Chapter 57

"Thank you all for coming to celebrate. I, Yang Yan, am very pleased. I hope that with your help, our Yang family can make progress together, and the four major families can work together to build Luoshui City into a first-class city of the Divine Wind Empire!"

In the Luoshui Grand Hotel, opposite the Fortune Money House, which is now the Nie Family Money House, Yang Yan held up his wine glass with both hands and said loudly.

That night, after practicing until late, he finally succeeded in mastering the first move of the Chi Xiao Divine Axe, greatly enhancing his strength. When he went to find Nie Yun, he found that Nie Yun had already left.

Seeing it was getting late, he didn't wait any longer and went to the Yang family alone. Yang Yan originally thought that this time returning to the family core, he would definitely face countless challenges and at least have to fight several battles. However, when the elders saw him, they were all as happy as chrysanthemums, and before he could react, they made him the first heir!

Even before he could ask for his mother to be returned to the ancestral hall, they brought it up on their own, and their attitude was completely different from before, like heaven and earth!

Could it be that his kingly aura had erupted, and everyone was convinced?

At first, Yang Yan felt a bit narcissistic, thinking he had suddenly become awesome. Later, he realized that it wasn't the case at all. Whether it was the family or the elders, while trying to get close to him, they were all subtly asking about his master's background!

His master?

He didn't have a master at all!

Of course, he wasn't stupid and knew what to say and what not to say. He always spoke ambiguously, but after doing so many times, others began to suspect. Soon, the son of the Grand Elder and the son of the Second Elder challenged him!

These two were at the peak of the True Qi Realm, weaker than him. He didn't hold back and used the first move of the Chi Xiao Divine Axe, the Flame Axe, right away!

Before, he had only practiced and never fought anyone, so he didn't know how powerful the first move of the Chi Xiao Divine Axe was. When he used it, he didn't hold back at all and used his full strength!

Boom!

The ground shook, and when he looked at the two idiots again, he found that they had been blown to pieces, dead as could be!

The combination of the Chi Xiao Divine Axe and the Flame Axe was so powerful that it really scared Yang Yan. He thought that killing the sons of the two elders would bring retaliation from the Elder Council, but after he acted, everyone's attitude toward him changed, as if they had seen a huge treasure! They no longer doubted his ambiguous answers!

Thus, he became the first heir of the family and began to wield power... and has been busy ever since!

After returning to the family core and becoming the second most powerful person under the patriarch, Yang Yan secretly inquired and found out the reason for the family's sudden change in attitude. It turned out that during the hunt in the morning, they had encountered an unparalleled strong person who claimed to be his master!

He didn't have a master at all!

After thinking for a while, Yang Yan suddenly realized that this could only be Nie Yun. The Flame Axe was bought by him, and the Chi Xiao Divine Axe technique was taught by him. In others' eyes, it was as if he had a powerful master!

After several busy days, he finally fully grasped the power of the first heir. Just as he was planning to find Nie Yun to ask for an explanation, he received the news that he would be announced as the first heir to the other three major families, so he reluctantly attended this banquet.

"Of course! It's easy to imagine that the Yang family will become stronger under the leadership of Young Master Yang Yan!" As soon as Yang Yan finished speaking, a young man also raised his wine glass and chuckled.

Feng Xiao, the young master of the Feng family!

At this moment, Feng Xiao's dantian was open, and he was no longer the listless person he used to be. Not only was he full of confidence, but his previously stagnant strength had also rapidly advanced to the peak of the Out-of-Body Realm!

In less than a week from the opening of his dantian, he had advanced from the early stage of the Out-of-Body Realm to the peak, proving that the advancement speed after the opening of the Hidden Blood Unity was indeed terrifying!

Of course, this rapid advancement was not unlimited. Reaching the peak of the Out-of-Body Realm, he felt that further progress would not be so easy!

But even so, his strength among the younger generation was definitely at the peak!

"I, Chen Xing, also congratulate Young Master Yang Yan. Our Chen family will always be the most steadfast ally of the Yang family!" Chen Xing, the young master of the Chen family, also stood up and raised his wine glass.

Although the high-ranking members of the four major families were all present, the four young masters were actually the ones with the highest status! The future leaders of the four major families!

"Heh, building Luoshui City into a first-class city of the Divine Wind Empire? Isn't that a bit too boastful?"

Just as Feng Xiao and Chen Xing were congratulating him, an inappropriate mocking voice sounded.

"Nie Qiang?"

Hearing the voice, the three young masters turned around simultaneously and saw Nie Qiang walking over with his hands behind his back, a smile on his lips.

"What do you mean by that?" Hearing his unfriendly tone, Yang Yan knew this guy wasn't here to congratulate him, and his face darkened.

"What do I mean? Heh, becoming a first-class city of the Divine Wind Empire is extremely difficult!" Nie Qiang ignored Yang Yan's dark face, smiled faintly, and sat down in the main seat at the table, his attitude arrogant and domineering. "If we continue to be a scattered group, it will definitely be impossible to achieve this goal. I have a proposal to discuss with the three young masters. I wonder if you are interested?"

The four major families were always on equal footing, with no one higher or lower. Therefore, the four young masters usually sat in four directions at the table, symbolizing equality. Now, Nie Qiang came and sat in the main seat, causing the other three to frown.

"Spit it out!"

Yang Yan, who was always straightforward and disliked scheming, saw his arrogance and directly waved his hand.

"Heh, Young Master Yang Yan, don't get angry. My proposal is of great benefit to our four major families! If successful, we can abolish the City Lord's Office and completely control Luoshui City! At that time, making Luoshui City a first-class city of the Divine Wind Empire will be up to us to decide."

Ignoring the angry looks, Nie Qiang tapped his fingers on the table, his face full of confidence.

"Abolish the City Lord's Office? That's easy to say, but the City Lord's Office has been in charge of Luoshui City for generations, with deep roots. Just you?"

Feng Xiao also seemed unhappy with his actions, but as a young master of one of the four major families, he couldn't act rashly.

"Of course, I can't do it alone. My proposal is that we four form an alliance and elect a leader. Once the alliance is formed, with the power we hold, breaking the situation where each of the four major families acts independently and opposing the City Lord's Office should not be difficult at all!"

Nie Qiang said with a smile.

PS: These chapters are a turning point. Nie Yun will soar from here, greatly increasing his strength. So please don't be impatient. The more recommendation tickets you give, the more updates there will be, and the exciting parts will come soon.
