Chapter 389: Settling the Fan Family
Chapter 389: Settling the Fan Family
Lin Xiao really did what he said that he would do. The other three took off their hat to him when they watched how he settled the new residence and formally proposed to Princess Lan Yi Hua in public.
He spared some time to visit Princess Lan Yi Hua to propose formally and send her a large amount of betrothal gifts. Marriage when cultivators were still a student was rare, so a lot of people were camping out outside when Lin Xiao came over with the gifts.
Looking at the row of gifts, many of them wondered how did Lin Xiao prepare them all. Did he empty all of his savings from his Spatial Ring?
Princess Lan Yi Hua was equally speechless when he saw the row of gifts. They were all precious herbs, ah!
"Did you really empty your Spatial Ring to prepare this all?" Princess Lan Yi Hua asked with frown.
Lin Xiao shrugged. "They're just some other herbs that Lin Yun couldn't make into pills."
He had many more but they were all less valuables. These were all already the best that he could prepare for Princess Lan Yi Hua.
"If he couldn't even make it into pill, do you think that I can make it into pill?" Princess Lan YI Hua was speechless. At times, she felt that she really need to knock Lin Xiao's head with a hammer to know what was inside his mind.
Lin Xiao shook his head. "You're from Lan Hua Kingdom, so I guess you might know some other recipes for them."
"Are you giving gifts for me or you're using me?" Princess Lan Yi Hua was amused at Lin Xiao's answer.
"Giving gifts, of course!"
At the side, Lin Yun was resisting the urge to roll his eyes at his brother's shameless remarks. It was obvious that Lin Xiao was giving it all because the two of them both didn't know what to use of these valuable herbs.
Since they couldn't use it for the time being, Lin Xiao chose to add it to the gifts. They were all very valuable and naturally worth much.
And Princess Lan Yi Hua was also part of them, so Lin Xiao didn't mind it that much for the herbs to move hand.
"Right." Princess Lan Yi Hua recalled that Lan Hua Kingdom did have some recipes. However, her talent in pills were not exactly that good since she didn't have much time to learn. She pursed her lips. "I'll show you the library when we all head over to Lan Hua Kingdom in the future."
"That's a promise then!"
"Mhm."
Lu Jian, who came to give his report, was speechless upon seeing the two of them. He had already finished talking with some other n.o.bles aside from the few big families. Some of them were willing to follow Prince Lin Xiao but there were many who were more skeptical of his chances.
He was late.
Compared to many other princes, who had already started to build their forces since they were young, Lin Xiao was late for so many years. Even the younger Prince Lin Hong was at a more advantageous position compared to him in terms of influential.
That was why Lu Jian hadn't been so successful.
"Your Highness."
"What is it, Lu Jian?" Lin Xiao turned to look at Lu Jian.
"I have already visited most of the smaller families and there's only a few left. Also, Fan Ling just contacted me to tell that she had settled the Fan Family."
"She had settled it?" Lin Yun was stunned. Unlike Lu Jian who went away to pay a visit to many other places, Lin Yun was staying around Lin Xiao in order to protect his brother. There was nothing that happened for the past few days, though.
It was so peaceful.
The n.o.bles didn't seem to be that interested in the news of Lin Xiao being one of the few who could open the door. Only some of them expressed their interest when Lu Jian paid a visit to them.
The other princes also didn't seem to be so petty as to make a move immediately. They were all waiting for the right moment to strike. After all, they still have several opponents and Lin Xiao was considered to be beneath their notices.
Lu Jian nodded.
"How did she do it?" Lin Xiao was curious.
Beside him, Princess Lan Yi Hua kept the Spatial Ring that Lin Xiao gave to her. Due to some missions that they took when they moved from one city to another, Lin Xiao managed to collect some Spatial Rings from their opponents. After erasing their mark, he used the Spatial Rings to divide his things.
"Compet.i.tion between the younger generation." Lu Jian smiled lightly. It was not that weird for Fan Ling to win the compet.i.tion. After being tempered by the h.e.l.lish training version Prince Lin Yan, she had long used to life and death battle.
Compared to that battle where she had to face those at higher cultivation at her and win at all cost, fighting against her clan youth was much easier.
She trashed all of them easily and claimed to be the number 1 genius of Fan Family.
"Being the number 1 genius of Fan Family is just the first step." Lin Xiao nodded and smirked. "In that case, shouldn't I also showcase my weapon to them so that they would want to follow?"
Princess Lan Yi Hua thought for a moment before she faintly recalled the lake that Lin Xiao had made in the past. Her lips curled up to form a small smile. If she was not wrong, that lake was formed by Lin Xiao's special method.
One that was undetectable.
If he could recreate the pond in Fan Family, would the Fan Family not want to support him?
That would be very interesting.
But this method would surely put Lin Xiao in attention because a lot of people would be wondering how he do that. Endless troubles will follow afterwards.
