Chapter 160 - Seven Legacy Families (1/2)
”If you manage to get accepted by the Min Family in the upper heavens, they will be able to supply you with even better cultivation resources, and your cultivation will soar at a speed that one cannot even begin to imagine. The Min Family is also a powerful family in the upper heavens, so you will have their backing.”
Hearing Min Li's words, Yuan shook his head and said, ”Although I am humbled that you'd invite someone like me to your family, I don't think I am ready to join any factions for real yet, as I don't want my freedom to be limited.”
Min Li frowned at his words, and she spoke, ”Then why did you join the Dragon Essence Temple? Your actions do not match your words, Disciple Yuan!”
”I only joined because they promised me that they wouldn't restrict my freedom and that I am allowed to leave the sect whenever I want. In other words, I am not required to give the sect my commitment. Of course, that is not to say I don't care about the sect.”
”...”
Min Li turned silent afterward, and she pondered to herself.
'While it's not impossible for him to be free in the future, the Min Family will most likely restrict his movements for a while to ensure that he doesn't run away, especially if they learn about his unfathomable talents.'
Sometime later, Min Li opened her mouth again, ”What do you want?”
”Huh?” Yuan raised his eyebrows in a puzzled manner.
”I'm asking you what it would take for you to join the Min Family! Do you want money? Do you want fame? If you're that kind of person, the Min Family can even provide you with as many beautiful women as you want!” Min Li said with a cold gaze.
”Uh…” Yuan was speechless. Why does Min Li seem so desperate trying to recruit him?
”Does it really matter if I join the Min Family or not? I am just a single individual, and there are plenty of talented individuals out there. It would be fine if you ignored one or two of them, right? Why do you want me to join your family so much?” Yuan decided to ask her.
”You have no idea what it means to be part of one of the Seven Legacy Families! Everything is a competition here! Your performance! Your achievements! Your contribution! Everything! I don't want to stay in the Lower Heavens forever, nor do I plan on staying here! And the only way I can leave this place is with my family's help!”
”However, just because I was born in the family doesn't mean I will naturally get their help! I must earn it! And I am currently nowhere near my goal whilst my siblings are way ahead of me! If I can recruit someone as talented as you into the Min Family, it will definitely help me achieve my goal! So please, join the Min Family! If you want, I will even become your woman! If you join the Min Family, they will definitely assign you someone within the family as your wife to keep you there, and I will volunteer to be your wife! No, I will even fight for that position if you want! If I somehow still lose, I will become your concubine instead!”
Yuan's jaw dropped after Min Li's unexpected outburst and offer. But alas, no matter how much he tried, he simply could not understand Min Li's feelings.
