”Young Master… I…”

Zuoyan Xiaoyu looked at Yi Yun with watery eyes filled with grievance. This was the first day she was serving Yi Yun but she had already made a mistake. Furthermore, it was on such an occasion.

”Itʼs fine.”

Yi Yun stood up and helped Zuoyan Xiaoyu up. He looked at a girl dressed in maidservant garb nearby. He knew very well that the maidservant had tripped Zuoyan Xiaoyu. It appeared unintentional but the trip managed to make Zuoyan Xiaoyu lose her balance. Following that, someone had changed the spatial dimension laws, causing Zuoyan Xiaoyu to fall to the ground.

Upon noticing Yi Yunʼs gaze, the maidservant felt a little apprehensive. However, one look at her master emboldened her. She explained, ”It wasnʼt intentional. She was walking over and happened to slam into my foot.”

Yi Yunʼs gaze fluttered to a lanky youth behind the maidservant.

He was holding a cup of wine with eyes narrowed. He appeared listless but Yi Yun knew that he was the one who used laws to prevent Zuoyan Xiaoyu from maintaining her balance.

Yi Yun looked at a few stewards in the room. All of them remained composed, as though they had not noticed everything that had just happened.

Yi Yun sneered inwardly. There were many people that let things happen if they were not personally affected. When it came to these slippery people, personal disciples were not to be offended. The best action to take was to feign ignorance.

Upon sensing Yi Yunʼs gaze, the lanky youth met it, his slit-like eyes filled with derision.

”Do you have a grudge against me?”

Yi Yun asked as the lanky youth sneered. He did not answer, as though it was beneath him to even speak to Yi Yun.

At that moment, a laughter came from outside. ”Hahaha, is that Junior Brother Yi? How is it? Are you accustomed to living in the Myriad God Ridge?”

Yi Yun turned around and saw four personal disciples appear at the entrance one after another. They were the ones who previously oversaw the entrance test.

And the person who spoke was the youth with thick brows, Song Bowen.

”We finally rushed here for the banquet after administering the test until sundown. It sure wasnʼt easy on us.” Song Bowen stretched his arms as though he was exhausted.

Behind him, Ji and Junior Sister Jing did not speak. They only glanced at Yi Yun. They had all seen the conflict that had just happened.

The quartet took their seats as Ji sat with the last disciple out of the four. As for Junior Sister Jing, she sat beside a girl. The remaining Song Bowen sat beside the listless lanky youth.

With Song Bowen taking his seat, the lanky youthʼs maidservant automatically helped Song Bowen to a plate of food.

Yi Yun realized the situation with the scene unfolding. Song Bowen and the lanky youth clearly had a great relationship. They had probably discussed this beforehand.

”Junior Brother Yi, it seems you have attracted the misfortune of staying in Sunken Moon Tower.”

Beside Yi Yun, Zhou Bingfeng chuckled through a voice transmission while hugging a charming beauty.

”Why do you say so?” Yi Yun asked indifferently. He seemed particularly unfazed, as though the food that spilled had nothing to do with him.

”Junior Brother Yi, you might not be aware that even the residences of the personal disciples are stratified. Sunken Moon Tower is one of the better places to be. By being the sect masterʼs disciple that stays in Sunken Moon Tower, it is only natural to be targeted.”

Oh?

Yi Yun did not know that Sunken Moon Tower was in such demand. In that case, his treatment was to be expected. In these peopleʼs minds, he had stirred the Ascending Dragon Cauldron due to his ʼwisdom root.’ He was only lucky to become a personal disciple, he didn’t earn it by his own merit. As such, how could they be convinced of his tenure?

Adding in the conflicts he had with Song Bowen during the test, and it was easy to explain everything that was happening.

And at that moment, Song Bowen feigned surprise as he looked at the food that had splattered on the ground. ”Eh? Whatʼs going on?”

The lanky youth beside him lifted his eyelids and languidly said, ”Nothing much. Some maidservant was clumsy and spilled food all over.”
