Upon hearing Sun Qingyu's voice, Ye Liang understood everything.
Ye Liang wouldn't take a clown seriously.
He bluntly told him, "I was just playing a trick on my apprentices. They're still young, so I did a magic trick to make them happy."
Ye Liang readily admitted that it was a magic trick, which made Sun Qingyu feel as frustrated as if he had thrown a punch but lost his target and hit the air.
Ye Liang's straightforward admission and confession left no room for him to enjoy the sense of accomplishment of exposing Ye Liang's little tricks and deception!
"Young Master, you're not just fooling a few children! We all saw it just now, that junior sister you were fooling was also overjoyed! Young Master, you're really good at making girls happy!"
That last sentence was truly scathing!
The lackeys, true to their loyalty, knew that their young master had just arrived and was unaware of the situation, so they took the initiative to explain that there were other details involved.
"Is there anything wrong with me trying to make my junior sister happy? Do I need to ask for your permission?" Ye Liang asked with a playful smile, the sword-shaped magic weapon beside him emitting a sharp, cold light.
What does it mean to command respect without anger?
That's it.
The cold glint startled the group, causing them to shrink back. Faced with Ye Liang's imposing aura, their previous aggressive demeanor vanished completely.
They were like mice before a cat, immediately subdued. They didn't dare to resist.
As for strength, since they were not as strong as Ye Liang, they naturally couldn't be stubborn in front of him.
"You'd better watch yourselves." Ye Liang smiled and left.
If you ignore these clowns and don't give them a stage to perform, they'll lose their stage and won't have the chance to put on a show, revealing their ugly side and making people feel disgusted.
Moreover, the final message, "Take care of yourself," was clearly a warning.
Ignoring warnings will obviously have serious consequences.
"Young Master Sun, if there's nothing else, I'd like to go back to my room to rest." Meng Xiaoru understood the awkwardness at the moment; it was because Sun Qingyu had failed to make a fool of Ye Liang and was feeling disappointed. She didn't want to stay with Sun Qingyu any longer, so as soon as Ye Liang left, she took her leave as well.
"Young Master, this guy is ruthless. He used magic tricks to win a girl's heart, and then he just admitted it without hesitation. He's a heartless person!" As soon as Ye Liang and Meng Xiaoru left, several of his followers came over to Sun Qingyu, somewhat alarmed, to tell him about the incident.
Sun Qingyu immediately waved his hand, signaling them to stop talking, and said, "Don't boost others' morale and dampen our own. Just now, although we didn't achieve a great victory, we forced him to expose his weaknesses and made him lose face to some extent. So we still gained something."
"Yes, yes, that's right! If he hadn't admitted to magic tricks, his situation would have been much more passive. I think he was cornered by the young master's questioning and knew he would be exposed by the wise and insightful young master, so he had no choice but to resort to this tactic and simply admit it! At least this way, he could save some face." After hearing their young master's words, the subordinates felt enlightened and extremely relieved.
"It's good that he admitted it quickly, otherwise, the young master would have found fault with him!"
"Young Master is so valiant!"
The other two also echoed this sentiment with great satisfaction.
These flattering words made Sun Qingyu, the young master of the Eternal Sect, feel elated and happy!
It's a rare treat to defeat Ye Liang, so I'm naturally happy!
As the young master of the Eternal Sect, Sun Qingyu's proud status had long since made him proud to the core. Naturally, he was so arrogant that he didn't even realize that this kind of flattery was flattery, and he could accept it calmly.
Of course, the young master of the Eternal Sect was indeed a man of great prestige. If he hadn't met Ye Liang, very few people would have dared to disrespect him.
Unfortunately, he happened to run into Ye Liang, who would definitely not give him face; this was probably his destined fate.
When Meng Xiaoru returned to the inn, she did not actually go back to her room to rest as she had said. Instead, she went upstairs to visit Ye Liang and his senior sisters.
It seems she intentionally wanted to comfort Ye Liang, who had just been feeling down.
It seemed she also felt that Ye Liang had been put in an awkward position by Sun Qingyu. As a young woman, she had a lot of sympathy for him and couldn't help but want to talk to Ye Liang and comfort him.
She really is a very feminine girl, kind-hearted and gentle.
When she arrived at her senior sister's room, she found all the senior sisters happily gathered together talking. When they saw her, the junior sister was especially happy and pulled her over to see what Ye Liang had caught while fishing in the backyard. It turned out that Ye Liang had caught a so-called magical scroll for her.
After listening carefully to her junior sister's rambling, Meng Xiaoru finally understood that this was Ye Liang's so-called magic trick.
They fished out the so-called magical scroll from the water tank in the backyard.
Could it be that Junior Sister can't tell that this is a magic trick?
How could you possibly fish out such a scroll from a water tank?
It was clearly Ye Liang who was just looking for an excuse to give his junior sister a gift.
Ye Liang's ingenuity is truly remarkable!
Meng Xiaoru then kindly reminded her junior sister on Ye Liang's behalf, "Junior sister, can't you see? Young Master Ye is just performing a magic trick to give you a gift."
"I know," the junior sister said happily, oblivious to Meng Xiaoru's implied meaning. "Ye Liang has given me so many things; he's never stingy. What, you mean magic tricks?"
"Mmm." Meng Xiaoru looked at her junior sister with slight worry, afraid that she wouldn't be able to accept the truth.
