"Alright, leave him to me. The three of you return to Flying Tiger City quickly. Don't let the other three families take advantage of this!"
Chief Steward Zhou said.
The ancestors of the eight families were sworn brothers, but as time passed, this relationship slowly widened.
It was also because of this that the eight families were not united and were scheming against each other.
Although Flying Tiger City was only a small city and was the closest to the Land of the Dead, the Zhou family only had seven Manifestation Realm experts stationed in Flying Tiger City.
This time, the Land of the Dead changed, so the four families of Zhou, Wu, Zheng, and Wang discussed and sent five experts to destroy the Land of the Dead.
As for why Flying Tiger City sent twenty Manifestation Realm experts, it was also because of the appearance of the Eye of Death.
The Eye of Death attracted the aura of the entire Land of the Dead. Flying Tiger City was very close to the Land of the Dead, so they sent so many people.
After leaving Ye Xuan behind, Zhou Kai and the other two left directly. However, after some time, they would hand over all their belongings to Zhou Kai and let him hide them in a specific place.
"Young man, with your strength, you can get a steward position in my Zhou family. If you work hard in the future, you will be rewarded."
Chief Steward Zhou brought Ye Xuan into the Zhou family and explained some things to Ye Xuan at the same time.
"Chief Steward, I have some questions, but I don't know if I can ask."
Ye Xuan, who was following behind the Chief Steward, suddenly spoke.
"Go ahead."
"It's like this. When my father died, he left a strange parchment. He said it was a treasure map somewhere in the Glazed Light Sacred Ground. So I want to ask if our Zhou family has a map of the Glazed Light Sacred Ground?"
Ye Xuan told the lie that he had made up beforehand.
"Glazed Light Sacred Ground, treasure map?"
Chief Steward Zhou heard this and couldn't help but stop in his tracks. He said, "Let me see it."
Originally, this kind of thing couldn't be taken out for others to see, but this parchment was casually drawn by Ye Xuan. It was quite a treasure map, so he immediately took it out.
Chief Steward Zhou glanced at it but could not see anything wrong with it. After all, even he could not understand Ye Xuan's drawing, let alone him.
"The treasure map of the Glazed Light Holy Land is useless because our trans-realm teleportation array has been sealed. Every time we activate it, we need a large number of soul crystals. Furthermore, our Zhou Family doesn't have a map of the Glazed Light Holy Land. "
The Chief Steward of the Zhou Family shook his head.
"Is that so?"
Ye Xuan asked in his heart. He felt that there was something wrong with this head steward of the Zhou family.
Perhaps, the Zhou Clan had a map of the Glazed Light Sacred Ground, but the Zhou Clan's Chief Steward had concealed it. Perhaps, Zhou Clan's Chief Steward had a place where he could get a map of the Glazed Light Sacred Ground.
"Young man, you won't be able to reach the Glazed Light Sacred Ground. Why don't you give this treasure map to me? Although I can't go to the Glazed Light Sacred Ground, I like to collect these things."
Chief Steward Zhou smiled at Ye Xuan and continued, "Don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly."
"I see …"
Ye Xuan pretended to hesitate. After thinking for a while, he nodded painfully. "Alright."
"Alright, then I'll kindly accept it."
Chief Steward Zhou was very happy and directly put away the treasure map. He was completely unaware that this treasure map was a fake treasure map that Ye Xuan casually made up.
"I won't treat you unfairly either. Here are a hundred Rank One soul crystals. They can increase the strength of your soul." Chief Steward Zhou took out a cloth bag and handed it to Ye Xuan.
Soul crystals were the currency of the Manifestation Realm. They could be used for transactions and could also be used to increase the strength of the soul.
A hundred Rank One Soul Crystals were roughly the net worth of a first level Manifestation Realm expert.
These things seemed to be a lot, but to Ye Xuan, it was just a drop of water in the ocean.
If he wanted to break through to the Second Level of the Manifestation Realm, he would need at least a thousand.
However, this was better than nothing.
Next, Chief Steward Zhou brought him to a certain place in the Zhou Family.
They had just arrived when a graceful woman walked out from inside. She was about twenty-five years old. She had a head of refreshing short hair and a pretty face.
"Grandfather, didn't you go out? Why are you back?"
The short-haired woman asked curiously.
"Little Ya, this is Ye Xuan who just joined my Zhou Family. He is now a steward of my Zhou Family. Show him around and familiarize him with the environment." Chief Steward Zhou said to the short-haired woman.
"Yes, Grandfather."
The short-haired woman softly replied.
Then, Chief Steward Zhou left.
Ye Xuan did not expect that this short-haired woman was actually the Zhou Family's Chief Steward's granddaughter.
Chief Steward Zhou was at the Third Level of the Manifestation Realm, but his granddaughter was actually at the Second Level of the Manifestation Realm. Her talent could probably rank in the top three in the entire Zhou Family.
"Hello, I am Zhou Ya, the Zhou Family's Vice Chief Steward." The short-haired woman walked in front of Ye Xuan with a smile.
"Ye Xuan!"
Ye Xuan also nodded and replied in a friendly manner.
He could try to control this Zhou Ya. After all, she was a Vice Chief, and her grandfather was the entire Zhou Family's Chief Steward.
However, this was the Zhou Family's territory. If he acted rashly and failed to control Zhou Ya in one go, he would definitely alert the enemy.
If he wanted to control her, he had to do it from afar.
Next, Zhou Ya brought Ye Xuan around to familiarize him with the environment. She told Ye Xuan some things and then assigned Ye Xuan a place to stay.
As for the job, it had not been decided yet.
"You can stay here for now. You will have a specific assignment in three days at most."
Zhou Ya said to Ye Xuan.
"Thank you, Vice Chief."
Ye Xuan hurriedly thanked her.
Zhou Ya smiled lightly. "I am one year older than you. You can call me Big Sister Ya. If you need anything in the future, you can come to me."
"Big Sister Ya."
Ye Xuan called out again.
However, just as Zhou Ya was about to turn and leave, a person suddenly stepped into Ye Xuan's residence.
It was a man wearing a golden crown. He had sword-like eyebrows and a dignified appearance. One look and one could tell that he was not a simple person.
When Zhou Ya saw this person, a look of disgust flashed across her eyes. However, she still greeted him respectfully. "Second Young Master."
The Second Young Master quickly walked over and glanced at Ye Xuan. Then, he asked, "Xiao Ya, why are you here?"
"Ye Xuan just joined the Zhou Family. Grandfather asked me to bring him around to familiarize him with the environment." Zhou Ya answered honestly.
"Oh, welcome to the Zhou Family."
The Second Young Master smiled at Ye Xuan. Then, he said in a commanding tone, "Xiao Ya and I have something to talk about now. You can go out and wait for a while."
Go out and wait for a while?
Ye Xuan was stunned. Motherf * cker. This was his residence. How could he ask him to go out and wait for a while?
Were they trying to have sex on the spot?
