"That's what makes it amazing! This colorful orb is actually an alternate dimension. There are rooms of all styles for you to choose from. Just place your hand on it and silently recite the style you want, and it will create a room that style for you. It's an essential item for those who go out to cultivate."
Lin Yaoxie took the colorful ball of light from his hand, holding it in one hand and pulling Hai Linglan's hand with the other, and then silently looked around a room.
A flash of pink light appeared, and the two of them vanished from their spot, while the ball of light flew back to the shelf on its own.
Chapter Fourteen: First Meeting with the City Lord
Hai Linglan blinked his big eyes, making them flutter.
Then he said something that would infuriate Helena.
"So you like it? Ah Lan likes Brother Lin, and Brother Lin likes Ah Lan too. It's okay if we live close by!"
"puff!"
Heller felt as if he had spat out a mouthful of blood.
"What are you two talking about? Why are you so serious?"
A kind-looking middle-aged man's voice came from not far away.
The sound seemed quite far away, but the internal energy was incredibly strong, yet Lin Yaoxie couldn't hear it; only the two of them could.
"Father!" Hai Linglan called out.
Then a burly middle-aged man suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of them.
The middle-aged man was wearing a black and gold robe, and with his burly figure, he looked like a great overlord.
But his features were very gentle, especially when he looked at Hai Linglan.
"I heard we have a distinguished guest at our residence. Alan, won't you take me to meet him?" Haicheng said.
Hearing this, Hai Linglan's ears turned red without her noticing, and she said shyly:
“Father, actually he came to see me. He said he likes A-Lan and went to great lengths to try to get into the city lord’s mansion to see her.”
After she finished speaking, Hai Linglan's face turned as red as an apple.
Haicheng was slightly surprised by his daughter's words, but his gaze remained loving.
He was a strict yet loving father who never stopped his daughter from doing what she wanted to do, but instead silently guided her.
“Oh, really? Father is really interested in him. Why don’t you take Father to meet this young master?” Haicheng said.
Hai Linglan nodded, but Hai Leyun, who was next to him, stopped him.
"No, I can't believe it. That man has an evil aura about him; he doesn't seem like a good person. You absolutely mustn't let the princess stay with him!" Heller said.
It must be said that Heller's intuition was very accurate; everything he predicted came true.
Hai Cheng waved his hand. Whether this person was a donkey or a horse, he'd have to see for himself. Even if he was a villain radiating evil, he wasn't afraid. He, Hai Cheng, even if not a top-tier human expert, was still an outstanding individual, especially since this was within the City Lord's Mansion, which was condensed in his courtyard…
Here, apart from masters who are two streets above him, there is no one who can match him.
Therefore, relying on this, he became very arrogant.
"Lord of the City!" Heller Yun still wanted to dissuade him.
For some reason, he had a hunch that Lin Yaoxie was not a simple person. It wasn't that he didn't trust the city lord, but he felt that this person seemed a bit strange. He had a feeling that once he met the city lord, some things would be beyond saving.
“It’s alright, no one can hurt me here,” Haicheng said.
Lin Yaoxie stood at the corner not far away, his posture truly unbearable to look at; he was even leaning against a tree, looking nothing like a proper young master. 5.4
Haicheng had just turned the corner when he saw this strangely dressed and unruly young man. The thought that his daughter had fallen for such a young man made him suddenly worried, and he frowned.
"Who are you?" Lin Yaoxie looked at the person with an extraordinary aura and became serious again.
Could this man be someone sent by Heller to kill him?
Chapter Fifteen: Head-to-Head
"You're the kid who moved into the manor today?"
Haicheng Road.
His tone wasn't disdainful; it was just a normal conversation between someone in a position of authority and ordinary people. His tone was relatively amiable.
Lin Yaoxie narrowed his eyes and understood almost instantly; he immediately deduced the person's identity.
"The city lord of Haicheng, Haicheng?" Lin Yaoxie asked.
Hai Cheng was somewhat surprised. This kid recognized him at a glance and even dared to call him by his name, which seemed a bit too bold.
This great city was called Sea City, named after the Lord who is now in power.
"Um, which city are you from?" Haicheng asked.
He actually wanted to ask about the young man's identity, since he was being treated so disrespectfully. His identity had to be at least a bit impressive, right?
"No city, no sect, no ancestor, no faction," Lin Yaoxie said lazily, then leaned against the big tree again, not wanting to move an inch.
"A cultivator with no connections? Just an ordinary rogue cultivator?" Haicheng wondered. It didn't make sense. Shouldn't such a person have some respect for him? How could he not feel any awe at all, and it seemed that his appearance only stirred up a small ripple in his heart?
He even felt that Lin Yaoxie looked at him with a kind of creepy, predatory gaze.
"That's right, oh no, I'm not some rogue cultivator. I don't have any magic power right now. I'm the most lowly mortal in the eyes of you cultivators," Lin Yaoxie said.
Haicheng was even more confused now. What did his daughter see in this guy? Could it be that she was attracted to his looks? But he was just average-looking, a pretty boy, not as charismatic as his father.
What should I do? What if my precious daughter insists on being with him?
