Chapter 137 Still trying to deceive me

  Ye Chen left the three brothers of the Qun family and did not return home directly, but instead found a deserted place to sit down slowly, frowning at the twinkling stars in the sky.

  "Judging from the attitude of the Blue Madman last time, if I go to help the Guan family speak this time, the success rate should not be low!" Ye Chen's eyebrows slowly relaxed, and he let out a gentle breath as he muttered to himself.

  "Brother Chen, what are you thinking about?" A charming figure suddenly appeared beside Ye Chen and said to him.

  Ye Chen slowly turned his head, looking at Liu Yu'er beside him, and smiled slightly, saying: "Yu'er, ask you something?"

  "What did you say?" Liu Yuer's charming smile slowly sat down beside Ye Chen and whispered.

  "You say that a major power, if it wants to manage a city well, must use some extreme measures to control the development of the families within the city?"

  Liu Yuer didn't know what Ye Chen meant by this question, but she still smiled slightly and explained: "This is inevitable. In any place, when some forces start to rise, the dominant force that has always ruled here will inevitably strangle them in their cradle at the moment of their rise. They will not allow any forces that can threaten their rule to appear!"

  Upon hearing this, Ye Chen nodded his head in understanding.

  Liu Yuer looked at Ye Chen's expression and smiled slightly, saying: "Chen Ge, do you know that some big changes are going to happen inside Lan Yu City?"

  "How did you know?" Ye Chen was taken aback and looked at Liu Yuer with suspicion.

  Liu Yuer lightly laughed and said, "Chen Ge, have you forgotten that the master of this Blue Rain City is a member of the Shen family? I used to stay in the Shen family too, how could I not know about these things?"

  Ye Chen smiled helplessly and said, "Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"

  "You didn't ask me! Besides, what's going on here has nothing to do with you!" Liu Yuer said with a hint of grievance.

  "Haha!" Ye Chen smiled and immediately pulled Liu Yuer into his arms, saying softly: "Actually, I didn't plan to intervene. But isn't this for the Guan family?"

  "Brother Chen, do you plan to help the Gu family? They don't have any relation with you either! Although they helped you build a mansion, didn't you fulfill what you promised them?" Liu Yuer asked Ye Chen in puzzlement.

  Ye Chen smiled slightly and turned his head to gaze at the twinkling stars in the sky, saying meaningfully: "Because I understand how they feel now!"

  "What's going on?" Liu Yuer heard Ye Chen's words and felt completely puzzled, and asked even more suspiciously.

  "Helpless and unsupported. Isolated and unaided! Because I've had that kind of feeling too, but it was much better than theirs back then, at least there were people accompanying me!" Ye Chen chuckled and immediately stopped talking, directly pulling Liu Yuer up to her feet, walking towards the direction of the courtyard.

  What Ye Chen said was about the days when he was abandoned by Xufeng in the past!

  Liu Yuer understood Ye Chen's meaning and also didn't speak, she just tightly held Ye Chen's hand and followed him, but in her heart, she was secretly saying: Brother Chen, when you were feeling down before, Xiang Er accompanied you. In the future, when you feel down again, Yuer will definitely be by your side too!

  At the same moment. Inside a secret room in Blue Rain City. Lan Jue and Ouyang Zuo sat facing each other.

  "Brother Mu! I know what you're thinking, but let's wait until we've reorganized Blue Rain City before discussing the final showdown!" Lan Feng smiled coldly as he spoke to Ouyang Mu.

  Ouyang Mu looked at Lan Kuangfeng and also smiled coldly, saying: "Brother Lan! I mean the same thing, after this integration is complete, we should also distinguish between high and low!"

  Blue Crazy Wind said: "Mu brother, now I know that your Ou Yang family has already decided to keep the Xie family safe, but have you forgotten the agreement we made together?"

  "How could I forget this? We agreed that every 15 years, the Blue Rain City would be integrated and our two major forces would unite to eliminate all other forces! But five years ago, do you still remember? Although it wasn't a major integration period at that time, you helped the Guan family rise to power. You dare say you didn't have ulterior motives?" Ouyang Mu sneered.

  Lan Kuangfeng's face sank as he listened to Ouyang Mu's words, saying: "What, Brother Mu wants us two families to be at odds before the integration? Speaking of which, it seems that you also helped the Qun family that time!"

  Ou Yang Mu laughed and said, "Look at what Blue Brother is saying. Behind Blue Brother's back is the Shen family, while behind my back is the Jiang family! This time we are competing for Blue Rain City, it's the intention of both families. If we make the first move, who knows if other families will suddenly buy out some small forces and join hands when we are both wounded?"

  The Jiang family, a big family that is on par with the Shen family, because they live next to each other, their daily struggles have never stopped!

  Lan Feng let out a cold hum and said, "Since you understand, that's good! This Blue Rain City was agreed upon by both families. I'm just afraid that Brother Mu is too eager to win, and when the time comes, someone else will intervene. If that happens, we'll both have trouble explaining it to our families!"

  "Don't worry, Brother Lan, I still have a sense of propriety about this matter!" Ouyang Mu said with a cold smile, and then stood up and turned to walk away.

  Lan Kuangfeng watched as Ouyang Mu's figure disappeared into the distance, let out a cold snort, and then stood up to head off in another direction.

  Ye Chen had guessed that Lan Kuangfeng and Ouyang Mu would join forces to eliminate the other powers, but Ye Chen was only half right! The two major forces in front of him would indeed unite first to destroy the other powers, but a war between them was also inevitable!

