The words of the Black Wind Marquis were extremely tempting.
For a moment, many of the dukes slapped their thighs, shouting that the Black Wind Marquis was decisive and cunning.
Although the Eastern Empire was a hereditary nobility and feudal system, in order to recruit capable people, they had also opened up some openings for the lower levels.
For example, if a cultivator became brothers with a duke and obtained the permission of the imperial court, they would obtain the qualifications to participate in the Hidden Dragon Trials and compete for titles and lands.
For a time, Jiang Tian was surrounded by more than twenty southern dukes, all of them trying to curry favor, all of them trying to be humble, and all of them calling each other brothers.
There was only one goal:
Come to my residence to preach and learn!
As a result, Lin Hanqing and his son, who had come to express their gratitude, could not squeeze in.
On the other hand, the originally lively Marquis of Purple Robe was instantly deserted in front of the door. Only the Marquis of Shanshui and a few other loyal followers were there.
But even so, among these loyal marquises, there were some who secretly made up their minds to contact Lin Hanqing and Jiang Tian in private to see if they could give their descendants pointers.
It could be said that after this battle, the wind had unknowingly changed. Because of Jiang Tian, more than half of the dukes had turned from Marquis Purple Robe to Marquis Zhenyuan Lin Hanqing. Lin Hanqing had instantly replaced him, becoming the core of the southern dukes!
"Black Wind Marquis, go to the side. You're just a half-step Divine Transformation Stage cultivator, how dare you call Mr. Jiang your brother!"
At this moment, another marquis walked out. With a shoulder, he pushed Black Wind Marquis to the side.
Then, he took over the seat and said with a smile, "Mr. Jiang, I heard that you still don't have a dao companion. Sigh, you don't know, my wife's stomach is disappointing. She gave birth to eight daughters, but no sons. However, each of my eight daughters is talented and beautiful! "If you come to my residence, hehe …"
"Marquis Tan Lin, this grandson, is actually so fierce. He didn't hesitate to give away all eight of his daughters to win over this Jiang Siqing! "
For a moment, the dukes were all in disbelief.
And this scene, for some reason, made the little princess Dongfang Ying and Eldest Princess Mo Yu a little uncomfortable.
Dongfang Ying's mouth opened and closed a few times, but Eldest Princess Mo Yu's beautiful face darkened, and she directly called out: "Marquis Tan Lin, you are speaking without restraint, you have lost the etiquette of the nobles, what do you look like! Why aren't you leaving yet? The Empire respects its teachers. Didn't you see that Minister Lin and Lin Yang have been waiting for a long time? "
At this moment, the crowd gradually dispersed, which also helped Jiang Tian out of his predicament.
In fact, these marquises' requests were quite a headache for him.
"For the Zhenyuan Marquis' residence to be acquainted with Mister, it is truly the Lin family's fortune! Lin Yang's cultivation has improved greatly, it's all thanks to Mister! "
Lin Hanqing bowed deeply, his eyes slightly red.
When Lin Yang arrived in front of Jiang Tian, he directly knelt on the ground and deeply bowed. He said with a tearful tone: "Thank you, master, for your guidance. Without your guidance, I and my family would have lost face this time!"
No wonder he was so agitated!
Think about it, who would be willing to bear the infamy of being a good-for-nothing?
Who would be willing to be trampled on and humiliated every day?
Who would be willing to sit by and watch their ancestors' blood, military exploits, and even their lives be robbed of their titles and fiefs?
Who didn't want to soar into the sky, crush their peers, and enjoy the admiration and envy of others?
Lin Yang wasn't someone who was willing to abandon himself. He didn't want to be a burden to his family. He also wanted to be his father's glory, and his lover's pride!
However, in these years, no matter how hard he worked, how hard he thought, how hard he cultivated, how he went out to train, how he traveled, how he treated pills like candy, and how he ate enough spirit herbs to raise two cows, he still couldn't find the opportunity to break through.
That moment of advancement still couldn't come.
For many years, he tried, worked hard, struggled, and was crazy.
