"But …" Ye Wuyun started to panic. Just as he was about to speak, he was coldly cut off by Ye Wuchen, "Ye Wuyun, I know that you've been very dissatisfied with my return to the Yeh family. If I had died back then, you might have become the head of the Yeh family. Now that I've returned, your dream has been ruined. However, next time you play these kinds of tricks, you'd better use your brain to think of a better technique. The one you're using now … Cheh! "
With a disdainful tone, Ye Wuchen suddenly stretched out his right hand and grabbed at the air. The invitation card in Ye Nu's hand flew into Ye Wuchen's hand as if it had grown wings. He waved his hand, and the invitation card turned into pieces of paper that filled the air. He once again waved his hand, collecting the pieces of paper, and turned to leave. As he turned, his mouth twitched … Ye Wuyun, you're just a clown, a toy. You're not worthy of being my opponent, and you dare to fight me?!
He believed that Ye Nu definitely wouldn't go to Long Zheng Yang to verify what he had said. Otherwise, he wouldn't be Ye Nu.
"Chen 'er!" It was the first time that she had seen Ye Wuchen so angry, and Wang Wenshu was terrified. She hurriedly ran after him, and didn't even look at Ye Wuyun.
Only Ye Nu, Ye Wei, and Ye Wuyun were left in the hall. The strange silence was filled with a suffocating pressure, and Ye Wuyun panicked as he hurriedly said, "Godfather, grandpa, it's definitely not like what little brother Wuchen said …"
"Yun 'Er, you can leave now. I think you lost your invitation card somewhere." Ye Nu said as he waved his hand.
"Yes." Ye Wuyun replied with a gloomy expression. Then, he turned around and left.
After Ye Wuyun left, Ye Nu pondered for a while and asked, "Do you think what Chen 'er said is true?"
"I won't." Ye Wei shook his head and frowned, "If Yun 'er really had such thoughts, he wouldn't have used such a low-level method. But what I'm thinking is, although Chen 'er's last few words seemed to be directed at Yun' er, could she be hinting something to us? "
"Oh?" Ye Nu was puzzled.
Ye Wei remained silent and tried hard to search for the flash of inspiration that had just flashed through his mind.
"Chen 'er … Chen' er, I really didn't suspect you. It was I who didn't do well enough …"
Wang Wenshu nervously chased after Ye Wuchen. Her footsteps became more and more urgent. Ye Wuchen finally stopped and turned around with a smile, "I know … I'm actually fine. I'm just a little tired today and want to go back and rest early."
Wang Wenshu's nervous heart finally relaxed. She said with a heartache, "That's true. You must be exhausted after being tossed around for so long in the morning. Go back and rest quickly. I'll have Little Green send lunch to you after I'm done. "
"En!" Ye Wuchen responded with a smile.
As soon as he returned to his courtyard, Ye Qi and Ye Ba had already come to greet him from afar. Before they even got close, their flattery had already arrived. It was like the overflowing Yellow River …
"Young Master! We've heard about what happened today … We've known for a long time that Young Master is definitely a one-in-a-million dragon. It's just that you don't cry, but once you do, you'll definitely shock the heavens and earth, make ghosts and gods weep. The entire Sky Dragon City will tremble three times! Although the young master of the Lin family is powerful, he's really nothing in front of Young Master. If Young Master is the sun, then he's just an unremarkable little star. If Young Master is a flower, then he's just an unremarkable little grass … Ah no! He's not even a little grass, he's just a pile of cow dung … "
From the entrance of the courtyard, they slowly walked to the table and sat down. The two of them didn't stop flattering him, not to mention repeating it. This made Ye Wuchen secretly sigh at their talent. If they were in Hua Xia, they could get a big official position with just this mouth alone. He waved his hand, "Okay, that's enough. Go make me a cup of tea."
As soon as his voice fell, Ye Qi and Ye Ba hadn't even moved when Little Green had already walked over with two cups of tea.
"Young Master, Miss Ningxue, please have some tea."
After putting the cups down, she retreated with light steps and then stared straight at Ye Wuchen. Her eyes shone brightly, making Ye Wuchen wonder if there were two bright gems embedded in her eyes. After a long time, he actually felt that he couldn't take it anymore, so he faked a cough and said, "Little Green, go wash the clothes I changed out of yesterday."
"Young Master, it's already washed." Little Green bowed slightly.
"… Then go get lunch from Madam's place. Just say I'm a little hungry." Ye Wuchen immediately changed his excuse.
"Yes." Little Green turned around and left with small, quick steps.
Ye Wuchen finally let out a sigh of relief. He picked up the teacup and first tested the temperature of the water before lightly touching it to Ningxue's lips and feeding her small sips.
"Ye Qi, how far is the Black Forest east of the city from the city gate?" Ye Wuchen lowered his head and asked casually.
"Exactly twenty li." Ye Qi replied.
"Roughly how far is the Demon Sealing Tower from the western edge of the Black Forest?" Ye Wuchen still asked casually.
"This … about ten li. Young Master, you can't be thinking of … "Ye Qi asked carefully and nervously.
"I'm just asking casually."
After feeding Ningxue, Ye Wuchen picked up the other cup of tea and took a small sip. He then let out a sigh of relief and raised his head, his mind flashing with all kinds of possibilities.
"Ye Ba, go get me some sulfur, charcoal, saltpeter, and preferably some kerosene. Do you have any way to buy or find these? "Ye Wuchen suddenly said.
Ye Ba was startled and answered, "Yes, yes. Although it's not easy to find, there should be some in Heavenly Dragon City."
"Then go now. If you need silver, go to the accountant's office and tell them it's my request."
Ye Ba agreed and left, still muttering in his heart about why he had to find these strange things. Apart from the saltpeter, weren't these all used to light lamps and make fire? They were already using magic lamps, so why did they still need this?
Ye Wuchen held Ningxue in one hand and held a cup of tea in the other, casually sipping. His eyes subconsciously narrowed, not knowing what he was thinking. Ye Qi knew that he must be thinking about something and didn't dare to disturb him, standing there in a well-behaved manner.
"Ye Qi, who is the number one assassin in Tenryū Province?" Ye Wuchen asked.
"Number one assassin?" Ye Qi scratched his head and thought for a moment. Then, his eyes lit up and he said, "I remember, when I was chatting with Little Three and Little Four, I heard them mention that our Tenryū Province does have a number one assassin. His name is Tao Baibai."
Pfft …
Ye Wuchen spat out a mouthful of tea, drenching Ningxue's dress. He quickly put down the teacup and wiped the water stains on her dress with his hand. He cursed in his heart … This is the second time. It seems that it's better not to drink tea when talking to this Ye Qi in the future.
"This … This name is indeed a bit strange." Ye Qi said embarrassedly. He secretly muttered in his heart: Even if it's a bit strange, it shouldn't be this reaction. It was the same last time. Could it be that Young Master is allergic to other people's names?
"Oh, it is indeed a bit strange." Ye Wuchen said calmly.
The number one assassin, Tao Baibai! This was such a cool name, and if this title and this name came to Hua Xia, then it wouldn't simply be "cool" to describe it.
"Then does he have a unique skill called 'Dong Dong Bo'?" Ye Wuchen asked tentatively. After asking, even he felt that this question was asking for a beating. ^-^^-^
