Chapter 129: Before the Rainstorm
"Qingyin, you have to look like you are eating!"
A table of fine wine and delicacies is laid out, full of color, aroma and flavor, and the whole room is also filled with the aroma of food.
The girl in Tsing Yi lay on the table, holding the vegetables in one hand and the broth in the other, eating in large gulps, completely without her previous innocence and innocence, and she was a dry rice person.
In such a scene, Ye Chen could only sigh helplessly, and casually picked up the dishes and chopsticks to pick up the dishes in front of him.
But the young man who had been hungry for three days had exhausted his last strength when he faced Lin Xian outside the Zhenjiang Division's office.
The chopsticks fell to the ground, looked left and right, and found that there were no outsiders in the room, so he rolled up his sleeves without hesitation and pounced on the delicacies on the table......
"Young Master, hmm... Don't!"
The girl's face was flushed, there were tears in the corners of her eyes, the dishes on the table were almost eaten, and her pair of jade hands were dragging a leg of mutton bone, her pink red lips were stained with the residue of the food, her eyebrows were slightly frowned, and her forehead was dripping with sweat, which showed her hard work.
"Qing Yin! This is the last piece of lamb shank, and I haven't eaten yet, so you can give it to me!"
Opposite her, Ye Chen grabbed the long bone at the other end of the leg of mutton and gritted his teeth.
With a power that surpasses the middle and late stages of the Divine Treasure Realm, he can't snatch a leg of mutton from the hands of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, and if it is passed out, he will inevitably lose the face of the cultivator.
"Give it to me!"
"No!"
The two competed, no matter how good they were.
Moments later, however, hurried footsteps could be heard outside the house.
"Who?"
Ye Chen noticed that his footsteps were getting closer and closer, and his eyes narrowed for a moment, and his expression suddenly became vigilant.
Followed by.
"Ahh
"Bang ———"
Ye Chen and the leg of mutton bounced out and fell to the ground. Qing Yin let go of the jade hand, looked at the middle-aged man who stopped in a hurry outside the house with an innocent expression, and then said to Ye Chen aggrievedly, "Give this leg of mutton to the young master."
The leg of mutton fell, covered in dust, and could not be eaten directly, Ye Chen pulled the corners of his mouth, picked up the leg of mutton, and said helplessly, "Okay then."
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked out of the house.
The middle-aged man who came in a hurry was the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion, Lin Die, and the delicacies that had been eaten on the table in the room were exactly what Lin Die had entrusted by Lin Shaoguo to prepare for Ye Chen and Qing Yin.
Seeing Lin Die's anxious look, Ye Chen put down the leg of mutton, wiped his hands, stepped forward, stood in front of Qing Yin, and said respectfully, "Steward Lin, what's wrong?"
"Ye Gongzi, you and Miss Qingyin should hide, someone is coming from the imperial capital." Lin Di walked into the room and carefully closed the door, his voice extremely low.
"Someone from the imperial capital?" Ye Chen was slightly puzzled and said, "How could the Stargazing Academy know so quickly that I had arrived in Beizhou?"
Between Beizhou and Nanzhou, there is Zhongzhou, the largest of the five states of Tianfeng, if it weren't for Xingying's exhaustion of cultivation to activate the secret method of the star field, even if it was to use the rune array in Tianfeng to teleport, it would take ten days to cross Zhongzhou.
And since the battle between Yunhe City and Helou Yun, it has only been four days, and it is not reasonable for the Stargazing Academy to be so seamless.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen groaned, "It shouldn't be."
Lin Di also felt strange about Ye Chen's reaction and the words he said to himself, he thought for a moment and wondered, "Why did Ye Gongzi say that he said Stargazing Academy?"
Hearing this, Ye Chen frowned and said calmly, "Steward Lin said that someone from the imperial capital came, isn't it the elders of the Stargazing Academy who came?"
"Where is the book elder! The one who came to Beizhou from the imperial capital was the young master Ye Zhun of the Ye clan, escorted all the way by three strong men. Ye Gongzi! The commander said that there is a big misunderstanding between you and the Ye clan, and I have specially asked you to inform you and Miss Qingyin not to go out for the time being, and try to avoid the limelight."
Speaking of this, Lin Die swallowed his saliva and continued, "The Commander also said that after the young master of the Ye clan leaves, he will find a way to send you out of the Beizhou border pass and to the Panlong Empire."
"Clams? go
The Coiling Dragon Empire?"
These words slowly came out of Lin Die's mouth, and the more Ye Chen listened to it, the more incredible he felt, and finally as expected, a Coiling Dragon Empire appeared, which had to surprise the young man unexpectedly.
