yu'er said in a panic, "Sister, I really meant it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have risked killing Bai Canglan for you and deceiving Ancient Lamp Venerable!"

"I didn't expose you because of some consideration for our relationship, but you absolutely shouldn't have crossed my line."

Bai Qingluo's tone grew colder.
