"That's because I wanted to see what they were capable of that earned them such praise from those Sarkaz. If they truly have some unique ideas for mineral sickness medicine, I wouldn't mind a mutually beneficial exchange with them."

Wei Yanwu talked about mutual benefit, but his expression looked like he had won twice.

"Speaking of which, by now, the company's registration procedures should be complete. Let me take a look at their information. Come on!"

Wei Yanwu waited for the usual silent appearance of Hei Luo, and then handed over the information in response, but this time, he waited for several breaths, and the surroundings were still quiet.

"!!!"

This abnormal situation immediately made Wei Yanwu alert. He took a step forward and protected Wen Yue behind him. He put his right fingers together, and a red sword energy flickered between his fingers.

"Snow!"

A short knife slipped out of Wen Yue's sleeve, and she shouted the name of her guard.

"lady…"

The girl with white hair, short ears and vertical pupils just poked her head out from over the wall, but before she could finish her words, she was grabbed by the back of the neck by an iron hand covered in armor, and disappeared from the top of the wall in a flash.

There was a very faint whisper coming from behind the courtyard wall. Thanks to the extraordinary physical fitness of the dragon clan, Wei Yanwu vaguely heard something.

"You guys really let your guard down... How could such a small girl escape your perception?"

"Boss, you said you would only deal with Hei Mino and not the others... and who would have thought that the East Country ninjas would be standing guard and hiding in the pool?"

"Yan Country is swearing!!! Go back and practice more, don't quibble!"

“…The Lord has arrived, please stop making trouble…”

Wei Yanwu's expression was a little subtle, but he was also a little worried about Hei San. Those were his personal guards, and the death of one of them would be heartbreaking for him.

But before Wei Yanwu could think about anything else, the door of the courtyard was knocked loudly.

Chapter 139 Yan Wen's Visit

Relying on his great skills and courage, Wei Yanwu accumulated the Chixiao sword energy at his fingertips and opened the gate of the courtyard.

As the courtyard door creaked, Yan Wen held his sword and gave his brother, whom he had not seen for nearly 30 years, a self-proclaimed kind smile.

"I haven't seen you for 30 years. You look quite mature now, brother."

Yan Wen strode into the courtyard, and the guards behind him followed closely, carrying the restrained black straw raincoat as they entered one after another. The last guard seemed to have been scolded and looked a little depressed, holding the still struggling ninja girl in his hand.

Every time Yan Wen took a step forward, Wei Yanwu took a step back. The sword energy in his hand began to flicker, revealing his panicked state of mind that had lost his composure.

"Why, we haven't seen each other for many years. Brother, your expression really hurts my heart."

The more panicked Wei Yanwu became, the happier Yan Wen felt, and his tone was full of mockery.

"..."

But Wei Yanwu is Wei Yanwu after all. Being able to control a financial city like Longmen for more than 30 years, he naturally has developed a big enough heart. He quickly adjusted his state and looked sharply at his brother whom he had not seen for a long time.

"I thought something big had happened in Baizao. It seems that the information control on Longmen is just your anger that has finally broken down. Are you planning to get rid of me? Nonsense!"

Wei Yanwu spoke with the tone of an elder brother lecturing his younger brother. In his opinion, if someone wanted to take his life, they could just issue an imperial decree to grant him wine. Why waste the country's strength on such a trivial matter?

Wei Yanwu was not afraid of death. When he first entered the palace with the Grand Tutor and Chi Xiao to advise the emperor, he had already prepared himself for the subsequent liquidation by his "jealous" brother. Now he had lived for more than thirty years, which was enough. It was a pity for his old brothers and his lover Wen Yue.

He subconsciously looked behind him. If Wen Yue had any intention of retreating at this moment, Wei Yanwu would naturally do his best to fight his way out and send Wen Yue away.

But after being married for so many years, Wen Yue had long been aware of the risks her husband faced. Facing Wei Yanwu's inquiring look, Wen Yue shook her head without fear.

“…Am I that bad?”

Looking at the couple in front of him who seemed to be going through life and death together, Yan Wen felt a little pain in his stomach, and the pleasure he had just felt from seeing Wei Yanwu's expression change was mostly gone.

"My dear brother, I've been sitting on that broken chair and still haven't found a queen. Can you please stop putting on this act in front of me? If you keep going like this, I'll have to find a dump truck driver to take you away even if I don't want to kill you."

