  The Yin Demon finally died. 

  It left peacefully and comfortably. It didn’t cry out and didn’t struggle. 

  The Yin Demon was just a passerby in Lin Fan’s life. He had already done what he could do to it, it added some spice to his life, so it was quite worth it. 

  To Lin Fan, his current life was not what he wanted at all. 

  He faced large amounts of pressure due to his background. 

  He simply wanted to live the life of a rich family’s young master, however, he faced pressure everywhere he went. It felt really bad. 

  Yuan Manor. 

  Wang Yunfei sat on the bed, his expression was really unnatural. His fingers touching his private parts, “What’s going on… What’s going on?!” 

  He was really terrified. 

  He didn’t feel anything wrong when he returned here. 

  However, after a little while he felt a little uncomfortable. 

  His special part was a little lazy like it was just drooping. Even after trying for a while, he was still unable to move it. The situation was really terrifying. 

  Wang Yunfei consoled himself. 

  Maybe it was due to him being frightened a while earlier that caused such a temporary problem. 

  “Xiu!” 

  There was movement outside. 

  “Young Master, Old Master called you to go back.” 

  Wang Yunfei was shocked when he heard this, he was asked to return so quickly. 

  He had just arrived in You City, “En, understood.” 

  He came to You City to play around and enjoy his time here. Although the process wasn’t all that good, in this poor You City, the Hongxiu Pavilion was a decent place. 

  He continued to played around with it for a little while more but there was still no reaction at all. He didn’t place it in his heart, he would just pack up and head back. 

  The Wang Family was really complicated and was formed with many powers. He was one of the slightly stronger factions within, but he couldn’t be careless at all. 

  Marrying a big family would be largely beneficial to him. 

  Although he didn’t really like that girl, for his future, he had to make sacrifices. As long as he was going to get everything he wanted, no one would be able to suppress him. 

  Rong City, Li Family. 

  A white eagle flew in the air and then dove down towards an aristocratic family’s courtyard. It screeched and attracted attention. 

  The Li Family Head walked out of the hall and looked at it. He frowned when he saw the eagle, this was the messenger from the You City Lin Family. 

  He raised his hand and the white eagle landed onto his arm, perching onto it. There was a piece of bamboo tied to its claws, there was a letter from the Lin Family. 

  He took out the letter from within the bamboo container. When he read the message written, Old Master Li’s expression suddenly changed. 

  The details within shocked him. 

  “Lin Wanyi wants a marriage?” 

  Of course. 

  His first thought wasn’t to reject this but to consider the relationships within instead. 

  Aristocratic families naturally relied on marriages to strengthen themselves. 

  The marriage of his big daughter, Li Zhixiu, was also decided by him. 

  Although You City was a broken city, the Lin Family had a huge influence there, they were a good match. 

  “We have no choice too.” Old Master Li muttered. 

  Other people didn’t know about her situation but he did. Although she was beautiful… She loved to play with blades and spears, her temper was really explosive too. 

  In the past, there were young masters who came over to seek marriage, but they were all so frightened that they peed their pants. 

  His daughter wanted to fight them and sweep them all with a spear, nearly making them from men to eunuchs. From then on, no one dared to ask for her hand in marriage. 

  Several years had already passed since then. 

  If she didn’t marry, people will probably begin to spread rumors. 

  Back Courtyard. 

  “Little Miss! Little Miss! It’s not good.” A maidservant hurried over. 

  Li Zhixiu was holding a spear and cultivating the family martial arts. She turned around and struck out, a bright glow exploded from the spear. The spear instantly stopped just a finger’s width away from the face of the girl. 

  The maid screamed and fell to the ground. 

  “Cuilan? What happened?” Li Zhixiu retracted her spear and asked. 

  Cuilan heaved a sigh of relief after seeing Li Zhixiu stop practicing. She was nearly frightened to death, “Little Miss, I heard that the You City’s Lin Family came to ask for your hand in marriage.” 

  Li Zhixiu was really beautiful and often cultivated. The clothes on her body covered it well, she gave off a valiant aura. 

  “Marriage? There are still people looking to die by daring ask for marriage?” Li Zhixiu said. 

  Cuilan nodded her head, “En, it’s You City’s Lin Family. I heard that the Lin Family’s Young Master is trash and really weak. He never cultivated in his life, he is just a young master who did nothing. If Old Master agrees to this, isn’t it like pushing you into a sea of flames?” 

  “Father agreed?” Li Zhixiu asked. 

  Cuilan wasn’t certain about it, “I don’t know, however, when I saw Old Master, he didn’t show any signs of rejecting.” 

  Li Zhixiu’s wrist quickly moved and the spear left her hand, with a rattle, it entered the hole into the weapons rack accurately, “I agree.” 

  “Ah?” 

  Cuilan opened her mouth, “Little Miss, why?” 

  “En.” Li Zhixiu had her own thoughts. 

