Hearing this, Lu Yu slowly raised his head, and what came into view was a rather handsome face with introverted temperament and a bit of haggardness.
Lu Yu quickly lowered his head and cupped his hands, saying, “Those secret boxes were all left by you, my lord. Every Sun-Moon Order was personally set up by you. I’m afraid that even those beyond the Saint Venerable level, without knowing the method, wouldn’t be able to open them. How could there be a fake！”
“The adults said back then that in the future, if there was someone who could open the secret boxes, it would mean that you, my lord, had returned. We have always remembered this！”
“Hmm…”
Ye Wushuang nodded and said, “Get up.”
Lu Yu slowly stood up.
In the Western Wilderness and Northern Region, he was the lofty Ninth Floor Lord of the Sun-Moon Tower in the eyes of everyone. Even the core direct descendants and powerful experts within the Ten Realms would be polite when they saw him.
But in front of Ye Wushuang, he was just a compliant attendant.
Without Ye Wushuang, there would be no current Sun-Moon Tower, let alone the so-called Nine Floor Lords and Nine Saint Venerables.
“I asked Xu Hongyi to investigate some things. You tell her to do it with all her heart. Also, you don’t have to rush to tell the other people about my return. For now, that’s it. I want to look into the death of my grandfather…”
Hearing this, Lu Yu wanted to say something but stopped.
“If you want to say something, just say it directly！”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu immediately cupped his hands and said, “The death of Elder Ji Chengli may be related to the Holy Palace…”
“The Holy Heaven Realm, the Holy Palace？” Ye Wushuang raised his eyebrows.
“Yes！”
Lu Yu then said, “Actually, over the years, our Sun-Moon Tower has had many transactions with the Ji Clan and the relationship is harmonious. However, the Ji Clan itself is powerful. We mostly just do them a favor secretly and follow your instructions, not being too partial.”
”In recent years, although Old Master Ji Chengli’s health has not been good, it hasn’t reached the point of passing away. But this sudden death, perhaps on the side of the Holy Palace…”
When the words came here, Lu Yu knelt down and said, “It’s our fault for not noticing. Exactly what happened, we don’t know yet. Please punish us, sir！”
”If punishing you now can bring my grandpa back, I don’t mind all nine of you dying！”
Hearing this, Lu Yu kowtowed bang bang, and his face turned pale.
”Get up！”
Ye Wushuang said again, “Go and check it out. I’ll wait for your news. The news of my return doesn’t need to be spread. When I need to see those few of them, I will summon them myself！”
”Yes！”
Lu Yu trembled and walked out of the room.
Walking to the end of the corridor, Lu Yu leaned against the wall, only feeling that his cold sweat had soaked his clothes.
”Uncle Lu, what’s wrong with you？”
Xu Hongyi appeared and was very surprised to see Lu Yu’s appearance as if he had survived a disaster.
”N… nothing…”
Xu Hongyi looked at the distant room and said, “Who on earth is he？”
”You don’t need to ask. I can’t tell you. Just remember, you must respond to his requests. Starting from today, all the resources of my Sun-Moon Tower can be used.”
Xu Hongyi couldn’t help but say, “Then what kind of etiquette should be used to treat him？”
”The highest etiquette. Remember, whatever he says goes. Even if he asks you to sleep with him or even asks you to die, you can’t refuse！”
Xu Hongyi was stunned.
Lu Yu looked at Xu Hongyi and said, “His appearance here is your opportunity, Hongyi. The children of our several building owners all want to take over power. If you want to stand out among the many branch building owners, he is your chance. Do you understand？”
”I… I see…”
Lu Yu then said, “The matter he asked you to investigate, investigate it immediately. The more detailed the better. After checking, tell me and I will report it. I will also check. All matters in the building can be put aside recently！”
”Yes！”
After saying that, Lu Yu left.
Xu Hongyi stood there, a little dazed.
Who exactly is this Ye Wushuang？
The sun set in the west.
Ye Wushuang and Xuan Yunni walked out of the room.
