After entering the city, Yuan said to Luo Ling, "The guards mentioned that the Lord of this city is currently in a troubled situation. What's troubling him, and how can we help him?"

"Well, it's like this, Daoist Yuan. A few days ago, some ignorant adventurer went into the mountains to hunt, and he accidentally killed the Mountain Lord's child. This greatly angered the Mountain Lord, who immediately blamed our city and swore to send an army of monsters to trample us very soon."

"Mountain Lord? Is that a person or…?" Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"The Mountain Lord is a fearsome beast at the fifth level of the Spirit Warrior realm, and it is a guardian of sorts for the Pang Mountain that's right beside our Pang City. If it attacks our city, only my father who's also at the fifth level of the Spirit Warrior realm can fight it, but then he won't be able to protect the city against the other monsters, and we are currently lacking in manpower with around 50 guards with most of them being at the Spirit Apprentice level." Luo Ling explained the situation to him.

"This is why we are looking for any help we can get. If Daoist Yuan is willing to lend us your power, it would definitely help us a lot, and we won't spare any effort into repaying you afterward." Luo Ling said to him with her head lowered.

"Since this city needs help and the strongest threat is only at the fifth level of the Spirit Warrior realm, there's no reason why I would refuse to give you my assistance." Yuan nodded.

Now that he is at the fourth level of the Spirit Warrior realm, he shouldn't have any problems fighting even seventh level Spirit Warriors, much less a Spirit Warrior at the fifth level.

"Thank you very much, Daoist Yuan! My father will definitely be ecstatic to hear this later!" Luo Ling bowed to him again before they continued walking.

Sometime later, they arrived at a massive building that was situated in the middle of the city.

"Welcome to my family's humble home." Luo Ling said to him when they were at the front gates.

"..."

Yuan looked at the decorated building with wide eyes. How can such a place be described as 'humble'?

Daoist Yuan, and I have heard everything about your situation from Luo Ling,"

As shameful as it may sound, being only a fifth level Spirit Warrior, I do not have what it takes to defend the city in this dire situation. We usually don't have to worry about the beasts within the Pang Mountain because of a peace treaty between the city and the Mountain Lord, but because of what happened with the Mountain Lord's child, the treaty was broken.
