When Sun Sieha brought Ye Chong to the back door of the Prince's Residence, Desnio and the other two were already waiting for them.
Sun Sieha looked at the three people standing with their heads lowered and nodded slightly. "Don't make a sound." The three of them nodded in understanding. However, when they saw Ye Chong standing coldly beside Sun Sieha, their eyes flashed with surprise.
"This is Ye Chong … Hmm … Master, he's a master weaponsmith, and a close combat expert," Sun Sieha introduced Ye Chong briefly.
The three of them realized that Ye Chong was a master weaponsmith. No wonder His Majesty valued him so much. They ignored the close combat expert behind him. There was no such thing as a Master in close combat. His Majesty must be doing him a favor.
Sun Sieha turned to Ye Chong and introduced, "This is Prince Desnio, my uncle. This is Duke Warren, my Minister of Internal Affairs. Hmm, if you need anything in the future, you can look for him directly. "
Duke Warren chuckled. "Master Ye, if you need anything, just send a letter." He was no fool. If His Majesty had said something like that, it was enough to prove that His Majesty favored him greatly. A person like this must be fawned upon. Even if he did not, it was always a good idea to build a good relationship with him.
"This is Ming Xiao, the General of the First Legion," Sun Sieha introduced, pointing to Ming Xiao. Ming Xiao smiled at Ye Chong.
"This is the most prestigious night gathering in Eastern Cloud. Hehe, of course, there are many beautiful women here too. Get to know some of the nobles, it will be good for you," Sun Sieha said to Ye Chong.
"I see." Ye Chong nodded and turned to leave.
Duke Warren and the others knew who Ye Chong was the moment they saw him. Duke Warren and the others had a strange feeling when they heard His Majesty's words to the young man. They all thought of another rumor that was circulating at the same time as that news — that the young man was actually His Majesty's illegitimate son. They knew that His Majesty was a strict man, and rarely spoke to anyone in such a friendly manner.
As the host, Prince Desnio had to be considerate. He quickly asked, "Do you need a servant to lead the way?"
"No need." Ye Chong did not need to mince his words. His voice was as cold as ice.
A mysterious smile appeared on Sun Sieha's face. He turned his face and his expression returned to normal. He said to the three, "The three of you, follow me to the study." After he finished speaking, he took the lead and walked towards the study. He had lived in the Prince's Mansion for a long time when he was a child, so he was very familiar with the place.
Duke Warren and the other two knew that His Majesty must have something to say to them, so they quickly followed him.
Ye Chong entered the night meeting alone. This was an open night party. Apart from needing an invitation to enter, everything else was completely free for the attendees. No matter which corner, there was exquisite food and wine. In some quiet corners, there were soft sofas and delicious snacks. This place was suitable for quiet conversation. In the center, all the tables and chairs had been cleared, and there was an open dance floor.
Ye Chong had participated in similar meetings in the Shang Family before. While the memories in the Shang Family were not exactly pleasant, Ye Chong was not as clueless as before.
Ye Chong took a glass of wine from a waiter's tray, held it, and walked to a quiet corner.
In truth, he did not know the purpose or plan of this operation. However, Sun Sieha had come all the way here, so Ye Chong decided to come. Ye Chong did not know Sun Sieha well, but he was sure that the man was not someone who liked to do unnecessary things.
There were a few people sitting in the corner, most of them discussing something in low voices. However, Ye Chong's hearing was exceptional, and he could clearly hear what they were saying. Some of the noblewomen were sitting in a circle with their beloved dogs in their arms, gossiping about the gossip going around.
Just then, Ye Chong suddenly felt someone approaching him.
A young man, holding a glass of red wine, approached Ye Chong's sofa and said, "Hey, brother, why are you sitting here alone? Are you bored? Haha, I'm bored too. I don't know why these people are so passionate about it. Don't they get bored? "
The young man was obviously from a noble family. His skin was fair, and he spoke warmly and warmly. He sat down on the sofa beside Ye Chong and moaned comfortably.
"Haha, I still don't know your name, brother. I'm Yise," Yise looked at Ye Chong warmly.
"Ye Chong," Ye Chong replied simply.
Suddenly, Yise turned towards the dance floor and said, "Brother Ye, what do you think about that beauty in the middle of the dance floor?"
Following where the Yith was pointing, there was a beautiful woman dancing happily on the dance floor. The woman had long hair that cascaded down her back like a waterfall. Her eyes were bright and her teeth were sharp. She had an innocent smile on her face. Her slim waist was tightly tied up, and the white dress below looked like a blooming flower. Even Ye Chong, who had no taste for beauty, could see that the rest of the people around him paled in comparison to her.
However, Ye Chong was not interested in this topic. He looked away and said, "Just so-so."
