them." Xiaoyao waved his hand and smiled mysteriously, of course, the other party couldn't understand him."Just arrange the dishes Will that work""Anything in this world has medicinal properties and c...Chapter 456 A Snow-White Figure (Part 1)

Xiaoyao looked at the Lo Yunyi in front of him and felt that this man was also a unique figure, with great capabilities. If he were truly his son, there would likely be brothers and sisters all over the world.

"Father, you're talking about your history as a playboy again. Aren't you afraid Mother will hear" At this moment, a beautiful woman walked in. She was tall and fair-skinned with a mature air about her; she appeared to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old, exuding a strong aura.

This aura didn’t come from martial arts but rather that of a powerful person. This woman must have achieved remarkable success in some field.

"Oh, it's Lingyu. Have you finished the guild’s affairs" Lo Yunyi said with a smile.

"It's almost done, but coming back now is fine too. I forgot something at home. By the way, who’s this Could he be my long-lost brother" Lo Lingyu looked at Xiaoyao and easily thought of this answer; she had experienced it four times already.

"That's right, that's right. This is your younger brother, Xiaoyao. He’s twenty-one years old and ranks as the fourth." Lo Yunyi said with a forced smile. The past was too painful to recall.

"For now, he does. I wonder if someone else will come later" Lo Lingyu smiled. "Brother Xiaoyao, call me big sister from now on. Currently, I'm the eldest and we're one family now."

Lo Lingyu extended her slender hand, its fair skin giving an impression of softness that usually made people reach out to grasp it.

Lo Lingyu felt she could extend her hand because he was her brother. She didn’t need proof for this; their father bore a strong resemblance to him. Even if she couldn't confirm his identity, with her father’s history of womanizing, there was no reason to doubt it.

Generally speaking, Lo Lingyu wouldn’t let others touch her; she didn’t have that habit. Perhaps she felt happy at finally having a male member in the family.

However, what surprised her was that he didn't seem inclined to take her hand either.

"Sorry, but I’m not your brother. You can call me Lingyu." Xiaoyao shook his head and said.

" So you’re still angry at Father He is indeed despicable, but he’s also our father. Never mind, let’s talk about it when you’ve cooled down." Lo Lingyu smiled and didn’t find the situation strange; she retracted her hand and then greeted Xiaoyao before entering.

"I’ll be heading back to my room now!" After this, Xiaoyao went to the small courtyard he had chosen and started organizing things inside. Although Lo Yunyi had called servants to do it for him, Xiaoyao refused.

Xiaoyao didn’t like being waited on by others; it made him feel uncomfortable. Besides, maintaining a private space was best kept that way. That was the reason he didn't want servants attending to him.

As Xiaoyao started organizing things, he also sorted out his thoughts...

The situation had developed beyond what he expected before this. He never thought he would resemble Lo Yunyi instead of Lo Wentian. This Lo Yunyi was a playboy, and there were many women in the outside world who believed him to be their lover. It was unfortunate that they misunderstood him, but it could also be used to his advantage; he could use the situation to get acquainted with the Lo family and learn about Lo Wentian’s current status. If possible, he would approach Lo Wentian directly.

Now that he had assumed the identity of a late-generation relative of Lo Wentian's, it was very suitable for concealment; this wouldn’t attract attention.

If Lo Wentian enjoyed wine, wouldn't making good wine and creating opportunities to drink with him be an excellent way to get close

As for Yun Qingyi, he still needed to investigate further. But if there was nothing wrong with Lo Wentian, then finding Yun Qingyi would be unnecessary; the outcome would be the same anyway.

This is how it’s going to happen: find an opportunity to approach Lo Wentian!

For now, he needed to adapt to this Lo family...

After a while of cultivation, dinner time arrived. Xiaoyao went out for his meal; two girls appeared at the table, one named Jin Suo and the other called Needles (Zhen’er). One was slightly older than him, and the other younger.

The elder one was Jin Suo, ranking as third. She was twenty-three years old and managed a pawnshop in the family's business. The younger girl was Zhen'er, fourth if you didn’t count Xiaoyao; counting Xiaoyao, she would be fifth. This year she turned twenty-one, about half a year younger than Xiaoyao. She worked at a pharmacy as a clerk and managed the shop’s affairs.

They were like their eldest sister in that they had no talent for martial arts, but in their respective fields, their achievements were commendable. Under Lo Family Third Master’s training and protection, they could stand on their own feet.

Of course, though they lacked a high aptitude for martial arts, they still cultivated, none of them weaklings. The weakest was at the early King stage, while it seemed like the eldest had already reached late King stage; in ordinary families, this would be considered genius-level progress, but in Lo Family, this wasn't enough.

