บท 74: Power of Having a Backer
Pan You looked at the old man who talked. He then shouts, "Scram away old man! This is my own business."
"Hehehe" The old man laughed when he heard this. This was the principal.
The group of boys as well as the guards suddenly felt weights pressing them down to the ground. Pan You paled, if even the guards were kneeling, then this old man must be stronger than a Core Formation Cultivator.
"You all dare chase my daughter to beat her up! Who do you think you are?!" This time, the principal used a domineering voice.
"Haha, they said he was the second son of some general." Xiao Yan chuckled.
"Although this general should have the same strength as me, I still won't let you off for trying to harm my daughter!" The principal then increased his pressuring aura which made Pan You cough blood.
He of course only did this and did not hurt him more than this. It was rather troublesome to have a fallout with a general of a kingdom.
It was then that another man with two other men at his back arrived at the scene. He covered Pan You with his aura, which stopped him from getting hurt from the principal's.
"May I ask what happened here? I'm the father of this child." The man said as he greeted the principal with a bow.
"Your son just tried to harm my daughter. If I didn't give them some communication talisman, I wouldn't have known of this. They might have succeeded as even the guards were chasing my daughter. Is this how the Tai Ming Kingdom treats its guests?!", replied the principal.
"I will certainly discipline my child. Can you let him off? I will certainly give compensation for this incident." The man offered.
A crafty fox smile appeared on the principal's face as he negotiated with the man. He has the advantage, even if the other party has more people. They wouldn't want to have rumors flying around that they treated the guests like this.
He successfully received the maximum amount that he could ask. He then turned to Xiao Yan and asked, "Where did you lead my daughter to actually attract some bastard's attention?"
"We just wanted to eat dinner so we went to a restaurant. Who knew that we will meet some 2nd generation bastard. We haven't even eaten the food that we ordered when he suddenly appeared." Xiao Yan explained. They must really be unlucky to meet that guy.
"Now, it's time to talk about the compensation they gave! I should at least receive 40% of it, right?" Xiao Yan asked.
"That won't happen!" The two then spoke to each other while Mu Yue was waiting at the sides.
"Can we go to a restaurant before you guys talk about that?" Mu Yue reminded.
"Sure. This time, I, your father will go with you."
They chose a different restaurant, more luxurious than the last one.
"Father, what did you swindle from that general?" Mu Yue asked.
"Swindle? No no, this is called receiving the good intention of others. It was just a good amount of gold."
"Then how much is it?"
"30 000"
This surprised Mu Yue. They were willing to give that much just for compensation?
"This amount isn't that surprising. Because you have me as your backer, and they also don't want to lose their reputation, they gave me this amount. For us, this was rather fitting. Not too much but also not too low." The principal explained.
"Then may I ask how much money you have father? I just want to compare it." Mu Yue asked.
"HAHAHA! Your father is dirt poor! This amount should probably exceed his savings by twice or even thrice." Xiao Yan laughed at this which made the principal frown.
"I don't have that much money because I don't need it! I already have the items I will need. Gold is worthless for Celestials anyway." The principal explained. He then said, "All of this should go to you, Mu Yue."
"Yeah, all of it should go to Mu Yue. I won't take my portion." Xiao Yan happily said.
Mu Yue shakes her head. "You might need it more than me, father. I might actually be richer than you."
"I don't need it anyway. You can use it to bid at the auction." The principal suggested.
Seeing this, Mu Yue just received the gold coins and put it in her storage ring.
At the end of the day, Xiao Yan can only mumble, "My date with Mu Yue was ruined..."

I always wanted to have such scene where the MC actually could rely on their backer.
I have read too many novel that doesn't rely on outside help because of 'Using it as experience'.
Just tried to do a different one. No problems if you have your almighty father.
