Chapter 25

Young Master Jiang Mo, his temper flaring, retorted, "Then a hundred years from now, if I'm left all alone without Xue'er, how am I supposed to live?"

Ye Zi took a step forward, pressing towards Jiang Mo, her voice icy and ruthless: "A hundred years later? Jiang Mo, have you forgotten that I once said that your cold poison is incurable and you won't live past 23? You... how can you possibly have a hundred years left!"

Jiang Mo was a little scared of Ye Zi's anger. The fear of the "roof fan" earlier came back to her, and Jiang Mo was so frightened that she took a step back. She was still going to talk back, but her voice unconsciously lowered: "Isn't there Master? Master, you are so powerful, you will heal me."

"Jiang Mo, fate brings both beginning and end, cherish it as it comes. Even if you cultivate, you never know when your death will come!" Ye Zi's expression seemed to be downcast for a moment, but she quickly regained her usual calm and fearlessness.

Jiang Mo: "Then... what about Master and Luo Hengzhi? Can they also be like Master just said, whose fates can arise and cease so easily?"

"The path of cultivation is long and winding, and parting and reunion are the norm!" Before Ye Zi could speak, Yu Yun spoke up first.

"Bullshit! What do you mean by breaking up and getting back together? My boss and my master are inseparable, forever and ever, no one can separate them!" Luo Yi was furious when he saw Yu Yun, and after hearing what Yu Yun had just said, he wanted to shut him up immediately.

“Junior nephew, don’t speak so rudely. Senior Sister is so outstanding, how can someone like you be a good disciple of hers?” Facing the irritable Luo Yi, Yu Yun was not angry at all. Her tone remained calm and gentle, as if she was patiently persuading him.

However, upon closer inspection, when Luo Yi launched into a tirade, a hint of ruthless killing intent suddenly flashed in Yu Yun's usually calm eyes, but it was quickly concealed.

Ye Zi immediately noticed that Yu Yun, who had been cursed at by Luo Yi, was almost on the verge of losing her composure. She lowered her head and slightly curled the corners of her lips.

Luo Yi, who was good at reading people, caught the smile that Ye Zi couldn't suppress on her lips. Instantly, he unleashed his power and took out a wooden hairpin and handed it to Ye Zi: "Master, this is what my boss specially chose for you after running around to many places. Although my boss is down the mountain, he has been thinking about you every second. It's almost dark now, and my boss still made me come up the mountain just to give you a gift, Master."

Luo Yi chose this hairpin. It's always been Luo Yi who was in charge of choosing gifts in this exchange of favors, and Luo Hengzhi has always been very satisfied with it.

This hairpin looks simple, but it is actually made of high-quality materials, and the carvings on it are the work of the famous sculptor, Mr. Pang, which is calm and elegant.

Although Luo Yi didn't have time to inform Luo Hengzhi beforehand about choosing a gift, Luo Yi believed that his boss would definitely think that this hairpin was suitable for Ye Zi.

Ye Zi took it and put the wooden hairpin into her bracelet.

When Luo saw that Ye Zi had accepted the offer, she said happily, "I'm glad Master likes it. My boss will come back as soon as he finishes his business down the mountain."

Yu Yun smiled and said, "Luo Hengzhi is really busy. She can run around to many places just to buy an ordinary hairpin. If she were to do something serious, wouldn't it take her several days to get around?"

Although Yu Yun was in Yanshui City, he still knew about Luo Hengzhi, the top-ranked person on the substitute marriage website. He also knew that after Luo Hengzhi was crippled, he was abandoned by the Luo family and went from being the eldest son of the Luo family to a penniless good-for-nothing.

When Yu Yun saw the dilapidated tricycle that Luo Yi had driven over, a vehicle so badly that no one would even pick it up from the garbage dump, she became even more convinced that Luo Hengzhi was living a difficult life, perhaps even destitute.

As for Luo Hengzhi being able to stand up, he believed that it must be because Master Yunqing had taken out some kind of magic weapon, or that Master Yunqing had healed his leg. He had to admit that Luo Hengzhi was actually taken away by Ye Zi, which was really lucky.

