Chapter 134: Xie Ji Comes to Visit
Ye Chen adapted to the power brought by the breakthrough on the slope, and immediately turned around and walked towards home. According to his estimate, it shouldn't be long before someone from the Xie family came!
Sure, here is the translation:
As expected, Ye Chen had just walked to his own home's entrance when he saw two groups of people standing at the door, glaring at each other with swords drawn!
One of them was the leader of the third group, with a large number of people, after all, many members of the Yun family were here to help Ye Chen's family build their mansion.
On the other hand, a group of people led by an old man followed behind him. There were only five or six people in total, but Ye Chen could tell at a glance that their cultivation levels were not low. They were actually the ones he had met the day before, including the steward of the Xie family, Xie Ji.
"Xie Ji, what are you doing here?" Qun San said in a low voice as he looked at Xie Ji in front of him. From his understanding of Xie Ji, he knew that although the old man was advanced in age, his cultivation was not to be underestimated. Among his three brothers, only his eldest brother Qun Wei could surpass him, otherwise, when he saw Xie Ji, he would have directly struck out and sent him flying back.
Xie Ji looked at Qun San in front of him and sneered, "What business is it of yours?"
"You!" Qun San's face turned red with anger, and he said: "What is your status, dare to speak to me like this?"
"Haha, although I'm just a servant, I'm a servant of the Xie family, not one of your families. Do you have the right to control how I speak?"
Xie Jizhang's crazy smile, in fact, if he were to let himself and Qun San take action, although his own cultivation could completely crush Qun San, but Qun San was after all the third elder of the Qun family, with a different status. Moreover, under the current circumstances, if he were to move against Qun San, Qun Wei and Qun Yu would certainly come knocking on his door, fighting to the death.
"Haha, what a lively scene! What are you guys doing?"
Ye Chen watched as the two sides were on the verge of a fight, knowing he had to intervene. Otherwise, a brawl would erupt soon. Not to mention others, just the presence of Qun San and Xie Ji, two Yuan Dan realm cultivators, was enough to annihilate this dilapidated Ye Village.
Qian San Yi heard the voice and immediately lit up, running over to Ye Chen and saying: "Brother Ye, you're just in time. Tell me, are these people from the Xie family here to cause trouble for you? With just one word from Brother Ye, I'll chase them away at once!"
Qun San spoke while cautiously watching Xie Ji, after all he wasn't his opponent!
Ye Chen listened to Qun San's words and smiled as he shook his head.
"Master Ye, I've told you before that I would personally visit your doorstep in a few days. Today, I'm here, and you won't turn me away at the door, will you? Haha!" Xie Ji listened to Gou San's words, smiled coldly, and completely ignored him, walking directly to Ye Chen's side and whispering...
Ye Chen looked at Xie Ji and smiled slightly, saying: "How could that be! A noble guest has arrived, how could I possibly refuse you entry?"
As soon as Ye Chen said this, Guan San's heart tightened and he quickly pulled Ye Chen to one side, saying in a low voice: "Brother Ye, what do you mean by this?"
Ye Chen glanced at Xie Ji, who didn't follow him, and smiled slightly towards Qun San. He said in a low voice: "Brother Qun San, are you afraid I'll help them? Ha ha, just put your mind at ease! As for the City Lord's place, I've already made arrangements for the Qun family's affairs. Don't worry, since the Xie family is your enemy, they're also my enemy. Do you understand what I mean?"
Qun San Yi was stunned for a moment before he smiled slightly and looked at Ye Chen with surprise, saying in a low voice: "Brother Ye's meaning is to trick them once?"
"Shh!" Ye Chen nodded slightly, with a look that said "you know I know, heaven knows, earth knows, it's enough", and spoke softly.
"Haha! Alright, I understand!" Group Three smiled faintly at Ye Chen and turned to the numerous slaves behind him, saying: "Nothing's going on here, everyone can go back to work now!"
Then, the three of them disappeared in front of Ye Chen along with the crowd.
Ye Chen watched as Qun San left, smiled slightly, and then turned to walk in front of Xie Ji, saying softly: "Housekeeper Xie, please come inside!"
