Jiang Xiaorou and Yi Yun embraced for a long time before slowly separating.

"Yun'er, how did your election go?"

Jiang Xiaorou was worried about Yi Yun's election performance, wondering if he would lose and be targeted by Lian Chengyu in the future.

After all, in Jiang Xiaorou's memory, Yi Yun had only been practicing martial arts for a very short time, making it extremely difficult for him to pass the election.

However, the moment Jiang Xiaorou asked that question, Jiang Xiaorou suddenly remembered something. She placed her hands on Yi Yun 'Yi Yun shoulders and scrutinized his clothes...

"Flying Fish Robe!"

Jiang Xiaorou actually recognized these clothes.

In the Tai'a Divine Kingdom, the clothing of nobles is very particular.

Embroidered with flying fish patterns, it is called Flying Fish Robe. Flying fish are actually unformed dragons; they are carp in the water that can transform into dragons when they encounter wind and clouds.

The robe with flying fish pattern and embroidered with Qiu Niu pattern is called Prison Ox Robe; the robe with python pattern is called python robe; and the robe with crane pattern is called flying crane robe.

For members of the imperial family and nobility, there were also patterns such as the Qilin, flying dragon, and Five-clawed Golden Dragon.

Different clothes correspond to different levels.

"Yun'er ...you can't wear these clothes randomly. If someone finds out, you'll be exiled for 30,000 miles. These are clothes only nobles can wear. Take them off quickly." Jiang Xiaorou said as she touched Yi Yun's collar, subconsciously assuming that Yi Yun was wearing someone else's clothes.

In Jiang Xiaorou's subconscious, the gap between nobles and commoners was simply too great, and it was very difficult for a commoner to become a noble!

To Jiang Xiaorou, Yi Yun becoming a nobleman was unimaginable.

But soon, Jiang Xiaorou realized something. Her hands froze in mid-air as she looked at Yi Yun in disbelief, from head to toe.

Jiang Xiaorou realized that Yi Yun was not only wearing Flying Fish Robe, but also carrying Wild Goose Wing Saber.

Not only that, he came to see her riding Unicorn Giant Rhinoceros.

The Unicorn Giant Rhinoceros. This is the mount of the Brocade Dragon Guard; you can't steal it, because even if you did, you couldn't control it!

These things couldn't all belong to someone else.

Then, a conclusion that Jiang Xiaorou hard to believe flashed through her mind—

"Yun'er, you... you've been granted a noble title!?"

Jiang Xiaorou was truly stunned.

Yun'er participated in a Divine Kingdom Grand Selection and was actually granted a noble title?! How is that possible?

Could it be that Yun'er's performance has been so outstanding that she has already reached the level of a noblewoman at the age of twelve?

"Sister Xiaorou, I passed the Divine Kingdom Grand Selection and became number one in the Mortal Blood Realm! I'm now an elite member of the Brocade Dragon Guard, and the Brocade Dragon Guard's commander has appointed me as National Scholar. From now on, I'll have my own fiefdom in the Central Plains. When that happens, I'll bring Sister Xiaorou over, and we'll live a good life."

Yi Yun said happily.

Often, happiness is that simple: when you get what you want and have someone to share your joy, that is happiness.

For Yi Yun, who has set ambitious goals for his future, the achievement of being named National Scholar is perhaps nothing more than a starting point.

But now, Yi Yun was genuinely delighted by this title because it held great significance for Jiang Xiaorou!

To National Scholar is an honor!

Jiang Xiaorou stared blankly at Yi Yun, still feeling like she was dreaming.

First among ordinary blood... Elite of the Brocade Dragon Guard... National Scholar...

Yun'er not only passed the election, but also became National Scholar the Tai'a Divine Kingdom with such outstanding results?

Jiang Xiaorou already knew that Yi Yun had some extraordinary encounter, and with the help of the "Old Man Su" he mentioned, it was not surprising that his strength had improved by leaps and bounds. However, she did not expect that Yi Yun would actually be granted the title of nobleman.

It took Jiang Xiaorou a long time to accept this news; it was truly bizarre.

"Sister Xiaorou, you even recognize the Flying Fish Robe..." Yi Yun was truly surprised by Jiang Xiaorou's knowledge. In Yi Yun's memory, Jiang Xiaorou was probably only seven or eight years old when she left her Lineage.

For a seven or eight-year-old child to have read so many books and know so much is something that most children cannot do.

Yi Yun was very curious about Jiang Xiaorou's background.

"Sister Xiaorou, I'm planning to have you train in martial arts with me."

Yi Yun had been considering this idea for a long time.

