Serving as a Jinyiwei, starting from plundering the swordsmanship talent

Chapter 218 Awe-inspiring Power! The Might of a Grandmaster
Because of Ye Liuyun's boldness, he only targeted Granny Liu and Grandpa Qu.

So Meiji didn't notice anything at all.

Seeing this sudden change, Meiji's expression immediately turned worried. She wanted to go over and help, but Granny Liu stopped her.

"Stop, don't come over here!"

He gathered his inner strength to support himself while speaking to Meiji.

"Run! He's a Grandmaster! Mengzhu, run!"

This aura and intimidating power unique to a Grandmaster—there's no mistake, he's definitely a Grandmaster.

Back when Yan Fuhai forcibly took Liu Qingqing, they resisted, and the means Yan Fuhai used to suppress them was precisely this kind of intimidation.

If it weren't for Liu Qingqing pleading for them and saying she was willing to go back to the palace with them, perhaps they would have died long ago.

pity.

They survived.

Liu Qingqing, who followed Yan Fuhai back to the palace, could never return.

"what!"

Meiji looked at Ye Liuyun in disbelief. Grandmaster? How could that be!

"Mengzhu, run! As long as you live, we still have a chance!"

Meiji has good talent.

Granny Liu genuinely believed that if the other party focused on cultivation, he would have no problem reaching her current level, if not becoming a Grandmaster.

It would be such a pity to die here.

If I die, so be it, but I absolutely cannot let Meiji die here too, otherwise there will truly be no hope left.

"this!"

The confident Meiji, who had just been all smiles, was now filled with panic.

Looking at Ye Liuyun, who still had a smile on his face.

Meiji couldn't help but clench her fist; she never expected this.

Ye Liuyun is only so young, yet he has already reached the Grandmaster level. Is this really a talent that ordinary people can possess?

"No, I'm not leaving!"

After gritting her teeth and remaining silent for a moment, Meiji still stood firmly in place.

"Anyway, going to the palace to seek revenge against Yan Fuhai is also a death. Dying here or dying in the palace doesn't make much difference."

As she said this, Meiji's eyes became filled with a sense of resignation.

From the moment she arrived in Daqian, Meiji was prepared to die.

Now that Granny Liu and the others can travel together, the journey to the underworld won't be so lonely.

"Mengzhu!"

Granny Liu wanted to say something more, but seeing Meiji's resolute expression, she hesitated.

Granny Liu, who knew Meiji's temperament well, knew very well that at this time, no matter what she said, it would be useless and she couldn't change Meiji's mind at all.

no solution anymore.

Granny Liu stared intently at Ye Liuyun.

He was already plotting how to stall Ye Liuyun so that he could find an opportunity to send Meiji away.

"Is that a look in your eyes? Are you ready to fight me to the death?"

Noticing Granny Liu's gaze, Ye Liuyun showed no sign of annoyance.

Instead, he grinned.

He spread his hands, speaking in a very casual manner.

"Instead of running away, you choose to fight to the death with a grandmaster like me?"

",,,"

Granny Liu wasn't stupid; how could she not hear the sarcasm in Ye Liuyun's words?

only.

At her advanced age, Granny Liu has seen all sorts of storms and waves, so naturally she wouldn't show any anger because of a few teasing words.

His gaze was fixed on Ye Liuyun without flinching.

"Even if it's a Grandmaster, this old woman wouldn't be out of the question,"

As she spoke, Granny Liu endured the pressure of Ye Liuyun's Grandmaster aura while rushing towards Ye Liuyun's location.

Unfortunately, before she could finish speaking, Granny Liu's figure flew back again.

Followed closely.

It's Meiji and Grandpa Qu.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Each person should take a turn; we can't show favoritism.

,,,

After the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea.

Ye Liuyun sat in his chair, holding a wine glass in one hand, sipping his wine with a contented expression.

Meanwhile, Meiji, Granny Liu, and Grandpa Qu, all with bruised and swollen faces, stood on the other side of the room, watching Ye Liuyun warily.

Mei Ji's situation is relatively good; Ye Liuyun did not deliberately slap Mei Ji in the face.

But Grandma Liu and Grandpa Qu are different; they're already quite old.

Ye Liuyun slapped him, and several more of his already sparse teeth flew out.

"hiss!"

My speech even sounds a bit slurred.

"Grandpa Qu! Grandma Liu!"

Seeing the two in such a miserable state, Meiji felt a surge of anger. These two could now be considered her family.

See this scene.

How could Meiji not be furious?

"If you've got the guts, then kill me. As a Grandmaster, is it really meaningful for you to humiliate us like this?"

You have the demeanor of a grandmaster.

