Fang Mofei stared for a long time, unable to catch his breath. What amused Yun Yang was that this Great Swordsman Fang had fainted with his eyes wide open.
His body was too weak after all. Under the intense shock, he couldn't take it anymore. So, he fainted in embarrassment …
"Why is it that when people interact with others, they always have to think of ways to gain a psychological advantage?" Yun Yang murmured.
Fang Mofei had used his intelligence to find out Yun Yang's identity when he could not move. He had wanted to gain the upper hand. What Yun Yang was going to say next was also to gain a psychological advantage!
In the yard.
Ji Ling had already walked out with the Silvermoon Celestial Wolf. The tiny, snow-white Silvermoon Celestial Wolf followed behind her, tumbling all over the place.
It was obvious that it was very dependent on her.
"These children of noble families are extraordinary indeed." Yun Yang looked out the window and thought to himself, "It's only been a night and they've made the Silvermoon Celestial Wolf, who is known to be rebellious and wary of others, feel a sense of belonging."
"Yun Yang!" Ji Ling called out from the yard, "These cats of yours are strange."
Yun Yang looked at the cowering Silvermoon Celestial Wolf in the yard, then at the four Eclipse Panthers lying on the ground, snoring. The corners of his mouth twitched.
Yun Yang went out.
Looking at Ji Ling who seemed to have reverted to her original self, Yun Yang smiled faintly. He could feel the difference in Ji Ling after she had readjusted her mentality during this period of time.
It was a faint sense of alienation.
Two different worlds …
Yun Yang smiled inwardly and walked out as if nothing had happened. "What is it?"
"Why doesn't my wolf dare to go over?" Ji Ling asked.
"Wolves are social animals and are used to moving around in packs. This one is small, has no companions and has never battled before. It would be strange if it dares to go over when facing five cats of similar size." Yun Yang rolled his eyes.
"Then how do you plan to help me win?" Ji Ling asked.
"That is a secret." Yun Yang said lazily, "I can only guarantee your victory. Also, you have to promise me that you will not go back on your word."
Ji Ling rolled her eyes and said, "You are so stingy. Alright, I'll remember it! "
Looking at the young Silvermoon Celestial Wolf, Yun Yang squatted down and beckoned, "Little fellow, come here."
"It won't listen to you so easily." Ji Ling smiled. "I spent a lot of effort yesterday …"
Before he could finish his sentence, he was suddenly dumbfounded.
The tiny Silvermoon Celestial Wolf suddenly straightened its body and looked at Yun Yang, its tail wagging like a puppy. Then, it sprinted towards Yun Yang like an arrow.
It was even purring excitedly.
Ji Ling was stunned.
This is too infuriating!
He had worked so hard to please her, and even took out his most precious elixirs. Finally, the little fellow had changed from being indifferent to being somewhat affectionate.
But this guy just hooked his finger, and the little guy actually ran over happily as if he had seen his own mother.
There was no justice in this world!
Yun Yang carried the Silvermoon Celestial Wolf, his right hand gently caressing its back. Then, with a flutter, he flipped the small body over and dangled it in the air with only its left front paw in his hand.
He even shook it forcefully.
"What are you doing!" Ji Ling shrieked and was about to rush forward. How dare you play with such a small cub? You could kill it if you used too much force.
The little Silvermoon Celestial Wolf howled excitedly, shaking its head and tail happily while being held by one paw.
Yun Yang tossed it into the air like a ball. His right hand stretched out, grabbing its right front paw and swinging it in the air.
Ji Ling was speechless.
The ball-like wolf cub flew in the air again, its left rear paw …
It flew again … its right rear paw …
Then it flew again … its neck …
Ji Ling was about to go crazy. This is a wolf! Not a cat! What do you mean by grabbing the back of its neck and swinging it around like this?
Ji Ling could clearly hear the bones in the wolf cub's body cracking.
"My little wolf cub …" Ji Ling's eyes were red from heartache.
Finally, she saw Yun Yang toss the wolf cub into the air again. This time, he grabbed its tail and shook it violently. The wolf cub shrieked and danced excitedly. Its four snow-white hooves clawed wildly in the air.
It was so lively!
"Yun Yang!" Ji Ling could not bear it any longer. "Are you playing tricks with my wolf cub?"
Yun Yang turned his head and smiled. "Can't you see that this little fellow is going crazy with joy?"
Ji Ling was speechless.
"Alright." Yun Yang said, "Leave your Little Bei Xi with me for two days. You can take it to the competition after two days. If you can't win then, I'll do whatever you want me to do. Of course, if you win, you have to fulfill the conditions you promised me. "
Ji Ling could not help but sigh. "Do you have to keep talking about conditions?"
Yun Yang said with a smile, "It's better to be practical."
Ji Ling was deep in thought.
After a long time, she carried the Thousand Illusion Monkey back to the room.
Yun Yang smiled as he carried the wolf cub into the room.
Patting the little wolf cub's head, he said, "I know you understand, little guy. Hmm, that's it. Today, you helped your master win, so I'll give you another round as a reward. Do you understand? "
The wolf cub looked at Yun Yang with sparkling eyes and wagged its tail.
"You don't understand?"
