Chapter 42 Choice (1)

"That's okay." Lu Yuan certainly had no problem with bringing his family members in to live there.

"It's just that if you take my family out to live here, I still need you to take my second grandfather's family out." Lu Yuan paused, "It's probably a family of seven, is that okay?"

He still remembered Lu Wu's kindness to their family, even though this was because they were relatives of the same blood.

The second grandfather Lu Wu is not alone. He also has a son, a daughter-in-law, and a little granddaughter. The little granddaughter is younger than Lu Yuan and older than Lu Yuan's sister Lu Qingqing.

In fact, Lu Wu also had an eldest son, but he was recruited as an imperial soldier by the Tiandou Empire ten years ago and died on the front line. He did not leave a son and a half, which was quite pitiful.

This was not just the case in Lu Wu's family. To be precise, more than ten years ago when the confrontation between the two empires was most intense, almost every household in the village would have young men and women die on the front lines of the imperial battlefield.

Among them are Lu Yuan’s grandfathers. The war between the Tiandou Empire and the Star Luo Empire more than 20 years ago caused the sacrifices of Lu Wu and Grandpa Lu Yuan’s generation in Lujia Village, leaving only Lu Wu and a few other young men to return. .

Later, the surviving grandparents of Lujiacun all died soon after returning due to old injuries suffered in the war, leaving only Lu Wu as the village chief of Lujiacun.

Fortunately, due to the existence of Wuhun Palace in recent years, the wars between the two empires have become less frequent, and Lu Yuan's family has enjoyed peace.

Otherwise, Lu Yuan's father, Lu Qing, would probably still be recruited as a soldier by the empire and go to the cruel imperial battlefield.

"Of course it's no problem." Yan Shou said nonchalantly.

He is a powerful soul king and the dean of Notting College. He has terrifying power, which is equivalent to the top rich man in a city in his previous life.

There is certainly no problem in buying two houses in the city that can accommodate civilians.

"Thank you very much, Dean." Lu Yuan said with a smile.

"I just hope you can practice more diligently and become the Soul Emperor as soon as possible." Yan Shou smiled and waved his hand, "Besides, as long as you have family in Notting City, I can rest assured~~"

Yan Shou looked at Lu Yuan with a long and profound look, which made Lu Yuan stunned.

Then Lu Yuan understood that Yan Shou's move was just to tell him that if Lu Yuan's family moved to Notting City at this time, Lu Yuan would have something in Yan Shou's hands.

Lu Yuan must think twice before doing anything in the future.

This is a threat.

Yan Shou smiled, but this was a real threat.

Of course, Yan Shou did this not to ask Lu Yuan to do anything, but to let Lu Yuan know that he must not betray the Yan family in the future.

Lu Yuan understood, but he quite understood Yan Shou's approach. After all, it was impossible to blindly extend favors and be gentle like the style of such a wealthy family.

Having a carrot in one hand and a stick in the other is their common approach.

"I know." Lu Yuan's face suddenly became a little indifferent.

Even though he understood the meaning of Yan Shou's threat to him, it was always a bad feeling to be threatened. This threat was still his family in this life.

Lu Yuan originally had a good impression of Yan Shou and even regarded him as an elder, but now it seems...

Their relationship is very clear, it is a pure cooperative relationship.

Lu Yuan needs the Yan family behind Yan Shou to provide resources, strength growth and protect his family, while the Yan family needs Lu Yuan to become a strong man in the future as the Yan family's support.

Both get what they need, and neither owes anything to the other.

fair enough.

Lu Yuan took a deep breath. In this case, there was only a pure exchange of interests, and there were no debts or favors.

Pure benefits are easy to repay, but debts of favor are impossible to repay.

"It's good that you know." Yan Shou said with a smile.

"Besides, how is your soul training going now?" He paused again and asked.

"Very good, I feel like I'm going to break through again soon," Lu Yuan said.

"Oh? So soon?" Yan Shou's eyes suddenly flashed with satisfaction, and then he said, "Then it seems that you will break through to a great soul master soon."

"Then it's time for me to put the next stage of the plan on your schedule."

"The next stage?" Lu Yuan asked curiously.

"That's right, the next stage..." Yan Shou said with a smile, "You don't want to stay in this little city of Notting for the rest of your life, right? At least... in our plan, you can't stay here. It’s been too long in a small town.”

"This is not conducive to your development. At least in terms of the quality of the soul rings, the soul hunting forest owned by Notting City, you know, only has the highest soul beasts that are no more than nearly a thousand years old. A soul beast that is more than a thousand years old is No."

"The best third soul ring for a soul master is a soul ring that is more than a thousand years old. This will be conducive to the subsequent enhancement and cultivation of your martial soul quality. Therefore, when you break through to the great soul master, you must leave Notting City."

"As for where to go... I can give you the right to choose." Yan Shou swiped his left hand from a sachet on his belt, and a map appeared in his hand.

Obviously, this sachet is another soul guide.

It has to be said that Yan Shou is really rich. After giving Xing Eclipse to Lu Yuan, he even got a soul guide.

Yan Shou unfolded the map in his hand. This was the map of the Tiandou Empire.

"First of all, there is Tiandou City, the imperial capital." Yan Shou pointed to the city with the largest scale and scope on the map and said, "Tiandou City is the most prosperous city in our Tiandou Empire, and it is also the city where the most dignitaries live. , the resources here are the best, backed by the Star Forest, and all the supplies of the empire will be gathered here."

"The only disadvantage is that you can't act recklessly in the imperial capital, because even our Yan family has to act with our tail between our legs in the imperial capital."

Lu Yuan immediately expressed his understanding. After all, it was the Imperial City of Tiandou. At the foot of the emperor and at the gate of the imperial city, there were almost no civilians in Tiandou City. They were all soul masters, and they might encounter powerful soul masters from the empire on the road every day. High-ranking officials and important officials in the court.

This is what is different from a small town like Notting City. More than 80% of the residents in Notting City are still civilians, and only a very small number can become soul masters.

In the rural areas on the edge of Notting City, the proportion of civilians is 99.99%.

A person like Lu Yuan whose martial soul mutates into a soul master might not be able to produce one in ten years, let alone one in a year.

However, the proportion of resident soul masters in Tiandou City is close to 100%, because they were all the descendants of soul masters. Even if the descendants of soul masters were down and mutated, and Yu Xiaogang's mutation failed, they would still be affected by the intake of nutrients, Due to the inheritance of the martial soul, he has two or three levels of soul power, and there is still the possibility of cultivation.