They're quite bold. Knowing that Ye Liuyun is a Grandmaster, they not only show no fear, but also dare to shout so loudly.

"Don't make it sound so pitiful!"

A glass of wine.

Ye Liuyun said lazily.

"It's only because I'm a Grandmaster that I'm at their mercy. If I weren't a Grandmaster, wouldn't I be the one being controlled by others right now?"

That's why I said it.

No matter what, one's own strength is the most important thing.

If I didn't have that ability, I'd probably be the one standing obediently to the side right now!
Even if he encountered an enemy he couldn't defeat, Ye Liuyun was confident he could escape.

"would not!"

Hearing Ye Liuyun say this.

Meiji immediately retorted.

"Do you think we're bad people? At most, we'll ask you to help us get into the palace and find Yan Fuhai's location, and then we'll let you go. Why would we possibly kill you!"

Mei Ji's original intention was to use her beauty to bewitch Ye Liuyun and get him to help her enter the palace.

Find the palace where Yan Fuhai is located.

As for what she meant by using Ye Liuyun's strength to deal with Yan Fuhai, Meiji really hadn't expected that.

His own hatred.

There's no need to drag innocent people into this.

"So, you're quite the philanthropist then!"

Hearing Ye Liuyun's teasing tone.

Meiji said irritably.

"You don't need to mock me like that. Now that you've caught me, you can do whatever you want with me. Dying at Yan Fuhai's hands or dying at your hands won't make much difference!"

After saying that, Meiji closed her eyes, looking as if she was waiting for death to come.

but.

Even from those trembling eyelashes, one could tell that Meiji's heart was far from calm.

Come to think of it, how many people in this world can remain calm and composed when facing death? They would still be afraid.

It's just a pity.

He was about to die without even seeing Yan Fuhai's face.

I feel like I wouldn't have the face to face Sister Liu even if I went to the underworld!

"Is Liu Qingqing really that important to you that you'd risk your life to avenge her?"

Ye Liuyun did not rush to make a move.

Instead, he asked out of curiosity.

"What do you know!"

Other things didn't matter, but when it came to matters concerning Liu Qingqing, Meiji couldn't help herself.

"Sister Liu is the kindest and gentlest person in the world. She is like a fairy. Do you know how many people Sister Liu has saved from starvation?"

"My life belongs to Sister Liu. What does it matter if I die, as long as I can avenge her?"

The intelligence reports from the Embroidered Uniform Guard do indeed contain a description of this Liu Qingqing.

It's hard to imagine that such an extraordinary woman could emerge in such an era.

Liu Qingqing's family was not wealthy, and the money she used to help the people was earned through Qingshui Pavilion.

No wonder.

At that time, Yan Fuhai would stop at nothing to get Liu Qingqing.

I doubt many monarchs could resist such a beauty.

"It would be our honor to die for you, Miss!"

Grandma Liu, who was standing to the side, also spoke in a low voice. Although Grandpa Qu did not speak, his eyes, filled with a determination to die for his country, said it all.

They had already run it once back then.

So this time, I won't run away no matter what.

"interesting!"

He glanced at Granny Liu and the others, then looked at Meiji, who still had her eyes closed, as if waiting to die.

Ye Liuyun suddenly laughed.

"Although your cultivation is a bit lacking, it might actually be able to produce some surprising results when dealing with Yan Fuhai!"

No matter what.

If used properly, a late-stage Grandmaster and an early-stage Grandmaster might actually produce some amazing effects.

"???"

As soon as these words came out.

Both Meiji and Granny Liu were visibly taken aback.

"Deal with Yan Fuhai?"

correct!

Suddenly it dawned on him that Ye Liuyun had been addressing Yan Fuhai by his given name the entire time, showing absolutely no respect whatsoever.

I hadn't paid much attention to this before, but now that I think about it, it's actually quite problematic.

"You?" Mei Ji opened her eyes at this moment, looking at Ye Liuyun with a look of surprise and uncertainty.

"You don't think that you're the only ones in the entire Great Qian Dynasty who want to get rid of Yan Fuhai, do you?"

There wasn't much hatred between him and Yan Fuhai.

It's simply because it's blocking the way!
Whether others are interested in the emperor's position is unknown, but Ye Liuyun is genuinely not interested.

Either become a tyrant.

If you really want to be a good emperor, the sheer volume of memorials you have to review every day can be overwhelming. No matter how many beauties you have in your harem, if you don't have time to enjoy them, what good are they?
If Yan Shuzhu secures his throne...

Without a doubt, this was the thing that maximized Ye Liuyun's interests.

And now.

Because of Yan Fuhai's existence, Yan Shuzhu's position is unstable, and his own interests will naturally be affected to some extent.

not to mention.

