Chapter 14: Legacy Obtained

In front of Yun Wan, Lu Yuan did not open his mouth to ask why Yun Wan had a conflict with the Zhang family.

As the eldest daughter of the Yun family, does Yun Wan need any reason to wipe out the Zhang family of tiny Maple Forest Town?

"Miss Yun!"

The heavily wounded Zhang Hong staggered over to Yun Wan's front, fell to his knees in a miserable state, his arms crippled, he could only knock his head against the ground.

Bang!

Bang!

Knocking his head one after another, he pounded his shiny, oily forehead until it was a bloody mess, blood streaming down his face.

"Miss Yun, this unfilial wicked son has offended you; his crime deserves ten thousand deaths!"

"Zhang Mou dares to act against Miss; such an act is a death sentence he cannot escape. Zhang Mou is willing to give all of the Zhang family's properties to Miss and atone with his death, begging Miss not to pursue the Zhang family's guilt further!"

Offending Yun Wan dooms the Zhang family to destruction, but Zhang Hong still has a son abroad; as long as he can save his eldest son's life, the Zhang bloodline can continue—this is the best outcome.

Looking at Zhang Hong before her, Yun Wan's killing intent gradually faded, and she coldly said, "Then I will grant your wish."

Zhang Hong, grateful, kowtowed a few more times, then hurriedly ordered people to liquidate all the Zhang family's assets and hand them over to Yun Wan.

During this time, Fang Xu quietly watched.

Regarding Yun Wan's agreement to Zhang Hong's request, Fang Xu slightly shook his head.

This woman, her strength is considerable, but she obviously lacks experience; who knows the principle that if you don't eradicate the roots when cutting weeds, future troubles will be endless?

The Yun family is strong; they might not even care about the tiny Zhang family, but this is a world where strength reigns supreme. Although the chance for the Zhang family's eldest son to rise is slim, leaving him alive would ultimately be a hidden danger.

If it were him, wiping out the Zhang household would be the first step, then he would find the Zhang family's eldest son and completely slay him.

Apparently fearing that Yun Wan would grow impatient and change her mind, the Zhang people tallied their assets quickly; within half an hour, Zhang Hong brought a weeping woman holding an account book to Yun Wan.

"Miss Yun, all the Zhang family's assets are here; please review them."

Yun Wan glanced at the ledger and directly told Lu Yuan, "Trouble Commander Lu to send people to receive these and transport them back to Huangzhou Prefecture."

Lu Yuan slightly bowed his hands and took the ledger.

Zhang Hong struggled to kneel again, deeply kowtowed to Yun Wan, then suddenly rose and rushed straight into the stone lion statue in front of his mansion!

Boom!

That hard stone lion statue instantly shattered upon impact, and Zhang Hong's head was smashed, brains splattering, killing him instantly.

Seeing this, the onlookers all sighed sadly.

The Zhang family had dominated Maple Forest Town for a century, building their foundation, yet over such a trifling matter they ended up in utter ruin, family destroyed and people dead.

A respectable martial master, his son killed, yet he must smash his own head, offer all his family wealth, and sacrifice his life to beg for forgiveness.

Zhang Hong died, and the onlookers all dispersed.

Only the hired warriors and servants of the Zhang family remained on the scene, trembling and daring not to move.

"Miss Yun, how should we dispose of these people?" Lu Yuan glanced at the Zhang clan and asked with clasped hands.

"Kill those two; the rest, conscript the warriors and disperse the ordinary folk." Yun Wan pointed at Xie Xiaoqi and Liang San in the crowd and said calmly.

Lu Yuan slightly bowed his hands, then drew the saber at his waist, flashed forward, and with a swing of his blade cut down Liang San and Xie Xiaoqi on the spot.

【Your friend Liang San has died; as a friend, you may randomly inherit any one of Liang San's two legacies】

Legacy One: 【White Legacy (Strength Attribute·10 points)】 Inheriting carries no risk, but requires contact with the corpse.

Legacy Two: 【Gray Legacy (Liang San's private savings·two taels of silver)】 Inheriting carries no risk.

