Chi Yuan remained expressionless, his eyes lifeless, devoid of any emotion.
With a loud "boom," a shockwave erupted, blasting away all three women who were holding him.
Chi Yuan turned around, his gaze sweeping indifferently over Lu Ziling and the other two who had been thrown back two or three zhang, and said coldly, "I'll say it again, you've mistaken me for someone else. I'm not your senior brother. Don't bother me again!"
"Senior Brother..."
Lu Ziling and the other two were heartbroken. After three years apart, they had finally seen their beloved senior brother again, only to be met with such a heartbreaking scene.
Are they going to lose their senior brother completely?
"Second Senior Sister, what should we do now?"
Su Ningyan wept uncontrollably, looking helplessly at Lu Ziling.
Lu Ziling, however, seemed to have lost her soul, her face blank and dazed. The situation she feared most had finally come to pass...
“We caused our senior brother so much harm, making him lose his parents, brothers, and lover... He won’t forgive us easily…”
Ning Wan'er looked at Chi Yuan with a sad expression, her heart feeling as if it had been broken into pieces.
Senior Brother... he really hates them to the core!
"It's all my fault... If it weren't for me, how could Senior Brother have suffered so much misfortune?!"
Ning Wan'er curled up and cried bitterly, feeling as if she were being subjected to the torture of being slowly sliced to death, which caused her excruciating pain.
"Three senior sisters, don't be too sad. This person... may not really be our senior brother."
Ye Chen approached the three women and carefully offered them words of comfort.
However, the three women remained grief-stricken and none of them paid him any attention.
Ye Chen glanced at Chi Yuan and then offered a plausible analysis: "Senior sisters, have you forgotten? Senior Brother's cultivation has been crippled, but the aura that this person just unleashed clearly indicated that he had reached the Spirit King realm. If he were Senior Brother, how could he have such a high level of cultivation? Even if Senior Brother is exceptionally talented, it's impossible for him to have regained the Spirit King realm in just three years, right?"
Upon hearing this, the three women finally reacted, their somewhat vacant eyes looking at Ye Chen, gradually revealing a glimmer of light.
Yes, Senior Brother's cultivation has recovered!
Regardless of how the senior brother did it, this is fantastic news; Heaven has finally opened its eyes!
"Ningyan, Wan'er, don't be discouraged. Senior Brother is just having trouble getting over this. As long as we try our best to help him resolve this issue, he will definitely forgive us!"
Lu Ziling cheered herself up.
Su Ningyan wiped away her tears and nodded seriously, "Yes! Senior Brother has such a good relationship with us, he won't blame us forever. What we need to do now is to try our best to make amends, so that we can win back Senior Brother."
Ning Wan'er stared blankly at Chi Yuan's retreating figure, murmuring as if in a dream, "It's all Wan'er's fault. As long as Senior Brother forgives Wan'er, that's all that matters. Senior Brother dotes on Wan'er so much, he will definitely forgive Wan'er, he definitely will..."
"Young master, let's go inside."
Rong Xinya came to Chi Yuan's side and said softly.
She stole a glance at Chi Yuan's lifeless eyes, feeling a pang of unease. Just how much psychological trauma had Chi Yuan suffered to become so cold and numb...?
Wenren Bingying also walked to Chi Yuan's side, gazed intently at him, and said, "Young Master, Bingying will stay with you!"
At this moment, she clearly felt that there was an insurmountable wall in Chi Yuan's heart, keeping everyone out. But the more this was the case, the more she wanted to enter Chi Yuan's heart and gently soothe the wounds in this man's heart.
Wenren Bingying declared to herself, "He is not Chi Yuan, he will always be my Floating Wind Prince!"
Let's go.
Chi Yuan spoke calmly and walked towards the inner area.
The two women followed closely behind, staying by his side.
You Rong Hanyou and You Rong Lianxin exchanged a glance, seemingly lost in thought, and silently followed.
Lu Ziling and the other two girls did not go forward to ask Chi Yuan to acknowledge them. They composed themselves, kept a distance, and followed behind Chi Yuan with their heads bowed.
Once inside, the view opened up considerably.
To the left of the entrance, there is a jade auction platform, several feet square and about half a foot high. Opposite the auction platform is a fan-shaped seating area with seats at varying heights.
At this moment, many distinguished figures have already taken their seats in the seating area, and as more people enter, the number of empty seats gradually decreases.
Chi Yuan had a VIP invitation and his seat was in the front row. Rong Xinya pointed to a spot in the front row and led Chi Yuan there.
Wenren Bingying was secretly annoyed. Her seat was not next to Chi Yuan's and there was a distance between them. It was obvious that Rong Xinya had done this on purpose.
But she had no choice. After all, this was the Ye family's auction house, and she had no say here. She could only take her seat as arranged by Rong Xinya.
On the other side, Rong Xinya had already led Chi Yuan to the two seats on the right side of the first row.
"Please sit down, young master. Xin Ya will pour you some tea."
Rong Xinya gently invited him, and then came to the tea table between the two seats, intending to personally pour tea for Chi Yuan.
Chi Yuan was about to sit down when a loud voice suddenly rang out: "Wait! You can't sit here yet."
The speaker was a tall, robust young man with a rugged face. He stood up from a seat not far to the left and looked at Chi Yuan provocatively, saying, "If you want to sit in this seat, you'll have to show some ability."
This man is named Kui Meng, the young master of the Kui Lang Gang, the largest gang in Jingyang City, and also a staunch suitor of Rong Xinya.
He had disliked Chi Yuan since they were in the outer hall, and now he was deliberately picking a fight to test Chi Yuan's strength and see where he had lost.
"Kui Meng, what's wrong with you? If you want to act crazy, go outside. This isn't the place for you!"
Rong Xinya frowned and looked coldly at Kui Meng, scolding him.
"Miss Xinya, I can't give you face this time."
Kui Meng chuckled and said confidently, "Everyone who can sit in the front row is a big shot. This kid is nobody. What right does he have to sit in the front row? If he can't prove he's qualified, why should we sit with him? Wouldn't that be an insult to our status?"
"Why should I? Because he is a distinguished guest of the Ye family. Isn't that enough?"
Rong Xinya said coldly, "Kui Meng, don't go looking for trouble. You can't afford to offend Young Master Fufeng! If you don't know what's good for you, you're going against the Ye family!"
She wasn't using the Ye family's name to pressure Kui Meng out of personal motives, but because Chi Yuan could help with something very important to the Ye family. Therefore, she had to tie the Ye family to Chi Yuan. Otherwise, how could she ask Chi Yuan for help if she didn't even have this attitude?
“Young Master Fufeng is also a guest of honor of the Wenren family. Kui Meng, are you planning to offend the Wenren family as well?”
Another chilling warning rang out, and Wenren Bingying stood up, exerting an imposing pressure on Kui Meng.
