Chapter 27

The Humiliation of CedingLand

However, Jiang Nan immediately suppressed this foolish thought. He was quite aware that his power stemmed from ghost totems, and once he personally admitted his identity as Professor, what awaited him would not be gold coins and beautiful women, but a ceaseless pursuit to kill him!

If he wanted to continue living, under no circumstances could he admit to being the Professor.

Even the matter of Rheim Script could possibly expose him, so he could not use it at all.

By now, West Farms elderly manager had seen that the discussion had concluded and hastily said: Madame Suzanne, what ought to be said has already been said. We will definitely carry out *your orders as you wish. Now. can we be dismissed? Our houses Miss needs rest.

Of course you all can disperse now. How can I possibly delay Younger Sister Weylin from resting?

Suzanne suddenly laid her hand on her chest, Aiyah, wait a moment. I suddenly remembered an extremely important matter. If Miss Weylin could stay behind to make a decision, as well as the rest of you to act as witnesses for me.

Weylin was so heavily injured that she was dizzy, Suzanne, what kind of sinister plan does a lowlife like you have now?

Aiyah, Younger Sister Weylin. Can you not fix that temper of yours? Besides, Im not looking for you to set some sinister plan in motion. Rather, it is something that has to do with receiving Yulianne.

Yulianne

The room suddenly sunk into absolute silence.

Suzanne took her time to stroll towards Weylins side, Younger Sister Weylin, in regards to the matter of receiving Yulianne, I have a small proposal. If *you could please consider it carefully.

According to the information sent from Yanjing, Yulianne will arrive in Sun City in around twenty odd days. Madame Suzanne spread her hand open and began counting, For the sake of receiving Yulianne, in terms of the clothing, food, living, or travelling arrangements. clothing, food, and travelling can be easily taken care of. In fact, based on our wealth, we can take care of these things very well. However, for the living arrangement. Younger Sister Weylin, for the sake of allowing Yulianne to dwell happily in Sun City, Ive prepared to construct a temporary residence for Yulianne within twenty days according to the scale of His Majesty the Emperors temporary imperial palace!

Twenty days?!

Weylin slightly knitted her eyebrows, Are you dreaming?

Whether or not that is so is not your concern. However, Younger Sister Weylin, Yuliannes identity is definitely not ordinary. Therefore, her temporary residence must be built in the best environment located in Sun City, dont you agree?

And as for the location in Sun City that has the best environment, it is naturally Mount Longinus.

Madame Suzannes gaze fixed onto Weylins eyes, However, by coincidence, Mount Longinus is located on your familys territory. Younger Sister Weylin, for the sake of welcoming Yulianne, I politely ask that you temporarily set aside an area one hundred kilometers in circumference that encircles Mount Longinus. and rent it to me!

Rent?!

Weylin ignored her heavy injuries and immediately shot to her feet, What a good idea, leasing! Suzanne, you lowlife! Youre really quite good at speaking! Why dont you just f***ing say it straight out: youve taken a fancy to my familys Mount Longinus, and you wish for me to cede it to you!

Aiyah! Younger Sister Weylin, why do your words sound so unpleasant? Suzanne spoke with a smile: I only wish to rent it, rent it! Younger Sister Weylin, you wouldnt be as petty as to obstinately refuse to just lend the land to me, would you?

Weylin smacked the table and stood up, wishing to say, This woman is just that petty, nor does this woman wish to lend!

But right at this moment, *thunk! *Thunk! Saurons fingers knocked against the table, Miss Weylin, if *you could please carefully consider the proposal of my familys Madame.

Sauron said coolly: The objective of welcoming Yulianne overrules all other matters. If Miss Weylin is unwilling to rent Mount Longinus out, dont tell me. that you wish to impede the receival of Yulianne? Do you want Yulianne to be dissatisfied? Do you want His Majesty the Emperor to blame us? Nailing the severe accusation in, he said, I, as Sun Citys number one expert, do not wish to see you commit such a heavy crime!

If youre not willing to cede your territory, then *Ill just kill you on behalf of the authorities!

The entire room sank into a death-like silence.

Everybody understood that Suzanne Farms wished to take advantage of Weylins heavy injures to swallow up the resources of West Farms.

But what did it matter even if they did understand? Sun Citys Top Ten Ranking had just been recently announced, and Sauron had now dominated first place for ten consecutive years! Who would dare to defy him at this time, or dare to step out on Weylins behalf?!

Father, your daughter is unfilial. She is unable to protect the estate that *you have passed down.

Weylin suddenly kowtowed towards the south, the place where her fathers tomb was located.

The managers of West Farms immediately understood what the Miss was going to do and howled desperately: Miss, we cannot cede the land!

If I dont cede it, then dont tell me that this woman will just stare wide-eyed as you guys are completely slaughtered by Sauron?!

Weylin bit her lip and angrily squeezed out a few words, Suzanne, within three days, Mount Longinus map will definitely be sent to you!

After she said this, Weylin disregarded Jiang Nans support and bore her own injured body as she departed from the conference room. As she left, bright red blood began seeping out of the bandages wrapped around her stomach, staining the red carpet the entire way.

Every representative looked distantly at Weylins receding figure. Several people were filled with indignation at this injustice, while some peoples facial expressions faintly changed. There were even some who stared at Suzanne with strange gazes. with no one aware of what they were thinking.

On the other hand, Suzanne abruptly fell into silence as she waved her hands with limp enthusiasm, Everybody is dismissed. Sauron, you stay.

After everybody had dispersed, Sauron stood at Madame Suzannes back, Madame, are *you not happy?

Suzanne touched a drop of Weylins blood that fell on the ground, then spoke as though she was not looking for an answer, Sauron, what do you think of Weylin, this person? Based on your judgment as Sun Citys number one expert.

In my perspective, Weylin is a youth with astonishing potential.

Saurons expression also grew solemn, Five years ago, the fourteen-year-old Weylin consecutively defeated four great experts in one day, rising into the ranks of Sun Citys Top Ten Ranking. This kind of talent is rarely seen! And in these past five years, although Weylin has been occupied with managing the farm and has neglected her training, I still see a bright future ahead of herat twenty-five years of age, Weylins strength will be enough to give me a headache!

Thats right. On the path of totems, Weylin is young and has potential. Sooner or later there will come a day that she will possess the strongest power in Sun City.

Madame Suzanne nodded, Then. do you know how I regard Weylin? Based on my identity as an aristocrat and the farm lord.

Madames meaning is.

In my perspective, Weylin is only a standard manager. Perhaps her head is capable of managing a farm, but it is still not enough to clash head-on with me. Suzanne abruptly slammed her hand onto the table, But it is only now that I discover, Ive judged Weylin wrongly!

Just now, I humiliated Weylin in front of 103 representatives, pushing her to surrender and cede the land to me. How great of an insult and disgrace this is, and how unwilling she was! However, when you look at Weylins reaction, she unexpectedly bore it! Suzanne spoke eerily: Weylin is only nineteen years old. Nineteen years old, yet she understands what it means to bear patiently, the mindset that *as long as green hills exist, there will always be wood to burn. If she were to be given a few years time, until she is twenty-five years old, where her strength is no longer inferior to yours and her head is capable of challenging me, in Sun City. who will be able to keep Weylin in Check?!

(*TL: as long as theres life, theres hope)

Pah!

Madame Suzanne flicked off the fresh blood from her fingertip, I cannot give Weylin the chance to grow. Weylin. must die!
