In a corner of the street, two graceful figures descended from a carriage.
“Ye Wushuang, you rascal! I’ve visited your home several times, and they all said you were unconscious. But here you are, perfectly fine now, aren’t you?”
A voice tinged with mock anger rang out. It was Qing Shiyu.
Today, Qing Shiyu was dressed in a light green robe, with a pale green pomegranate skirt and a matching light green gauze outer garment. A delicate yellow silk cape draped over her shoulders, complementing her skirt perfectly. Her pretty face, with a hint of reproach, scrutinized Ye Wushuang and couldn’t help but ask, “Are you better now?”
Ye Wushuang nodded.
Hearing this, Qing Shiyu instinctively let out a sigh of relief.
Behind Qing Shiyu, Qing Shihua, dressed in a light green dress and equally stunning, approached and greeted Ye Wushuang with a nod.
Among the women Ye Wushuang had encountered in the Qingyun Empire, Chu Qingcheng, Mu Qiqi, Qing Shihua, and Qing Shiyu were the most remarkable.
Each of these four women had distinct personalities, unparalleled beauty, and unique charm.
Chu Qingcheng exuded a quiet and somewhat melancholic aura, perhaps influenced by her living environment.
Mu Qiqi was as still as a maiden when at rest, yet as lively as a hare when in motion.
Qing Shihua was as gentle and elegant as a flower, with a serene and refined demeanor.
As for Qing Shiyu… she was usually very lively, carefree, and somewhat naive, giving off an innocent and sweet vibe.
Among the four, Qing Shiyu was undoubtedly the most innocent.
“Little Feifei, you’ve gained some weight, haven’t you?” Qing Shiyu playfully pinched Ye Feifei’s cheek.
“Sister Shiyu, you’re the one who’s talking. It’s actually you who’s gained some weight, right?”
“Really?” Qing Shiyu’s face fell as she touched her smooth, delicate cheek, and said with a look of grievance, “That can’t be right. I’ve been practicing diligently lately!”
Qing Shiyu turned to Ye Wushuang and asked, “Have I gained weight?”
Ye Wushuang nodded very seriously.
“Nonsense!”
Qing Shiyu humphed and then said, “Where are you guys heading?”
“To take a look at the Shang residence.”
Hearing this, Qing Shiyu became excited and said, “That’s great! I’ll go too, I’ll go too!”
Seeing Qing Shiyu’s excitement, Ye Wushuang raised an eyebrow.
Beside him, Qing Shihua said, “You might not know, although the Shang clan is considered the weakest among the Five Great Clans in terms of background, their residence is the best constructed!”
“The vast Shang residence occupies an entire market area, spanning hundreds of acres, with mountains, water, and rivers running through it, extremely luxurious!”
Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but say, “If they don’t have the strength, why build it so well…”
“Perhaps because they feel they are at the bottom of the Five Great Clans, they want to build a more luxurious residence to show off their status!”
“Let’s go together then!”
The four of them set off together…
Now, with the company of the two princesses, Qing Shihua and Qing Shiyu, they attracted even more attention along the way.
Qing Shiyu couldn’t help but laugh and say, “You’re quite famous now, with a huge reputation. Within the empire, it’s still called the Five Great Clans, but the Shang clan has become the Ye clan!”
“And strangely enough, the Dark Soul Hall has gradually taken over all the Shang clan’s businesses, and the other four clans haven’t been secretly scheming… Have they completely become afraid of you?”
No scheming?
That might not necessarily mean they’re afraid!
This time, both the royal family and the Qingyun Academy have come to his aid, so the four clans are cautious.
But if you say they’ve given up the idea of killing him,
that’s absolutely impossible!
The most likely scenario is that the four clans are also waiting for reinforcements.
After all, back in the day, the Ye clan’s eighteen Ask-the-Heavens Guards, all at the Myriad Laws stage, could not have been defeated even by ten Five Great Clans plus ten royal families.
