Ye Wushuang was nothing more than a fallen scion of the Ye family. Why should Sheng Qian apologize to him?
Moreover, within the city of Liu Yue, who was unaware of the despicable deeds Ye Wushuang had committed at the Yun residence? He had now even managed to offend the Qin family to the point of no return. Apologize to someone like him?
“Master Ye, our Sheng Dan Pavilion is open for business to all. If you have the means to purchase, we are more than willing to sell. Please, be our guest!” Sheng Qian said, courteously extending an invitation with a gesture.
Ye Wushuang glanced at Sheng Qian. If Sheng Qian had simply driven him away like Mo Chuan, he would have taken it in stride. However, this current demeanor was something else. Sheng Qian, as the head of the Sheng Dan Pavilion, was indeed a capable individual.
Ye Wushuang looked around and said indifferently, “Judging by this reception, it seems your Sheng Dan Pavilion is not particularly welcoming to me. I shall take my leave then!”
“Exactly!” As soon as Ye Wushuang’s voice trailed off, a melodious and pleasant voice rang out from the crowd, laughing, “Master Ye, if the Sheng Dan Pavilion refuses to sell to you, our Qing Yun Pavilion is more than happy to. I wonder if Master Ye would be interested in taking a look?”
The charming voice immediately captured everyone’s attention. There, by the roadside, stood a carriage. In front of it was a young woman, seemingly in her late teens. Dressed in a light blue, delicate gauze dress, she had shoulders that seemed chiseled, a waist as slender as a willow, skin like congealed fat, and an aura as gentle as a fragrant orchid. Her graceful and slender figure, coupled with her captivating smile, was truly enchanting.
“My name is Xia Yusan. I am in charge of the Qing Yun Pavilion. If Master Ye does not mind, you are welcome to ride in my carriage to our Qing Yun Pavilion in the neighboring market district to purchase what you need.”
Xia Yusan! She was also a well-known figure within Liu Yue City. Just like the Sheng Dan Pavilion, which had its roots in the capital of the Qing Yun Empire, Qing Tian City, the Liu Yue City branch of the Sheng Dan Pavilion was only one of its many outposts. The Qing Yun Pavilion was similarly based in the capital and primarily dealt in the trade of medicinal pills. It was rumored that the Qing Yun Pavilion had connections to the royal family of the capital. As for the background of the Sheng Dan Pavilion, it remained a mystery. Some speculated that it was backed by a powerful force outside the Qing Yun Empire, one that held significant influence across the entire Tian Yuan Continent.
However, within the borders of the Qing Yun Empire, both the Sheng Dan Pavilion and the Qing Yun Pavilion had formidable backing and were in direct competition with each other in the medicinal pill business. The Sheng Dan Pavilion, however, always seemed to have the upper hand, relegating the Qing Yun Pavilion to a perpetual second place, much to the latter’s frustration.
Xia Yusan was an exceptionally talented individual within the Liu Yue City branch of the Qing Yun Pavilion. Her father, Xia Lei, was the head of the Qing Yun Pavilion in Liu Yue City. Her invitation to Ye Wushuang clearly had a deeper significance.
Ye Wushuang looked at the elegant Xia Yusan and nodded, “Very well, thank you for the offer.”
“Not at all. Although our Qing Yun Pavilion may not match the Sheng Dan Pavilion in some aspects, we always welcome any customer with open arms. Please, be our guest.” Ye Wushuang then boarded Xia Yusan’s carriage.
At this point, the onlookers, realizing there was no more spectacle to witness, gradually dispersed.
Sheng Qian looked at the unconscious Fang Ming on the ground and snorted, “Bring this fellow in.”
Inside the head’s chamber of the Sheng Dan Pavilion, Mo Chuan expressed his discontent, “Master, Ye Wushuang is nothing but a good-for-nothing playboy. Although he is acting strangely now, it’s nothing to be concerned about. Why should our Sheng Dan Pavilion be afraid of him?”
“Afraid? Do you think I am afraid of him?” Sheng Qian coldly snorted, “Don’t you know what has been happening in Liu Yue City these past few days?”
“The Yun and Qin families regard him as a thorn in their throats and a splinter in their eyes, eager to eliminate him. Yet, he still dares to step out of the Ye residence. Don’t you find that strange?”
Faced with this question, Mo Chuan was taken aback and could not come up with an answer.
