Luo Family

After entering the city, Yuan said to Luo Ling, "The guards mentioned that the current Lord of this city is in a troubled situation. What's bothering him, and how can we help him?"

"Well, like this, Daoist Yuan. A few days ago, some foolish adventurer went to the mountain to hunt, and he accidentally killed the Mountain Lord's son. This greatly angered the Mountain Lord, who immediately blamed our city and vowed to send an army of monsters to immediately trample over us."

"Mountain Lord? Is that a person or...?" Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"Master Mountain is a terrifying ferocious beast in the fifth level of the Spirit Warrior realm, and it is a kind of guard for Mount Pang that is right next to our Pang City. If it attacked our city, only my father would also be in the fifth rank.The Spirit Warrior realm level could fight him, but then he would not be able to protect the city from other monsters, either, and we are currently short on manpower with around 50 guards with most of them being at Spirit Apprentice level." Luo Ling explained the situation to him.

"This is why we seek whatever help we can get. If Daoist Yuan is willing to lend you your strength to us, it will definitely help us a lot, and we will not waste any effort to pay you afterwards." Luo Ling said to him with his head lowered.

"Since this city needs help and the strongest threat only exists at the fifth level of the Spirit Warrior realm, there is no reason why I refuse to give you my help." Yuan nodded.

Now that he was at the fourth level of the Spirit Warrior realm, he should have no problem fighting even a seventh level Spirit Warrior, let alone a Spirit Warrior at the fifth level.

"Thank you very much, Daoist Yuan! My dad will be happy to hear it later!" Luo Ling bowed to him again before they continued walking.

Moments later, they arrived at a large building located in the middle of the city.

"Welcome to my family's humble home." Luo Ling said to him when they were at the front gate.

"..."

Yuan looked at the decorated building with wide eyes. How can such a place be described as 'humble'?

"Welcome back, Young Miss. Welcome to Lord's Manor, honored guests." The guards near the gate greeted them as they approached.

"Where's my dad?" he asked them.

"Lord Luo should have finished with the other guests as we speak—"

"Oh! The honored guest! You're finally here!"

A middle-aged man wearing luxurious official clothes suddenly ran out of the building amid the sentry punishment.

"Welcome to my humble home, honored guest! The guards have informed me of your presence. Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to our request even though you yourself are very busy." Lord Luo extended her hand to Yuan to shake hands.

"Don't worry about that. Besides, we're not too busy." Yuan said as he accepted Lord Luo's handshake.

"Please, let's continue talking inside."

"Yes, dad." Luo Ling nodded.

"Excuse me for a moment, Daoist Yuan." He said to her before leaving the room.

"Honored guests, once again, let me thank you for coming here." Lord Luo said to them a moment later.

"Just call me Daoist Yuan, and I have heard everything about your situation from Luo Ling," Yuan said to him. "You need help defending the city, right?"

"That's right, Daoist Yuan. Although it sounds embarrassing, since it is only a fifth level Spirit Warrior, I do not have what it takes to maintain the city in this dire situation. We usually don't have to worry about the beasts inside. Mount Pang because there was a peace treaty between the city and the Mountain Lord, but because of what happened with the son of the Mountain King, the treaty was broken.at least save the innocent people in the city, and save the city, but unfortunately, the Mountain Master was too angry to not care." Lord Luo spoke with a sighing voice.

"Daois Yuan, the city and I will forever be grateful even if you can help us take care of the weaker monsters, because the people in the city I am most worried about, he said, and I will handle the Mountain Lord myself. "

Yuan nodded his head and said, "Okay, we'll help you defend the city."

"Thank you! Thank you very much, Daoist Yuan!"

A while later, Luo Ling returned to the room with a teapot and two cups along with two others who seemed to be of Yuan's age.

"Let me introduce you to my other children, Daoist Yuan." Lord Luo pointed at the handsome young man and said, "This is my eldest son Luo Ming, who is 20 years old and is at the first level of the Spirit Warrior."

"Hello, fellow Daoist." Luo Ming nodded at him.

Lord Luo then moved to the beautiful young lady beside her and said, "This is my youngest child, Luo Li, who is the same age as Daoist Yuan and is at the peak Spirit Apprentice level."

"It's nice to meet someone as talented and handsome as Daoist Yuan." She gave him a graceful bow with the color on her cheeks a little reddish.

'Handsome…?' Yuan raised his eyebrows. This was the first time anyone had praised him for being handsome.

'Now I think about it, I don't know what I look like in this game ...' Yuan suddenly realized this, as he had never really cared about his own appearance, therefore why had he not thought about it until now.
