Chapter 2096: Reward
It is well-known that Lord Ying Zhu greatly favors his youngest daughter Ying Xiao.
The Eldest Young Master might be crude, but he possesses some cleverness; he knows that praising Ninth Sister will please Father.
Sure enough, upon hearing the Eldest Young Master’s words, Lord Ying Zhu’s face shows a subtle smile.
"Father, Ninth Sister is probably the most likely among us siblings to reach your level in Dao Skill," the Eldest Young Master continues, while observing Lord Ying Zhu’s expression.
"Alright, let’s not speak of things that are beyond reach," Lord Ying Zhu waves his hand.
Although he instructs the Eldest Young Master to stop speaking, his tone is gentle. The Eldest Young Master beams and returns to his seat obediently.
He knows that in this lifetime, it will be difficult for him to inherit his father’s position as Lord, but even if he cannot become the Lord, he can enjoy a comfortable life if he keeps his father pleased.
"Today is the Ying Family’s familial gathering. Present here, aside from my children, are numerous guests. Though you may not bear the Ying name, as guests of the Ying Family, you are considered half-family. Come, let’s raise a cup. I offer you a toast, in gratitude for your contributions to the Ying Family." Lord Ying Zhu raises his cup slowly.
Everyone present follows suit, including Jing Yan.
As they down a cup of sake, they feel its extraordinary quality. This liquor is undoubtedly something exceptional.
"Feel free and at ease, we have no outsiders here," Lord Ying Zhu adds.
In the Immortal Domain, there are many lords like Ying Zhu. The families of lords often recruit guests. The hosts generally treat their guests well, and the guests are mostly loyal.
