Wang Ping'an let out a slight sigh, inwardly disappointed, thinking: 'What a shame such strong protection will hardly attract female demon calamity!'

Brother Wang, I'll head back first; if you have anything, just come find me!
Xuanqing Daozhang joined a meal again, saying no words of thanks; they were already like family, no need for formalities. When he rose to leave, he saw Wang Lin stand up, apparently ready to see him off, and he spoke first:
"Brother Wang, keep eating; I'm not some outsider, why would you need to see me off?"
Wang Lin's expression was complicated as he said, "Daozhang, I still need to trouble you with a matter. Please go speak to that Lord Luo and ask him to stop sending things to our family. Once, twice—each time an exceptionally precious treasure—we can't afford them!"
He knew this request would be hard for Xuanqing Daozhang, since Luo Quan had made it clear he was looking to poach disciples; even if Xuanqing Daozhang said he didn't mind, he was actually preparing to send their Ping'an to become that man's disciple.
But he also knew that Xuanqing Daozhang was thinking of Ping'an's welfare; to say that Xuanqing Daozhang didn't feel uneasy would be almost impossible.
At this moment.
Xuanqing Daozhang probably wasn't very willing to meet Luo Quan!
"Brother Wang, just be at ease; this is what he should do. No matter how many treasures he sends, you can take them all without any mental burden!"
Xuanqing Daozhang snorted coldly and said, "The more gifts he sends, the more it shows his regard for your Ping'an. When Ping'an later becomes his disciple, only then will Ping'an have good days."
