Chapter 474 Acting is Useless

After moving into the Shangxun Heavenly Master Pavilion, Wang Chen had all the servants, maids, and guards in the estate cleared out.

Then, through the Xi Family, he recruited a new batch of people to come in.

Though this resulted in a dramatic increase in the Xi Family's influence over the Shangxun Heavenly Master Pavilion,

it came with the risk of being undermined.

But Wang Chen didn't care, for he would stay in Dayi City for at most three years before he inevitably had to return to his Sect.

Whether the Xi Family had any ambition was irrelevant to the greater scheme of things, as long as they were extremely respectful to him for the time being, that was enough.

The Old Gardener hoeing the garden undoubtedly was also assigned by the Xi Family.

The man appeared very old, with white hair and a face full of deep wrinkles that silently told of the mercilessness of time; his coarse skin and cracked hands further proved he was a genuine farmer.
