Chapter 908: Chapter 909: Powerful Strength is the Stabilizing Sea Needle

Yan Xueyi’s heart was truly filled with mixed emotions, and he didn’t know what would be best to say.

At that time, Zeng Yi also learned about her family’s plans, but being just a girl, she wouldn’t have much authority in the family in the future, so she didn’t speak out.

Moreover, after learning that her family had become a vassal to Li Changlin, she felt a small surge of joy.

No matter what, they wouldn’t become enemies with Big Brother Li in the future. Her mood, therefore, had also become more cheerful.

Li Changlin talked with Yan Hongwei and Yan Zehan, outlining his general thoughts to the Yan Family.

Actually, when it came to doing business, the business-oriented Yan Family naturally had more say than Li Changlin.

However, when Li Changlin mentioned that all the jewelry would be sold for free, the idea still left many members of the Yan Family dumbfounded.

Li Changlin knew this idea was too shocking, so of course, he had to carefully explain.

Selling jewelry for free would certainly mean no profits for the Yan Family, but if managed properly, it could quickly establish the Yan Family’s reputation.

However, there would be some necessary methods and techniques involved in its execution.

According to Li Changlin’s plan, during the free purchase activity hosted by Jing Yun Jewelry, the targeted customers would of course have many detailed requirements.

For instance, Jing Yun Jewelry could cooperate with certain industries where customers could only qualify for free jewelry purchases by meeting specific mandatory criteria, or by spending at certain targets that partner with Jing Yun Jewelry.

Li Changlin wouldn’t bother with these detailed requirements. The reason he had Fang Xiaowei come directly to Xiao Sang Village was that the Mo Family had various business operations in the provincial city, and the Yan Family could also cooperate with the Mo Family when the time came.

These matters didn’t need Li Changlin’s attention; he was merely acting as a facilitator.

Both were his vassals, so how they cooperated was not Li Changlin’s concern. His only requirement was that these actions should cause trouble for Tang Family and Xinyuan Jewelry, directly affecting the Tang Family’s business operations, preferably preventing the sale of their jewelry.

To bring down a giant company, the cost Li Changlin had to pay would undoubtedly be substantial.

However, with twelve hundred billion of jade at his disposal, the cards that the Yan Family and Mo Family could play were plentiful.

For instance, selling at low prices, zero-profit, or even loss-leading sales—these were all methods that could cause significant losses for Xinyuan Jewelry.

But Li Changlin’s intentions weren’t just about causing significant losses to the Tang Family; if it were that simple, he wouldn’t have made things so complex.

Training the Yan Family to attack the Tang Family’s business power was just one of Li Changlin’s strategies.

His real aim was to check the development of the other Ancient Martial Families in Nanfu and bring all families under his command.

As for the Chen Family and the Tang Family, he had already sentenced them to death in his mind, marking the end of these two families’ legacies.

Although the Mo Family had received his cultivation, they also needed some practice before truly facing the Chen Family.

Now that the Tang Family foolishly stepped forward, it provided an excellent opportunity for the Mo Family to make their move.

Li Changlin, of course, would not be mercifully soft-hearted. Since the Tang Family wanted to scheme against him, he would not only promote the Yan Family in business but also strengthen the Mo Family’s power.

Thus, the Tang Family was merely a whetstone for Li Changlin.

If Tang Jinshui knew what Li Changlin was truly planning, it was unclear whether he would regret his actions against Li Changlin.

But Li Changlin had no more concerns; since the Tang Family sought their own demise, he would simply fulfill their wish.

Everyone discussed the commercial strategies for a long time, and after a while, Fang Xiaowei led many experts from the Mo Family, rushing over with a truckload of jade.

When Yan Hongwei, Yan Zehan, and other senior members of the Yan Family saw the baskets of jade being unloaded from the truck, everyone was astounded.

Yan Xueyi witnessed this scene and felt like a fool; he had actually once thought about opposing Li Changlin, which was utterly nonsensical!

At that moment, Yan Xueyi truly developed a sense of awe in his heart.

He looked towards Li Changlin’s figure with a gaze filled with complex emotions.

Zeng Yi, supporting her brother, also had a mix of emotions feeling that her distance from Li Changlin was getting further and further.

These were merely minor incidents, which Li Changlin did not take too seriously. However, later on, Yan Zehan unexpectedly took the initiative and requested Li Changlin to take Yan Xueyi and Zeng Yi as disciples, which slightly surprised Li Changlin.

Nevertheless, he did not reject the proposal.

By taking in the two as disciples, his relationship with the Yan Family became even closer.

Although the Yan Family had already accepted him as their leader, such a relationship was not as solid.

In the hierarchy of Heaven and Earth, Parents, and Teachers, having the next generation of the Yan Family’s direct descendants become his disciples meant no possibility of betrayal in the future.

Thus, in the presence of Fang Xiaowei, the Yan Family set up an altar, and there, Li Changlin formally accepted Yan Xueyi and Zeng Yi as disciples, while Zhou Wendong acknowledged his new junior siblings. The Yan Family then hosted a banquet to entertain everyone, further cementing the three parties’ relationship.

Since he had taken on disciples, Li Changlin naturally had to teach them martial arts techniques, so he imparted the first two levels of the Nine Yang Divine Art to Yan Xueyi and the first two levels of the Nine Yin Divine Skill to Zeng Yi.

Thus, the Nine Yin and Nine Yang legacies were left with the Yan Family. Li Changlin had no further demands; he wanted them to memorize the techniques first, and he would make other arrangements later.

The "arrangements" naturally involved the Life Fruit.

To ensure the Yan Family’s unwavering loyalty, he had to bring forth genuine merits.

Only by showing the Yan Family Li Changlin’s true abilities could he instill a truly awe-inspiring sense of reverence.

Although he could already invoke awe within the Yan Family, if a noble family from the Capital City were to intervene, it might not be impossible for the Yan Family to rebel.

Li Changlin understood well that while interests could tightly bind two parties together, those same interests could also cause them to fall apart.

In such times, only eternal power could suppress all challenges.

Great strength was the Stabilizing Sea Needle.

Allowing the Yan Family to perceive their own mystique and inscrutability, under such conditions, would make the Yan Family truly loyal to him.

The subsequent matters naturally did not require Li Changlin’s attention. He let Fang Xiaowei arrange for the family’s business leaders to communicate with the Yan Family on how to use the jade to deal a heavy blow to the Tang Family while ensuring both families gained substantial benefits.
