âheard that Xiao Nuan and Xiao Bing are back. Of course I came to greet them.â
The person who spoke was a short, middle-aged man with a round face, small eyes, a small nose, and a mustache.
âMy lord, this person is not easy to provoke. Heâs from the second richest family in Mystic Fire City, the young master of the Feng family, Feng Tao. Heâs famous for bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Heâs arrogant and domineering. If we canât provoke him, ignore him.â
Xiao Nuan whispered.
âThe second richest family, the Feng family? Feng Tao?â
Lin Ye narrowed his eyes and asked, âThey sound very strong, What is their strongest combat power?â
âIt would be their ancestor who seems to be a peak Class 9, but he has been in seclusion for many years and has basically never appeared.â
âThe current clan leader, Feng Yanming, is a late-stage Class 9 expert and is also Feng Taoâs father.â
âAccording to the rumors, their family seems to have raised a group of guest fighters who have reached early-stage Class 9. I donât know the exact number, but they are definitely strong. In this territory of Mystic Flame City, other than the number one noble Shen family, no one dares to offend them,â Xiao
Bing interrupted.
âClass 9!â The smile on Lin Yeâs face became even wider. As long as they were not Class 10 and above, he was not afraid of anyone.
At the same time, Feng Tao also saw Lin Ye walking over surrounded by Xiao Bing and Xiao Nuan. A sharp glint flashed across his eyes.
However, it was suppressed by him in the blink of an eye. He said with a smile on his face, âIm Feng Tao from the Feng Family of Mystic Flame City. May I know which family this young master is from? Iâm swom brothers with the young master of the Wang Family of Heaven Cast City, Wang Tianyu. Perhaps
you know him? If youâre friends with him as well, I can be a good host.â
Lin Ye glanced at him, his expression returning to indifference. He was too lazy to say anything.
Tru, who knew his temper well, immediately shouted, âHey! What kind of Tom, Dick, and Harry dares to act cool in front of my lord? Donât talk about you knowing some useless young master of the Wang family. Even if you know the king, you donât have the right to be smug in front of my lord. If you know
whatâs good for you, scram.â
âOtherwise, your Grandpa Tru will beat you until you donât even know your mother!â
As Tru cursed, Feng Taoâs expression darkened.
Suppressing his anger, he looked at Lin Ye and gritted his teeth. âFriend, your evil servant bullied me like this. Are you not going to interfere?â
âSo what if Iâm bullying you? You donât have the right to act in front of my lord!â Tru went up and slapped Feng Tao until he was dizzy.
âYou, you dare to hit me!!!â Fury burned in Feng Taoâs eyes.
âIf you dare to talk nonsense again, die!â
Suddenly, an icy cold voice sounded. At the same time, his gaze met the other partyâs. For some reason, he seemed to be targeted by an ancient dragon.
Feng Tao was sweating profusely. Even the Class 8 guards he brought were trembling. They stood on the spot and did not dare to move.
Only when Lin Ye brought people into the True Dragon Pavilion and their backs disappeared did they regain their freedom.
âImpressive!!â The guardsâ faces turned pale as they exclaimed in shock.
On the other hand, Feng Taoâs eyes were filled with hatred.
Looking fiercely in the direction where Lin Ye had disappeared, his face darkened. He waved his hand and said, âJust you wait and see!â
With that, he led the group away.
On the other side, the three great beauties, Lan Xin, Xiao Bing, and Xiao Nuan, revealed worried expressions.
âLord Lin Ye, you were too impulsive just now. After all, this is not the Lin Clanâs territory. That Feng Tao has always been petty. He might secretly take revenge on you.â Lan Xin smiled bitterly.
