Chapter 16: Crisis
"What did you say?!"
The shock that this news brought to Xu Yichao was no less than hearing Gao Xu, the head of the Deception Sect, tell him that the Yanhuang bloodline could inherit his memory, and it was even more surprising to him than that news.
He originally planned to wait for this stage of the matter to pass before asking Xu Fu about this matter, and how the previous arrangements were going, but he didn't expect that he would come to him first.
"I'm sorry, young master", I saw Xu Fu lower his head and said with a look of shame, "I just got the news that those three guys have disappeared." ”
Missing?
Xu Yichao took two deep breaths, eased his mentality, and then asked:
"Tell me what's going on. ”
"Yes. ”
Xu Fu didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly explained in detail:
"Originally, I had already asked people to keep an eye on the three of them separately according to your instructions, young master, but I just got the news, just three days ago, they lost Xiao Lin with them. ”
"Didn't you say that he no longer had any cultivation?
Xu Yichao couldn't help but be a little suspicious of the level of the Xu family, he knew that sending someone to deal with Xiao Lin was to send experience, but you wouldn't even be able to keep an eye on people, right?
"The exact circumstances are unknown, but our men last saw him go to the black market for medicinal herbs in the west, and he has been missing since that time. ”
Is there a black market for medicinal herbs......
Hearing this, Xu Yichao could probably guess that this true genius might have begun his rise to the top, and according to the normal routine, it is very likely that this person has already begun to develop towards alchemy.
"Tell me about the other two. ”
Xu Yichao sighed and said, let's figure out what happened first.
Xu Fu knew that Xu Yichao was in a bad mood at the moment, and when he heard Xu Yichao ask, he replied very quickly:
"It was also three days ago that the kid who was kicked out by the housekeeper entered the black forest on the border between our Zhao and Wei countries, and then lost the news.
Our men followed, but the birds of prey in the forest were so powerful that they grew stronger the deeper we went, and many of us were wounded, so we had to retreat. ”
Speaking of this, he also put forward his own opinion by the way, "Young master, that kid is just an ordinary house slave, even those long-trained people in our house can't go deeper into the forest, I'm afraid that kid is already dead." ”
"Don't worry, even if all the people who follow him die, he won't be able to die", Xu Yichao shook his head with a wry smile, and added another sentence in his heart, I wonder if he can still get adventures there.
After all, it is a dangerous situation for others, and it is a treasure of feng shui for the protagonist.
"What about Ye Liangchen, how is he?"
Xu Yichao said and asked about the person who had the deepest grudge against him.
Three days ago, Ye Mansion, which was a few streets away from Xu's Mansion.
Ye Liangchen, the second young master of the Ye family, was discussing secretly with the housekeeper Ye Chen.
"Is the news confirmed?"
"It's confirmed, Xu Yichao has woken up!"
"Okay, just wake up, I'm afraid he won't wake up!"
Ye Liangchen clenched his fists fiercely.
"Young Master...... You ......"
"It's okay, Uncle Ye, you don't have to worry about me, I won't directly confront the Xu family now, but it won't be long before I will return what Xu Yichao gave me, ten or a hundred times more to him!"
Looking at this second young master who he had watched and grown up since he was a child, Ye Chen, the old housekeeper of the Ye Mansion, felt a little strange for a while.
A hundred years ago, the entire Leizhou was under the rule of the Jin Kingdom, but unfortunately this once powerful country had also come to its end at that time.
There are many families in the country, the monarch has been reduced to an ornament, and the families are fighting to the death for power, and the radicals have even played out their brains.
In the end, the three families of Zhao, Wei, and Han stood out, not only defeating the other families, but also directly dividing up the Jin Kingdom to form three new countries.
Since then, Leizhou has become a situation where three vassal states stand together.
But this is the norm, there are very few states on the Kyushu continent that can be ruled by an independent regime, after all, the Kyushu continent is too big, and it is normal for a state to have dozens of countries.
For example, Yunzhou, which is adjacent to Leizhou, has a full thirteen vassal states - and this does not include some small countries.
After the three families were divided, the previous big families naturally declined, but the hundred-legged insects died but did not stiffen, and there were still a few families that survived tenaciously in that political whirlpool.
The Ye family is one of them.
It's just that the current Ye family can't be compared with when they were in the Jin Kingdom a hundred years ago, at best, it is just an ordinary big family.
"Young Master......"
Retracting his thoughts, Ye Chen looked at his second young master, and stopped talking.
Thinking that since the young master woke up, he would never regain his previous appearance, not only changed his name to Ye Liangchen, but also claimed that he wanted to live with his eldest brother Ye Liang, who had already died, and his talent became extremely high, and the speed of cultivation made Ye Chen, a master of the acquired realm, dumbfounded.
If this continues, maybe Ye Liangchen will really be able to revive the glory of the Ye family back then! It's just ......
His personality has changed a little too much.
Although Ye Chen was scheming in the past, he didn't have any scheming, and it was precisely because of this that he would be jealous of Xu Yichao on the street in order to grab the girl.
Although Ye Liangchen is still as respectful as before when facing Ye Chen, Ye Chen can feel that there is a crazy heart hidden behind his smiling face.
Especially as time went by, Ye Chen felt more and more that he couldn't see through his young master.
"Young Master, are you ...... Do you really want to go?"
"Well, Xu Yichao is already sober, there is a chance that people like him will provoke again, I don't want to be false and wronged, nor do I want to fall out with the Xu family now, so leaving here is the best choice", he looked at Ye Chen and said, "What do you say, Ye Bo?"
Ye Chen let out a long sigh when he heard this, "If it weren't for the old man who saved me, the old man would have been a dead man, no matter what the young master wants to do, the old man will support him." ”
"That's good, Uncle Ye, the Ye family will be handed over to you for the time being. ”
After saying this, Ye Liangchen retracted his gaze and said secretly in his heart:
Since God has let this seat come to this world and occupy the body of this kid surnamed Ye, it is up to this seat to avenge you!
When this seat returns again, it will be the time when the kid's family surnamed Xu is destroyed!
At this moment, Ye Chen didn't know that the Ye Liangchen in front of him was no longer the Ye Chen he was familiar with.
Of course, not only Ye Chen, but Xu Yichao is no longer the Xu Yichao he used to be.
