Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 286 Auntie is always there when needed, Xiao Nanmeng is there when not.

Sun Yanwan held a very firm belief in food self-sufficiency and attached great importance to agriculture. When he first came to Black Dragon City, he bought countless seeds along the way. Later, after subjugating a large number of Bo Shi people, he also obtained some of the Bo Shi country's specialty crops.

Although Sun Yanwan did not understand agriculture, he could easily make basic compost and some basic farm tools. In addition, the merchants from Boshi also brought some agricultural technology from Boshi.

Although Black Dragon City is a mountain city and lacks large tracts of farmland, the small plots of farmland in the mountains, along with irrigation, have been quite effective, providing at least 60-70% of Black Dragon City's food needs.

In addition, Sun Yanwan's westward expedition plundered countless resources, which were subsequently invested in various industries.

As a modern man, he deeply abhorred hoarding wealth instead of using it for development. As a result, Black Dragon City's commerce has always been thriving, and the goods transported by the Heavenly Horse Gang from north to south are sufficient to supply the food shortage in Black Dragon City.

However, although Black Dragon City values ​​agriculture, it is still primarily a commercial city.

Besides the Tianma Gang, there were also merchant caravans from various parts of Dalang and Beiyan. They originally intended to go deep into Beiyan or Dalang to purchase goods, but now that Heijiao City could gather and distribute supplies, several large markets spontaneously formed and became very prosperous.

When Wenxi arrived with a large army, it caused some initial alarm among the merchants, but they quickly became active again after the army withdrew.

Not long after Sun Yanwan returned to Black Dragon City, Nanmeng Palace also rushed back.

When Sun Yanwan saw Namco, she almost didn't recognize her own little Namco.

Although Namco's demeanor remained unchanged, she was now accompanied by five innate masters, which immediately highlighted the extraordinary majesty of the eighth young lady of the Namco family.

Two of them were from the Namco family: one was Namco's widowed aunt, and the other was a master trained by the Namco family. The other three were Bo Shiren, who were captured along with the fleet and simply surrendered to Black Dragon City.

Even Sun Yanwan had never had such prestige. The most prestigious time for him was when he was with Shi Si, the second youngest grandmaster in the world.

When Namco saw Sun Yanwan, she was filled with mixed feelings. She had been following Sun for several years and watched him grow from a twelve or thirteen-year-old child into such a tall and imposing man.

Over the years, Namco has been thankful countless times for the courage he took that leap back then!
If it were now, let alone Namco Palace, even if all nine Namco sisters were together, Sun Yanwan wouldn't give them a second glance.

The only people Sun Yanwan can look at now are either young grandmasters in their twenties like Shi Si, or holy maidens of the demonic sect like Yang Diao'er...

Namco even heard that Sun Yanwan had tried to woo the little princess of Northern Yan a few years ago, but now that her standards have probably risen, it is rumored that she is no longer very interested.

When Namco saw Sun Yanwan again, he had only one thought: "Luckily, I acted early back then, otherwise I would have missed my chance."

Sun Yanwan could see Nanmeng Palace and notice the five innate masters beside her, but she didn't notice that there were several sisters beside her own little Nanmeng.

When Sun Yanwan passed by the Nanmeng family without entering, it truly upset them for a while. However, as Nanmeng Palace's position in Black Dragon City solidified and they gained control of a massive fleet, the Nanmeng family still invested a huge amount of resources. The nine Nanmeng sisters all secretly came to Black Dragon City to help Nanmeng Eighth Sister manage the fleet's affairs. The married sisters even brought their husbands along, bringing with them a great deal of their husbands' family resources.

Seeing that Sun Yanwan was only looking at his younger sister, the eldest sister, Nan Mengtang, couldn't help but say, "Nan Mengtang greets Martial Uncle Sun!"

Sun Yanwan then noticed that behind Nanmeng Palace, besides the five innate masters, there were dozens of other people, including the other eight sisters of the Nanmeng family.

Nan Mengtang was Wei Yingxiao's apprentice, so calling him "Shishu" (a respectful term for a senior disciple) was indeed appropriate. However, Sun Yanwan knew that it was inappropriate to discuss seniority in this way at the moment, so she laughed and said, "Elder sister, please call me brother-in-law."

These words made Namco blush, but also felt a sweet warmth in her heart. After all, she had never had a formal title while following Sun Yanwan, and now she could be considered to have been acknowledged by Sun Yanwan.

When Namco came to see Sun Yanwan, Shi Si had already avoided her. Sun Yanwan was so shameless, she wasn't afraid of being poked by her aunt!
Nan Mengtang chuckled and said, "I wouldn't dare call you that. If I did, wouldn't my seven sisters all have to call me brother-in-law?"

Sun Yanwan said casually, "Just call us that."

"I've been busy with many things, but now I'm finally free. In a while, I should ask a senior to propose marriage to the Nanmeng family."

Nanmeng Palace showed a slight smile, and the eight sisters of the Nanmeng family also breathed a sigh of relief. They were really afraid that Sun Yanwan would turn her back on them. After all, Sun Yanwan was now extremely powerful. Although she was only a Xiantian in name, even with a Grandmaster in charge, the Nanmeng family would not dare to offend Sun Yanwan.

Leaving aside the power behind Sun Yanwan, just the fact that he was able to snatch people from the hands of top masters and grandmasters, and to fight in the far west, with countless innate wronged souls under his command, shows that his prestige was real and hard-earned.

While it might not be common knowledge in Da Lang, how could the Nan Meng family not know what "big things" Sun Yanwan had done?
Nan Mengjiu was initially happy, but soon became somewhat unhappy. During this time, she watched her sister act like a big shot, with a very imposing presence. The family had even sent two innate masters over, and there were also three innate masters from the Western Bo Food Kingdom by her side. These people had strange martial arts skills, and their attacks were more ruthless than those of ordinary innate masters from Da Lang.

Sun Yanwan tried to appease the Nan Meng sisters and even hosted a banquet for them, but on the way, she abducted her own little Nan Meng.

They've been sitting at home for a long time, and now they're at the perfect age for being fresh and delicious. He's grown up now, and Shi Si has tacitly agreed, so how could he not eat them?
Namco didn't resist at all and was taken back to his room, where he enjoyed a wonderful night.

The next morning, Namco changed her hairstyle, transforming the girl's drooping bun into a mature woman's updo, giving her a unique and charming look.

When Sun Yanwan brought Nanmeng Palace and appeared before everyone, the Nanmeng sisters couldn't help but chuckle. Nanmeng Palace's widowed aunt sighed, saying that the young lady of the Nanmeng family would never have allowed this to happen.

Before the betrothal was even finalized and the marriage was even completed, she was eaten and her hairstyle was openly changed, clearly revealing her true identity.
But even if this aunt from the Nanmeng family felt it was inappropriate, she knew she couldn't say anything. After all, the head of the Nanmeng family had already instructed them that now that Sun Yanwan had soared to great heights, the Nanmeng family had already placed their bets, so they could only continue to increase their bets and there was no reason for them to withdraw.

Sun Yanwan stayed in Black Dragon City for more than ten days. She had business with her aunt and nothing with Xiao Nanmeng. She was having a very happy time. The only downside was that Sun Lingdie was currently elsewhere, handling the affairs of the Heavenly Horse Gang, and couldn't come back in time.
