"What did you say? Lu Chuan has already gone to the volcano alone?"
"Yes, Mr. Lu Chuan said so. He also said he'd wait for you there."
Feeling the overwhelming aura emanating from Xiu Niang, the squad captain didn't dare lift his head, trembling as he stood behind the screen.
"Alright, I understand. I'll leave promptly. Besides that, did Lu Chuan say anything else?"
"This... Mr. Lu Chuan only said those words. Your subordinate takes their leave."
As he exited the room, the squad captain finally exhaled in relief.
He couldn't shake the feeling that standing before this woman was even more suffocating than being in front of his lady. Her aura easily overshadowed even that of Mr. Lu Chuan, which suggested she was likely a Nascent Soul Realm expert.
"Mr. Lu Chuan truly is something..."
Everyone could tell that their young lady fancied Mr. Lu Chuan. Ever since his arrival, her smiles in the past few days outnumbered those she'd shown all year. Clearly, she had feelings for him.
