Hong Tianxu resolved to improve his skills while offering to cut fruit for An Jiuyue as guests approached. The Lord of Fan City arrived with his Personal Guard Squad, surprising Bai Yan after Fan City's recent demonic beast crisis had calmed. Bai Yan awkwardly explained his investigative presence with his cousin, and Hong Tianxu invited the lord to share freshly cut fruit and dinner.

Truly, in this Cloud-Touching Forest right now, even if food is available, no one would risk eating it. Who can tell if it's poisoned or contaminated somehow?

Without Big Brother Qian and the lady's help, they would all be going hungry as well.

"Yes, Lord of Fan City, please rest first. I'll head off to prepare the meal," Bai Yan responded swiftly.

He refused to leave Big Brother Qian cooking by himself. It was wiser for him to pitch in, despite his dishes probably not being the most delicious. Still, in the Cloud-Touching Forest, any food at all was a true fortune.

Hearing those words, the Lord of Fan City cast a look toward his Personal Guard Squad.

Several caught on right away, saying to Bai Yan with bright cheer, "How could we let Young City Lord Bai labor alone? We'll lend a hand too."

Immediately, a handful of them joined in, but with so many extra hands all at once, firewood ran short. Others were dispatched to collect more, speeding up the vegetable cleaning considerably.

"Young sir, take a break please; let me handle that," one approached, attempting to snatch Qian Jiyun’s chore.

"No need."

Qian Jiyun shot him a cool, detached glance.

"Head to Bai Yan’s group instead; no assistance required here."

"Uh."

Stunned by the reply, the man thought to himself in shock, "Wow." Their own City Lord addressed Bai Yan with such respect as "Young City Lord Bai," but this fellow called him plainly by name. Just who was he? Did he hold an even loftier position in White Lion City than the Young City Lord himself?

Noticing the scene, Bai Yan hurried over to intervene.

"Everyone, come join me. Big Brother Qian doesn't require any aid over here."

Qian Jiyun's cooking was meant solely for himself and An Jiuyue. How could others be allowed to interfere? Besides, the flavors from each setup would surely vary greatly.

Besides, he wouldn't dream of having the inter-plane traveler Qian Jiyun prepare food for their group.

The would-be helper gave an embarrassed grin and shifted to Bai Yan’s area to get to work. He observed too that Qian Jiyun’s portions were noticeably modest, sufficient merely for two or three, in stark contrast to the larger batches at Young City Lord Bai’s station.

Thus, one group cooked separately, while Young City Lord Bai’s crew managed their own feast.

"Young City Lord Bai, take a seat. We'll manage everything," the Family Head assumed Bai Yan’s duties, insisting he relax. It was absurd for them to lounge while a Young City Lord slaved over their meal.

Though not from Fan City, this Young City Lord commanded the same reverence.

Bai Yan accepted their offer without hesitation, thrilled to skip the cooking. He settled next to the Lord of Fan City, intending to nibble on fruits to ease his rumbling hunger.

"Young City Lord Bai, are those two... visitors from White Lion City?"

The Lord of Fan City eyed the leisurely An Jiuyue, then the diligent Qian Jiyun, before quietly questioning Bai Yan at his side.

"Big Brother Qian and the lady are my cousin's friends. They accompanied us into the Cloud-Touching Forest for support, as this beast tide feels exceptionally strange. We needed their assistance badly."

Bai Yan offered the explanation.

With Qian Jiyun not specifying if their backgrounds could be revealed, Bai Yan kept it vague, simply noting their connection to Hong Tianxu.

It wasn't a lie at all. Though drawn by the Evil Dragon, the beastmen suffered most from this beast tide. Claiming Qian Jiyun and his wife arrived to aid rang perfectly true.
