Open and Secret Struggles_1 …

Over the past few days, Lu Xianghui had heard that many outstanding senior brothers and sisters from the academy desired to join Aunt Li Yao’s retinue.

However, no one had yet succeeded.

Yet unexpectedly, Aunt Li Yao invited him on her own initiative.

With a thudding heart, Lu Xianghui thoroughly considered his feelings and suppressed his desires then respectfully bowed and said, “Aunt Li Yao, your affection for me is etched in my heart.

However, a follower should provide significant assistance to you to make the recruitment worthwhile.

I fear that my limited knowledge and mediocre bloodline will not be capable enough for such an enormous responsibility.

Only a Sky Pride can truly befit the role of a follower.”

He was aware that if he were to be successful in becoming a follower of Aunt Li Yao, his life’s trajectory would profoundly change.

Moreover, his entire clan would rise along with him, even chickens and dogs would ascend to heaven.

However, Lu Xianghui did not wish to become a burden to Wang Liyao, nor did he want to accept charity without merit.

Wang Liyao gently shook her head and said, “I have been raised by my father since my childhood, thereby learning that Sky Prides are easy to find, but sincerity is hard to come by.

You are diligent, pragmatic, and can stay true to your heart, making you a rare talent.

I am not inviting you to be a follower for convenience but because I really need your assistance.”

In fact, concerning such a critical matter, Wang Liyao had done her homework.

All the information about Lu Xianghui, from the low-ranking Prominent Family of the Langright Guard, the Dragon Spring Lu Family, was on her desk.

As the saying goes, the kind of family raises the kind of children.

Although the Dragon Spring Lu family was weaker, they were a traditional prominent family, ethical, tenacious, and diligent in nature.

The civilians under their jurisdiction were all living peacefully and happily and might as well be considered living in an arcadia.

Lu Xianghui, facing such a sincere invitation, carefully weighed his words and said, “Since Aunt Li Yao has thus entrusted me, I will no longer refuse.

From now on, I will follow my lady’s command, death will not deter me.”

With that said, the binding relationship as a follower was established.

All that is needed is to report to the Academic Palace for registration and documentation.

The academy did not prohibit such practices.

After all, the Sky Prides or Little Sky Prides might gather some followers, a tradition that has existed since ancient times.

Especially the Great Heavenly Prides who would be prominent figures in the future, who wouldn’t have a group of followers?

“Senior Brother Lu, please sit.” Wang Liyao invited him to sit again, her demeanor was much more cordial.

The relationship between the follower and the liege is profoundly interconnected, they share both honor and disgrace, forming a very intimate bond.

“Yes, Miss.” Lu Xianghui sat in a dignified manner, with a solemn expression on his face.

He understood that Miss Li Yao was about to assign him “work”.

“Both of us are disciples of the Academy, therefore, the interests of the Academy should be a priority,” Wang Liyao sipped on her spiritual tea, “However, we are ultimately from prominent families, we cannot neglect our responsibilities to our clans.”

Lu Xianghui nodded in acknowledgement, “The lady is right, the family has made many sacrifices and lived frugally to nurture me, even going so far as to hinder the future prospects of many of my younger brothers and sisters.” His eyes held a guilty look when he spoke about this.

This is the tragedy of many lower-level prominent families.

When resources are limited, they can’t possibly cater to everyone, inevitably there will be sacrifices.

The Langright Guard, where the Dragon Spring Lu Family resides, due to a long history of pioneering ventures, has a strictly structured social hierarchy, with the clans of prominent families suppressing each other, making structural reforms extremely difficult.

To exaggerate slightly, while the Ping’an Wang Family could potentially strive outside their domain, the Dragon Spring Lu Family, being surrounded by mastered territories, they couldn’t even rough it out or go out hunting fierce beasts.

“Family stability is a prerequisite to tackling external factors.” Wang Liyao brought out a jade family medallion, “Our Changning Wang Clan is a major producer of grain seeds, just take this jade medallion to the Changning Wang Clan, and they will make arrangements for you.

Although I can’t promise much, causing your Lu Fa

Family’s income to increase twofold shouldn’t be a problem.”

Double in income?

Lu Xianghui felt like his heartbeat was going to jump out of his chest.

The family was so tight because most of the income was used to cover enormous expenses, and the surplus was not much.

If they could receive an additional twofold income while keeping costs constant, then the Lu family’s life would no longer have to be so meager.

The younger generation of the family would also have the opportunity for better development.

“In addition, our Wang family has a few shares in the Keep Achieving Commercial Firm.

This firm also has branches in Langright Guard, and reliable children from your home may go there to learn things.” Wang Liyao casually assigned, “The remuneration from Keep Achieving Commercial Firm is quite good, and the prospects for development are also promising.”

The Keep Achieving Commercial Firm!

This newly emerging firm has recently become a hot topic in the Academic Palace.

Mainly because of the firm’s generous practices, they have contracted all the Spirit Bird Flying Carriages in the Academic Palace, pioneering a new commercial field.

Many flying carriage drivers from the academy have seen their income skyrocket, and a typically overlooked profession has become hot.

Even Lu Xianghui had started considering whether he should learn to drive a flying carriage early on to secure a good career in the future.

However, he never thought that the popular Keep Achieving Commercial Firm was connected with the Wang family.

Just a word from Miss Li Yao, and he could be arranged to work there.

For a moment, Lu Xianghui was somewhat dazed.

Indeed, the gap between people’s different societal levels was huge.

With just some casual arrangements, Miss Li Yao had managed to change the fate of the Lu family.

“Miss, then, what should I do?” Awash with gratitude, Lu Xianghui had an even stronger desire to repay Wang Liyao.

“Cultivate, strive to reach the Spirit Platform Realm as soon as possible.

Prior to that, improve your bloodline first.” Wang Liyao calmly instructed, “You inherently have Lower Grade A Peak Level ability.

Normally, with a couple of drops of Stone Marrow, or a Grade Four Blood Refining Pill, you can easily reach Middle Grade in the Qi Refinement Realm, which will trigger your bloodline.”
