233: This is no longer the young clan leader!

Xu Yinyin said with a light laugh.

Speaking of her, almost everyone in the entire Lingwu City knew her; aside from her talent, it was her intellect.

Currently, the thousands of large and small businesses in the entire Lingwu City were thriving under her management, with profits even exceeding the previous decade's earnings by double. No one doubted that if Xu Yinyin were a man, she would undoubtedly be the future Head of the Shen Family.

Her voice was not loud, but the Cultivators eating nearby were stunned, even holding their breath. When they looked at the young man in white, their eyes were filled with deep shock.

His identity was self-evident!

Young Clan Master Shen!

In the corner.

"Is this your Old Ancestor's intention?" Shen Nian asked calmly.

Only loyal to Young Clan Master Shen!

This sentence was interesting. If Shen Nian were already the Clan Chief, it would be fine, but he was not yet. For the Xu Family to plan to go all-in on him, it seemed the news from Fentian Capital had already spread.

It had to be said, the speed at which news spread in this world of Cultivation was no slower than on Blue Star.

Regarding the news of Xu Wei's death reaching the Xu Family, Shen Nian was not surprised. After all, a protector was still alive, so there were naturally ways to send the news back.

At the same time, Shen Nian became a bit interested in the Xu Family. Theoretically, as the number one Family in Lingwu City, their foundation was in no way inferior to any Holy Land. However, their Clan Chief was now kneeling outside so humbly. This posture was clearly not for the status of a Young Clan Master, but for the true Head of the Shen Family.

The people of the Xu Family must have concluded that he would definitely become the Head of the Shen Family and wanted to take a stand in advance?

This was unexpected for Shen Nian. He had thought that because of Xiao Qinger, there would be another satisfying round of face-slapping, destroying the Xu Family, and then planting the seeds for the Xiao Family's rise.

It seems they are not all brainless villains...

【Ding, if not for the Host, the Daughter of Destiny, Xiao Qinger, would have encountered the Xu Family after escaping Fentian Capital. Because the Xu Family coveted the top-grade Soul Transformation Divine Ability within the raw stone and wanted to force a purchase, combined with the past grievances between the Xiao Family and the Xu Family being uncovered, the Xu Family would have begun targeting Xiao Qinger, intending to wipe out her lineage. In the end, Xiao Qinger would have broken the deadlock step by step and destroyed the Xu Family instead...】

【Sigh, it is just because the Host is too fierce, completely changing the Xu Family's mindset. Even without the Host taking action, some plot points have already changed.】

【Therefore, considering everything, no reward will be given this time...】

"Then why are you saying so much nonsense?"

【Host..., the System is also kindly explaining it to you...】

Shen Nian ignored the System and glanced at the frowning Xiao Qinger.

First the Fentian Holy Land, then the Lingwu City Xu Family. Good heavens, is this the protagonist's enemy-attracting aura? Everywhere she goes, there are villains. Is this going to be a path of being enemies with the whole world...

Wait!

Shen Nian was suddenly slightly stunned. He suddenly thought of something. If, according to the plot's development...

Then wouldn't the final entity Xiao Qinger faces be the Shen Family?

Behind both of these forces is the Shen Family!

Does that mean I am a Destined Villain?

Beside him, Xiao Qinger looked confused, completely unable to understand, but when she heard "Xu Family," she couldn't help but frown.

Thinking of what Old Ancestor Xiao Xuan had said before, it was this Xu Family that targeted the Xiao Family, which forced them to leave their homeland.

"Replying to Young Clan Master, it is the Xu Family's intention." Xu Yinyin answered with a smile, then immediately turned her gaze toward Xiao Qinger. "Miss Qinger, the grievances between the Xiao Family and the Xu Family from years ago have passed for too long. Those who once took action against the Xiao Family have long since died. Yinyin cannot make them come to confess their crimes, but Yinyin can promise here that everything the Xiao Family once possessed will be returned in full. We will also assist the Xiao Family in rising, and in the future, the Xiao Family can compete fairly with the Xu Family for the position of Master of Lingwu..."

"This is the only way Yinyin could think of to compensate Miss Qinger and Senior Xiao Xuan. If Miss Qinger is still not satisfied, feel free to put forward your own ideas..."

