Chapter 1771 - 1772: Qingcheng Mountain’s Second Elder
The second day of the first month is a good day for visiting friends and relatives and offering New Year’s greetings.Dragon Domain Villa was bustling with visitors!
Families from the East Sea came to deliver gifts.
A thousand households from the Jianghai Region gathered to offer New Year’s greetings.
Even the Li Family and Leng Family from the distant Yanzi City, as well as some families unfamiliar to Ye Xuan, sent representatives to greet and deliver gifts.
Power and wealth, fame and fortune, all are expressed without words!
However, Ye Xuan knew that today’s grandeur was an illusion, because aside from prominent families from the Jianghai Region, and a few affluent families like the Leng Family and Qiu Family, most prestigious families from Yan Country still did not visit.
Not even a greeting call.
This equates to a stance, and is a form of distrust.
It is evident that in the eyes of most prestigious families, Ye Xuan’s glory won’t last long. They firmly believe that it won’t be long before Ye Xuan is crushed by the Martial Arts Zhao Family.
Like ants before a lion, powerless to resist!
Ye Xuan didn’t care about this.
The splendid welcomes false spectators, while dusk witnesses true believers!
...
The third day of the first month.
Ye Xuan dismissed many representatives from prestigious families who came to offer New Year’s greetings, arranged the pile of gifts that almost filled a room, and began to set out to offer his own greetings.
Naturally, Ye Xuan couldn’t reciprocate every gesture.
So... he only visited relatives of the Su Family, being somewhat indulgent.
...
The seventh day of the first month.
The last day of Yan Country’s official holiday.
The New Year’s atmosphere gradually faded, with laughter diminishing and sighs increasing, because people from all walks of life were about to return to their posts and resume their daily monotonous lives.
But Ye Xuan was different.
To him, New Year’s or otherwise made little difference. Even during this national holiday, Leng Qiuge and Liu Ying stayed at home every day, so his benefits were even greater than usual.
In just seven days, seven days!
Ye Xuan actually lost three pounds!
What’s the concept behind this?
It can only be said that with Ye Xuan’s current strength and cultivation, even if trapped between a mountain of knives and a sea of flames, staying sleepless and foodless for seven days and nights, he would at most lose three pounds...
"Women are all big pig trotters; it’s terrifying!"
Once again toppled by the Dual Swordsmanship of the two women, Ye Xuan weakly supported his waist and staggered out of the room to the balcony for some fresh air.
No choice, life comes first.
Ever since the first time, these two women, playing Dual Swordsmanship, seemingly got addicted and did it every so often. As they were still in the room, how could Ye Xuan dare to stay long?
It’s still nice to have a wife; a wife never drains him...
So, missing his dear wife, Ye Xuan decisively went to the balcony because he knew Lin Tong was watching the night view from there.
Accompanying Lin Tong were little Cloud and Chiba Sakurako.
Seeing Ye Xuan ascend the stairs supporting his waist, looking so weak he might topple with a gust of wind, Chiba Sakurako’s pretty face slightly changed, and she hurried up to assist: "Ye Ge, what’s wrong? Why... why are you like this again? Are you okay?"
Ye Xuan tugged at the corners of his mouth, Sakurako, your use of the word ’again’ is truly clever!
However, Lin Tong glanced at Ye Xuan with no sympathy at all: "Hmph, you reap what you sow, you deserve it."
What could Ye Xuan say? He had no power to rebut.
"I’m fine, I’ll feel better after a while."
Ye Xuan waved his hand and, under Chiba Sakurako’s support, sat beside Lin Tong.
Lin Tong frowned slightly and shifted her position to intentionally create some distance between her and Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan felt pained; wasn’t it just the mixed fragrance of Leng Qiuge and Liu Ying on him? It’s not the first time, is it necessary?
Forget it, no point arguing with big pig trotters.
Taking a couple of deep breaths, Ye Xuan alleviated his body’s weakness before speaking: "Honey, tomorrow I need to go to Yanzi City with Liu Ying. In the coming days, you must take good care of yourself."
Lin Tong was surprised at this: "Going to Yanzi City?"
Ye Xuan nodded and said with a smile: "The Martial Arts assembly is officially starting in a week. Before that, I need to go to Yanzi City for some things."
Lin Tong understood, pursing her lips and nodding: "Hmm, got it."
Ye Xuan smiled and didn’t say much more.
He looked up at the sky.
Over this period, the Liu Family... have indeed been living too comfortably.
...
The eighth day of the first month, Yanzi City!
The bitter wind blew, snow flying everywhere!
A young couple emerged from the airport.
The man, with unremarkable looks yet distinctly contoured features, feels no cold even in this snowy weather, wearing a lightweight Liu outfit.
His eyebrows resemble swords, radiating extraordinary poise.
The woman, stunningly beautiful, alluring yet not vulgar, charming but not debased, and even under the protection of a mink coat, her amazingly graceful figure faintly shows.
Peerless beauty, unmatched in the world.
Ye Xuan.
Liu Ying.
Their appearance attracted a lot of attention from around the airport.
But for these astonishing gazes, Ye Xuan and Liu Ying were clearly accustomed and paid no heed.
Liu Ying glanced at the sky and smiled saying: "Just received the news, people from Martial Arts Qingcheng Mountain just arrived in Yanzi City. Tonight, nearly everyone from the Liu Family will hold a welcoming banquet for the Qingcheng Mountain people."
After annexing the Wang Family’s power, Liu Qiankun had already moved the Liu Family’s lair to Yanzi City, displacing them.
Ye Xuan raised an eyebrow: "Who?"
Liu Ying replied: "The second elder of Qingcheng Mountain, Luo Fuqing."
Ye Xuan was surprised by this, then became relieved.
Ye Xuan naturally knew of Luo Fuqing from Qingcheng Mountain.
This person, although the second elder of Qingcheng Mountain, has unmatched skills, surpassed only by the Sect Leader in the entire Qingcheng Mountain. Legend had it even Chen Yue, who died on Canglang Island, couldn’t survive ten moves against him.
And that was ten years ago.
In ten years, with unequal talent, the gap in their strength could only widen. Now Luo Fuqing, might easily settle Cheng Yue with one move.
If not for his obsession with martial arts, not caring about anything else, the position of Great Elder wouldn’t have fallen to Cheng Yue.
Today, he appeared in Yanzi City!
What does this signify?
This represents that Qingcheng Mountain and Liu Family, those two great forces, already calculated that Ye Xuan would arrive in Yanzi City today.
They know what Ye Xuan intends to do.
But they don’t agree.
At the same time, they also want to take this opportunity to eliminate Ye Xuan!
After all, Luo Fuqing’s strength, even within the Martial Arts world, is an unfathomable figure, and...
Liu Ying frowned, speaking seriously: "Moreover, after previous lessons, tonight’s banquet won’t only have Luo Fuqing."
Indeed.
Whether Qingcheng Mountain or Liu Family, or even Zhao Family, Ghost King Valley, or Miaofa Assembly, any forces hostile to Ye Xuan aren’t fools.
Given the countless lessons learned, they recognize Ye Xuan’s danger. Either they don’t act, but if they do, they won’t act without adequate preparation.