Yan Wen was also infected by Si Ye these days. In this state of being unable to hold back, he said something sloppy, which completely dispelled the stomach-ache atmosphere that had just been brewing between Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue.

"...Not going to kill me? Then why did you go to all the trouble to come to Longmen?"

The king does not meet the king. Wei Yanwu knew how sensitive his identity as the former crown prince was. If this meeting today were to be spread, it would cause a huge uproar in the court of Baizao. That was why he was a little skeptical of Yan Wen's words.

After all, Yan Wen went through so much trouble, it couldn't be that he came to Longmen just to eat the scale pills.

"Oh, my brother, look at you now. Yanwu, who once wanted to be a hero, has lost his former heroic spirit. Instead, he looks like a sentimental old man who is hesitant and worried."

Yan Wen's tone was somewhat melancholic. His elder brother, the Crown Prince, was once a chivalrous man who wanted to put an end to all injustices in the world. However, he had now become a qualified politician and no longer had that heroic spirit.

But it doesn't matter, he has changed. After wearing the dragon robe for more than 30 years, Yan Wen is no longer clear about what he originally wanted to do. Fortunately, he met Lord Si Ye and finally got relief.

The memories in his mind flashed by like a flash. Yan Wen teased his brother's timidity while taking out the imperial edict sent to him by Si Ye from his sleeve.

"Xuan, obey the order of the Supreme True Dragon, and enthrone the Yan clan's King Wen, giving him the title Chun. He will enjoy support and be granted the title of Dragon Gate, allowing him to travel throughout the four seas and eight wildernesses. I also appoint the Dragon Gate Governor Wei Yanwu to obey the imperial edict and meet all of King Chun's food, clothing, and other necessities without any negligence."

Yan Wen spoke clearly, reading out the pardon and order in the imperial edict word by word, his majestic voice echoing in the courtyard.

Ah? ? ?

When Wei Yanwu listened to the pardon and orders in the imperial edict, he was stunned at first, and then confused, with only one thought left in his mind.

What kind of trick is this? Yan Wen, aren't you a real dragon? You give yourself the title of king and grant yourself land all the way to Longmen just to eat and drink for free. You are crazy!

Looking at Wei Yanwu who seemed to want to complain but didn't know where to start, and seeing the expression on his face constantly changing like a color palette, Yan Wen showed pleasure. This was exactly what he wanted to see.

He waved to the guards behind him, and they put down the knocked-down Black Shroud Shadow Guard. The guard at the back also put Ninja Bai Xue on the ground. The latter turned into a white light as fast as lightning, and stood trembling in front of Wen Yue.

"Shirayuki, there's no need to be on guard."

Wen Yue looked at Bai Xue, whose tail was so scared that its fur stood up, but who was still standing in front of her, and whispered to her to comfort her.

Although Wen Yue also found many flaws in the imperial edict, she also understood the implication that Yan Wen was not here to take her husband's life, and she felt a little relieved.

"No, you actually abdicated?"

Wei Yanwu finally reacted and looked at Yan Wen in disbelief as he watched a show.

The imperial edict was true, and Yan Wen's arrival was also true. Wei Yanwu knew that although his brother was "jealous", he always had a sense of responsibility, otherwise he would not have managed the Yan Kingdom diligently after Yan Wen ran away.

Now that Yan Wen can easily leave Baizao and hold such an imperial edict, it can only mean one thing: the responsibility of the True Dragon is no longer on his shoulders.

"Brother, what you said is true. I abdicated early to avoid becoming old and incompetent like my father. It's not too much to call me a good and wise ruler."

Yan Wen was calm and composed, as if he was dissatisfied with the accusations in Wei Yanwu's words.

"fart!"

Wei Yanwu's eyes widened, and his face, which seemed to be a throwback to the gods, was filled with all kinds of emotions.

Wei Yanwu knew clearly that he and Wen Yue had no children, and his brother had not been heard of having any heirs for all these years. If Yan Wen abdicated, the new king would have to be chosen from the royal family. In their lineage, there were only the two of them and their sister. No matter who the new king was, it represented the transfer of the main lineage, which was equivalent to losing the ancestral foundation.

Even if he had stayed in a city known for its openness for a long time, this kind of behavior was enough to make Wei Yanwu anxious and angry.

"You...I...asshole!"

