Systemless Villain

Chapter 68 Ambitions and Aspirations

"So, in conclusion, you are entitled to become the owner of the Tianjia Pavilion," the elderly man stated firmly.

Long Tian's grin widened. Finally, he would officially own this prestigious establishment.

"Now, am I officially the owner of this place?" he inquired.

"Yes, and we couldn't be more delighted and reassured that this place will be in the hands of someone truly deserving. Not only are you talented, but you're also young and full of potential. Our master must be smiling upon this decision," the elderly man responded with a warm smile.

The other 19 individuals nodded in agreement, signifying that they believed Long Tian was the rightful owner of the pavilion.

Long Tian smiled, though internally, he couldn't help but laughed, secretly savoring the knowledge that he had devoured their master's soul.

"From this moment onward, I am the owner of the Tianjia Pavilion. I won't implement any major changes for the internal, and I intend to keep all of you employed here," he announced.

"Thank you, Young Master Long," the elderly man said with gratitude.

"No need for thanks. You've managed and developed this place excellently, and I have no plans to replace any of you. However, I will be recruiting additional staff. The Tianjia Pavilion won't remain stagnant. I aspire for this place to become the entertainment hub of Tianzhou and eventually rise to the number one spot in all of China," Long Tian declared, his grin reflected his ambition.

Upon hearing this, everyone present became filled with enthusiasm. They felt reassured under Long Tian's leadership.

"Young Master Long, we will work diligently!"

"We'll put in our utmost effort to enhance this place!"

"I can now rest in peace, knowing that the Tianjia Pavilion is in capable hands."

Each of them expressed their commitment, for the Tianjia Pavilion was the sole legacy left behind by their master, Ou Yang Wentian. Their loyalty was unwavering, and they were willing to go to great lengths to advance this establishment.

On the other hand, Liu Qian observed the scene in silence. She understood the situation, although the notion of Long Tian becoming the owner of this grand venue was still rather astonishing to her.

"Alright, let's move on to the next topic. Is there an inauguration ceremony planned for my role as the owner of this place?" Long Tian inquired.

"If you wish, Young Master Long, we can organize a grand ceremony and extend invitations to many renowned figures. This could potentially attract significant investment," the elderly man proposed.

"In that case, there's no need for an elaborate ceremony or additional formalities. Just prepare the necessary documents confirming my ownership. As for investment, you needn't concern yourselves with it. I would like all of you to visit my villa in two days to discuss the expansion and future of the Tianjia Pavilion," Long Tian instructed.

The elderly man nodded, "As you wish, Young Master Long. We'll be sure to attend," he confirmed.

"Alright, I think that concludes our discussions for today. I am now officially the owner of the Tianjia Pavilion, and there's no need to prolong this further. Everything is clear, and considering the late hour, we shall take our leave," Long Tian announced.

After exchanging handshakes and farewells, Long Tian and Liu Qian exited the room.

**************

Inside the elevator, Long Tian noticed Liu Qian's expression.

"What? You've been silent since we left the room," Long Tian remarked.

"No, I just... I'm finding it hard to believe. You're going to be the owner of this place? I mean, this place is enormous and grand, perhaps worth hundreds of millions of Yuan, or even billion," Liu Qian admitted, disbelief and astonishment in her voice.

"Well, thanks to my dual martial spirit, I was able to conquer all the challenges in the Strength-testing Trials," Long Tian explained.

Liu Qian smiled, "Long Tian, you've changed so much. I remember when you were in middle school, always causing trouble. And in high school, I heard rumors of your playboy antics. But now, you seem to have transformed into an entirely different person. You're even the owner of this magnificent place. I'm genuinely happy for you," she said sincerely.

"Well, I made a conscious effort to become a better person. Leaving behind bad habits and embracing the good ones, I guess it all fell into place," Long Tian replied, a smile gracing his feature.

The two friends continued to converse warmly. Their deep-rooted childhood friendship held a special place in their hearts.

**************

Some time passed, and eventually, Long Tian bid farewell to Liu Qian after dropping her off at her home.

With that, he got into his car and headed for his villa. He had already acquired the primary ingredient, the Dreaming Lotus, which would eliminate Li Yue'er's unique side effects.

**************

After more than 15 minutes of driving, Long Tian arrived at his villa. As usual, his subordinates greeted him and opened the gate. He then drove in and parked his car.

However, as he stepped out of the car, he sensed a powerful aura approaching. He looked up and saw a man flying towards him.

The man landed gracefully right in front of him. Long Tian raised an eyebrow, "Uncle Ling, you don't seem like your usual self today. Your aura feels more formidable," he remarked.

"You feel it? Well, I've reached a new stage in my cultivation. It's safe to say that I'm getting closer to the Transcendent realm," Ling Han responded, his tone radiating satisfaction.

"Is that so? Congratulations, Uncle Ling. I'd be thrilled if you truly achieve that legendary realm," Long Tian said.

"On the contrary, Young Master, I should be congratulating you. I heard from the patriarch that you've awakened a dual Martial Spirit. I'm truly excited for you, Young Master," Ling Han said, his face beaming with joy.

"Haha, thank you, Uncle Ling. I didn't anticipate awakening a dual martial spirit either," Long Tian replied.

"Unfortunately, I couldn't attend the event due to my cultivation progress. But, may I witness it now, Young Master?" Ling Han inquired eagerly.

"Of course," Long Tian nodded.

With that, he closed his eyes, and a thin, red aura began to emanate from his body. In the next moment, two colossal figures formed above him, revealing Shen Long and Zeus behind him.

Ling Han was taken aback; these two martial spirits were enormous, even larger than his own.

Several guards also noticed and swiftly glanced upward, their expressions mirroring Ling Han's astonishment.

"Magnificent, what class are they, Young Master?" Ling Han asked.

"Both are S-Class," Long Tian replied casually.

"What?!" Ling Han was shocked. "Are you serious, Young Master? Both are S-Class?!"

"Well, the colossal dragon is Shen Long, S-Class, but the figure enveloped in lightning isn't specified in the inscription. However, I'm certain it's also S-Class," Long Tian affirmed.

Ling Han was utterly dumbfounded. Dual martial spirits, and both were immensely powerful.

He patted Long Tian on the shoulder, saying, "I'm incredibly proud of you, Young Master. Even your mother would be overjoyed to hear this. Well, tomorrow is the Long family's annual celebration. Let's show them who shines the brightest."

Long Tian simply smiled. Tomorrow, he would head to Beijing to attend the Long family's annual celebration. The one who outshone the others would receive cultivation resources as rewards and the privilege to enter the dragon realm for an hour.

The dragon realm was a portal to another world. It had existed since the first generation, and not just anyone could enter it. Even his father, a patriarch, wasn't allowed entry unless he received approval from the 20 Elders.

This was because it required an enormous amount of spiritual stones and various resources to maintain the portal once someone entered. So, one hour was a precious gift.

He didn't know much about the dragon realm. Even in the original plot, it wasn't explained.

**************

After their conversation, Long Tian entered the villa. He immediately headed for the second floor, where Li Yue'er's room was located.

Upon opening the door, he found it empty; there was no sign of Li Yue'er.

"It seems her side effects have disappeared tonight, but where is she?" Long Tian murmured.

At that moment, Shen Yulan emerged from the jade, stating, "I sense her presence in the backyard; she might be there."

"Is that so? Well, it's perfect if she's there," Long Tian smirked.
