Chapter 40
“You old thing who doesn’t know what’s good for you! I was respecting you calling you uncle. If we fall out, we can make the Ye family disappear from Qingyang in minutes!”
Lin Hao narrowed his eyes, a cold light flickering in them. He stared coldly at Ye Canghai, who was beaming with joy, and thought to himself.
“Young Master, what should we do now?”
At this moment, the black-robed revered elder behind Lin Hao asked via voice transmission.
“There’s no hurry. We’ll stay here and watch the show. As long as I’m here today, the Ye family and the Su family can’t unite by marriage!”
Lin Hao said with certainty.
He was already at the first level of the Qi Sea Realm. Although he made it with the help of pills, he was still a powerful Qi Sea Realm cultivator.
Later, as long as he made that kid from the Su family look like a fool in public and publicized it, at that time, even if the Ye family had a big business, they would care about their reputation.
Even if Ye Canghai was determined to marry Ye Ruxue into the Su family, there was no need to worry.
Because this was Qingyang City!
Qingyang City was not only the Ye family’s base but also the Lin family’s!
As long as the eldest young master of the Su family stepped into Qingyang City, it would not be so easy for him to get out alive!
After all, this was Qingyang City, the Lin family’s territory!
Once the eldest son of the Su family died, who else could Ye Canghai marry his daughter to?
Only Lin Hao!
Perhaps even the Su family would blame Ye Canghai for this. At that time…
Hehe!
Lin Hao’s lips curled into a cold smile.
At that time, the Lin family would be the only life-saving straw for the Ye family!
This thought brightened Lin Hao’s mood. He reached out to pick up the tea beside him and took a sip. The corners of his mouth curled up into a cold smile. He was ready to watch a good show.
However, at this moment.
Ye Canghai, who was pacing back and forth in the hall, suddenly thought of something and shouted, “Anybody? Bring me the best tea leaves!”
“Hmm?”
Hearing this, Lin Hao, who was holding a teacup, instantly froze.
He looked at the cup of tea in his hand, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. His face suddenly darkened.
…
A moment later.
Led by the servants, two people, old and young, appeared in the reception room.
The man taking the lead was a white-robed youth.
He stood tall and straight, his hair falling down like a waterfall. His eyes were as bright as the stars, and there was a gentle smile on his lips.
As soon as he appeared, he attracted the attention of everyone in the reception room.
The first thought that came to everyone’s mind was this young man was so handsome and had measureless charm.
The white-robed young man cupped his hands at Ye Canghai and said in neither a haughty nor humble manner, “Nice to meet you, Uncle Ye! I’m Su Chen.”
“Emm? Good!”
Ye Canghai came back to his senses after hearing that. He praised Su Chen repeatedly and stood up to walk to the center of the reception room. he said while walking, “Just as your father said, you are a man with a striking appearance!”
“Thank you, Uncle Ye…”
Su Chen smiled and nodded.
“You must be tired from the journey. Take a seat and rest. I’ve just prepared some high-grade spiritual tea for you. If you like it, bring some when you go back. I have plenty here.”
As soon as Ye Cangha finished speaking, he came up to Su Chen, grabbed his arm, and walked towards the upper seat on the right.
Su Chen casually glanced around. After seeing Lin Hao, he only paid a little attention.
In his opinion, this man should be from the Lin family.
Ye Canghai did not have any intention of introducing Lin Hao to Su Chen and simply ignored him.
As soon as everybody was seated, a servant served him a cup of spiritual tea.
Su Chen casually received it and took a sip before putting it aside.
Ye Canghai sized Su Chen up and down. After a long while, he said, “Nephew Su, I wonder how is your father recently?”
“Thank you for your concern, Uncle Ye. My father is well. when I return home, I will definitely send your regards to my father on behalf of Uncle Ye.”
Su Chen said with a gentle smile.
“Good! Good! Good!”
Ye Canghai stroked his beard and shouted out three words with a gratified expression.
The more he looked at Su Chen, the more satisfied he was with Su Chen than with Lin Hao.
Not only was Su Chen handsome and charming, but he was also very polite and well-mannered.
This kind of son-in-law was simply rare. It was now or never.
Ye Canghai felt that Su Chen was someone worth trusting the moment he saw him.
It would be perfect for his daughter to marry him!
Not to mention that Su Chen was at the first level of the Qi Sea Realm!
With Ye Canghai’s eyesight, it was not difficult to see that Su Chen’s foundation was very solid and his cultivation was extremely strong.
It was not something that Lin Hao, who relied on medicinal pills, could compare to.
Lin Hao, who relied on pills to improve his strength, probably could not even resist more than half a move of Su Chen!
No!
It was possible that he would not even be able to hold out for half a move!
“Nephew, since you’ve come, stay in Qingyang City for a few more days. Give me the chance to be a good host!”
Su Chen’s brows furrowed slightly when he heard this, but he soon relaxed. He nodded slightly and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble uncle.”
He was just weighing whether he could rush back for the inner sect assessment in nine days.
However, on second thought, this place was actually not very far from the Great Mystery Sect. One day was enough.
It was possible for him to stay here for a few days.
Thinking of this, Su Chen gave a slight signal from the corner of his eye. Then, he smiled and said, “I won’t hide it from uncle, I came today to ask for a favor!”
“Oh?”
Ye Canghai heard this and his eyes lit up. He raised his head and looked at Uncle Fu.
He knew that they finally came to the point!
But he couldn’t appear too anxious.
After all, he was the one marrying his daughter off. If he appeared flustered, it would lose the face of the Ye family.
Ye Canghai retracted his gaze and slowly raised his hand. He stroked his beard and pretended as if nothing had happened. He looked at Su Chen and said indifferently, “What is it?”
“I came here today to…”
Su Chen cupped his hands at Ye Canghai and began stating his purpose.
But before he could finish the sentence, a cold snort suddenly came from the side.
“Humph!”
Lin Hao had been ignored by Su Chen and Ye Canghai for a long time. Now, he finally had the opportunity to make his presence known. Therefore, he quickly gave a snort.
Were they really going to ignore him as long as he was silent?
