Chapter 176
The Guan, Yang, and Shen Tu Clans didn’t have anymore good days, while the Li Clan was now enjoying the moment .
Now that their young clan leader was a gold class direct disciple of the Azure Water Sect, who would dare to provoke the Li Clan in the future? Who would dare to try oppress them?
For the past decade, the Li Clan being one of the four major clans was nothing more than words .
Cloud Mist City was just a small city with a population of 200 hundred thousand people, the entire region amounted to about 1 million people .
The three major clans raked up a million plus gold coins every year .
The Yang Clan took half of the share, bringing in about 500 thousand gold coins per annum .
The Guan Clan was ranked second at 400 thousand gold coins .
The Li Clan had less than 200 thousand gold coins .
The reason why it was so different, was due to the combined oppression of the Yang and Guan Clan . It was also due to the oppression from the dark by the Shen Tu Clan .
Ten years ago, the Li Clan had almost 80 clan stores in Cloud Mist City . But now, there were only 30 so stores .
As Shen Tu Clan was the city lord’s clan and also in accordance to sect rules, the city lord’s clan could not be involved in any businesses . But those that started up their own business would have to pay taxes . In addition, every clan had to pay taxes too . Other than that, each faction would try to bribe them in the dark . So the Shen Tu Clan’s income was undoubtedly the highest . As for how much exactly, only city lord Shen Tu Jianhe would know .
Now that the Li Clan had Li Fuchen, not only could they return to their prime state . They could even far exceed their prime .

Silver Rich City, City lord residence…
“Uncle, that Li Fuchen is too arrogant, you need to help me take revenge . ” Xiang Jiayu pleaded the Silver Rich City lord Xiang Tianqiong .
Xiang Tianqiong’s eyes flickered, he then said slowly, “I shall bring you to seek for forgiveness tomorrow . ”
“Okay… What?”
Xiang Jiayu nodded unconsciously but quickly reacted .
‘Uncle was not going to take revenge for her but was bringing her along to seek forgiveness?’
Hearing such, Li Yunhe was flabbergasted .
He was worried Xiang Jiayu may meet trouble along the way back, so he brought two guards to escort her .
“Why uncle? Is our Xiang Clan afraid of a direct disciple? Cousin brother is also a direct disciple and has been so for a few years now . ” Xiang Jiayu was unwilling to accept this decision .
Only allowed on Creativenovels . com
“Jiayu, you are too rash . ”
Outside of the halls, a youth walked in .
Xiang Jiayu and Li Yunhe turned around, Xiang Jiayu then asked, “Tianqiang ge, why are you back?”
“It is fortunate I am back . Do you know that direct disciples are also separated into ranks? I am a silver class direct disciple of the Azure Water Sect, but Li Fuchen is a gold class direct disciple . ” Xiang Tianqiang was unwilling, but had to admit it .
“Gold class direct disciple?” Xiang Jiayu went into a stasis .
“Gold class direct disciples have the authority to dismiss a regular city lord, but silver class direct disciples don’t . Don’t even mention our Xiang Clan, even a major city lord wouldn’t dare to provoke a gold class direct disciple . They would even try to get in their good books, but you actually offended a gold class direct disciple . ”
“Dismissing a city lord . ” Xiang Jiayu and Li Yunhe gasped for air .
Gold class direct disciples had too much authority right? They were actually allowed to dismiss a city lord?
Xiang Tianqiang then said, “Don’t even mention Li Fuchen as a gold class direct disciple, even if he was a silver class direct disciple, we too cannot offend him . A 19 year old silver class direct disciple has a much higher status than me . Do you really think our Xiang Clan to be that glorious that we can offend anyone? Let me tell you, if we offend someone that we cannot afford to, the Xiang Clan may probably lose all its glory in a single day . ”
“What can we do now?” Xiang Jiayu panicked .