【Your friend Xie Xiaoqi has died; as a friend, you may randomly inherit any one of Xie Xiaoqi's three legacies】

Legacy One: 【White Legacy (Vitality Attribute·10 points)】 Inheriting carries no risk, but requires contact with the corpse.

Legacy Two: 【Gray Legacy (Xie Xiaoqi's private savings·five taels of silver)】 Inheriting carries no risk.

Legacy Three: 【White Legacy (Xie Xiaoqi's cottage·one)】 Inheriting carries no risk.

As Xie Xiaoqi and Liang San were slain, a virtual light screen popped up again before Fang Xu.

"Can legacies still be inherited!?" Looking at the two's legacy list, Fang Xu couldn't help but marvel inwardly.

He had thought the system could only let him inherit actual existing things, never expecting there to be a function for inheriting attributes.

Not bad, not bad!

Feeling somewhat excited, he chose to inherit, and the legacies of the two before him began to roll.

Afterward, the light screen froze.

【Congratulations on obtaining Legacy One (Strength Attribute·10 points)】

【Automatically obtained upon contact with Liang San's corpse.】

【Congratulations, host, on obtaining Legacy Two (Xie Xiaoqi's private savings·five taels of silver)】

【Five taels of silver are hidden in Xie Xiaoqi's pillow at home; please retrieve them promptly, host.】

Having gained two more legacies, Fang Xu hadn't even had time to rejoice when Yun Wan's voice reached his ears.

"What is your name?"

Fang Xu blinked slightly, then quickly bowed his hands and said, "Fang Xu pays his respects, Miss."

"Fang Xu..." Yun Wan murmured, then asked, "Are you from this Maple Forest Town?"

Fang Xu nodded.

"In that case, the Zhang family's blood food shop on the street is gifted to you, as payment for guiding me."

Having said that, she turned and left.

Gazing at her back, Fang Xu wore a strange expression—was this the accomplishment of the system's great power?

I merely helped show the way, yet the other party generously gave me the Zhang family's blood food shop.

"Thank you, Miss!"

After bowing to Yun Wan's back and expressing thanks, Fang Xu hurried to Liang San's corpse, assisting Liao Yunfeng in lifting Liang San's body onto the cart.

【Touching Liang San's corpse, gained 10 points of strength attribute】

A faint energy rose from Liang San's body, shot straight into Fang Xu's body, and then there was no further movement; Fang Xu only felt his strength seemed to have increased a little.

"Fang Xiaozi, congratulations."

Liao Yunfeng clapped his hands, looked enviously at Fang Xu, and said: "You got a blood food shop out of nowhere; when you make a fortune later, don't forget to treat the brothers to a drink."

Fang Xu gave a wry smile, shook his head, and said: "Brother Liao, do you think I can hold onto that blood food shop?"

Yun Wan only said she would give me the Zhang family's blood food shop, but she didn't say I was to run the blood food business in Fenglin Town.

The Zhang family has been wiped out; the blood food business in Fenglin Town will soon attract attention, and with his current strength, he absolutely cannot intervene.

Liao Yunfeng gave an embarrassed smile and sighed: "Yeah, without strength, even if others give you an opportunity you can't hold onto it, Fang Xiaozi—sell that shop, get some money, and boost your strength; that's the right way."

Fang Xu nodded; he had been planning to do the same.

He couldn't intervene in the blood food business, but since the shop was promised to him by Yun Wan, he had the right to dispose of it.

"Brother Liao, I'll go check out that blood food shop." After loading several corpses onto a cart, Fang Xu prepared to take over his inheritance.

"Go ahead." Liao Yunfeng directed several registrars to drag the four Zhang family corpses to the town's outskirts burial ground for interment; he himself stayed behind, leading people to seal off the entire Zhang family manor.

Now this manor belongs to the Yun family; every blade of grass and tree inside is Yun family property, and nothing must be disturbed.

After leaving the Zhang family manor, Fang Xu went straight to the blood food shop on the street.

Looking at the large amount of blood food in the shop, Fang Xu was delighted; from now on, this shop bears the surname Fang!
