The two Meteor rank bodyguards behind her stared in confusion as Lady You Yue anxiously walked to the window area. They saw her approach the side of a black-clothed youngster who sat there.
“Mn?” Lady You Yue said, slightly startled.
Not same.
This was a stranger’s face.
The black-clothed youngster looked at her. “This Lady, what’s wrong?”
“I mistook you for someone else,” answered Lady You Yue.
After she spoke, she walked towards the stairs. There were many people under heaven who had similar looks. Likewise, how could a dignified Transcendent existence be drinking wine alone in a restaurant? This time she had indeed misidentified someone!
She gestured for her two bodyguards to follow her and walked down the stairs.
“She recognized me,” laughed Xue Ying. Going out this time, he had only changed his face. After all there were too many people who knew his face! In the first place, there was the Dragon Mountain Book. Big and powerful clans were able to get his basic information from that book, including his facial features. As for his back figure, unless that person was really familiar with him, no one would be able to figure it out.
“Looks like the Kong Clan’s days have been spent relatively well,” Xue Ying affirmed. No matter what Kong You Yue was still part of his childhood memories. It was a good thing that she could live well.
“Mn?”
Suddenly, Xue Ying’s expression changed and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Inside the private room on third floor.
Baron Yin sat inside, and his face unsightly.
“Master.” The old man next to him said with low voice, “This Kong You Yue doesn’t know how to appreciate your favor! She only relied on her relationship with Dong Bo Xue Ying. Perhaps Dong Bo Xue Ying already forgot about her. With that kind of vague relationship, she dared to be so presumptuous in front of you! In the past, we never took any regard towards this Kong Clan. That year, her Kong Clan had some luck and bought a big inn inside the province capital. Since she didn’t give you any face, we could just secretly…” he used his hand to make a cutting gesture across his throat.
He could sense that his master was extremely furious.
“No.”
Baron Yin shook his head.
In the past, the Kong Clan was not worth mentioning. They were not worth noticing in the past because, all of their clan’s property barely reached one million gold coins. Even that wealth was all because of Kong You Yue working hard for more than twenty years. Currently, because the price of inns and residences in the province capital had significantly risen the Kong Clan’s wealth now reached over five million gold coins! This evaluation was a big increase. Actually, thanks to the demon invasion, big clans rushed to settle inside province capitals. Powerful Transcendent clans that resided inside capital provinces were the ones who earned the biggest profits.
“We cannot afford to provoke a Transcendent!” Said Baron Yin gloomily, “For an inn, it’s not worth the danger!”
“Understood,” the old man replied respectfully.
Knock, knock, the sound came from the private room’s door.
Zhi ya
The door opened as a waitress entered and asked, with beautiful smile, “My lord, may I serve the food?”
“Serve food?” Baron Yin already had belly full of anger. He glanced at the waitress who had just entered. Those who were chosen to serve the third floor private room guests were young and beautiful women with good figures. Their body parts that were suppose to be curved were curved and the parts that were suppose to perked up were perked up. Baron Yin ogled the waitress’ body with a knife-like stare. His gaze made the waitress feel nervous and uneasy.
“Close the door!” said Baron Yin calmly.
“Understood.” The two guards outside immediately closed the private room’s door.
“My lord?” Probed the waitress nervously.
“I want to paint!” Baron Yin said in a muffled voice.
The waitress was secretly relieved, Paint? Paint what?
“Hurry up.” Urged the old man. The two Meteor rank bodyguards inside the room also took a step closer, surrounding the waitress.
“What do you want!” said the shocked waitress.
“Mfff” Her mouth was covered.
At the same time, one of the Meteor rank bodyguards took out a coil of rope and skillfully tied her while the other Meteor rank bodyguard ripped off her clothes to reveal her youthful white and fair skin. This harassment made the waitress panic, but she was unable to struggle since she was tied tightly with rope. She also wanted to scream but her mouth was sealed, so she could only let out a muffled sound.
Since knights have an acute sense of hearing, this private room was soundproof. If not, any talk or business inside the private room could be heard from the outside.