âItâs fine. He canât do anything to me.â Lin Ye chuckled and didnât mind. Instead, he looked at Xiao Nuan and Xiao Bing and said with a smile,â That fellow, thereâs something wrong with the way he looks at the two of you. Why? Does he like you?â
âHeâs just a toad who wants to eat swan meat. Donât even think about it!â
Xiao Bing coldly snorted. âThis personâs reputation is already on the smelly streets of Mystic Fire City. He snatches women and acts recklessly. However, these useless people from the City Lordâs Mansion donât dare to do anything to him. They are afraid that if they offend the Wang family of Heaven Cast City,
they will deduct the number of weapons they should get every year. They are truly convinced!â
âBingbing, donât talk nonsense.â
Lan Xin rolled her eyes at her. Although this was the truth, it was a taboo in Mystic Fire City. No one dared to talk about it publicly.
âWhatâs there to be afraid of? In any case, my Fox Lady Race isnât afraid of him.â Xiao Bing raised her head and said arrogantly.
âThat was before.â
Lan Xin sighed and shook her head. âBusiness hasnât been good recently. The batch of goods we have in Heaven Cast City has been stopped for no reason. Look, the moment our mistress received the news, that fellow came to propose marriage. In my opinion, he is just giving us further pressure.â
âIf we dont agree, there might be more extreme methods later on.â
âDamn it, is there no way to punish him? Too despicable!â Xiao Bing was so angry her entire body was trembling.
âThen can the other goods not take a detour around Heaven Cast City?â Xiao Nuan asked.
âWe can, but the transport costs will be several times higher. We wonât be able to make any profit.â
Lan Xin shook her head.
As she spoke, they arrived at the True Dragon Pavilion. Inside was a hall that occupied 300 square meters.
On both sides were long tables filled with various colored delicacies and wine.
In the center was a single Dragon Mark Throne.
The chopping board in front was also made of pure gold. Under the illumination of the special array, its entire body emitted a golden glow. It looked extremely noble.
âMy lord, please take a seat!â Lan Xin led the way.
âSorry to trouble you.â Lin Ye nodded. He didnât stand on ceremony and sat on the Dragon Mark Throne under the lead of Xiao Nuan and Xiao Bing.
Beside him were two cushions. The two sisters were kneeling on them obediently.
âMy lord, Iâll pour you a cup of wine. This is a thousand-year-old wine brewed by our Fox Lady Race. Usually, even our own people canât bear to drink it. Only when you come can we have the honor of tasting it.â Xiao Nuan smiled.
âOh? Then letâs give it a try.â A smile appeared on Lin Yes face. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the members of the main team standing on both sides of the hall and said angrily,â What are you all pretending for? If you want to eat, serve yourself. Iâve never seen you all so obedient in the Lin Clanâs
territory.â
âMy lord, you should have said so earlier!!â
âTm just afraid of embarrassing you!â
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion below.
Most of them were people who had a tough life in the underworld.
This was the first time he had entered such a high-class restaurant. They were not comfortable with being their usual selves.
Fortunately, with their lord around, they quickly got used to it. All of them carried wine and ate heartily with the delicacies on the chopping board.
While they were in high spirits, they did not forget to raise their glass and laugh loudly.
âTo our lord, without our lord, we are still trash!â
âTo our lord!â
âTo our lord!â
âThis is only the beginning. It will be better in the future.â
Lin Ye smiled, stood up, raised his glass, and drank it all.
âAwesome!â
âThe thousand-year pure wine was fragrant when it entered his mouth, like a dense fragrance spreading through his taste buds. The fragrance continued to spread, making him feel refreshed.
âJust having wine and food wonât do. Aunt Lan, are there any girls who can sing and dance? Help me get one for each of my brothers to liven things up!â
Truâs face flushed red, and he laughed out loud through the alcohol.
âSure, please wait a moment!â
Lan Xin chuckled and clapped twice.
Soon, close to a hundred beautiful fox ladies wearing light muslin clothes walked over from behind. They covered half of their faces and immediately made the main team shout excitedly.
âThese useless things.â Lin Ye covered his face, unable to bear to look at them.
âItâs human nature.â
Lan Xin covered her mouth and laughed.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, she leaned over and whispered in Lin Yeâs ear, âMy lord, my clan leader has invited you.â
âsure.â
Lin Ye nodded and patted Xiao Nuan and Xiao Bingâs hands. He got up and followed Lan Xin to the backyard..