However, Luo Hengzhi's luck ended there, because he arrived. He was a celestial being, not someone like Luo Hengzhi who was just an ordinary mortal. Even if Luo Hengzhi tried to draw qi into his body, it would only amount to nothing!

If we're talking about who's worthy of Ye Zi, it's undoubtedly him, who also possesses an immortal body!

He and Ye Zi were on the same path, while Luo Hengzhi was nothing more than an insignificant ant in the fleeting years of mortal life!

"Are you out of your mind? Are you looking for a beating?!" Hearing the sarcastic tone in Yu Yun's voice, Luo Yi couldn't help but want to take action.

"Luo Yi." Ye Zi stopped Luo Yi, who was no match for Yu Yun.

Yu Yun: "Senior Sister, that ordinary hairpin must be of terrible quality. Senior Sister has such an elegant demeanor, how could you use something like that? If Senior Sister likes it, Junior Brother can refine a top-grade magic hairpin for Senior Sister."

Ye Zi said calmly, "I only use celestial-grade magical artifacts."

Yu Yun was speechless, her face stiffening: "Then Junior Brother, work hard in your cultivation and you will definitely be able to forge a Celestial-grade magic weapon for Senior Sister."

"It's not a problem with your cultivation, let's go." Ye Zi walked towards the back mountain.

"Yes, Senior Sister." Yu Yun glanced at Luo Yi, her eyes filled with undisguised mockery, and followed Ye Zi away.

Luo Yi was once again angered by the other party's smug look. This guy was indeed up to no good and had impure thoughts!

Jiang Mo comforted Luo Yi: "Senior brother, calm down. Where did that guy come from? He looks respectable. When did Grandmaster Yun Qing take him as a disciple? Why is he calling Master and Senior Sister?"

Luo Yi: "He's a green tea b*tch. No matter who he is, he's no good. Stay away from him in the future. Master was definitely fooled by him and even took him to the back mountain."

"I can tell. He's quite hostile towards your boss, Luo Hengzhi. He doesn't even bother to pretend anymore when your boss is mentioned." Jiang Mo nodded in agreement.

Luo Yi then glanced at Li Xue'er next to Jiang Mo. This was his junior brother's girlfriend, so as the senior brother, he should give her a gift.

Luo Yi searched through his storage bag for a long time and found a set of jewelry. It was originally intended to be given to a wealthy businessman's wife a long time ago, but the business deal fell through and the gift ended up in his possession. Luckily, he was quick-witted and put it into his storage bag while packing up.

Otherwise, if he can't even come up with a decent gift when he meets his junior's girlfriend today, he'll not only lose face for himself, but also for his boss.

When Luo Yi investigated the Li family, he knew that there was a Li Xueer who had entered the entertainment industry and was somewhat famous.

Li Xueer is a member of the Li family, but she is different from the people in the old Li family mansion; she has good character.

Luo looked at Li Xue'er again and again. She had changed drastically, as if she were a completely different person. Her master must have given her something good.

With Li Xueer's current looks, she's bound to become a huge star. It just so happens that Mingyan Jewelry, under the boss's control, needs to change its spokesperson, so Li Xueer is definitely worth considering.

"Sister-in-law, this is a gift from your senior brother. We met in a hurry, so I didn't have time to prepare. Please don't mind." Luo Yi handed a plainly packaged box to Li Xue'er.

Li Xueer accepted it: "I don't mind, thank you, senior brother."

"See you later!" Luo Yi said, turning and leaving.

Jiang Mo watched as Luo Yi rode off on a beat-up tricycle, its parts rattling and clattering. Jiang Mo sighed inwardly, thinking how tough his senior brother's life was!

"Xue'er, don't be disgusted. This is also my senior brother's kind gesture. You know that my senior brother is with Luo Hengzhi, and Luo Hengzhi's situation is a bit difficult. It's okay, I'll buy you something better in the future."

As Jiang Mo spoke, he opened the box Luo Yi had given him, and his eyes widened in surprise.

