Chapter 11: Coming to city, and possible problems?
The rest of the way they talked about various things in the evenings they ate lion meat, and in the morning, they continued their journeys...
Thus, they spent two days on the road.
During that time, they both became visibly closer and went through some small adventures. For example, Tang Yin hunted some small wild animals that came to attack him and served them to vary the meat during those days.
Just at those moments, they both saw the city in the distance, so they quickly approached.
The city was not large, but neither was it small. A city with a population of just over 1 million people, it had a thriving and booming commerce but a relatively weak force compared to other similar cities.
Still, from the outside, Tang Yin found it a welcoming city.
His first city, in this world.
They hurried and quickly entered the city, but as soon as they entered and had walked about 30 meters, a few people appeared walking towards them, and Huang Feifei stopped a little.
Tang Yin noticed this and looked in front of him.
'The young man in front is about 21 years old, Ninth Level of the Spiritual Entry Realm. The followers... They're all at the Spiritual Entry Realm, but they're below him...' Tang Yin thought as he gave each of them a glance to look at the cultivation levels of these people.
As Huang Feifei had said earlier, this seemed to be the lower standard for people in their 20s in this city. At the very least, they should have entered the Spiritual Entry Realm, but...
'They look very inexperienced; their walk is even worse than Miss Huang's...' Tang Yin thought and then looked away from them was just at that moment that the one coming in front spoke.
--"Haha, it's nice to see you again, Feifei, I was worried about you, how did your learning journey go?" Said this person with a friendly smile as he walked towards where Huang Feifei was. From the way they spoke, it seemed they were close.
Huang Feifei looked back at him and nodded with a forced smile.
--"Nice to see you, Young Master Huang, thank you for your concern, but we are not close, so please don't call me as if we were." She replied and then tried to pull Tang Yin to avoid them, but that person got in her way again.
--"Haha, Feifei, you shouldn't be like that. After all, we'll surely be getting married soon, so why be so cold? Come on, I'm just worried about you." He replied, and Huang Feifei looked at him.
--"First of all, I have not agreed to marry you or any member of your family. So please don't bother with that. I ask you to please permit me to come in, I have just arrived and I am tired, I want to rest." She replied coldly.
But this person did not turn away, only let out a small, almost inaudible snort.
Every time he saw Huang Feifei's beauty, he couldn't help but have a lot of fantasies about her, and he wasn't the only one everyone behind him, and 8 out of 10 men in this city were the same.
Huang Feifei's flawless face coupled with that unique beautiful body of hers is so stunning that it makes her the most beautiful woman in the city. Besides, she is tall and long-legged, with a nice figure and beautiful buttocks in the eyes of many men in this city, she is like a goddess.
And for young masters like this one from the Huang Family, she is an easy prey!
Because her family is not rich, and there are only 3 of them besides her.
Her father, mother, and older brother. Of which none of them are cultivators, they are only middle-level merchants, so it is an easy prey to get, at least that's what this Huang thinks.
And little by little, he has been achieving his goal. So far, he already got the approval of Huang Feifei's parents, and that's what he had come for today.
So, he didn't bother with her rejecting him like this, instead, he smiled.
--"Hahaha, Feifei, I was just coming to give you the news. Your parents have agreed for our families to be united in marriage, so soon you and I will be man and wife." He said firmly, surprising Huang Feifei, but before she could say anything, he looked at Tang Yin, and saw that she was holding him by the hand. Seeing this, he frowned feeling upset.
Even more so when he saw that this was a normal person, without even a hint of cultivation.
--"That's why, you'd better stay away from another man. Until we get married, no man can come near you, those are the rules." He said coldly, and Huang Feifei noticed the look he was giving Tang Yin, so, scared that guy would make some move and hurt Tang Yin, she stood in front of the latter.
--"I haven't agreed to marry you, but I'll discuss that later with my parents. For now, I ask you not to cause unnecessary trouble, he's just a distant cousin coming to visit, he has nothing to do with you." She answered firmly, although at the beginning her voice sounded somewhat disconsolate, but she knew how to pull herself together and finish saying what she wanted.
The Young Master in front of her looked at Tang Yin sharply and then let out a snort and turned to leave.
--"Just don't forget to talk it over with your parents." He replied as he left.
He was only here for that and didn't want anything else, so he left quickly taking his followers with him.
After they left, Huang Feifei quickly pulled Tang Yin with her and walked through the streets without looking away from their way.
Tang Yin noticed that she was a little anxious or somewhat disconsolate, she seemed to be thinking a lot of things, so he didn't say anything.
He didn't say anything before either because he couldn't do it at the moment.
To speak as he would have wanted to that person was the same as seeking death.
Although with planning, he could kill that guy if he wanted to, the thing is that right now, he has nothing more than a wooden stake in his hand he couldn't kill such a strong cultivator with that!
Even if he found him asleep, he wouldn't be able to murder him without him noticing because it was just a simple stake used to kill wild animals.
That's why he chose to remain silent.
But, seeing her so heartbroken by what that person had said about them getting married, Tang Yin could only sigh internally.
'Since the System chose you as my target and I was given the first mission because of you, at least let me help you a little.' He thought.
--"I can see that you don't like that person and I could tell your murderous intent when you saw him, that means you are totally at odds with him, but he doesn't seem to know that. If you want, I can help you assassinate him." Tang Yin said without flinching a bit.
He did have ways to assassinate him, though they require preparation. But he could indeed do it.
Huang Feifei was surprised by this and stopped, but after thinking for a while she shook her head with a helpless smile.
--"It's true that I have enmity with him and would like to see him die, but I can't bring you into my problems. Besides, he has a very big backing, I can't do anything against that." She replied somewhat sadly, and Tang Yin looked at her but said nothing.
She then started walking again.
--"When we get home, can you do me a favor, Young Master?" She asked, and Tang Yin nodded.
--"I will tell my parents that we only got 400 pieces of bamboo, but half of them went to you, who cut them, and the other half is for us. So, can you take out only 200 pieces? The others you keep for me." She said, finally leaving a question as she turned to look at him.
Tang Yin smiled and shrugged.
--"Of course, that's fine. I'll do just that." He replied.
'Looks like she's not as dumb as she looks.' Tang Yin thought, noticing her intentions.
After that, they started walking and soon arrived at a nicely decorated section of the city, after a few minutes, they entered a rather beautiful house that was here.
As soon as they entered this place, they saw 2 older people coming out.
--"Dad, Mom." Huang Feifei said, greeting them, and they looked at her smiling and nodded happily, then grabbed her and dragged her inside the house without asking her any questions, in the process they took Tang Yin too, although they didn't know who he was.
Inside the house, they couldn't hold the urge and immediately asked Huang Feifei.
--"Did you get them?" The tone of voice was urgent for some reason, they only wanted to hear 'Yes' coming from her.
