She wasn't arrogant at all, thinking that having an SSS-level follower meant she didn't need to care about SS-level followers. Naturally, the more high-level followers the better, so that her brother's wealth would become more and more abundant.
But to everyone's surprise, before Su Lin could even reply, Li Xingtian flew into a rage, pointing a finger at Xiao Linlin and saying, "You little brat, you're incredibly greedy!"
"If you give all the good stuff to your brother, what will happen to my Sword Pavilion!"
"ah?"
Xiao Linlin shrank back and whispered a reminder: "Grandpa, Sword Pavilion is gone."
"What do you mean it's gone! What do you mean it's gone!"
Li Xingtian's voice grew louder and louder: "If it's gone, we'll rebuild it! You've taken everyone away, how can Sword Pavilion rebuild itself!"
"I've almost wiped out this entire family. I finally managed to leave behind a decent young talent, and you want to take him away too?"
"Only one of us can be taken away, either him or me!"
Li Xingtian's attitude was very firm: Su Lin could only take one of them; he absolutely refused to take them all.
No matter what, Sword Pavilion is his home. Even if his home is gone, he will rebuild it. How can he leave no hope at all?
"Then... then take Grandpa with you, and leave Father behind."
Xiao Linlin reluctantly agreed. She could tell that unless it was something serious, her brother would never refuse the old man's request.
It's not like I'm lacking a good minion anyway, and besides... even if I don't get it this time, there's always another chance!
Xiao Linlin understood that if she could play the game world a second time, she could definitely play it a third time.
Let Su Qingyang stay here and develop on his own. Although he will no longer have Senior Li's guidance, he will also no longer be suppressed by Senior Li. Who knows, he might be able to forge an even more brilliant path in martial arts.
When he reaches the pinnacle of his career again, his adopted son will take you out to see the new world... That's not too much to ask, is it?
"You look very dissatisfied?"
Li Xingtian stared at Xiao Linlin. With the memories given to him by the mechanism, he understood the girl's cunning and scheming more and more. She would try to get her brother almost anything good.
"Why would I be dissatisfied?"
"Then what are you doing with your eyes?! How can a blind person be so quick-witted? I know you're cunning!"
"This...Grandpa, I just feel that we've been neglecting Senior Sister, which seems a bit unfair."
Xiao Linlin kept her head down, but still insisted on negotiating with the old man: "Think about it, what we're discussing here is something that Senior Sister wouldn't understand."
What she said was true. Xu Zhenshu looked completely bewildered, not understanding what everyone was talking about, but she still stood obediently waiting for instructions, without arguing or fighting.
“If we leave, with Father’s temperament, he definitely won’t be able to take good care of Senior Sister. She’ll suffer a lot.”
"Senior sister has already eaten so much with you. She's so lucky to be with you, brother. It's time for her to enjoy some good days."
Xiao Linlin argued vehemently, but Li Xingtian sneered, "Escaping is considered a good day? You certainly have a silver tongue!"
"It's alright, your brother will protect you."
Xiao Linlin said confidently, "My brother's character is absolutely impeccable. As long as he's alive, none of us will suffer. He's strong! He's a truly upright man!"
"snort!"
Li Xingtian sneered with his hands behind his back, but he didn't say anything more.
Xiao Linlin smiled sweetly, knowing that Senior Li had agreed.
If I can't win over Su Qingyang, winning over Xu Zhenshu is not bad either; it's still a bonus.
Xu Zhenshu, standing beside her, had her head down, but a hint of joy flickered in her eyes. She had overheard most of what Linlin was trying to do for her.
Li Xingtian wasn't indifferent to Xu Zhenshu. This girl had followed him into hiding for many years and suffered greatly. If she were to stay and work with Su Qingyang on some project to rebuild the Sword Pavilion, then there would be endless suffering waiting for her.
What's more, you have your lover right in front of you, yet you have to watch him leave again.
To do this is truly heartless and excessively tragic.
Although there is a mechanism at play in this relationship, in the eyes of the older generation: it doesn't matter who you marry, as long as the good stuff doesn't go to outsiders.
Li Xingtian already had a plan in mind and wouldn't refuse the matter, but he still wanted to compete with Xiao Linlin in front of Su Lin.
At least let this kid know that Xu Zhenshu is also a member of the Sword Pavilion and is protected by the old man.
You're starting to build up your business empire, kid. With so many followers, you're probably going to form several systems in the future.
But within the Sword Pavilion lineage, there are only two people who hold a place in your heart.
"She can talk a lot of nonsense. If you don't discipline this girl soon, she might rebel when she grows up."
Senior Li pointed at Xiao Linlin and spoke earnestly to Su Lin. Su Lin nodded, "I'll remember that. I'll definitely discipline her strictly later."
Xiao Linlin pouted, not caring much, and quietly tugged at Xu Zhenshu's sleeve.
Senior sister looked down, and Xiao Linlin giggled and whispered, "Senior sister, I promised you, I would let you stay with brother forever."
Are you happy?
"Um."
Xu Zhenshu nodded gently, her heart filled with joy, but she retained a girl's reserve and was unwilling to reveal much.
She glanced at Su Lin's profile more often, her heart filled with sweet affection and an unyielding joy.
"Then you must remember that, and never forget it again."
Xiao Linlin smiled and said softly, "I fought for all of this for you, and I brought my brother to your side. I will also make sure my brother nurtures you and helps you become stronger."
“I will never forget, Linlin.”
Xu Zhenshu answered softly, her mind still full of beautiful dreams for the future, yet she hadn't grasped Xiao Linlin's implication. But Xiao Linlin believed she would understand in the future.
Xiao Linlin had already started doing some things a long time ago.