"Hey, you're still scolding me. It seems I've been too nice to you, brother. But it just so happens that we still have a score to settle."

After putting the imperial edict away, Yan Wen stretched his arms and drew out his sword. The shining blade reflected a chilling light that was captivating.

"Are you looking for me to settle the score?"

Wei Yanwu was also furious, and walked towards Yan Wen with a glare on his face.

"I still have a score to settle with you!"

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Wen Yue let go of the hand that was comforting Bai Xue. Just as she was about to dissuade them, she saw Yan Wen looking at her.

"Sister-in-law, this is a matter between me and my brother. Let us solve it ourselves. It's better for you to stay out of it."

The word "sister-in-law" confused Wen Yue. Her marriage with Wei Yanwu was carried out secretly at the beginning, and was not recognized by either Yan State or Dong State.

Now that Yan Wen, who was a former True Dragon and also the younger brother of a dragon, called her sister-in-law, Wen Yue was so happy that she was a little dazed. In the blink of an eye, Yan Wen had already grabbed a sword and was fighting with Wei Yanwu.

Chapter 140 Brotherly Friendship and Respect (Wrong)

"You can only swing your sword randomly, right? Where's the Chixiao Sword Technique?"

Wei Yanwu easily dodged the incoming sword, as if he had finally found a way to vent his anger, and laughed at Yan Wen's martial arts.

"Do you think I'm like you? I only need to manage a small dragon gate?"

Yan Wen's martial arts skills were not as good as Wei Yanwu's to begin with. During his thirty years as a True Dragon, the hard work and paperwork had completely ruined his martial arts skills. Not to mention the Chixiao swordsmanship, he now only knew how to hack around blindly.

"Da Yan's nineteen administrative districts! I carry them all on my shoulders, along with the Sui Beast. As for you, you can enjoy yourself in Longmen!"

"Bullshit! You're tired because you demoted all the capable officials! I don't even know what you're jealous of!!"

Although Wei Yanwu could dodge Yan Wen's attack, Yan Wen's sword was too sharp. He had nothing in his hands and could not fight back. He couldn't really use the Chixiao sword energy to stab his brother.

"Jealous? They are your prince's team! I use them to decide whether the court will listen to you or me!"

Yan Wen almost choked. He didn't expect that his brother, who seemed to have made great progress, was still as stubborn as before.

When Wei Yanwu ran away, Yan Wen was forced to take the throne on the first day. Two-thirds of the ministers in Houde Hall were the team trained by Wei Yanwu when he was the prince. I just want to ask, will this work?

"And I'm jealous. Who am I jealous of? I'm jealous of you, a irresponsible person who runs away to Longmen to eat, drink and have fun?"

The sword flashed a clear light, cutting half of the pavilion in the courtyard apart.

Wen Yue saw that the two brothers were not fighting for their lives, but rather taking this opportunity to talk things out, so she wisely rescued the antique tea set and hid away with the confused Bai Xue.

"You're not jealous? I wonder who sent the guards to hunt him down. Is there anyone in this world more jealous than you?"

He is jealous?

Wei Yanwu's words stunned Yan Wen. He stood there in a daze for a moment and was almost hit by the collapsed pavilion. However, Wei Yanwu's sword energy surged from his fingertips and blasted the collapsed pavilion into a pile of sawdust.

But Yan Wen didn't care about this at all. He just felt even more annoyed. It turned out that this was how he looked in the eyes of his brother, a dog-like man.

"'Exceptionally foul-smelling Yan Nation swear words', Yanwu, are you an idiot? I'm going to hunt you down, I'm going to mobilize all my guards, can you survive?"

Yan Wen was almost laughing with anger. It seemed that Wei Yanwu had no idea why he was being hunted in the first place and thought that it was people he sent who were hunting him down.

"Those Black Robes of yours defected to follow you, and it's not unusual for them to be hunted down by the Grand Commander of the Imperial Guards. Yet you're blaming me for it?"

This time it was Wei Yanwu's turn to be stunned. This was caused by inertial thinking. He originally carried a sword to meet the real dragon, but who knew that his father would die of illness, and he would be pursued if he wanted to escape.

In such a panic, he had no idea who sent the pursuers. Later, for safety reasons, he changed his name and cut off contact with Bai Zao. Naturally, he put the blame on Yan Wen, the biggest vested interest.
