Serving as a Jinyiwei, starting from plundering the swordsmanship talent

Chapter 250 Arrival at the Xie Clan Chamber of Commerce! Truly Immense Power
"What a terrible temper!"

This is almost catching up with Shi Sheng's level.

Weren't we having a good chat? Why did you suddenly get angry? Si Nan was a little confused. Could it be that you're getting old and thin-skinned, and can't stand hearing things like going to a brothel?
Forget it.

If they don't want to go, then they don't want to go! Although Si Nan wasn't worried at all that the other party would actually kill him because of Ye Liuyun.

But it's not foolish enough to go up and provoke others.

After clicking his tongue twice, he regained his footing, but his gaze kept drifting towards the old man.

,,,

"As expected, there are many capable people around you, sir!"

inside the room.

Ye Liuyun was still sitting in his seat, but Xie Ling'er had already leaned against him.

Xie Ling'er had obviously heard what happened outside and couldn't help but laugh and tease her.

Although it was a bit quirky.

However, it cannot be denied that Si Nan is indeed very perceptive and incredibly efficient in his work.

The old man was just a member of the Xie Clan Chamber of Commerce, assigned as a guard for Xie Ling'er. He wasn't a trusted confidant, and they were just there to maintain appearances.

"Tell me your purpose!"

Ye Liuyun had no intention of chatting with Xie Ling'er and simply said something.

He then glanced at Xie Ling'er beside him.

Beautiful women are desirable, but Ye Liuyun isn't the type to think with his lower body. Besides, everyone around Ye Liuyun is a stunning beauty, so he's long been immune to them.

"Does my lord still remember what I told you before about the auction held within the Xie Clan Chamber of Commerce?"

Xie Ling'er is quite perceptive.

Seeing that Ye Liuyun didn't want to waste time with words, he directly stated his purpose.

"auctions?"

Ye Liuyun naturally remembered.

Xie Ling'er once said that in addition to the stores in each region, the Xie Clan Chamber of Commerce also holds an auction once a month.

The Xie Clan Chamber of Commerce also holds its own auctions.

However, those who can participate in such auctions are either members of the Xie family or people who are on good terms with the Xie family; outsiders are not qualified to participate at all.

same.

Because it is an internal auction, the items auctioned are definitely not comparable to those auctioned in ordinary brothels.

"Isn't there still some time?"

Ye Liuyun remembered that, according to Xie Ling'er's previous statement, such auctions might only happen once or twice a year.

Judging by the timeline, it should be several more months before it starts.

Hearing Ye Liuyun's curiosity.

Xie Ling'er explained with a smile.

"I heard that the head of the family has somehow acquired a very fine treasure, so he is preparing to hold this auction ahead of schedule. That is why I have come to see you, sir!"

A nice treasure?
This made Ye Liuyun raise an eyebrow slightly.

For no apparent reason, I realized that I had secretly thought about wanting to obtain a decent magical artifact before.

Could it be that this is the manifestation of wish fulfillment, and that this is how the treasure is "legitimately" delivered into my hands?
but.

This is just speculation; we'll only know the truth once we see it for ourselves.

"What's the specific time?"

Having made up his mind, Ye Liuyun asked the question directly.

Upon hearing this, Xie Ling'er's face lit up with joy, and she quickly replied.

"We're leaving in three days!"

Since Ye Liuyun said so, it's clear that he agreed.

If I were to bring a young grandmaster like Ye Liuyun back to the main family, my status in the main family would surely rise even higher. At that time, who would dare to look down on me?
Three days?
Ye Liuyun didn't pay attention to Xie Ling'er's emotional changes; instead, he lowered his head and began to think.

Fu Zhengqing's plan is to hold the sacrificial ceremony to Heaven a month from now.

Going to the auction and coming back shouldn't take more than a month. Perfect. If I really get a decent magical artifact, it might have unexpected effects when I'm ready to use it.

"it is good!"

With this in mind, Ye Liuyun nodded in agreement.

After receiving Ye Liuyun's accurate answer, Xie Ling'er's smile widened even more.

"If there's anything you fancy, sir, just let me know. After all, you're from the Xie family, so I should be able to afford some simple trinkets!"

Xie Ling'er didn't make her statement too definitive.

After all, ordinary things don't really matter, but precious things are a different story. He hasn't even been incorporated into the main family yet; he can only be considered a collateral branch.

"No need!"

A big wave of his hand.

Ye Liuyun smiled indifferently.

"What I want will eventually come into my hands!"

Ye Liuyun doesn't need anyone's help at all. He doesn't even care about trinkets. As for truly precious things, Ye Liuyun can get them himself.

"As expected of an adult!"

Seeing Ye Liuyun like this.

Xie Ling'er seemed to like it even more, and moved closer to Ye Liuyun again.

