Xue Hou patted Ye Liuyun's shoulder with one hand and said sincerely: "This is the prince's test for you. If I interfere, wouldn't I offend the prince?"
Hearing this, Ye Liuyun nodded and said, "I understand your lord's difficulties."
Xue Hou frowned and rolled his eyes: "Call me your lord? That's it. Call me eldest brother!"
"..." Ye Liuyun was a little speechless, nodded and said: "Brother!"
Xue Hou nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry too much, there will be people who will attack you openly or covertly, but they dare not go out of their way! They can only defeat you openly! They can only defeat you openly!"
Ye Liuyun heard this and nodded in agreement.
Obviously, because of the Eight Wise King Su Jinglan, this mountain can ensure that Ye Liuyun can compete fairly and openly with others.
Otherwise, if someone else kills Ye Liuyun secretly, everything will be ruined.
"I'm also planning to leave." Xue Hou said that he didn't want to wade into troubled waters, "It's just a good time to mention the ranking."
Ye Liuyun thought of Hua Baihu and Xu Canghai, who seemed to have always been challenged by Xue Hou.
"Hey, this time I went to Lu Yaotai's house to block the door. I want to see if the Lu family, one of the five great aristocratic families, dares to close the door and not fight!"
Xue Hou smiled proudly.
Ye Liuyun was a little surprised, "Lu Yaotai, it sounds like..."
"female."
Xue Hou said nonchalantly: "Don't underestimate me. Chen Nuannuan, who is number one on the list of fourth-grade geniuses, and Lu Yaotai, who is number two, are both women!"
Ye Liuyun suddenly realized.
Xue Hou smiled and said: "If I defeat her, I will be second on the list of fourth-grade geniuses."
Hearing this, Ye Liuyun hesitated and said, "Then why not just challenge for the first place?"
When Xue Hou heard this, his face froze and he rolled his eyes at Ye Liuyun, "I can't beat her! That bitch Chen Nuannuan, she is a ruthless person!"
Why does Ye Liuyun feel like Xue Hou has been taught a lesson?
"Okay." Xue Hou patted Ye Liuyun on the shoulder, "You and I will work hard together and we will be promoted together when the time comes."
Ye Liuyun nodded and was about to leave.
"Uh, that's right." Xue Hou shouted, "Don't worry, Poison Demon Ruan Tao. If I meet him this time, I will help you kill him."
"...Okay." Ye Liuyun felt warm in his heart.
After leaving Xue Hou's office hall, Ye Liuyun returned to where his team stayed.
Zhou Ke immediately asked: "What did he tell you?"
Ye Liuyun said: "He told me to be careful and he was going to leave."
Zhou Ke was a little surprised when he heard this, "There is no special mission, why are you leaving?"
"It seems that he is preparing to challenge Lu Yaotai, the second one on the list of geniuses." Ye Liuyun replied.
As soon as these words came out.
Zhou Ke looked suddenly enlightened.
Fan Hongsheng and Lu He on the side looked a little strange.
Ye Liuyun asked curiously: "What's wrong? Why do you look like this?"
Fan Hongsheng looked at Lu He, and Lu He said: "Master Xue often challenges the geniuses on the fourth-grade genius list, so that we are often disliked by others, and then no one challenges us. In addition, Lu Yaotai is my sect."
Ye Liuyun was a little surprised, "Then you are not from the Lu family, one of the five great aristocratic families?"
Lu He smiled bitterly.
Zhou Ke curled his lips and said: "Which of the five major aristocratic families does not have a population of hundreds of thousands? He and Lu Yaotai are incomparable."
Lu He nodded.
Ye Liuyun suddenly realized.
Zhou Ke said: "Xuehou is almost thirty, so I want to mention his ranking to avoid people always saying that after he was removed from the list, Xuehou was once the ninth on the list of geniuses. This is not good to hear. Xuehou was once
He is second on the list of geniuses, which is pretty much it."
"Being ranked at the age of thirty?" Ye Liuyun thought thoughtfully.
"Yeah." Zhou Ke said: "Most of the people on the list of geniuses are in their twenties, almost thirty."
After saying this, Zhou Ke looked at Ye Liuyun, Fan Hongsheng, and Lu He, and said: "Since Marquis Xue is leaving tomorrow, we are free, let's break up."
Ye Liuyun was a little confused.
Fan Hongsheng and Lu He nodded and were about to get out of the way.
Zhou Ke explained to Ye Liuyun, "If that boy Xuehou doesn't leave, and we leave, then he might give us some shoes to wear, but now that he's gone, who cares about us, I care about you, and whatever I say will be done."
"
Zhou Ke left humming a song.
When Ye Liuyun saw this, he was a little speechless, but it seemed good to follow such a veteran.
It's okay to be lazy.
After walking out of the Golden Blade Guard headquarters, looking at Ming Lun, Ye Liuyun said, "Uncle Ming, haven't you gotten off work yet?"
When Minglun saw Ye Liuyun arriving, he nodded to another guard and then walked towards Ye Liuyun.
"I'm waiting for you," Minglun said, "Would you like to come and sit at my house?"
Ye Liuyun instantly became alert. Could it be that Minglun was going to introduce his daughter to him again?
"How about going to my house?" Ye Liuyun said.
Minglun rolled his eyes at Ye Liuyun, "Whatever, I just wanted to chat with you."
Ye Liuyun and Minglun walked towards Ye Liuyun's suburban courtyard.
…
Dongchang.
Above the office hall of Feng Yifei, a Qianhu household in Dongchang.
Feng Yifei sat on the main seat, his face was ashen, and he looked coldly at Feng Tong below.
At this time, Feng Tong looked ugly, a little red, and seemed a little embarrassed.
"Father, I..."
Feng Yifei said coldly: "Ye Liuyun has left the palace and returned to the Golden Sword Guard. If the prediction is good, the prince plans to inspect him and then entrust him with important tasks."
Feng Tong's face was full of gloom, and he said unwillingly: "I'll go apologize to him."
"Hmph." Feng Yifei sneered, "The hatred for killing your father is irreconcilable. Do you think he will let you go?"
Feng Tong looked disappointed, "Please give me instructions, father."
Feng Yifei said calmly: "The fact that the prince didn't help him directly means that everything can still turn around. If he manages things in an orderly manner this time, he will naturally skyrocket. But if he messes up, haha."
Feng Tong's eyes lit up, "I understand!"
Feng Yifei glared at Feng Tong and snorted: "What do you understand? If you understand, why did things end up like this!"
Feng Tong lowered his head again.
He thought that his work was impeccable, but who would have thought that Ye Liuyun, who had already been imprisoned in the Golden Sword Guard Prison, could still stand up?
Feng Yifei said: "We can't come forward directly and let Chang Yao handle it to prepare a difficult case for Ye Liuyun. Once he messes up the matter, he will lose the prince's appreciation. At that time, we can do whatever we want.
I’m not so constrained anymore.”
Hearing this, Feng Tong hesitated and said, "What kind of difficult case is this?"
When Feng Yifei heard this, he stared at Feng Tong with cold eyes, "You want me to teach you everything, right?"
Feng Tong knelt on the ground and said nothing. He had always been like this. No matter what he did, it was wrong.
Feng Yifei was silent for a moment, then continued: "The best way to drive away tigers and swallow wolves is to let Ye Liuyun investigate someone he can't afford to offend. There are informants in my Dongchang all over the imperial capital to see which dignitary has had trouble recently.
"
After hearing this, Feng Tong thought to himself, thinking of a person in the imperial capital who must not be provoked.
