The young masters dispersed. After today's farce, the ranking of the young masters should be reevaluated.
The eldest young master, He Yuanze, was still in the highest position. As the oldest, his accumulation over the years was enough for him to look down on all of his descendants.
The eleventh young master, He Yuanyi, had the strongest backing. He had the Celestial Sacred Clan, which was ranked number two in the Eastern Region. After the battle with He Yuanjun, everyone started to reevaluate him. He Yuanyi's underlings had completely crushed He Yuanjun's underlings in the group battle. He Yuanjun's underlings were all injured. If it were not for Elder Huo Ping, the situation would have been even worse.
The ninth young master, He Yuanchao, was quite slick in handling things. In this battle, He Yuanchao had appropriately sowed discord. After he succeeded, he had successfully retreated. This not only weakened He Yuanjun's power, but also indirectly pinched He Yuanyi's arrogance.
The thirteenth young master, He Yuanjun's performance in the Heaven and Earth Arena was terrible. He originally wanted to use the Heartless Clan's power to show off in the Heaven and Earth Arena and expand his influence in the Dewdrop City. However, in the end, he failed. Not only did he not make a name for himself, but his underlings were also injured. In a short period of time, He Yuanjun would not be able to make any waves.
There were a total of seventeen young masters in the Dewdrop City. These four young masters were the most competitive ones. The rest of the young masters, such as He Yuanzhang, who was defeated by He Yuanze, had weaker maternal backgrounds. Even if they still wanted the position of the city master, they did not have the strength to do so.
Now, other than the so-called 'Four Great Young Masters', the rest of the young masters were thinking about who they should entrust the token in their hands to. Today, everyone saw how He Yuanjun forced He Lin to abdicate the throne. This was also a signal for them to make a decision as soon as possible. However, no one could predict who would be the Master of the City in the end. Hence, these young masters with weak power were very hesitant. They only hoped that they could entrust the token to someone who could fight for the position of the Master of the City so that they could live the rest of their lives in luxury and enjoy the rest of their lives in peace.
These weak young masters and ladies were all hesitating on which side to choose. They were thinking about who they should give their tokens to, except for one person.
That person was He Lin.
…
He Lin's mansion was in the western suburbs of the Dewdrop City. The mansion was huge, but the interior decoration was very simple. He Lin was the most ordinary one among the concubines, born from He Fengyuan and a servant girl after drinking. Therefore, his mother's power was very weak. Growing from a young, he did not have any resources. Therefore, He Lin knew the principle of living frugally and keeping a low profile.
However, He Lin was He Fengyuan's real son after all, so the mansion was still much more spacious than many ordinary families. It had a black lacquered door with a silver ring, a cobblestone path, and a grey wall with mottled plum blossoms inside the door. The simplicity revealed the owner's love for cleanliness.
The mansion's house. Along, Master., He Lin's. Yun, he, I, I, Master, I, I, I, I, one, one. "
"Master, don't be impulsive. If it wasn't for Tang Ao's help, we wouldn't have escaped so easily … Ding Bo, prepare a small gift. Bring Chun Hua and Chun Tao to that young master and thank him," He Lin sighed. He was touched when he thought of Tang Ao's bravery and righteousness.
"Ah Da, don't be impulsive. If it wasn't for that Young Master Tang Ao helping us today, we wouldn't have been able to escape so easily … Uncle Ding, prepare a small gift and bring Chun Hua and Chun Tao to that Young Master to thank him." He Lin sighed. He couldn't help but feel moved when he thought of Tang Ao's righteous actions today.
"Young Master, today, Origin Jun He really went too far. However, we can't just sit and wait for death. Luckily, Young Master was calm enough today and didn't take Origin Jun He's token. Otherwise, I'm afraid he would have ordered his underlings to do something in the dark," Uncle Ding said faintly.
"Ding Bo, what do you think?" He Lin asked softly.
"I suggest that we recruit that Young Master Tang as our subordinate, and then fight for the position of City Lord!" Ding Bo gritted his teeth, and his aged body released an extremely strong Will of Struggle.
"This …" He Lin was shocked. As a man whose mother didn't have any background, he didn't think much about the battle for the position of Castellan.
"Master, Master Tang has an extraordinary bearing. He comes from the Seven Kills Sect, which is ranked third in the East Domain. If we can recruit him to fight for the position of Castellan, we'll definitely get extraordinary results," Yun Da said timely. He Lin's actions today made them understand one thing. In this world, even if you don't cause trouble, there will be people who will. It's pure nonsense that flies don't bite a seamless egg.
"That's right. Master, you've seen what happened today. Our branch has always been doing things in a low-profile manner and we didn't fight for the position of Castellan. Yet, we were provoked again and again by He Lin's side. The other masters all looked on with cold eyes and some even threw stones at us when we were down. We might as well go all the way and recruit Master Tang to take revenge!" Ding Bo said with righteous indignation. He was a genuine Origin realm cultivator. When he was young, he was recruited to Waterdrop City. He had always been by He Fengyuan's side, always at his beck and call. When had he ever suffered such humiliation?
"This … Ding Bo, Ah Da, I, He Lin, am not a coward. At first, I only wanted to protect my own token and protect the thing that I should have. But now, I'm being coveted again and again. I want to fight back … But I'm afraid that Master Tang's eyes are too high. This small temple of mine can't hold such a great Buddha like him." He Lin slowly spoke out his thoughts in his heart. His words at the end were a bit discouraged.
"How would we know if we don't try?" Ah Da said with a bit of excitement.
"That's right, master. How would we know if we don't try?" Ding Bo also said with excitement.
"This … Alright, go and prepare a small gift. At the very least, I have to go and thank him personally … Find out where Young Master Tang is as soon as possible, in case he leaves Waterpearl City." He Lin nodded his head, agreeing to the two's suggestion.
In an inn in Water Droplet City.
Tang Ao sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. After the battle just now, Tang Ao only felt that the True Origin in his body was abnormally active. An appropriate battle was very beneficial to cultivation. After this battle, the True Origin and potential of his body were stimulated.
That afternoon, the True Origin in Tang Ao's body broke out of his body and adhered to the skin of his body to refine his flesh.
That night, Tang Ao's Iron Steel Sand broke through to the Profound Realm. Because of these few days of hurrying on the road, the Mysterious Valley Legs also broke through to the Profound Realm. His True Origin flowed inside and outside his body and condensed.
On the contrary, the Ice Crystal Sword and Ancient Spirit Finger that Lin Jiang gave him progressed very slowly.
With a "ka" sound, the last acupuncture point finally melted under the nourishment of the True Origin. Tang Ao opened his eyes. At this moment, he broke through the 7th level of the Body Refining Realm and reached the 8th level.
