The conflict was temporarily resolved, and Qingyan quickly signaled the guards to take the members of the Yin Group to rest.
Ye Cangtian was too much of a troublemaker. If they stayed any longer, who knew what else might happen, so Qingyan wanted to get the Yin Group members away as soon as possible.
“Wait!”
Seeing the guards step forward, Ye Cangtian raised his hand to stop Qingyan.
What was this kid trying to do now!
Qingyan’s expression was somewhat gloomy. A storm had just calmed down, and now Ye Cangtian wanted to stir up trouble. He really didn’t want him to have any peace!
But there was nothing he could do. Everyone was present, and he had to show the demeanor of a host.
Thinking this, Qingyan looked at the other party and said, “Young friend, if you have any needs, please speak frankly.”
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and waved his hand, saying, “I have no requests, I just feel it would be better to stay in the town below.”
Uh…
Hearing this, almost everyone present was stunned.
Didn't they just have a conflict with Meng Nan over this very issue? If he had made this decision earlier, why would there have been any unpleasantness?
Damn it, he must have done it on purpose!
Meng Nan’s face was extremely gloomy. This was clearly a slap in the face.
Equally gloomy was Qingyan, who sat in the main seat. He thought, why didn’t you just make this decision earlier instead of stirring up trouble?
Thinking this, Qingyan forced a smile and said, “Young friend, why are you doing this? Do you find living here inconvenient?”
Qingyan felt a deep sense of confusion.
After all, living in the upper district was something all factions fought tooth and nail for.
It brought them closer to the five peak powers and made communication easier.
And after he had finally overcome opposition, the other party was unwilling.
It made him feel like he was offering a warm welcome to a cold shoulder, and he also didn’t know what tricks the other party was up to.
“楼主, you’re overthinking it.”
Ye Cangtian smiled and waved his hand, saying, “Life in the towns below has a stronger sense of human touch and is more lively, it’s that simple.”
It’s more convenient for causing trouble, right!
Qingyan muttered inwardly, but outwardly he smiled and said, “I didn’t expect you to be a person who enjoys liveliness, young friend. Since that’s the case, I naturally agree.”
With that, Qingyan gave instructions to the guards, and two guards then led the members of the Yin Group away from the main hall.
As soon as Ye Cangtian left, Meng Nan of Xuefeng stepped forward.
He looked at Qingyan’s gradually darkening expression and quickly said, “楼主, this Ye Cangtian is ungrateful and doesn’t take the Yan Yu Tower seriously at all. How could you let him go so easily?”
Hmph!
Qingyan snorted lightly, looked at Meng Nan, and said faintly, “Meng Nan, guests must behave as guests should. Don’t meddle in other people’s affairs, and don’t try to sow discord. Otherwise, it will do no good for your Xuefeng!”
This…
With those words, cold sweat broke out on Meng Nan’s forehead. He could already feel the suffocating aura emanating from the other party.
There was no need to say that the other party was truly angered. If this continued, he would surely not fare well.
Thinking this, he quickly cupped his hands and said, “It was the junior who spoke too much. I hope senior will forgive me.”
With that, Meng Nan quickly cupped his hands and took his leave. The other party was clearly angered, so it was better for him to stay away, lest he become a scapegoat.
…
Lower Town.
The guards led all the members of the Yin Group to an inn in the center of the town.
After all, the members of the Yin Group were qualified to stay in the upper district and held very high status, so these guards did not dare to neglect them and booked the entire inn.
This gesture immediately baffled the members of the Yin Group.
After all, the people from the Yin Group who came were the Death God Squad led by Ye Cangtian, a total of six people.
And a luxurious suite would have been more than enough to accommodate them.
But the guards of the Yan Yu Tower had booked an entire inn, which was truly extravagant and a waste of public resources.
Ye Cangtian had also spoken to the guards about this, saying it was completely unnecessary.
However, the guards’ reply made him accept it all.
First, there were many inns in the lower district, and each faction stayed in its own inn to avoid friction with each other and to prevent disturbances.
Second, some factions appeared to have very few people, but in reality, they had more people hidden away. Thus, including these people, the rooms were sufficient.
