Chapter 565 Tang Ruyan’s Destiny

“It’s her!” “She’s back!”

When Tang Ruyan reached the street, the quaking ground alerted the Tang family people who were still busy repairing their residence. They were overjoyed when they recognized her.

“Welcome back, young lady!”

The pedestrians on the street were awed they met the beast; its aura made them tremble. But, instead of escaping, people got down one knee to pay their respects.

“Welcome back, young lady!” “Welcome back, young lady!” “Welcome back, young lady!!” All the kneeling people belonged to the Tang family, including the master battle pet warriors!

Master battle pet warriors would be among the upper class circles in any other smaller base city. Still, on that broken street, they didn’t think twice before they got down on their knees to bow.

The behemoth slowed down after landing on the street.

Tang Ruyan stood on the shoulder of the beast king as she gazed at the people kneeling before her. She saw many familiar faces; she had once worked for a certain number of them… Some were even elite members of the family. But at the moment, all of them were paying their utmost respect to her!

There had been a time when the Tang family abandoned her!

This day, she returned with glory, winning everyone’s respect!

“Tang family…”

Tang Ruyan gazed into the distance with a troubled look in her eyes.

News of Tang Ruyan’s triumphant return was spread across the Tang family compound. Tang Linzhan had been waiting for her with many elders when she reached the broken gate.

She had wiped out the Situ family and the Wang family on her own. Without a doubt, Tang Ruyan was the most powerful person in the Tang family, the biggest reliance!

“Ruyan.” Tang Linzhan hurried to her. Still, being wary of that beast she rode on, he dared not go too close, worried that it would attack him.

“Welcome back!”

The elders standing behind Tang Linzhan bowed to her. Some of them felt troubled. They had been the first ones to advocate for Tang Ruyan’s exile back then.

The main reason for that choice at the time was that they had thought the Tang family had suffered too great a loss just to get her back!

The second thing was, because the one who had captured Tang Ruyan was a legendary battle pet warrior. They wanted to get rid of her to avoid crossing paths with that legendary battle pet warrior again.

However, it had been Tang Ruyan who had returned in the most critical time, saving the Tang family and becoming the hero who protected them.

Standing behind all those people were the ruins and debris from where Tang Ruyu was silently looking at her big sister.

Tang Ruyu was aware that no one would object to Tang Ruyan becoming the future faily head, given her current power.

If Tang Ruyan wished it so, she could become the family head right then!

After all, it was astonishing that she had been able to clean out two families on her own. That was something that only a legendary battle pet warrior would be able to do!

While Tang Ruyan was not yet at the legendary rank, her strength wasn’t too far from it!

Whoosh!

Tang Ruyan jumped off from the beast king.

“I have finished the Situ family and the Wang family. They do have some remaining members scattered elsewhere.”

Tang Ruyan looked at her father. She suddenly noticed that she could remain very calm when she was with him. “I’ll trust you to take care of those matters. I won’t intervene from this point on.”

Tang Linzhan nodded with a warm and fawning smile. “But of course. We received the news. The toughest guys of the two families died in your hands; they no longer have a force to speak of. The remaining members won’t amount to anything.” Tang Ruyan nodded. She took a look around. The leftover ruins and debris did disturb her mind a bit. After all, that had been a place where she had played around when she was a

kid.

“I will leave the recovery to you. I trust that the Tang family shall be safe from today onward, since two of the main families are gone and the Yugong family is afraid to compete against the Tangs, unless a legendary battle pet warrior comes.”

Tang Ruyan said to her father earnestly, “While Tang family has been left practically without any true opponent to speak of, I do hope that you won’t bully others. I cannot assure that I can get back at once every time.”

“You’re right.”

Tang Linzhan nodded. He suddenly noticed a detail about what she had just said. “Get back? Are you leaving?”

The other elders noticed that as well, which was much to their surprise.

“I am no longer part of the Tang family. I don’t need to stay here,” Tang Ruyan claimed, coldly.

“Young lady, don’t be like that. You will forever be the Tang family’s future family head!”

One of the elders tried to talk some sense into Tang Ruyan. “Your Uncle Four and Uncle Six were the ones who proposed abandoning you. The family lost two armies to get you back and the loss enticed the Situ family and the Wang family into targeting us. “The family head tried to stop us from making that decision with all his might during the meeting. But you know how it is with the family; there wasn’t anything that we could do.”

Tang Ruyan frowned.

She glanced at her father.

Tried to stop them with all his might?

Tang Ruyan felt a tingling pain in her heart.

She didn’t believe it. But she wanted someone to tell her that this was true, deep down in her heart.

She was fully aware that it could not be.

“Yes. I was forced to look at the big picture, being the leader of the family. If you’re still angry about that, please do tell me. You returned today, with powers far above mine. You’ll be the new family head of the Tang family from today on!”

Tang Linzhan expressed his intention of handing over the position to Tang Ruyan right then and there.

The other elders were surprised to see their family head being so resolute and generous.

But that was not a bad thing; it could help them make Tang Ruyan stay.

Given her strength, being the family head could bring much more benefits for the Tang family!

“Miss, we were wrong. I am sorry.”

“I was one who proposed to abandon you.” “Please, miss, stay!” People stepped forward one after the other, kneeling before her and apologizing.

They were all titled battle pet warriors of the Tang family; some of them were honorable elders of the family. Uncle Four and Uncle Six for example, they were esteemed elders of the family; they had made great contributions to the family. However, they were kneeling in public to appease Tang Ruyan!

Other disciples of the Tang family were watching in the distance. To their shock, the elders were willing to give up their dignity, all to keep her.

Tang Ruyan was taken aback. Of course, she had never expected that the elders she had once held in high esteem would resort to such a grand gesture.

She had to admit that a bit of her anger had been dispersed.

She thought for a while in silence. “Sir, please, stand up.”

“Please stay!”

“Please. We will get up if you forgive us,” the elders said. They eyed Tang Ruyan with great anticipation, hoping that she would stay. Tang Ruyan didn’t say a word to them. She simply unleashed astral powers to lift them all up.

Some of the elders tried to fight back, but realized that they couldn’t go on unless they struggled with all their might.

Naturally, no one was going to do that. They could only stand up.

“I won’t stay here.”

Tang Ruyan glanced over at the elders and cast a final glance at Tang Linzhan. “I have to go back to the Longjiang Base City after this. I only have my strength because of him, that man. I am his employee. I wouldn’t be here today if it weren’t for him. Without him, I suppose… the Tang family would have been wiped out.”

They all stood there, dumbstruck.

They knew that Tang Ruyan had once been captured by that legendary battle pet warrior. Why would she go back?

She was working there?

Why would she give up the Tang family for that?!

Without the Situ and Wang families in the way, becoming the most powerful family of the Subcontinent District was a sure thing for the Tangs!

If she were the leader of the Tang family, she would stand at the top of the entire Subcontinent District!

She would enjoy many powers and privileges; one word from her could be the life or death of thousands of people!

Why would she give up all that for an employee position?!

“You…” Some elders wanted to try again.

“No need to say more, I made up my mind. I owe him my strength and I shall repay with the rest of my life!” Tang Ruyan declared.
