When Lu Hong returned to the small courtyard in Lan Guifang, Xu Peipei was already standing quietly at the door, waiting. Her official attire had already been replaced with a blue chiffon gown; her fair skin and exquisite makeup unmistakably displayed her status as a top-tier beauty.
However, after witnessing the breathtaking talents of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, Lu Hong was long unmoved by this earthly beauty.
Seeing Lu Hong return, Xu Peipei hurried forward and said, "Master, you're back!"
"Next time, just let me in directly. I think your skills should be capable of that, right?"
Xu Peipei nodded and added, "The Sect Leader has been informed of your hypothesis, and he trusts your judgment. However, persuading Your Majesty requires more deliberation. The Sect Leader hopes you can provide more intelligence about the Fierce Beast, so he can report in detail to get Your Majesty's confidence."
