As expected, the Yi family was rich and powerful. They had a grand scale, with palace-like buildings stacked on top of each other, with flying eaves and arches, embroidered with dragons and phoenixes.
Yi Shuihan chatted with Ye Kong as they walked, but he found that Ye Kong was not in a good mood. His answers were basically "Mm, ah, oh."
Finally, they walked into a spacious hall. Everyone took their seats. Yi Shuihan smiled and said, "Brother Ye seems to have a lot on your mind. Is there something troubling you? If the Yi Family can help, feel free to tell us."
Ye Kong smiled bitterly. "I've always heard that the young master of the Yi family is a woman."
Yi Shuihan laughed loudly. "A fair and graceful lady is a gentleman's desire. I didn't expect Brother Ye to be such a passionate person. It's just that my sister, heh, most men are afraid of her. I advise Brother Ye not to have too high of an expectation."
Men were indeed afraid of someone as shrewd and cunning as Yi Manying. It seemed that most men liked women with big breasts and no brains. Ye Kong said, "To be honest, Brother Yi, I am afraid of her too. However, I do have something to discuss with her."
Yi Shuihan was stunned. It seemed that Ye Kong knew his sister? But his sister rarely came back and rarely left the Pipa Realm. How did they know each other?
Just as Yi Shuihan was about to ask, a man with a saber walked in. "Young master, the master heard that Hero Ye has arrived and wants to see him."
Yi Shuihan smiled. "I didn't expect my mother to be alarmed. Brother Ye, please. My mother doesn't see outsiders these past few years."
He didn't expect the master of the Yi family business to be a woman. Ye Kong nodded and followed Yi Shuihan to the back. However, along the way, Ye Kong was wondering how he could get Yi Manying to come out and meet him. Also, if Yi Manying was in Cang Nan now, should he ask Yi Shuihan about going there?
They arrived at the back garden. This place was in full bloom, with colorful flowers, colorful butterflies flying, and buzzing bees. In the center of the garden was a small white jade pavilion. This white pavilion was surrounded by a transparent curtain. There was an opening on one side of the curtain, and below it stood two rows of Shadow Clan maids.
Although the women of the Shadow Clan were all charming, they were also divided into various ranks. These maids were clearly a grade higher than the Shadow Clan women on the street. Their small appearances were simply dazzling.
But that was not the main point. Only when you see Yi Family's Master, the current Family Head, will you understand what it means to be more beautiful, but never the most beautiful. The beautiful woman standing in the pavilion was the real beauty. If those women were youthful beauties, then this beautiful woman was mature. She had the kind of mature charm that could excite young men.
Of course, Ye Kong was no longer a young man. He had seen Lu Junrou, who was even more beautiful than her, so Ye Kong would definitely not lose his composure. However, he still took a few more glances … Yes, she looked a bit like Yi Manying, but her eyes were also purple. Why did Yi Manying have black pupils?
A flash of displeasure appeared on the beautiful woman's face. She thought to herself, 'Looks like this person is also a vulgar person. He lost his composure when he saw a beautiful woman and actually stared at an elder like this. If you can't even control yourself, how are you going to be successful in the future?' However, the beautiful woman soon felt that it wasn't the case because Ye Kong was looking at her with a slightly puzzled expression, unlike the greedy gazes of other men.
"Mother, this is Brother Ye Kong, the one who saved the various large merchant companies." Yi Shuihan didn't notice this and bowed.
"Junior Ye Kong greets Yi Family's Master." Ye Kong also hurriedly bowed.
"No need for formalities. Yi Ziyue should be the one thanking the young hero for saving my Yi Family's caravan disciples." The beautiful woman smiled.
This woman's surname is also Yi? Yi Manying and Yi Shuihan both have my surnames? Looks like she's a product of a visiting marriage. Her children follow her parents. Sigh, I didn't expect this woman to be so dissolute when she was young. I wonder if she still participates in visiting marriages now.
A certain someone felt shameless in his heart but put on a respectful expression. He hurriedly said, "I wouldn't dare."
Yi Ziyue smiled. "Young hero Ye is young and promising. May I know why you came to Snow Shadow City? If our Yi Family can help, we will do so without hesitation. "
I want to return to Cang Nan. Can you tell me the passageway? Ye Kong shook his head and sat down. He smiled. "Actually, I'm not here to ask for help. I'm here to give the Yi Family a gift."
Everyone was stunned by Ye Kong's words. They originally thought that Ye Kong was here to ask for the Yi Family's help. Who knew that he was here to give a gift? But what gift was he giving?
As Ye Kong spoke, he raised his hand and a figure rolled out. It was the Sanguine Monarch, Zhou Xinghua.
Yi Ziyue, Yi Shuihan, and the rest did not believe that Ye Kong could capture the Yuanying Divine Lord as a Pseudo Core cultivator. It was possible for a Pseudo Core cultivator to defeat a Core Formation cultivator, but it was unbelievable for a Pseudo Core cultivator to defeat a Yuanying cultivator.
However, when they saw Ye Kong release Zhou Xinghua, they had no choice but to believe it. At the same time, they were surprised that Ye Kong had an auxiliary space. Ye Kong's auxiliary space had long been exposed in front of everyone, so there was no need to hide it. It was fine as long as people did not know it was the Pipa Beads.
"This person is the person in charge of the Shadow Clan's caravan attack in Lin Ze Jing. I believe your family must be very interested in him," said Ye Kong with a smile. He had thought of using Zhou Xinghua to exchange for a way to Cangnan, but after thinking about it, the way to Cangnan was the Yi Family's biggest secret. This would definitely not succeed and would instead make the Yi Family suspicious of him. Hence, he might as well give Zhou Xinghua away. In any case, Zhou Xinghua was of no use to him.
As expected, Yi Ziyue had a good impression of Ye Kong and signaled the guards to take Zhou Xinghua away.
Seeing Zhou Xinghua being taken away, she nodded and said, "We have long suspected that this matter is not as simple as it seems, but we have no evidence. Now that we have this person, we can clearly see their goal. Thank you, Hero Ye."
Yi Ziyue said, "Hero Ye, we don't know how to thank you for giving us such a big gift. If you need anything, just tell us."
Ye Kong looked at Yi Shuihan and smiled. "I want to see someone."
Yi Shuihan immediately understood and his expression turned bitter. He said to Yi Ziyue, "Mother, Brother Ye wants to see Big Sister. He knows Big Sister and wants to catch up today, but Manying …"
Yi Ziyue understood a little. No wonder he was staring at her just now. Maybe he was looking at her to see if she looked like his daughter. But what was the question in his eyes?
"Manying went to the outer realm to restock. She won't be back for a while," said Yi Ziyue with a frown.
Ye Kong knew it was not a coincidence. Yi Manying was probably still in Cangnan. He asked again, "May I ask when she will be back?"
"Maybe a year and a half."
Hearing this, Ye Kong was very depressed. If Yi Manying didn't come back, who could he tell if he wanted to go back to Cangnan? How could the Yi Family expose their most important secret to an outsider like him? No matter what he said, they probably wouldn't agree.
After that, they exchanged a few more greetings. At this time, an old voice suddenly rang out in the sky.
"A little friend has come? I want to see this little friend and the gift he brought! "
That old voice seemed to come from very far away, but it also seemed like it was right beside their ears. It was very mysterious and strange. This person's cultivation was definitely high.
Yi Shuihan said in shock, "Mother, this is … the old man's voice."
Yi Ziyue was also shocked. Then, she said doubtfully, "The old man has been in seclusion for a hundred years. The Shadow Clan has a new master, but he still hasn't come out. What is going on today?"
