âTaoâ er, how can I face my ancestors like this? Besides, Iâve kept the position of city Lord for you. â Yan kun said with a sigh.
âFather, our Yan family is not even worth mentioning in the divinity. If we really anger the other party, wonât the Yan family be the one to suffer? Moreover, itâs not the same if we give up the city of our own accord as if theyâve taken it away. After all, the divine world is ruled by the strong. If we donât have the ability to defend our own territory, in the eyes of others, weâll only be regarded as incompetent. â
âAnd my eldest uncle has always been eyeing Northern Salt City covetously. I admit that I am not cut out to be the city Lord. Rather than letting Northern Salt City fall into my eldest uncleâs hands, I would rather give it to an outsider.â Yan tao was very honest. In fact, he did think so in his heart. He did not want to be trapped in this city. He loved refining weapons the most, and once he became the Lord of a city, he would not be able to focus on being a Weapon Master. Moreover, he knew his uncleâs character. His uncle had planned for many years, how could he let the meat by his mouth benefit a bastard son like him?
âYou donât regret it?â Yan kun watched his 2nd son very seriously as he asked.
âFather, you should know that this is not my goal.â Yan tao said seriously.
âAlright then! Then weâll do as you say, AI! If her Excellency Leng Xiaoyu is willing to accept you as a disciple, father will be even more at ease. â Yan kun said after thinking for a while.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDad, Iâm already very satisfied that lady Xiao Yu is willing to give me pointers. Why would I be so greedy?â Yan tao said with a smile.
âHehe, I was too greedy. Taoâ er, itâs rare that you can see it clearly, but you must grasp this opportunity! Remember to come to the inn more often when youâre free. â Yan kun reminded.
âOkay, Iâll go find her Excellency Xiao Yu tomorrow morning.â Yan tao said impatiently.
In the room of the inn.
Leng ruoxue looked at Wu, who was sitting opposite her, and teased,ââWu, no one took advantage of you, right?â
âBad girl, do you really want me to be taken advantage of?â They all asked.
âWhy would I?â Leng ruoxue laughed evilly before asking,ââHow do you plan to deal with the city Lordâs son?â
âI want him to suffer a fate worse than death!â Wu said through gritted teeth.
âUh! Can I plead on his behalf?â Leng ruoxue chuckled.

âOf course not.â Wu glared at Leng ruoxue and said fiercely.
âAlright then! However, I still have use for that fellow. Donât play him to death. â Leng ruoxue reminded.
âYes, I know what Iâm doing,â Wu nodded and left the room.
Not long after, Leng ruoxue and the rest heard a series of howls coming from the room next door. The howls were so miserable that it made their hair stand on end. The howls had also attracted the attention of the innâs manager, waiters, and even the guests who were staying in the inn.
Leng ruoxue and the rest heard the noise outside and walked out of the room. When the shopkeeper saw them, he immediately came forward to welcome them and said with some difficulty,ââMiss, I wonder what happened in that room?â
âItâs nothing. One of my subordinates âold illness acted up again. Iâm really sorry to have disturbed the other people in the shop.â Leng ruoxue looked at the people in front of her and said guiltily.
âUh! May I know what illness young ladyâs subordinate is suffering from?â The shopkeeper asked with an awkward expression.
âHeâs crazy. Heâs always delirious and likes to talk nonsense. He even likes to bite people when heâs crazy.â Leng ruoxue explained with a smile.
âArgh! Miss, he wonât run out of the room and scare the other guests, right?â When the innkeeper heard this, he couldnât help but feel a little scared. To be honest, he really wanted to ask this beautiful lady in front of him if she could ask that person to move to another place to stay. However, he didnât dare and didnât want to offend these people who didnât seem to be easy to deal with.
âShopkeeper, donât be afraid. He wonât run out of the room. Itâs just that when his illness acts up, his voice will be a little loud. However, it doesnât happen often. You can let the guests in the shop bear with it. Or, you can ask them to stay in another Inn.â Feng Da put his arm around the managerâs shoulder and suggested.
âIâll tell them. â The innkeeper said with a long face. Wu...How could he let a guest stay in another Inn? wouldnât that be sending money to others? How could he be so foolish?
âHehe! Long live understanding!â Feng Da chuckled. Then, Leng ruoxue and the rest closed the door and ignored the matter.
The next day, when yan tao came to the door, he heard the miserable scream. The voice was familiar, but he ignored it. Instead, he went to Leng Xiaoyu and asked her for advice.
That afternoon, Yan kun came to visit Leng ruoxue and the others.
Sitting on a chair in the living room, Yan kun felt a little nervous when he was faced with the probing gazes of the crowd. The young woman sitting opposite him was especially nervous. He was so nervous that he broke out in a cold sweat. Needless to say, that woman was Leng ruoxue! This was his first time meeting Leng ruoxue.
Damn it, what was going on? although he didnât dare to say that he was knowledgeable, there was no need for him to be so nervous and uneasy about a little girl! This was really too strange.
âMay I know why city Lord Yan has come to visit?â Leng ruoxue asked knowingly.
âUh! A few days ago, that unfilial son of mine committed a mistake. As his father, I am willing to compensate him. Therefore, I am willing to give Yanbei city to all of you. â Yan kun carefully thought of his words and then said.
âCity Lord Yan, I really donât care about such a small city. In fact, Iâm interested in the nightmare forest and want to make it my territory. However, the cities around it are the main roads into the forest, so I have to control them.â Leng ruoxue spoke the truth. Since Yan kun had already made his choice, there was no need for her to hide her purpose. After all, she intended to take Yan kun in for her own use.
After hearing Leng ruoxueâs words, Yan kunâs eyes flickered. He did not reply immediately, but seemed to be deep in thought.
âMiss Leng, are you planning to take over the cities around the forest for your own use?â Yan kun asked after a while.
âYes, I am.â Leng ruoxue nodded.
âMiss Leng, the nightmare forest is not a suitable place to be a territory. Otherwise, it would have been occupied by others long ago.â Yan kun couldnât help but remind her and secretly thought,âthis young lady has a big appetite!â He actually wanted to make that forest his territory. In fact, in the past millions of years, it was not that no one had ever tried to take that forest, but they had never succeeded.
