My Xianxia Harem Life

Chapter 71 Sparkle

"From now on, you don’t have to worry about cooking meals for my young master. Just focus on cleaning the Thousand Stars Summit and diligently cultivating. Leave the cooking to me," Eve instructed firmly.

She was always

Truth be told, Luna wouldn’t have been able to cultivate at all if not for the sound-dampening formation she had set up in her room.

Steeling herself, she knocked on the door before calling out.

"Young Master Riley? Senior Sister Leia has come to see you. Should I let her in?"

Riley’s response came almost immediately, as if he had been expecting this.

"Yes. Thank you for your effort, Luna."

Without wasting time, Luna rushed back and escorted Leia inside.

The beautiful disciple waited in the grand living area of the Thousand Stars Summit, where various forms of entertainment were scattered throughout the luxurious space.

She didn’t have to wait long.

Riley arrived shortly after, his presence as composed and handsome as ever.

"Good morning, core disciple Leia. What can I do for you?" he asked, his tone polite and formal.

Though he undeniably appreciated Leia’s beauty, he had maintained his professionalism throughout their journey. Unlike with his other women, he had never once spoken lewdly to her.

The only time he had openly revealed his admiration was when they first met—his awe at her beauty had been genuine, unfiltered. But after that moment, he had quickly regained his composure.

Leia, however, didn’t waste time on pleasantries.

"This is something important, Elder Riley. Can we speak somewhere private?" she requested, her voice steady but firm.

Whatever she had to say, it clearly wasn’t meant for anyone else’s ears.

"Of course. Please follow me," Riley said, leading Leia through the expansive halls of the Thousand Stars Summit.

Despite the luxurious design of the estate, many rooms remained unoccupied, leaving him with plenty of options for a private conversation.

He pushed open the door to one of them and was pleased to find it clean and well-kept.

The scent of polished wood lingered in the air, and the space felt undisturbed, as if it had been waiting for this very moment.

Moving toward the window, Riley unlatched it, allowing a stream of golden morning sunlight to flood the room.

The warm glow illuminated the wooden furniture, casting soft shadows that gave the space a tranquil yet dignified ambiance.

The gentle breeze carried the fresh scent of the surrounding mountain air, adding to the serene atmosphere.

Satisfied, Riley turned to Leia and gestured for her to take a seat. However, she remained standing, her expression unreadable.

He didn’t press her. Instead, he leaned against the windowsill, folding his arms as he patiently waited for her to speak.

Leia inhaled deeply, her fingers tightening slightly around the hem of her robes, as if steadying herself. Whatever she was about to say weighed heavily on her mind.

After a long pause, she finally asked, "Elder Riley, have you heard of the Miller Clan?"

Her voice was calm, but there was an unmistakable tension beneath it.

"The Miller Clan?" Riley repeated, his brows slightly raised. "You mean the most influential clan in Blazing Sun City?"

Blazing Sun City was one of the largest and wealthiest cities near the Stone Mountain Sect. As a thriving hub of commerce and cultivation, it was home to many powerful families and organizations.

Given its strategic importance, the city naturally fell under the protection of the Stone Mountain Sect, ensuring its continued prosperity and stability.

Riley’s gaze remained steady as he studied Leia, sensing that whatever she had to say about the Miller Clan was of great significance.
