Just then, the chat panel started vibrating.
[Rin Tohsaka: @Lu Li, Lu Li-nii, I'm calling for you now!]
[Lu Li: Received.]
Rin Tohsaka began calling Lu Li's name: "Lu Li! Lu Li! Lu Li!..."
Because of the chat group, Lu Li had already regained consciousness.
He sensed someone calling him and activated his 'Strong Wind' ability.
A strong wind swirled around Lu Li's body, and then Lu Li lightly touched the ground with his toes and disappeared instantly in the strong wind.
Rin Tohsaka was afraid that Lu Li couldn't hear her, so she kept calling Lu Li's name.
call---!!
A tornado appeared out of nowhere, and Lu Li's figure instantly appeared in the tornado, his feet lightly landing on the ground.
"Brother Lu Li!!"
When Rin Tohsaka saw that Lu Li had actually appeared, she immediately ran over in surprise and hugged Lu Li's waist.
Although Lu Li had never met Rin Tohsaka, Rin Tohsaka had met Lu Li twice. Lu Li's display of great power in Erica's world left an extremely deep impression on Rin Tohsaka, and he had completely become her idol.
Lu Li patted Rin Tohsaka's head: "How is it?"
Rin Tohsaka then realized that this was not the time to chat with her idol: "The head of the Matou family has come to my house and is talking to my father right now. Sakura will be taken away soon."
"In that case, take me there."
At this moment, in the reception room, Tokiomi Tohsaka and Zouken Matou were talking.
Sakura was standing right in front of the two of them.
Tokiomi Tohsaka gave his daughter to Zouken Matou, naturally wanting to get enough benefits from Zouken Matou in return.
Zouken Matou agreed to all of Tokiomi Tohsaka's conditions without any intention of bargaining, which made their conversation go very smoothly.
Completely unaware that Sakura, standing in front of the two people, had turned pale.
Soon, all the conditions for the exchange were met.
Tokiomi Tohsaka said to Sakura, "Sakura, you heard it too. When you get there, the Matou family will do everything they can to raise you, and they might even let you inherit the Matou family's magic crest (addi). I know this might be a little cruel to a child like you, but you are my daughter, and you have extraordinary magical talent."
"If you stay in the Tohsaka family, your future may be unremarkable."
"I made this decision to adopt you into the Matou family not for any family benefit, but for your future."
"I hope my daughter will also be a magician that makes your mother, your sister, and me proud in the future. Do you understand?"
Sakura bit her lip. Deep down, she didn't want to become a powerful figure. If she could, she would rather not have this magical talent and be an ordinary person.
But she didn't want to disappoint her father.
He could only force a smile and say, "I understand, Father."
Tokiomi Tohsaka smiled with satisfaction, then looked at an old man who was hunchbacked, bald, and as thin as a mummy, with gloomy eyes.
This person is none other than the head of the Matou family, Matou Zouken.
“Head of the Matou family, I wish my daughter to be adopted. I do not want her to suffer any injustice.”
"Hehehe, don't worry, Head of the Tohsaka family, I will naturally keep my promise to you. I will treat her like my own granddaughter. She is the heir of the Matou family."
Tokiomi Tohsaka nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.
Zouken Matou approached Rin Tohsaka, extending his thin, mummy-like hand and saying, "Come on, come home with me."
Sakura, suppressing the urge to cry, reached out her hand.
Suddenly! A voice rang out.
"Stop!! Sakura, I will never leave with you!!"
Then Rin Tohsaka quickly ran over, pulled Sakura away, and shielded her behind her.
"elder sister!"
Zouken Matou's lips curled up slightly as he looked at Tokiomi Tohsaka. This was Tokiomi Tohsaka's family matter, and naturally, it was up to Tokiomi Tohsaka to resolve it.
Tokiomi Tohsaka frowned: "Rin, what are you doing? How can you behave like this in front of guests!"
Rin had been much quieter these past three days, not making a fuss at all. He thought Rin had given up, but he never expected her to cause trouble at this time.
"Father! Sakura cannot be adopted into the Matou family! I disagree!"
"This was agreed upon beforehand, and it's for Sakura's sake."
Zouken Matou chuckled, "Hehehe, if you don't want Sakura to be adopted, you can be adopted yourself."
He knew that Rin's talent was even greater than Sakura's.
Just then, a voice rang out: "She won't go with you."
Chapter 71 is too domineering!
Upon hearing this sound, everyone looked towards the door.
Then a handsome young man with silver-white hair, wearing a gray hoodie, appeared at the living room door.
Tokiomi Tohsaka frowned: "Who are you?"
He felt very uncomfortable that a stranger had suddenly come to his home, a breach of etiquette.
Rin Tohsaka quickly pulled Sakura behind Lu Li and said, "This is my master, Lu Li."
"Master? Rin, what are you talking about? You've always studied family magic, when did you get a master?"
"I understand. You want to find anyone to act as your master and then claim that you will be imprinted with the magic of inheritance."
"In that case, in order to pass on the family seal, I have no choice but to leave Sakura behind, right?"
Rin Tohsaka was stunned by Tokiomi Tohsaka's words. Her brilliant plan, which she had racked her brains to come up with, was seen through by her father at a glance.
No one knows a daughter better than her father; Rin Tohsaka's little tricks were no match for Tokiomi Tohsaka.
Tokiomi Tohsaka smiled and looked at Lu Li, saying, "Young man, although I don't know what benefits Rin promised you, it was just my daughter's youthful whims. Whatever benefits she promised, I can give you double."
Lu Li shook his head: "Xiao Lin didn't give me any benefits. In a way, I am indeed Xiao Lin's teacher."
