After they left, Yi Tianyun smiled. "Elder Zhu, it seems your old employers can't bear to part with you. They want you to go back and be the Vice Pavilion Master—a position with much more power than before!"
"You're joking again, Elder Yi..." Zhu Yuwei said with a faint smile. "Aren't they only interested in me because of your strength? I've long since given up on Celestial Rain Tower. They have no thought other than to use me. The moment I lose my value, I'll be cast aside like a puppet. Since I've become an elder of Merak Palace, I will serve Merak Palace to my last breath!"
Everyone was moved by Zhu Yuwei's declaration. Yi Tianyun had only been teasing her slightly, but he hadn't expected such a solemn response.
"Well..." Yi Tianyun felt a bit awkward. He hadn't thought too much of it when he invited her to join. But Zhu Yuwei was truly talented, especially in administration, and Merak Palace desperately needed someone with her skills.
