Chapter 571: Chapter 571: Picking Faults
“If only your heart were as humble as your mouth,” Ye Qingtian sneered coldly.
After their brief interaction, he had already gotten a rough idea about Xiao Zhan.
Decent strength, arrogant temperant.
Yet, Ye Qingtian chuckled coldly, evidently believing such a person had not yet been hardened by society’s brutal knockbacks. Once that happened, they wouldn’t put on such an arrogant front.
Just then, another man suddenly approached Ye Qingtian.
“Brother Ye, who are these two? Are they your Ye Family’s young talents?”
The speaker was Yun Dong from the Yun Family.
With a pointy face, a hooked nose, and deep-set eyes, he clearly had an unfriendly appearance. He looked to be around fifty years old, about the sa as Ye Qingtian, all peers.
Xiao Zhan knew Yun Dong, and it was impossible for Yun Dong not to recognize Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan’s reputation had already spread throughout the entire Longxia Federation.
Yun Dong’s feigned ignorance was evidently a deliberate ploy to mock Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan had also sensed it; this Yun fellow exuded a level of disdain that surpassed even Ye Qingtian’s. Moreover, his emotions were tinged with a streak of blood-red aura, a sign of a murderous intent.
Did Yun Dong want to kill him?
“Wife, what’s up with this Yun Family now?”
“I don’t know.”
Ye Youlong shook his head. Although the relationship between the Yun Family and the Ye Family was average, there was no enmity to speak of, so he didn’t understand the hostility they harbored against them.
However, one does not question the cause of hostility, only its outco.
Here it cos, Xiao Zhan thought to himself.
Xiao Zhan would see what sort of tricks they were going to pull.
Ye Qingtian was an old fox, astute to the core; Yun Dong hardly made a move before he knew exactly what kind of ss he was cooking up.
Therefore, playing along as the perfect enabler, he said, “These two indeed are young talents. They belong to the Ye Family, but not this one from our Ye family. They are from the Northern City’s Ye Family.”
“Oh, are they Ye Wudi or Ye Wuming?”
Yun Dong drew out his words, then looked towards Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong as if inquiring.
Xiao Zhan shook his head internally, his contempt for Yun Dong’s behavior was palpable.
Do you old folks all enjoy playing such lip-service gas?
If sothing upsets you, why not just have it out in a fight?
What’s with this pretentious posturing, really such an eye-rolling affair.
Xiao Zhan turned to Ye Qingtian, “And who might this be?”
Ye Qingtian replied, “This here, is Yun Dong from the Yun Family, according to seniority, you should also address him as ‘uncle’.”
“Oh, so he’s an elder from the Yun Family. And here I thought he was from so village. Arrived in the big city, and doesn’t even recognize the people from the eight major families.”
Xiao Zhan retorted with mockery, causing Yun Dong’s expression to shift slightly, his eyes turning frosty.
What a sharp tongue indeed.
“So this must be Xiao Zhan, the fad son-in-law of the Ye Family. I’ve long heard your na but never had the opportunity to et you in person, didn’t recognize you just now, my apologies,” Yun Dong said.
“Too kind, too kind.”
Xiao Zhan was anything but polite.
What an improper way to speak to an elder.
Yun Dong’s face indeed grew frostier – soone really was getting too big for their boots.
He snorted coldly in his heart, then signaled soone nearby with a glance.
The man understood perfectly and imdiately stepped forward, “Who is this uncultivated brat coming from nowhere, so disrespectful and rude, get the hell out of here, this is not a place you should co to!”
Xiao Zhan looked at the speaker, with a buzz cut, a pale face, and a frail figure; he was fifty years old yet looked like a sissy man.
The voice was also soft and weak, as if he was undernourished.
He is the City Lord of Yunng Swamp, ng Zehao.
Yunng Swamp, a rather unique place, originally beautiful and enchanting, beca even more otherworldly after rging with the Secret Realm. However, this terrestrial paradise was also filled with dangers.
Whether it was an ordinary person or a Spirit Master, there was a ninety-nine percent chance they would never be able to leave once they entered.
But ng Zehao had special abilities that allowed him to live well within Yunng Swamp.
Seventh Grade expert.
Xiao Zhan had also looked at his profile before, but now, since the other party pretended not to know him, he would also pretend not to recognize him.
“And what kind of sissy are you? What’s it to you where I co from?”
Being called a sissy, ng Zehao’s face imdiately turned angry.
Being called a sissy was what he hated most in his life.
“You ignorant brat, you don’t know how high the sky is nor how deep the earth is! Let tell you, this is Hidden Dragon Hall, only those above Seventh Grade are allowed in, you, a Sixth Grade Spirit Master, get out of here right now!”
“You tell to get out, and I should just leave? Who the hell do you think you are?”
“You dare to curse at ? You really are asking for a beating, I won’t teach you a lesson today unless you really don’t understand your place!”
Saying that, ng Zehao was about to make a move to teach Xiao Zhan a lesson.
But just then, Yun Dong hurriedly stopped him and then said, “Nephew Xiao, this is Hidden Dragon Hall, indeed only those above Seventh Grade are allowed in, I don’t know what brought you here, but I advise you to leave quickly. Otherwise, when more people co, you’ll lose a lot of face.”
“It’s fine, I’m not afraid of losing face. I’m not very capable, but I often find face from others.”
“Are you really that deaf to what people tell you? This is not the place for people like you, scram imdiately, don’t force to lay hands on you!” ng Zehao roared again furiously.
Xiao Zhan couldn’t figure out why all these people had hostility towards him.
He asked Ye Youlong, “Wifey, just how many people has your family offended?”
Ye Youlong shook her head, “I don’t know, but this ng Zehao has close ties with the Yun Family; he’s just being used as a pawn.”
Alright then.
Xiao Zhan helplessly nodded, having such a beautiful wife sure does co with a lot of problems.
“You, sissy, if you have the guts, then make your move, stop just talking big.”
So you want to take action, huh? I’ll indulge you!
ng Zehao saw that Xiao Zhan was neither servile nor overbearing and was sowhat surprised; this was different from what he had imagined.
How could a Sixth Grade have the audacity to challenge a Seventh Grade?
Is it just for saving face?
Or does he really have the ability to show off?
ng Zehao glanced over at Yun Dong discreetly, and Yun Dong nodded at him indicating sothing.
Getting the hint, ng Zehao’s expression darkened, and he said to Xiao Zhan, “Fine, you little brat, looking for a beating, I’ll indulge you, just don’t start crying for mommy later.”
With that, ng Zehao launched a fierce attack on Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan looked at his attack, not retreating in the slightest, but with a look of eagerness on his face, let’s see how strong this Seventh Grade national strength truly is!
Spirit Manipulation Energy started running, ready to strike.
But at that mont, soone suddenly appeared at the entrance.
“Stop!”
His voice was full of vigor, like a striking thunder, resonating with deterrence!
ng Zehao imdiately halted his attack, and at the sa ti, everyone turned to look at the newcor.
