After pledging his loyalty, the Great Dream Valley Master cautiously raised his head and ventured a question:
"Might I ask... which hidden faction under your command is this [Xuanjian Mansion], my lord?"
At those words,
the corner of Ye Li's mouth twitched.
But he concealed it perfectly and casually made something up:
"It's a new faction I'll be expanding into this area in a couple of days."
"Any other questions?"
The Great Dream Valley Master's heart jolted, and he immediately bowed his head:
"No, none whatsoever!"
He did not care in the slightest how large this [Xuanjian Mansion] currently was.
He did not even care whether it existed yet!
Because none of that mattered!
With the formidable man before him presiding over it, even if Xuanjian Mansion was nothing but an empty plot of land today, tomorrow it would be a supreme holy land worshipped by the countless billions of beings in the Primordial Sea!
At the sight of this,

He was no fool!
He had seen everything clearly. Not only had the Great Dream Valley Master survived, he had also snagged a peerless Treasure Pellet and transformed into a regional governor of [Xuanjian Mansion]!
How was this a punishment?
This was an incredible opportunity!!
The Ink-Wash Sect Leader immediately gritted his teeth, his magic power surging as he prepared to follow the Great Dream Valley Master's example and shatter his own foundation!
But the instant he moved,
Thump!
A heavy hand pressed down on his shoulder, forcibly suppressing the magic power he had just gathered!
The Ink-Wash Sect Leader looked back in horror.
Standing behind him was none other than the expressionless Divine Lord Lihuo!
"There's no need to perform the same trick