The subtle fragrance naturally enveloped Ye Liuyun.

Now that everything has been said, aren't you going back?

Looking at Xie Ling'er like this, Ye Liuyun asked a question with great interest.

"Is Your Excellency willing to let this humble woman leave like this?"

Xie Ling'er didn't care; instead, she looked at Ye Liuyun with affection in her eyes.

Xie Ling'er had already made plans before she came.

Since I'm going to get married eventually anyway, it's better to marry someone I don't even know for the sake of the family's interests.

It's better to choose one you like that also has a better future.

Meeting Xie Ling'er's clearly indicated gaze, Ye Liuyun smiled.

,,,

at the same time.

Si Nan, who was standing outside the door, felt a little bored after standing there for a while, so he went up to the old man next to him and raised his eyebrows and said.

"Your young lady is probably going back to the manor with my master tonight. How about it, if you're not busy, I'd like to take you to the brothel for a stroll?"

If Si Nan has the attributes of a "cow" every year, he probably won't have much communication skills.

",,,"

The old man didn't speak, he just glanced at it indifferently.

The old man didn't show much change in expression when Si Nan mentioned that Xie Ling'er would return to the manor with Ye Liuyun.

She had been assigned by her family to protect Xie Ling'er.

As long as Xie Ling'er herself is not in any danger, everything else is none of my business.

As for the suggestion of visiting brothels, the old man showed no interest whatsoever.

It was only because Si Nan was Ye Liuyun's subordinate that he didn't even want to pay attention to him.

But that's it.

After glancing at the compass, the old man didn't bother to say anything more.

"No way!"

Seeing the old man's attitude, Si Nan seemed to have guessed something.

He said with some surprise.

"At your age, you're not going to be unable to use it, are you?"

How can anyone not enjoy visiting brothels?

In Ye Liuyun's opinion, this was something he couldn't understand.

I don't think anyone could resist the temptation of visiting a brothel, at least that's how Si Nan sees it.

"roll!"

Sure enough, no man could remain silent upon hearing this.

Even though they are already in their seventies or eighties.

"Uh!"

Si Nan did remain silent for a moment, but only for a moment.

After hesitating for a moment, he moved closer to the old man and whispered.

"I know a doctor whose skill in treating this kind of condition is absolutely unparalleled!"

",,,"

If it weren't for the genuine emotion in Si Nan's eyes, which seemed unfazed, one would have suspected that the other person was joking with them.

He couldn't help but clench his fist.

But considering that Si Nan was Ye Liuyun's subordinate, and Ye Liuyun was a young Grandmaster, someone their family would try to recruit, they really wanted to take action immediately.

"Need not!"

After saying something curtly, she turned her head away, clearly not wanting to talk to Si Nan anymore.

"Fine!"

Si Nan wasn't stupid; he naturally understood that the other party didn't want to talk to him.

He could only nod helplessly.

The atmosphere was somewhat quiet.

Just as the old man breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Si Nan wouldn't say anything more to him...

Si Nan's figure appeared once again, seemingly out of nowhere.

"Is it really not necessary?"

",,,"

When Xie Ling'er returned to Fanlou, it was already the next day.

The blush on her face hadn't completely faded yet. Interestingly, being a martial artist herself, Xie Ling'er's recovery speed was quite good, and she didn't limp when she walked.

Thinking about what happened yesterday.

Xie Ling'er's smile couldn't fade even at this moment.

It’s done!
Xie Ling'er knew very well that after this incident, she had completely secured Ye Liuyun's favor and would no longer have to worry about anything.

Even if Ye Liuyun doesn't have much affection for her.

But this one relationship is enough!
"What's wrong?"

It was only at this moment that Xie Ling'er noticed something was off about the guard who had been following her.

He seemed quite frustrated.

"nothing!"

You can't exactly say that you were bothered by Si Nan for a long time yesterday and even wanted to kill him!
After slowly adjusting my breathing.

Having cleared his mind, he looked up at Xie Ling'er and spoke.

"With someone like Lord Ye taking Miss back, the head of the family will surely value her even more!"

Although he was sent by his master, if Xie Ling'er could gain a higher position in the Xie Clan Chamber of Commerce, he would also benefit greatly.

There's nothing shameful about being a little more ingratiating right now.

After understanding the meaning behind the other person's words.

Xie Ling'er just smiled and didn't say anything more. It was something she had expected, so what was so strange about it?

Rather,

The more so.

Xie Ling'er felt more and more that her choice was right.

,,,

Three days passed quickly. Fu Zhengqing was probably still making plans and didn't have time to look for Ye Liuyun.

Because of Yan Shuzhu's previous orders, Yunhu and Guanbao can no longer openly send people to find Wei Hongfang; they can only do so in secret.

Although Yan Fuhai had scolded Yun Hu and Guan Bao for their incompetence several times, he had not urged them to hurry up.

