The next morning, the sun shone through the clouds and onto the streets of Juling City.

After breakfast, Chang Qing took Ling Jiuan and others to the City Lord's Mansion.

Along the way, he was feeling uneasy, not knowing how the city lord Sikong Wen would react.

When they arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, Sikong Wen was sitting in the lobby with a frown on his face, as if he was thinking about something important.

Seeing Chang Qing, he couldn't help but frown, with a hint of displeasure in his tone.

"Chang Qing? Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to reflect on yourself at home?"

Chang Qing bowed and answered respectfully.

"Your Highness, I have made the acquaintance of several young men who are willing to help with the matter of the Demon Phoenix."

As he spoke, he turned and looked at Ling Jiuan and the others, with a glimmer of expectation in his eyes.

Sikong Wen then looked at Ling Jiuan and the others, his eyes swept over them, and then he was stunned.

He didn't expect that Chang Qing would get to know such an extraordinary person.

he asked doubtfully.

"How many are there?"

Ling Jiuan cupped his hands, his voice clear and powerful.

"Xinghuo City is safe for a long time."

Chen Yan also cupped his hands, with a hint of pride in his tone.

"Chen Yan, the Chen family of Xinghuo City."

Sikong Wen raised his eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He didn't expect that these two people were actually the sister-in-law of the young master of Xinghuo City and the young master of the Chen family, both of whom were young talents.

He looked at Chang Qing, his tone a little playful.

"Chang Qing, you brought me two important people this time."

Chang Qing was stunned, obviously not expecting these two people to have such identities.

He scratched his head in embarrassment.

"This... I didn't expect it either."

Ling Jiuan looked at Sikong Wen with a serious tone.

"Sikong City Lord, since you are helpless now, why don't you let us give it a try. But please protect Chang Qing, the chief steward. He is a good man. Don't let the Zhou family bully him."

Sikong Wen was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

He could see that Ling Jiuan and his companions were no ordinary people, and perhaps they could really solve the problem of the Demon Phoenix.

He said after a moment's silence.

"In that case, then go ahead and give it a try! I'll let Chang Qing tell you the details!"

As he spoke, he looked at Chang Qing, with a glimmer of expectation and trust in his eyes.

After the few of them left the main hall, the news that Chang Qing had been reinstated quickly spread throughout the City Lord's Mansion.

They walked down the corridor and met other people from the City Lord's Mansion.

Most people were respectful to Chang Qing, bowing and greeting him, with admiration and joy in their eyes.

But there were also people who looked at Chang Qing with sarcastic tones, as if they were jealous of his good luck.

"Hey, isn't this Chang Qing? How come he was called back by the city lord? What good luck!"

A man dressed in gorgeous clothes and with a sarcastic look on his face walked up, his tone full of sarcasm.

Chang Qing didn't care about it at all. He just glanced at him indifferently, then continued to move forward with Ling Jiuan and others.

He knew that such people were not uncommon in the City Lord's Mansion. They were always jealous of others' achievements but unwilling to put in the effort to fight for them.

He brought Ling Jiuan and others to the wing room of the City Lord's Mansion.

The environment here is elegant and the facilities are complete, obviously prepared for VIPs.

Chang Qing explained.

"After all, Miss Ling and Master Chen have special identities, so they can't stay in my own house forever. It will be safer and more convenient here."

Ling Jiuan and Chen Yan nodded to show their understanding.

They knew that their identities would indeed bring some trouble to Chang Qing, so living in the City Lord's Mansion was a better choice.

In the side room, Chang Qing introduced the situation of the Demon Phoenix in detail to Ling Jiuan and others, as well as the various methods that the City Lord's Mansion had tried before.

Ling Jiuan and Chen Yan listened attentively, asked questions from time to time, and Chang Qing answered them patiently.

Finally, Ling Jiuan looked at Chang Qing.

"Butler Changqing, don't worry. We will do our best to deal with the demon phoenix and save face for you and the City Lord's Mansion."

Chang Qing looked at Ling Jiuan and the others with gratitude.

He knew that he had met a true noble person this time.

He bowed, his voice full of respect and gratitude.

"Thank you, young heroes! Chang Qing will definitely cooperate with us to deal with the demon phoenix together!"

After settling down in the City Lord's Mansion, Jiuan's life became regular and simple.

In addition to practicing every day, she would discuss strategies to deal with the Demon Phoenix with Chen Yan and Liuying.

She had no other thoughts and just waited quietly for the Demon Phoenix to appear.

However, before she could wait for the Demon Phoenix to appear, a dandy young man appeared first.

That day, she was sitting in the yard practicing, feeling the surrounding spiritual energy flowing through her body, when she suddenly heard a noisy sound of footsteps.

She opened her eyes and saw a man in fancy clothes swaggering in, followed by several followers.

"I heard that there were three beauties in your house, so I came to visit you!"

The man spoke arrogantly, looking Ling Jiuan up and down with a malicious smile on his lips.

Ling Jiuan frowned slightly. She hated this kind of playboy the most.

She glanced at the man coldly, with a hint of disdain in her tone.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

The man was stunned, obviously not expecting Ling Jiuan to be so cold.

He chuckled.

"Who am I? I am a distinguished guest of the City Lord's Mansion, the nephew of City Lord Sikong Wen, Sikong Yun! Of course I came here to see the three legendary beauties!"

As he spoke, he took a few steps closer to Ling Jiuan, his eyes revealing a bit of greed and vulgarity.

This made Jiuan feel disgusted, and she stood up suddenly and said in a cold voice.

"Get lost! You are not welcome here!"

As she spoke, she moved and was about to drive Sikong Yun away.

However, Sikong Yun was not afraid. Instead, he looked at Ling Jiuan provocatively.

"Oh~ You have quite a temper! But I like it! Hehe~ I won't leave today unless you play with me!"

As he said this, he was about to reach out to hold Ling Jiuan's hand.

Before he could touch Ling Jiuan, he was knocked over by Liu Zhu's spiritual power.

Liu Zhu flashed and stood in front of Ling Jiuan, with anger and vigilance revealed in his eyes.

"How dare you! Do you think you can have such ambitions towards my master?"

There was a hint of anger in Liu Zhu's voice, and she was very dissatisfied with Sikong Yun's behavior.

Seeing Liuzhu and Liuying, Sikong Yun's eyes became even more obscene.

He chuckled.

"Hey, there are two beauties, why not keep me company!"

As he said this, he was about to get up from the ground and pounce on Liuzhu and Liuying.

However, before he could get close to the two, he was restrained by Liuying's spiritual power.

Liuying looked at him coldly, with a hint of disdain in her tone.

"Humph! You think you can get involved with us? You really overestimate your own abilities!"

Sikong Yun was bound by spiritual power and could not move, with a look of fear and anger on his face.

He didn't expect that these two seemingly weak women could be so powerful.

He struggled to free himself, but to no avail.

Ling Jiuan looked at the scene coldly and felt disgusted in his heart.

She didn't expect that there would be such a playboy in the City Lord's Mansion. It was really disgusting.

She turned around and was about to leave the yard, not wanting to see Sikong Yun, this disgusting person, again.

However, at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Stop! What are you doing?"
