"Senior, is this a lord's dominion?" Xiao Mu deliberately asked Zhou Xuanmen.

You're just trying to rile me up, aren't you?

Zhou Xuanmen eyed Xiao Mu up and down, finding the young man disagreeable no matter how he looked at him.

In his heart, there lingered a hint of barely-there jealousy. The youngster was merely at the Divine Spirit Realm, yet he possessed a True God dominion even more powerful than his own. Where on earth did this kid acquire a lord's dominion from?

"Xiao Xiao, very good. I didn't expect that you, in the mid-stage of the Divine Spirit Realm, would already possess a True God dominion. A young talent indeed; our Human World Alliance will be relying on you in the future."

"Within the Alliance, there are many strong at the True God Realm, yet few possess a True God dominion. If all those at the True God Realm each had a True God dominion, why would we in the Human World fear the Heavenly Court?"

"The capable bear heavier burdens. The task of finding dominions for True God Realm powerhouses of the Alliance will be handed over to you from now on." As he spoke, Zhou Xuanmen's expression changed, suddenly as if he had thought of something, he raised his hand with earnest and patted Xiao Mu's shoulder.

"..."

Xiao Mu was momentarily stunned, feeling as though he had just lifted a rock only to drop it on his own foot—an error in judgment indeed.

However, how could he have anticipated that Zhou Xuanmen would so swiftly seize the opportunity to offload such a significant responsibility of finding dominions for the Alliance powerhouses onto him?

Xiao Mu hurriedly refused, "Senior, dominions aren't so easy to find, and I might not be able to find any."

"You're truly modest, haha, I know you can do it. Besides you, who else in the Alliance could acquire two True God dominions? The capable must shoulder more burdens. Xiao Xiao, you can't overlook the overall situation."

Zhou Xuanmen patted Xiao Mu's shoulder again, bearing the attitude that the capable cannot shirk responsibility, leaving no room for Xiao Mu to reconsider.

Xiao Mu forced a bitter smile, feeling like he had truly blundered. If he had known, why would he boast about his True God dominion to Zhou Xuanmen?

Verbally agreeing with reluctance, he said, "Senior, if I do acquire a True God dominion, I'll definitely donate it to the Alliance."

This wasn't a reckless promise. In fact, donating a dominion to the Alliance wouldn't be a loss for him, as he had already cultivated "The King's Enthronement Technique" and could fully utilize the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor to modify dominions, borrowing the power of True God dominion holders to enhance himself.

And "The King's Enthronement Technique" could elevate him much more with one True God powerhouse than with the power of dozens, hundreds, or even more Divine Spirits.

"I knew I hadn't misjudged you. The Alliance won't forget your contributions."

Zhou Xuanmen laughed heartily and suddenly soared into the sky, stepping on a dark gray cloud as he flew upwards.

Amid his words, a sphere-shaped object formed from Curse Power resembling a Dao Talisman fell down, "Through this talisman, you can find me. If a major event occurs requiring assistance, notify me."

"Thank you, senior!"

Xiao Mu said thanks helplessly and reached out to accept the Dao Talisman.

On the whole, he wasn't at a loss, trading one promise for another, and for the moment, Zhou Xuanmen's promise was undoubtedly far more valuable than his.

Pocketing the Dao Talisman, he returned to the Zhao Family.

"Brother Mu, you're back!"

Tian Zhen, the wife of Zhao Jingyan, was at home and greeted Xiao Mu.

"Hello Sister-in-law!" Xiao Mu replied with a polite smile.

"Brother Mu, tomorrow is godfather Tian Ling's birthday. Are you still coming with us?" Tian Zhen asked politely, worried that Xiao Mu had changed his plans.

"Yes, just call me when we leave tomorrow, Sister-in-law," Xiao Mu responded simply.

Just then, the sound of an Escape Art resounded from the doorstep, and Li Gujian's figure appeared from the Yellow Light with a trace of panic and worry on his face. "Brother Mu, you're back!"

But upon seeing Xiao Mu, Li Gujian noticeably relaxed a great deal.

"Brother Li is back!" Xiao Mu nodded in greeting to Li Gujian.

"Brother Mu, I have a matter I'd like to consult you about, if it's convenient?"

Li Gujian suddenly used a transmission of voice, suggesting that what he had to discuss was of great importance, not suitable for an ordinary person like Tian Zhen to hear.

"There's nothing inconvenient. What would Brother Li like to ask me?"

Xiao Mu did not refuse, as he was confident he could solve any problem that Li Gujian, at his level, might encounter.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

At that moment, the sound of another Escape Art echoed, and Zhu Ping appeared in the midst of a Cyan Escape Light.

Seeing Xiao Mu, Zhao Jingyan, Tian Zhen, Li Gujian, Zhu Ping immediately exhaled in relief, "Good, you're all safe and sound!"

"You worried for nothing, Brother Zhu. We're all fine, and that person...didn't pass by my house," Zhao Jingyan quickly responded, guessing what Zhu Ping was referring to.

"That's good, as long as everyone is okay. I was concerned something might have happened to you all, which is why I came to check in advance. Since everyone is fine, I am relieved."

"I have an urgent matter to attend to. Everyone, I'll take my leave first, see you later!"

As he said goodbye, Zhu Ping initiated his Escape Light, intending to leave.

But just as his Escape Light began, he stopped abruptly; Zhu Ping reappeared and looked questioningly at Li Gujian, "Xiao Li, aren't you leaving with me?"

"Brother Zhu, if you have business to attend to, go ahead. I need to consult with Brother Mu on that matter."

Li Gujian stood still.

"That matter?"

Zhu Ping echoed, puzzled, turning to glance at Xiao Mu. He couldn't make sense of why Li Gujian would ask Xiao Mu about it.

"That matter!" Li Gujian confirmed, his tone resolutely firm.

"Does Brother Mu know what it's about?" Zhu Ping looked from Xiao Mu to Li Gujian, filled with incomprehension.
