Beast

Yang Qing leaned on the door frame. The crying and whispering in the room made him upset. He looked around the room and saw no suspicious people, so he found the innkeeper and asked for an adjacent room again so that he could see her.

Mother and daughter.

I casually asked a few questions about the situation of the three major families in Yunxi City, so as to avoid random collisions. The innkeeper had a thin face and a thick beard under his nose. He was fiddling with the abacus in his hand and talking eloquently.

Yunxi City is divided and occupied by three major families. Each industry is controlled by the three families. Ordinary people can't even set up a street stall. It can be said that they control the economic lifeline of the city. These three families are the Zhan Family, the Yu Family, and the Ye Family. Why?

These three families have such power that the government offices and the army in the city have become decorations. The reason is that both the Zhan family and the Yu family have a disciple who is an inner disciple of Yufeng Sect, and the Ye family has hundreds of years of foundation.

Although the Ye family has been in decline for a hundred years, no one has been selected by the Yufeng Sect to join the inner sect, but they still disdain the outer disciples who are like coolies and servants. Relying on Ye Hao's strength and dominance, he can still compete with the Zhan family and the Yu family.

They fought against each other, but after Ye Hao died of illness three years ago, the Ye family became increasingly weak. If this continues, the Ye family will be expelled from Yunxi City in a hundred years.

The innkeeper knows very little about the Yufeng Sect, let alone cultivation matters. He has no idea how powerful the three major families are. He only knows that the city lords in Yunxi City must also be courteous to the heads of the three major families.

The children of the big family were causing trouble in the city, and the city defense army did not dare to interfere.

The people in the city dare to be angry but dare not speak out. The three major families control the economy of Yunxi City. It can also be said that the three major families support the entire city. Any common people who dare to resist will lose their livelihood, even if they do not suffer.

As for punishment, whipping, and even starvation to death in Yunxi City.

Although there are a lot of complaints in Yunxi City, the people are still able to have enough food and clothing. If they learn how to behave a little, they will be well-dressed and well-fed, and their future will be worry-free.

The Anqing Inn here is the property of the Yu family, and the innkeeper is not a descendant of the Yu family. What he said is objective and impartial.

Yang Qing did not expect such a scene in Yunxi City, and he was immediately relieved. The inner disciples of the Yufeng Sect were so noble that the family was also in a state of decline. As the family's children entered cultivation and their strength increased, the family would

Gradually growing in size. As long as the inner disciples of the clan do not die, the clan will not decline.

Since the three major families all know how to cultivate, the market for monks in Yunxi City to trade items will also be divided between the three families, or one family will be the dominant one. With the flow of cultivation resources, the three major families must all be wealthy and have many powerful cultivators.

Monks and high-level magic weapons and techniques.

After getting to know the Ye family initially, Yang Qing not only failed to find a solution, but the thoughts in her mind became even more confusing. At this time, not to mention whether she could help her return to the Ye family, it was still unknown whether she could protect her mother and daughter.

, it is very likely that Yang Qing will be buried here.

I have not yet climbed onto the stage of no return, I have not yet reunited with Sun Xinyao, I have not yet repaid my parents for raising me, I have not yet completed the foundation building and overthrow, I have not yet become an inner disciple... there are too many things that have not been done, and I have to waste my time on such idle things.

Is the danger worth it? I can't help but think about retreating.

After Ye Lingfei and her daughter stopped crying and talked about their experiences over the past three years, Yang Qing pushed the door in with a hint of loneliness.

"Brother Qing" Ye Lingfei's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and the tears were still wet. She came to Yang Qing with a delicate smile, and her beautiful eyes were full of friendship.

Li Mengjie had already dried up her tears after three years of suffering, and now that she was reunited with her beloved daughter, she couldn't help but cry with joy. Looking at Yang Qing, her eyes looked as satisfied as those of her mother-in-law.

"Aunt, the warm water is ready. You can take a bath and relax. Later, Ling Fei and I will go buy some clothes and prepare food and drinks when we come back." Yang Qing said gently. The situation was not good at this time, and it was not good to wash away the dust.

exempt.

"Go ahead and be careful on the road." Li Mengjie nodded with satisfaction, secretly praising her daughter for her good vision.

After the warm water was delivered and the bath supplies were ready, Yang Qing and the two left Anqing Inn. Ye Lingfei's exquisite figure and delicate face attracted the attention of passers-by.

"Ling Fei, what are your and aunt's plans for the future?" Yang Qing asked softly.

"Brother Qing..." Ye Lingfei couldn't help but shed tears before she could speak, and her voice was choked with sobs.

She was torn in her heart, looking at the person she loved, unable to choose for a moment, she stopped choking and spoke softly.

Women of the Ye family who have not left the cabinet are not allowed to interfere with family affairs, and they are not allowed to study the martial arts within the family. Therefore, before today, Ye Lingfei knew very little about the family. Today, she reunited with Li Mengjie, and she only found out when she cried.

Cause of death of Ye Hao.

Ye Hao is the head of the Ye family. He is powerful and has high prestige. However, he was beaten to death during a competition for control of the city. Although Li Mengjie was not a monk and did not know how advanced Ye Hao was as an intern, but the night before the competition

, Ye Hao looked calm and unafraid, which showed that he was confident in the competition. After the competition on the second day, he was carried back. He died when he returned to the house, without leaving any last words. When he thought of Ye Hua driving her mother and daughter away,

Due to human actions, Li Mengjie guessed that her husband's death must have been caused by Ye Hua.

Ye Hua's excuse for driving away his mother and daughter was Li Mengjie's "Kefu". If there weren't so many children of the Ye family at the scene, they might have said all kinds of unpleasant things.