Ye Liuyun had already witnessed Yan Fuhai's suspicious and domineering personality.

It was only because of the backlash from his luck that Ye Liuyun believed Yan Fuhai would have attacked him long ago.

If that's the case, why not strike first? Ye Liuyun has never been one to play defensively; rather than worrying about how to defend himself against Yan Fuhai's attack, he'd rather take the initiative.

It would be better to kill Yan Fuhai first.

In that case, I won't have to worry about anything anymore, right?
perfect!

Do you also have a grudge against Yan Fuhai?

Hearing Ye Liuyun say this.

Meiji simply believed that Ye Liuyun had some deep-seated hatred with Yan Fuhai, which was why he wanted to get rid of Yan Fuhai.

Do you have a grudge against them?
It doesn't really count as that; it's just blocking the way.

However, Ye Liuyun didn't intend to explain much. He simply nodded and casually said, "If you really want to understand, that's fine too!"

"I see!"

I don't know if she's genuinely naive.

Or, in Meiji's opinion,

It's not surprising that someone as disgusting as Yan Fuhai has made many enemies, so Meiji believed him immediately.

"Damn Yan Fuhai, a person like him shouldn't be alive!"

Should have thought of it earlier.

Yan Fuhai was never a good person to begin with, so how could they be the only ones in the world who wanted to get rid of him?

"Great!"

It seems so.

Now not only can I avoid dying, but I can also have a powerful ally in my revenge.

",,,"

Seeing Mei Ji's expression, as if she were treating him like one of her own, Ye Liuyun didn't know what to say.

And then...

Suddenly, the way the enchantress looked at him became somewhat pitiful.

It seems that they felt that they must also have some tragic fate.

Do all women like to overthink things?

If Meiji continues to let her imagination run wild, she might become the most miserable person in the world.

"Alright, alright! Let's not talk about the past. Now tell me, what is your most fundamental plan?"

Ye Liuyun still really wanted to hear it with his own ears.

What are these people planning to do, and how do they intend to take revenge on Yan Fuhai?

"this,,"

Perhaps they felt that this kind of thing was still relatively private.

Meiji hesitated, unsure whether she should speak up.

She glanced sideways at Grandma Liu and Grandpa Qu standing to the side.

In comparison, the older women clearly have a clearer perspective on issues.

"If Young Master Ye really wanted to take action, he would have already done so. There's no need for him to deceive us!"

That's right.

Ye Liuyun is a Grandmaster. Even if they all joined forces, they couldn't defeat a Grandmaster.

If Ye Liuyun was just fooling them, he could have just attacked them directly; they had no power to resist at all.

Think of this.

Meiji nodded slightly and revealed her plan.
"Actually, our initial goal was to use you to lead us into the palace and find the order where Yan Fuhai is located."

"Why me?"

Ye Liuyun found it strange. Could it be that he looked like some kind of unlucky guy?
"Naturally, it's because of your great reputation. You're also the Southern Garrison Commander, which gives you free access to the imperial palace. And I've heard that you seem to have a fondness for beautiful women!"

When it comes to the end.

Meiji herself felt very frustrated.

Why.

Is it because I'm not pretty? Why has Ye Liuyun remained so calm throughout, even managing to turn the tables on me?

As a result, Meiji is now somewhat insecure about her own appearance.

",,,"

Do you have a fondness for beautiful women?

Ye Liuyun frowned. Damn it, who on earth spread this message and tried to smear him?

"Alright, let's talk about the plans for the future. What will you do if I'm really swayed?"

"Didn't I tell you? I asked you to lead us to Yan Fuhai's palace!"

Meiji's words were perfectly reasonable.

"After finding the palace, should we just storm in?"

"Yup!"

Ye Liuyun didn't speak, but just silently looked at Meiji for a while, while Meiji looked at Ye Liuyun with a puzzled expression.

It seemed they didn't understand what the other person was wondering about.

Isn't what you're saying easy to understand?
",,,"

This plan is really... I don't know how to evaluate it.

Is this considered a plan?

"You should all know that Yan Fuhai is a terrestrial immortal, right?"

We just charged in.

Were you chopping melons and vegetables back then?

Even if Yan Fuhai is still suffering from the backlash of his luck, he should still have no problem wiping out Meiji and the others.

"I understand what Young Master Ye means!"

Granny Liu had already understood the meaning behind Ye Liuyun's words.

He shook his head slightly and said calmly.

"His tone was one of constant cowardice; to die on the road to avenging Miss would be a stroke of luck."

Doesn't Granny Liu know the difference between this plan and courting death?

Of course I know.

But there's nothing you can do. They're terrestrial immortals. No matter how much you scheme, it's all in vain against their absolute power.