Human lifespan is too short. Yi Yun didn't want Jiang Xiaorou to die young, so he could only have Jiang Xiaorou practice martial arts.

Previously, Yi Yun was so hungry that he couldn't even afford to feed himself properly, let alone provide Jiang Xiaorou with the conditions to practice martial arts.

However, as he became National Scholar and had more and more resources, it was not impossible for him to let Jiang Xiaorou practice martial arts.

Yi Yun possesses the Origin Purple Crystal, Origin Purple Crystal can absorb energy. However, it resides within Yi Yun's body, making it difficult to channel the energy absorbed by the Purple Crystal into Jiang Xiaorou's use.

If we want Jiang Xiaorou to learn martial arts, we have to make use of other resources.

"I wonder how talented Sister Xiaorou is..."

Yi Yun knew that Jiang Xiaorou came from an extraordinary background; surely her talent was far superior to his own?

If Jiang Xiaorou is able to protect herself in the future, Yi Yun will feel much more at ease.

"Yun'er, I'll listen to you."

Jiang Xiaorou and said softly, "In the past, I always made decisions for Yi Yun, but now that he's grown up, Jiang Xiaorou 'm starting to let Yi Yun make decisions for me."

"But don't let it affect your own cultivation," Jiang Xiaorou added. She knew that cultivation required a lot of resources, and if she wanted to cultivate, she would have to take away Yi Yun's resources.

"No, that won't happen." Yi Yun smiled. "Come on, Sister Xiaorou, I'll take you back to the village!"

During the short time Yi Yun was gone, the entire Lian Clan stood at the village entrance waiting for Yi Yun to return.

When Jiang Xiaorou rode the Unicorn Giant Rhinoceros back to the village, she saw that all five or six thousand Lian Clan were there. For a moment, Jiang Xiaorou was stunned.

Such a scene is not even seen during village-wide festivals.

The entire clan of five or six thousand people, including the usually aloof Clan Elder, looked at Jiang Xiaorou with very complicated expressions.

The village girls were incredibly envious of Jiang Xiaorou; how could she have such a wonderful younger brother?

In the future, if Jiang Xiaorou follows Yi Yun, wouldn't she live a life of luxury, moving in and out of high society? They wouldn't even dare to dream of such a life.

As for those villains who had bullied Jiang Xiaorou in the past, they were all terrified at this moment, like mice frightened by a Jiang Xiaorou in front of her.

Those kids who had thrown cow dung had long since shrunk into the crowd, not daring to even glance at Jiang Xiaorou. Their leader was still vomiting blood on the ground; what could they possibly do? They were now filled with regret for what they had done.

"Oh, Miss is back! You've worked so hard, Miss!"

Liu Tie still very attentive, and he even changed his address to "Miss" for Jiang Xiaorou. This almost made Jiang Xiaorou not realize that he was calling her that.

"Sister Xiaorou!" Zhou Xiaoke ran over and threw herself into Jiang Xiaorou's arms.

Jiang Xiaorou and Zhou Xiaoke had always had a good relationship. The separation of the two for one or two months was so intense that it could not be described as a life-or-death separation. When their home was burned down and Jiang Xiaorou ran away from home, Zhou Xiaoke really thought that Jiang Xiaorou would never come back.

A girl running away to the Great Wilderness is tantamount to suicide.

Seeing Jiang Xiaorou standing there unharmed, Zhou Xiaoke couldn't stop her tears.

They're all back, Brother Yi Yun and Sister Xiaorou. They're both safe and sound, and things will only get better from now on.

Jiang Xiaorou's eyes were also red-rimmed as she stroked Zhou Xiaoke's little head. She felt a mix of relief and emotion. She hadn't lost anything she cared about. The feeling of not losing anything was truly wonderful.

The two little girls hugged for a long time before separating. Jiang Xiaorou looked around at the crowd and asked Yi Yun, "Yun'er... what are you doing?"

"Distributing the grain!" Yi Yun chuckled.

The grain brought back by the Brocade Dragon Guard naturally had to be distributed.

The Unicorn Giant Rhinoceros's food supply is limited. It seems like a lot, but the Lian Clan has a large population, with a thousand households and several thousand people. The amount of food needed by so many people is not a small amount.

The grain that Yi Yun brought was actually not enough to go around.

Therefore, Yi Yun's method of distribution is very clear: the distribution of grain depends entirely on personal preference, good people get more, and bad people stand aside!

Seeing Yi Yun standing in the center of the square, with a large pile of grain and meat in front of him, the Clan Elder the Lian Clan twitched.

Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river!

Back then, when Yi Yun was being distributed grain, he got into a fight with the Warrior Reserve Camp over a small bag of coarse grain. He almost got beaten up, and then Lian Chengyu Yi Yun Lian Chengyu. If it weren't for Purple Crystal, he would have lost his life.

But today...

Those who tried to kill Yi Yun back then are now crippled and won't live much longer. The power to distribute the grain is now completely in Yi Yun's hands; he can distribute it however he wants!

These Clan Elder were all bitter inside. They had already anticipated the outcome of this grain distribution; they, the former ruling class, would definitely not receive much...

"Aunt Wang, Uncle Zhou, Xiao Ke!" Yi Yun waved to Aunt Wang and Zhou Xiaoke, "This grain is for you."

Yi Yun picked out five heavy bags of grain, three bags of vegetables, and several skinned and cleaned wild animals, and gave them directly to Aunt Wang.

Such a generous pile of grain made others envious and jealous. With this, Aunt Wang's family would no longer have to drink porridge. They could eat fragrant white rice, boiled meat, and stir-fried vegetables every day. It was simply paradise on earth.

Aunt Wang was beaming with joy, and Zhou Xiaoke's face was flushed as she held Yi Yun's hand tightly, completely overjoyed.

"Uncle Sun, this is for you..." Based on his memory, Yi Yun distributed some grain to the more charitable families, and these people all beamed with joy upon receiving the grain.

However, after Yi Yun transmigrated, he lost all his memories from before the age of twelve. He had never met most of the Lian Clan and didn't know whether they were good or bad. He would have to ask Zhou Xiaoke Yi Yun Jiang Xiaorou that.

They said if someone was a good person, they would be given food; if someone was wicked and bullied the villagers, they would be told to get as far away as possible.

"What do you think of this man?" Yi Yun asked, pointing to a man who had just come up to collect his rations. The man seemed a little nervous.

"Brother Yi Yun, he's a good person," Zhou Xiaoke said.

"Hmm." Yi Yun nodded. Liu Tie distributed the grain without him having to lift a finger.

"What about this one?" Yi Yun asked again. The person being asked was a thin man who forced a smile and looked at Zhou Xiaoke with a fawning expression, like a lapdog.

But Zhou Xiaoke ignored her and said with disgust, "Brother Yi Yun, that person is called Zhou Chang. He's a really bad person. He used to bully other families, and he even bullied Sister Zhao!"

Zhou Xiaoke showed no mercy. Zhou Chang, who was called out by Zhou Xiaoke, turned green with rage. He opened his mouth but didn't dare to utter a single word in rebuttal.

It's true what they say, fortunes change, and he never imagined he'd be defeated by a young girl.

"Damn it, what are you standing here for? Don't make me lay a hand on you, get out of here!" Liu Tie said, rolling up his sleeves and cursing.

"Young Master Yi, I... I don't have... not even a little bit?" Zhou Chang squeezed his face, trying to make himself look more pitiful.

"Young Master Yi it! You think you can talk to Young Master Yi like that? Get the hell out of here! There's not enough food for the good people, do you think you can have any left for bad people like you? Dream on!"

Liu Tie kicked Zhou Chang, his face full of disdain. He completely forgot that he himself had never been a good person.

Zhou Chang was kicked so hard by Liu Tie that he was scrambling to his death. Yi Yun didn't care much about it. Those who bullied the villagers relied on trickery and plunder, and their families usually had much more grain than others. With grass roots and wild vegetables, they were just enough to keep themselves from starving.

The villagers lined up, each one on edge, fearing that they might have inadvertently offended the two little girls beside Yi Yun in the past, which would have been the end for them.

They now hold everyone's fate in their hands. If the two little girls nod, they're happy. If they shake their heads, they'd better get lost to avoid Liu Tie, that lackey, taking action.

With Yi Yun backing up the two little girls, they were the village's little princesses, and everyone looked at them with utmost awe. The local bullies and the soldiers in the Warrior Reserve Camp were all as docile as chicks at this moment. In front of Yi Yun, even dragons had to coil up and tigers had to lie down. Besides, they weren't dragons or tigers at all; they were just monkeys jumping around.

The grain has been distributed, and some families are happy while others are sad.

That evening, wisps of smoke rose from the chimneys of many houses. Bathed in the setting sun, the smoke drifted like clouds against the blue sky.

The long-lost aroma of rice, the bright red roasted pork, families scrambling to eat, laughter echoing through the fields—truly a heartwarming rural scene.

This is the most primal joy, and also the most blissful and fulfilling.
