【Chapter 119】Meet Ye Mingze
Seeing Ye Yishen nod, the waiter happily put away the spirit stones on the table.
While the waiter was collecting the spirit stones, Nangong Chenyu quickly erased part of the conversation between them and the waiter.
After all, the waiter is just an ordinary person, and verbal promises mean nothing. If the waiter's hasty words ruined their business, they would regret it later.
Therefore, it is best to nip any accident in the bud.
By the time the waiter left, Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen were no longer in the mood to eat.
"First, let's take a look at what Ye Mingze's children look like." As he spoke, Ye Yisheng had already unfolded the portrait in his hand.
The woman in the portrait was wearing a yellow long skirt with an exquisite butterfly pattern printed on it, and a white gauze dress on the outside. She had an oval face, curved eyebrows, and sad eyes. She looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old.
The words "Ye Zixuan" were also written next to the woman.
This Ye Zixuan is obviously Ye Mingze's daughter. Although her appearance is not stunning, she is still prettier than most female cultivators. But they don’t look like Ye Mingze and Ye Mingrui’s family at all.
Nangong Chenyu also unfolded the portrait in his hand.
The man in the portrait was wearing a royal blue robe with wide sleeves and a golden spider-patterned belt of the same color tied around his waist, on which hung two jade pendants of different styles. His black hair was tied up and fixed with a gilded crown inlaid with green.
Judging from the way he is dressed, he looks like a young master from a family of cultivators. Unfortunately, no matter how nicely he dresses, it can't change the fact that he is ugly.
After reading it, Nangong Chenyu handed the portrait to Ye Yisheng: "Ayi, look, Ye Mingze's son Ye Xuan looks 50% similar to Ye Yongtao."
After taking the portrait, Ye Yishen also handed Ye Zixuan's portrait to Nangong Chenyu.
At first glance, Ye Yisheng thought the person in the portrait was Ye Yongtao. If you look closely, you can see that the person in the painting is fairer than Ye Yongtao and a little thinner than Ye Yongtao.
If Ye Mingze's son was not a cultivator, he should look 80% similar to Ye Yongtao.
This is the difference between monks and mortals.
"As expected, they are father and son. They look 60% similar." Ye Yishen couldn't help but sigh.
Nangong Chenyu said, "Ye Mingze's daughter Ye Zixuan doesn't look like them at all."
Ye Yishen touched his face subconsciously. He looks neither like his father nor his mother.
"Maybe Ye Zixuan looks like her mother."
“Maybe!”
Knowing what Ye Mingze's children looked like, the portraits were no longer useful, so Ye Yishen used fire magic to directly burn the two portraits.
"Should we go directly to the Ye family next, or should we inquire about the situation of the Ye family?"
"Although we have the support of Yunjue Palace, it is not wise to rush in. Let's first find a member of the Ye family to search their soul and see the specific situation of the Ye family before making a decision." Nangong Chenyu asked, "What do you think?"
The reason is that their current cultivation is too low. If they have reached the Nascent Soul stage, they will come directly to our door. As for the unlucky guy whose soul he searches, if he is not a bad person, he will give him some compensation.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Having been hated by his fake grandmother since childhood, Ye Yishen had a glimmer of expectation for the grandparents whom he had never met. He naturally hoped that his grandparents would avenge them after knowing what had happened to his family.
Seeing what Ye Yishen was thinking, Nangong Chenyu was afraid that he would be disappointed. I decided to write a book tonight about the stories of the real and fake young masters that I had seen and show it to him.
Let him be mentally prepared so that he won’t get hurt when he encounters a bad grandparent.
After paying the bill, the two left Qingfeng Restaurant.
While there was still time, the two decided to go outside Ye Mansion to scout the area first.
When passing by Fuyun Trading Company, Nangong Chenyu pulled Ye Yisheng in.
Seeing the two of them, one of the waiters at the third level of Qi Refining immediately stepped forward and called out, "What would you two seniors like to buy?"
"Just take a look."
"Please go ahead, seniors." The waiter made way.
Nangong Chenyu pulled Ye Yishen upstairs.
"Ayu, what do you want to buy?" Ye Yishen was a little curious.
“You’ll know in a moment.” Nangong Chenyu kept it a secret.
When they reached the second floor, Nangong Chenyu took Ye Yisheng and walked straight to the display case where the masks were placed.
Now, without Nangong Chenyu’s explanation, Ye Yisheng knew the purpose of Nangong Chenyu bringing him to Fuyun Trading Company.
Glancing at the seven or eight masks in the display case, Ye Yisheng pointed at a silver mask that covered most of the face, leaving only the mouth exposed.
"Can you please take out this mask so we can have a look?"
"Please wait a moment, senior." The waiter took out a silver mask and handed it to Ye Yisheng, and introduced: "This mask can block the spiritual sense of cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage from spying on you."
"How many spirit stones?" asked Nangong Chenyu.
The waiter smiled and said, "Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine low-grade spirit stones."
Isn’t that just ten thousand low-grade spirit stones! Ye Yishen felt sorry for the spirit stone, so he handed the silver mask back to the waiter and looked at the other masks in the display case.
"How many spirit stones does the cheapest mask here cost?"
