Chapter 132 Fireworks of Love
Yan Shi: ...?
What kind of style does this heir, whom Yu Xue asked, have? Why did he immediately ask a stranger if they wanted to burn down another banquet hall together?
The proposal is very appealing.
Yan Shi first replied to Yu Xue's question, "I would like to chat with Ms. Yu for a while."
The "Ms. Yu" mentioned here refers to Yu Youguan, not Yu Xuewen.
Yu Xuewen's expression tightened.
She gave Yu Youguan a warning look again, then said gently, "Okay. I'll wait for you up ahead."
Yu Youguan stood lazily against the wall, scoffing at Yu Xuewen's retreating figure, then looked at Yan Shi: "So? Do you want to cooperate with me?"
"Do you know who I am?" Yan Shi asked calmly. "I want to know that thing about you that even the Yu family head doesn't know. You don't need to tell me on your own."
She can directly use her words to open Yu Youguan's mouth.
"Oh." Yu Youguan shrugged. "Then what do you want?"
She keenly sensed that Yu Xuewen's distinguished guest this time was different from those of the past.
Yan Shi's gaze returned to Yu Xuewen in front of him: "Anything you can give me, I can obtain through a trade with the Yu family head."
"What do you have that would make me agree to this deal?"
Yu Youguan: "I only asked you to accompany me to burn this place down. I didn't ask you to help me burn this place down."
This Ms. Yanlan seems to be preparing to ask for an exorbitant amount.
Yan Shi chuckled and said slowly, "Then why do you still need me to accompany you? If you have the ability to burn down the entire banquet hall, then hurry up and do it before the banquet ends."
“I can stay here and wait for you.” She stood there and began to appreciate the 'Damn it, I’ve been found out' expression on Yu Youguan’s face.
“Alright,” Yu Youguan pouted, “My strength is still lacking. In the future, at most ten years. Once I break through to the Great Spirit Master level, I can accomplish this on my own. Do you really want to miss this opportunity?”
Why not help her now, while she's still struggling?
Yan Shi: "I'm the kind of person who prefers to add flowers to brocade. If you're looking for help in times of need, you should probably look for someone else."
Yu Youguan: "But I'm different. I will have the entire Yu family in the future. And I'm not so traditional."
"If you're my friend, I'll help you with anything you need in the future," she tried to persuade Yanlan with her emotions.
Yan Shi: "The entire Yu family? Do you have the authority to decide?"
It's not that she said anything, but given Yu Youguan's condition, could Yu Xue really entrust the Yu family to her with peace of mind?
It feels like if Yu Youguan really takes over, Yan Shi can already see the Yu family's rapid decline within just a few years.
Yu Youguan said matter-of-factly, "I have the right to decide. There are no cousins in my family who can compete with me for the right of inheritance. I am the first and only heir. The entire Yu family will be mine in the future."
Does the Yu family only have Yu Youguan as an heir?
Doesn't that mean that no matter what mistakes someone makes, Yu Xuewen will still spoil them?
Yan Shi seemed to be deep in thought, then revealed a carefree smile, "I'm having second thoughts now. Fine, but just burning this place down would be too boring."
Yu Youguan's eyes lit up: "I knew you were different from them! Burning this place down is too boring, so tell me, what else should we do?"
"Do you know the person in charge of this banquet?" Yan Shi took out the guest list that Yu Xue had given her from her spatial bracelet again.
The layer of ice covering the halberd melted completely.
Yu Youguan: "Who else could it be? Only a few families like to hold such boring banquets. Although the old lady didn't tell me, if all the major families from the East and West human territories are invited, then the one hosting this banquet can only be the family on the border."
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the Jiangling City Lord's Mansion."
Yan Shi nodded with a serious expression.
Sure enough, she didn't recognize him.
Of the twelve main cities in the Eastern Human Race territory, she only knew Baiyujing, which belonged to Shu Zhijing; Jiucheng, which belonged to Lu Jian; and Lingkongcheng, which she had previously destroyed.
Yan Shi glanced at the guest list and found that the guests were arranged neatly according to the territories of the major families, covering major cities.
But there was no Wells Hub, and predictably, no Wine City either.
Duan Yunchen and Lu Jian, like her, were ostracized!
The Jiangling City Lord's Mansion was in charge, and Jiangling was indeed not on the guest list.
Yan Shi rummaged through her spatial bracelet for a while and found the pile of contraband she had taken from the Will Hub in the corner.
She only gave away a portion of the contraband when she made the deal with Liuguang, and the rest has been lying in her spatial bracelet ever since.
Because they were contraband items seized by the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, each item had a small explanatory sheet next to it. She remembered that one set of contraband items was particularly interesting.
Heart-shaped fireworks
A set of 20 can be silently applied to the palm of the hand without being noticed. Upon activation, it instantly extracts and detonates the spirit stored within the person's body. Continuous detonations will link together and ignite, launching a series of heart-shaped fireworks into the air after burning completely.
It is highly harmful and extremely insulting.
He even suggested that the young man wanted to burn down the entire banquet hall.
The fireworks label says "silent and unnoticed," but Yan Shi estimates that for some of the bigwigs at the scene, "silent and unnoticed" is misinterpreted as "blatant and outrageous."
But for the younger generation, it would be completely silent.
In the future described by Lin Cai, every single one of the major families in the inner world participated in the invasion of the outer world.
Yan Shi could understand large families. She studied archaeology in college, and from the countless historical books and studies she had read, she had come to understand that where there are systems and management, there must be a ruling class. And where there is a ruling class, there must be oppression and exploitation.
