Entering the Immortal City of Nan Yue, the group found themselves in a place where the energy concentration was at least ten times that of the outside world. The Nan Yue Immortal Kingdom, as a seventh-rank force, was clearly not to be underestimated.
"Hey, Master, senior brothers and sisters, buy whatever you want! I'll pay!" Dugu Xiao Yi declared proudly, puffing out her chest. This was her territory, and as the most cherished little princess of the Nan Yue Emperor, she certainly had the authority.
"Heh heh, then we won't be polite!"
"Mmm, mmm, little junior sister is mighty and domineering~"
"It's rare to relax, let's hurry~~"
Thus, Feng Chen and the others began to shop without restraint. Of course, their master would pay first, and then Dugu Xiao Yi would reimburse all the money to her master.
"By the way, Master," Dugu Xiao Yi said, watching her senior siblings shop happily, her heart filled with joy. At a certain moment, she seemed to recall something and asked Ye Xuan, her cheeks flushed, "I still don't know your name."
"Heh heh, my name is Ye Xuan."
"Oh!?" Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Dugu Xiao Yi's beautiful eyes were filled with surprise, and then she exclaimed in astonishment, "Ye Xuan? Master, your... your name is the same as the leader of my idol, the Xuan Alliance."
"No!"
"Ye Xuan? Master, could it be... you are my idol!!" At this moment, Dugu Xiao Yi felt as if she had discovered the most impossible thing in the world, staring intently at Ye Xuan with her big, unblinking eyes.
Seeing Dugu Xiao Yi's reaction, Ye Xuan dotingly flicked her forehead. "If you are referring to the Xuan Alliance," he said calmly, "then that indeed belongs to me." His words, however, were like a thunderclap that exploded in Dugu Xiao Yi's mind, instantly rendering her unable to think. The Xuan Alliance truly belonged to her master. This sentence seemed to possess some kind of magic, echoing in Dugu Xiao Yi's ears again and again. Her master was actually... her idol. My heavens! This... is too much of a coincidence. Excitement, thrill, exhilaration... wait. All sorts of emotions surged within her at this moment, making it almost unbelievable.
"Wow~"
"My master is my idol, I'm so happy~~" In that instant, Dugu Xiao Yi almost leaped three feet into the air, unable to contain her excitement. It was over, happiness had come too suddenly, she was completely unprepared!
"Master, does this mean you have already reached the Immortal Lord realm??" As the little princess of the Nan Yue Immortal Kingdom and the granddaughter of the Nine Nether Sacred Master, Dugu Xiao Yi naturally knew much more than ordinary people. Moreover, she wanted to know as much as possible about her idol! She had heard about her master destroying the Gluttonous Sacred Land.
"I suppose so," Ye Xuan said with a slight smile. He wondered what kind of reaction Dugu Xiao Yi would have if she knew her master was a sixth-rank Immortal Lord.
"As expected!" Dugu Xiao Yi's beautiful eyes flashed with brilliance. She understood very well that even her father, who was at the first-rank Immortal Lord realm, could not annihilate the old ancestors guarding the Gluttonous Sacred Land. This meant her master's strength was even greater than her father's.
"Heh heh, that's great!" Thinking of this, Dugu Xiao Yi's pretty face was filled with excitement. "In that case, I can brag for at least a year, no, ten years!"
"Then, Master, I'm going to browse too." "It's been a long time since I've been to the Immortal City's market. I wonder if it's still the same as before."
With her spirits high, Dugu Xiao Yi looked around the market. Everything seemed beautiful, as the saying goes, "A person in good spirits feels pleased with everything." However, good times do not last long, and soon Dugu Xiao Yi encountered 'trouble'.
"This pendant, I'll take it for a thousand top-grade Immortal Crystals." Dugu Xiao Yi, spotting a crystal pendant that looked very appealing, decided to buy it. However, at that very moment. Not far away, a seductive woman said coquettishly to the young man beside her, "Young Master Lu, I really want that pendant, could you buy it for me?"
"Oh!?" Lu Zihang heard her and glanced in Dugu Xiao Yi's direction, then said nonchalantly, "Of course, no problem." "Let alone a mere pendant, I can even pluck the stars from the sky for you, girl, but heh heh... you'll have to serve your young master well." With that, Lu Zihang put his arm around the seductive woman's slender waist, then flicked her nose, his dissolute persona on full display.
"Watch this." "I'll buy it for you right away!" With that said, Lu Zihang directly interrupted Dugu Xiao Yi's transaction with the stall owner.
"Hold on!" Lu Zihang stepped forward and looked at the pendant in the vendor's hand. "This pendant, I'll take it for two thousand top-grade Immortal Stones."
"Uh, this..." The stall owner fell silent, his eyes flickering. Clearly, the price doubling made him tempted. However, Dugu Xiao Yi's pretty face turned cold. As the little princess of the Nan Yue Immortal Kingdom and the Saintess of the Nine Nether Sacred Land, she was always treated like a treasure wherever she went. How could she endure such treatment?
"Five thousand top-grade Immortal Stones!" Dugu Xiao Yi narrowed her eyes. She hadn't expected anyone in the Nan Yue Immortal City to dare to fight her for something. Feng Chen and the others were also stunned, then looked at Lu Zihang opposite them with pity. Unfortunately, they didn't know their little junior sister's identity.
"Heh heh, six thousand!" Lu Zihang glanced at Dugu Xiao Yi, and then threateningly said, "Girl, my maternal grandfather is the Duke of the Nan Yue Immortal Kingdom, and my uncle is the commander of the enforcement team. Do you understand what it means to contend with me?"
"Duke??" Hearing Lu Zihang introduce himself, Dugu Xiao Yi was indeed taken aback. "What a high official."
"Are you scared? I warn you, if you're sensible..."
"Ten thousand top-grade Immortal Crystals!" Before Lu Zihang could finish speaking, Dugu Xiao Yi's voice rang out, almost causing the smug Lu Zihang to suffer a serious internal injury.
"You!!!" Then, Lu Zihang's eyes flashed with cold light. "Good! Very good!!" "I never expected that there would be such a backbone of a young girl in the Nan Yue Immortal City." As his voice fell, Lu Zihang's subordinates immediately surrounded the area, including Ye Xuan and his group. Dugu Xiao Yi looked at the scene and was surprised. She looked at the several Dao Ancestor realm cultivators beside her. "You... you are going to attack me? How dare you."
