"Reporting, the couple and the grandson of the Ling family have arrived, they are being brought into the hall." A guard appeared outside the hall and spoke.
"Alright, you can go"
"Yes"
The matriarch and her husband had strange faces, and they knew something unpleasant would happen. The two did not care about the mother, for she was a more pleasant person and had a good temperament, but the double father and son of the Ling family were known to be arrogant and unbridled, but they only behaved in the face of weaker groups than they, for if they found more influential groups, the two were polite.
The door to the hall was opened and three people showed up, one of them was young and appeared to be about 25-27 years old, the other a middle-aged man, the two were alike and emanated an arrogant and proud aura. The third person was a middle-aged woman, she was beautiful, but her face had a few traces of age.
They came in front of the table and greeted the group that was sitting and eating.
"Nice to see you again, big brother, sister-in-law." The middle-aged man clasped his hands and spoke in a respectful manner, he did not dare to be arrogant or impolite before the Xiao couple, even though they were linked by marriage, their status was totally different. The woman and the young man also greeted the Xiao clan couple.
"It is very good to see you again too" The matriarch waved her hand and three chairs were placed on the side of the Ling older couple.
The chairs were in the following order, the matriarch and her husband side by side, next to the matriarch was Xiao Hong, Xiao Xi and Fang Luoyang with their daughters, then was Song Hanying, and her daughter, Liu Yang, the maternal and paternal grandparents of Song Hanying and Xiao Xi, and later was the couple of the clan Song that was next to the couple of clan Xiao.
The three new chairs were placed between the Song clan couple and Xiao Xi's paternal grandparents, the emperor was next to the matriarch's brother-in-law, while his son was sitting next to Xiao Xi's grandparents.
The matriarch made this arrangement to avoid conflicts, for she knew the three would come. And he feared that Liu Yang would do something excessive if he was provoked, the matriarch knew his personality, while the others did not provoke him, he would do nothing, but when he was provoked, Liu Yang would crush his enemy.
This was what the matriarch most feared, even more so after Liu Yang reached 1000 level and rank 10, he was someone no one in the Nine Worlds dared offend as he had no opponents at his current level unless the ancient ancestors who had only a few minutes to live out of their temporal coffins and fight against Liu Yang.
...
When the three of them joined the table, the mood grew heavier and weirder than before, for it was possible to sense the animosity of the Ling family group over Liu Yang. But he did not care about it and just play with his daughter, Liu Lan, she returned with Fang Luoyang after a year of training with Shylia.
She was much more beautiful and sensual than before, not her body, but the aura that Fang Luoyang emanated was far more attractive and seductive than before.
Anyone would look at her now, whether she would be attracted to her, whether male or female. This happened when the Ling's grandson entered the hall and looked at Fang Luoyang, he felt as if he had ripped out his soul and the enslaved. Even though her ability was not active, it showed how strong her innate talent was after Shylia's s.e.xual and perverted training.
The tense, heavy weather did not last long after everyone had finished eating and the maids took the dirty dishes and brought tea, the first person to speak was of the matriarch's brother-in-law.
"Young surnamed Liu, I'm really impressed with your achievements, it overshadowed all the other young people of the Nine Worlds. You truly deserve the t.i.tle of the most impressive young man in the Nine Worlds, and the sister-in-law had married her only disciple and youngest daughter to you was the best decision she does. "His voice held admiration, but internally, he had great envy and jealousy not only of Liu Yang but also of his older brother Ling Xi.
"Thank you for the compliment, it was due to the guidance of my master and the encouragement of my wives that I got to that point." Liu Yang knew that the matriarch's brother-in-law's name was Ling Li, he realized Ling Li had some resentment towards him because of which Fang Luoyang was taken by him. Because of this, when Liu Yang received the praise of Ling Li, he did not look at him and just answered randomly while playing with the three little girls.
This disrespectful att.i.tude towards Ling Li left the elderly Ling clan couple disgruntled, even the son of Ling Li was angry with Liu Yang for the way he was treating Ling Li. But none of them could do anything about it, for Liu Yang's status and strength were too great for them.
For only the hundred bodyguards of Liu Yang were enough to destroy the main branch of the Ling clan, even though they have millions of years of stories, they did not have as many people at level 900 and rank 9 as Liu Yang at most they were only thirty or forty, that was a considerable amount for a great clan.