Finally, if factions had mutual interactions, booking an entire inn also prevented their conversations from being overheard…
After a short while, Ye Cangtian sent off the guards, packed his luggage simply, and then led the Death God Squad out of the inn.
After enduring hardship for so long, it was time for them to relax. Since Yao Bao’er, the glutton, had already started her actions, Ye Cangtian decided to go and meet her.
A bustling street in the town.
Yao Bao’er, carrying a large bag of snacks, walked and ate, attracting considerable attention for two reasons.
First, these snacks were local delicacies. While saying they were fragrant for ten li might be an exaggeration, the alluring aroma that wafted by as one passed was definitely real.
Second, although Yao Bao’er was a little plump, her appearance was undoubtedly not bad, and this slight plumpness even made her look very cute.
And on such a bustling street, many people had not seen a beauty so disregard her image. Most importantly, Yao Bao’er’s clothing bore the symbol of the Yin Group.
Therefore, her passing by attracted a lot of attention, and some people even pointed and whispered.
However, Yao Bao’er didn’t care at all. In her opinion, since all the delicious food was already in her stomach, let anyone say whatever they wanted.
Just then, in a restaurant.
A young man, holding a wine pot, leaned by the window, watching everything on the street.
The next moment, he noticed Yao Bao’er, who was causing a stir, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“This beauty is very interesting. Unlike the women from other factions, she is not so pretentious.”
The man made a simple evaluation, then looked at the black-clothed guard beside him and said with a smile, “Miao Zhou, invite her up so we can get acquainted!”
Yes!
The guard responded to the command and then left the room.
Soon, the guard arrived on the street and blocked Yao Bao’er’s path.
Seeing this, Taishan, who had been following Yao Bao’er all along, flashed forward and stood in front of Yao Bao’er, becoming vigilant.
“Who are you?” Taishan asked gloomily.
Hearing this, the guard quickly cupped his hands in a bow and said, “I am Miao Zhou from Chi Xia Island. My young master wishes to meet this lady.”
Chi Xia Island?
Taishan’s eyes darted around. He had been in the ruins for quite some time, but he had no impression of Chi Xia Island at all.
Thinking this, he looked at Yao Bao’er and cast a questioning glance.
Sensing Taishan’s gaze, Yao Bao’er waved her hand impatiently and said, “I won’t meet him. It’s delaying my eating…”
In Yao Bao’er’s opinion, nothing was more important than eating at the moment.
Besides, Ye Cangtian had instructed her not to cause trouble. If she met the other party and caused any trouble, she might be disciplined by Ye Cangtian later.
This was completely unnecessary!
How straightforward.
Taishan smiled bitterly in his heart, then put on a stern face and said to the other party, “Did you hear? We have no intention of getting acquainted, so you should leave.”
With that, Taishan was about to lead Yao Bao’er away.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Miao Zhou flashed forward and blocked their path again.
At this moment, Miao Zhou’s expression had turned grim. He said in a deep voice, “My two friends, I think it would be better for you to meet. Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to report back!”
Hearing this, Taishan’s expression immediately turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, “What if we refuse to meet?”
“Then I can only forcibly invite you,” Miao Zhou said coldly.
“Very good, I would like to see if you have the ability to invite us!”
Taishan’s expression changed, and a large shield had already appeared in his hand, blocking in front of him.
Seeing this, Miao Zhou snorted coldly and directly drew his long spear.
The strong smell of gunpowder that filled the air immediately attracted the attention of many people.
On a small bridge at the edge of the crowd, Ye Cangtian and Qiangwei stopped. Seeing Yao Bao’er and Taishan being stopped,
Qiangwei turned to Ye Cangtian and said coldly, “They seem to be in trouble. Shall we go over?”
“No rush!”
Ye Cangtian waved his hand and said with a smile, “The opponent is not strong. It’s a good opportunity for Taishan to practice, and also to see how much Taishan has grown.”
Hearing this, Qiangwei nodded and became quiet.
The group had just consumed Dao Comprehension Pills and really needed some combat to stabilize their cultivation.