Upon hearing Lu Li's words, Rin Tohsaka remembered that she had once purchased a magic spell from Lu Li, and could indeed be considered Lu Li's student.
She was more than willing to be Lu Li's student, after all, she had personally witnessed Lu Li kill gods, and he was far more powerful than her own father.
Zouken Matou watched this scene with great interest.
Tokiomi Tohsaka never expected that Riku would say such a thing.
"So, young man, what do you mean?"
“Xiao Lin told me that she doesn’t want to be separated from her younger sister, nor does she want her younger sister Ying to be adopted by another family. Since that’s the case, then we can do as she wishes.”
Lu Li seemed to be simply stating something that had already been decided.
"what?!"
Tokiomi Tohsaka, Zouken Matou, and Sakura were all taken aback by Lu Li's words.
Rin Tohsaka was extremely excited. As expected of Lu Li, he was so domineering. This was the real Lu Li!
Looking at it this way, my previous schemes and plans seemed incredibly narrow-minded.
"Young man, this is my family matter. Even if you are Rin's teacher, aren't you meddling a bit too much?"
Tokiomi Tohsaka is a man of elegance and respect for etiquette, but he was also getting a little annoyed by the other party's lack of tact.
Lu Li said calmly, "Xiao Lin's affairs are my affairs."
“Young man, I don’t know how Rin became my disciple. She’s just a child. Without my permission, her becoming a disciple is invalid.”
"I don't need anyone's permission to take on students."
"you……"
Tokiomi Tohsaka was truly on the verge of losing his composure at this point.
Rin Tohsaka clapped and cheered, but only after being glared at by Tokiomi Tohsaka did she obediently hide behind Lu Li.
Tokiomi Tohsaka resisted the urge to kick Lu Li out: "Boy, since you say you're Rin's teacher, then show some skill. My Tohsaka family is a prestigious family in the magic world, and Rin's talent is top-notch. I don't want just anyone to become Rin's teacher and waste her talent."
"Showing off our strength?"
"What? You're a magician too? I can sense that as a magician, you naturally have to demonstrate magic that makes people believe in it, so as not to mislead others. Rin is excellent, she is my excellent child. I would never hand her over to an ordinary person, let an ordinary person be her teacher. Those taught by ordinary people will eventually become ordinary themselves."
"No, I was just thinking about how to demonstrate my strength."
Lu Li glanced around as he spoke: "The things in this room must be very valuable. It wouldn't be good if they were all accidentally damaged."
Tokiomi Tohsaka was somewhat surprised to hear Lu Li's words, not expecting that Lu Li would actually agree: "In that case, please move to the courtyard, where there is plenty of space for you to perform your magic."
0 ···Requesting flowers··· ········
After speaking, Tokiomi Tohsaka glanced at Zouken Matou.
Zouken Matou chuckled, "Hehe, if you don't mind, I'd also like to see what kind of magic this boy can use."
I never expected to see such a good show when I came to the Tohsaka family.
Sakura said to Rin Tohsaka with some concern, "Sister, maybe we should just forget about it."
Rin Tohsaka, however, looked excited: "Don't be afraid! Sakura, as long as Lu Li is here, there's nothing to worry about. Let's hurry up, we'll finally be able to see Lu Li use magic with our own eyes. I'll take you to see the world."
Soon, everyone arrived at the Tohsaka family's courtyard.
The Tohsaka family, as landlords, are truly large landowners. Many businessmen who lease their land become incredibly wealthy and successful in their businesses, for reasons unknown.
Such a reputation spreads by word of mouth, and all wealthy people actually believe in feng shui.
Even though the Tohsaka family repeatedly increased the rent, these wealthy people were happy to accept it.
As a result, the Tohsaka family became extremely wealthy, making them one of the most prestigious and powerful families in Fuyuki City.
"Young man, there is enough space here for you to cast your spells."
Lu Li looked around at the beautiful scenery, and it was clear that every flower, tree, and shrub had been carefully pruned by workers.
"Fine, you can do it yourself. Use your magic to attack me; that way, you'll have a better chance to see my true strength, won't you?"
"What did you say?!"
Everyone except Rin Tohsaka was startled when they heard this.
Although Tokiomi Tohsaka wasn't particularly talented, he worked incredibly hard, making up for the lack of natural talent with his efforts. Combined with the Tohsaka family's magic crest, he became a very powerful magician.
"Young man, are you sure you know what you're saying?"
Lu Li smiled and said, "I know. Go ahead and attack. I also want to see how the magic passed down through generations of the Tohsaka family works."
Lu Li's arrogant tone angered Tokiomi Tohsaka: "Since that's the case, then I won't stand on ceremony. It's a magician's etiquette."
Chapter 72 Do you think you're qualified?
Tokiomi Tohsaka twirled his wand, and scorching flames were born on the ruby on the wand before being launched toward Lu Li.
call---!!
The raging flames engulfed Lu Li's body.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuah!!"
Lu Li let out a painful scream.
Sakura was so frightened that her face turned deathly pale.
Tokiomi Tohsaka scoffed, "So you're just an ordinary person after all? Such an ordinary person has no right to teach Rin."
Rin Tohsaka, however, was not worried at all. Instead, she shouted at Lu Li, "Brother Lu Li, stop joking! You've scared Sakura."
Lu Li's screams abruptly stopped. Amidst the raging flames, Lu Li smiled and said to Rin Tohsaka, "Well, well! You always have to cooperate a little, don't you?"
Tokiomi Tohsaka, Zouken Matou, and Sakura were all stunned by Lu Li's grinning face.
"One seven seven." Then, Lu Li opened his mouth and inhaled slightly, drawing all the flames around his body into his mouth.
