Zi Yang was going over information about the city and sighed in despair, this was too tragic!

First of all, the Zi Clan was in a city and one of the 3 Big Clans. Not only that but the weakest one.

Old Yang tried his best to make the Zi Clan the Tyrant of the city but his efforts all went down the drain when he was crippled. Thankfully for Old Yang, he was brothers with the Huo Clan Master in the city.

Very good brothers in fact!

ZI Yang had arranged for Zi Tian’s marriage to his brother, Huo Gang’s, daughter, Huo Mei.

Zi Yang scratched his chin and realized that the engagement was in a few days. He gawked and laughed at himself, how could Little Tian want to get married to that little brat of a girl.

Huo Mei was actually the little Overlord of Purple Flower city.

She was unruly, arrogant, and caused trouble everywhere she went.

Despite that, however, Zi Yang liked her a lot! Her trouble making skills weren’t out of malice, she was just having fun.

Though Purple Flower city wasn’t very large, the amount of trouble the little girl got in was immense! One time, she accidentally burned down an entire restaurant, trying to cook for her father’s birthday!

How does that even happen?

Anyway!

Zi Yang had a lot of work to do and not a lot of time to do it. Not only did he have to prepare the engagement, but he had to try and calm his own clansmen.

Olg Yang being a cripple didn’t sit right with a lot of the Zi Clansmen and they would spread rumors about him every chance they got, Zi Yang even heard one maid hoping he would die soon!

What kind of maids are these?!

Worst of all, Zi Yang didn’t do anything to her!

Not because he didn’t want to, but because he couldn’t!

His patriarch position was in such a precarious spot that he had almost no confidants! As for other women… What other women? First of all, Old Yang couldn’t even protect his lover. Secondly, who would want a cripple? Finally, Old Yang and Zi Yang were 1 woman men!

Yao Mu or nothing!

The only reason why Zi Yang was still Patriarch was because of 2 reasons. One of them was that Huo Gang was protective and the other was because Zi Yang had saved a young woman once when he was traveling to secure an ore mine.

The young woman turned out to be a core disciple of the Titan Sect!

For reference, The Titan Sect was the strongest Sect in the Tang Dynasty!

The young woman never said her name, only left saying “I owe you a favor.” She gave him a token and said that if he crushed it she would come and help him once.

Zi Yang sneered at the token and disregarded it completely after seeing the events in Old Yang’s memories. That woman was just a Nascent Soul Cultivator, why was she being so high and mighty?

Old Yang used to be stronger than anyone on this plane by hundreds of times.

He saved the girl merely on a whim, she was even seriously injured and if he didn’t save her, she would’ve died. Suddenly, she says she’ll do him one favor and they’ll be even…

Old Yang even used a high grade alchemy pill!

Zi Yang rubbed his eyes and sighed to himself, at any rate, she was useful for keeping the puppies away from his Patriarch position.

Clink chimed in [By the way, Zi Yang.]

Zi Yang grunted in response and Clink continued [This Clan is really awful! Even the other surrounding clans are terrible! You have to do a lot of work if you want to even start and become a proper clan! You can’t even be considered one right now!]

Zi Yang sighed and said “What are you saying?”

Clink replied [Very simple! Just kill them all and start over with fresh blood!]

Zi Yang quipped “They don’t have the Zi bloodline, but neither would new people.”

Clink replied simply [I have a way to fix that, just figure out what you want to do first. By the way, you’re lucky today. It’s the start of the month, you get a free draw.]

Zi Yang asked, “Free Draw?”

Clink replied [Gacha. Or as the Grand Master calls it, Plot convenience!]

Zi Yang nodded understandingly and said “Start the draw!”

A giant wheel appeared and started spinning and slowly stopped.

Zi Yang looked at it and said “Eidetic/Photographic Memory?”

Clink said [Congratulations!]

Zi Yang suddenly felt an extremely cooling feeling in his head, he let out a satisfied breath and instantly felt like everything was much clearer. He returned to the files and information, going over them all and grinning like a madman as time passed.

A maid came to the door and was spooked by the lunatic laugh that she heard, she shook and shouted “Patriarch, Young Miss Huo Mei is here to see you!” before running away in fear.
