"Uh?" Ye Xiao opened his eyes in surprise. The slim and beautiful figure in front of him had already disappeared. He could only hear a shameful shout from outside, "Little Soybean! Let's go! I don't want to stay in this glib-tongued person's house … "
Soon after, it trotted off into the distance.
Ye Xiao heard the guard say something, and then it was silent.
"That's right … What does it have to do with you? What I said has nothing to do with you … "Ye Xiao rubbed his head and murmured," Why did she suddenly run away so shamefully … What happened? "
He rubbed his head and felt confused. He murmured, "Women … I really don't know what they are thinking …"
The steward came in hurriedly and saw that Ye-Yue had left. He felt relieved and grabbed Ye Xiao, "My lord, the people of the Mu Clan have arrived outside the capital! They are holding a blood sacrifice at the south gate. It is said that … there are 77 white flags! 22 blood flags! "
Ye Xiao was surprised, "Blood sacrifice? White flags? Blood flags? What the hell is that? "
The steward was anxious, "You don't know? That is 99! 77 white flags represent mourning and 22 blood flags represent fighting to the death! There are 99 flags in total, which means there is no way to resolve it! No matter how long it takes, they will fight to the death! "
Ye Xiao rolled his eyes, "So what?"
The steward was speechless.
Ye Xiao stretched himself, "Go to sleep … Fighting to the death sounds so scary. I am so sleepy … I am so scared … I have to go to sleep and hide for a while."
The steward was stunned as he watched his young master leave. He felt speechless and was thinking whether he should disregard the fact that they were master and servant and beat him up first. However, Ye Xiao had already closed the door. After a while, he seemed to be snoring …
"I really …" The steward opened his mouth helplessly and didn't say anything. He just stomped his feet and left.
…
That night.
The steward of the House of Ye didn't sleep at all.
Meanwhile, the capital was suddenly plunged into chaos.
Nobody knew that there was a pair of clear and calm eyes in the vast bamboo woods, which was paying attention to all the movements in the capital city.
As if the owls were returning to their nests, the birds flew back to the bamboo forest from all directions. For a moment, the silent bamboo forest fell into a rare hustle and bustle.
The white-robed youth waved his hand and didn't make any sound, but the flock of birds all gathered above his head and circled around.
Not only did they hover, but many of the birds also landed on his hand in an orderly manner. It was truly a spectacular sight. Hence, one after another, small wax pellets landed on his palm.
"Young Master, you should rest early. Leave these things to me and Miss Xiu, "a white-clothed girl quietly walked over, and advised in a gentle voice.
"When I can do it myself, it's better to do it myself." The white-robed youth smiled gently. "Wan 'er, the two of you must be tired after all these years. Take a break and relax once in a while. Don't worry, this little thing won't tire me out. Doing some work is also a way for me to train myself. It's beneficial and harmless. "
Wan 'er smiled. "As long as you are with us, we won't be tired. It is reasonable that you want to train yourself, but your legs … We are really worried about them. "
The white-robed youth smiled quietly. "It is an unavoidable disaster. When I get through it, it will be fine. Right now, it is time for me to train myself. This period of time concerns my future achievements. Don't worry. I will be fine. I have already let it go. I really have! "
"Hmm." Wan 'er's beautiful face showed a gentle smile. Finally, she put the cotton cloak on the white-robed youth.
When she was about to leave, she heard the white-robed youth murmur, "Wan 'er, don't you think the name Ye Xiao is weird?"
"Weird?" Wan 'er frowned.
The white-robed youth's question was indeed weird. Especially the way he phrased it. He actually used the word 'weird'!
"You don't know. This name is quite interesting." The white-robed youth blandly smiled and said thoughtfully, "What a pity …"
He raised his eyes and looked at the sky far away through the bamboo forest. After a while, he sighed, "What a pity!"
"Pity?" Wan 'er was surprised. She opened her eyes wide and asked.
The white-robed youth didn't say anything. He just concentrated on reading the information.
"The first storm in the capital is coming."
"This is the first storm in my life …"
The white-robed youth murmured, "Who will stay with me in the storm of the world?"
A sense of loneliness that came from the bottom of his heart appeared between his brows.
There was coldness in it.
It's lonely at the top.
And then he said, "Tell the nine men in black to pay attention to the House of Ye. If anything happens, don't show mercy! "
Wan 'er answered and then flew away.
…
It was going to be an eventful night.
