Chapter 17 Dongyi Visitors

"Hahaha."

Murong Yao is usually very serious, but when he saw Ye Lanxi today and thought of some interesting things, he couldn't help but laugh again and again.

"My dear Lord Ye, there is no need to call yourself a commoner. I will immediately appoint you as the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards..."

"Your Majesty!" Ye Lanxi stood up quickly: "No!"

Murong Yao asked: "Why not?"

"I grew up in the dark room of the Ye family. I have never read a single day in the past 18 years. I can't read, I don't understand human relationships, and I am a mess when it comes to dealing with people. I can be the head of the Ye family, but I definitely can't be a general!"

Ye Lanxi was so frank that Murong Yao felt a little ashamed.

As the most favored emperor, Murong Yao had already thoroughly investigated Ye Lanxi's background before summoning him.

What happened in the Ye family is just a joke.

On his way to conquer Dongyi, Ye Qing met Ji Mingzhu who was being chased by bandits and fell off a cliff.

Ji Mingzhu is bright and beautiful, breathtakingly beautiful.

Ye Qing fell in love with her at first sight. He first took her by his side and made her his military wife, and then brought her back to the Ye Mansion and doted on her in every way.

At that time, Ye Qing, in addition to his principal wife Luo Qi and his eldest son Ye Mosun, also had two concubines, who gave birth to two sons for him, one named Ye Xingfeng and the other named Ye Zhiyi.

Ye Qing’s ancestors were all burly butchers.

It was not until his generation that he succeeded in building his foundation. He practiced hard and reached the Nascent Soul stage. He got a position as the Left General in the army and gradually gained reputation.

But the noble families in the capital city looked down on the Ye family from the bottom of their hearts because of their rude words and deeds and their lack of etiquette.

Among the three sons born to Ye Qing, the eldest son, Ye Mosun, was short, dark and stout with an ugly appearance; the second son was as thin as a bamboo pole, with yellow skin and a gaunt face; the third son had a face as black as charcoal, an upturned nose and protruding ears, and was extremely ugly.

When the fair and beautiful little Lan Xi was born, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that it was not Ye Qing's child.

During that time, Ye Qing and even the entire Ye family were the laughing stock of the entire capital.

But later, Lan Xi disappeared...

When Princess Le Ya came back from the Ye family and told Murong Yao that Ye Mosun, a master in the Spiritualization Stage, was killed by Ye Lanxi in one move, Murong Yao immediately became interested.

The Ye family’s melons are still so delicious after so many years.

What Murong Yao did not expect was that Ye Lanxi, who had been imprisoned for more than ten years, did not show any sign of dejection, ferocity or cruelty.

His black hair was as white as satin, his eyebrows and eyes were as pretty as a painting, and his facial features were extremely handsome.

Even a supreme ruler like him couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when he saw Ye Lanxi.

No wonder Princess Le Ya praised him highly after she came back...

"Cough cough~"

Murong Yao coughed twice and regained his composure.

"Well, Lord Ye, if you don't want to be the commander-in-chief, then I will give you a piece of dragon blood seven-colored stone, a jade coral, a hundred pieces of brocade, and a hundred taels of gold..."

A series of rewards.

Soon, Ye Lanxi's front was filled with imperial gifts.

That piece of dragon blood colorful stone was bigger and more gorgeous than the one Princess Le Ya presented to him yesterday.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"My dear Lord Ye, you have suffered a lot over the years, but I still hope that you can think of the brotherhood and show mercy to your three brothers."

"..."

Ye Lanxi lowered his head and did not respond.

Don't persuade others to be kind to others without suffering.

How come the emperor doesn’t even understand such a simple truth?
Concubine Zhen smiled and poured Murong Yao a glass of wine, then changed the subject.

"Your Majesty, didn't you say that Princess Le Ya specially prepared a stunning dance for Master Lan Xi? Should we let Princess Le Ya come up?"

"Yes, yes, yes. The princess has been looking forward to seeing Master Lanxi."

Murong Yao laughed and used the stairs to change the subject.

Accompanied by the sound of drums, Murong Leya, wearing a light and flowing colorful dress, walked slowly into the venue, smiled at Ye Lanxi, spread her long sleeves, and danced gracefully.

Ye Lanxi knew nothing about singing, dancing or playing any musical instrument.

He just wanted to receive the reward quickly and go back to offer incense to Fairy Si Yan.