Perhaps, in Yan Fuhai's heart, he still remembers Wei Hongfang's past loyalty.

Although he was furious at the time and wanted to kill Wei Hongfang.

But now that a few days have passed, the anger in my heart has dissipated, and I'm not so angry anymore. However, I still need to find this person. As long as I'm sure that Wei Hongfang hasn't left the capital, that's enough.

same.

The conflict between Yunhu and Guanbao is now escalating daily.

In other words, Wei Hongfang has not been found yet. If he is found, the two of them will probably really have to fight.

However, on the surface, the capital city is currently quite peaceful.

No matter how many things happen, they won't affect Ye Liuyun.

The three days are up.

The carriage prepared by Xie Ling'er was also parked outside Ye Liuyun's residence, waiting for Ye Liuyun.

Upon seeing Ye Liuyun emerge from the mansion, Xie Ling'er immediately stepped down from the carriage and greeted him with a beaming smile.

"grown ups!"

"Well prepared!"

Looking at the convoy behind Xie Ling'er, Ye Liuyun nodded in agreement.

Xie Ling'er was not short of money, so the carriage she prepared was naturally extremely spacious and luxurious, with several other carriages following behind. After all, the main family of the Xie Clan Chamber of Commerce was still some distance away from the Great Qian Dynasty.

You can't just set off without any preparation.

If you're going to camp out in the wild along the way, you can't rely entirely on hunting!
"Don't worry, sir. With the Xie Clan's guards escorting us all the way, there will be absolutely no problems!"

Even if an enemy appeared, they would definitely not be a match for Ye Liuyun, given his strength.

But it's impossible for Ye Liuyun to do everything himself.

Wouldn't that make the Xie Clan Chamber of Commerce seem incompetent?

Ye Liuyun nodded in agreement.

He didn't say anything, but turned to look at Xing'er inside the mansion.

"I'll be out for a while. If there's anything urgent, you can go to the Embroidered Uniform Guard!"

With his power in the Embroidered Uniform Guard, even if he wasn't in the capital, those people wouldn't dare to have any disloyal thoughts.

"Ok!"

Xing'er nodded seriously.

There was still some worry between his brows.

Even knowing that Ye Liuyun was powerful, Xing'er couldn't help but worry.

"Do not worry!"

Seeing Xing'er like this, Ye Liuyun smiled.

He waved his hand, indicating that Xing'er could go back.

He then boarded the carriage prepared by Xie Ling'er. Ye Liuyun did not intend to bring any people with him on this trip to the main residence of the Xie Clan Chamber of Commerce, as there was no need for it.

If something really goes wrong.

One's own abilities are sufficient; there is no need to rely on others.

Seeing Ye Liuyun board the carriage, Xie Ling'er immediately waved to the people beside her and followed him into the carriage to leave.

However, before going in, I still turned around and glanced at Xing'er.

Xing'er naturally noticed Xie Ling'er as well, but she didn't say anything, just smiled and gave a slight bow.

No matter who is by Ye Liuyun's side, as long as she has a place in his life, that's enough for Xing'er.

"This lady is so gentle and kind; I was worried she might dislike me!"

After entering the carriage, Xie Ling'er sat down next to Ye Liuyun and made a joking remark with a smile.

but.

This was indeed Xie Ling'er's true feeling. After all, she had been with Ye Liuyun for a long time, and if other women disliked her, Xie Ling'er really couldn't do anything about it.

Although she is very confident in her appearance.

But you have to know.

There will never be a shortage of young and beautiful women in this world.

This amount of capital is nothing at all.

Ye Liuyun could see through Xie Ling'er's little scheme at a glance.

He glanced at it briefly before speaking directly.

"Don't worry, I know Xing'er's personality very well. As long as you listen to me, that's fine!"

Ye Liuyun was not worried about whether his woman had any schemes or ambitions.

Ye Liuyun didn't care about anything else as long as the child was obedient enough.

Constantly improving one's strength, isn't it all for the sake of doing things recklessly?

If you still have to worry about so many things and be afraid of this and that after you improve your strength, then what's the point of working so hard to improve your strength?

"Don't you know what kind of person they are, sir? They're the most obedient of all!"

Hearing Ye Liuyun say this.

Xie Ling'er took the opportunity to hug Ye Liuyun's arm, speaking in a sweet, coquettish tone.

"what!"

Upon hearing Xie Ling'er's words, Ye Liuyun simply laughed loudly and didn't say anything more.

It's not that I believe Xie Ling'er likes me that much.

I simply believe that Xie Ling'er is a smart person, and a smart person naturally knows how to make a choice.

,,,

The main location of the Xie Clan Chamber of Commerce.

It was much farther than Ye Liuyun had imagined, but fortunately there weren't many people in the convoy.

Even with the fastest horses, it still took seven or eight days to arrive.