Li Xueer recognized the jewelry inside immediately: "This isn't from Mingyan's first collection; the Xuejian series is dazzling!"

Jiang Mo's family deals in jewelry, so he naturally recognized that this was indeed a product of his family's strongest competitor. If he remembered correctly, this set was worth 20 million on the market.

"Wasn't Luo Hengzhi expelled from the Luo family? How come my senior brother could just casually offer such a gift?" Jiang Mo asked, puzzled.

Li Xue'er looked at the ordinary-looking box in her hand: "Could it be a mistake? This is too valuable, it's better to return it to my senior brother."

"No way! There's no reason to return a gift that's already been given. Don't be so polite with your senior brother, Xue'er. We'll keep it. This set of jewelry suits you, and it's already sold out. You can't get it on the market right now. You have a red carpet event in the next couple of days, so you can wear this set." Jiang Mo was a little angry. Luo Yi, his senior brother, actually bought jewelry from his rival. That was so unfair!

He had just felt sorry for his senior brother, thinking that life was hard for him!

“But these are your rival’s things,” Li Xue’er reminded Jiang Mo.

Jiang Mo: "It's okay. Maybe if you wear it, people will think you're their spokesperson. Let's make some money off him."

"If I really become your rival's spokesperson, wouldn't that be stealing your business?" Li Xue'er smiled helplessly. Jiang Mo's ideas were always strange and unconventional.

Jiang Mo said nonchalantly, "Don't worry about those things, the main thing is that you look good in them."

Luo Yi did not go down the mountain directly after leaving, but followed Ye Zi to the back of the mountain.

Yu Yun: "Senior Sister, there's always something off about my swordsmanship, but I can't figure out what's wrong. I'd like to ask you for some pointers."

Ye Zi raised her hand, signaling Yu Jun to make a move.

Ye Zi followed Yu Yun to the back mountain mainly to see what kind of cultivation technique Yu Yun practiced and what this person was planning to do.

Yu Yun transformed his spiritual energy into a sword, gracefully and freely twirling it. His moves then changed like flowing water, his sword energy sweeping across the land, causing mountains to crumble and the earth to split in its wake.

Yu Jun's eyes were cold, his movements decisive, and his swordplay was both fluid and incredibly fast.

[She really has some skill; Ye Zi could tell that Yu Yun was not just a pretty face.]

"Damn, this green tea guy... he's got some skills!" Luo Yi watched from a distance, but he could still feel the pressure of the sword energy. Luo Yi secretly felt lucky that he hadn't gotten too close, or he would have been swept away by this sword.

Luo Yi suddenly felt a little worried about his boss: "Boss... this opponent, sigh, boss, you should pay more attention to Master, let's go back to the mountain!"

Ye Zi flew forward and summoned her spirit sword to meet Yu Yun's sword energy. When Yu Yun saw Ye Zi make her move, he knew that Ye Zi had seen his strength.

Unable to suppress the pleasure on Yu Yun's lips, she swung her sword to meet the attack. The moment the two swords clashed, the surrounding spiritual energy surged. The brightly blooming flowers on the ground were cut off by the sword energy, and various flowers were continuously swept into the air, swirling between the two swords, and then shattered into petals by the sword energy, scattering all over the sky. As Ye Zi and Yu Yun exchanged blows, the flowers flew down between the two of them.

The fighting shouldn't be too visually appealing, and the graphics shouldn't be too aesthetically pleasing!

Upon seeing this, Luo Yiwei's heart sank completely!

From the very beginning, Luo Yi turned on his phone and sent the live video of Ye Zi and Yu Jun fighting to Luo Hengzhi. He just wanted his boss to pay attention, but he didn't want his boss to give up like he did. Could this video be deleted? Was he out of his mind to turn on live transmission?

"Should we do this..." Luo Yi began to doubt his life, he was actually bewitched into thinking that the two people in front of him were a perfect match.

Pshaw, pshaw, pshaw! This is an illusion, a false impression!

His eldest son has already mastered Qi, and he will definitely become even more powerful in the future. His master can only be his eldest son's master!
