"Father, you're talking about your romantic history again. Aren't you afraid Mother will hear?" At this mont, a beautiful and charming woman walked in from outside. She was tall, fair-skinned, with a hint of mature aura, about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, and had a very strong presence.
Although this aura didn't co from martial arts, it was still the aura of a strong person. This woman should have remarkable achievents in so field.
"Oh, it's Lingyu. Are you finished with the rchant association matters?" Luo Yunyi said with a smile.
"Almost, but I can finish the rest at ho too. I forgot sothing at ho. By the way, who is this? Don't tell it's another brother I've never t." Luo Lingyu looked at Xiaoyao and easily ca to this conclusion, because this wasn't the first ti—she had experienced this four tis already.
"That's right, that's right. This is your brother Xiaoyao, twenty-one years old this year, ranking as fourth." Luo Yunyi said with a smile, though the smile was sowhat bitter. The past was too painful to recall.
"Yes, currently anyway. Who knows if there will be others coming to cut in line later." Luo Lingyu smiled. "Brother Xiaoyao, call Big Sister. Currently I'm the eldest. From now on, we'll be family."
Luo Lingyu extended her delicate jade hand, with its jade-like fair smoothness that made people feel it should be very soft and tender. Most people would imdiately step forward to grasp this hand.
Luo Lingyu felt she could extend her hand because the other party was her brother. She didn't need to verify this—her father and he were very similar, and even she didn't resemble their father to this degree. Plus, given her father's romantic history, there was no need for any doubt.
...
...
Under normal circumstances, Luo Lingyu wouldn't extend her hand to let people touch her—she didn't have this habit. Perhaps she was happy that their branch finally had a male heir.
However, what she didn't expect was that while she extended her hand, the other party showed no intention of extending his.
"I'm sorry, I'm not your brother. I can call you Sister Lingyu." Xiaoyao shook his head.
"So you're still holding a grudge against Father. He really is quite despicable. But he's still our father. Forget it, we'll talk when your anger subsides." Luo Lingyu smiled, not finding this strange. She withdrew her hand, then greeted both Xiaoyao and the others before going inside.
"I'll also return to my room first!" Xiaoyao also went to his chosen small courtyard afterward to organize things inside. Although Luo Yunyi had called servants to tidy up, Xiaoyao refused.
Xiaoyao didn't like being waited on by others—it made him uncomfortable. Besides, it was best to maintain a private space if possible. This was also why he didn't want servants attending to him.
Xiaoyao began organizing things while also organizing his thoughts...
The situation had developed to this point, which Xiaoyao had never anticipated. He hadn't expected that instead of resembling Luo Yuntian, he resembled this Luo Yunyi. And this Luo Yunyi was also a casanova who didn't even know how many seeds he had scattered outside, resulting in this misunderstanding. But this was also good—he could use the current situation to understand the Luo family and learn about Luo Yuntian's recent situation. If there was a chance, he could directly approach Luo Yuntian.
Now his identity could be considered Luo Yuntian's junior nephew, which was very suitable for disguise and wouldn't attract others' attention.
Wasn't it said that Luo Yuntian liked drinking? This was actually a very good approach thod—make so good wine, create opportunities to drink with him, then he could extract information.
As for Yun Qingyi, he still needed to continue investigating, but if there were no problems with Luo Yuntian, then seeking out Yun Qingyi would be redundant—the result would be the sa anyway.
So, find opportunities to approach Luo Yuntian!
For now, first adapt to this Luo family...
After cultivating for a while, dinner ti arrived. Xiaoyao went out for dinner, and this ti two more girls appeared—one called Jinsuo and one called Zhen'er. One was slightly older than Xiaoyao, one slightly younger.
The older one was Jinsuo, ranking third, twenty-three years old, managing a pawnshop in the family. Zhen'er ranked fourth—well, if not counting Xiaoyao; if counting Xiaoyao, she'd be fifth. She was twenty-one this year, about half a year younger than Xiaoyao, and was a sitting physician at a dicine shop while also handling the shop's business.
Like the eldest, these two had no talent in martial arts, but their achievents in their respective fields were quite good. With Third Master Luo's cultivation and protection, they could all be said to stand on their own.
Of course, although they didn't have high martial arts talent, they still cultivated and weren't too weak. The lowest was at early King Level, while the eldest seed to have reached late King Level. In ordinary families, this would be considered genius level, but in the Luo family it was far from enough.
The eldest was already twenty-five years old and still at late King Level. Under normal progress, she'd still be before mid Emperor Level at forty, stopping at Emperor Level for life—and that was assuming no obstacles.
