The arrogant voice instantly echoed through the inn hall.
The next moment, a young man wearing a pale golden embroidered robe, with a face as fair as jade, but a rather fat body, like a hill, stepped out.
"Um?"
The leader, who was called Big Brother, immediately narrowed his eyes and took a step forward. Spiritual energy surged around his body, and his advanced cultivation level in the Life Cultivation Realm was clearly revealed.
Whoosh!
Nearly a hundred masked men on both sides stepped forward, obviously preparing to take action with the leader to deal with this arrogant fat boy.
"Hey? Are you still ready to take action?"
The fat boy was not afraid at this moment. He moved his neck slightly, stretched and yawned. He slightly pulled his collar to reveal the mark on the gown. He glanced at the masked man coldly and said disdainfully: "Open up."
Open up your eyes and show me clearly what this is!"
"Yangzhou, Xu family!"
Seeing the mark, the leader's pupils suddenly shrank and he exclaimed.
"Hmph, it seems you still have some eyesight!"
The fat boy seemed to have expected that the other party would be shocked, and the disdain on his lips became more intense, and he said coldly: "The robbery has reached the Warrior Inn, you are really not afraid of death!"
"Those who know the truth, get out of here!"
"Sir..."
The leader's eyes flickered, but he suddenly raised his hands and shouted: "What I did today was just as ordered, and I never meant to disturb the young master. If there is any offense, please forgive me."
"I don't know how to call you young master?"
"Hey, do you not believe me and want to spy on my identity?"
The fat boy directly exposed the other party's trick and said: "It doesn't matter if I tell you. Listen clearly. I can change my name or my surname, Xu family, Xu Ming!"
Xu Ming?
Upon hearing this, the leader suddenly trembled, staggered, and took two steps back.
Yangzhou County is one of the nine major counties in the Cangyun Empire, and it is the most prosperous and prosperous place in the entire empire, second only to the imperial capital. Its county has a population of over ten million, and there are countless powerful people.
However, unlike other counties such as Jizhou, although there are various powerful families in Yangzhou County, those families do not have much territory. The entire Yangzhou County is almost dominated by one family.
And this family is the Xu family!
The Xu family emerged hundreds of years ago. It was originally just a family born and raised in Yangzhou. However, two hundred years ago, a large number of martial arts geniuses suddenly appeared in the family, creating countless strong men. From then on, they rose to dominate other forces. In just a short period of time, the Xu family
Within the Jiazi period, he ruled the entire Yangzhou County and became the local emperor of Yangzhou.
Generally speaking, the royal family, as the master of the Cangyun Empire, will never allow this situation to occur. After all, a single family dominates a county. Once a rebellion is launched, it will inevitably cause consequences to both the imperial power and the empire.
Huge losses and disastrous consequences.
It is said that a hundred years ago, the royal family united all the major forces and prepared to take action against the Xu family; but at that time, the current head of the Xu family, through some unknown means, actually hooked up with the head of the Lin family, one of the four major families in the imperial capital.
His daughter married into the Lin family.
Later, relying on this relationship, the Lin family came forward as a guarantor, persuaded the royal family to stop the war, and acquiesced to the Xu family's status in Yangzhou.
Now, a hundred years later, relying on the big tree of the Lin family, the Xu family has not only firmly established its dominance in Yangzhou, but has also extended its reach into the imperial capital. It has become a new family in the imperial capital, with quite a bit of fame.
head.
Unexpectedly, in this small warrior inn, I would meet the young master of the Xu family, and it was the young master Xu who would avoid anyone who saw him!
Xu Ming is the only son of the head of the Xu family and the daughter of the Lin family. He is the link between the Xu family and the Lin family. What he represents behind him are the Xu and Lin families!
"It turns out that it's Young Master Xu Ming. I'm so reckless and disturbed Young Master Xu's practice. I really deserve death!"
"Now that you know you're wrong, why not get out of here!"
A hint of impatience appeared on Xu Ming's chubby face. He waved his hand and turned to leave.
"Master Xu!"
The leader suddenly raised his hands and shouted: "It stands to reason that Mr. Xu is here. Even if we have great courage, we dare not disturb him. However, we have also followed the master's order and came to look for a girl.
That girl is very important to my master, if we can’t find it, we will definitely die!”
"I have long heard that Master Xu is not only extremely talented and can be called the best person in Yangzhou; he is also generous and righteous, does not stick to trivial matters, and never makes things difficult for us lowly servants. This time, I boldly ask Master Xu to give me and other brothers a
If you have a way out, wait until we find the girl and retreat immediately, never daring to disturb Young Master Xu again!"
The leader spoke sincerely, and his bowed body was even more deeply bent. His attitude was so humble that he almost knelt down.
Obviously, this kind of behavior moved Xu Ming quite a bit, and a touch of emotion appeared on his chubby face. He immediately waved his hands helplessly and said: "Well, for the sake of being so humble,
Come on, I won’t embarrass you, young master, just search!”
"It just so happens that I am also quite curious as to what exactly the girl you are looking for has three heads and six arms, so that she is worthy of all your efforts!"
"Thank you, Mr. Xu!"
Hearing this, the leader was overjoyed and thanked him profusely.
To be honest, if Xu Ming insisted on telling them to get out, they would have to leave even if they were outnumbered at the moment!
However, at this moment, the door to the side of Xu Ming's room suddenly opened, and a white figure stepped out.
"What you are looking for is a five- or six-year-old girl?"
Ye Wushuang put his hands behind his back at this moment, glanced downwards with an indifferent expression, and said lightly.
"Exactly!"
The leader looked happy and asked hurriedly: "Have you seen this young master?"
"Um!"
Ye Wushuang nodded slightly and said, "Here I am!"
"Third brother..."
Liu Qingcheng, who followed closely, suddenly tensed up and spoke in surprise.
Ren Xiaomeng, who was sitting in the room, stared at Ye Wushuang in disbelief, her face turned pale.
"fine!"
Ye Wushuang smiled faintly, then gently waved his hand towards Ren Xiaomeng, and said calmly: "Xiaomeng, come on, come out and see if they are the ones who arrested you?"
"Brother Wushuang..."
Ren Xiaomeng was obviously confused at this moment. She walked out subconsciously, stared at Ye Wushuang and asked: "You...you don't really want to hand me over to them, do you?"
"Of course not!"
Ye Wushuang smiled and said: "You are my maid now, who dares to touch you?"
"This unparalleled young master!"
As soon as these words came out, the leader who was originally looking overjoyed suddenly turned gloomy and said in a deep voice: "This girl is my young lady. She ran away from home this time. My master was very concerned about her and sent us to look for her.
"
"I also hope that Mr. Wushuang can hand over the young lady to us!"
"Oh? You turned out to be their young lady?"
Ye Wushuang raised his eyebrows and looked at Ren Xiaomeng curiously.
"No way!"
Ren Xiaomeng immediately spat: "This person is talking nonsense. He doesn't know me at all, and he doesn't even know my name!"
"oh?"
Ye Wushuang withdrew his gaze, turned to look down, and said, "Since she is your lady, then you servants must not know your lady's name, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the leader's expression suddenly changed.
He just received a death order to capture this girl; as for the name, how could he possibly know it?
"Looking at your expression, is it possible that you really don't know?"
Ye Wushuang looked surprised and immediately said: "No way, as a servant, how can you not even know the name of your own lady?"
"So what if I don't know?"
"I don't know, why should I hand over my maid to you?"
