Chapter 1575: Brothers Mee (1/2)

t

There was a group of young men, who seemed to be in their twenties, suspiciously huddled together near Shangguan Aojian. They all wore luxurious robes and were staring at Shangguan Aojian’s group of three.

However, their gazes remained fixated on Xiao Qian or Xiao Yue most of the time. Surprise filled their faces while infatuation flooded their eyes.

“Huo Fanyun, Liu Qing, Zhou Shaohua, Ala Duogong, you see those two woman. They’re rare beauties. I never thought that I’d see such good stuff today, coming to the Changyang clan with my great-grandfather,” a young man whispered. He wore azure robes and appeared elegant and handsome. However, he also seemed slightly frivolous. The gaze he sent toward Xiao Qian and Xiao Yue was filled with infatuation.

“Of course I see them. Speaking of which, I’ve played with many beauties as I’ve grown up and many of them aren’t any worse than the two women there. However, those treasured daughters of large clans seemed to lack something compared to those two women, and ever since I caught a glance of the two of them, I suddenly feel like all the women I played around with in the past are nothing special.” Zhou Shaohua snapped open his fan. He stared at Xiao Qian and Xiao Yue, catching a glimpse of them from time to time through the crowd.

“You idiot, it’s because those two women possess an otherworldly beauty. They look like goddesses and possess a sacred appearance. Even though the women you played around with were beauties, they did not have that bearing,” Liu Qing said while standing beside Zhou Shaohua. The young men gathered together were all descendents from large clans or organizations. If they were not from the imperial family of the three great empires, then they were from ancient clans. They possessed extraordinary statuses.

“And who’s that young man? What does he belong to? He really does make me envious, having two beauties following him around. If I could be served by two women like that, I’d be willing to give up my position as a candidate as the next emperor,” said Huo Fanyun. The gaze he sent toward Shangguan Aojian was filled with envy as well as some uncontainable jealousy.

Ala Duogong’s gaze was fixated on Xiao Qian and Xiao Yue as well. He was basically salivating over them. His drool was almost leaking out of his mouth. He had also played with many women in the past, but he had never seen anyone with bearing like them. The women he had played around were nothing special compared to the two woman before him.

“I have to find a way to take the two of them away with me!”Ala Duogong rubbed his hands. He liked Xiao Qian and Xiao Yue more and more as he stared at them for longer and longer. He wanted to take them for himself. Moreover, he was confident that he had the ability to take them away. He came from an ancient clan and his ancestor was one of the few Saint Emperors on the continent.

Huo Fanyun smacked Ala Duogong’s head and told him off. “Duogong, why don’t you have a look at where you are? This is the Changyang clan, not your Ala clan. They’ll never belong to us. Let’s go find our man Xu and tell him about them. His father’s about to become the patriarch of the Changyang clan. He’s the only son of the patriarch, so he’ll become the young master of the clan. He’ll become the patriarch sooner or later as well. Let’s use this time to consolidate our relationship with him. He’ll be able to assist us when we take power.”

Huo Fanyun took out a piece of white jade from his Space Ring and immediately crushed it. Huo Fanyun had known Changyang Xu for many years now. As a member of an empire’s imperial family, he was adept at forming groups so that he could consolidate his status and expand his influence. He had become acquainted with Changyang Xu, and it didn’t matter how much it had cost him a few years ago, but it would help him become a viable candidate as the crown prince. After some purposefully orchestrated events, he finally established ties with Changyang Xu. Although Changyang Xu had never treated him with any importance despite being a part of the imperial family, Huo Fanyun did not mind. He maintained the appearance of a yes-man before Changyang Xu. To him, as long as he could cling onto Changyang Xu, he might even gain enough power to compete for the position of crown prince and emerge victorious.

Changyang Xu was currently beside Changyang Ba, constantly greeting the representatives from various large organizations. Changyang Xu appeared extremely obedient before the older people, constantly bowing to them and politely greeting them.

At this moment, Changyang Xu’s face changed. He could sense that his piece of jade in his Space Ring had been shattered. He had given Huo Fanyun the other piece of jade that was entangled with it. Huo Fanyun had always followed him around the past few years, basically abiding by everything he said, gradually allowing the arrogant Changyang Xu to admit Huo Fanyun’s existence. Changyang Xu had gifted him a piece of jade so that he could use to contact him when important matters arose.

Changyang Xu approved of Huo Fanyun following him, but he never treated him as a friend. Most of the time, Huo Fanyun was just a follower in his eyes.

“What does Huo Fanyun want at a time like this?” Changyang Xu was curious, but he clearly could not leave.

Finally, noon approached. The ceremony was about to start. Changyang Ba and Changyang Ke appeared on the platform while Changyang Xu finally had the time to go see Huo Fanyun and the others.

Huo Fanyun immediately dismissed his dignified appearance as a member of an imperial family when he saw Changyang Xu. He went up to greet him with a face full of smiles, telling Changyang Xu about the two beauties he had seen in great detail in an attempt to curry up to Changyang Xu.

Even the other young men around Huo Fanyun had erased their arrogance. They also surrounded Changyang Xu and added to the conversation, as if Changyang Xu had become their master at that moment.

Changyang Xu stood there emotionlessly. His sharp eyes would sweep across his surroundings from time to time, as if he could not be bothered. After listening to them describe the women, he asked with some suspicion, “Are the two women you speak of really that pretty?” Changyang Xu did not waver due to what they said. He had seen many alluring beauties, especially in recent years. Countless large organizations had come to propose marriages and all of the women were great beauties, but he always looked down on them because he believed none of them were worthy of him. Although they were all beautiful, he believed that it was only a matter of waving his hand if he wanted a woman like them and a great group of people would obediently arrive at his doorstep.

“I’m completely certain. If you don’t believe us, we’ll take you over to have a look. You definitely won’t be disappointed. Only divine women like that are worthy of you.” The young men immediately took Changyang Xu with them through the crowd, headed to Shangguan Aojian’s location.
