Chapter 959: Chapter 959: Patriarch Qingye
The appearance of the eagle-eyed middle-aged man imdiately shattered the atmosphere on the scene, drawing the attention of the two individuals who had been on the verge of confrontation.
Upon seeing the eagle-eyed man, the scruffy old man imdiately frowned and said, “Pei Donglai, what are you doing here? Are you worried and ca to spy on ?”
This eagle-eyed middle-aged man was none other than the current Family Head of the Pei Family, and the son of the man who imprisoned him, Pei Cangshan, known as Eagle Eye Donglai!
Pei Donglai smiled faintly and said, “Haha, Old Wine Monster, you’ve misunderstood . Since my Pei Family entrusted this task to you, it shows our trust in you. We wouldn’t resort to sothing like spying. This ti, I’ve co to play the role of a peacemaker!”
After speaking, he turned his gaze towards Ye Xuan, his face showing a look of admiration:
“Young man, you’re so young, yet your strength is so high. You have the strongest martial arts talent I’ve ever seen! Even the three young eccentrics in Dragon Soul are likely no match for you! No wonder my father asked Mr. Wine Demon to intervene.”
Ye Xuan, however, ignored his remarks and stared at him, asking indifferently, “Your surna is Pei? Are you from the Pei Family in Shangjing?”
Previously, he was wondering, able to command a martial arts master like the scruffy old man, the force behind it must be extraordinary. It turned out to be the Pei Family from Shangjing!
Unexpectedly, the Pei Family, which was previously inconspicuous, actually possessed such power that even SS-class warriors could follow their orders. Has the Pei Family beco so formidable? It seems I’ll have to be more cautious in the future!
“That’s right! I am indeed from the Pei Family, and my father is Pei Cangshan of the Pei Family!” Pei Donglai said loudly.
“Pei Cangshan? That old bastard, hasn’t he entered his grave yet?” Ye Xuan raised an eyebrow and said bluntly.
“Haha, thank you for your concern, young man. My father is in good health and living another ten or eight years shouldn’t be a problem! As the current Family Head of the Pei Family, I’m pleased to et such a young hero like you!”
Facing Ye Xuan’s sarcasm, Pei Donglai wasn’t angered at all, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes. Even with his father being insulted, Pei Donglai could still smile. He controls his emotions remarkably well.
It seems that the person holding the position of Pei Family Head is no simple character!
“Family Head Pei, your Pei Family and the Murong Family are unrelated, one in Shangjing and the other in East Sea. Why did you co today, and even make a move against Wanwan? Is it that the Family Head Pei, being an older man, fancies the young lady and wants to engage in open daylight kidnapping? Haha, this is not the conduct of a prestigious family like yours!” Ye Xuan said mockingly with a smile.
“Young man, where are you going with this? I’m old enough to be Miss Murong’s father; how could I have feelings for her, a little girl? We ca this ti without any intention of harming Miss Murong. In fact, it is precisely to ensure her safety that we intend to take her away. This has nothing to do with kidnapping.”
Pei Donglai confidently said, “Currently, the situation of the Murong Family is terrible, surrounded by wolves. The Murong Family, caught among the pack, is in the most dangerous mont! Once the wolves pounce, Miss Murong will undoubtedly be the first to suffer, targeted by others, and that scenario would be extrely dangerous…”
“Therefore, our Pei Family ca this ti to provide Miss Murong with sufficient protection and prevent such a dangerous situation from occurring. Additionally, my son, although living in Shangjing for a long ti, has heard of Miss Murong’s unparalleled beauty and has always admired her!”
“I ca this ti on behalf of my son, to invite Miss Murong to visit the Pei Family and possibly beco friends with my son, Pei Zheng. If possible, if Miss Murong takes a liking to Zheng’er and marries into our Pei Family, it would be a happy occasion. From then on, my Pei Family will protect Miss Murong’s safety, which would be reasonable in all aspects.”
Pei Donglai spoke earnestly.
Ye Xuan snorted, “So after all, it’s the son of the old bastard wanting to eat swan at! And you speak so nobly, inviting soone over? Save that talk for a three-year-old!”
This guy is really shaless, turning sothing like the forced kidnapping of a girl into sothing so grand and admirable!
“Never mind whether your Pei Family has the capability to protect Wanwan, using your son as a shield? If your son really likes her, why didn’t he co himself? Don’t even ntion you have no kinship; even if there were ties, you wouldn’t have the rights to take Wanwan away!”
“Wanwan’s safety is up to the Murong Family to protect. Even if the Murong Family can’t, there’s still , her master! Murong Wanwan is my obedient little maid. When is it your Pei Family’s turn to ddle?”
Bluntly criticizing, Ye Xuan said disdainfully, “Don’t think I don’t know! You want to take Wanwan just to have her under your control as a bargaining chip to exchange for what you desire! Your intentions are as clear as day, you really think you can fool everyone?”
A flicker of darkness flashed in Pei Donglai’s eyes, but his face showed no hint of it.
“Young man, I see you have so prejudice against our Pei Family? I’ve co this ti with absolutely good intentions! Regardless, there’s no need for us to beco enemies. I truly hope to beco friends with you.”
Pei Donglai spread his hands, chuckling, “I love making friends! No matter who they are, as long as they are capable, I’m willing to befriend them. Now, you’ve given that feeling as well, young man; soone like you, I genuinely admire and an what I say from the bottom of my heart.”
“Therefore, as long as we beco friends, you’ll be an honored guest of my Pei Family in the future. You’ll even have access to all the resources of my Pei Family! Moreover, in the path of martial arts, you can access all the collections of the Pei Family and receive guidance from masters. Of course, I don’t have that qualification, but my Pei Family’s Tribute, Grandmaster Qingye, is from the Yan Country Hall! Perhaps you’ve heard of his na.”
After speaking, Pei Donglai smiled at Ye Xuan, his face full of confidence.
Grandmaster Qingye?
As expected, upon hearing this na, Ye Xuan’s expression slightly changed, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes!
He had heard so rumors about the latter. It is said that this Grandmaster Qingye is an Elder in the Elder Council of the Yan Country’s mysterious departnt, Yanhuang Gate!
In terms of martial arts prowess, this person has one foot into the realm of Grandmasters, at least an SSS-level expert, comparable to the peak of Dark Energy consummation, with an incredibly unpredictable level of strength.
But that’s not what makes him fearful; there’s no one in this world who can make him afraid yet!
He was surprised that this Grandmaster Qingye was actually a Tribute of the Pei Family?