But in the case of Liu Yang, a hundred people at that level were just his bodyguards, what would be the total number of specialists if all of the Explorers' Factions left? They had no idea about it, many powerful clans and sects did not want to do anything about Liu Yang because of this fear.
And besides, Liu Yang was at level 900 and rank 9 and was also the son-in-law of the Xiao clan and the Song clan, these two statuses were like three plus weights. Who was stupid enough to try to do anything against Liu Yang? Only idiots would do this, or those who had confidence in doing so had that kind of thinking.
...
"Luoyang, congratulations on getting to level 500 and rank 5, I know I'm a bit late, but I still wanted to congratulate you for this achievement." The person who spoke was Ling Lie, he was the son of Ling Li. He had a youthful appearance of a 25-year-old, despite the appearance, he had been more than almost three hundred years. Ling Lie was a few tens of years older than Fang Luoyang.
"Young of the Ling family, please do not call me by my name, we are just known. You do not call me so intimately. "Fang Luoyang did not like the way Ling Lie called her, the two were only known and only met one time or another. The two were not familiar with each other to the point of calling their own names.
These words left Ling Lie with a dark and hateful face, he never imagined that Fang Luoyang would embarra.s.s him in front of the five most influential people of the Nine Worlds.
Ling Lie began chasing Fang Luoyang after he met her when he visited the Xiao clan hundreds of years ago. Ling Lie's parents and paternal grandparents tried to tie them both up, but it was a pity that Fang Luoyang did not accept it, and the matriarch followed her desire and also made it difficult.
Although he had tried several times to catch the attention of Fang Luoyang, she had never been interested in him, Ling Lie never understood why he thought he was influential and powerful enough to be her match.
When he received the news that Fang Luoyang was engaged to someone from a mysterious background, he went into despair. For the woman he wanted was taken by another man, Ling Lie did not know the strength of this man, his background was extraordinary because they took five drops of juice as a wedding dowry, this proved his power.
However, everything changed when Ling Lie discovered that Fang Luoyang's husband was Liu Yang, he also received the news about his power and status. Before Liu Yang entered the secret realm he was already at level 500 and rank 5, this was the information that the Nine Worlds knew.
Ling Lie had curiosity, jealousy, and envy of the unknown man who took Fang Luoyang as his wife, but after discovering this ident.i.ty, these three feelings turned to hatred, for he already had some prominent women like Xinyue, Zi Jiao, but he too led Fang Luoyang.
After the secret realm, which was shown that Liu Yang also had a dryad as his wife, and was not any dryad, she was the princess of the dryad race. This fact further increased his hatred of Liu Yang.
The next news was about Liu Yang having a daughter or G.o.ddaughter who was extremely handsome and powerful, Ling Lie also fell in love with Little Silver at first sight, but it was a pity that only Liu Yang could get close to her, the other young people could never speak with her not at all.
Later, news about Liu Yang being the husband of Xiao Xi and Song Hanying spread, Ling Lie hatred became much deeper than before, as Liu Yang got two more influential wives.
Ling Lie began to wonder why Liu Yang was taking the women he wanted to have. For when he saw Aisha for the first time, he fell in love with her beauty and power, he immediately thought that Aisha could be his wife in the future, but everything was destroyed when Ling Lie saw that Liu Yang and Aisha already had a daughter together.
But when the news about Liu Yang has reached 900 level and rank 9, Ling Lie could not stand it and spat blood before fainting from hatred and despair.
Ling Lie's situation was like Song Min's, the two were young masters who were raised as spoiled children and always had what they wanted, this increased their egos and arrogance. And when they find a situation like this, where what they most desire could never belong to them, they would go crazy with hatred.
For they always thought that what they wanted must belong to them, and no one else could have only themselves.
This was the situation of thousands of spoiled young masters of the Nine Worlds, for they always thought they were the best due to their status, despite their lack of strength.
These young masters took an interest in Liu Yang's women, but it was a pity that none of them could arouse their interest. They could only spit blood and faint because of the hatred towards Liu Yang.
Luckily, not all the spoiled young masters were brainless idiots, during his journeys through the Nine Worlds, the shadow clones of Liu Yang encountered several arrogant young masters, but they were still conscious of understanding that there would always be someone stronger and influential than they.
And it was with this kind of person that Liu Yang made friends because they were the kind of person worth making friends with, whether male or female. Liu Yang found some strong and beautiful women in his journeys, but he did not take them as his maids or wife, as he did not have time for this. Liu Yang was only enjoying the trip and did not intend to pick up women on the way.
