Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

“Do I need to go?” Jian Yiling asked. When she glanced at the set of rules for the martial competition, she noticed that the competition was usually hosted by the Head of the Zhai family and the Matriarch of the Zhai family.

“Master Zhai and Master Sheng said that you can go if you want. However, if you’re busy, you can choose to not attend,” the slightly chubby old man responded.

In theory, as the matriarch of the Zhai family, Jian Yiling was meant to organize these things. However, Master Zhai and Master Sheng spoiled Jian Yiling. Therefore, they did not really want her to do anything that was tiring.

“Then I’ll go,” Jian Yiling said.

“Okay, I will tell everyone. They will definitely be happy when they learn that their matriarch is attending.”

The slightly chubby old man picked the nice things to say.

However, Jian Yiling knew that many members of the Loyalty Alliance did not like her. In fact, some of them would even refuse to listen to her orders.

Jian Yiling spent the entire afternoon reading these papers. She wanted to gain a better understanding of the Loyalty Alliance.

When Zhai Yunsheng returned home in the evening, he noticed that Jian Yiling was looking into matters regarding the Loyalty Alliance.

“Why are you suddenly interested in these matters?” Zhai Yunsheng asked.

Zhai Yunsheng had told his grandpa that he did not want Jian Yiling to be in charge of these matters. Matters of the Loyalty Alliance were often complicated and tedious. Initially, he only wanted Jian Yiling to meet the members within the alliance. He only wanted to give her power.

“To be with you,” Jian Yiling responded.

“Huh?”

“This is my duty.”

“Duty?”

“I… I want to help you… I don’t want you to work too hard,” Jian Yiling answered truthfully.

She knew that Zhai Yunsheng had to deal with these matters. It was not easy on him. Therefore, she wanted to share the burden.

And thus, she said what she thought.

When Zhai Yunsheng heard this, he smiled. Then, he lowered his head and kissed Jian Yiling’s forehead: “I’m not working hard. It’s not hard on me to look after you.”

“I’m easy to look after,” Jian Yiling replied.

“Alright, you’re easy to look after. However, I will be the only one?looking after you.?¹

“Okay?”

Zhai Yunsheng’s mood suddenly became very good.

When they got interrupted this morning, he became rather upset.

In fact, a lot of things did not go smoothly at work.

“Then… For the Martial Competition… Who are we sending?” Jian Yiling asked.

“Just pick someone randomly. Our ancestors set this rule to promote friendly competition. Winning or losing is not important.”

The Loyalty Alliance was different from the Harmony League. The Loyalty Alliance was a business alliance with many members. They were independent from each other. However, the Harmony League utilized a shareholding system. They were essentially a company.

It was difficult to glue together many individuals. Furthermore, although this relationship had been maintained for hundreds of years, other than ‘loyalty’, many things had changed. Friendly competitions helped these individuals and families to remain connected.

Naturally, occasionally, there were ambitious people like Wei Qirui. His actions led to his removal from the alliance.

“There’s a lot of prize money,” Jian Yiling muttered quietly.

“Little moneygrubber,” Zhai Yunsheng laughed. He knew that Jian Yiling was focused on the money again.

“It also cuts the membership fee by half for a year,” Jian Yiling added.

That was a lot of money too.

“Alright, I will go fight them,” Zhai Yunsheng said.

“No no. You’re not allowed to fight anyone,” Jian Yiling hurriedly said. She knew that he was good at fighting. However, it was too dangerous for him to fight. His physical condition did not allow him to do so.

“Ahh, I will pick someone else then,” Zhai Yunsheng said after a pause. He had many strong individuals working for him. They were all personally trained by his uncle.

“Okay.”
