“President Nami, it’s not only Lord Bartos’s wish to hand over the Crimson Moon to you. All the elders agree on it too,” said the cloaked figure.

Other than Lord Bartos, only Nami was qualified to lead the Crimson Moon.

“Teacher, you will be fine! The Crimson Moon should be led by you. No one can replace you,” said Nami.

“I know,” said Bartos. “But people die. That’s the fact of life.” Bartos smiled at her kindly.

Even if he obtained God’s Heart, he would die someday. The Crimson Moon needed an heir. It was time for the gods to fear the Crimson Moon. They had prepared for ten years.

“When I eventually die, you must take over,” said Bartos to Nami.

Nami looked at Bartos and couldn’t say a word.

On the bustling streets of Canglan City, a carriage with the emblem of a noble family headed to Lavender Manor.

When the soldiers patrolling the streets saw the emblem on the carriage, they stopped what they were doing and saluted.

Everyone made way for the carriage. Everyone knew who that carriage belonged to.

In the sky, there were even several squadrons of Pegasus Knights patrolling above the carriage. They kept a close eye on everything that happened below.

If anything was amiss, they would swoop down to attack or defend as needed.

The carriage belonged to Archduke Qing You’s only daughter, Bayion.

“Molly, why do you think Tristana gave the Lavender Manor to the lord?” Bayion asked her maid inside the carriage.

“Your Highness, Lady Tristana is far from naive. She must’ve had a very good reason for doing so. There must be something special to that Lord,” said Molly.

“Tristana is the eldest daughter of the Grand Duke Frostwolf. I don’t think the Lord is greater in status than a noble! I’ve never heard of Lady Tristana doing such a thing before.”

Bayion and Tristana were good friends. When Tristana’s father had given her the manor, Bayion had helped her set it up.

If the Lord was trying to dupe Tristana, she needed to protect Tristana!

The carriage finally arrived in front of the Lavender Manor. Bayion got out of the carriage and went straight to the main hall in a hurry.

Tristana was there in the main hall.

“Why didn’t you come and meet me after you reached?” asked Bayion impatiently.

Tristana turned to look at her. Bayion glared daggers at her.

“I was tired from the journey. I rested a bit. Today, I went shopping with Lord Su Wan in the black market.” Tristana smiled and reached out to hold Bayion’s hand.

“Sister Nami said that you gave away the Lavender Manor to Lord Su Wan?”

“Yes. Is there a problem?”

Su Wan had given her the Victory Gem. How could a mere manor compare to that? Besides, Lord Xu Yuan had said that he trusted her!

“I worked hard on this manor with you! You just gave it away! I have never seen you do something like this before,” said Bayion resentfully. “Is she doing something to you? Blackmailing you or something?”

Tristana didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Bayion, it was my choice. I chose to give the manor to her willingly. Besides, you already know that enchantments don’t work on the Frostwolf bloodline.”

“But why? She is just an ordinary Lord like any other. Zorro does boast about how extraordinary Su Wan’s territory is, but Zorro boasts about everything! That can’t have made such an impression on you!”

Tristana had only visited the territory once. What did she find there that made her this way?

Bayion was puzzled. She had seen so many Lords in Canglan City trying to earn Tristana’s favor. Tristana had paid them no mind.

“Bayion, Lord Su Wan isn’t any ordinary Lord. The Dark Demon Dragon beside her is also extremely powerful.”

Bayion looked at Tristana. “What’s so special about her anyway?”

If the manor was given to the strongest Lord, then it would make sense. Tristana had just bought the Scarlet Flame Demon Spider Silk from Su Wan, but that wasn’t reason enough to give the Lord a manor!

Tristana frowned. Bayion belittling Su Wan made her feel uneasy.

“Bayion, it was my choice to give away the manor. Besides, Su Wan is ranked first among the Lords. Why is that so hard for you to accept?”

“She is ranked first?!” Bayion was shocked.

Tristana was just about to respond when Claude entered the hall.

“Lady Tristana, I have already informed your family about the victory Gem you obtained. The Grand Duke Frostwolf had nothing but praise for you,” said Claude. He couldn’t see Bayion because she was standing a little away from his line of sight..
