Chapter 1014 Trustworthy
Youran's team members were all calm and composed, with a strong face, and looked quite imposing. The weakest cultivation was also the realm of Nirvana.
Xiao Lingyu really couldn't figure it out, especially in this image, how could there be such a group of subordinates?
After some inquiry, I learned that Youran was the only successor of a big family in the longevity world. However, that big family has gradually declined in recent years. By Youran's generation, it can no longer support it. His more than 50 subordinates are the only remaining guards in their family.
These guards were carefully trained by Youran's father during his lifetime. They all received great favors from the You family and were extremely loyal to the You family. Therefore, after Youran's father unexpectedly fell, they continued to follow Youran and never left him.
Although Youran didn't say that, through his words and bragging to him, Xiao Lingyu could guess that this guy must be a timid guy who is not doing his job properly. Otherwise, how could this guy never think about reviving his family, and never thought about taking his subordinates to do a big career, but he took so many guard masters to live in the new city.
Xiao Lingyu had also heard that Youran had no feelings for his guards. He was even a little tired of these guards who only obeyed him and followed him all day long. The reason why he joined the Xiao family was to prepare for a comfortable life, while the other side was to transfer his guard masters to other families.
Xiao Lingyu could naturally satisfy Youran's two wishes. With the financial resources of the Xiao family, Youran could naturally live a comfortable life. The Xiao family was more willing to no longer command these guardian masters.
But these fifty guard masters were all stubborn. They only recognized Youran and followed Youran's orders. Xiao Lingyu had to let Youran continue to serve as the commander of the regiment, which made Youran very depressed.
Like Lu Jian's team, Youran spent all the remaining wealth of the You family and could not buy a piece of land in the new city. However, Youran did not have the backbone and courage of Lu Jian. In the face of the generous treatment given by the Xiao family, Youran was extremely moved. Even if he had to take his guards with his subordinates, he would still stay in the Xiao family. Anyway, he had decided to be a nominal leader, just listen to his own guards and the Xiao family.
The City Lord's Mansion still owes the Xiao family a large amount of Yang Jing. It is naturally very simple for Xiao Lingyu to purchase land. He has enclosed a piece of land that is one-third of the size of the Xiao family compound, and the City Lord's Mansion has not even acquired a piece of Yang Jing.
Long before the invitation from the Xiao family, Youran had already heard about the financial resources of the Xiao family. This time, Youran followed Xiao Lingyu to the city lord's mansion to choose a place, and saw how proud the Xiao family was in the new city, and was even more proud of his choice.
The land in Xiao Lingyu's new circle is right next to the Xiao family compound. Although some places have been occupied, the City Lord's Mansion has made adjustments and the Xiao family is willing to give out a large amount of Yangjing to compensate the others. Of course, those families are willing to hand over their respective land appraisal books. Anyway, the City Lord's Mansion will give them new land, and they can get an additional compensation, so why not do it?
After waiting for more than a hundred years, Lu Jian did not come to find the Xiao family again. Xiao Lingyu and Mi Ling were almost desperate.
Xiao Lingyu did not take Lu Jian's group of monks too seriously. In addition to regret, he focused his main energy on Youran's guards.
First, the land under the plate was built into a yard connected to the Xiao family courtyard. The buildings inside were drawn from the camp of the Liuhuo Mercenary Group of the butler of the God Realm. Xiao Lingyu built a round stone building in the courtyard. The stone building surrounded a large open space, and he arranged the open space into a martial arts field.
Then I invited Sister Gu to come over and bless the forbidden array for the entire yard and stone building. It was quite a bit of time.
Xiao Lingyu didn't care about how to arrange the rest, and let Youran and his guards play freely.
The courtyard where the stone building is located is called the Xiao family courtyard, while Youran's team is called "Xiao Wei".
As the name suggests, Xiao Wei is the guard of the Xiao family. Youran has no objection to this title, but his subordinates are unhappy to accept it. However, the more than 50 monks obey Youran, and Youran has no objection, and they have no objection.
After separating these fifty Xiao Wei, carving a moon gathering array diagram in the stone building and setting up a Yang gathering array, allowing these Xiao Wei to enter a normal state of cultivation, Xiao Lingyu was considered to be idle for a while.
He returned home, accompanied his wife and kids, and lived a very comfortable life.
What he didn't expect was that less than ten years had passed when Youran had just settled in Xiao Wei, and Lu Jian suddenly came to visit him.
He invited Lu Jian to a living room, invited him to sit down, and served tea. Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, don't be fine."
Lu Jian didn't drink tea, his face looked bad, but he said calmly: "I'll come here to bother me this time, I hope Fellow Daoist Xiao will forgive me."
Xiao Lingyu waved his hand disrespectfully and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, you need to be polite. My Xiao family welcomes fellow Taoist to visit at any time."
Lu Jian picked up the teacup, but his hands were trembling, which surprised Xiao Lingyu.
Although the teacup was sent to his mouth three times, Lu Jian still didn't take a sip, and he seemed very hesitant.
"What, Fellow Daoist Lu is in some trouble?" Xiao Lingyu asked.
"This..." Lu Jian was hesitant.
"Haha, last time I met, I saw that fellow Daoist Lu was not as pretentious as a person. Today, it seems that Xiao was wronged." Xiao Lingyu said inspiration.
"It's not that you are indecisive, but that you are hard to say." Lu Jian shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"If you have something to say, maybe I can really help fellow Daoist Lu."
Xiao Lingyu's words seemed very refreshing and generous, but he did not say anything to death, but used the word "may".
"I will not waste fellow Daoist Xiao's time in this way. I am here to borrow a Yang Jing from fellow Daoist Xiao." Lu Jian took a deep breath and explained his words.
"oh."
Xiao Lingyu responded calmly, but his brows frowned.
"I know that fellow Taoist Xiao is not close to me, but I have only met once. I even rejected fellow Taoist Xiao's kind invitation last time. Fellow Daoist Xiao has no reason to believe me and lend me Yang Jing, but now I really need a Yang Jing, so I have a shameless request."
When Lu Jian said this, his decadent expression was not covered by the beard on both cheeks. He felt a bit sad and helpless.
"How many Yang crystals do you want to borrow for Fellow Daoist Lu?" Xiao Lingyu asked with his fingers gently tapping the table.
"Two million Yang Crystals." Lu Jian lowered his head and said.
"Two million Yang crystals are not a small amount. Can I ask fellow Taoists, what do I need to borrow so many Yang crystals to do?" Xiao Lingyu said calmly.
"For life-saving purposes, I have more than 20 brothers surrounded by masters of the Sang family. The Sang family asked for 25,000 yuan of Yang Jing to let them go, but I only had 50 million yuan of Yang Jing. I have also gone to ask some of my former friends, but most of them are not rich. Even some of the wealthy ones are unwilling to borrow a large amount of Yang Jing to me. In desperation, I came to ask for Fellow Daoist Xiao." Lu Jian explained.
"So, if you lend Yang Jing to you, you will not only have to take the risk of your Yang Jing running away, but you may also make grudges with the Sang family. Even if you don't run away, even if you won't make grudges with the Sang family, but when will you have to wait until you can repay such a large amount of Yang Jing?" Xiao Lingyu looked embarrassed.