  As an aristocratic family’s daughter, she wouldn’t make the decisions for marriages. With these few years of reputation here, no one dared to ask for her hand in marriage anymore. 

  However, this didn’t mean that she wouldn’t need to marry in the future. 

  Since she was unable to decide who she would marry in the future, 

  Why not choose a weak one? 

  She would then be able to control her future and not be disturbed. 

  He didn’t cultivate and had a weak personality. 

  She could beat him up when she was unhappy. 

  Even if he resisted, he wouldn’t be able to do anything about it. 

  To her, the You City’s Lin Family’s Young Master was probably the best choice. 

  “Daughter…” Old Master Li walked over. 

  Li Zhixiu didn’t say anything else, “Father, I agree to the marriage.” 

  When Old Master Li heard this, he didn’t have much emotional fluctuation, it was like he saw through her thoughts, “Aren’t you going to look at him first?” 

  “There is no need, as long as he isn’t really ugly then I will agree.” Li Zhixiu said. 

  If the Lin Family’s Young Master was really ugly to the point that she would vomit right away upon seeing him, then naturally, she would call it off. 

  “Daughter, did you think about it? If you really agree, then I will send a letter.” Old Master Li said. 

  Li Zhixiu shook her head, “Father, there is no need to send a letter. I will personally bring gifts over. If he is too ugly, then I will bring the gifts back, if not, I will just stay there.” 

  She replied so frankly. 

  Even if Old Master Li was used to his daughter’s personality, he was still shocked beyond words. 

  She was a little too casual about this. 

  She didn’t wait for the Li Famly to come over to officially ask her hand in marriage. But instead, she wanted to head over to the Lin Family with huge gifts. 

  Why did it feel a little wrong? 

  “Little Miss, what about me?” Cuilan said worryingly. She thought that Little Miss wouldn’t bring her there. 

  “Of course you would be following me. I’m not used to having strangers serving me.” Li Zhixiu said. 

  Cuilan smiled. 

  She just wanted to be with the Little Miss. 

  However, Old Master Li looked at this and felt like his daughter was just eager to leave the Li Family. 

  This was not a good sign at all. 

  A daughter that one married off was like water that was scattered. 

  If his daughter caused trouble there to the point that the Lin Family would send her back, that would be a huge loss of face. 

  Old Master Li was really regretting letting this brat cultivate. 

  At the start, he thought that her learning a skill would prevent herself from being bullied in the future. 

  However, he didn’t expect that after so many years, she would actually develop to become such a daughter. 

  It was such a mistake.

  Chapter 79: Chapter 79- I am willing to call you the strongest

  Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales 

  Young Master Wang got news from his family and had to leave You City. Naturally, he was reluctant to. 

  He hadn’t fully enjoyed the 108 styles of the Hongxiu Pavilion yet. 

  Hence, he was filled with many temptations. 

  However, he prepared to leave right away since he was frightened that there were repercussions to what he experienced because he was limp right now. 

  Let’s not talk about it. 

  The more he spoke, the more tears there were. 

  Yuan Tianchu forced the tears out when he sent him away, acting like he was sad that a good friend was leaving. 

  “Brother Wang, in such a short time we have built such a deep bond. Although I am reluctant to part with you, your dreams are in the distance. I look forward to the day that we meet once more.” 

  People who loved to discuss literature could really say nice words. 

  Wang Yunfei teared up, he grabbed Yuan Tianchu’s hand, “Brother Yuan, I’m leaving!” 

  “Please be safe.” Yuan Tianchu said solemnly. 

  The two of them seemed to have already missed one another. 

  Someone who didn’t know the situation would think that the two of them were really close with each other. 

  After Wang Yunfei left, Yuan Tianchu’s expression turned solemn. 

  He naturally got close to Wang Yunfei for a reason. 

  “Young Master, Young Master Wang has already left.”Manager Lu said. 

  “En.” Yuan Tianchu nodded his head, “Manager Lu, I recently told you to pay attention to some things, how is it?” 

  He didn’t really care much about the Lin Family taking over the two villages that the Yuan and Liang Family didn’t really want. 

  However, since he realized that Lin Fan was such a smart person, he told Manager Chen to pay attention to the situations of those villages. 

  Although Manager Chen didn’t know why he had to do it, he just had to follow orders. Even if he took losses, he wouldn’t be taking any large ones. 

  Manager Chen thought about it for a moment before speaking up, “Young Master, during this period of time. I noticed that the villagers are really motivated, completely different from before. If they used 50% of their strength before, now they are using 100%.” 

  As expected. 

  Yuan Tianchu clearly understood once more. Lin Fan was such a smart person, why would he be doing things that he wasn’t confident in. 

  So he was planning something. 

  “Do according to what I will say. Find some refugees and form another village, do exactly what Lin Fan did.” 

  Yuan Tianchu naturally knew how much cheaper Lin Fan reduced the taxes to. 

  However, since he already did that, then he naturally had his own reasons. Even if he was a little unwilling, as long as he followed what Lin Fan did, he wouldn’t really have much of a loss. 