There were many people entering the Chen-Xing City from all directions!
People from the great sects all entered the city in a low profile. There were some independent cultivators in the martial world and some overlords who entered the city quietly.
The House of Ye was heavily guarded.
After Su Ye-Yue returned, eight guards from the Palace of Hua-Yang came over to guard the House of Ye.
The steward was ready to fight. He actually had a strange-looking saber on his body.
The thirty-six blood guards looked at each other in a weird way. Their faces were always expressionless, but now they were all moved.
How many years had it been since they last saw the saber of the God of Slaughter? It seemed that tonight … was going to be an eventful night.
The last bit of light in the sky suddenly disappeared. What followed was the darkness of the night.
The entire royal city was covered in the darkness of the night.
However, it was different tonight. There was an invisible power that was gradually spreading and filling the entire royal city.
That night, even the ordinary people seemed to feel this invisible pressure. They all closed their doors and went to bed early.
Although the Imperial Guards did not know the reason, but because of a certain feeling that they had no proof, they could not help but feel as if they were facing a great enemy and were extra careful.
It was late at night.
There was no sound in Ye Xiao's room. Even the snoring had stopped. It seemed that Ye Xiao had fallen asleep.
The steward sighed and murmured, "He actually fell asleep? My young master, should I say that you are calm and have the demeanor of a great general … Or should I say that you are heartless and just eat and wait for death? Sigh … "
For the first time, he had a feeling that he couldn't see through this foppish young master of his.
Sometimes he was smart and could adapt to the situation. He seemed to have a brilliant mind, but most of the time he was just a foppish young master, an idiot, a complete idiot!
In the night sky, there was an unusual sound of wind.
The steward was standing on the roof of the House of Ye. He saw a few shadows flying over from different directions.
In the darkness of the night, the white sash on the person's waist was not only eye-catching, but also somewhat dazzling.
The steward couldn't help but squint his eyes.
He felt that the white belt was extremely dazzling.
The crown prince had considered the balance of the court and the fight for the throne, so he had suppressed his own actions. However, this matter was completely handled by the Mu Clan. For the Ye Clan, it was even more troublesome.
The men sent by the Mu Clan were obviously lunatics. They didn't even consider whether Ye Xiao was the one who killed Mu Cheng-Bai. They didn't care whether Ye Xiao had the ability to kill Mu Cheng-Bai or not.
They didn't care about any suspicious points.
All they wanted was to kill Ye Xiao first!
This was simply too unreasonable.
What was even more unreasonable was that they had started to move. Apparently, they were going to turn this idea into a reality!
The steward was angry. The men who had come tonight had proved it. The Mu Clan had been in a high position for too long. They had truly treated everyone else as ants and could kill them as they pleased …
There were two shadows flying over from the north, south, east, and west. They were about to step on the wall of the House of Ye.
The steward shouted, "Who are you? Stop right there! The territory of the House of Ye is not to be disrespected! "
A creepy laughter sounded. The man from the north said, "Where is that foppish young master? Get that Ye Xiao out to die! Today, we'll just treat it as a midnight snack. "
Suddenly, there was a burst of ear-piercing laughter.
For the Mu Clan, one of the eight noble clans, it was a piece of cake for them to deal with the General's House in the capital. They didn't care about it at all.
Although the men who had come might not be the main force of the Mu Clan, Mu Cheng-Bai wasn't qualified to send the main force of the Mu Clan to avenge him. However, these men in front of them were enough for them to run amok for a while.
The steward's eyes were filled with anger. He said coldly, "Are you here to have a midnight snack? But to have a midnight snack in the House of Ye, you need good teeth. If you accidentally break your own teeth, it will not be worth it! "
The creepy voice said, "My teeth are very good. It is just the General's House in the North. What could they possibly have that could break my teeth?" He waved his hand and shouted, "Go in and get my midnight snack!"
"Yes, sir!" The seven men answered at the same time.
The next moment, the seven men became seven bright sword lights in the night sky. The bright sword lights cut through the night sky and quickly flew towards the General's House.
The steward's pupils shrank and he shouted, "Stop them!"
The thirty-six Blood Guards had been waiting for a long time. They answered at the same time and were about to fly out and start the bloody battle!
Their opponents were members of the famous Mu clan. Even if they weren't the core members of the Mu clan, they were still a force to be reckoned with. They didn't have much confidence in winning this battle, but even so, not a single one of them retreated!
