Chapter 41: The Rising Storm! Open and Secret Struggles_1

...

Over the past few days, Lu Xianghui had heard that many outstanding senior brothers and sisters from the academy desired to join Aunt Li Yao's retinue. However, no one had yet succeeded.

Yet unexpectedly, Aunt Li Yao invited him on her own initiative.

With a thudding heart, Lu Xianghui thoroughly considered his feelings and suppressed his desires then respectfully bowed and said, "Aunt Li Yao, your affection for me is etched in my heart. However, a follower should provide significant assistance to you to make the recruitment worthwhile. I fear that my limited knowledge and mediocre bloodline will not be capable enough for such an enormous responsibility. Only a Sky Pride can truly befit the role of a follower."

He was aware that if he were to be successful in becoming a follower of Aunt Li Yao, his life's trajectory would profoundly change. Moreover, his entire clan would rise along with him, even chickens and dogs would ascend to heaven.