Even if the ruling class was originally the exploited party.
Self-interest and the pursuit of profit are inherent in all living beings.
A sound rule of law needs to be upheld. Unless those who uphold it are truly embodiments of the law, they will inevitably develop selfish motives in the end.
If this powerful family is eliminated, the next powerful family will eventually end up in the same situation.
Yan Shi may not understand management, but he does understand checks and balances. The current situation is that these powerful families in the underworld are too closely intertwined, given their similar strength and shared interests.
It's amazing that a main city can produce a unified representative, and not a separate bureau.
I wonder if the main city will still be so united after tonight.
Yan Shi thought casually.
She weighed the fireworks in her hand, while Yu Youguan looked at what Yan Shi had taken out with great curiosity.
"What is this?" Yu Youguan asked with interest.
Yan Shi: "Contraband."
Yu Youguan: !
"You're amazing! You actually managed to get your hands on contraband!" she exclaimed sincerely. "I tried to get some from the black market before, but the old lady found out and locked me up for a week."
Yan Shi gave her a handful of fireworks, put the rest in his own pocket, and then opened the guest list again for Yu You to see.
"This firework will spontaneously combust when you stick it to your palm, then launch a heart shape," Yan Shi explained simply. "Just burning it is too boring. Do you know any of the families on the list?"
Yu Youguan: "They are all basically familiar faces."
From a young age, she was involved in family affairs and various banquets with Yu Xuewen.
“You can choose which ones to post.” Yan Shi’s finger slid across the list. “For example, in Xiangping, if the Chen family and the Zhao family come, you can post for only one family.”
"For example, Soho Heights, Leonard and Nelson."
Yu Youguan's eyes sparkled as she took the initiative to speak, "I understand. These two families have a very close relationship because of marriage. But it doesn't matter. I'll pick one to be friendly and then pick the other to provoke."
Yan Shi: ?
She looked at Yu Youguan with some confusion. What did she mean by picking one to provoke?
But it's not a big problem; the results should be about the same.
Yan Shi handed the guest list to Yu Youguan, saying, "Just follow the list."
"Where are you going?" Yu Youguan asked curiously as he finished packing up all his things and watched Yan Shi tie up the wide sleeves and the silk at the bottom of his robe.
"Me?" Yan Shi deftly gathered his cumbersome clothes, raising an eyebrow. "I'm going to pick a few old geezers and have a fight with them."
Yu Youguan cheered, "You're so cool! If I had that kind of strength, I'd like to randomly pick on that old guy and have a fight too."
Yan Shi: "I hope I can see celebratory fireworks after I finish fighting."
Yu Youguan placed his right hand on his chest and bowed slightly: "I will certainly not disappoint your expectations!"
She took out the list again, confirmed the target individuals, and excitedly walked towards the venue. As she passed Yu Xuewen, she politely nodded.
Yu Xue asked: ?
She turned to look at Yanlan and saw that he had fastened his dress and was gripping the necromantic halberd tightly.
The black halberd reflected a chilling aura under the light.
Yu Xue asked, "Ms. Yanlan?"
“Master Yu,” Yan Shi said casually, “I thought you knew why I’m here.”
Although Yan Shi herself didn't know, she was simply framed by Ji Pucun's Xiaolou.
But she believed in Yu Xuewen's ability to fill in the blanks.
As expected, Yu Xuewen's expression turned serious, and she sighed softly, "Ms. Yanlan, things didn't have to come to this. The various branches of the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs are still in operation, and we continue to abide by the peaceful protection regulations set by the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs."
Yan Shi: "Only follow the peace protection regulations that are in your favor?"
When Yu Xuewen noticed that Yan Lan's sullen face was almost exactly the same as Director Yan's, she realized that he was the same person.
They really are sisters.
She stepped aside: "In the inner world, everything is decided by strength. The prophet belongs to the victor."
"I wish Ms. Yanlan all the best," Yu Xuewen said, her expression returning to calm.
If she knew what Yu Youguan was doing now, she certainly wouldn't be so calm.
Yan Shi thought with great interest and decided that he must see Yu Xuewen's expression when the fireworks went off.
It's sure to be amazing.
Yan Shi walked past Yu Xuewen, glanced at the banquet hall, raised his hand, and in an instant, a monstrous wave of water surged and swept directly towards the woman in the center of the crowd inside the banquet hall.
Several streams of energy rushed toward the giant wave, only to be submerged.
The banquet hall fell silent, as the giant waves were rolled up and covered by layers of greenery.
The woman in the center of the crowd looked sharply at Yan Shi: "Who are you?"
Yan Shi whistled, "What a lively banquet! Why didn't they invite my sister and me?"
The halberd twirled deftly between her fingertips.
"Entering the spatial gap requires specific coordinate guidance and an invitation letter. How did you get in?" Dong Tong asked in a deep voice.
“Of course I can come whenever I want.” Yan Shi raised the Undead Halberd, its tip pointing at Dong Tong. “Lord of Jiangling City? Come on, let’s have a fight.”
"I'm too lazy to listen to your roundabout talk. Either I take action, or I'll be beaten up." Her tone was indifferent.
The crowd dispersed, and Dong Tong walked straight out: "Perfect timing, I also want to see what kind of strength the famous Director Yan's sister possesses."
He possesses innate talent for recognizing people, adding embellishments, and witty banter, along with the world's best cleanup skills.