”Young Master Ye！”
Xu Hongyi immediately received the news and rushed over, saying politely, “What does Young Master Ye need？”
”Investigate the news I want as soon as possible. I’m going to the Ji Clan.” Ye Wushuang said, “During these days, I will live in the Ji Clan. If there is anything I need, I will contact you.”
”Okay！”
Xu Hongyi said respectfully.
Ye Wushuang nodded, then took Xuan Yunni and walked downstairs.
Soon, they came to the first floor hall of the Sun and Moon Tower. However, at this moment, a group of people had gathered in the hall.
Ye Wushuang stood on the stairs and looked down.
Xu Hongyi also stopped at this time, looked over, and raised an eyebrow.
At this moment, I saw several figures from the Ji family. It seemed that they had a dispute with the people of the Sun and Moon Tower.
Ye Wushuang saw Ji Mingzhe and Ji Minyao, the brother and sister, and… Ji Yuanling.
At this moment, Ji Yuanling was arguing with a fat person in charge of the Sun and Moon Tower about something.
Just then, Huang Dongjin and Han Baisong saw Ye Wushuang and immediately greeted him.
What’s going on？” Ye Wushuang asked directly.”
Huang Dongjin immediately said, “It’s Ji Yuanling of the Ji family. He brought Ji Mingzhe and Ji Minyao here, seemingly looking for you. As a result, they met that Li Yunsheng, who previously beat our deputy building master. I don’t know who the young man beside him is, but he is very arrogant.”
Beside, Xu Hongyi said, “It’s Zhuang Zhe, the son of Zhuang Wenshan, the ninth building master！”
When Huang Dongjin and Han Baisong heard this, they looked at each other and didn’t say anything.
Actually, they knew that it was Zhuang Zhe and knew that this kid had a high status, but when they saw this kid, they were very upset in their hearts.
”The son of Zhuang Wenshan…” Ye Wushuang said faintly, “What’s the commotion about？”
”This…” Huang Dongjin’s face showed embarrassment.
”You’ve been listening for a long time and don’t know？”
”No…” Huang Dongjin then said, “Ji Yuanling came, looking for you, and ran into Li Yunsheng and Zhuang Zhe. At first, I don’t know what’s going on, but as they talked, it involved the transaction between the Sun and Moon Tower and the Ji Clan. Li Yunsheng meant that the Sun and Moon Tower has been taking care of the Ji Clan. Now it’s time to change the rules. For example, the weapons and elixirs sold by the Ji Clan from the Sun and Moon Tower usually have a high price given by the Sun and Moon Tower, and the things the Ji Clan buys from the Sun and Moon Tower have a great discount. It’s time to take back some of the discounts…”
”As soon as Ji Yuanling heard this, he was not happy. He felt that the Sun and Moon Tower was taking advantage of the fire. He thought that with the death of Old Man Ji Chengli, the Ji Clan was no longer good, and the Sun and Moon Tower changed its face too quickly…”
Upon hearing this, Xu Hongyi immediately said, “Our Sun and Moon Tower has no intention of changing the strategy towards the Ji Clan. Over the years, the Sun and Moon Tower has always favored the Ji Clan, and now the upper level has no intention of changing either！”
Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but say, “So, it’s Li Yunsheng’s idea？ He, a vice building master, dare？”
Xu Hongyi’s face was embarrassed and said, “It should be Zhuang Zhe… He is inspecting each branch building this time and seems to be carrying a mission…”
Xu Hongyi and Zhuang Zhe are actually both from the second generation of the Sun-Moon Tower. In fact, the second-generation disciples of the Sun-Moon Tower are not a group of playboys. Instead, Youdaoplaceholder0 by their fathers, they worked hard to prove themselves.
Xu Hongyi is young, at the Saint Emperor realm, and serves as the master of the Qianshan Realm branch building, with an extraordinary status.
Although Zhuang Zhe is not the master of a branch building, he is responsible for inspections within the main building. He can impeach the masters of various branch buildings if they are found unqualified, and his power is not small either.
