Xu Qiyuan was still in the middle of speaking when he saw his father, who had always been calm and unflappable, behaving in such an exaggerated manner. He was stunned on the spot.
“Father, what’s wrong…?”
Xu Wenyuan, however, grabbed his son’s shoulders firmly and demanded, “Is this truly something that Ye Wushuang personally condensed and asked you to bring to me?”
“Yes, it is…”
Xu Qiyuan was bewildered. What on earth was going on? He couldn’t understand at all.
On the side, Wang Pengyuan, the Grand Hall Master, and Lei Chengtian, the Third Hall Master, also sensed that something was amiss with Xu Wenyuan. Wang Pengyuan, with a soft and sinister voice, asked, “Second brother, what’s the matter?”
Xu Wenyuan turned around abruptly, grabbed Wang Pengyuan’s hand, and his body trembled violently as he spoke in an incredulous tone, “He’s back!”
At that moment, Wang Pengyuan and Lei Chengtian were utterly astounded.
Then, Wang Pengyuan immediately stepped in front of Xu Qiyuan and demanded, “Where is Ye Wushuang?”
Xu Qiyuan was so frightened that he blurted out, “He’s waiting at the residence my father gave me…”
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
However, before Xu Qiyuan could finish his sentence, Wang Pengyuan, Xu Wenyuan, and Lei Chengtian had already vanished from the hall in a flash, leaving Xu Qiyuan standing there, completely bewildered and disoriented.
What on earth was happening?
Ye Wushuang was strange. His father and the two uncles were even stranger!
But then, Xu Qiyuan paused. Could it be… that his father had recognized Ye Wushuang’s talent in array formation and was rushing to ask him to be his master?
That was unacceptable!
His father couldn’t compete with him for a master!
Xu Qiyuan dashed off in a hurry…
In the eastern district of the city, within the Ye Mansion.
Ye Wushuang had been waiting for less than half an hour when a gentle breeze suddenly swept through the courtyard. Immediately after, three figures appeared silently.
Xu Wenyuan, looking at the young man seated calmly in the courtyard, hesitated and felt extremely nervous.
“Since you’ve come, let’s have a chat!”
The young man’s voice slowly echoed from within the pavilion.
Xu Wenyuan glanced at Wang Pengyuan and Lei Chengtian beside him, then nodded slowly and walked forward…
The three figures entered the pavilion and took their seats.
At this moment, Ye Wushuang also looked at the three of them.
Wang Pengyuan’s face was half-covered with a veil, his eyes pale gray. Xu Wenyuan was even more extreme, covering his entire face except for his eyes. Only Lei Chengtian revealed his true appearance without any concealment.
However, as Ye Wushuang’s gaze fell upon them, his hands on the table trembled involuntarily. He wanted to speak, but his voice choked with emotion.
“Grand Hall Master Wang Pengyuan.”
“Second Hall Master Xu Wenyuan.”
“Third Hall Master Lei Chengtian!”
Ye Wushuang tried to suppress his emotions and took a deep breath.
“Yuan Pengwang!”
“Xu Yuntian!”
“Tian Chengwen!”
“You… are still alive…”
In an instant, as Ye Wushuang’s words fell, the three powerful individuals unleashed a terrifying aura that seemed capable of crushing Ye Wushuang into dust.
But at this moment, Ye Wushuang let out a bitter smile, his eyes moistening as he murmured, “I am… Ye Wentian!”
In that moment, the three figures froze in their tracks.
Ye Wushuang continued, “Over five hundred years ago, Yuan Pengwang, you were just a little rascal in Qingtian City, loafing around every day. One day, your sister fell seriously ill, and you had no money to take her to the medical hall. You tried to steal, got caught, and almost got beaten to death. I saw you, saved you, and you clung to me, saying you wanted to repay my kindness.”
“Xu Yuntian, you were from the Xu family, which was originally a dominant family in the region. But after your family was destroyed, you ended up in Qingtian City and enrolled in the Qingyun Academy. However, you were still targeted and almost killed within the academy. I saved you, and you said that from then on, your life belonged to me.”
“Tian Chengwen…” Ye Wushuang said bitterly, “Although you were not one of the eighteen Wentian Guards, you were with me during the Qingyun Academy entrance exam. A first-stage spiritual beast, a Double-toothed Leopard, bit your thigh, piercing through the bone. You almost died during the exam. I carried you on my back, evaded the beast’s pursuit for hundreds of miles, and healed your leg.”
“The scar might be gone, but there should still be a mark on the bone of your left thigh…”
Hearing Ye Wushuang’s words, the three men stood there, stunned and lost in thought.
