Immortality Starts With Diligence(Xianxia Litrpg)

52. The Letter From Miss Zhang

The letter was indeed written by Miss Zhang. The contents of the letter were a plea for help to Lin Fei.

It turned out that not long after Lin Fei had left Luo City, the Zhang family felt burdened by the responsibility of providing for two martial artists.

So they sent a message to Chen Yuan, an inner disciple of Autumn Haze Mountain, to revoke their patronage to him. From then on, the Zhang family only offered incense to Lin Fei alone.

However, the Zhang family received some news from other channels of Autumn Haze Mountain.

Chen Yuan seemed to have left the mountain, and he even broke through to the acquired realm! The main purpose of Chen Yuan's trip down the mountain this time was to seek an explanation from the Zhang family.

Normally, patronage was agreed upon by both parties. But if one party were too dominant, then there would be no room for discussion.

Miss Zhang was afraid that Chen Yuan would harm the Zhang family, so she wrote the letter, hoping Lin Fei would go to Luo City.

After all, Lin Fei was now the only patron worshipped by the Zhang family.

After reading the letter, Lin Fei pondered for a moment and said to the butler, "Prepare my horse, I'm gonna go to Luo City."

"Luo City? Young master, has something happened?" The butler was concerned.

Judging from Lin Fei's demeanor, it was definitely not good news.

Lin Fei shook his head slightly and said, "Nothing major, I just need to take care of some things in Luo City. Tell my parents that I'll be gone for a few days."

"Okay, young master, I'll make the arrangements."

The butler didn't ask any more questions and quickly left to prepare.

"Chen Yuan of Autumn Haze Mountain..." Lin Fei's eyes turned cold.

It was related to the "huge" patronage of one hundred thousand taels of silver per year. Lin Fei would not back down.

If the other party wanted to fight, he would fight back.

Now that Lin Fei had merged his two inner powers, he was also an acquired martial artist. Naturally, he was not afraid.

Soon, the butler prepared a fast horse.

Lin Fei rode the horse and quickly left Zhou Mountain Mansion City, heading towards Luo City.

...

"Is this the Zhang Family's mansion? What a magnificent place. It seems that the Zhang Family is a top-tier wealthy merchant in Luo City."

"Junior Brother Chen, you're lucky to have found a wealthy and powerful patron in the Zhang Family."

Liu Hao looked at the huge Zhang mansion in front of him and smiled.

He and Wang Xuan and Chen Yuan had already arrived in Luo City. Now they were standing in front of the gates of the Zhang mansion.

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "When the Zhang Family first found me, they were not as large as they are now."

"In recent years, thanks to my reputation, the Zhang Family's business has grown and expanded in Luo City, like a snowball getting bigger as it rolls. At first, it was a good thing, and I could also receive patronage from the Zhang Family.

But some time ago, the Zhang Family suddenly terminated our patronage relationship. Hmph, they used my name to expand their business. Now they want to abandon me. What kind of world is this where things are so easy?"

If their response this time doesn't satisfy me, they'll regret offending a disciple of the Autumn Haze Mountain Inner Sect!"

Chen Yuan's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness. It was obvious that he was really angry.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have just recently broken through the acquired realm and hurriedly come down from the mountain to "settle accounts" with the Zhang Family.

"All right, Junior Brother Chen. It's just the Zhang Family. Since you're here, they will naturally satisfy you. Let's go in."

So the three of them walked towards the gates of the Zhang mansion.

The Zhang Family's servants immediately stopped them and said, "Wait, who are you?"

"Get lost!"

Chen Yuan casually lifted his hand and directly lifted the Zhang Family's servant guarding the gate. Then he threw him inside the gate.

"Tell the master of the Zhang Family that Chen Yuan of the Autumn Haze Mountain has arrived!"

Chen Yuan's eyes were cold, and he was not polite to these Zhang Family servants at all.

The three of them directly broke into the Zhang Family's hall. They sat down in a grandiose manner. Even the Zhang Family's maidservants had to offer good tea with trepidation.

At this moment, Miss Zhang arrived.

Chen Yuan and Liu Hao looked up and saw Zhang. Both of them raised their eyebrows. What a beautiful woman!

Miss Zhang was gentle and graceful, with a soft and watery temperament. In terms of appearance, she was even more beautiful than Wang Xuan.

"Who are you?" Chen Yuan asked.

"I am currently in charge of the affairs of the Zhang Family. Hero Chen, the decision to terminate your patronage was also made by me. Some time ago, the Zhang Family had some internal turmoil. Patron Chen cannot have been completely unaware of it. May I ask Patron Chen, did you come down from the mountain to the Zhang Family at that time and administer justice?"

Miss Zhang's eyes were sharp as she looked directly at Chen Yuan.

At first, Miss Zhang thought that Chen Yuan was unaware of the affairs of the Zhang family.

However, after gaining control of the Zhang family, Miss Zhang realized that things were not as she had thought.

Miss Zhang's second uncle had even written a letter to Chen Yuan, and even sent money, asking him not to interfere in the affairs of the Zhang family.

Of course, Chen Yuan was happy to oblige. After all, it was an internal conflict within the Zhang family, and it didn't concern him who would ultimately become the head of the family, as long as they continued to pay their patronage to him.

But now, the Zhang family was no longer paying patronage to Chen Yuan. Naturally, he was anxious and even went down the mountain himself.

"Miss Zhang, the previous matter was an internal affair of your Zhang family and had nothing to do with me. After all, even a just judge cannot judge family matters.

Besides, I was in a crucial period of martial arts practice at the time when I was breaking through the acquired realm, so naturally, I had no energy to pay attention to the affairs of the Zhang family."

Chen Yuan's tone was calm.

"Yes, it was an internal affair of the Zhang family and had nothing to do with the young hero Chen. Then, is it not okay for my Zhang family to stop paying patronage to you from now on? Does young master Chen plan to force my Zhang family to continue paying patronage?"

Zhang's tone was also aggressive, making even Chen Yuan unable to suppress his anger for a moment.

"Miss Zhang, I don't want to waste any more words on this. Now, I'll ask you one question, is it true that the Zhang family will no longer pay patronage to me from now on?" Chen Yuan's gaze was sharp like a saber, staring fixedly at Miss Zhang.

The atmosphere in the entire hall became tense all of a sudden.
