“Ye Mansion?” Qing Shiyu asked curiously, “Could it be that someone from the Ye clan survived back then?”
Xu Qi yuan, however, could only look at Qing Shiyu speechlessly. He then shifted his gaze to Ye Wushuang and said with a smile, “Brother Ye, starting from today, this mansion is yours!”
Upon hearing this, Qing Shiyu was taken aback.
Was the grand gift Xu Qi yuan had mentioned this very mansion?
“Hey, Xu Qi yuan, you’re really going all out, aren’t you?” Qing Shiyu immediately said, “Even as the son of the second master of the Dark Soul Hall, you couldn’t afford this mansion, could you?”
“This is the Eastern District, less than ten miles away from the Qingyun Academy. The land here is incredibly valuable, even more so than the Northern District where the imperial palace is located. How could you possibly afford it?”
Xu Qi yuan, however, simply smiled complacently and ignored Qing Shiyu. He led the group straight through the gate.
Once inside, they were greeted by a spacious front courtyard exuding an ancient charm. The ground was paved with bluestone, and the white jade steps were covered in intoxicating fallen petals. The colorful glazed tiles on the roof refracted dazzling rays of light.
Beyond the front courtyard lay a series of courtyards, with pavilions, towers, and bridges over flowing streams, all arranged in a picturesque manner. It was evident that the layout of this mansion was meticulously designed, and with its area of more than ten acres, it could easily accommodate a hundred or two hundred people. In the capital of the Qingyun Empire, it was truly a luxurious residence.
“Quite impressive!” Qing Shiyu walked around the courtyard with his hands behind his back, examining everything with great interest.
Ye Feifei’s face was also filled with astonishment and curiosity. This mansion was far more beautiful than the Yun Mansion she had seen in the Liuyue City.
Ye Wushuang, on the other hand, looked at Xu Qi yuan and asked curiously, “You didn’t give this to me, did you?”
Xu Qi yuan immediately replied, “Brother Ye, you have a keen eye. It’s not from me. This house belongs to my father.”
“My father heard about what you did for me and was very grateful. He asked me to give this house to you. Now, it’s all yours.”
Ye Wushuang raised an eyebrow.
Just for that, he was given such a mansion?
“I only learned a few days ago that you are the son of the second master of the Dark Soul Hall. But I didn’t know who your father really is.”
“My father’s name is Xu Wenyuan. In the past, along with his sworn brothers Wang Pengyuan and Lei Chengtian, they made a name for themselves in the Qingyun Empire and established the Dark Soul Hall.”
“The Dark Soul Hall initially did things similar to the Soul-Devouring Hall, but gradually grew stronger and gained many connections. It became quite famous within the Qingyun Empire and is now a major power.”
Xu Qi yuan didn’t hide anything. He knew that if he didn’t explain clearly, Ye Wushuang, with his temperament, would never accept the mansion.
“This mansion is truly a gift for you, and my father has no demands in return,” Xu Qi yuan said earnestly. “Mainly, he saw that my array skills have improved significantly…”
“You must accept this mansion!” Before Ye Wushuang could say anything, Xu Qi yuan continued, “I consider you a friend. The technique of refining array patterns you taught me is far more valuable than this mansion.”
Ye Feifei also walked over, her eyes shining with excitement.
“Does Feifei like it?” Xu Qi yuan asked.
“Yes, it’s so beautiful. The rooms are so big.”
“Good, I’m glad you like it.” Xu Qi yuan patted Ye Wushuang’s shoulder and said with a smile, “See, even Feifei likes it. Why wouldn’t you?”
“Moreover, you’re about to join the Qingyun Academy. You’ll be eating and living there. But what about Aunt Liu, Uncle Ye, and Feifei? They need a place to stay, right? Can they live in the Qingyun Pavilion forever?”
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang glanced at Xu Qi yuan and then said, “Alright, I’ll accept the mansion.”
“Perfect!”
Xu Qi yuan had never imagined that one day he, as the young master of the Dark Soul Hall, would give such a grand gift and still worry that it wouldn’t be accepted.
Seeing Ye Wushuang agree, Ye Feifei immediately jumped up excitedly, “Really, brother?”
“Really!”
“Great!” Ye Feifei bounced up and down happily, “I want that room, the biggest one.”
Ye Feifei skipped away excitedly.
Seeing this, Xu Qi yuan smiled warmly. He had figured out Ye Wushuang’s character. Anything that Ye Feifei liked and that could make her happy, Ye Wushuang would never refuse.
“The security of this mansion is also guaranteed. At its core, there is a third-grade spirit array. Once activated, even someone at the Heavenly Gang realm would find it hard to escape…”
“Let me show you!”
With that, Xu Qi yuan led Ye Wushuang to the back of the mansion, and eventually, they arrived at a pavilion. Immediately, Xu Qi yuan gathered spiritual patterns in his palm and directed them towards the stone table inside the pavilion.
Instantly, the surface of the stone table began to form spiritual patterns that echoed and shone, forming a design.
“Tiger’s Dominance Over Three Days Array!”
Upon seeing the design, Ye Wushuang’s expression froze, and he couldn’t help but exclaim.