"One thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine low-grade spirit stones." The waiter took out an ugly mask that could cover the entire face: "That's it. But it can only block the spiritual sense of the cultivators in the foundation-building stage."
Ye Yishen placed the mask one centimeter away from his cheek and let Nangong Chenyu see it.
"How about it?"
Nangong Chenyu couldn't help but twitch his mouth. "Originally, no one would notice me, but if I wear this mask, I will attract attention."
Ye Yisheng: “…”
Nangong Chenyu pointed at the silver mask he had just taken out and said to the waiter, "We want this." He took out ten thousand low-grade spirit stones and took back another one.
The waiter immediately took out the silver mask and handed it to Nangong Chenyu, then quickly put the spirit stone away. The look on his face showed that he was obviously afraid that Nangong Chenyu would go back on his word.
When the two walked out of Fuyun Commercial Building, Ye Yisheng was already wearing a silver mask.
Following the route they had inquired about, the two men crossed two busy streets and saw a magnificent mansion across the river from afar.
Under the sunlight, one can vaguely see that the mansion is shrouded by a layer of transparent formation barrier.
Two guards in dark blue clothes stood at the door of the mansion, and occasionally one or two or more people would come in and out.
It would be difficult to search the soul of a member of the Ye family during the day, so the two decided to take action at night. So the two of them found an inn by the river to stay temporarily, and the room they chose had a window from which they could see the gate of the Ye Mansion.
Night is falling.
The quietly flowing river water radiates a faint silver glow under the moonlight. The lights along the river are reflected in the water like a shining pearl necklace, adding a different charm to the quiet night.
When there were fewer people on the street, Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen stood by the window and looked at the Ye Mansion on the other side of the river.
After a while, the two finally saw a member of the Ye family in the Foundation Establishment Stage coming out of the Ye Mansion. Nangong Chenyu asked Ye Yisheng to wait in the room, and he left the room alone.
But as soon as he walked out of the inn, he bumped into someone at the door.
They bumped into each other because they were both walking in a hurry. Under normal circumstances, the two would definitely not bump into each other.
At the moment of collision, Nangong Chenyu felt his sea of consciousness vibrate.
"How do you walk? Don't you have eyes?"
A cold voice brought Nangong Chenyu back to his senses, and he looked up at the person who spoke. The moment he saw the other person's face hidden under the black cloak, he felt that "monkey dung" was simply amazing.
The person he bumped into was Ye Mingze.
Waving his hand in front of Ye Mingze, Nangong Chenyu said angrily: "So you are blind!"
Seeing the other party's face darken, Nangong Chenyu spread his hands and said, "You are in the Jindan stage, and I am in the foundation building stage. Even if I want to avoid you, I can't!"
"you--"
Seeing Ye Mingze raised his hand, Nangong Chenyu quickly took two steps back, pretending to be scared, and said at the same time: "A gentleman should use words instead of fists. This is a public place, and you are not allowed to use spiritual energy at will."
Ye Mingze pointed at Nangong Chenyu with a sinister look in his eyes: "You are very good, give me——"
“Waiting, huh?” Nangong Chenyu said with a tsk, “Everyone can make harsh remarks.”
Nangong Chenyu immediately said a classic quote from a book when the hero is broken off by the supporting female character, or when he is bullied by someone with higher power and status than himself.
"Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west. Don't despise the young because they are poor."
After saying this, Nangong Chenyu heard the sound of Ye Mingze's fists clenching. If the place wasn't wrong, he was sure Ye Mingze would have attacked him long ago.
With a heavy "snort", Ye Mingze left without saying a word.
Due to this delay, the target person that Nangong Chenyu had originally favored had already gone far away.
He could only turn around and go back to the inn.
The room was pitch black. Ye Yishen had been looking out the window. He did not see Nangong Chenyu go to intercept the Ye family member coming out of the Ye Mansion.
Seeing Nangong Chenyu coming back, he lit the candle: "What happened?"
"I bumped into someone at the door of the inn."
"Who is it?" After asking this question, Ye Yisheng saw Nangong Chenyu's face was strange, and couldn't help but ask: "Did the other party blackmail you for spiritual stones?"
Nangong Chenyu almost spit out his tea after taking a sip.
"I bumped into the person we were looking for."
"Ye Mingze?"
Nangong Chenyu nodded.
Ye Yisheng asked again: "What is his cultivation level?"
"Early stage of Jindan."
Based on the cultivation levels of the cultivators he had seen, Ye Yisheng concluded, "He is already at the early stage of the Golden Core when he is in his thirties or forties. Even if Ye Mingze's aptitude is not outstanding, it is not bad either."
Nangong Chenyu said: "The son of the patriarch is the young master, and the family's cultivation resources will be tilted towards him unconditionally."
Ye Yishen glanced at Nangong Chenyu with resentment, these words were really heartbreaking.
A fake who not only dug out his father's spiritual roots, but also occupied his father's identity and enjoyed everything that should have belonged to his father.
Suddenly, Nangong Chenyu stood up and said, "I suddenly realized something. I will postpone the plan for now."
After saying this, he sat cross-legged to the side, looking like he was practicing cultivation, but in fact his consciousness had already entered the sea of consciousness.
When he bumped into Ye Mingze before, he felt the vibration in his sea of consciousness, which should be the scripture being activated.
