Ye Xiu looked at Long Yifei as if he were an idiot. "The Dragon Lord just left, and you’re already eager to stir up trouble?"
"Cut the crap and get moving," Long Yifei said impatiently. "I’m sure the Dragon Lord already told you. I’m in charge here, and you’re just assisting . That ans you follow my orders. When I say go east, you don’t go west."
"Didn’t Long Tianhao tell you that he already gave the Long Family Manor?" Ye Xiu asked.
"Huh?" Long Yifei was baffled. "Impossible! The Long Family Manor is a vital stronghold for our family. My great-grandfather would never just give it to you."
"Don’t believe ? Ask him yourself," Ye Xiu said, pointing toward the entrance.
Long Yifei turned and saw Tang Bo walking in.
Before he could even ask, Tang Bo stated expressionlessly, "Sixth Master did indeed give the Long Family Manor to Ye Liangchen. I was there; I can testify."
Long Yifei froze. So he was living in Ye Liangchen’s house this whole ti? The realization was incredibly awkward.
"From now on, you can live in the house over by the farmstead," Ye Xiu said with a smile.
"Are you joking?" Long Yifei raged. "I am a distinguished Young Master of the Long Family! There’s no one in this entire manor with a higher status than , and you want to live in that dump?"
Ye Xiu shrugged. "If you don’t want to live there, you can stay at a hotel. You’re not welco in my house."
"You..." Furious and humiliated, Long Yifei drew his blade to strike Ye Xiu.
Tang Bo swiftly moved to block Ye Xiu’s path. His face was a mask as he said, "The Dragon Lord has given an order: anyone who dares to harm a single hair on Ye Liangchen’s head will be t with Sha Wushe!"
"Insolence!" Long Yifei was beside himself with rage, pointing his blade at Tang Bo. "Who do you think you are, Tang Bo? Your Tang Family are nothing but slaves to the Long Family, and you’re just a dog we keep on a leash! You dare speak to like this? Do you really think I wouldn’t kill you?"
"If you have the skill, then by all ans, kill ," Tang Bo said coldly.
Long Yifei was speechless. He and Tang Bo had fought countless tis since they were children, and every single fight had ended in a draw. He simply couldn’t kill him.
He snarled, "Tang Bo, I’ll rember this. I refuse to believe you can protect Ye Liangchen twenty-four hours a day."
With that, he stord off in a fury.
Ye Xiu’s eyes narrowed. He picked up on so intriguing details from the exchange between Tang Bo and Long Yifei. It seed the people with other surnas weren’t just affiliated with the Long Family; they were treated more like servants. Moreover, the relationship between Tang Bo and Long Yifei was terrible.
In that case, he could certainly try to turn Tang Bo and the other outsiders to his side. That would be a good way to start clipping the Long Family’s wings.
"Ye Liangchen, a word of warning," Tang Bo said, his face impassive. "Long Yifei is narrow-minded, resents the talented, and always gets his revenge. Now that he hates you, he’ll definitely look for a chance to make a move." Even though he disliked Ye Liangchen himself, if forced to choose between him and Long Yifei, he would pick Ye Liangchen without a second thought.
"He’s insignificant, not worth my concern." Ye Xiu brushed off the threat. "Weren’t you supposed to be reporting back to the Long Family about dicine King Valley targeting ? How did you get back so fast?"
"I ran into Third Master and gave him the news," Tang Bo said.
Third Master? The Dragon Lord’s third brother? Ye Xiu didn’t press for details. "Go get so rest. I’ll take you to a bar tonight."
At the ntion of a bar, Tang Bo’s eyes lit up, and he eagerly scampered off to his villa to get so sleep.
Just then, Ye Xiu’s phone rang. It was a call from Qing Luan.
"We’re ready on our end. Tonight, we’ll launch a surprise attack on all mbers of the Brotherhood Alliance in Hexia Road."
"That was fast," Ye Xiu joked. "To assemble such a large force and track down tens of thousands of Brotherhood Alliance mbers scattered across an entire region in such a short ti... Impressive."
"It’s all thanks to your help," Qing Luan said. "Otherwise, it would have taken us at least a month just to find all the mbers."
"Go for it. Call if you need anything," Ye Xiu said.
"Understood," Qing Luan responded.
After hanging up, Ye Xiu looked up to see four beautiful won walking in. He paused for a mont before asking, "Wen Rubing, Gu ng, Nangong Yue, and Bai Xi? What brings you here?"
Wen Rubing and the other won were secretly startled. It wasn’t surprising that he rembered Wen Rubing’s na, since they had fought. Gu ng, Nangong Yue, and Bai Xi, however, were genuinely shocked. The Dragon Lord had only introduced everyone once, yet Ye Liangchen rembered all their nas. His mory was astounding.
No, it wasn’t his mory that was astounding. It was because they were so beautiful that he had made a point to rember their nas. So, Ye Liangchen was a lecher after all!
"Counting you and Tang Bo, there are now 488 people in the Long Family Manor, but there aren’t enough rooms," Gu ng began, offering an elegant smile. "We ca to ask if the four of us could possibly stay here."
Her temperant and figure were sowhat similar to Jin Lian’s, and she seed to be a skilled socializer. However, having lived in seclusion for so long, she was new to the outside world. This was reflected in her clear, guileless eyes.
"This villa has three floors and seven rooms. It must be too quiet for you to live here all by yourself. It would be much livelier if we moved in," Nangong Yue said with a smile. She had a sultry, passionate aura, and when she smiled, her eyes curved into sexy crescents.
"W-well, if you... if you don’t agree, then... just forget it," Bai Xi stamred, looking down and nervously twisting the hem of her clothes.
This girl was pure, like the girl next door, with a shy and introverted personality that gave off the feeling of a first love.
"So, is that a yes or a no?" Wen Rubing asked, her expression cold.
This woman was like a block of ice: cold, arrogant, and keeping everyone at a distance.
Four beauties, each with a different personality.
Ye Xiu sneered inwardly. These four won were clearly sent by the Dragon Lord to seduce him. I’ll take them.
"Alright, you can all stay," Ye Xiu said with a smile. "Rest for a bit. This afternoon, I’ll take you shopping. Your current outfits are a bit too provincial and don’t do your beauty justice." His plan to turn the outsiders against the Long Family would start with Tang Bo and these four won.
He really is a pervert! Wen Rubing and the others cursed silently.
Although they had lived in seclusion and hadn’t seen much of the world, they had heard plenty of stories about scumbags in the city and had read many romance novels. For Ye Xiu to offer to take them shopping right after they t clearly ant he had bad intentions.
"Alright, we’ll go pick our rooms then," Gu ng said with a charming smile.
"I like red, so when you buy clothes, make sure to get sothing red, okay?" Nangong Yue said, winking at Ye Xiu.
"Th-thank you," Bai Xi stamred softly before shyly hurrying upstairs to pick a room.
"Scumbag," Wen Rubing snorted coldly.
As the four beauties went upstairs, Ye Xiu’s eyes narrowed. He began to ponder how he could win them over. If he could turn them to his side, swaying their families would beco much easier.
「One hour later.」
Ye Xiu left the house with Gu ng, Nangong Yue, and Bai Xi. Wen Rubing, who utterly loathed him, refused to go no matter what.
"Wen Rubing, where did Ye Liangchen take Gu ng and the others?" Long Yifei asked, running up to her.
"Shopping," Wen Rubing answered sparingly.
Long Yifei’s eyes lit up. He quickly gathered a few helpers and gave chase. In his mind, this was the perfect opportunity to teach Ye Xiu a lesson, since he had left without his bodyguard, Tang Bo.