For the past three years, Li Mengjie has been thinking about finding out the truth of the matter and avenging her husband. However, she has fallen into poverty in Zui Feng Tower. In order to prevent her body from being raped by the men next to her and keep her chastity, she cut off her face with a broken teacup.

Despite this, Zui Feng Tower never let her go. Few people knew her identity, but she could not escape the eyes of interested people. Although she could not sell herself to receive guests, she still took her down to clean the clothes for the singers and others.

Can't do it.

Li Mengjie's natal family is far away from here, and the tragic situation of his mother and daughter is still unknown.

Now that Li Mengjie has been able to escape, she will not forget this revenge. Next, she plans to return to her parents' home to report the matter. When she is ready, she will take revenge and regain her position as the head of the family.

And Ye Lingfei is entangled with this. Yang Qing went to Danyunjiang and naturally couldn't follow Li Mengjie back to her parents' home. Ye Lingfei fell in love with him, but couldn't bear that Li Mengjie would be alone again, so she was torn between the two, and it was difficult to choose.

Ye Lingfei narrated with pear blossoms, her soft and delicate hands grabbed Yang Qing's arm and refused to let go.

Yang Qing didn't think that regaining the position of head of the family would be so simple and could be solved by killing. Even if Li Mengjie's natal family was powerful, how could the Ye family allow a widow with a foreign surname to take over as the head of the family? Is it possible to kill all those who resisted?

.

As for Ye Hua's obstruction of Ye Hao's death, the evidence is red and white. Do the children of the Ye family believe Ye Hua or a widow with a foreign surname?

It is not without danger for mother and daughter to travel alone. The mountains of Dongju are getting further and further away, not to mention the banditry, but the number of casual cultivators has also increased. Such a weak woman is most vulnerable to danger.

To the poisonous hand.

Let Ye Lingfei hold his arm and feel the deep attachment, Yang Qing was also reluctant to let go, but there was no banquet in the world, so he could only suppress his love and pity for her in the bottom of his heart. Even so, he felt that he

Betrayed Sun Xinyao.

Deep down in his heart, he already regarded Ye Lingfei as his woman, but he didn't realize it.

Although three wives and four concubines are too common, the prerequisite is that you have the strength.

In his mind, he wanted to explain the stakes to Li Mengjie during dinner. It seems that his speech and behavior do not look like someone who is dazzled by hatred, so he must have something to rely on. In and out of various shops, Yang Qing does not know the daily necessities of women.

, let Ye Lingfei choose and buy, he will just pay the money.

To the northeast of Yunxi City, Ye Mansion faces south. It has four courtyards, pavilions, pavilions, corridors and pavilions, and red walls with red tiles. Not to mention the spacious hall, there are thousands of servants living in the outer house alone.

In addition, there are still dining rooms, carriage houses, and stables. When outsiders come here without anyone to guide them, they cannot find the huts.

The inner courtyard is where the children of the Ye family live, with men on the left and women on the right, old and young, and direct and distant relatives each having their own place. In the deepest part of the Ye Mansion, a painted red three-story pavilion is the residence of the head of the family, Ye Hua.

Shi was talking to Ye Zhongxuan in the study.

"Dad, you should have killed those two girls in the first place, it would have been easier." Ye Zhongxuan complained, looking very confused.

Behind the desk opposite Ye Zhongxuan, a man under forty years old was sitting on the Taishi chair. He had a square face, thick eyebrows, wheat-colored skin, and a clean face. It was Ye Hua. At this time, he said with a bored expression, "You know how to eat, drink, and have fun all day long."

Damn it, if you weren't my own child, I would have slapped you to death a long time ago, just to compare with your big brother."

"Okay, okay, if you give me a medium-grade magic weapon, can I be beaten like this?" Ye Zhongxuan seemed to have been used to this kind of scene for a long time, and said impatiently.

"You said Ye Lingfei brought back a helper, how strong is it?" Ye Hua rubbed his brows with his fingers, not even interested in continuing to reprimand, and said in annoyance.

"Apparently, he should be a monk from the Purple Mansion realm," Ye Zhongxuan said nonchalantly, holding his arms and shaking his legs.

"What do you mean should!" Ye Hua said impatiently.

"Okay, it's a monk in the Purple Mansion Realm." Ye Zhongxuan shrank his neck and hid behind him, curling his lips and said.

"Huh, I don't know how high the world is, but a monk from the Xiaozifu realm dares to come and cause trouble. What else did that girl say? Did she ever mention coming back?" Ye Hua asked impatiently.

"That's not said, but if she dares to come back, isn't it clear that she wants to demonstrate?" Ye Zhongxuan looked at the palm that had shed a layer of flesh and blood, and said bitterly. "I thought that if I found a helper, I would have nothing to worry about.

Three years have passed since the incident. Who dares to say that it was us who killed those two girls now?"

Ye Hua frowned and thought, but did not refute.

"Dad, if it's because of these two girls that affects the fight for the market, then..." Ye Zhongxuan continued.

"Yes! In half a month, the three companies will compete for control of the city. There is no room for loss," Ye Hua said to himself with a look on his face.

"Dad, as long as you send me two servants from the Purple Mansion Realm, I promise to do it cleanly and neatly," Ye Zhongxuan said in a low voice while leaning on the crime scene.

The Ye family worships monks recruited by foreign surnames, with varying strengths.

"Bring ten more sacrifices from the Consciousness Sea Realm to prevent them from escaping," Ye Hua said calmly.

"Dad, the guy from Zui Feng Tower..."

"No! Remember, don't let your uncle know about this."