  “Yes, Young Master.” Manager Lu just followed Young Master’s instructions even if he didn’t understand why Young Master wanted to do this. 

  Yuan Tianchu turned his back, a solemn expression appeared on his face. 

  Lin Fan, I’m willing to call you a smart person. Although I don’t know what your reason for doing this is. I will follow what you are doing. Even if I can’t profit from it, at least I won’t fall prey to you. 

  He was thinking this way. 

  He really didn’t understand what Lin Fan was doing, he was just harming everyone. To reduce the taxes to such a level, what could he earn? 

  He was just giving the commoners good grain. 

  However, even then, he would just need to follow whatever he did. 

  After facing such matters and vile plans from him, he understood that Lin Fan wasn’t a normal person. It seemed that everything he did was filled with huge benefits. 

  However, things weren’t so simple. 

  He needed to head back and settle his Father down with his plans and make him split their own grain. Although this wasn’t a huge matter, if Father didn’t understand then he would be extremely disappointed in him. This was why he had to tell him in advance. 

  A week later. 

  Lin Fan had nothing to do all day. 

  He could finally feel how free a rich family’s young master was. 

  Even the assassin suddenly disappeared, it was like he evaporated from the world and stopped finding problems with him. 

  In the past, he would have thought that he was at the peak of his life. However, he knew that it was impossible and that the assassin was just probably tired and was storing up energy for another wave of attacks. 

  He walked around the city. 

  He wanted to find some rage points. 

  However, what made him feel despair was that there was nothing at all. 

  Yuan Tianchu suddenly disappeared too, he couldn’t see even a shadow of the man. He found out that Yuan Tianchu learned from him and reduced the taxes. He also gave some of their lands to the refugees to form new villages. 

  To him, this was a good thing, at least he didn’t find trouble with him. 

  No matter whether or not he succeeded in making him angry or not, the unlucky ones would always be those refugees. Now that they had a way out, it was a great start. 

  That day. 

  A carriage sped into You City. 

  It wasn’t really luxurious looking, but it was still closely guarded. It pulled a large box. 

  Everyone who passed by would take a look. 

  Although You City was considered a city, people would rarely ride horses and carriages here. 

  Cuilan followed the carriage nearby and looked at You City’s environment. She frowned and said softly, “Little Miss, we have arrived in You City but the environment here is so cheap. There’s no comparison with our Rong City at all. Their roads are all made from mud, if it rains it would be so difficult to walk.” 

  “Let’s head to the Lin Family first.” Li Zhixiu’s voice spread out from the carriage. 

  If the people who didn’t know the situation could see this, they would think that Li Zhixiuwas eager to marry herself out. 

  However, her thoughts were really obvious, she wanted to meet the Lin Family Young Master quickly and assess him. If he was too ugly, she would leave right away. 

  Even if she was really casual, she wouldn’t easily marry herself away. 

  Cuilan could only look down on You City. It was really broken, there was no way she could compare it to Rong City. 

  It wasn’t that she was picky. 

  But to her, her Little Miss was so outstanding, how could she marry into such a dilapidated place? She should definitely marry into those rich aristocratic families. 

  She felt unfortunate for the Little Miss. 

  Lin Family Manor. 

  The two guards looked on, their bodies were straight and they didn’t move at all. The guards were all people who received training, they weren’t people that the guards of the Yuan and the Liang Family could compare to. If they really fought, they would be able to beat up a bunch of people. 

  They saw the mark on the carriage and knew that it was the sign of an aristocratic family. 

  Li Zhixiu pulled open the blinds and got down from the carriage. 

  The guards were shocked seeing such a beautiful girl. However, she wasn’t weak and soft at all since she was someone who cultivated for a long time. 

  “Who are you looking for?” The guard asked. 

  Cuilan originally wanted to reply for the Little Miss. However, the Little Miss instead said it directly. 

  “Rong City’s Li Family.” 

  When the guard heard this, he immediately understood. The Old Master helping the Young Master find someone to marry wasn’t a secret, everyone knew about it. 

  He immediately welcomed the Li Family’s Little Miss and then went to inform the Old Master. 

  However, to the guards, this matter was a little weird since it wasn’t confirmed yet. She headed over here like she couldn’t wait for the marriage to happen. Was Young Master really that charming? 

  Moreover, to the point that one couldn’t resist at all? 

  Lin Wanyi was reading in the reading room when he was informed that the Li Family’s Little Miss was here, his expression changed. He was delighted. 

  This was a good thing. 

  She came over here personally. 

  It was like she was eager to marry him. 

  “Brother Wu! Call that kid over and ask him to wear something better. If he doesn’t listen, I will skin him alive.” 

  Lin Wanyi was really anxious. 

  This was because he also knew that the unfilial kid resisted the idea of marriage. 

  If he didn’t wear something nice and just walked out. He would be giving himself and the family a bad image. If that happens…?wouldn’t this whole thing blow over?
