Chapter 457 Yue Family
The woman in white bowed to the young man in green and said, "Thank you for your help, Young Master Zhu. Lingying is very grateful."

The young man in green shook his head and said, "Let's talk business. If it weren't for Miss Yue's status, I wouldn't have dared to take such a risk. As long as Miss Yue succeeds in this mission and rescues Master Yue San, please don't forget your promise to me!"

Yue Lingying nodded immediately and said, "If I can rescue my father, the support I promised Master Zhu will only increase, not decrease. I'd appreciate Master Zhu's care during this period."

Master Zhu nodded, and after a moment's thought, he said, "I can save that, but this method isn't very reliable after all. We'd better hire some experts locally. With Miss Yue's wealth, this shouldn't be difficult. I think the kid we recruited in Jiulian City is quite good and has made great contributions."

Yue Lingying smiled, nodded and said, "Yang An is indeed a good boy. It's incredible that he has such a solid foundation at his age. If he is properly trained, he will surely achieve something in the future."

"Indeed. This kid is alert and smart. If it weren't for him this time, we would have been ambushed by the villain. Hahaha, I wonder if Miss Yue can give him up?" Master Zhu said half-jokingly.

Yue Lingying shook her head and said, "Mr. Zhu has a rich family and great wealth. Why would he compete with a little girl like me for a ten-year-old child?"

"A large family with a great fortune?" Young Master Zhu shook his head and said, "Compared to ordinary forces, our Zhu family is still quite important, but compared to the Yue family in Nandu City, it pales in comparison. The Yue family occupies seven-tenths of Nandu City. They have produced many heroes throughout the generations, and this generation is even more prosperous. The seven sons of the Yue family, three heroes in one family, are all innate masters. And there is also Old Master Yue, who is still strong in his old age and has already touched the threshold of Grand Master. He is ranked third on the Jiaozhou Heroes List. If he takes that step, with the Yue family's Heavenly King Divine Sword, he will probably immediately defeat the second-place winner."

Yue Lingying shook her head and said, "It's not easy to become a Grandmaster. One step away can make a world of difference. Senior Xiao is also extremely lucky. He was a casual cultivator, but he managed to reach the Grandmaster realm."

Young Master Zhu took over and said, "This is the disadvantage of not having a legacy. Although he is blessed with natural advantages, he doesn't have any unique skills to show off. He is just one level higher than Old Master Yue. If they really fought, the outcome would be a 50-50 chance."

Yue Lingying simply shook her head and said, "My father failed in his attempt to break through the barrier, and his meridians were damaged. He's been in a coma for many days. I just hope the miraculous medicine 'Six-Seven Duanxu Powder' I brought back this time can help my father."

Master Zhu smiled and said, "'Six-Seven Duanxu Powder' is a well-known miraculous medicine in the martial arts world. It uses 6742 kinds of precious medicinal herbs. Not to mention broken meridians, even amputated limbs can be reconnected as long as there is time. It is very precious. Miss Yue is risking everything this time. I admire her. She is truly as brave as a man!"

At the same time, Master Zhu narrowed his eyes and began to think secretly in his mind.

Grandmother Yue of the Yue family had seven sons, and trained three of them to be innate masters. The eldest son had the highest cultivation level and the best martial arts, and was known as the successor of Grandmother Yue's magic sword. He ignored the mundane affairs of the Yue family and focused entirely on martial arts. Now in his seventies, he is already a grandmaster.

The second master has been in the martial arts world for many years, and the reputation of the Yue family is largely due to him. He is also a congenital master.

The Third Master is in charge of the Yue family's business and is known as the God of Wealth. He has only one daughter, Yue Lingying. She is at the peak of the third level of acquired talent and is extremely talented. If she had not been entangled in worldly affairs, she might have become the fourth innate master of this generation in the Yue family.

There is also the Fifth Master, who is not very old, but he broke into the innate realm very early. However, he doesn’t like to show up in public, so there is little news about him.

His Zhu family was a shareholder in Tongsheng Trading Company, a large corporation considered one of the world's ten largest. Unfortunately, the Zhu family was only one shareholder, with five other families managing the business. His family was only considered middling, and he himself was a nobody within the Zhu family, born to a servant girl with no connections. Otherwise, he wouldn't have ended up working as a caravan driver. Honestly, Yue Lingying, who had fallen on hard times, was far beyond his reach, which was why he was willing to take the gamble. Many people add icing on the cake, but few offer timely assistance.

As long as he can help Yue Lingying rescue his father this time, then with the help of the Yue family, Zhu Songci will have a chance to turn things around!

Thinking of this, Zhu Songci smiled even more. He chatted with Yue Lingying for a few words and then stepped away.

Yue Lingying breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no one here. She almost fell to the ground with a long sigh. Fortunately, the little maid beside her helped her up.

She smiled bitterly and said, "Father, are you facing the same situation? Surrounded by wolves, I'm afraid I can't hold on any longer."

The little maid quickly comforted her, "Miss, you've done very well. When we return to Nandu City and rescue the Third Master, you can return to your old life and don't have to marry that young master from the Sun family."

Yue Lingying stood by the table, her eyes filled with an inextricable sorrow. She shook her head and said, "I can't go back. I can't go back. It's just that the Sun family is definitely not a good match. If my father were awake, he would never agree to this marriage. Fourth Uncle is so anxious to marry me off, isn't it just to gain power? I have no intention of competing with him. I just want to save my father. Of course, maybe it's Fourth Uncle, or some other forces I don't know about. My father was 80% to 90% sure of breaking through. Even if he failed, he wouldn't be like this. To have ended up like this, I think there is something strange. I just can't do anything."

Yue Lingying grasped the edge of the table and dug her nails deeply into it. It was obvious that she was not a completely powerless young lady from an aristocratic family. As a family of martial arts, she naturally had to practice martial arts.

At this moment, there was another knock on the door. The little maid was a little impatient at first, but when she turned around and saw that the person opening the door was a handsome young man, she immediately smiled and said.

"Brother Yang, you're here."

Yang An bowed and said, "Miss, I've already gone out to inquire. There are three major local gangs: the Iron Gang, which is mostly composed of blacksmiths, and the Wild Wolf Gang and the Green Bamboo Sect. They are the three major local forces. Each of them has a master of the third level of the acquired realm in charge. I think if you want to hire a few more guards, you should start with them. Otherwise, even if some mediocre people come, it will be useless."

Yue Lingying nodded and then looked at Yang An and said, "Yes, after all, not everyone is like you. And the small earthquake that night helped us break the enemy's arrangement. What happened?"

Yang An frowned and said, "Scholar Ning said that a god had taken action to subdue the demon, which caused a stir."

Yue Lingying subconsciously followed up with a question: "Is there anything else?"
