Fang Qingyun: "..."

Fang Zhenghang lowered his voice, cursing: "Can’t you learn from your cousin? When you were at the Martial Arts Academy, your cousin was still at home clueless, and now you’ve been left so far behind? You can’t even see his behind?"

Fang Qingyun twisted his face, I thought you were genuinely praising me outside just now, I was so moved.

So it was all waiting for this...

"Dad, you don’t know, that kind of prodigy my cousin is, no normal person can compare to him... Not a single person in the whole Martial Arts Academy is better than him, let alone me, the one at the bottom of the rank."

"You’re obviously just not putting in the effort. Last time your cousin came back, he said you were being surrounded by a group of girls at the Martial Arts Academy, which made me so angry, and now it seems you never learn!"

Fang Zhenghang shouted angrily in a low voice: "Bring the family rules!"

"I didn’t!"

Fang Qingyun felt extremely wronged.

"Still saying you didn’t!"

Clap, clap, clap...

After a beating, Fang Zhenghang gasped: "What level are you now? Have you reached Martial General?"

"I am already a Martial Marshal, first grade Martial Marshal."

Fang Qingyun sighed.

"Martial Marshal!"

Fang Zhenghang’s face instantly lit up with joy: "So fast!"

"Yes, even my instructor says my cultivation is fast now, like I’ve had an epiphany."

But just as Fang Zhenghang’s face began to show joy, without knowing what crossed his mind, he lashed out again with a whip.

Slap!

"Ow! Dad, why are you hitting me again?"

"Your cousin is already a Martial King, the World’s First King! You’re just a lousy Martial Marshal, not even a Marquis, and yet you are so smug!"

Fang Zhenghang scolded angrily.

Fang Qingyun sighed, lowering his head and taking the beating obediently.

He didn’t know when his father had raised his expectations for him, as it used to be that every time he’d say: Qingyun, Dad doesn’t have big expectations, if you can become a Martial General and come back to take over the family business, Dad would be satisfied.

Now, he got promoted to Martial Marshal so quickly and still got beaten at home!

Where does this make sense!

"But this period of progress has truly been rapid," Fang Zhenghang said, "Truly had an epiphany?"

"The resources my cousin provided, a lot of times."

"You’ve got some nerve, as a brother not knowing how to take care of your brother, and actually needing your brother’s resources!"

These words left Fang Qingyun speechless.

"I’d like to... but my resources mean nothing to my cousin, and they are truly useless to him. Plus, when my cousin gives me resources, he never comes in person, always through the instructor... I want to take care of my brother, but..."

Fang Qingyun looked helpless.

Who, as a brother, wouldn’t want to look magnanimous in front of their brother, becoming their brother’s idol and support?

But the problem is... I truly can’t do it.

Just then, there was a sudden commotion in the front courtyard, it seemed to suddenly become lively because of something.

Then someone shouted: "Cousin Young Master is back!!"

Fang Zhenghang froze and then was overjoyed, he kicked his son: "Your cousin is back, why are you still kneeling here for?"

He rushed out in a hurry.

Fang Qingyun: "..."

I am your son after all!

The cheers quickly alerted everyone in the Fang Family, and they suddenly came rushing out.

"Fang Che is back?"

"Where?" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Fang Qianyi was in the small courtyard trimming plants with scissors, and when she suddenly heard this shout, her hand shook, and the flower bud of her most cherished orchid fell to the ground.

But she didn’t even see it, threw the scissors aside, and ran outside.

"My son is back!"

Whoosh, she was gone without a trace.

This time when Fang Che and Ye Meng returned, ever since entering the city, they felt a difference.

Bibo City hung with lanterns and banners, just like the New Year.

The ground was swept clean, not a bit of trash in sight.

The passersby on the street all looked proud.

As they walked towards the city, slowly some people recognized Fang Che.

"Mr. Fang is back!"

"Oh, it’s really Mr. Fang back!"

"The World’s First King!"

A continuous stream of cheers and accolades, like mountains and seas. Countless people flocked from all directions, to admire the poise of the World’s First King.

Immediately, the street was chock-full of people.

Fang Che could only bow his hands in greeting all the way, waving. If he recognized someone, he had to say hello.

The homecoming wasn’t for his own face, but for his mother’s face, so at this time, he must not be high and mighty.

Consider everyone’s feelings, concerning the future face of his mother and family in Bibo City, to be well-respected.

So Fang Che was very courteous, with a warm smile on his face, thoroughly joyful like a wanderer returning home, being amiable to everyone.

"Ah, Uncle Qin, long time no see."

"Aunt Wang, I still remember how delicious your baked buns were."

"Hey that kid called Erdan, don’t run, last year when you were five you turned your behind towards me and pooped... Come here for a spanking!"

A small child in the crowd turned back making a face: "I’m not letting you spank me!"

And ran away like a wisp of smoke.

Immediately, laughter filled the crowd.

Everyone felt very warm. Mr. Fang achieved such a great accomplishment, but he still interacted so warmly with the townsfolk, never forgetting his roots, truly good.

Soon enough, the praises increased even more.

Ahead, wherever he went, a path opened up in the crowd, followed closely as they all moved forward together, majestic and grand.

This return trip didn’t bring up even a mention of ’Righteous Young Master Fang’.

The crowd was crowded, but Fang Che and Ye Meng walked quickly, Ye Meng’s face was blush red the whole way.

Because the crowd was full of praises.

"This young wife is truly beautiful."

"How can Mr. Fang’s wife not be beautiful?"

"As expected of Mr. Fang’s wife."

"Like a Heavenly Immortal, truly beautiful."

"Golden boy and jade girl, they look so good together."
