Outside Baoyan, Song Zheng, who understood his inner emotions, solemnly said, "Don't worry, my subordinates will handle it correctly..."
....
On the other side, the teenager around Xia Houyun was always a little uneasy.
The young man's name was Lin Lang, and he was a member of the Xiahou clan.
The various noble families of the Great Zhou Dynasty were actually sects. In addition to their direct descendants, they also had members with different surnames.
These members with different surnames were adopted into the families and practiced their techniques. With their accomplishments, they could also become prominent members of the family!
And Lin Lang was a member of the Xiahou clan.
He was also a talented disciple of the Xiahou clan!
Currently, he had reached the fifth level of cultivation in the Nirvana Realm, which was considered extraordinary talent, and he had always been highly valued by the senior members of the Xiahou clan.
Lin Lang had grown up with Xia Houyun since childhood, and their bond was very deep.
In Lin Lang's heart, he had developed a deep love for Xia Houyun.
He even regarded Xia Houyun as his forbidden love!
But Lin Lang felt uneasy about the way the eldest son of the Sushenhou Mansion had looked at Xia Houyun just now...
He always felt that the gaze of Sushenhou's son towards Xia Houyun carried a hint of desire...
However, Sushenhou's son didn't show anything on his face.
And even if he did, Lin Lang couldn't do anything about it given his status.
Currently, Lin Lang was both guarding and hoping.
He hoped that he had simply misread the situation...
Lin Lang looked at the girl beside him, feeling tender and pity in his heart.
The girl had been burdened with family expectations and pressure since childhood and had never truly smiled.
In his heart, Lin Lang silently said, "Yun'er, don't worry, I will definitely join you in the future to revive the Xiahou clan!
I will always be by your side...
Unless I die!"
In the imperial capital, Sushenhou Mansion.
The surroundings were ethereal, and a formidable aura permeated the air, revealing the tremendous influence of Sushenhou Mansion.
In an exceptionally majestic hall, Chu Xu was in communication with the system.
The system panel appeared before Chu Xu.
"Host: Chu Xu
Identity: Son of Sushenhou Mansion
Cultivation: Five layers of Xuan Dan realm.
Physique: Taixuan Divine Body
Practice technique: Taikoo Shenxuan Sutra (current level: three)
Magic weapon: Xuan Fa Dao Sword (Heavenly Grade), Zhenzhou Shending, Tian Luo Umbrella (Heavenly Grade), Volume of Tribulation (Killing Treasure)
Luck level: 1
Extra luck value: 60
Golden finger: None
Villain value: 56000"
Looking at his 60 points of luck, Chu Xu felt satisfied.
What is the most powerful trait of a lucky individual?
It's not talent, but luck!
With the protection of luck, a lucky person can turn bad situations into good, just like an invincible cockroach.
Chu Tian had always been the target of the princess's desire to get close to, but he had managed to survive in this crisis-ridden Sushenhou Mansion until now!
And now that Chu Xu had gained 60 points of luck, planning against Chu Tian would become much easier...
With a smile on his face, Chu Xu immediately changed his expression and opened the system mall, which was accessible through WeChat.
The system mall was filled with various treasures, including magic weapons, elixirs, and magical techniques.
Chu Xu even saw the Sacred Artifacts listed in the system mall!
This was astounding.
Sacred Artifacts were objects capable of altering the fate of Zhongzhou. There were only five Sacred Artifacts in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, and the Emperor Ji clan possessed three of them exclusively.
It demonstrated how rare and precious Sacred Artifacts were!
Yet, the system mall actually offered the option to exchange for Sacred Artifacts.
If Sushenhou Mansion could obtain a few more Sacred Artifacts... perhaps it could rival the Emperor Ji clan in the future!
However, the villain value required for a Sacred Artifact was exorbitant, with an overwhelming number of zeros that Chu Xu couldn't even fathom at the moment.
Furthermore, most of the Sacred Artifacts and many treasures in the mall were grayed out...
Chu Xu furrowed his brow and asked, "System, what's going on?"
The system replied, "The system mall is divided into different levels, which are related to the host's level of luck.
Currently, the host's luck level is 1, so only the first-level mall is accessible!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Xu nodded slowly.
It seemed that in order to exchange for formidable treasures like Sacred Artifacts, he would need to defeat other lucky individuals and seize their luck...
