Even though she had sensed yesterday that Lu Chen was a Grandmaster, she still held on to her view. In her eyes, the Human Emperor was a sacred leader, the lord of the world. A leader must behave like a leader and must pay attention to their conduct.

She did not believe that Lu Chen must have only one wife, but she did think that there were simply too many women around Lu Chen.

Xuanyuan Yunqi wasn\'t a fool. When she heard that her father wanted her to guide the North Prince, she vaguely sensed that her father was trying to \'sell\' her.

She also had an elder brother, who logically should be the guide if one were needed. Yet, it was she, a daughter, who was tasked with guiding the North Prince. Her father\'s intentions did not need to be guessed.

Xuanyuan Yunqi sighed softly, then said to the maid who came to call her, "Lead the way."

Soon after, the maid brought Xuanyuan Yunqi to Lu Chen. Upon seeing Lu Chen, Xuanyuan Yunqi promptly paid her respects, saying, "Your subordinate greets Your Majesty!"

Upon seeing Xuanyuan Yunqi dressed in black-and-gold armor, Xuanyuan Chaoge was startled, and then he quickly said, "Yunqi, delegate your military duties to your elder brother for now. You don\'t need to be on duty today; go change your clothes first."

Xuanyuan Yunqi glanced at Lu Chen and said with neither servility nor arrogance, "Father, I am responsible for His Majesty\'s safety, given that I am guiding him. I must protect His Majesty; how could I possibly remove my armor?"

This...

Xuanyuan Chaoge was somewhat frustrated; he didn\'t believe his daughter couldn\'t sense that Lu Chen had already become a Grandmaster. Their monarch was already a Grandmaster—there was no need for a martial artist of lesser rank to protect him.

Moreover, the citizens of Great Yu City were His Majesty\'s subjects; who would harbor ill will against him? Besides, this place was so remote that ordinary enemies couldn\'t find it. Xuanyuan Yunqi\'s excuse was clearly just that—an excuse.

Xuanyuan Chaoge was somewhat worried. Through Xuanyuan Yunqi\'s words, he could tell that his daughter seemed not to be very interested in their monarch.

This wouldn\'t do at all—he was counting on Xuanyuan Yunqi being able to marry Lu Chen and bear him children.

Xuanyuan Chaoge was about to continue speaking when Lu Chen, smiling, said, "Lord Xuanyuan, Yunqi makes a good point. Let her wear the armor. Moreover, I find that this armor suits Yunqi extremely well. It makes her look valiant and impressive. Perhaps changing into another attire wouldn\'t give her the same presence."

Upon hearing Lu Chen\'s words, Xuanyuan Yunqi was startled internally, but she quickly recovered and respectfully responded, "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."

Lu Chen smiled lightly, "Alright, now that Yunqi is here as well, let us set off."

Xuanyuan Yunqi replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Following that, Xuanyuan Yunqi led Lu Chen and the others towards the pastures of Great Yu City.

Along the way, Xuanyuan Yunqi and Lu Chen did not interact much. Xuanyuan Yunqi\'s face was expressionless, and she appeared meticulous, seemingly alert to every sign of movement around her, as if she really was protecting Lu Chen.

Lu Chen glanced at her a few times and then looked at her Favorability towards him—Favorability 63, an increase of 3 points since yesterday.

At that moment, while riding his horse, Lu Chen asked, "General Xuanyuan, did your father teach you all your martial skills?"

Xuanyuan Yunqi was briefly taken aback when she heard Lu Chen call her General Xuanyuan. Her favorability towards him rose again.

After recovering, she immediately answered, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Lu Chen, with a smile, asked, "May I ask General Xuanyuan a rather personal question, if that is alright?"

Xuanyuan Yunqi responded, "Please do, Your Majesty."

Lu Chen then asked, "Does General Xuanyuan wish to stay in Great Yu City for a lifetime, protect Great Yu City, and then find a good family to marry when the time comes, or does she want to take her Red Tassel Spear, charge through the battlefield, accomplish great feats, and become a respected female general admired by thousands?"

Hearing Lu Chen\'s question, Xuanyuan Yunqi\'s mind went blank. She had not anticipated such a question from Lu Chen.

At this moment, she involuntarily pictured a battlefield crowded with warriors, filled with the unceasing din of battle, where she rode a war horse, charging into the fray.

Indeed, her dream was to become a Great General revered by thousands. However, she also knew this was nearly impossible. She had inquired about the outside world: not just in Great Sum, but in all the great dynasties, the society valued men over women, and the military was almost devoid of women.

Forget the external situation, even Great Yu City was much the same. If her father were not the City Lord of Great Yu, she might not even be able to join the city\'s army, let alone command one of its military units.

Seeing that Xuanyuan Yunqi had not answered for a while, Lu Chen continued, "General Xuanyuan, have you thought it through?"

Hearing Lu Chen\'s words, Xuanyuan Yunqi came back to her senses, she immediately said, "To your question, Your Majesty, your subordinate wishes to become a Great General!"

Hearing Xuanyuan Yunqi\'s answer, the corners of Lu Chen\'s mouth lifted slightly. He glanced again at Xuanyuan Yunqi\'s Favorability—her Favorability had jumped to seventy-five.