For the Luo family, Emperor Level was rely mid-tier combat power and wouldn't be valued, so these three chose other professions.
At the sa ti, although the Luo family didn't value people like them, mid-tier combat power was still an important component of strength. So the cultivation resources they could obtain were quite abundant. As long as they continued cultivating, there would be a steady stream of resources, unless they gave up themselves.
The Luo family allocated resources based on each family mber's strength level. Everyone had fixed monthly pill allocations—this was for ordinary people. Those who focused on cultivation would get more, and those with high cultivation talent would get even more resources.
Everyone was treated the sa—even the family head had no special privileges and couldn't take more. At the sa ti, even the lowest-ranking people had the right to resources, and no one could shortchange them half a pill.
It was precisely under this cultivation system that the Luo family's combat power grew stronger and stronger, even surpassing so powerful families. For the current Flowing Stone Kingdom, it was actually completely insufficient for the Luo family's developnt—of course, this was on the surface.
In secret, the Luo family had many other industries that, unknown to others, provided resource supplents for the Luo family to satisfy their developnt needs.
These things currently had nothing to do with Xiaoyao, and he didn't want to understand them. He was just puzzled—although this Third Master Luo seed like a scoundrel, each of his daughters was beautiful and charming, rare beauties. At the sa ti, although their temperants were all different, they all made people feel very comfortable and well-bred.
"Call Xiaoyao, don't call brother. I'm really not your brother." Xiaoyao reminded them again.
"We know, we know, we understand!" the two newly t sisters said with smiles.
"Seeing you all getting along so harmoniously, I feel very comforted. From now on, our family will all eat dinner together like this." Third Master on the side interjected—he was getting emotional again.
"Get lost! I've been patient with you for a long ti. Tell exactly how many more children you have outside!" The Third Madam, who had been smiling beside Third Master, exploded in anger, dragging Third Master aside for a scolding.
"Aren't you going to say sothing?" Seeing this situation, Xiaoyao didn't find it strange, but he was surprised that the other three won continued eating as if nothing had happened.
"Say what? Mother always explodes like this when she encounters such situations. She'll feel better after venting. Who told Father to owe her so much? She's still very virtuous—this kind of situation only appears at special tis. It didn't scare you, did it?" Luo Lingyu said with a smile.
"Mm-hm, it'll be fine tomorrow. Mother is very gentle." Jinsuo and Zhen'er nodded together, firmly agreeing with this statent.
Well, if soone like this encountered the Young Miss and the others, it would be strange if they didn't castrate him. This was already very rciful.
"By the way, where's Lingjiu?" the eldest, Lingyu, asked. The Lingjiu she ntioned was the second daughter.
"She should still be brewing wine, or she's drunk and lying in the brewery. I'll go check later." Jinsuo said.
"No need, how could I be drunk? I just drank a little too much..." A swaying figure ca in, and by the end she even burped from alcohol—clearly she had drunk too much and was indeed sowhat intoxicated.
Xiaoyao looked over and found that this Lingjiu was also a beauty with a hint of charming allure that was quite captivating.
Damn, these four sisters were all beauties, and of a very high degree of beauty. Their features seed to have so resemblance to Princess Zhuyue. Well, this showed they were quite similar to Luo Yunyi.
Xiaoyao was the sa as Princess Zhuyue and sowhat similar to Luo Yunyi—this was an easy conclusion to reach.
Having four daughters as beautiful as princesses, who knew what kind of fortune this Luo Yunyi had cultivated? Xiaoyao even wanted to spit in Luo Yunyi's face—are these daughters really your biological children?
Of course, this was unquestionable—it was just Xiaoyao's malicious internal complaint!
"Eh, why is there a handso young man here? Whose lover is he? Is it Big Sister's? You finally found soone? But this feels a bit like an old cow eating tender grass..." Lingjiu saw Xiaoyao and said drunkenly.
"Bah! Your mouth—I'll tear it off sooner or later!" Eldest sister Lingyu grabbed Lingjiu and patted her face a few tis, trying to sober her up.
"Ah, why are you hitting ? Are you embarrassed?"
"This is our brother, fourth child, Xiaoyao!" Lingyu said, having Zhen'er give Lingjiu a sobering pill plus so acupuncture.
"So Dad is adding another brother for us. Dad, you're really sothing." Lingjiu said to Third Master on the side. That Third Master was in for it—Third Madam was like adding fuel to fire, obviously increasing the intensity of her scolding.
Lingjiu, you girl, I'll deal with you tomorrow! Third Master could only say bitterly in his heart.
