His daughter still in his arms, Ji Ning hurriedly rose to his feet. "Everyone, please rise!"
Only then did the seven Empyrean Gods and the giant yellow bear rise to their feet, their eyes still filled with excitement.
"In the future, don't kneel before me." Ning shook his head, his daughter still in his arms. "I am nothing more than the heir to my master, Daoist Threelives, which is why I was fortunate enough to become the Manorlord of the Starseizing Manor. In terms of cultivation, all of you have been training for far, far longer than I have. In terms of power, I am just like the rest of you, a mere Empyrean God."
"The Manorlord is the Manorlord." The dazzlingly beautiful white-browed woman, Snow Scorpion, revealed a smile. "The Manorlord commands the Starseizing Manor. We are your subordinates. We have to follow the rules."