Since we're going to die anyway, we might as well be straightforward.

",,,"

I can see it.

These people weren't unaware of the problems with the plan; they were just deliberately courting death.

Just what kind of extraordinary woman is Liu Qingqing?

Only then can one be remembered after one's death.

So many people are willing to die to avenge her.

Pity.

Ye Liuyun felt a pang of regret for no reason. She was born too late. If it were ten years ago, he would really like to meet this extraordinary woman.

"What, do you have some great plan?"

"Compared to your plan, any other plan would be considered a good plan."

",,,"

Meiji felt that she had been slighted.

Because this plan was Meiji's idea.

"Come on, tell me your plan if you dare. I don't believe it can be much better than mine!"

His face was full of resentment.

Meiji really didn't believe that Ye Liuyun could come up with any good plan.

That's a terrestrial deity! What kind of plan could possibly work against a terrestrial deity?
Since death is inevitable, there's no need to differentiate between dying sooner or later.

"You're not trying to trick me out of my plan, are you?"

Ye Liuyun looked at Meiji with a face full of suspicion.

"you!"

Hearing this, Meiji looked at Ye Liuyun with even more anger.

If she weren't outmatched in strength, Meiji would probably have already taken action.

"Alright! My plan is pretty ordinary too, maybe a bit more substantial than yours!"

Subsequently.

Ye Liuyun gave a brief explanation.

Dealing with Yan Fuhai is no easy task, even though I have already reached the early stage of Grandmaster.

But Ye Liuyun wasn't confident enough.

To be able to confront Yan Fuhai head-on with just this level of skill is not confidence, it's practically naive.

and so.

It is necessary to deal with the people around Yan Fuhai temporarily, so that Yan Fuhai has no one to rely on.

The brothers Yunhu and Guanbao are now gradually gaining fame.

It's about time to let the two brothers come into Yan Fuhai's sight.

Ye Liuyun was still thinking about what to do, but the appearance of these people gave him a good idea.

,,,

"this!"

Although Ye Liuyun only gave a rough outline of the plan.

But Meiji had to admit that compared to such a plan, her own idea was like children playing house!

"Will it really work? Doesn't the Great Qian still have Grandmaster Fu Zhengqing and General Yue Xiu, who once killed a mid-stage Grandmaster on the battlefield? With these two around, perhaps Yan Fuhai won't even need to lift a finger!"

You're quite the talker.

These two are indeed the strongest fighting force in the open in the Great Qian Dynasty.

Unfortunately, neither of them would help Yan Fuhai.

"If you had done any investigation beforehand, you would have known that General Yue Xiu's youngest son was killed by Yan Fuhai. As for Fu Zhengqing, why do you think he's still only at the early stage of Grandmaster after all these years?"

",,,"

Two sentences.

This caused Meiji and the others to fall silent once again.

Compared to Ye Liuyun, their plans are utterly inadequate.

They didn't do any investigation; they just acted on impulse and came to seek revenge.

I never even considered the possibility of success.

But Ye Liuyun's plan truly showed them how to achieve revenge.

"How insidious!"

Meiji couldn't help but sigh.

Ye Liuyun didn't speak. Was "insidious" a compliment?

That's well said. Don't say it again next time!

at this time.

Meiji suddenly came closer.

"Count us in! Let us join this plan!"

At first, I didn't think there was any possibility of success, so I had to risk my life.

But if there really were a plan to kill Yan Fuhai right in front of her, could Meiji refuse?

Even so, the chance doesn't seem very high.

But it's better than having no chance at all!
Without Ye Liuyun even having to say a word, Meiji took the initiative to come closer.

After exchanging a glance, Granny Liu and Grandpa Qu stepped forward and addressed Ye Liuyun in a firm tone.

"Young Master Ye didn't kill us; instead, he told us his plan. I suppose he intends to use our strength!"

Grandma Liu isn't just bragging.

With his late-stage Grandmaster level strength, he would be considered a formidable force anywhere.

Moreover, from that plan just now, Granny Liu could see that Ye Liuyun was not only exceptionally talented, but also a shrewd strategist.

It's understandable that they would want to utilize their power.

"If I can avenge Miss, then my life will belong to Young Master Ye!"

"I feel the same way!"

Grandpa Qu chimed in with a comment.

"And I!"

Seeing this, Meiji quickly added a comment.

They were afraid of being excluded.

"I don't need your lives, but I do have a use for your strength!"

talking.

Ye Liuyun's gaze then naturally turned towards Grandpa Qu's direction.

At the early stage of becoming a Grandmaster, it's just right.

"???"

Grandpa Qu felt a little uneasy looking at Ye Liuyun's silent, smiling expression.
