"Vice City Lord Weng, Dean Zhong, I'll have to trouble you both to lend more assistance with Qingyun Immortal City's affairs from here on!"
Watching Envoy Wang's figure vanish into the Teleportation Array, Zhou Ling cupped his hands toward City Lord Weng and Dean Zhong.
The two of them now had the most experience in managing Qingyun Immortal City.
"Rest assured, City Lord!"
"Rest assured, City Lord!"
Vice City Lord Weng and Dean Zhong both cupped their hands toward Chen Ling.

After Zhou Ling returned from Tianxia Immortal City, his position as City Lord of Qingyun Immortal City had been thoroughly secured.

Zhou Ling did not know how he had offended her.
He pondered that she might feel his marriage to Wang Qingshang had been somewhat unfair to Xin'er.
