Chapter 2067: Liu Yichen

A decade later, the influence of the Liu Clan Castle surged, transforming the world—or rather, the legacy now known as the Willow Leaf Manor became a household name across the land.

This resurgence followed the return of the young lord of the Liu Castle, Liu Yichen, who had been cast out years ago under the pretense of intense cultivation training.

Upon his arrival, Liu Minfeng still held the title of Lord of the Liu Castle, though the mantle of successor had been firmly placed upon his eldest son, Liu Yitian.

Neither Liu Minfeng nor Liu Yitian had anticipated that the boy who vanished into obscurity ten years prior would reappear to challenge the established order of the Liu Clan.

Liu Yichen arrived draped in white, his features having matured into a striking, refined elegance that perfectly melded the grace of Liu Shijun with the intensity of Ye Mohan.

While beauty is a term usually reserved for women, there was an undeniably exquisite quality to his appearance.

His eyes, alluring like silk, held a hidden sharpness. With a cryptic smile dancing on his lips, he looked upon Liu Minfeng and his kin and remarked, “Second Grandfather, Uncles, Brothers, and Sisters, I once stood as the rightful Lord of the Liu Castle, yet I still desired to vie for the seat of power. You banished me from my own home under the guise of training. Six years have passed since your conditions were met. Now, are you prepared to return the lordship to me?”

Stunned by his sudden reemergence, visible waves of fear and agitation swept across the faces of Liu Minfeng and Liu Yitian.

Regardless of their inner turmoil, they had held positions of power for years and were well-accustomed to weathering storms.

Once the initial shock faded, they quickly regained their composure.

Liu Minfeng sneered, “Who are you? How dare you enter my Liu Castle and pose as the former young master? The business world knows full well that while the young master was away on business, he was beset by bandits and perished, his remains never recovered.”

Following his father’s cue, Liu Yitian’s complexion shifted from a sickly pallor to a furious shade of green. He erupted in rage.

With a trembling finger pointed at Liu Yichen, he barked, “What audacity! To impersonate the former young master? Men, seize him! We must extract the mastermind behind this scheme.” Of course, the threat was mere theater; there was no conspiracy to uncover.

As he finished his command, four guards strode out toward Liu Yichen.

Instead of subduing him, however, the four guards bowed deeply and addressed him with reverence: “Young Master!”

The pupils of Liu Minfeng and his party constricted in shock. They were utterly blindsided by this turn of events.

Liu Minfeng’s youngest son was the first to lash out: “What are you doing? Arrest this imposter at once, or you shall face the consequences!”

One guard replied with an icy tone: “We know far better than you who the true Young Master is!”

Liu Minfeng and his inner circle were rendered speechless, their composure beginning to fracture into genuine panic.

“Guards!” he shrieked. “Apprehend these traitors immediately!”

A second, larger contingent of ten guards approached. The tension thickened, only for these ten men to mirror the first, bowing respectfully to Liu Yichen with the same declaration: “Young Master!”

Liu Minfeng’s face turned corpse-pale. He stammered, “Have you all been bought? Do you choose betrayal?”

The lead guard remarked with cold detachment, “The Liu Castle belongs to the Young Master Liu Yichen. Loyalty to him is our only path.”

Liu Minfeng and his family were frozen. When had Liu Yichen infiltrated the castle to sway the guards? Though the extent of his influence remained unknown, the realization was enough to plunge them into despair.

“Men!” Liu Minfeng roared again.

Liu Yichen chuckled dryly. “Second Grandfather, it is futile. No matter how many men you summon, they will acknowledge only me as the Young Master.”

“You… since when did you bribe them?” Liu Minfeng asked, his voice trembling.

Liu Yichen shook his head calmly. “I needed no such thing. These were the guards my grandfather personally groomed for my protection; their loyalty belongs to me alone.”

“How is this possible?” Liu Minfeng whispered in disbelief, still unable to comprehend the shift. He believed power lay in the title, yet his own efforts to recruit personal men paled in comparison to the elite core trained by the old guard.

A dark transformation washed over Liu Yichen’s face as hatred flared in his eyes.

He shouted, “Liu Minfeng, you orchestrated the bandit attack, murdered my parents, corrupted the servants, and poisoned my grandfather. Today, we settle this blood feud once and for all!”

“Kill them!” he commanded with icy finality.

Instantly, cloaked figures emerged from the shadows, sealing off the room and surrounding Liu Minfeng and his kin.

Terrified, the group cried out, “Liu Yichen, you cannot do this! We are your only remaining family!”

Liu Yichen scoffed, “I have no qualms about disposing of my enemies.”

Before the words finished echoing, the men in black descended. The desperate pleas of the Liu family were silenced, and the main hall was washed in blood.

Once the last of his enemies was vanquished, Liu Yichen went to the ancestral hall to pay his respects.

“Father, Mother, Grandfather, the debt has been paid. Rest in peace.”

The Liu Clan Castle was officially renamed Willow Leaf Villa in honor of his fallen family.

From that day forward, Liu Yichen wielded three distinct identities to command the business world: the wealthiest magnate of Longyan Country, the elusive 'Thousand-faced Man' of the Jianghu, and the feared leader of the Demonic Sect.

He carried the heavy burden left by his master, the former Demonic Sect leader, plotting to overthrow the Dragon Dynasty, dismantle the Yuwen family, and seize control of the realm.

Brilliant and cunning, he used his vast wealth to fund the Demon Cult and his alias as the Thousand-faced Man to gather intelligence throughout the Jianghu.

The master plan was set to eventually restore the old dynasty’s order.

Yet, the whims of fate far outweighed the schemes of men.

During his travels, he been ensnared in a trap, only to be rescued by Wen Yujing, to whom he pledged three favors.

He never anticipated that his duties would lead him to a girl who would captivate his very soul: Lin Yuelan.

She was merely a village girl, yet her existence would alter the fate of Longyan Country and the world itself.

Hiding his role as the Demon Cult Master, he approached her under the guise of the wealthiest merchant.

To his dismay, he found himself utterly infatuated with her.

But love is a two-way street; he harbored deep affection, yet Lin Yuelan’s heart belonged to another—the legendary God of War, Jiang Zhennan.

He suffered, swayed by jealousy, even contemplating dark means to pull her away.

However, every time he witnessed her genuine, radiant happiness, his resolve melted. His conscience could not bear to shatter her smile.

As he learned more of her astounding capabilities, he realized that any forceful attempt would result only in his own ruin.

He chose to stay by her side, a loyal protector and an older brother.

As for the restoration of the dynasty? It mattered little. It was insignificant compared to the joy Lin Yuelan deserved.

Liu Yichen never married, content to remain her devoted brother until his final days.

Lin Yuelan decided that their children would call him godfather.

In their twilight years, the three of them journeyed together, with Jiang Zhennan constantly feuding with his