Since there was interference from the Holy Pill Sect and the Tianji Mansion back then, now that the Ye clan has made a comeback, the Holy Pill Sect and the Tianji Mansion can’t possibly ignore it.
They’ve just been busy with the Hundred Nations Martial Contest recently and probably haven’t had the chance to act yet.
Once these two sides get involved, it won’t be a contest at the Tiangang stage anymore; it’s likely to become a battle at the Myriad Laws stage.
They finally arrived at the Shang residence.
In front of the main gate, the guards from the Dark Soul Hall had already taken over.
“Master!”
The leading captain was none other than Li Yunge.
“Master, you’re awake! That’s wonderful!” Li Yunge was overjoyed.
Five hundred years ago, Yan Zhihua, Wu Xiaochen, and Li Yunge were Ye clan guards. When the Ye clan was destroyed, the three of them reunited with Yuan Pengwang and the others, jointly established the Dark Soul Hall, and concealed their identities.
Now, there was no need to hide anymore.
“I’ll go inform Master Yuan right away!”
In a short while, within the residence, Yuan Pengwang, Xu Yuntian, Tian Chengwen, and Ye Yunzhe all appeared.
The two sisters, Qing Shihua and Qing Shiyu, felt an inexplicable pressure when they saw Ye Yunzhe.
This man was once one of the famous trios of the Ye clan, with strength even above the eighteen Ask-the-Heavens Guards.
Even if he was not at his peak now, he was still a Myriad Laws cultivator.
“Finally awake,” Ye Yunzhe smiled and said, “Just in time. Come, let me show you the new Ye clan!”
The plaque in front of the Shang residence had already been changed to Ye Mansion.
Ye Yunzhe led the group into the residence. At first glance, there was a large square, with a main road leading to several grand halls standing in the air, and long corridors on both sides.
Entering the front hall, there were more pavilions, courtyards, and roads leading in all directions.
Ye Yunzhe walked and talked.
“All the spirit arrays in the Shang residence were dismantled and rebuilt by Xu Yuntian.”
“Some of the secret rooms created by the Shang residence’s high-ranking officials were partially preserved and partially demolished and transformed…”
There were hundreds of courtyards alone, not counting the places where the servants lived.
It had to be said that the Shang clan, as one of the Five Great Clans, had a strong accumulation.
Along the way, the warriors of the Dark Soul Hall bowed respectfully upon seeing the group.
“When are you moving in?” Ye Wushuang asked.
“We’re waiting for you,” Ye Yunzhe smiled and said, “We’ve tidied up a few days ago. In the future, the business of the Dark Soul Hall will be appropriately reduced, and we’ll take over the Shang clan’s business, which will be enough for the Ye clan’s development.”
“But recently, there has been some chaos, which will take time to sort out!”
“Since that’s the case, let’s move in tomorrow!”
“Alright!”
Ye Feifei looked at the neatly arranged courtyards and excitedly said, “Big brother, can I live in a courtyard by myself?”
“Of course, with so many courtyards, you can choose whichever you like!”
“That’s great!”
Ye Feifei felt that ever since her big brother had come back to life in Liuyue City, life had been getting better and better.
From initially entering the capital and having a large house with her own big room, to now being able to live in a whole courtyard.
Qing Shihua and Qing Shiyu also wandered around the residence.
It had to be said that the Shang residence was more magnificent and grand than the Prince’s Mansion.
Inside the residence, in a pavilion,
everyone stopped to rest.
Qing Shihua looked at the beautiful scenery before her eyes and couldn’t help but smile and say, “I’m afraid no one could have imagined that in less than a year since you arrived in the capital, you would have come this far.”
Upon hearing this, Qing Shiyu was also taken aback.
Yes!
Ye Wushuang had been in the capital for less than a year!
But the things that happened in this year were earth-shattering.
Qing Shihua asked again, “Have you made up your mind whether to participate in the Hundred Nations Martial Contest?”