He heard his father's helpless sigh behind his back, and saw Fang Gouyu clearly anxious but patiently encouraging him. He even secretly cried in the middle of the night when there was no one around.
However, later on, he despaired and completely gave up.
He indulged in love, cockfighting, and all kinds of fun and trampling on others. Only this short period of happiness could numb himself. Only by numbing himself and maintaining an unconscious state could he be less painful!
On the outside, he was arrogant and domineering, but in reality, the sensitive Lin Yang had always cared about these things. However, he pretended not to care at all. Thus, he learned to laugh at himself, learned to make fun of himself, learned to call himself a good-for-nothing, and called himself a good-for-nothing.
However, he met Jiang Tian!
Jiang Tian didn't despise him and called him brother. He thought of plans for the Lin family and even helped him improve his cultivation, completely changing the trajectory of his fate. At this moment, he felt that Jiang Tian wasn't just his best friend in life, but also his big brother for life. Jiang Tian was his benefactor and benefactor.
In short, Jiang Tian was someone that he, Lin Yang, could give up his life for.
"This is what I should do! You don't have to be so polite. Why call me master? It's too restrictive! In the future, we'll call each other brothers! "
Jiang Tian laughed softly and helped him up with both hands. A trace of gratification flashed in his deep eyes.
In my previous life, you and your family had done me a great favor. However, because of me, you suffered an unexpected calamity. You were chased and trampled by the Tian Luo Sect and Yan Nanxian like wild dogs. In the end, your family was exterminated.
In this life, I've finally helped you improve greatly in your cultivation and rid yourself of that good-for-nothing reputation. You won't be weaker than others in the struggle for power in the Empire. However, how can this wash away the guilt in my heart?
This isn't enough. It's far from enough. I want to help you go higher and further, enough to dominate this continent!
"Haha, congratulations, Brother Lin. However, all good things must come to an end. I see that it's getting late. The Eldest Princess must be tired and should rest. This banquet ends here! "
At this moment, the Purple Marquis also coughed and stood up. He smiled and acted as if he was sending off a guest.
"That's right. Zi Yunxiao is heavily injured and still needs to recover. Purple Marquis, quickly go and take a look! "
Seeing this, the Marquis of Shanshui and the other Marquis who were close to him hurriedly said.
Originally, this banquet was a trap set up by the Purple Marquis. On one hand, he wanted to seize the Spirit Veins and Herb Gardens of Tiger Head Ridge. On the other hand, he wanted to show off his son's cultivation and further unite the Southern Marquis to become an overlord, paving the way for his next big move.
Who would have thought that he would go for wool and come home shorn?
Because of this mysterious Mr. Jiang, Lin Hanqing was able to turn the tables around and fight a beautiful comeback. If the banquet didn't end now, when would it end? Were they waiting for Lin Hanqing to show off his strength? Were they waiting for him to stuff a handful of feces into their mouths and humiliate them?
They were wrong. Although Lin Hanqing had a straightforward personality, he was the kind of person who was kind-hearted. According to Jiang Tian, he was a bit soft-hearted.
In fact, he didn't want to humiliate the Purple Marquis at all. He was only concerned about his son's great improvement in strength and obtaining the title of Southern Border's genius.
"Lin Yang, let's immediately send your results in today's mock exam to your uncle Fang Jinlong. Aiya, even Eldest Princess Mo Yu is full of praise for you. Crushing a Nascent Soul genius, this is a great honor! Hmph, let's see if this old man dares to say that my son is not worthy of his daughter again? Damn, I still think that his daughter is not worthy of my son! "
This guy put his arm around his son's shoulder and walked out, chattering endlessly.
The other Marquis' heirs also bid farewell to Eldest Princess Mo Yu and the Purple Marquis. It was noisy.
And in the midst of this clamor, a cold and sorrowful voice suddenly rang out: "Marquises do not joke, nobles keep their promises. Just now, Zi Shan Marquis had said that the battle between Lin Yang and Zi Yunxiao will be waged with thirteen cities as the wager. Could it be that you have forgotten? Isn't your memory a little too bad? "