Xie Ji didn't know what Ye Chen had just said to make the third one suddenly happy, and he slightly frowned, saying in a low voice: "Young Master Ye, what did you mean by that? You should understand our intention for coming here this time!"
"Understood! Understood!" Ye Chen smiled and nodded, then directly walked into the house.
Xie Ji looked at Ye Chen without answering him and immediately followed him in, instructing the people who came with him to wait for him at the door.
"Mr. Ye, let's be straightforward and not beat around the bush. This time I've come to offer you a gift, and I hope you can abandon the Guo family and stand on our side!"
Xie Ji looked at Ye Chen who was sitting on the upper seat with a leisurely expression and said in a low voice.
Ye Chen smiled slightly, shrugged his shoulders and said lazily: "Thanks to Guan Jia, look at what you're saying. If the group builds a mansion for me, if I let them leave, what about my mansion?"
Xie Ji furrowed his brow and understood the meaning behind Ye Chen's words, then said: "Young Master Ye, state your conditions! As long as we can do it, we definitely won't decline!"
"Haha! Thanks for the reminder, Butler! I'm just a cultivator at the Gathering Qi realm, what conditions could I possibly have? Once this mansion is built, I'll need to figure out where to buy furniture and decorations. Hope you can introduce me to some good places!"
Ye Chen has no intention of spending a single penny himself now!
Xie Jiayi listened to Ye Chen's words, pretending to think on his face, but secretly smiled in his heart, thinking: Fortunately, I came this time, and I have already obtained the master's permission, promising to give him a set of furniture!
"Master Ye, if you trust me, then let me handle this matter. I guarantee that after your mansion is built, I will deliver a complete set of furniture to you!" Xie Ji said firmly to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, "Isn't this a trouble for Manager Xie?"
"Heh heh, Lord Ye is being polite. These are all trivial matters. I wonder what Lord Ye thinks about the re-distribution of power in Blue Rain City a month from now?"
Ye Chen said quietly: Old fox, you've finally spoken up!
"Thanks for the concern, but you also saw that I've been living outside the city. Besides, I just got back not long ago, and the power within Blue Rain City has already been redistributed. What opinion could I possibly have?" Ye Chen lazily leaned back into his chair.
Xie Ji narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "You little brat, you dare to give me a riddle? Hmph! If we succeed this time, you'll be the one who's in trouble!"
Ye Chen looked at Xie Ji's slightly closed eyes and sneered in his heart: Old fox!
Xie Ji smiled slightly and said: "Master Ye is being modest, if you are willing to help us speak a few words in front of the city master, isn't that enough?"
"Oh, I see!" Ye Chen said with a look of sudden realization: "In that case, I'll go and try to help you? But if it doesn't work out, don't blame me, after all, I'm not very familiar with the city lord either!"
"Good!" Xie Ji Yi's face lit up with joy as soon as he heard Ye Chen respond, and he hastily said.
Ye Chen smiled and said: "Thank you, Manager, for being so polite. If there's nothing else, then you can go down first!"
"Well, I'm leaving!" As soon as the words fell, Xie Ji's face slightly cooled down and he continued to say: "Ye Gongzi, since you have already agreed with us, please don't be two-faced, otherwise it will not be good for everyone!"
Xie Ji finished speaking and immediately turned around to leave! Originally, he didn't plan to say that sentence, but when he saw Ye Chen at the door with Qun San's attitude, he had a bad premonition. In order to prevent Ye Chen from accepting the gift but not doing anything, he had to intimidate Ye Chen a bit!
Ye Chen listened to Xie Ji's intimidation and didn't say much, until he watched Xie Ji leave with his back turned. His face slightly chilled, muttering to himself: "It seems I underestimated the Xie family, this old man is definitely not a simpleton. If things aren't handled properly this time, I'm afraid there will be some trouble in my household after I leave! Never mind, let's take it one step at a time. Anyway, I have Yuer by my side now, plus the help of the Guan family brothers and the city master, who knows who'll go to whom in the end!"
