In the evening, the sun had set and it was getting dark.

In the Yejiazhuang Mansion, a young man in sackcloth shuttled at will, ignoring the abnormal gazes of other clansmen, and finally stopped in front of a courtyard located in the southeast corner.

Unlike other mansions, this courtyard does not have any plaques, it looks empty, and there are few people around who stay at random, which is the residence of Ye Yi and his brother Ye Yu.

This young man was Ye Yi, he had just had dinner with Ye Yue, and after chatting for a while, he came back. didn't wait for the second uncle to send back the news, the family elders were not so simple, and they couldn't be decided in an hour or two.

Ye Yi stood in front of the courtyard and was about to push open the courtyard door, when he saw a subordinate standing in front of the courtyard gate with a probe in his head, still holding a box in his hand, and was about to knock on the door to enter.

Looking at the clothes of this subordinate, Ye Yi was instantly annoyed, and directly pulled away the subordinate, and scolded in his mouth, "Who asked you to come here?"

Hearing the scolding in his ears, the subordinate also stopped the movements in his hand, turned his body, and glanced at Ye Yi lightly, his triangular eyes were full of disdain, "I came to visit Miss Xiaolian on the order of Young Master Ye Long, what does it matter to you?"

Hearing this, Ye Yi immediately reacted, he forgot about this matter, Ye Long not only disagreed with him, but also coveted his maid.

In the past, when he was here, Ye Long didn't dare to come nonsense, but he didn't expect that as soon as he came back, he saw the people sent by Ye Long, but I was afraid that during the time he was away, Ye Long was afraid that he would send people to pay his respects.

Thinking of this, Ye Yi said angrily directly, "Go back and tell Ye Long that Xiaolian doesn't need him to visit, and Xiaolian won't follow him, so don't bother with it." ”

Hearing this, the subordinate raised his triangular eyes again, and actually fell to Ye Yishu, "What Young Master Ye Long wants to do, it's not up to you to manage, remember, you are just a subordinate now, if you are the master, you are not qualified to say more." ”

Looking at the disdainful gaze of the subordinate, Ye Yi was angry, and actually laughed, "Am I a subordinate, it's not your turn to talk more." ”

Listening to Ye Yi's ridicule, Triangle Eyes didn't get angry, but said lightly, "It seems that you have been sitting in a high position for a long time, and you are really carried away, even if you have cultivated to the fourth level of Qi refining since this month, what is the use of that? Can you cultivate to the condensation period after a month?"

Hearing this, a thunderbolt crossed Ye Yi's mind, Ye Yi hesitated instantly, he actually forgot a very important matter, and this matter was enough to decide the fate of him and Xiaolian!

Looking at Ye Yi's expression, the subordinate instantly understood, and said again, "A month later, it will be the family crown ceremony, not all sixteen-year-old family disciples can participate, even if you can cultivate, what can you do? ”

"And you're just a loser, you can't even keep your own woman, so you're ready to stay in the family for the rest of your life and bear the name of waste. ”

"Hahahaha" After the triangular eyes finished speaking, he directly pushed away Ye Yi who was blocking in front of him, laughed loudly, and left directly.

"Do you already know everything so quickly?" Seeing the triangular eyes leave, Ye Yi clenched his fists, and he didn't make a move after all, he had just left the Elixir Cliff, and even Ye Long's subordinates already knew about his cultivation, and he really took great pains to deal with himself.

"Family Crown Ceremony" Ye Yi tightened his fists and turned around vigorously, not caring about the pain in his palm. Family crown ceremony, he naturally knows what is going on.

The Ye Family Crown Ceremony is an adult ceremony prepared for the disciples of the family from the age of sixteen to eighteen, and only the disciples of the Ye family in the condensation period can participate.

This is not the point, the point is that the five great Tianjiao can freely choose their entourage, and they can even take their subordinates to Qinglin Road together, if they can get results, they can go to the imperial capital of the Dynasty and even other roads, and have a good time!

And Ye Long, he didn't know there, with his strength, it would be no problem to win the name of the Ye family's five great heavenly prides at that time. And with Ye Long's nature, he will definitely take Xiaolian away when the time comes.

He didn't know if Ye Long was sincere to Xiaolian, but based on the intolerable battle between him and Ye Long in the past ten years, Ye Yi understood that Ye Long's move was clearly to make himself miserable!

In addition, Xiaolian is his playmate since childhood, and it is also his reverse scale, once Ye Long succeeds, he will definitely make himself miserable, this kind of thing is definitely what Ye Long is happy to see.

And even if Ye Long is sincere to Xiaolian, Xiaolian doesn't like him at all, and even dislikes him very much, once Xiaolian is taken away by him, he will definitely be in pain, he will definitely not watch this kind of thing happen!

