Chapter 67 - 66: Yao Family (Seeking First Subscription!)

"Why don’t I teach Little Sister Yun myself."

Seeing Chen Xuan’s distress, Liu Rushi spoke up to help him out of the situation.

"Sister Liu is also a martial artist?" Su Yun looked at her with a face full of surprise.

"Hahaha~~~" Seeing her bewildered expression, Chen Xuan suddenly burst into laughter, feeling much better.

There’s someone even more clueless!

Having been at the Chen Mansion for so long, she had spent even more time with Liu Rushi than he did.

And now she still didn’t know that Liu Rushi was an authentic martial artist.

Her perceptiveness... it’s really something.

"Brother Xuan...." Seeing everyone looking at her, Su Yun finally understood, and her face turned red as she coquettishly whined at Chen Xuan.

"Alright, alright, I won’t laugh anymore, won’t laugh anymore. Just learn from Miss Liu." He then turned to Su Wanqiu, "If you want to learn, you can join her too."

"Alright!"

Su Wanqiu nodded, a smile appeared on her face, she was happy to cultivate the Martial Dao.

But the most important thing was that Chen Xuan cared about her!

...

As for Xiaohai, although he promised to teach him, he was still too young, and the most important thing was he could barely recognize a few characters.

So, they first arranged for him to learn to recognize characters from a maid in the mansion.

Telling him, once he learned the characters, they would teach him.

Regarding this, the youthful face of Wang Hai was extremely determined, and he promised to study seriously.

When he said this, Chen Xuan felt like he was really growing up.

...

"What? There’s someone else?"

In the main hall of the Yao Family, Yao Tian was shocked upon hearing the news his father had brought back from the County Government Office.

The Yao Family had spent a huge fortune for the position of West District Hall Master, thinking it was in the bag.

Unexpectedly, this was the outcome.

At this moment,

Yao De sat at the topmost position, his face gloomy.

Today, he went to the County Government Office to inquire about the West District Hall Master, but received this result.

But in front of Zuo Qiu Ming, although discontented, he dared not show it at all.

Instead, he smiled and thanked him for giving the Yao Family this opportunity.

After all, he was seeking something from him.

But then,

Returning to the Yao Family, he started smashing things in a fury.

Seeing the mess in the hall, one could tell how angry he was right now.

"That old lecher is so despicable! Promised before, now he’s pulling this, isn’t he treating our Yao Family like fools?"

Spoke Yao Jing, Yao De’s eldest son, although he said so, there was a hint of a smile in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

In the Yao Family, the only ones eligible to compete for the position of Patriarch were him and Yao Tian.

This was why only he and Yao Tian were in the main hall; others didn’t have the qualification to be here.

The family spent an immense amount this time to ensure Yao Tian would get the position of West District Hall Master.

Know that,

The West District is the most important area in the black market.

In Yunze County, anyone with slight power covets the shops in the West District.

As long as the Yao Family controls the West District, those in Yunze County who want to ally with them will come flocking.

At that time, regardless of whether they originally supported the Chen or Pei Families, not all would defect, but a good portion would.

The Yao Family might then advance further.

But, what’s this got to do with him.

Getting it done would be all Yao Tian’s credit; it had nothing to do with him.

Moreover, by then, the position of Patriarch would be in Yao Tian’s pocket.

As for now, this situation was the best, better yet if Yao Tian didn’t get the position, then his standing in the Yao Family wouldn’t just fall drastically but also take a significant hit.

"Dad, who else is there?" At this moment, although Yao Tian was angry, he hadn’t lost his mind.

The position was too important to him.

"Don’t know, that old lecher didn’t say, I tried asking but was interrupted."

Whenever Yao De thought of what happened there, he would burn with anger.

"I think it’s either the Chen Family or the Pei Family, besides these two, who would dare vie with our Yao Family." Yao Jing said.

"You don’t need to say!" Yao Tian looked at him like he was an idiot, saying nothing of value.

What we need to know now is who exactly is competing with him for the position.

And how strong!

He’s currently Seventh Grade, although close to Six, whether he could reach Six Grade in this time, he wasn’t sure.

But,

Whether it’s the Chen or Pei Families, directly stronger than him, is at most negligible.

But if not accounting for direct relation, there are a few stronger than him.

Of course, the Yao Family also has some, but he doesn’t want that.

This time he had to get the Hall Master position himself, which was crucial for him to become the next Patriarch.

"Dad, if all else fails, don’t let the fourth take the spot, our generation in Yao Family has a few Sixth Grades, which would be safer."

"Eldest... don’t be too much!"

At this moment, Yao Tian seemed like a cat whose fur was standing on end, glaring fiercely at the nearby Yao Jing.

"What’s wrong? My dear brother, I’m considering the Yao Family’s benefits, look at you, why so angry! We can’t have spent so much at the Yao Family, only to end up with nothing but empty baskets!"

Yao Jing showed great grievance at this moment.

"Hmph, as if I don’t know what you’re thinking? Considering the Yao Family, Eldest, you’re really hypocritical."

"You see, I’m just making a suggestion, is it necessary to react this way? I’m still your brother, and it’s not nice to speak to your brother like that. Besides, Dad hasn’t agreed yet, Yao Family is still headed by Dad, so whatever’s done, is decided by Dad!"

"Quiet, all of you shut up!"

Yao De shouted angrily.

His tiger eyes glaring at his two sons below.

Ungrateful sons, they’re all ungrateful!

Eldest Yao Jing is malicious, hypocritical, a viper.

Fourth Yao Tian is useless, only cares about the Patriarch position.

How could he have given birth to these two?

"All of you leave, I want to be alone!"

"Dad...don’t listen to Eldest’s nonsense, changing to the collateral line would make Yao Family a joke." Yao Tian was anxious.

He knew exactly what kind of person his father was, seeing this situation, surely Eldest’s words moved him.

Yao De is a family-first man.

"Leave!"

Yao De instantly stood up, his tiger eyes glared, fully unleashing the aura of a Fifth Grade Martial Artist.

His long hair moved without wind.

The whole person was like an enraged lion.

At this moment, whether it was Yao Tian or Yao Jing, seeing the angry Yao De, their expressions changed.

Their father, if he truly gets fierce, even as his own offspring, they must obediently comply.

This is his authority as the Patriarch of the Yao Family.

Allowing no one to question it.

"Son takes leave."

"Tian’Er takes leave!"

The two successively left the main hall.

"Ah!"

After they left, Yao De was like a deflated balloon, sinking back into his chair.

With a complex expression.