Her tone was gentle, making people feel very comfortable, and she had an innate temperament that made people involuntarily feel good about her.

When the news of Xu Wei dying at the hands of Shen Nian reached the Xu Family, Xu Yinyin arranged everything at the first opportunity.

She even prepared a way to deal with the Xiao Family's issue. Instead of always having a grudge, it was better to lay everything out on the table and resolve it early so the Xu Family could sleep soundly.

"I..."

Hearing these words, Xiao Qinger was stunned for a moment, and for a while, she didn't know how to answer.

She actually had no concept of the Xiao Family's ancestors, and in her heart, there was no real hatred; she just didn't know how to explain it to Old Ancestor Xiao Xuan.

"Miss Qinger, it's okay. You don't need to make a decision now. The Old Ancestor has already personally gone to Fentian Holy Land to invite Senior Xiao Xuan. At that time, we can see Senior Xiao Xuan's intentions." Seeing Xiao Qinger's concerns, Xu Yinyin immediately spoke gently.

Upon hearing this, Shen Nian looked at Xu Yinyin with interest.

Flawless.

This Xu Yinyin is quite clever.

"Young Clan Master, do you think this arrangement is acceptable?" Xu Yinyin immediately looked at Shen Nian and spoke respectfully. Although she tried her best to appear calm, she was actually panicking inside.

After all, the person in front of her could be called a legend; the youngest Human Emperor in history, whose single word caused the Fentian Holy Land's Old Ancestor to fall and the Fentian Holy Lord to become his slave!

How could this still be just a Young Clan Master!

Shen Nian looked at Xu Yinyin, pondered for a moment, and said: "The Xu Family is quite lucky to have you..."

"Don't let them keep kneeling; it looks bad..."

After this sentence was spoken, Xu Yinyin immediately showed an excited expression.

"Thank you, Young Clan Master!"

Immediately after, Xu Yinyin filled a wine glass and said respectfully: "Yinyin is here to congratulate the Young Clan Master on your coming-of-age ceremony in advance!"

"This is a gift from my Family to the Young Clan Master. Now that I can present it to the Young Clan Master personally, Yinyin will not be coy."

Just then.

Xu Yinyin took out a black wooden box, which radiated a rich aura of life.

"This is the Ten Thousand Divine Wood. My Family obtained it by chance in a Secret Realm. I heard the Young Clan Master practices Body Refining; this wood can temper the Bloodline, and if the Young Clan Master can Cultivate wood-type Cultivation Techniques, the effect will be more than doubled..." Xu Yinyin explained as she respectfully handed it over.

This item was quite precious and had a great effect on the Return to Void stage. This was also why the Xu Family had considered for a long time before choosing the Ten Thousand Divine Wood. It wasn't that they didn't have items for the Dao Integration stage, but the Young Clan Master came from the Shen Family, so how could he look at those? It was better to pick something Shen Nian could use.

Taking the black box, Shen Nian felt a gentle force surge into his hand. Even through the box, he could feel this rich vitality.

"This item is a bit lacking..." Shen Nian thought to himself. Now that his Indestructible Chaos Body had reached Major Achievement, he was invincible among those in the same Return to Void stage. This Ten Thousand Divine Wood was not enough to enhance his blood energy.

It's not even as good as Mu Wanqing...

Right!

Mu Wanqing, I can give it to her. She is naturally a wood-type divine body. With this item, her cultivation should be faster, and it should be good for tempering her Bloodline Power.

Thinking this, Shen Nian put it into the cangtian token.

Seeing this, Xu Yinyin immediately stood up, bowed deeply again, and left very sensibly.

Her business was done, and there was no need to stay any longer.

Outside the restaurant.

After seeing Xu Yinyin come out, Xu Quan immediately swallowed his saliva, as if waiting for judgment.

"Father, let's go. Don't disturb the Young Clan Master here anymore..."

Hearing this, Xu Quan's sturdy body trembled, and the people of the Xu Family also breathed a sigh of relief; their hanging hearts were finally put at ease.

"Yinyin, it is truly a blessing for the Xu Family to have you!!"

Xu Yinyin smiled shyly, turned her head to look into the restaurant, her eyes gleaming.

"Father, I plan to go to Tianyuan tomorrow..."

"Ah?"
