Chapter 15: Picked A Shen Lang Back Home

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

This Xu Qianqian sure felt good about herself!

“I can abandon and trample you, but you still have to be infatuated with me, as always. When you, Shen Lang, are of no use to me, I’ll throw you out. When you are of use, you shall come into my home and be a slave for me.”

Shen Lang didn’t say anything. He turned around and walked away from her.

Xu Qianqian said, “Shen Lang, even if you know the art of dyeing colors, it won’t change anything. You’re still the same person as you were in the past. Please don’t think that you’re competent just because you’ve won against our family’s dye artist! We have dozens of them who don’t have a name for themselves.”

This was the truth. These dye artists were merely lowly servants. Skills are considered primary productive forces and aren’t uncommon in this world.

Thus, even if Shen Lang knew how to make dyes, he was still a meek villager in Xu Qianqian’s eyes. Even if he was an extremely handsome one, he was still a lowly person.

“You can’t read and don’t know martial arts. You don’t know anything. You won’t be able to find food to fill your stomach other than entering my family’s dye room,” Xu Qianqian said, “and don’t forget, you still owe Tian Heng 1000 gold coins.”

Lin Mo didn’t intend to buy Shen Lang’s new dye formula while the Xu family plans on seizing it by force; naturally, those 1000 gold coins were useless.

At this moment, Tian Thirteen appeared before Shen Lang like a spirit and said, “Still the same sentence, if I do not receive 1000 gold coins before nighttime today, the Black Clothes Gang will deliver our promise to kill your family.”

Xu Qianqian said gently, “Shen Lang, you already have no other path to take; it’s less than a day left! Where will you go to earn this 1000 gold coins? The only way you could live is to rely on the help of my family and offer the formulas for the two dyes unconditionally. This way, I can make Tian Heng waive off this debt of yours.”

Tian Thirteen added, “Dawn is breaking soon. We will be at your house to collect the money tonight. You do not have much time left. There are less than fourteen hours left.”

Xu Qianqian said, “Shen Lang, it couldn’t be that you were feeling a little hopeful with Wang Lian? He definitely won’t be coming to save you again. Plus, he wasn’t trying to help you today. He merely wanted to take the Xu family down because of the grudge he has with my fiancé Zhang Pu. He can’t be bothered about your survival.”

Xu Qianqian was right on this.

Tian Thirteen said, “Don’t worry, Shen Lang, the Black Clothes Gang will definitely arrest your entire family openly in the name of a criminal charge. Then halfway, we will find an excuse to make you all vanish from the surface of the earth. Your family is non-native, just like floating duckweeds.”

Xu Qianqian said, “Before nightfall, if the Xu family doesn’t see the new formulas for the purple and rainbow dyes, I really do not dare to promise what will happen… The Black Clothes Gang have always been ruthless in the way they carry things out. Shen Lang, you’re not smart, but you should be a little more clever in handling this matter.”

Then Xu Qianqian boarded the carriage and left.

Tian Thirteen turned around and said, “We will go to your house to collect the money before the sun sets.”

Then he placed the knife from his waist onto his shoulder and strolled off.

He didn’t need to follow Shen Lang anymore. Since Shen Lang was exceptionally filial, he only needed to keep an eye on his family, and Shen Lang wouldn’t be running anywhere.

In this entire process, Shen Lang didn’t say a single word, merely watching this pair perform silently.

After traveling several meters, Xu Qianqian lifted the curtains of her carriage and looked at Shen Lang, who stood alone in the middle of the streets. She suddenly snorted.

“It’s really a crime to be weak. He really looks like a dog.” She continued, “Shen Lang, it’s a great honor for you to be able to enter my house as a servant with your status. Otherwise, someone as helpless as you can only starve to death.”

Xu Qianqian only said these inner thoughts of hers when no one was around. Otherwise, it would really be too damaging to her image-she would appear as a mean person.

…

Shen Lang stood in the center of the street.

Right now, earning money ultimately had no meaning to him anymore.

No matter how much he earned, without the power and influence to protect him, it would only bring disaster. This was a world where the strong fed on the weak.

The Xu family, Lin family, and Tian Heng’s Black Clothes Gang…

Any of these three forces were giants to Shen Lang.

Tian Heng and the Xu family would definitely make their move tonight. They would use his family’s life to force Shen Lang to hand over the dye formulas.

Even if Shen Lang handed it over, unless he stayed in the Xu family as a servant for the rest of his life, slaving away to invent new formulas ceaselessly, his family would not have any peace.

He had to solve this problem once and for all.

He had initially planned to wait for his plan of living off others for eternity to mature a little and build it up a little first.

It looked like it must be brought forward now.

Shen Lang rehearsed this plan in his head repeatedly.

Right now, the sky was starting to brighten.

It was almost time. Shen Lang had to seize the moment and head out to the most influential land a hundred li away.