"Oh, my God! That's Miss Man 'er, the most beautiful woman in Su City, Miss Shu Man' er. She's the dream lover of countless young men like us! You're not even interested in her, could it be … "Yise looked at Ye Chong strangely.
Shu Man 'er. Ye Chong suddenly thought of Shu Mo' er. He wondered if the two were related. Ye Chong stared at Shu Man 'er for a while, but to no avail.
"Haha, brother, you've exposed yourself! You were talking so confidently just now, but now you're staring at her! Hehe, your eyes just now betrayed you. I'm too familiar with that look. In the entire Su City, 80% of the people who see Miss Shu Man 'er look like that. Of the remaining 20%, 10% are women, "Yise said proudly.
"What about the other 10%?" Ye Chong was interested in this Yi Qi.
"They're blind," Yise said decisively.
Suddenly, Ye Chong had an idea. He studied Yise from head to toe, and was surprised. This guy was a good candidate for combat training. His body was well-proportioned, his bones were thick, and his movements were coordinated. However, Ye Chong could tell from his smooth skin that he had never been through much hardship.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Let me tell you, I'm not interested in men." Yise's voice sounded strange.
Ye Chong looked away.
Suddenly, the dance floor erupted into chaos. A roar that Ye Chong had never heard before came from the crowd. Everyone's eyes were on the dance floor.
Hearing the roar, Yise, who was beside Ye Chong, turned pale. "D * mn it! Which bastard brought a snowhound here? Doesn't he know he's going to kill someone? "
"Snowhound? What's that? "Ye Chong asked.
Yise replied hurriedly, "It's nothing, it's just a small animal. Normally, it would be like a puppy, furry and cute. However, when it goes berserk, it's terrifying. It's fast and aggressive. Someone must've mistaken it for a puppy. "
"I see," Ye Chong replied.
"This is bad. It's forbidden to carry weapons here, and the guards are outside." Yise panicked.
Suddenly, the roar came towards Ye Chong. Yise paled. He saw the crazed snowhound charging towards them.
Ye Chong saw the snowhound too. It was not big, about the size of the puppies he saw in the arms of the rich ladies. It was furry all over, like a snowball. However, its eyes were bloodshot, and its cute little mouth was now drooling. It looked menacing.
Ye Chong's eyes turned cold. He had dealt with many kinds of wild animals, and he could immediately tell how dangerous this snowhound was.
Its four legs, which were mostly hidden in thick fur, were extremely powerful. Its body was as fast as lightning, so fast that it was hard for the eyes to follow. It had already bitten through the throats of three waiters.
"It's over, it's over!" Yise trembled.
Ye Chong picked up a knife from the table. Yise watched in despair as the knife twirled between his fingers, and turned into a flash of light.
Clang! Two sounds rang out simultaneously.
The snowhound was nailed to the floor by the knife. The knife was right in its throat, and blood flowed along the edge of the knife. The light in its bloodshot eyes dimmed. Its limbs were still thrashing about, and its throat could not make any sound.
Everyone was stunned by this turn of events. Many looked pitifully at the cute-looking snowhound, while some of the noblewomen looked at Ye Chong with disgust. No one paid any attention to the three dead waiters. The waiters silently carried the corpses of their companions out.
"Thank goodness you were quick! Brother, you saved me this time! But what you did just now was really cool. Can you teach me? "Yise had just escaped from danger, and was in a state of excitement.
"Xue Xue!" A woman's sorrowful cry was approaching them.
Yise, who was excited just a moment ago, froze. He turned to Ye Chong mechanically, and smiled bitterly. "Brother, we're doomed this time!"
The young lady saw the snowhound pinned to the floor, and began to cry. She crouched down and caressed the snowhound's body.
Ye Chong saw clearly that the young lady was Shu Man 'er, who had been on the dance floor earlier.
A few strong young men soon appeared beside Shu Man 'er. They were furious when they saw how sorrowful Shu Man' er was.
"Which son of a b * tch did this? Come out, you motherf * cker! "A tall and burly young man shouted.
"Honey, how many times have I told you that we nobles can't use profanity? But I'll forgive you this time. Hmph, I don't know which guy is tired of living." A youth with a pair of triangular eyes said in a sinister voice.
Both of them were clustered around a handsome young man. The young man's face was sculpted like a marble sculpture, and he had an intimidating aura about him. His eyes swept across the crowd, and everyone backed away from him. Finally, his gaze landed on Ye Chong.
Of all the people, Ye Chong was the only one who ignored him.
"May I ask if it was you who did this?" The young man spoke slowly, his voice steady and powerful.
Ye Chong nodded. "Yes."