  The morning sunlight had just risen when Ye Chen was already standing outside the Blue Rain City Lord's Manor.

  Actually, earlier on, Liu Yuer had originally planned to accompany Ye Chen, but Ye Chen didn't let her. However, Ye Chen told Liu Yuer that if he didn't return at night, it would mean he had encountered danger and she should think of a way to rescue him! This was Ye Chen leaving a back door open. If he had let Liu Yuer accompany him and they encountered danger, although they could have been much safer, but if the opponent was stronger than Liu Yuer, then both of them would be left behind. But by leaving Liu Yuer outside, even if the opponent captured him, Liu Yuer would still think of a way to rescue him!

  At this point in Blue Rain City, with Ye Chen's personality, although Lan Feng is good to him, he still wants to leave a way out for himself! After all, Ye Chen had ruined Lan Tianyu. Who knows if Lan Feng will suddenly go crazy!

  "Tell the city master. Just say Ye Chen has come to visit!" Ye Chen said coldly, looking at the guard standing at the door.

  The guard stared at the young man in front of him, who was actually Ye Chen, the one who had abolished the Shao City Lord. His expression froze, and he subconsciously took a step back before hastily turning around to run towards the inner courtyard.

  Although Lan Kuangfeng had ordered the blockade of all news related to Lan Zhutian, there was no wall that did not leak. Outsiders might not know, but how could these guards and servants in the city lord's mansion not know!

  "Lord, Ye Chen has arrived!" The guard panted and reported to Blue Kuangfeng, who was sitting in the upper seat with his eyes closed.

  Lan Kuangfeng's brow furrowed slightly as he listened to his subordinate's words. He slowly opened his eyes, gazing at the guard in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "He came alone?"

  The guard bowed his head respectfully and said, "Reporting back to the city master, it's just him alone!"

  Lan Kuangfeng thought for a moment before saying, "Let him in!"

  "Yes!"

  He immediately made a respectful bow and turned around to run directly outside.

  Lan Kuangfeng watched as the guard ran out, furrowing his brow. He muttered to himself: "What is he doing here? But it's good that he came, after all, the power behind him might be quite strong. Even if not, there's still Liu Yuer by his side. Now that my war with the Ouyang family is inevitable, having Liu Yuer join me increases my chances of winning greatly. As for Tian'er's matter, let's talk about it later! After all, becoming a useless person might not be a bad thing for her!"

  A moment later, Ye Chen arrived at Blue Crazy Wind's place under the leadership of the guard.

  Lan Kuangfeng saw Ye Chen arrive, and immediately stood up with a smile on his face, saying: "Young Brother Ye, why have you come to my place again today?"

  Ye Chen smiled at Lan Kuangfeng and nodded slightly, then turned his head to glance at the guard without saying a word.

  Lan Kuangfeng understood Ye Chen's meaning and immediately said to the guard at the door, "You go down first! If there's anything, I'll call you!"

  "Yes!"

  The guard had been with the Blue family for many years and was well aware of propriety, knowing that Ye Chen and the city master had matters to discuss, and his presence here would be a hindrance. He immediately bowed respectfully to Lan Kuangfeng, hastily turned around and retreated, not forgetting to close the door tightly behind him.

  Ye Chen watched the guard walk out, then turned around and smiled slightly at Lan Kuangfeng. He didn't put on any airs, but directly found a chair to sit down in, his expression becoming extremely serious.

  Lan Kuangfeng looked at Ye Chen's serious expression, furrowed his brow, and slowly sat back in his original position, waiting for Ye Chen to speak.

  Ye Chen looked at Lan Kuangfeng, took a deep breath, and spoke directly: "Lan brother, I know that this time Blue Rain City will probably have a big change, but I hope you can give me some face and help the Guan family once! It's also a way for me to repay their kindness!"

  Ye Chen knew that Lan Kuangfeng could become the city master, he must be smarter than others. He didn't plan to beat around the bush either, and it's better to get straight to the point! Otherwise, the two of them would waste time with empty words.

  Lan Kuangfeng's eyebrows suddenly furrowed as he listened to Ye Chen's words, his face also turned cold, but in his heart, he was surprised and unbelievable. However, after thinking about it for a moment, he felt relieved. After all, the relationship between Ye Chen and Liu Yuer was not ordinary, so knowing this matter wasn't anything strange.

  "Yè lǎo dì, since you've spoken up! If I were to hide it from Yè lǎo dì, I'd be somewhat unable to justify myself! What Yè lǎo dì said is correct, this time's power redistribution is indeed a major reshuffle. All the powers in Lán Yǔ City, except for me and the ōu Yáng family, will have to eliminate nine out of ten!"

  Ye Chen listened to Lan Kuangfeng's words, furrowed his brow and said softly: "Then the Guan family I mentioned, are they also among those who will be eliminated?"

  Lan Kuangfeng smiled slightly, thought for a moment, and pretended to say to Ye Chen: "Originally, we were going to wipe them out! However, since Brother Ye has spoken up, then please rest assured, I will definitely think of a way to protect the Guan family!"

  "Thank you!" Ye Chen smiled slightly as he listened to Lan Kuangfeng's words, but in his heart, he was thinking: Old fox, still trying to deceive me? Looking at your appearance, I'm afraid it's not necessary for me to say anything, you probably want to protect the Guan family too!