"The Ye clan isn't that scary, isn't it a bit of a fuss to send me out of Tianfeng to the Panlong Empire?" Ye Chen questioned.
Lin Di shook his head and said, "Not at all, presumably Young Master Ye still doesn't know the status of the Ye clan in the imperial capital in Tianfeng."
"Status ......" Ye Chen tugged at the corners of his mouth, "The Imperial Xiao Clan, the Imperial Capital Ye Clan, the Divine Palace, the Yun Hesu Family, and the four major forces of the Empire, are there any others?"
"More than that." Lin Di continued to shake his head, "Maybe a month ago, it would have been possible to say this like Ye Gongzi, but now it can't."
Slowly taking out a letter from his arms, Lin Di explained: "This is what the commander asked me to hand over to you, and the Lord said that the lives of the eldest and second miss were saved by you, and even if you spare your life this time, he will save you."
"What are these words?" What Lin Di said, the more Ye Chen listened, the more strange he felt.
He opened the letter and read it.
After a moment, the young man suddenly frowned and exclaimed, "What is the guardian spirit?"
The handwriting in the letter was sloppy, obviously written by Lin Shaoguo in a very anxious situation, and the content probably explained that the purpose of the so-called young master sent by the Ye clan in the imperial capital to Beizhou was to take over the position of the Lin family in the Zhenjiang Division.
Ye Chen still felt strange about this, because although the Xiao clan of the imperial family and the Ye clan of the imperial capital were monarchs and ministers, they were essentially very limited by the three divisions under the royal family due to the open and secret struggle between the forces.
In other words, except for the Demon Suppression Division, the royal family would hardly let anyone related to the Ye Clan take up the other two divisions, let alone the position of commander of the Beizhou Border Pass Zhenjiang Division, which was related to the survival of the Tianfeng Empire.
However, when Ye Chen continued to read the letter, he suddenly understood the reason, and also discovered something unheard of - the Ye Clan's guardian spirit.
These six words made Ye Chen have to think of the fox demon in the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, Luo Ling Girl.
The half-demon fox clan, Luo Ling, who cultivated in the Yuan Shen Realm, used to be the Tianjiao of the half-demon fox clan, but now he is the guardian saint of a half-demon tribe in the Spirit Beast Mountain Range.
"It seems that the Ye Clan's guardian deity mentioned in the letter is probably a powerful half-demon cultivator similar to Sister Luo Ling." Ye Chen pondered in his heart.
He put away the letter and said in a low voice, "Steward Lin, do you know what the situation is right now on the side of the Zhenjiang Division?"
"This ...... The villain really didn't know, but when he came back from the Yamen, the villain met the young master of the Ye clan, he had just arrived at the Zhenjiang Division, and the villain's first feeling was that the Ye clan was not good, if nothing else, the three people who accompanied the young master of the Ye clan were all strong people in the high realm."
"A High Realm powerhouse? What kind of cultivation is it?" Hearing the sound, Ye Chen was even more puzzled.
He knew that the young master of the Ye clan in the imperial capital was probably Ye Zhun, the cowardly and unscrupulous man who was not to be feared at all. Z.br>
But the strong man who accompanied him, it's hard to say.
How much, or need to be treated with caution.
In particular, the purpose of the Imperial Capital Ye Clan's trip is to take over the position of the commander of the Zhenjiang Division, and it must be impossible to replace the emperor without pressure if he wants to do anything about the orders of the generals outside.
Therefore, the Ye clan would definitely send a strong person who could overwhelm Lin Shaoguo to accompany him, and at least one of those people must be in the Purple Mansion Realm.
"What realm...... The villain didn't understand, but he felt that two of the three entourages had a temperament and command that made the adults very similar, and another villain would feel palpitations when he passed by him."
"Heart palpitations?"
Ye Chen said in a deep voice: "It seems that it is right, Steward Lin, you have been by Commander Lin's side for so many years, and you have almost no feeling for the oppression of the Lingxuan at the peak of the Divine Hidden Realm, and what can make your heart palpitate is at least to set foot in the Purple Mansion Primal Realm."
"The First Realm of the Purple Mansion?!" Lin Die was shocked, "Wouldn't that be the top ten powerhouses of the empire!"
"Yes." Ye Chen wrote lightly, "And the other two are also among the powerhouses of the Empire, at least they are also cultivators at the peak of the Divine Treasure Realm."
"So many powerhouses?! Doesn't that mean that he is in danger, my lord?" Hearing this, Lin Die was shocked.
