Ye Luo slightly frowned, whatâs going on? He had his eye on a manor, and now someone was trying to snatch it away? This was looking for trouble!
However, before Ye Luo could open his mouth to speak, he saw the person who had spoken smiling as he came up to Ye Luo and then said to him, "Young master, this manor holds special significance to me, I wonder if you could kindly part with it!"
Thereâs a saying, "You donât slap a smiling face." After all, Ye Luo hadnât yet decided to buy the manor, so letting it go to him wouldnât really matter.
Ye Luo was about to agree when he heard another voice chime in.
"Whatâs the hurry, Young Yun? Found the manor you fancy so quickly? Yunqi Manor, good name indeed. Hey, kid, go play somewhere else, weâre taking this manor!"
Ye Luo turned around and saw another young man walking towards them, sneering at Ye Luo as he approached. The look in his eyes was as if Ye Luoâs mere presence here was an insult to him!
The main party hadnât spoken yet, and some nobody dared to add to the chaos?
Although Ye Luo wasnât someone unreasonable, this guy was practically riding roughshod over him. Was Ye Luo supposed to just put up with it?
"Whereâs this dog barking from? Is the Wang Family running a dog kennel in this sales hall?"
Instead of replying directly to the man, Ye Luo spoke to the Wang Familyâs shopkeeper.
But the meaning in those words was clear for anyone who wasnât a fool to understand.
"You, you dare to curse at me! Youâre finished, kid! I want you dead!"
"What are you staring at? Get him, seize that brat, I want him dead!"
To talk about life and death at the drop of a hat, such a fiery temper indeed!
As the man spoke, immediately two of his followers charged towards Ye Luo.
Ye Luo turned, ready to fight back, only to see Young Yun stepping in between them!
"Hold on a second, please calm down, Brother Li!"
Young Yun, whose real name was Yun Liancheng, was the son of an Earl from the Great Tang Empireâa noble as well. This time, his visit to Yunkai City was not merely to prepare for ascending the Sacred Temple; in fact, it was even more important for him to follow in his motherâs footsteps!
As for the young Li he mentioned, his background was much loftier than Yun Lianchengâs!
In the Great Tang Empire, the Imperial Familyâs surname is Li! Although not all those who are surnamed Li are members of the Royal Family, if they carry the surname Li, they are either ordinary civilians or great nobles!
And this young Li himself was a Marquis, with a father who was a Commandery Prince of the Great Tang Empire!
One could say that his status was much higher than Yun Lianchengâs.
Seeing Yun Liancheng blocking him, he was immediately infuriated!
"Get out of my way. Today, Iâll take the time to properly discipline this lowlife!"
His words carried no courtesyâhis tone hardly considered Yun Liancheng a friend.
Ye Luo clearly saw this scene and saw the unnatural look on Yun Lianchengâs face upon hearing these words.
Ye Luo shook his head helplessly. Although it was only for a brief moment, Ye Luo had already understood the relationship between the twoâit could be described as a sick form of friendship.
Perhaps Yun Liancheng truly regarded young Li as a friend, but Li now merely saw him as an attendant ready to be summoned or dismissed at a whim.
Ye Luo did not speak, merely watching everything with a detached gaze.
Yun Lianchengâs face shifted in color, his eyebrows knit lightly as he spoke to Li Shao, "Brother Li, itâs just a set of manor grounds, and besides, I have already reached an agreement with this gentleman. Thereâs no need for you to get angry!"
"Haha, I donât care what youâve discussed, he insulted me, do you understand? That lowly commoner dared to insult me! Get out of my way, or else, donât blame me for dealing with you as well!"
"Brother Li, itâs my fault, letâs just settle down. How about this, Iâll treat you to drinks later as an apology. Letâs just forget about this matter," Yun Liancheng tried once more to persuade.
However, persuading him twice apparently infuriated Li Shao completely.
"How dare you, Yun Liancheng! Am I giving you face for nothing? What are you waiting for? Get him, and anyone who dares to stop me will be killed on the spot!"
Killed on the spot!
Ye Luo looked at both of them in astonishment, or rather, at their pathological form of friendship.
Over a simple disagreement, was Li Shao really going to kill Yun Liancheng?
Werenât these two supposed to be friends?
Yun Liancheng himself was stunned; he thought that he and Li Shao were friends, but he never expected such an outcome. His expression showed a mix of despondence and hesitation, especially since from the time they met at the Royal Academy, Yun Liancheng had always treated Li Shao as a friend.
Although Li Shao was often disgusting in his day-to-day conduct, because they were at the Royal Academy, he never went too far. But who could have expected, now in Yunkai City, he would behave like this!
Upon receiving another order from Li Shao, the guards finally stopped hesitating and promptly began to approach Ye Luo.
Yun Lianchengâs face changed yet again, and suddenly, he released his own imposing aura, blocking the path of the guards.
"Brother Li, what happened today is your fault, and you were the first to insult. Out of consideration for our friendship, I hope you will stop right there!"
Ye Luo just stood there, watching this drama unfold, because the turn of events was far beyond his imagination.
"Haha, friends, you think youâre worthy of being my friend? Attack, do not mind him. Humph, even if I killed his father, I would merely have to pay some compensation. I want to see what he can do!"
Clearly, the issue had now shifted to the conflict between Yun Liancheng and Li Shao, and Ye Luo had become merely an excuse.
If Yun Liancheng could enter the Royal Academy, he must certainly possess some strength, and he also had his own pride. Having heard such insults from Li Shao, he no longer held back!
With a swift movement, Yun Lianchengâs figure, a white fog emitted from his body!
This was his Domain, but unlike othersâ Domains.
Wherever the white fog spread, Yun Liancheng could sense even the slightest movement sharply, and his reflexes within the fog were amplified many times over!
The guards of Li Shao who rushed into the fog hadnât even begun to make a move before Yun Liancheng struck them down one by one!
It could be said that the fight ended in the blink of an eye!
Ye Luo was slightly taken aback, but thought to himself, what an exquisite way of controlling Spiritual Power!
He too had been enveloped by that white fog, so Ye Luo could keenly feel the ingenious strength within it.
This fog, to be precise, should be an embodiment of the intrinsic Spiritual Power within Yun Liancheng. He used the fog to completely envelop himself, not only to enhance his own capabilities but also to weaken those of his enemies.
