On this day, Lin Fei moved into Yue Family Peak and beca the new master here.
Previously, the Sect Leader of True Essence Sect, Jin Zongfan, who was afraid of Yue Yunsheng's revenge and secretly fled, suddenly appeared from sowhere. He brought the True Essence Sect elites who had secretly co to Ten Thousand Swords City, and they visited the Yue family to congratulate Lin Fei on his great victory over the Yue family.
Upon hearing the news that the five heads of the Yue family had been annihilated by Lin Fei, the young masters and servants of the Yue family had long escaped without a trace.
As for the two or three hundred cultivators who had previously attacked Lin Fei but were injured by him, they all proclaid their loyalty to Lin Fei and recognized him as their master, under the reality that Lin Fei had replaced the Yue family.
Through this battle, Lin Fei rose as a dazzling figure in Ten Thousand Swords City.
He also secured a solid foothold in Ten Thousand Swords City.
Although Jin Zongfan proposed to Lin Fei to completely eradicate the remaining young masters and mistresses of the Yue family, Lin Fei did not do so.
The five heads of the Yue family were already eliminated, and as for the Yue family's young masters and mistresses, they posed little threat to Lin Fei.
They simply couldn't threaten Lin Fei's safety.
The Yue family had fallen, and Lin Fei had risen as a new family and force in Ten Thousand Swords City, achieving his purpose.
It was unnecessary for Lin Fei to hunt down and kill the Yue family's young masters and mistresses across the city.
Moreover, Lin Fei could guess that they must have sought refuge with so allied families. If he tried to eradicate them, it would inevitably lead to life-and-death battles with those major families.
There's no need for Lin Fei to kill everywhere and make enemies everywhere over a few young masters and mistresses of the Yue family who pose no threat to him.
Of course, if they sought him out themselves, Lin Fei wouldn't be courteous.
Therefore, Lin Fei instructed Jin Zongfan and the cultivators of the True Essence Sect to temporarily not concern themselves with those remnants of the Yue family.
On this day, a group of n in silver attire flew from a cloud-covered and mist-enshrouded majestic golden hall atop the summit surrounding Ten Thousand Swords City.
They were emissaries sent by the City Lord of Ten Thousand Swords City, bringing a long jade plaque asuring two to three ters with two bold golden characters in the center: "Lin Mansion".
There were also more than a hundred thousand gold coins.
The leading emissary told Lin Fei that the jade plaque was a gift from the City Lord, and the two characters "Lin Mansion" were personally inscribed by the City Lord. The emissary conveyed the City Lord's congratulations to Lin Fei for defeating the Yue family and newly becoming one of the ten great families of Ten Thousand Swords City.
The hundred thousand gold coins were a small gift from the City Lord to Lin Fei.
Lin Fei and Jin Zongfan warmly entertained the emissaries and personally escorted them away.
Soon, the plaque on the Yue family's palace gates was replaced with the jade plaque sent by the emissaries from the City Lord, and the Yue family's palace and buildings finally beca Lin Mansion.
Lin Fei only took ten thousand gold coins from the hundred thousand gold coins sent by the City Lord, and the rest were given by Jin Zongfan to reward all the loyal gold guards, ordinary elites, and True Essence Sect cultivators loyal to Lin Fei.
All the cultivators who received the gold coins were jubilant. Lin Fei's generosity made them respect him even more, and they secretly decided to devote themselves wholeheartedly to him.
News of the City Lord gifting Lin Fei a jade plaque and a hundred thousand gold coins quickly spread among all the great families of Ten Thousand Swords City, making those who were watching Lin Fei with greed cautious.
Ten Thousand Swords Academy, the largest cultivation academy in Ten Thousand Swords City.
In a small pavilion shaded by lush greenery, sat four or five young n and won.
Among them were Yue Peng and Yue Yuyao.
These young n and won were the Yue family's young masters and mistresses.
All of them were heavy-hearted, their brows furrowed.
The light in Yue Peng's eyes flickered with both anger and hatred. He clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth, "That bastard Lin Fei killed our parents; one day I will grind him into dust!"
The light in Yue Yuyao's eyes also flickered coldly as she said, "I never imagined that Lin Fei would actually annihilate our Yue family. We were careless this ti, but I swear I will avenge this hatred."
Yue Peng looked at Yue Yuyao and asked, "Big sister, do you have a plan?"
A flash of determined resolve crossed Yue Yuyao's eyes, as if she'd made so decision, before fading away. She shook her head and said, "I don't have a plan yet."
Yue Yuyao was the eldest among the young masters and mistresses of the Yue family, and Yue Peng was the second.
The other girls were younger, around eighteen or nineteen years old.
They were Yue Peng and Yue Yuyao's sisters. They were young and experiencing such a drastic change at ho for the first ti; they did not have Lin Fei's resilience. At the mont, they were secretly wiping away their tears.
"You all must stay strong. Even if our Yue family has fallen, there must be no crying!" Seeing a few younger sisters wiping their tears, Yue Yuyao imdiately scolded them.
Though deeply upset, Yue Yuyao was very angry at their weakness.
Upon hearing their elder sister's reprimands, the few Yue family's young mistresses no longer dared to wipe their tears.
Yue Yuyao looked at Yue Peng and said, "I've already spoken to Huang Shutong; for now, you will all hide in the Huang family."
Yue Peng asked with so puzzlent, "You're not coming with us to hide at the Huang family?"
The cold glint returned to Yue Yuyao's eyes as she said, "No, I have things to do. Wait for my good news."
After speaking, Yue Yuyao stood up from the pavilion bench, her beautiful figure departing as she left the pavilion.
Yue Peng frowned, uncertain of what she intended to do.
Yet, he knew his sister was renowned for her beauty in Ten Thousand Swords Academy, exceptionally smart—always among the top achievers at the academy, a girl with her own aura.
Moreover, every ti she did sothing, it brought honor and good na to the Yue family, so seeing her leave, Yue Peng believed she had sothing significant to do.
And she would never disappoint the Yue family, even if it no longer existed.
Not long after, footsteps sounded, and young master Huang Shutong of the Huang family appeared with several boys from Ten Thousand Swords Academy at the pavilion.
"Brother Yue Peng, I've heard the news about your family. I'm deeply sorry for your loss!" Huang Shutong said in painful mourning as he walked into the pavilion.
The other boys also offered words of comfort to Yue Peng.
Although the Yue family had fallen, Yue Peng was a renowned Saint Heir at Ten Thousand Swords Academy; hence, the boys accompanying Huang Shutong consoled Yue Peng.
Yue Peng naturally expressed gratitude and swore revenge for his deceased family elders.
After so conversation, Huang Shutong asked Yue Peng, "Brother Yue Peng, why isn't your sister Yu Yao here?"
Yue Peng replied, "My sister said she had sothing to do and just left."
"Sothing to do? What is it exactly?"
"I don't know, but I trust her word that if she says she has sothing to do, it must be sothing very important."
"Song Soldiers, Li Hai, please escort Brother Yue Peng and the young mistresses to my residence first; I'll go look for Yu Yao." After instructing a few boys, Huang Shutong hurried away from the pavilion to find Yue Yuyao.
