I Don't Want To Go Against The Sky

Chapter 14

In the afternoon.

The rumor about tax exemption in w.a.n.g Village was spread in many villages.

When they first heard it, no one believed it and thought it just a rumor.

It was so hard for them to believe the n.o.bles to exempt the agricultural tax.

But the people in w.a.n.g Village didn"t bother about the others said.

Some people wanted to boycott tax from Lin Family.

But it could be quickly handled by Master Lin"s henchmen.

If those people wanted to boycott the tax system from the two major families, they would see their creator faster.

Because they were scared the entire village got slaughtered, no one has yet made a fuss for it.

But today.

Many people, especially in w.a.n.g Village, remembered Young Master Lin"s kindness.

They thought to celebrate a particular day, the day when Lin Fan exempt them for the tax.

At night.

Liang Family.

They had a feast tonight.

Liang Yongqi was the third son of Liang Family, and his status was very high in Liang Family.

He also has a big brother and a big sister.

As for the big sister, he didn"t bother at all what she wanted to do.

Because for him, the only threat was the big brother, Liang Yichu.

Whether in appearance, status, or in martial arts, his big brother Liang Yichu was better than him.

But even the fact was undeniable he got no chance, he still thought about to be the heir of Liang Family, the only master.

On the main hall.

Liang Family discussed the tax rumor, they have put down the chopsticks, and started to talk, “I got the news this afternoon. Lin Family"s heir went to w.a.n.g Village. He even made a decree for w.a.n.g Village to exempt this year"s tax. He also bluntly say that the annual tax revenue will only be 10%. If this Lin Family already handed over into his hands, I know how it ends.”

It would be an exciting topic.

Liang Yongqi bluntly said, “Father, that kid is a waste, all he wants just eat and stroll around, he is useless, even he shows the compa.s.sion to the commoners when Lin Family dies in his hands, let"s see who will pity him.”

“Well, what the third son say it is reasonable.” Master Liang nodded, he agreed.

For Liang Yongqi, every time he thought about Lin Fan, his heart was burned hot.

He breathed in the aroma of the tea to calm his nerve.

“Big brother, what do you think about this guy?” Liang Yongqi asked.

Liang Yichu was so handsome and charismatic.

“My little brother, I don"t think that Lin guy is doing a stupid thing. This year"s weather is greatly influenced by the harvest, appropriate tax cuts, or exemption from this year"s tax. It"s not stupid at all, he gives those civilians a way to live.”

“Father, little brother, I think that we can also reduce taxes appropriately so that the civilians can remember the kindness of our Liang Family.”

Under the dinner table.

Miss Liang, kicked her big brother with her feet.

She didn"t want her brother to discuss that matter.

“Oh!” Liang Yongqi smiled, “Big brother, I disagree with you. What is the use of those people"s safety for us? How many people outside the city want us to help them, do you think one or two silver coins would be enough? Just let them be a slave, and they will not worry about food anymore.”

Liang Yichu shook his head, “My little brother, don"t say that, no matter what, every life is precious. Father, now Lin Family takes the lead, and our Liang Family does not lack funds too, I think it is better to extemp this year"s tax.”

“What?!”

Master Liang slammed the table, and the tableware was scattered, “Oh G.o.d, I can"t believe this. How can I hand over Liang Family to you in the future? You must learn from your little brother.”

“Miss Su just arrived at Yucheng City. I will go to meet her tomorrow with my third son. You, as the eldest brother, will stay at home to reflect what you said earlier.”

After finished, Master Liang left the dining hall and walked toward the backyard.

Liang Yongqi had a smile on his face and looked at his eldest brother. He wanted to tease him, “Big brother, it is useless, just look at how Lin Family has fallen because of their heir.”

Then he seemed to be thinking of something.

“Miss Su arrives in the city, and I find something interesting. I have to arrange a meeting with her. Big brother, the second sister, take it slowly. your little brother will take the lead.”

At the dinner hall.

Many of Liang Family elders ate their luxurious food.