Haicheng was absolutely overwhelmed.
"Do you know who my daughter is?" Haicheng asked.
He didn't quite agree with the man and thought it would be better to separate the two of them, but he didn't want to start with his daughter, so it would be better to start with Lin Yaoxie.
Lin Yaoxie understood his thoughts almost instantly, raising an eyebrow at the seemingly righteous city lord.
"Don't worry, I'm the perfect match for your daughter, the best match ever. Don't look at me like that. Trust me, I can definitely give your daughter the most comfortable life!" Lin Yaoxie said.
However, the prerequisite is that you have to contribute your skills.
Lin Yaoxie silently added a sentence in his mind.
For some reason, Haicheng suddenly felt that the man in front of him was very charming, as if he was radiating light, and he couldn't help but nod.
780 But what he didn't know was that the dark system assistant on Lin Yaoxie's body was helping Lin Yaoxie, and the system assistant was using this to increase the city lord's trust in him.
Once he accumulates 60% trust, Lin Yaoxie can take advantage of his inattention and use the Star Absorbing Technique to absorb all of his power.
Moreover, the more powerful its host is, the more powerful the system's capabilities become. Yes, it can't wait for its host to grow up quickly, of course, to grow into the worst villain in the world, the biggest antagonist.
Therefore, he is willing to do anything to help his host, even if it violates some rules.
Chapter Sixteen actually agreed.
As long as it can become the most powerful dark system through its host, then no rules can restrain it.
Apart from his host.
However, since he has the means to create a host, he can also destroy one. The moment he can detach himself from the host, he will certainly destroy it.
The Dark System Assistant wasn't actually there to help anyone become a major villain. His sole purpose was his own ambition.
This is the true essence of the Dark System.
"Yes, I felt you were different the moment I saw you, and I also felt you could take good care of my daughter. How about this, we'll arrange an engagement for my daughter tomorrow, and the wedding will be held three days later."
Hai Cheng must have been bewitched, which is why he said such things that even he himself found unbelievable.
However, the system could not control his actions, otherwise it would have directly instructed his host to absorb his power.
He can only control his language.
Every word spoken by a master cultivator like Xiang Haicheng is a golden promise. Once a promise is made, it automatically becomes an oath that cannot be changed, otherwise one will suffer the backlash of the Heavenly Dao.
Hai Linglan was a little surprised and stared shyly at her good father. She didn't expect that he would arrange their marriage so soon after she said that she liked Brother Lin. Her father was so thoughtful.
Haile Yun was petrified on the spot. What the hell was going on? His high-ranking city lord had just given away his daughter like that?
And he heard it all. He heard Lin Yaoxie personally admit to the city lord that he was just an ordinary person who knew nothing, had no family or background, and wasn't even a cultivator. So what made him so special?
Is it really just because of that pretty boy face?
Haile Yun was truly baffled and suddenly felt a growing resentment towards his city lord.
He had secretly loved his family's princess for so many years, protected her for so many years, and won over Haicheng for so many years, so why couldn't Chengdu see his loyalty and hard work?
He had told the city's theme more than once that he really liked the princess. Although he didn't have any intention of having a little princess, he was surprised to see that the mature man had so easily entrusted the princess to a good-for-nothing.
This good-for-nothing is not even worth a finger of his, yet the city lord married his princess to him.
Heller felt extremely resentful.
"No, I didn't mean to say these things."
Hai Cheng suddenly uttered these words, finally breaking free from the temporary control of the Dark System.
Even a master like him could only be controlled by the Dark System Assistant for a short time; if the time was longer, the system would suffer a backlash.
Even so, the city lord still made a decision that he never wanted to make in his life.
“Father, what’s wrong? Although Alan is also a little shocked that you would entrust your daughter to someone like this, he is, after all, someone Alan likes. It’s not good for you to go back on your word like this,” Hai Linglan said.
Haicheng felt extremely guilty. How could he have suddenly said such a thing? He couldn't feel the system controlling him; he just felt his lips slip out and he said those words.
He thought he had said something wrong, never imagining that the Dark System assistant was manipulating him from behind the scenes. After all, he knew nothing about this, so how could he have guessed?
Chapter Seventeen changed his mind again.
“No, Father, you are already a saint. Every word you say and every promise you make now will be regarded as an oath and become part of the rules of heaven and earth. If you want to go back on your word, you will have to suffer certain backlash!” Hai Linglan said.
Although Hai Linglan was spoiled and somewhat willful by her father, she was still very filial and knew that she couldn't be careless in this matter.
Everything his father just said has been made, and the oath must never be broken. If he does, he will surely suffer the tribulation of lightning that descends from the heavens.
Furthermore, the higher the level and the stronger the power of the person enduring the tribulation, the more intense the lightning tribulation they will be.
Hai Linglan didn't want her father to get hurt in any way, and he genuinely loved Lin Yaoxie. Such a promise wouldn't do any harm.
"Ah Lan!"
Haicheng rarely lost her temper with her most beloved youngest daughter, and the shock and anger in his heart were indescribable.
How could he let such a basic mistake slip by and hand his own daughter over like that?