The Palace of the Earl of Xuanwu!

However, at this moment, an intense clopping sound of hooves rang out from behind him, ripping the silence before dawn. The ground was trembling.

Shen Lang turned around and saw a troop of soldiers.

This was an elite troop with more than a hundred soldiers. Every single one of them was donned in armor, holding a massive sword in their hands and carrying an enormous shield on their backs.

Shen Lang could practically see how much money was used in creating this troop that had a unique look. A force like this was an absolute trump card, be it in ancient China or western history.

Who could have such an elite force and possess such grandeur?

Shen Lang quickly saw the flag of the troops and the emblem on their shields.

These were soldiers from the Palace of the Earl of Xuanwu!

The Jin Family of the Palace of the Earl of Xuanwu was a real royal family of a hundred years.

Three hundred years ago, the Jin Family had protected and guarded Xuanwu City. Xuanwu City got its name from the Jin Family clan. Thus, the Xuanwu Earl is the master of Xuanwu City to a certain extent.

The leader of this troop was donned in silver armor and had a lean body. Due to the leader’s helmet, only the eyes could be seen.

However, this pair of eyes were icy cold.

This was a woman with stunning eyes.

Although her face hadn’t been seen, this woman’s identity was unmistakable.

She… was the legendary goddess, the princess of Xuanwu City, the dream lover of countless youths, and the pillar of the Palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, Jin Mulan.

Shen Lang was a little stunned. He had initially intended to go to the Earl’s Palace, but he had never expected to meet them right here.

“Move! Move!”

“Move aside! Move aside!”

“Clear the street! Clear the street!”

The two flag bearers at the front of the troops hollered loudly, trying to chase away Shen Lang who stood in the center of the streets.

With Shen Lang’s frail and weak body, if he was hit by this troop, all the bones in his body were bound to be broken, and he would die tragically!

He quickly moved to the side of the street, moving out of the path of this troop of soldiers.

However, just as he was about to step off the street, he suddenly and intentionally stumbled, slowing his steps a few notches.

After all, he added a small plan at the last minute.

“Boom…”

A soldier on the edge of this troop brushed against Shen Lang, and the considerable impact sent Shen Lang flying out!

He… This was Pengci1.

“Wifey, you had knocked into me once three years ago! Why don’t you knock into me again and bring me home!” Shen Lang thought.

Then, his body flew a few meters before landing on the ground.

He was not professional at Pengci, but his force, angle, and timing was correctly handled.

Since his injuries were not severe after he landed on the ground, he even forcefully bit into his gums so that blood would flow out from the corner of his mouth. He definitely must act pitiful at this moment.

Jin Mulan’s eyes widened as she lifted her hand. Instantly, the soldiers quickly came to a halt.

The two ahead immediately got off their horses to check on Shen Lang’s injuries. However, who would have thought that Jin Mulan was even faster? She leaped off her horse and shot several meters across the air.

Shen Lang was stunned. “Amazing!”

Jin Mulan squatted down before Shen Lang, removed her gauntlets, and placed her fingers at Shen Lang’s nose to check for his breathing.

“This young man is really handsome! He seems a little familiar, too!” That was Jin Mulan’s first thought.

Shen Lang’s injuries were not severe; thus, his breathing was naturally stable.

However, he was a doctor! Thus, he quickly made it seem as if he was dying with weak breaths. With blood oozing out of the corner of his mouth, it really looked severe. This gave Jin Mulan a shock.

The people of the entire Xuanwu City were their people. Her father had taught her to love the people of the nation from a young age.

Even if a commoner died from being run over and deserved it for blocking the path of a troop, Jin Mulan absolutely wouldn’t allow an innocent person to die before her.

“General, I’ll bring him to the nearest clinic to be treated,” her chamberlain said.

“Please don’t!!!” Shen Lang prayed mentally. “Wifey! Please bring me home!”

Jin Mulan shook her head. “No. I’ll still worry if it’s a regular clinic. The doctors at the Earl’s palace are more skilled. Bring him back to the palace to be treated. We absolutely must not let an innocent commoner die under our hooves.”

“Wow! She had such a lovely voice, too, so bright and refreshing!”

“Yes!” Her chamberlain said. She then gently carried Shen Lang and got onto her horse.

Jin Mulan’s chamberlain was also a girl, but she was still more robust than the average guy. Shen Lang looked a little embarrassed for being carried like a princess, but he still had to pretend to be unconscious.

“Return to the palace!” Jin Mulan ordered as she led the troops back to the Palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.

The injured and beautiful pretty boy, Shen Lang, was picked back home by the princess of Xuanwu City, Jin Mulan.

“Shen Lang, the moment that decides your fate is coming.” Shen Lang repeatedly encouraged himself. “Whether you can save your entire family and screw the Xu family and Tian Heng over… and whether you will be able to live well and enjoy wealth shall all depend on your performance later!”