“We are all brothers. Is it okay to do that? How can our little brother act like that?!” The second sister was upset.

Liang Yichu shook his head, “Our little brother is still green, he will understand it later.”

At this time.

A maid came and bring a bowl of soup, “Young Master, Miss, this is the signature soup of our chef. Please, have a taste.”

Miss Liang looked at the maid and smiled, “Yafei, I will accompany you to cook.”

After she exchanged a word, Miss Liang walked away.

In the banquet hall, many people would hear their conversation. So they took a precaution.

At midnight.

The moon shone brightly.

Lin Family"s backyard was tranquil.

Lin Fan was lying on the bed, fast asleep, and the voice of his snored gave a unique harmony to the quiet backyard.

The window was pushed open, it made a loud sound.

There was a figure near the window.

That person wore a ghost mask, so scary.

Also wearing a black a.s.sa.s.sin suit, he stood so quietly.

An ordinary person won"t notice this person"s presence.

Lin Fan was slept and looked like he had a good dream.

Did he realize there was an a.s.sa.s.sin in his house?

The a.s.sa.s.sin stood at the window, he hid his ident.i.ty, but if he took off the mask, Lin Fan would be surprised.

Even though the sound was so loud.

Lin Fan still sleeping?

After he observed the situation, the masked man slipped through the window and took out his dagger.

The bell rang.

“What?! Who is…”

Lin Fan finally woke up.

When he looked at the window, he found that someone in a black suit jumped in.

He was so surprised.

His heart pumped fast.

“Does someone here to a.s.sa.s.sinate me?”

He thought for a moment.

“I haven"t offended anyone recently.”

Well… The fact was, he offended Young Master from Liang Family and Miss Su from Su Family, a few days ago.

“Who are you? What are you doing in my house? I am a Young Master, Lin Fan. If you want to mess with me, I won"t let you go.”

“Help.”

“There are a.s.sa.s.sins.”

“Come and save me!”

When Lin Fan finished, he ran to the door.

‘Rage +30."

The black suit man did not expect Lin Fan to yell.

His footsteps were noiseless, and he clenched his fist.

In this small house, it would be hard for Lin Fan to retreat.

“Whoa, look at his movement!”

Lin Fan was worried, he could only retreat through the other side.

To distribute rage points into body power until it hit 24 might be not too bad.

With just one hit, the a.s.sa.s.sin nearly fainted.

Lin Fan tried to make an opportunity to escape.

Lin Fan exchanged blow with the a.s.sa.s.sin a few times.

“What!”

He found that this a.s.sa.s.sin was not skillful enough.

Maybe it would work.

Now.

Lin Fan got his confidence back.

“I can do it, I can beat him.”

“Mr. a.s.sa.s.sin, you have some guts, you dare to come at me, although you are very weak?” Lin Fan, with just his fist, cornered the a.s.sa.s.sin.

‘Rage +50."

“Oh, are you angry? Uh… I"m so afraid of you.” Lin Fan teased him.

Previously Lin Fan was panicked like a chicken, but now he was so confident.

“I will uncover this thug.”

There was a sound coming from outside.

“Cousin, I am coming, hold on.” Zhou Zhongmao shouted she worried about Lin Fan"s safety.

Lin Fan and the a.s.sa.s.sin kept exchanges blow, Lin Fan looked really confident.

Bam!

The a.s.sa.s.sin punched Lin Fan"s right eye.

After he landed a punch, the a.s.sa.s.sin jumped out of the window. Before he left, something dropped from his body, then he disappeared into the darkness in an instant, like a ghost.

“My eyes.”

“It hurts!.”

Lin Fan sat down and held his right eye.

“Just you wait! I will pay you back, with full interest!” Lin Fan looked so upset.

“Cousin, are you okay?” Zhou Zhongmao came in with a guard and talked in a panic.

“I"m not okay, my eyes are swollen. Can you look at it?” Lin Fan blinked his eyes and was really in pain.

Zhou Zhongmao orders the guards, “Guards, bring me the intruder!”

“Yes, Miss.”
