"Jiangnan... truly is a wonderful place..."
The Family Head of the Shen Family, Shen Yan, was sensing the rich spiritual energy outside the courtyard and felt utterly relaxed.
His father was a second-rank official at the Imperial Court, and he himself was the Jingzhao Governor. The Shen Family had cultivated their presence in the Capital City for many years and was considered an influential family. They had struggled for twenty years, and when father decided to let go, he was initially somewhat opposed.
But now, he no longer felt any opposition.
The essence of a Magician is their own strength; positions at the Imperial Court are merely means to secure more resources for one's family. Which millennial Sorcerer Family relies entirely on the Imperial Court nowadays? They serve the court for more resources when the Imperial Court thrives and withdraw to preserve their power when it declines. All families that have lasted for a thousand years operate this way, don't they?