Yise's expression changed. He whispered to Ye Chong, "He's the son of the Second Legion's General, George. He's very strong. He's still young, but he's already a Level 6 shooter. He's always been interested in Miss Shu Man 'er, and is the most likely candidate to marry her. However, according to my sources, Miss Shu Man 'er doesn't seem to be interested in him. "
"This puppy is Miss Man 'er's beloved pet. Why did you harm it?" George spoke forcefully.
"Puppy? That's a snowhound! "Yise could not help but speak up from beside Ye Chong.
George's eyes flashed fiercely, and Yise shrunk back.
"If you apologize to Miss Man 'er, we'll forget about this matter. What do you say?" George took a look at Ye Chong.
Yise did not expect the matter to be settled so easily. He was overjoyed, and was about to agree when Ye Chong's words hit him like a bucket of cold water.
"No." Ye Chong's reply was decisive.
George and the two men beside him were shocked. The man beside him was about to scold him, but George raised a hand to stop him. He asked in a low voice, "You're not going to give me face?"
Ye Chong looked at George indifferently. He was confused. Why was this man's logic so bad? He was only acting in self-defense, and now he had to apologize to the girl?
Just then, Shu Man'er, who had been sobbing all this while, stood up abruptly. Her face was still wet with tears. She walked to Ye Chong and bowed to him. "Sir, I'm sorry. I did not know that Snowy was a snowhound. I'm sorry for scaring you."
Shu Man 'er's action was like a slap to George's face. George's expression darkened. He did not expect Shu Man'er to embarrass him in such a situation.
His eyes flashed with viciousness as he said coldly, "So it's me who's been snubbed all this time. George, I understand now! However, this matter cannot end like this. I demand a duel with this gentleman! "
His words caused an uproar in the crowd.
"George, are you crazy? This is between you and me, why take it out on others? This has nothing to do with him. I didn't know Snowy was a snowhound, that's why I made this mistake. I should be the one at fault! "Shu Man 'er spoke quickly, and looked at Ye Chong apologetically.
George's expression was grim. He ignored Shu Man 'er and looked at Ye Chong coldly. "How about it? Do you have the courage?"
Ye Chong was confused. Why did the man have to talk so much? If he did not like the man, he could just fight, just like he did.
Ye Chong moved, and appeared in front of George under the shocked eyes of the crowd.
George's expression changed. He was about to react when he felt something hard in his throat. Then, he felt his feet leaving the ground.
Ye Chong held George by the neck and held him up in the air, his expression unchanged.
The entire hall was silent. Everyone looked at Ye Chong in horror. George was the son of the 2nd Legion's General! Was he tired of living? On the other hand, the stronger ones were shocked because Ye Chong had moved too fast!
Was this even possible for a human?
At this moment, the entire venue was dead silent.
Clatter! Clatter! Countless wine glasses fell from the guests' hands and shattered on the floor. Everyone finally came to their senses. The crowd was thrown into chaos. There were sounds of tables and chairs falling, people falling, and plates breaking.
"Let go! Don't hurt Young Master George! "
"You're tired of living? How dare you do something like this? "
"Young man, think carefully. Don't do anything stupid. You have to think about the consequences of doing this. Think about your family … "
…
"What's going on?" Prince Desnio asked in a low voice. His voice was not loud, but the crowd quieted down.
The guests saw the middle-aged man next to the Prince, and immediately bowed. "Long live His Majesty!" They did not know when His Majesty had arrived. Some of the more active ones immediately thought of the young man.
For a moment, everyone knelt down. Only Ye Chong stood there with George by the neck.
"What's going on? Isn't that Aris's son? "Sun Sieha saw Ye Chong holding George and asked him curiously.
"He said he wants to duel with me," Ye Chong explained the situation in a concise manner.
That bastard George! Sun Sieha cursed George in his mind. George only knew how to cause trouble. If it were anyone else, he could just leave it be. However, it was the son of the 2nd Legion's General.
"He's no match for you," Sun Sieha smiled and said, "Let him go. There's no need to lower yourself to this young man's level."
Everyone's hearts shook when they heard this. His Majesty was a Level 8 shooter, and if even His Majesty said that George was no match for this young man, then this young man must be very strong. Others were thinking about another question. His Majesty did not ask about the situation and directly stood on the young man's side. It could be seen how much he was favored. But where did this young man come from?
"Deal," Ye Chong said, and held up five fingers. Ye Chong was very displeased with Sun Sieha. Not only did he not explain his reason for attending this dinner, he even had to ask for something so boring.
Sun Sieha could see the displeasure in Ye Chong's eyes. He glanced at Ye Chong's outstretched fingers and felt helpless. He nodded and said, "Alright." He cursed Aris in his heart. What kind of son did he have? No, he must get the money back from Aris.
The conversation between Ye Chong and Sun Sieha was confusing to everyone except for Duke Warren. He lowered his head in disbelief.