Thinking of this, Ye Yi looked up at the sky, his eyes were full of bloodshots, and he actually became ruthless again: Ye Long, you don't know what to do, you actually provoke me again and again, even if I am not your opponent, I will not let you have a good time!

After making up his mind, Ye Yi directly pushed open the courtyard door and walked in, no matter what, the first priority at the moment is to cultivate to the condensation period, and then participate in the family crown ceremony to resolve Ye Long's ambitions.

As long as he can cultivate to the condensation period, participate in the Ye family's crown ceremony, and get the recognition of the family, even if he can't get the ranking, Ye Long will never dare to do anything wrong, as for taking Xiaolian away, it is impossible to happen.

As for the fact that only the disciples of the Ye family can participate in the crown ceremony, he doesn't have to care at all, as long as he cultivates to the condensation period, not to talk about the identities of his grandfather and second uncle, just by virtue of his brother's prestige, even if the great elder and grandfather are on the wrong path and oppose it, there are not many elders in the family elder council to support it!

In the courtyard, Ye Yi just walked in, and saw a lazy girl, sitting on the wooden steps in front of the house, leaning back on the house, her eyes slightly closed, as if she was taking a nap, but even so, she couldn't stop her beautiful face!

Above the fourteen or fifteen-year-old figure, he is dressed in maid clothes, this person is Ye Yi's personal maid Xiaolian, and she is also the object of Ye Long's coveting!

Listening to the sound of footsteps walking in, the girl opened her hazy eyes, and saw the person in front of her, on the delicate pretty face, full of surprise, the original sleepiness has long disappeared.

"Second Young Master, you're back. ”

"Well, I'm back. Ye Yi nodded, but asked casually, "Why did you fall asleep sitting on the wooden steps again?"

Hearing this, Xiaolian's face flushed slightly, and then said, "Xiaolian heard that the second young master was back, so she sat at the door and waited, but she didn't expect sleepiness to strike, so she fell asleep." ”

Hearing this, Ye Yi's heart warmed, and he once again made up his mind to work hard to cultivate, although Xiaolian was just a subordinate, he had never treated her as a subordinate. And Xiaolian, like him, has no parents since he was a child, and when he was seven years old, his brother picked up the wild girl who came back from outside to play with him.

In the nine years of growth, he has already regarded him as his sister, if there is anyone in the family besides Ye Yue, he cares, it must be Xiaolian.

"Second Young Master, have you eaten? Xiaolian will go and prepare it for you. Seeing that Ye Yi didn't blame herself, Xiaolian raised her head and asked in a low voice.

"No need, I've already eaten at Yue'er's. Seeing that Xiaolian was as concerned as ever, Ye Yi waved his hand, and then pulled Xiaolian towards the hall.

It's just that Ye Yi just grabbed Xiaolian, Xiaolian's face changed instantly, and her delicate pretty face was full of surprise, "Second Young Master, you have already cultivated to the fourth level of Qi refining?"

Listening to Xiaolian's question, Ye Yi smiled, he really couldn't hide anything from this girl, and then said, "Well, I have been able to cultivate, even an inferior spiritual root can't stop my cultivation." ”

"Congratulations to the second young master. Hearing this, Xiaolian also laughed.

"By the way, in the days when I was away, did you practice with your heart?" Seeing that Xiaolian easily noticed the difference in herself, Ye Yi also asked.

"Returning to the second young master, Xiaolian has been cultivating hard, and now she has a seventh-level cultivation of qi refining. ”

"Oh, that's hello. Hearing this, Ye Yi also secretly praised Xiaolian's extraordinary, at the age of fourteen, she already had a cultivation in the late stage of qi refining, and she was really talented!

"The second young master has won the award, and all this is thanks to the support of the second young master. Xiaolian shook her head.

Hearing this, Ye Yi didn't object, in the past, he couldn't cultivate no matter what, so he simply gave Xiaolian all the resources that the family gave him every month, otherwise, Xiaolian's cultivation would not have improved so quickly.

After that, Ye Yi seemed to think of something, but as soon as his voice changed, he asked, "Has my brother been back?"

"The eldest young master hasn't come back since he left last month, but listening to what the family said, he went to the imperial capital of the dynasty, and he shouldn't come back in a short time. Xiaolian said after sorting out her thoughts.

"Oh, that's right. Although there had been speculations, Ye Yi was still slightly frustrated, when his brother told him, he did say that he was going to go far away, so he would not come back in a short time.

After chatting again, Ye Yi looked at the sky that was not early, and thought that he had to go to cultivation to improve his cultivation, so he simply said to Xiaolian, "It's not early, I'll go back to the room first, and you can rest early." ”

After Ye Yi finished speaking, he turned around and left, watching Ye Yi leave, but Xiaolian sighed slightly, then extinguished the candle and turned into the hut in the backyard.
