Super Rich Fantasy: I Grow Stronger By Spending Money-Chapter 341 - 341 Two Underlings
341 Two Underlings
“Congratulations, you’ve finally gotten what you wanted. Even if you don’t do anything, the Xiao clan will be destroyed by their small mistakes. It’s only a matter of time before they decline.”
When Ye Xuan found Xiao Mingyan, he was sitting there, deep in thought.
“It’s easy for you to return to the Xiao clan now. With your cultivation and strength, those elders and members of the Xiao clan will definitely support you. Xiao Hong can’t be the patriarch anymore.”
Ever since Xiao Mingyan left the banquet, many people had been inquiring about his whereabouts. The elders of the Xiao clan were unwilling to let go of such a genius and expressed their willingness to support him.
As long as he was willing to return, the position of the Clan Leader would definitely be his. They could even hand over Xiao Hong and the others to him to deal with. Yet, Xiao Mingyan had rejected such a great temptation.
“Xiao Wuyou’s ending wasn’t any better than yours back then. In fact, it’s even more miserable. Everyone is berating him, and Xiao Hong can’t find any doctor to treat his injuries.”
This was the way of the world, where the strong preyed on the weak. Now that Xiao Mingyan had gone through so many tribulations, he had risen to power with unstoppable might. Anyone could see that he would definitely shine brilliantly in the future.
On the other hand, Xiao Wuyou was like a shooting star that disappeared in a flash, not even making a big splash. Even Xiao Hong was implicated by him and now couldn’t even pick himself clean from the mess. The other members of the Xiao family had begun to doubt his abilities.
Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Xiao Mingyan didn’t look happy at all. He shook his head and said, “To be honest, I don’t want any of these.”
Xiao Mingyan sighed. The relief that he had expected to feel did not appear. Logically speaking, he should be happy that he had gotten his revenge, but now, he just felt empty.
“In the past, Liu Ruxue treated me indifferently, but she was very good to Xiao Wuyou. She always taught me to give in to Xiao Wuyou, and I always thought that it was because Xiao Wuyou had a weak body.”
Looking at Ye Xuan’s calm face, Xiao Mingyan suddenly had the urge to spit out whatever he had on his mind.
“Although I was a little disappointed, I could understand. It’s only today that I fully understand why. The human heart is made of flesh, after all. Even if I’m not her biological son, I should have been able to warm her heart after all these years.”
Ye Xuan could understand Xiao Mingyan’s feelings. His life had gone through such a great change in such a short time. Even if he now had the Root Bone of Chaos and once again stood on higher grounds, he could not erase the scars of the past.
“You have to know that some people are born to be venomous snakes. They can’t be warmed no matter what you do.”
Xiao Mingyan was a carefree person. At the moment, he just couldn’t get over the hurdle in his heart, which was also the reason why he didn’t want to return to the Xiao clan.
“Now that I’ve gotten my revenge, I don’t really want to do anything to Xiao Hong and his people either. They’ll get their retribution. I just don’t want to go back to the Xiao clan that is full of infighting.”
“Then where do you want to go? In all honesty, you don’t have to follow me just to repay my kindness.”
It was Xiao Mingyan’s fortune to obtain the Root Bone of Chaos. Ye Xuan had also completed his mission and received a large reward. The two of them could be considered to have complemented each other.
“If it wasn’t for you, I’m afraid I’d already be dead. No one would even care about my rotting corpse. I can’t even repay you in this life. Even if I have to be your servant, I’m very willing.” 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦m
Looking at Xiao Mingyan’s stubborn gaze, Ye Xuan knew that he had already made up his mind. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“If I let you be a servant, wouldn’t it be a waste of talent? Now that the matter here in Jade City is settled, I’m going to the Valley of Medicine Masters,” Ye Xuan seemed to have thought of something and added, “If you don’t want to go to the Valley of Medicine Masters, you can go to my sect.”
Xiao Mingyan was quite surprised, “Your sect?”
He had thought that Ye Xuan was some powerful itinerant cultivator who was used to being alone. He didn’t expect him to belong to a sect.
“The place where my sect is located is very secluded, and the scenery is also very good. There is no harm in going there to relax. After I finish my business in the Valley of Medicine Masters, I’ll return.”
In any case, Ye Xuan was going to the Valley of Medicine Masters for treatment, so there was no need to bring so many people with him. If Xiao Mingyan insisted on following him, refusing would be hard, so it would be better to just ask him to return to the Tai Qing Sect first.
“Alright, I’ll wait for you at the Tai Qing Sect.”
Going to the Tai Qing Sect was a good option. Although Xiao Mingyan had already fused with the Root Bone of Chaos, he had not completely absorbed the power within. It was just the right time to find a quiet place to cultivate in seclusion.
A’Tian, who was listening to the conversation between the two, seemed to have finally made up his mind after some hesitation and knelt on the ground.
This sudden action surprised Ye Xuan and Xiao Mingyan.
“What are you doing?”
“Young Master Ye, I know that I don’t have much strength, my cultivation is low, and that I will only be a burden to you, but can you let me follow you? At least I can take care of you on the way and help you run errands or things like that.”
After saying this, A’Tian felt uneasy, afraid that Ye Xuan would reject him. He knew that if he stayed in Jade City, he would not have a future. He had no parents anyway, so he had nothing to worry about. He might as well go explore the world with Ye Xuan.
After a few days of being together, in addition to Xiao Mingyan’s matter, even if A’Tian was slow, he could see how strong Ye Xuan was. After all, even Xiao Mingyan, who was once crippled, could get back up. What else couldn’t Ye Xuan do?
Ye Xuan usually didn’t show off, but he was stronger than everyone A’Tian had seen in Jade City. He had a feeling that Ye Xuan was the most important opportunity in his life.
“Very well. You can follow me.”
Ye Xuan could tell that A’Tian had a good personality. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have risked his life to report to him last time. Ye Xuan quite admired him.
A’Tian was extremely happy. He didn’t expect Ye Xuan to really agree. He immediately kneeled and kowtowed to Ye Xuan, “Thank you, Young Master Ye.”
In the future, A’Tian would recall this day and sigh in emotion that this was the best decision he had ever made. If he had not followed Ye Xuan, he would not have had such a great fortune of climbing up from the bottom. It was almost a miracle.
And thus began his life of ups and downs, but these were all stories for the future.
At this moment, he was just Ye Xuan’s little follower. He had no idea the road he would take in the future. He just wanted to seize this opportunity.
