424: Chapter 333 424: Chapter 333 Lai Jianlin brought back four women, and when they arrived at the Lai Family residence, they initially thought it was just an average second-rate family.
It was only after they reached their family estate that they realized, even the guest rooms were so luxurious.
Those family members all had such high combat strength.
At first, the women looked around curiously, like country girls who had never seen the world before.
There, they grew even more envious of Ding Ling, who had won Lai Jianlin’s favor, and they made up their minds about something!
And they discussed their decision in hushed voices.
“We really made the right choice coming here.
Elder Brother Lai is such a good person, now that we’re here, we don’t want to leave!”
One of the women felt, where else could they cultivate?
Or not cultivate?
Anyway, they were just minor characters in the Immortal Sect.
Being able to work alongside Elder Brother was good enough.
They wouldn’t have to worry about food or clothes, and they might need to do tasks, but as long as they kept their lives, working and cultivating together, they could see a bright future ahead.
“If we could become the companion of one of Elder Brother Lai’s elite family members, even if we don’t go out and make our way in the world, we would still have a good place to end up!”
Another woman spoke up.
The young men who used to work with Lai Jianlin were also handsome and considered the elite of the elite, though they fell short of Lai Jianlin.
But who knew if they wouldn’t become strong in the future?
Especially after getting to know them over the past few days—even Elder Brother Lai Jianlin was so loyal, and his family was also easy to get along with.
Not to mention the Lai Family, the clan they had joined and seen many capable young disciples.
“We all had the same idea.
It would be great if we could stay here in the future.
To save us, I heard Elder Brother Lai even asked that powerful alchemist for help.
I really want to meet that formidable alchemist too.
If possible, to join their Saint Sect—wow, then we don’t have to worry or be afraid.”
The words of this woman made everyone nod in agreement, and the last woman said:
“Following Elder Brother Lai, we won’t have to be like when we followed Bian Shasha with no prospects, always having to flatter and be subservient.”
Her words made the other women nod.
Everyone has a selfish side; that’s just human nature.
For the sake of one’s own interest, even if not betraying companions, one would protect their own strength and life!
When they entered the guest room, they were also entertained by members of the Lai Family Clan, provided with good food and allowed to recover from their journey.
Ding Ling, who already didn’t get along with these women, returned to her former residence after they entered the guest rooms.
It wasn’t that she couldn’t make friends, but they didn’t share the same path, and true friends don’t distinguish between genders.
Besides, she was used to being alone and was deeply concerned about these women who might become her rivals for her Elder Brother’s attention, even though she showed no outward emotion.
Although these women hadn’t harmed her before, they followed Bian Shasha and had always spoken harshly, mocking and bullying her.
Forgiving them was already very generous of her.
Mo Wen, who had been working with them, could only eat dry food on the road, but once back at the Lai residence, he immediately returned to his room and ordered the servants to serve him good wine and dishes.
As long as he had food, he didn’t think about women or anything else.
He felt that a full stomach meant the whole family was full.
With no wealth on him and having to rely on a woman to pay the bills, he was too embarrassed to pursue any women.
He was also used to being alone and, if he had money, he wanted to contribute more and go back to his hometown to see his elderly parents.
The people in his hometown thought he had made it because he could cultivate, but the shameful truth was, although he could cultivate, maybe his abilities were lacking, and his comprehension was slower.
Others could remember the same cultivation techniques and spells quickly, but it took him much more time.
Yet, he was lucky to have met Lai Jianlin.
His combat power had increased significantly, and now that he could eat well and live well, he had no extravagant demands.
Mo Wen ate meat and then drank wine contentedly, feeling that life couldn’t get much better.
If he could enjoy life like this in future days of longevity, he was satisfied.
On the other hand, at the Luo Family, Luo Yaxuan brought back two elder brothers to his clan and settled his master, his master’s wife, his junior sister, and their accompanying servant disciple.
Just as he returned, he received a message from Lai Jianlin.
He arranged for his two elder brothers to settle in first and then met with his family to discuss arrangements, preparing for tomorrow’s journey.
Bi Renchuan and Fan Dingding were led into the guest rooms and treated to good wine and good food.
“Oh, we’ve finally settled down.
From now on, we can run our own stall,” Fan Dingding raised his cup, feeling that this was the best possible outcome for the rest of his days.
“Don’t get too happy yet.
Luo Yaxuan also works for others.
It depends on whether he takes us with him or not,” Bi Renchuan suddenly said, just as blunt as ever, throwing a wet blanket on things.
“He should take us with him!
Anyway, I don’t care anymore.
Wherever he goes, I’ll follow,” Fan Dingding adopted a sulky tone, and at this moment, they were chatting away without any other burdens.
“Hey, Fan Dingding, how come you’re copying my way of talking?”
Within their group of brothers, Bi Renchuan wasn’t actually closest to Fan Dingding or Luo Yaxuan.
It was the same with the others, primarily because Bi Renchuan was outspoken and had teased Luo Yaxuan many times before, but Luo Yaxuan never took it to heart.
