C462 A tiger falling to the ground being bullied by a dog (1/2)
Ye Qian was like this when he was in the Immortal World. One thing you can't do, but you have to do the best.
Although the Golden Jade Temple was an estate that Ye Qian had ”snatched” away from him, Ye Qian still treated him like his own. The road to industrialization and collectivization was something that Ye Qian had already thought of. After all, if it was like Xue Changkong had thought, even if the entire Golden Jade Hall was spread all over the country, he would at most be a restaurant owner. This was something that Ye Qian could not accept.
In a private room in the Golden Jade Temple, Ye Qian and Xue Changkong chatted for an hour. This included industrial planning, personnel selection and removal, and a whole series of other things.
The longer Xue Changkong chatted with him, the more apprehensive Xue Changkong became, and the more he admired the youngster in front of him.
Their conversation continued until two in the afternoon before it officially ended.
Xue Changkong bade him farewell one step at a time, and sent him to the main entrance of the Golden Jade Hall. After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Ye Qian finally took a step and left.
However, neither Ye Qian nor Xue Changkong noticed that in the hall full of gold and jade, a young man who was originally immersed in eating suddenly opened his eyes. He stared fixedly at Ye Qian who was conversing with Xue Changkong with an expression of shock and excitement.
The youth sat upright in a corner of the golden jade hall. He wore a snow-white robe, had long hair, and had a handsome face that seemed as if it was carved with a knife or an axe. His entire being seemed out of place in this world.
The young man with light in his eyes stared straight at Ye Qian's back, and chuckled: ”Truly, looking for a place with broken iron shoes, obtaining it doesn't take much effort at all, chasing from Yunnan all the way to Linhai, I never thought that Poverty-stricken People would meet a person chosen from the heavens here, oh good, looks like Poverty-stricken People can return tomorrow to hand over the decree!”
After exchanging a few words with Xue Changkong, Ye Qian hurriedly left. As for the youth in white clothes, he grabbed the longsword beside him and followed Ye Qian out.
On the main road of Linhai, Ye Qian was in front and the young man was behind. The two were only a few hundred meters apart.
As he leisurely walked on the street, Ye Qian's eyes suddenly focused, and then, his footsteps suddenly quickened by quite a bit. Although he still looked like he was walking, his speed was incomparably fast. Even his figure seemed to have become absent-minded.
”Yo, you really are a practitioner. Looks like Poverty-stricken People will have to go through a lot of trouble today!”
The young man snorted, and immediately chased after Ye Qian.
Ye Qian's body flashed a few times, and finally walked into a dead end, where the young man anxiously chased after him. However, when the young man walked into the alley with his sword in hand, not a single person could be seen inside.
”Damn it, he actually let him escape!”
The young man said in a hateful manner. Then, he suddenly formed a hand seal with his hand as he said: ”Mysterious round Tao technique, Illusory Disappearance!”
Looking at the alley below, he said with a cold voice, ”Cultivators are actually cultivators. It seems like this person should be the one from the Hidden Gate that Old Xue spoke of!”
Just as he was speaking, Ye Qian suddenly saw an incredibly profound light come out from the alley, and became even more alarmed, ”A disciple of the Hollow Jade Temple, this method should be a disciple of the Hollow Jade Temple, is he a disciple of the Yuan?”
Just as Ye Qian was muttering to himself, the young man inside the alleyway released a ray of profound light from his hand and immediately looked back. That gaze was gloomy as it shot towards the tall building opposite them.
Ye Qian immediately laughed bitterly: ”Have you been discovered?”
Right after he finished speaking, Ye Qian's figure disappeared from the top of the building once again. At the same time, that body that was as white as snow appeared on the top of the building. Poverty-stricken People will see how long you can run … ”
Ever since Ye Qian walked out of the cultivation world, those who had killed Spirit Serpent Stage s, those who had killed Cow-tiger Stage s, and those who had killed Dragon Elephant s, all belonged to the realm of warriors.
How did he meet a disciple of the Hollow Jade Temple in this Linhai, Ye Qian did not do anything rash. Instead, he took a step back to see just what kind of background the other party had, and what he wanted to do next.
In the afternoon, Ye Qian was circling around Linhai, while the young man in white was using techniques to continuously search for Ye Qian. It was just that he was always a step behind Ye Qian, and once he arrived, Ye Qian would also leave.
This session of playing hide-and-seek continued until dusk. Towards those fellows who stuck to him like sticky medicine, Ye Qian could only sigh and say, ”Truly a problem!”
After saying that, Ye Qian no longer avoided the sword, but rushed towards his villa's Sky City.
When Ye Qian arrived at the peak of the Sky City, it was already late in the night, and the hazy moonlight had already risen.
Ye Qian did not return home. Instead, he stood at the peak of the Sky City and silently lit a cigarette for himself. The devilish red light continued to shine in the darkness. The smoke-filled night was unusually gloomy. With the gentle breeze, the tree branches began to tremble.