Yun Yang's expression darkened. He grabbed the wolf cub by the scruff of its neck and picked it up like a rag. "Do you understand? Carry it again if you win. Do you understand? "
The wolf cub blinked twice with its sparkling eyes. Suddenly, it raised its left front paw and lifted it up. Then, it raised its right front paw and lifted both its hind hooves. It turned around and faced Yun Yang with its butt, its tail raised high.
Putting it down, it hopped twice to indicate that it wanted to be picked up and shaken. Then, it looked at Yun Yang with sparkling eyes. "…?"
"Yes!" Yun Yang was exasperated.
"Awooo …" The wolf cub howled in delight.
The conditions had been met.
Yun Yang heaved a sigh of relief. The intelligence of mystical beasts was not low after all.
However, this Silvermoon Celestial Wolf's intelligence had exceeded Yun Yang's expectations. Looking at the wolf's clear eyes, Yun Yang murmured, "This can't be the descendant of the alpha wolf, can it? This girl's luck shouldn't be this good …"
…
"May I ask if Young Master Yun Yang is at home?" A booming voice came from outside.
Lao Mei stood up in response, "Who is it?"
The voice outside replied, "Please inform Young Master Yun Yang that Ximen Wandai of the Ximen Family, Dongfang Mingtian of the Dongfang Family, Nangong Bubai of the Nangong Family, and Beiye Qingkong of the Beiye Family are here to visit."
Lao Mei's expression changed.
Ximen Wandai, Dongfang Mingtian, Nangong Bubai, and Beiye Qingkong.
East, South, West, and North.
Perhaps, these four names were not very famous. At least, Lao Mei had never heard of them before. However, these four surnames were too shocking!
Four of the eight pinnacle families!
The one who had bet with the young master was Ximen Wandai. Ximen Wandai was the young master of the Ximen Family. Thus, Dongfang Mingtian, Nangong Bubai, and Beiye Qingkong must be the young masters of the other three families.
Although they might not be the backbone of the direct line of descent, their identities were still superior.
With a wave of Yun Yang's hand, the five kittens obediently made their way to the east wing.
"Invite the four young masters in." Yun Yang said, "Tea will be served in the parlor."
The parlor was, of course, the pavilion under the pergola in Yun Yang's courtyard.
Shadows of flowers danced in the breeze, their fragrance permeating the ground.
Yun Yang held the teapot with one hand and said in a composed manner, "It is my honor to have the four young masters grace my humble dwelling with your presence. This is the spring tea that I have just received this year. It is harvested from the peak of a snowy mountain, amidst the snowstorm and fog. The tender shoots of the ivy must be plucked when they are covered in a thin layer of frost, dried in the shade on the cold mountain, and roasted in a cool place. After three times of steaming and three times of drying, it is placed in the ice cave of the cold mountain to absorb the spiritual and icy air. Then, it is dried at high temperature and immediately becomes tea. Only this tea can't be kept for long, it can only be kept for a month. Otherwise, the cold air will return and the tea will be wasted! "
The translucent emerald tea in Yun Yang's teapot gushed out like a round jade and fell into the teacup, solidifying into a crystal-clear piece of jade. The surface of the tea was foggy, as if it was a dream.
"This tea is called Snow of the Cold Mountain." Yun Yang raised his cup and smiled, "Please, please serve the tea."
The four noble young masters had arrived at the Residence of Yun, but before they could even say a word, they were instilled with the art of tea. Furthermore, it was explained in a logical and logical manner, making it rather captivating.
Tasting this cup of tea, they were filled with mixed feelings.
In the west wing, Ji Ling watched from the window and sighed inwardly. She could vaguely feel that among the five people drinking tea in the parlor, Yun Yang, who was the weakest and had the least ability, was more like an elite of a noble family.
That elegance, that bearing, that composure … it was many levels higher than the four noble young masters in front of her!
It was simply incomparable.
Ji Ling thought about it carefully. It seemed that even the backbone of the eight noble families, the direct heirs … might not have Yun Yang's elegance and composure!
That was the calmness in his bones!
"Young Master Yun is indeed elegant. Good composure. " Dongfang Mingtian drank the cup of tea that he could not taste and smiled faintly, "No wonder Brother Ximen lost to you."
Hatred flashed in Ximen Wandai's eyes as he smiled faintly, "A bet is a bet. Young Master Yun's victory is a testament to your ability, and I accept my loss wholeheartedly."
Yun Yang smiled warmly, "Young Master Ximen is too courteous, I was just lucky. Besides, Young Master Ximen's magnanimity and easygoing manner have impressed me greatly. Ever since that day, I have always wanted to meet Young Master Ximen and befriend you. "
As he said this, Ximen Wandai's expression relaxed a lot.
"Of course, all of you young masters are as famous as Young Master Ximen, I would very much like to befriend you as well," Yun Yang said sincerely.
No matter how disdainful the young masters were, they looked much better and the atmosphere became harmonious.
Perhaps, among all these people, only Ji Ling, who was eavesdropping from the window, understood the true meaning behind Yun Yang's words: I really hope to befriend all of you, so that I can get more benefits from you all …
Looking at Yun Yang's sincere expression and the young masters' humble words, Ji Ling almost burst out laughing.
She felt more and more that these noble young masters were incomparable to Yun Yang, the young master of a secular country's Marquis!
It was strange indeed.
These elites of noble families had received strict education since they were young and every word and action had been specially trained, yet they were not as composed and scheming as Yun Yang!
