“Lady Chang Er!”
After he took his seat, Lu Dongbin smiled at Chang Er and asked, “Why didn’t you stay in the palace and enjoy your
wealth, but you came to the Holy Saint Sect instead?”
Lu Dongbin had cultivated in seclusion all year round, and he rarely asked about worldly affairs. Therefore, he still
had no idea that Emperor Hou Yi had died and Yang Jian had become the new Emperor. The situation in North
Moana Palace had changed.
Ugh!
Chang Er sighed and explained her situation slowly. “His Majesty is dead, and Yang Jian has seized the throne. He
has ordered for my arrest all over the place…” Chang Er explained the details in a few minutes.
Of course, Chang Er did not tell him that Yang Jian was fond of her and wanted to have her. After all, she thought
that was too shameful.
Whoa!
In an instant, the entire hall was in an uproar. Everyone stared blankly at Darryl; they were speechless.

“That’s unbelievable! Yang Jian is just too hateful. He even took the opportunity to usurp the throne…”
“I did not expect so many things to happen in only one month.”
Everyone talked and passed comments. Lu Dongbin could not conceal his shock; he stared speechlessly at Darryl.
One should not trifle with that man who had accidentally killed Emperor Hou Yi.
However, Lu Dongbin was an expert in Daoism, and he was a broad-minded man. He believed that everything that
happened was destined and meant to be. Therefore, he was relieved.
Lu Dongbin breathed a long sigh before he looked at Chang Er to try to comfort her. “The dead can’t return to life. I
hope you’ll heal from this grief soon.”
Then, Lu Dongbin asked earnestly, “What’s your plan now?”
“No one knows about the truth yet. Yang Jian was convinced that Zhu Bajie and I had an affair and that we
conspired to kill my husband.” Chang Er bit her lips; her delicate face looked furious. “He sent all the royal guards to
come after me. Yang Jian has wild ambitions; North Moana would be in trouble if he were to secure his position as
the new Emperor. I must prove my innocence and regain the throne.”
Chang Er clenched her fist tightly as she looked at Lu Dongbin expectantly. “Saint Master, you must help me!”
Lu Dongbin pondered that before he nodded. “Of course, I’ll help you since you’ve asked for my aid!”
Chang Er leapt in joy when Lu Dongbin agreed to help her. He was the Grandmaster of Daoism; there was no need
to be afraid of Yang Jian if he was willing to help her.
“Lady Chang Er!”
Lu Dongbin continued to say, “This is not a trivial matter, so we need time to discuss and plan for it. During this
period, you can stay at the Holy Saint Sect temporarily.”
Then, Lu Dongbin instructed Alan and others. “Sent some disciples to the Royal City to run an investigation
discreetly. Report back to me once you see any movement from Grandmaster Erlang.”
“Yes, Saint Master!” Alan and the others responded in unison, and then they quickly walked out of the hall to get
ready.
Even though Lu Dongbin was not afraid of Yang Jian, he had to be cautious as the other man was in control of the
Royal City.
“Thank you, Saint Master.” Chang Er smiled faintly as she thanked Lu Dongbin gently.

Then, Lu Dongbin looked around before his eyes finally landed on Darryl. “No matter what you are, Darryl, you have
joined the Holy Saint Sect. You are now my disciple. Since you and the Empress were destined to meet, you’ll be
responsible for her food and daily needs from now onward.”
There was an implied emotion behind Lu Dongbin’s seemingly indifferent expression.
There were thousands of Holy Saint Sect disciples, but it was only appropriate for Darryl to take care of Chang Er.
After all, he was the one who had caused Hou Yi’s death; it was an atonement for him to take care of Chang Er.
“Okay!” Darryl was a wise and clever man; he understood Lu Dongbin’s suggestion and quickly nodded in response.
He had killed Hou Yi, albeit unintentionally, and he felt guilty toward Chang Er. He thought it was nothing even if he
had to take care of her food and daily needs in the Holy Saint Sect.
Yvette, who stood beside him, bit her lips; she had to agree with the arrangement.
Yvette loved Darryl deeply. She was unwilling when Darryl promised to take care of Chang Er. However, she was a
smart woman. She knew that it was an act of atonement, so she was supportive.
“No!”
Suddenly, a soft cry came from outside the hall before a graceful woman walked in slowly.
The long yellow dress accentuated her charming curves. She looked attractive, and she had a beautiful face, but
she seemed cold and surly.