Ye Liuyun was quite relieved. This journey would be long enough for him to make sure he didn't miss the sacrificial ceremony. It would be such a pity to miss such a lively day.

"Is this the Xie family?"

This place is no longer within the territory of the Great Qian Dynasty, nor does it belong to the territory of any other dynasty.

Of the fourteen provinces under heaven, it's impossible for all places to be controlled by the imperial dynasty. Some places are controlled by sects or martial arts forces, and the territory where the Xie family is located is no exception.

The area within a radius of dozens of miles was controlled by the Xie family.

As one of the top business associations in the world, the Xie family's power is naturally not weak, and it can even be compared with some top martial arts sects.

Even excluding the martial arts practitioners with whom the Xie family has made friends over the years, the Xie family itself has Grandmasters in charge, and more than one, not to mention other Grandmasters.

In addition, the Xie family has a wide network of good relationships.

Even some dynasties that wanted to annex the area where the Xie family lived would think twice.

"How about it, not bad!"

Seeing Ye Liuyun step down from the carriage and stare blankly at the Xie family gate, Xie Ling'er smiled and said something.

Since they are a powerful family that controls an area of ​​dozens of miles around.

The Xie family's mansion was naturally very grand, though not as grand as the imperial palace, it was not far off.

Ye Liuyun could feel it.

There are quite a few martial artists around here, who should be the guards responsible for keeping watch, including many martial artists at the Innate Realm.

Xie Ling'er followed.

After glancing over there, his expression became somewhat wistful.

"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've been here."

"Haven't you participated in any of these internal auctions before?"

Ye Liuyun, having turned his gaze away, asked a question.

Given Xie Ling'er's status, she should be able to attend auctions like this at will.

"Yes, you can participate!"

But Xie Ling'er's expression turned somewhat melancholy.

"But what's the point of participating?"

I can't afford the expensive things, and I don't like the cheap ones either.

Even members of the Xie family have to pay to participate in such an auction. Moreover, Xie Ling'er, as a member of a collateral branch of the Xie family, was only a marginal figure in the past.

Even if you attend an auction like this, you'll only be there as a supporting character at best.

After one or two times, Xie Ling'er lost interest.

But this time is different.

Having brought back a Grandmaster, Xie Ling'er didn't believe that anyone would still look down on her.

His thoughts were practically written all over his face, so how could Ye Liuyun not see it? He immediately grinned.

"Well, it's all thanks to me!"

Xie Ling'er, who was initially feeling melancholy, started to laugh after hearing Ye Liuyun's words.

She moved closer to Ye Liuyun.

"Of course, I'll be counting on you for the rest of my life!"

"Hahahaha!"

With a loud laugh, he put his arm around Xie Ling'er and walked directly towards the gate of the mansion.

Just as the guards were about to stop her, Xie Ling'er produced a token that represented her identity.

Upon seeing this, the guard immediately opened the door.

This token proves that Xie Ling'er is a member of the Xie family. Without the token, she wouldn't be able to enter the Xie family's gate so easily.

The mansion looks very grand from the outside.

The interior is even more magnificent.

There were quite a few people around, including members of the Xie family, maids and servants, and some people who looked like chivalrous heroes from the martial arts world.

These people must have received investment from some members of the Xie family and have good relations with the Xie Chamber of Commerce.

At a glance, they are mostly acquired or innate.

Think about it too.

Even if one's cultivation reaches the level of a Grandmaster, the demand for external resources is not that high, so there is no need to rely on the Xie family so diligently.

On the contrary, these martial artists, whether they are naturally gifted or acquired, are in the greatest need of cultivation resources to break through at this stage.

Many people saw Ye Liuyun and Xie Ling'er coming over.

Many people looked on with curiosity.

Clearly, apart from those with the highest status, the others were unaware that Xie Ling'er had brought back a Grandmaster.

Plus.

Although Ye Liuyun has a great reputation in Daqian, this is not Daqian.

not to mention.

Most people have only heard of the name Ye Liuyun, the young grandmaster, but they know nothing about his appearance and have no idea what he looks like.

"I already told the patriarch before we came, and he probably knows we're almost there. With your cultivation level, even the patriarch wouldn't dare to be careless!"

Walking beside Ye Liuyun.

Xie Ling'er then mentioned some things she knew.

"Among the entire family, the patriarch has the highest cultivation level, reaching the mid-stage of Grandmaster. In addition, there are two elders whose cultivation levels have also reached the early stage of Grandmaster. These three are the three with the highest cultivation levels in the Xie family."

"You'll know when you see him, sir. Although the patriarch seems gentle, I've heard that he's extremely ruthless and skilled in a sinister soul-searching technique that's unpredictable!"

When saying this.

Xie Ling'er deliberately lowered her voice, afraid that others would hear her.
