Chapter 99: Father? Family Head?
Luo Bing did not know what it meant to be a Prodigy of the Human Race, but looking at her father's eyes, she knew it was not simple.
"Father, but he clearly has an F-Grade resource talent, why?"
"Hidden talent."
"This is?"
"I am only a Third-Order God, so I do not know much. However, for Taichu Academy to be so anxious to snatch him up, Yang Fan's hidden talent must be extraordinary."
Luo Hai took a deep breath, his expression suddenly turning serious: "The Family has decided to fully invest in Yang Fan, but I feel there is still a missing link between the Luo Family and Yang Fan."
"Bing'er, I intend to betroth you to Yang Fan. Are you willing?"
"Father, what kind of joke is this? I…" Before Luo Bing could finish her sentence, her consciousness suddenly felt a pressure like the roaring of mountains and seas.
Luo Hai looked at Luo Bing with calm eyes, the aura of a Third-Order God undisguised.
At this moment, Luo Hai was no longer Luo Bing's kind father, but the Family Head of the Luo Family, a Third-Order God who had long held a high position.
"Bing'er, kneel." Luo Hai said coldly.
Under the immense pressure, Luo Bing could no longer hold on and knelt by the table on both knees.
"When you were young, I took you to the City Government to see the world. You ate a piece of Ten-Thousand Fire Spirit Fish and came back to tell me you wanted more. It was the Family that helped you buy it. Do you know that was a B-Grade Spirit Beast?"
"Before the Awakening of the Divine Kingdom, the Family had already helped you identify your Ice Spiritual Root talent and spent a fortune to purchase the Ice God Temple. Do you still remember?"
"Your monthly allowance, the assistance of the Family Actuary, the provision of various rare resources, and the personal guidance of Gods."
"From the moment you were born, you were the apple of the Luo Family's eye, enjoying luxury and being sought after by others."
"Having received so many benefits, now that the Family needs you, you refuse. Do you think this is right?"
Luo Hai's tone was calm, but his voice struck Luo Bing's back like a ten-thousand-pound weight.
"Fa… Father, I will become very strong in the future, I will…"
"You only have B-Grade talent. With the cultivation of the Luo Family, reaching my level in the future is your limit. And now, a massive Opportunity for the Luo Family is right before us. You are not even willing to make this small sacrifice?" Luo Hai continued to press.
"But what about Cousin Luo Rou?"
"It does not matter. The strong naturally possess more rights in choosing their partners. Don't forget, your mother was my 28th wife."
"I understand, Family Head." Luo Bing said slowly.
As her words fell, the pressure on her body from Luo Hai vanished instantly.
Luo Bing lowered her head and slowly stood up.
"After leaving the Virtual World, go directly to the villa in Yang City. Get it done for me tonight."
"Yes, Family Head."
After Luo Bing finished speaking, she disappeared into the virtual space.
Looking at the spot where Luo Bing had just stood, Luo Hai felt a bit dazed: "Little Bing, you are still young. My choice is not just for the Family; it is also for you!"
On the other side, Yang Fan, who had exited the Virtual World, was called out by Luo Chengfeng before he could enter his Divine Kingdom to check his gains.
"Grandfather, what is this?"
Seeing Luo Chengfeng hurriedly pulling him and Luo Rou into the car, Yang Fan was stunned.
What was going on? Why did it look like they were running away?
"We are going to the Luo Family grounds." Luo Chengfeng explained.
"The Virtual World would have sufficed. What is this?"
"The Family Head wants to see you in the real world."
"Ah?" Yang Fan was a bit shocked. One had to know that the Luo Family Head, Luo Hai, was a Third-Order God.
"My good grandson-in-law, no matter what happens in the future, you must take good care of Little Rou. She is carrying your child." Luo Chengfeng, who was driving, couldn't help but urge him.
Hearing this, Luo Rou became nervous: "Grandfather, has your Divine Kingdom been attacked?"
"Go, go, go, you silly girl, are you cursing your grandfather?" Luo Chengfeng rolled his eyes.
"Then why did Grandfather say that, as if you were entrusting an orphan?" Luo Rou placed her hand on her stomach, her little mouth pouting involuntarily.
Luo Chengfeng drove to the Luo Family and then led the two of them into the reception room of the Family Head, Luo Hai.
This was Yang Fan's first time seeing Luo Hai. The other party did not have the slightest airs of a God; his aura was gentle, like a warm spring breeze, making people feel close to him.
"Greetings, Family Head." Yang Fan said politely.
"Come, sit down quickly. You are heading to Taichu City tomorrow, so I was a bit anxious. Don't mind it." Luo Hai explained.
Yang Fan thought to himself that it was as expected.
As expected of the Luo Family, one of the two major families in Yang County, they received the news so quickly.
Since he had been admitted to Taichu Academy, it seemed this Luo Family Head wanted to strengthen their relationship before he left.
Yang Fan was not surprised by this. He had no blood relation to the Luo Family, and as he displayed more and more value, the Luo Family naturally had to invest more.
Yang Fan was equally grateful to the Luo Family; if not for their help, he would never have achieved his current results.
"Little Fan, I can call you that, right!" Luo Hai looked at Yang Fan.
"Of course, you are too kind, Family Head." Yang Fan felt a bit flattered.
"This is fine wine I brought back from Tiannan City. It has great benefits for the Physical Body of a Divine Creature. You can have a taste."
"Thank you." Yang Fan picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
Facing a Third-Order God, Yang Fan did not take precautions. After all, with the other party's strength, if they really wanted to do something to him, he couldn't defend against it anyway, so it was better to accept the benefit openly.
Seeing Yang Fan drink the wine in one gulp, the corner of Luo Hai's mouth curled into a smile as he continued: "Since you have been admitted to Taichu Academy in advance, the Luo Family has decided to increase our investment in you. This is the B-Grade Building, the Pill Tower. It is considered the most core strategic resource in the Luo Family's treasury. When you break through to Demigod in the future, you will understand the value of this building."
"Thank you, Family Head." Looking at the card in his hand, Yang Fan was a bit surprised.
A strategic resource, and the other party just gave it away? Without asking for anything in return?
"Besides that, the Family has also decided to reward you with 10,000 divinity points unconditionally. Consumption in Taichu City is high; consider this living expenses. If you have any needs in the future, you can tell me directly. The funds will be transferred to your Divine Kingdom tonight."
Hearing this, Yang Fan looked up at the other party, his eyes full of disbelief.
Yang Fan suspected he had misheard!
That was 10,000 divinity points. Converted to Faith Points, that was one trillion.
The Luo Family's investment in him was a bit ridiculously large!
Yang Fan swallowed his saliva, "Family Head, I do not know how I should repay you?"
"You are the Genius of my Luo Family, why talk about repayment? Just work hard at Taichu Academy in the future. Once you break through to a High-Order God, it will be enough for the Luo Family to bask in some glory." Luo Hai said with a smile on his face.
Luo Rou, who did not know the situation on the side, was also staring at her Family Head, looking incredulous.
As a direct descendant of the Luo Family, she naturally had heard of the Pill Tower; it was a treasure that even Gods needed.
And 10,000 divinity points—Luo Rou indicated that she had never seen so much money in her life.
"Come, have another drink. I will have the driver take you back later. Get a good rest tonight."
As he spoke, Luo Hai filled Yang Fan's glass again.
