Chapter 81: The Hermit Clan (2)
The city of Suzhou was quickly restored to its former glory in an afternoon, but those who died innocently could never recover......
Ye Yan imprisoned all the surviving people in the City Lord's Mansion, and those people were willing to serve Ye Yan in order to save their lives.
This time, Ye Yan almost won completely, but without the help of the mysterious woman, the result would have been completely opposite.
The fall of the City Lord's Mansion also made Ye Yan's reputation turn over again, and after explaining to the people in the city, Ye Yan's reputation was promoted from a bounty hunter to a city savior.
Ye Yan also reduced the people's taxes to a minimum, and those less than one hundred taels did not need to pay taxes, and those exceeding one hundred taels only needed two percent.
It was much less than the twenty percent set by the original Water City Lord, and Ye Yan naturally became the most prestigious person in Suzhou City.
With the full support of the Wanpin Chamber of Commerce, the Jin Mansion and the Royal Mansion did not dare to say anything, but there were naturally small actions.
After all, who would want a hairy boy who is no more than eighteen years old to be the city lord, the two mansion masters were the first to disagree, and secretly colluded with each other.
Soon, the Ye family gained a firm foothold in Suzhou City, and Ye Yan also took the opportunity to create a sect called Qingyan Palace.
The origin of this Qingyan Hall was also suddenly thought of by Ye Yan, taking Ye Qing's green and his own Ye Yan's flame.
Ye Yan deliberately placed Ye Qing's green in front of Yan, which naturally also represented the importance of Ye Qing in Ye Yan's heart.
Although Ye Yan understood that Ye Qing was not his own sister, in Ye Yan's heart, Ye Qing was his own sister.
Since then, Ye Yan has been cautious, not daring to say anything at all, Ye Yan is afraid, Ye Yan is afraid that he will lose Ye Qing because of this.
Ye Yan was a little unconfident in his heart, he was afraid that if Ye Qing knew, he would leave him.
Ye Yan is better to Ye Qing, even closer than his own sister.
Next, Ye Yan successfully made the Ye family the biggest force in Suzhou City, but Ye Yan did not dare to underestimate the strength of the Wang Mansion and the Jin Mansion.
The two mansion masters are both scheming, although their strength is lower than that of the previous city lord's mansion, but they can also have a place in Suzhou City, which means that they also have good abilities.
However, under the dependence of the Wanpin Chamber of Commerce, the Jin Mansion and the Royal Mansion did not dare to act rashly, and there was no big move.
Within this month, Ye Yan's strength had also been mentioned in the Xuanying Realm, reaching the bottleneck, and he was only one step away from stepping into the Bigu Realm.
And Gu Yue still hasn't broken through that last hurdle, not to mention the second elder, as he gets older, and his lifespan is not much, it is almost the same.
Ye family, in the meeting hall,
Gu Yue and the second elder were both sitting on the side, Ye Yan was in the middle, looking at the increasingly powerful Ye family, the second elder had a different opinion of Ye Yan in his heart.
Gu Yue also praised unabashedly.
"Patriarch Ye, I didn't expect you to be so young, you are indeed so smart, and you run the Ye family so well. ”
Ye Yan naturally couldn't help but blow each other, and said politely.
"Where, it is still relying on the support of President Gu to have the Ye family today. ”
The second elder coughed lightly and said.
"Polite words are avoided, Patriarch Ye, what are you looking for us to do. ”
Ye Yan nodded, his head towards the vast sky, rubbing the white veil in his hand, and said.
"Do you know who the masked woman who helped us a month ago is?"
Ye Yan also delayed until now to ask, of course, the reason is naturally not because Ye Yan was not at ease, but Ye Yan was too busy and spent all day in government affairs.
The Ye family had just stabilized, and the Qingyan Hall had just been created, so Ye Yan, who had barely had time to find Second Elder Qi and Gu Yue, could only wait until now to ask.
Gu Yue took the white veil from Ye Yan's hand, sniffed it, and looked at the second elder.
The second elder nodded, responded to Gu Yue, and signaled that he could tell Ye Yan.
Gu Yue returned the veil to Ye Yan, stood up, and said.
"I think this woman must be from the hermit clan, and they have to wear a veil when they go out, and they can't take off the veil under the public. ”
"However, if you take off the veil, there is only one possibility, and that is that you are the person they want. ”
"This clan is very strange, only women are accepted, and if they are pregnant, the girls are kept, and the boys are given to the men to raise. ”
"This is the first case in the world, although they are all women, but their strength is extraordinary. ”
"There are three people in this clan who serve in the Ten Heavens Sacred Venerable Temple, and they occupy the whip, the silk, and the fan respectively. ”
The second elder echoed.
"And the third sect is the Liuyun Sect you asked about earlier, and there is only one person in it, and that is the one who wields a sword. ”
"Your father is the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, I told you, the remaining four are scattered among the major sects, and they are all the top ten sects in the world. ”
The second elder naturally didn't know Ye Yan's true life experience, and Ye Yan didn't tell the second elder, so the second elder still thought that the martial arts alliance leader was Ye Yan's father, but in fact, it was not......
Gu Yue asked.
"Why are you asking this, could it be that your kid has taken a fancy to that girl?"
Ye Yan's face flushed, coughed dryly, waved his hand, and said embarrassedly.
"What a thing. ”
Gu Yue looked at Ye Yan in disbelief, snorted coldly, and said with a smile.
"Really?"
Ye Yan didn't continue to answer, but the second elder gave Gu Yue a look, Gu Yue rolled his eyes, and didn't continue to deliberately tease Ye Yan.
Ye Yan seemed a little entangled in his heart, there were two women in his mind, and Ye Yan shook his head.
Ye Yan wanted to slap himself, but Ye Yan now suspected that Mu Yirou was the masked woman.
Ye Yan remembered what Gu Yue said, if Mu Yirou was a masked woman, then ...... Thinking of this, the corners of Ye Yan's mouth couldn't help but rise.
Ye Yan's face returned to seriousness and said.
"I want to go to the Liuyun Sect, there are still two seniors in trouble here. ”
The second elder and Gu Yue didn't ask the reason, what Ye Yan did was also reasonable, if it was a month ago, Gu Yue would definitely question it.
But now, Gu Yue only secretly handed Ye Yan some life-saving pills and some silver taels.
Gu Yue patted Ye Yan's shoulder and said.
"I gave you some pills to save your life and some silver taels, and I'll give them to my cousin and me here. ”
The second elder smiled and nodded to Ye Yan, naturally knowing what Ye Yan was watching out for, and said.
"Don't worry, Xiaoqing, I will take care of it. ”
Ye Yan bowed to the two seniors with emotion, tears rolled in his eyes, and said.
"Thank you two, I, Ye Yan, will repay the grace of dripping water. ”
Gu Yuewan smiled and said.
"No, you just need to pay me back the money for the mansion. ”
The second elder nodded with satisfaction and said.
"Go, you have your own way to go, besides, your father is a genius, you will definitely surpass your father, come on!"
Ye Yan wiped his tears, stood in front of the two stone lions, turned his head, waved his hand, and muttered in his mouth.
"Xiaoqing, waiting for my brother to come back, and forgiving my brother for saying goodbye, I'm afraid, I'm afraid...... When I saw you, I was reluctant to leave. ”