Murong Leya used her right foot as the axis, and her graceful figure turned faster and faster.

Suddenly, she stepped on tiptoe and rose into the air. With a wave of her hand, dozens of colorful ribbons poured out, and the whole stage seemed like a neon ocean.

Her clothes fluttered in the wind, like a flying dragon or a startled swan.

Just as everyone was watching with fascination, a sharp arrow suddenly shot out from outside.

The sudden change frightened all the officials and musicians present so much that they ran away in panic, some hid under the table, and some even wet their pants in fear.

Princess Le Ya cried out in surprise, seeing the sharp tip of the arrow getting closer and closer to her...

At this critical moment.

Ye Lanxi flew over. He put his left hand around Princess Le Ya's waist and gently pulled her into his arms. With his right hand, he grabbed the sharp arrow that was aimed at her vital point and threw it back.

call out!
The sharp arrow made a sound of breaking through the air and shot towards the archer hiding in the dark.

boom!
Someone used a weapon to knock the sharp arrow to the ground.

Everyone finally reacted and exclamations broke out one after another at the scene.

"There are assassins!"

"Escort me, protect me quickly!"

The imperial guards came running over with swords clattering in their hands, surrounding the Jinhua Terrace tightly.

Ye Lanxi put Princess Le Ya aside and turned to look in the direction where the sharp arrow came from.

"get out!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Is this the Taixu Realm expert that your Great Xin Nation has praised to the skies?"

Along with the arrogant voices, a man and a woman walked out from the darkness.

The woman was in her prime, wearing a chest-length dress. A bright red tulle enveloped her graceful figure, revealing a large area of ​​snow-white skin. The bell on her wrist made clear and pleasant sounds as she walked.

The man had deep eyebrows, a broad nose, a tall build, and long, thick black hair braided into countless small braids with colorful stones hanging on them. In his hand he held a half-moon scimitar that flashed a cold light.

The two men's foreign attire and accents made Murong Yao and others look horrified at the same time.

"Eastern Yi people?"

"Why did the Dongyi people come to our palace without permission?"

"Someone, someone, drive them out!"

"Yes!"

Several royal guards rushed towards the man and woman with swords in hand.

But soon, they were knocked back again.

There were two Royal Guards who were slightly weaker. Not only did their swords fly away, but their ears also started bleeding.

Everyone present gasped.

"God transformation stage?"

"Could they be the two masters of the Spiritualization Stage from the Dongyi Nation?"

"Breaking into the palace without permission, are you bullying us because we have no one left in Daxin?"

"I'm so angry! Who of you will teach these two arrogant foreigners a lesson?"

"Go ahead!"

"Why would a civilian like me go? If anyone should go, it should be a military officer like General Ge."

They blamed each other and no one dared to step forward.

As an emperor, Murong Yao felt a little embarrassed.

He straightened his back and showed his imperial aura: "You two are masters of the Spiritual Transformation Stage from the Dongyi Kingdom, Danzeng and Meiduo?"

"Exactly!"

Danzeng and Meiduo bowed lightly towards Murong Yao as a perfunctory gesture.

The tone is very arrogant.

"My brother and I followed the order of the King of Dongyi to travel around Lingyang Continent. Recently, we happened to come to your Daxin Kingdom. I heard that you have a master of the Taixu Realm here. Can you invite him to compete with my brother and me?"

As the two of them spoke, they looked at Ye Lanxi provocatively.

Murong Yao, Princess Le Ya and others also looked at Ye Lanxi with expectant eyes.

The Dongyi Kingdom was originally a tiny country, poor and backward, and was not something to be feared.

But ever since the emergence of two masters of the Spiritualization Stage, Danzeng and Meiduo, in the Dongyi Kingdom, they began to flaunt their power and bully others, often causing trouble on the border. The brother and sister even frequently went to the border of Daxin to suppress other practitioners...

Today is even more excessive.

He broke into the Daxin Palace and shot an arrow at Princess Le Ya.

Tolerable or unbearable.

It is reasonable and moral for Ye Lanxi to stand up and teach these two ignorant Dongyi people a lesson.

but……

Ye Lanxi raised her hand to cover her lips: "It's getting late, Your Majesty, I should leave now."

Murong Yao choked: "Resign? This, this is still too early."

"It's getting late. It's almost midnight."

It's time to go back and burn incense to Fairy Si Yan.
