Elder Yang Ba was wrong about one thing.
It was not that his status was lower than Yang Chen’s, but that he should not have provoked Yang Chen in every way during the critical moment of the Hundred Clans Trial Battle.
However, how could Elder Yang Ba understand? Although he now submitted to
Yang Jinhe’s authority, the malice in his eyes did not diminish much.
His gaze converged on Yang Chen.
Originally, his targeting of Yang Chen was only because of Elder Yang, but now, he truly harbored deep hatred for Yang Chen.
“Hmph, I hope you can really enter the top 30 and qualify to enter the Monster Beast Mountain. Otherwise, when you return to the Yang family, I will make it hard for you.” Elder Yang Ba thought secretly.
In the end, Yang Chen received the reward given by Yang Jinhe in advance, and then he got up and left.
He didn’t want to stay in such a miasma-filled place any longer.
However, when he thought he could have some peace after returning home, he found that he was very wrong.
Because a figure stood in his courtyard. The man’s face was full of sycophantic smiles and servile gestures, and upon closer inspection, it was none other than Zhou Huaiyi, who had once betrayed him.
“Zhou Huaiyi, get out of here now!” Gu Mingyue stood in the courtyard, fuming with anger.
She was truly disgusted by Zhou Huaiyi’s face.
Such a scolding naturally caught Yang Chen’s attention first, and he looked over. He saw that Zhou Huaiyi didn’t know when he had entered his courtyard and was eagerly helping Gu Mingyue with the chores, looking very efficient.
Yang Chen was so angry that he laughed, but he didn’t rush to speak up, instead wanting to see what Zhou Huaiyi was trying to do.
Zhou Huaiyi was busying himself in Yang Chen’s courtyard, tidying up one side after another, as if he had resumed his former duties under Yang Chen. Even while working so hard, he was very attentive to Gu Mingyue, appearing like a kind elder.
While doing all these things, Zhou Huaiyi quickly noticed Yang Chen.
When he saw Yang Chen, Zhou Huaiyi was momentarily stunned, and then quickly smiled ingratiatingly, “Young Master, you’re back? I’ll clean up the courtyard right away so as not to affect your cultivation mood.”
Yang Chen knew full well what Zhou Huaiyi was thinking. When he saw Zhou Huaiyi being so attentive to him, he narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “Zhou
Huaiyi, when did I allow you to enter my house?”
“Young Master, I am… I am your servant, aren’t I?” Zhou Huaiyi flashed an awkward smile and then said forcefully.
Yang Chen sneered, “Zhou Huaiyi, I really underestimated your thick skin. If I remember correctly, you should be Yang Heng’s servant now, right?
Theoretically, you should be in Yang Heng’s courtyard, so why are you here?”
Hearing this, Zhou Huaiyi’s face changed slightly, but given his thick skin, he had prepared himself before ing.
At this moment, he hastily said, “Young Master, going to Yang Heng’s was nothing more than a momentary confusion. After thinking about it, I still feel that Young Master Yang Chen’s place is the most suitable for me, Zhou Huaiyi.”
“So you betrayed Yang Heng again and turned to me?” Yang Chen touched his chin, asking with interest.
“Yes, Yang Heng is placent, idle all day, and does nothing. I was blinded for a moment and actually let him bewitch me. Young Master, you must believe me. If I, Zhou Huaiyi, hadn’t been bewitched by him for a moment, how could I have mitted such stupid acts back then?” Zhou Huaiyi said with teeth gritted in hatred, as if he truly felt Yang Heng was a disappointment.
Yang Chen laughed.
He really did laugh.
“Zhou Huaiyi, if I remember correctly, you also spoke to me like this when you pledged allegiance to Yang Heng. And you seemed to have said that the name Zhou Huaiyi contains the characters ‘Huaiyi’ which mean loyalty. So when you serve your master, you will be absolutely loyal, right?” Yang Chen said coldly.
Zhou Huaiyi stiffened, hurriedly wanting to explain further.
But soon, Yang Chen said expressionlessly, “Or you think this place is your home? You e and go as you please. Zhou Huaiyi, it seems you haven’t gotten a clear picture. I’ve said it before, Yang Chen doesn’t care if I have one more or one less of you. You should think carefully about what you have that I would value.”
Hearing this, Zhou Huaiyi was pletely scared.
He was afraid that Yang Chen would not take him in again, so he hurriedly kowtowed, not caring about his dignity, and knelt on the ground.
As he knelt, Zhou Huaiyi kowtowed in fear, “Young Master, you must not refuse to take me in. I betrayed Yang Heng this time and have nothing left. All I
wanted was to e back under your mand. That day, it was just a moment of confusion. If you don’t take me in, I’ll really have nowhere to go.”
He regretted it now.
If he had known about Yang Chen’s talent earlier, how could he have chosen to betray Yang Chen back then?
If only he had stayed a little longer, just two more months, that would have been enough.
At least when Yang Chen saw his loyalty, the benefits to him would not be less, right?
As the saying goes, one person bees successful and even his pets prosper.
Look at how beautiful Gu Mingyue is now, even though she is also a servant. Zhou Huaiyi and Gu Mingyue are like heaven and earth!
It was because he saw all of this that he chose to e back to Yang Chen’s side.
What status did Yang Heng have in the Yang family now?
After the ing of Age Ceremony, Yang Heng received very few resources, not to mention that he was extremely harsh in treating the servants. Even asking for some Spirit Stones from him was harder than climbing to the sky.
But Yang Chen was different. He made a big splash at the ing of Age Ceremony, and he would definitely receive a lot of resources and Spirit Stones. At that time, even if Yang Chen only gave him a little, it would be enough for him to squander.
He thought that he had done a good job working under Yang Chen before and that, given Yang Chen’s different status now, he wouldn’t hold a grudge.
However, he was wrong.
Yang Chen said expressionlessly, “Zhou Huaiyi, do you know what I hate the most in my life?”
“Betrayal!”
He still held a grudge against Hua Wanru and had not forgotten it.
When Yang Chen’s martial arts cultivation reached its peak, it would be time to take Hua Wanru’s dog’s life! Now, he was just letting that woman live a few more days.
Yang Chen said coldly without a hint of warmth in his tone, “Zhou Huaiyi, my words are very clear. If you don’t leave now, the oute… you know.” Zhou Huaiyi stood there in a daze, his eyes filled with despair.
He knew that he had ultimately missed the opportunity to show his devotion when it mattered most.
It was too late.
Now. without Yang Chen and having left Vang Heng. his reptitation was already stinking.. How could he continue to mix in the Yang family?