At twenty-five years old and still in the late King stage, under normal progression, one might not even reach mid Emperor level by forty. A whole life spent at Emperor level was to be expected if there were no obstacles.

In Lo Family, being an Emperor rank was merely middle-tier combat strength and thus wouldn’t receive much attention. So, the three of them chose other occupations.

At the same time, although Luo Family doesn't value those like them too much, they are still an important part of the middle-tier combat strength. Therefore, the cultivation resources they can obtain are also quite abundant. As long as they continue to cultivate, there will be a steady supply of resources available to them, unless they give up on themselves.

The Luo Family distributes resources based on each family member's level of power. Every month, there is a fixed amount of medicinal pills that can be claimed. This applies to ordinary people, while those who specifically focus on cultivation receive even more. If someone has a high talent for cultivation, they will receive even more resources.

No one is exempt from this rule, not even the family head, who cannot take extra resources. Meanwhile, even the lowest-tier individuals have the right to obtain resources; no one can be shorted on medicinal pills.

It's due to such cultivation systems that the combat strength of the Luo Family continues to grow stronger and surpasses some powerful families. Currently speaking, Flowstone Country is actually insufficient for the development needs of the Luo Family. Of course, this is only apparent.

In secret, the Luo Family has many unpublicized industries that provide resource supplements for their growth and development.

These matters have no immediate relation to Free-and-Easy yet, as he doesn't wish to delve into them. He's merely puzzled by this third uncle of the Luo Family, who seems like a scoundrel, but has daughters who are all ravishing beauties—rarely seen fine ladies. Their different personalities also make everyone feel comfortable and at ease.

"Call me Free-and-Easy; don't call me brother or younger brother. I'm really not your sibling." Free-and-Easy reminded them once again.

"We understand, we know!" The newly acquainted sisters smiled as they said this.

Seeing how amiable they were together made him feel relieved and happy; he wanted everyone in the family to dine like this from now on.

The Third Lady, who had been smiling beside the third uncle, suddenly became angry. "Get away! I've endured your nonsense for too long—tell me how many kids you have outside."

Free-and-Easy saw this and found it strange that none of the other three women were perturbed by the situation.

"What's there to say Mother always goes berserk when such things happen; she just vents her frustrations. Father owes her too much, yet she remains virtuous as ever. This only happens occasionally—didn't scare you, did it" Luo Lingyu said with a smile.

Gold Lock and Needle nodded firmly in agreement: "Yes, yes, mother will return to being gentle tomorrow."

Indeed, someone like the third uncle would be castrated if confronted by the older sister. This was already lenient treatment.

"By the way, where's Lingjiu" asked the eldest, referring to their second sister.

“She should still be at the brewery or passed out there somewhere; I'll go check later,” Gold Lock said.

Before anyone could respond, a figure stumbled in and belched with alcohol fumes. Clearly, she had drunk too much and was slightly inebriated.

Free-and-Easy looked at her and noticed that Lingjiu was also a beauty, somewhat cute and alluring, very appealing to the eye.

Huh All four sisters are beauties of high caliber. Even their looks seem similar to Princess Zhu Yue—meaning they resemble Luo Yunyi quite closely.

Free-and-Easy shares similarities with both Princess Zhu Yue and Luo Yunyi, making this a rather easy conclusion.

Holding such four princess-like daughters, it's no wonder Luo Yunyi is blessed. Free-and-Easy even wanted to vomit at him: Are these girls really your biological children

Of course, there’s no question about that; this was simply a bitter remark in Free-and-Easy’s heart.

"Hey, what's an attractive young man doing here Whose lover is he Is he yours, big sister Finally someone for you—though it does seem like old men fancying younger women." Lingjiu asked, drunk and slurring her words.

“Spit! Your mouth will be the death of you one day!” The eldest grabbed Lingjiu by the arm, smacking her face a few times to sober her up.

"Why are you hitting me Are you embarrassed"

"This is our brother, little fourth, Free-and-Easy!" Luo Lingyu said and instructed Needle to give Lingjiu a sobriety pill and prick her with acupuncture.

“So Dad gave us another brother again. Great job, Dad!” Lingjiu commented towards the third uncle who felt like he was suffering in silence as his wife’s temper flared up even more.

Lingjiu, I’ll show you tomorrow! The Third Uncle could only mutter this to himself. (To Be Continued)on techniques to combine their strengths. Of course, all of them were women.With so few servants around, it was natural that she should take care of things herself. Furthermore, as a guest's companion...
