To tell the truth, Huang Xiaolong indeed did not need the protection of the Elder Lan Yue.
Though Elder Lan Yue was an ancient colossus, at the early stage of the Heavenly Dao Law Realm, what about Huang Xiaolong? Not to mention his identity as the Yin Emperor and a deity, even after integrating that wisp of divine sense from the Qingcheng Sect's forebear, the solitary Dugu Hong, he had almost reached the late stage of the Heavenly Dao Law Realm in both realm and combat power!
However, Huang Xiaolong did not want to cause Duanmu Wei to worry, nor did he want to disappoint Elder Lan Yue's enthusiasm, so he had no choice but to agree.
Seeing Huang Xiaolong nod his head, Duanmu Wei also breathed a sigh of relief.
