In the banquet hall on the second floor, Zhou Yuqian beckoned his subordinates, "Go and call City Lord Yun."

City Lord Yun was not far away entertaining the newly arrived City Lords of Guangcheng and Qingcheng. He quickly walked over and said, "Young Master Zhou, what are your instructions?"

The question was directed at Zhou Yuqian, but his eyes were fixed on the deep-eyed Master Zhou. Zhou Yuqian whispered something in City Lord Yun's ear, and City Lord Yun shuddered at the sound, his smile fading considerably. "I'll do it right away!"

After hearing Zhou Yuqian's secret words, City Lord Yun took action without stopping. Some women in white dresses in the banquet hall on the second floor were politely expelled.

"Miss, please move downstairs!"

"Dear guest, please move downstairs!"

"This lady..."

"Why are you guys doing this?"

Yuncheng's Fan Zhenren said calmly, "This is the order of our Yuncheng Lord. Please obey!"

"Please don't make things difficult for us..."

"If you have any questions, please find City Lord Yun and Young Master Zhou Zhou!"

After Zhou Wushao moved out, almost no one asked questions in a tough attitude anymore. They softened their tempers and walked down the stairs one by one.

The Lord of Cloud City personally greeted several other city lords. The Lord of Light City's sister, wearing a silver-red off-the-shoulder dress, her gorgeous face accentuated her allure, a beauty both instantly recognizable and striking. Upon receiving the Lord of Cloud City's reminder, the Lord of Light City was grateful for his sister's attire. His sister, in turn, smiled contentedly.

But the Lord of Qingcheng City was not so lucky. He had just taken Xue Jingying to the banquet hall on the second floor when the Immortal Master Fan of Yuncheng came to ask Xue Jingying to leave, "Miss, please move to the banquet hall on the first floor!"

The Lord of Qingcheng City could not help but frown and asked, "Why is this? This is the younger generation of my lifelong friend, and he will be meeting Young Master Zhou later!"

The Lord of Qingcheng is a middle-aged man with a profoundly high opinion of himself. Although Qingcheng and Yuncheng are only one level apart, he genuinely despises cities below him. This is especially true of the three cities in the Lower City. The cities ranked one, two, and three are considered Upper City, while those ranked four, five, and six are Middle City. Seventh, eight, and nine are the unspoken Lower City cities. The Lord of Qingcheng has always considered his own Qingcheng to be equal to the cities ranked fourth and fifth, and he doesn't even take the three Lower City cities seriously. The ninth city is even more outrageous; it's actually controlled by a female Immortal!

But the Lord of Qingcheng City had never imagined that Young Master Zhou would personally descend upon the battlefield of Yuncheng, becoming famous in battle and even attending the celebration banquet held by Yuncheng. Had he known this, the Lord of Qingcheng City would have undoubtedly served Yuncheng well, helping out during the mutant beast attack and showing off in front of Young Master Zhou. The rewards he would receive in the future would be immeasurable!

Fortunately, he could still make it to the banquet in Cloud City. Though a bit shameless, hadn't the Lord of Guangcheng also rushed to attend? The two cities, under the pretext of offering condolences to Cloud City after the war, were unable to rebuke the other. Today, except for Star City and Phoenix City, all the other cities were present. The Lord of Qingcheng couldn't help but feel a little proud. He had also brought along Xue Jingying, a renowned female immortal from an aristocratic family. If a woman from Qingcheng could capture Young Master Zhou's heart, wouldn't Qingcheng still benefit from it in the future?

But the fact that this Returning Immortal was actually going to take Xue Jingying downstairs offended the City Lord of Qingcheng. This even disrupted his own plans, and he couldn't help but cast his gaze towards the City Lord of Yuncheng.

The Lord of Yuncheng was dealing with other things and did not look at the Lord of Qingcheng for a while.

Yuncheng Fan Zhenren said calmly, "City Lord Qing, this is City Lord Yun's order. Please understand, this young lady's attire is indeed taboo. You can look around the banquet hall. Everyone wearing a white dress has been expelled to the first-floor banquet hall. City Lord Qing is a wise man. If this young lady insists on not leaving, she will probably be disliked by him and everyone will pay attention to her!"

This word "attention" has a derogatory meaning.

The Lord of Qingcheng City turned his head and saw that all the people in white suits in the hall were walking towards the first floor, among whom were a few men in white suits.

The Lord of Qingcheng City reacted immediately, but his expression gradually became more and more ugly. It seemed that it was really unfortunate. It must have been an order from the Zhou family. Otherwise, with so many people, they would definitely not surrender so easily.

Xue Jingying happened to be wearing a snow-white off-shoulder dress, but her dress was adorned with countless diamonds, which reflected colorful light under the light, making it even more sparkling and beautiful.

Xue Jingying also understood, and she almost pleaded, "My dress isn't pure white. Please be flexible and at least allow Qingcheng Lord and I to greet Young Master Zhou before going downstairs."

Yuncheng Fan Zhenren's expression remained unchanged. His smile was as if measured with a ruler. "We have received orders that no one in a white dress is allowed to approach the Zhou family's young master! Miss, you'd better hurry up! Even if you go forward, you will only embarrass the Qingcheng City Lord!"

The Lord of Qingcheng City reacted immediately and said, "Jingying, you go downstairs first. I'll go meet Young Master Zhou first. We'll be here for a few days, there will be more opportunities!"

The Lord of Qingcheng couldn't help but feel unlucky. The Lord of Guangcheng's sister, wearing a silver-red dress, didn't have to be driven downstairs. But no matter how beautiful Xue Jingying looked in it, the dress was still taboo. What a bad start! What a waste of that pretty face.

Xue Jingying was furious, and finally, reluctantly, she walked down the stairs, looking back every few steps. She was very unwilling to accept this. This time, just because of the dress, just because of the color, she missed the chance to be with that man. How could she accept this? It seemed that she had to think of another way.

Zhou Diheng was sitting in the upper seat. He glanced around and naturally noticed the changes in the banquet hall. His brows were more relaxed and his eyes felt much more comfortable.

Zhou Yuqian finally felt relieved and took the opportunity to talk to Zhou Diheng, "Young Master, are your uncle and aunt doing well? I heard that your aunt is very worried about your personal affairs!"

Emperor Zhou Heng said calmly, "Which aspect do you mean?"

Zhou Yuqian said, "Men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. Of course, it's your lifelong event! Actually, I personally think that it's okay not to get married. For those of us who have returned to the real world, as long as we have some power, no matter if we are men or women, who wants to be bound by constraints? Look, just like the Lord of Yuecheng. As the only female Lord of the nine major cities, she still has two attractive men by her side! Not to mention us men? No matter who we are, no matter if we are men or women, once we have some power, it's unlikely that we will just stick to one person! Everyone wants to collect as many colors as possible, otherwise it will be too monotonous and disadvantageous!"
