After Ning Wenhuang and Yan Shengqiu changed their behavior, Xiang Shaoyun was able to maintain a harmonious relations.h.i.+p with them. At this time, he recalled the invitation he had received earlier, so he asked Tang Longfei, ”Big Brother Tang, do you know anything about Yu Province's Ye Clan? The Ye Clan related to the Yu Clan.”
He was all alone and did not have an effective network of information. However, he was confident Tang Longfei would know something.
”Yu Province's Ye Clan? I don't really know much about them, but Shengqiu might know more. His clan is also located in the Yu Clan's territory,” said Tang Longfei.
Yan Shengqiu quickly explained, ”Originally, the Ye Clan did not have much of a relations.h.i.+p with the Yu Clan. But about 10,000 years ago, a genius cultivator had emerged from the Ye Clan, Ye Mohen. He became Yu Clan's son-in-law, and from then on, the Ye Clan has risen in power. Now, they are a powerful subordinate clan under the Yu Clan, a tier-8 organization.”
”I see,” Xiang Shaoyun said in realization.
”Shaoyun, why are you suddenly asking about the Ye Clan?” Tang Longfei asked.
”On my way here, I received an invitation from a Ye Clan member to meet at the Yu Moon Pavilion,” said Xiang Shaoyun indifferently.
”Do you want me to go with you?” Tang Longfei asked.
Xiang Shaoyun was about to reply when Yan Shengqiu interjected in alarm, ”I might know the reason for that.”
”What do you know?” Xiang Shaoyun asked.
”It must have something to do with their emerging genius, Ye Linshan. He is only 20 years old, yet he is already a peak King. Moreover, he is a Super War Emperor capable of battling a second-stage Emperor. He has dreadful combat prowess,” said Yan Shengqiu gravely. It was as if just mentioning that genius would give him a ma.s.sive pressure.
”Ye Linshan the Green Child,” Tang Longfei and Ning Wenhuang exclaimed in alarm.
Evidently, they had both heard of the name Ye Linshan as well.
”He is now known as Green Youth,” Yan Shengqiu corrected them. ”The Ye Clan has grown to their current status due to their marriage alliance with the Yu Clan. Now, they are planning to repeat history and have a marriage between Ye Linshan and the Holy Maiden. That way, they can further consolidate their relations.h.i.+p with the Yu Clan. Brother Xiang, since you are now a son-in-law candidate, you have likely become someone he wants to erase.”
Yan Shengqiu spoke plainly, and Xiang Shaoyun naturally understood what he meant. In other words, the invitation was laced with malice.
”If that is the case, you shouldn't go tonight,” said Tang Longfei.
Xiang Shaoyun shook his head as he said boldly, ”I don't care who he is, but I want to see him with my own eyes. Otherwise, how am I supposed to stand my ground in the Dragon Phoenix Academy? How am I supposed to make Caidie my woman?”
Yu Caidie was someone he was determined to make his lover. Ye Linshan might view him as a love rival, but he similarly viewed Ye Linshan as a love rival. Thus, it was imperative that he attended the invitation that night.
