Chapter 120: Chapter 120 Like-minded People

The Family Head and the Elder of the Fan Family exchanged glances, their eyes filled with shock, but also with a hint of solemnity.

Their gaze met, and they quickly reached a certain consensus, then looked at Zi Liyuan with smiles on their faces, even somewhat ingratiatingly.

“Nephew, as long as you bring four level 20 silver fire mage equipment as your betrothal gift tomorrow, our Fan Family will no longer hinder you from taking Fan Yuer and her sisters as your concubines!”

Whether this young man truly had connections with members of the four royal families remained uncertain, but if he could indeed produce four level 20 silver fire mage equipment tomorrow, then it was almost a given.

They had originally thought that he might grow into a ‘big leg1 to lean on in the future, but it turned out he was already a ‘golden leg !

With the support of the four royal families, his rise would be unimaginably swift.

At that moment, the Family Head and the Elder of the Fan Family were no longer concerned with Zi Liyuan being a practitioner of a special death-related class.

With the foundations of the four royal families, would it be difficult to obtain a few items that can conceal and shield one’s presence to evade the scrutiny of the Evil God in the Sea of Realms?

“Good, then I will bring the betrothal gift tomorrow and also take Fan Yuer and her sisters with me.

However, there is something I must inform the Family Head, the Elder, and Fan Hengcheng, the manager, in advance.

To avoid certain troubles, I will sign a Boundary Sea Contract with Fan Yuer and

her sisters.”

Concubinage is not like an official marriage, where a wife is brought home in a grand palanquin; as the saying goes, having concubines is also about ensuring their loyalty. Otherwise, like enchantresses, they could array a man’s head with several green hats—who can withstand that?

“Nephew, rest assured, we understand. The Boundary Sea Contract must be signed!”

Among noble families behind closed doors, the play can be as extravagant as one pleases, and they may even swap concubines among themselves.

To ensure that concubines remain obedient to their men, signing a Boundary Sea Contract similar to a servant’s agreement is commonplace among these families.

As a result, a look of understanding flashed in the eyes of the Family Head and the Elder of the Fan Family.

While a hint of resignation appeared in the eyes of Fan Hengcheng, he could only sigh silently on the side.

His daughter’s situation was special, and certainly, some tactics could be utilized to weave a network of relationships for Zi Liyuan.

After all, how does that saying go?

“Life’s four ironclad bonds: to have studied, fought, frolicked, and split spoils together.”

Being fellow practitioners, could their relationship be simple?

However, for the interests of the family and himself, Fan Hengcheng would not become an enemy of Zi Liyuan; in fact, he would even go out of his way to ingratiate himself.

As for the future misery of his own daughters, that was not his concern anymore.

To the family, they were merely tools for alliance marriages, ‘out of sight, out of mind’ once married off-who they chose was their own decision; should they be entrusted to someone unworthy, they had to bear the consequences themselves.

The matter was smoothly settled, and Zi Liyuan let out a quiet sigh of relief, while also feeling quite speechless.

The Fan Family priced their daughters openly, extracting value from him without consideration of whether he would grow into a powerful Lord and become a support for the Fan Family in the future.

Of course, Zi Liyuan actually preferred such straightforward transactions because, from then on, he could disregard the Fan Family entirely.

Later, when he became a great Lord and was in a good mood, he might bestow some favors upon the Fan Family. But if he was in a bad mood, then he’d just let the Fan Family fend for themselves.

The Family Head of the Fan Family, the elders, and Fan Hengcheng sent off Zi Liyuan with smiles on their faces and then hurriedly convened a family meeting.

What the Fan Family planned to do was beyond Zi Liyuan’s control at the moment, for he had returned once again to the altar square of the White Crane Academy.

Today was the day of the college entrance examinations. To ensure he was in top condition, he did not enter the dungeon, even after the number of entries had refreshed at midnight.

The examinations for the vocational applicants were still underway, so the altar square remained open to all prospective candidates.

If not now, then when? Zi Liyuan thought, intent on exploiting the opportunity. If it were not for his current level of only 45, inhibiting entry to third-order dungeons for level 60 and above, he would have rushed in and slaughtered indiscriminately without hesitation.

Entering the altar space, he chose a level 60 dungeon, casually selected the Hero difficulty, and dived into the space of the dungeon.

Upon entering the dungeon, Zi Liyuan summoned his Spirit and the Eye of Death at the same time, and first called forth Lao Tie, followed by the vast Skeleton Army.

With a Soul Value as high as 1076, he conducted two Elite Skeleton Summonings in a row, calling forth 1024 ghostly knights to form a well- organized Skeleton Cavalry Legion. Under his command, they split into three groups and pushed forward in a sweeping advance.

As for Zi Liyuan himself, he naturally mounted Lao Tie’s neck skillfully and began sweeping through the battlefield in the dungeon.

As the saying goes, one should pluck the feathers from a passing goose. Thrift is a virtue among the descendants of Yan and Huang, and Zi Liyuan followed the policy of ’kill all, loot all,1 not letting go of any items.

Even wild plants within the dungeon, as long as they exhibited any attributes, were plucked by him and thrown into his Spatial Backpack.

Sweeping through the dungeon, he hadn’t felt the exhilarating sensation of the Skeleton Army sweeping everything aside in quite a while.

This time, he truly felt reinvigorated, his mood greatly lifted by the efficiency, until he came before the final boss.

He patted the rounded and sturdy skull of Lao Tie, dismounted from his steed, and then watched Lao Tie charge forward with a thundering roar, big iron palms at the ready.

A pair of fist spikes, along with the eight claw spikes on its back, launched a relentless assault of ‘stab, stab, stab’ on the boss, spurting blood continuously with a hissing sound.

When the boss finally breathed its last, this pitiful level 60 Hero boss was left riddled with holes. If it had tried to drink a cup of water, it would have leaked right through.

Quietly collecting the boss’s loot, Zi Liyuan glanced at its mangled corpse, and, considering its total health pool of 1.5 million, took out a sack with a look of disdain to collect the body and casually tossed it into his Spatial Backpack.

After tallying the dungeon’s profits and exiting, he chose a new level 60 Hero dungeon and plunged right back in.

In just a few hours, he had used up all of today’s dungeon entries, gaining a total of 12 million experience points, which added to his existing 2.3 million, allowed him to level up once more.

“Damn! The profits from dungeons have really decreased. Now, with both me and Lao Tie leveling up, we need double the experience. This has severely slowed down my leveling speed.

After grinding four different dungeons, Level 60 Hero dungeons, basically killing all the monsters inside and including the clearance rewards, he could get more in some and less in others, averaging about 3 million experience per dungeon.

“I hope the Dragon Academy has dungeons with much higher experience yields, otherwise it’s going to take so much time to level up.” The Dragon Academy had a much deeper foundation than the White Crane Academy, so naturally, it would have more resources for dungeons. He was already looking forward to heading to Shenglong State and taking part in the Dragon Academy’s examination.

But for now, Zi Liyuan needed to deal with the mountain of ‘trash’ piled up in his Spatial Backpack.
