Yao Qian was a thin-skinned person, and felt a little embarrassed after hearing what he said, but he could not deny that Young Master Cheng was wrong.
Twenty years ago, their Yao family was considered a wealthy family. When Feng Yuxuan's mother was pregnant, they were engaged to each other. He had liked Feng Yuxuan since he was a child and loved her as his future daughter-in-law.
No matter what treasure it was, as long as Feng Yuxuan said a word, he would find ways to get it, just to win Feng Yuxuan's smile.
But who would have thought that three years ago, the head of the Yao family passed away. The strength of a cultivation family is the key to success. Without the pillar of the Yao family, the family naturally began to go downhill. In addition, in recent years, the Yao family has not produced any promising descendants, so it gradually declined.
He knew that Feng Yuxuan's attitude towards him had changed, but Feng Yuxuan was a genius in refining weapons after all, and it was indeed unfair for him to marry him. He had thought about canceling the engagement, but Feng Yuxuan kept saying that he wanted to overcome the difficulties with him.
Thinking back to when he heard these words, he could be described as overjoyed, but who knew that these words were just an excuse to calm himself down.
A year ago, Feng Yuxuan said that he already had someone he liked and wanted to get engaged. Yao Qian was of course reluctant to let him go and tried almost every possible way to persuade him to stay. He finally calmed him down, but he didn't expect that was just the beginning.
Since that day, no matter how many gifts he gave or what promises he made, Feng Yuxuan would propose to cancel the engagement every now and then. The most serious time was even when she insulted him, saying that he was a leper who wanted to eat swan meat and that he was useless and wasting her time.
Although Yao Qian liked Feng Yuxuan, he was also a man with dignity. Finally, during a quarrel half a year ago, the two tore up the engagement letter.
Originally, he hadn't planned to come today, but after all - the two families still had to socialize.
When Feng Yuxuan's true intention of holding him back three years ago was mercilessly pointed out, grief flashed in Yao Qian's eyes.
In fact, he knew everything, but he just liked Feng Yuxuan.
Yao Qian took a deep breath, swallowed the bitterness in his throat, and asked, "Master Cheng, why...?"
Cheng Ye shrugged, turned his head and looked at Qi Yu from a distance: "I have a big grudge against him, so I also can't stand his boyfriend."
Although no one knows what the word "boyfriend" means, we can roughly guess it.
This time, Yao Qian's neck was almost red.
Everyone was talking about it, and they knew that Young Master Cheng had a clear purpose and had no hostility towards them, so they all watched the fun.
"Master Cheng, if you come here to mess things up..."
Qi Yu held down Feng Yuxuan's hand as he stepped forward, and said politely, "I don't know how I offended Young Master Cheng. I hope you can give me some advice so I can apologize."
Cheng Ye sneered, pretending not to hear the change in his address: "Qi Yu, do you still remember the promise you made in the valley behind the Feng family half a year ago?"
Qi Yu's face changed drastically, his pupils shrank suddenly, he looked at Cheng Ye in disbelief, then turned to look at Feng Yuxuan beside him.
The color drained from Feng Yuxuan's face. He clutched Qi Yu's clothes tightly and opened his mouth to say something, but Cheng Ye didn't give him a chance to open his mouth.
"Qi Yu, you insulted me first. I knew you were deeply poisoned and didn't hold it against you. It was you who repeatedly offered compensation. How could I, Cheng Ye, want your things? I gave you a chance because of your sincerity. But you are so good." Cheng Ye sneered, "You say one thing to my face and another behind my back. So this is what the young master of the Qi family is like."
Everyone was in an uproar. Although they didn't know what they were talking about, it seemed like they had heard an incredible secret.
Qi Yu slowly took a step forward: "You, it's impossible, I..."
Cheng Ye pulled out another dark green jade pendant from his bosom and held it high. "So your Qi family's inheritance token is just this low, and it's gotten to the point where everyone has one?!" He rolled his eyes. "I, Cheng Ye, can't demand an apology from your Qi family. Since this token is worthless, it's understandable that it's broken!"
"Don't--" Without waiting for Qi Yu to speak, Cheng Ye suddenly swung the black jade hard, and it fell to the ground with a bang. The finest black jade naturally could not be broken by human power.
Qi Yu rushed forward in a panic, but before he could pick it up, Cheng Ye cast a spell and the black jade suddenly shattered into pieces. Qi Yu's mind seemed to shatter as well. He stared blankly at the broken pieces on the ground, trying to pick them up with trembling hands.
Cheng Ye sneered, indifferent to his distraught look. He formed his five fingers into claws and pulled hard, and Qi Yu's sleeves suddenly moved without wind. Seeing a shadow passing by in front of him, Feng Yuxuan subconsciously reached out to grab it, but the thing was like a living thing, avoiding his hand and flying straight towards Cheng Ye.
Cheng Ye shook hands, holding the item firmly in his hand, and gestured to Yao Qian to see it. It was also a jade pendant, carved into the shape of a leaf. The veins in the leaf were lifelike, and the whole jade pendant seemed to be a real leaf just picked from the tree. "This is what I lost the other day. Look, there's a Cheng here. See? I didn't take advantage of Master Qi. If you lose a treasure in the future, don't blame me. It's better to investigate the people around you!"
Cheng Ye wiped the surface with his thumb, and Yao Qian moved closer. He saw the young master's fingertips flickering the surface, and the word "Cheng" was indeed flashing with a soft white halo where his fingers passed. Before he could take a closer look, the young master Cheng threw it forward and caught it steadily. However, the moment his palm clenched, the young master Cheng frowned slightly, put the jade pendant in his hand back in front of his eyes and took a look. His expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Cheng Shaoli blankly.
Cheng Shaoli was stunned and realized that the problem was serious. He pushed Qi Yu away and stood in front of Cheng Ye: "What's wrong?" As he said that, he looked at Cheng Ye's hand.
Cheng Ye pouted: "The restriction above has been broken!"
Cheng Shaoli: “!”
The Cheng family's ancestors have accumulated blessings, and the Cheng family's bloodline is blessed by the ancestors. One or two chosen people will appear every few generations, and the chosen people are born with opportunities.
For example, Cheng Shaoli, for example, Cheng Ye.
The chosen one's Taoist partner can share the opportunity, but the opportunity is only recognized by one person and will not change even if the Taoist partner dies.
Cheng Ye, the usually fearless little bully, was completely panicked and grabbed Cheng Shaoli's sleeve like a lifeline: "Second Uncle."
Cheng Shaoli didn't know what to do, but he couldn't show any fear in front of Cheng Ye. He touched Cheng Ye's face and said, "It's okay. We've been out for a while. Your father will be worried. Let's go back first."
"Okay." Cheng Ye nodded gloomily, looked up at the child, and waved, "Come here."
Everyone then noticed that when the Cheng family came to give gifts, there were two people, but now a little boy appeared from nowhere, with two big watery eyes that were extremely cute.
"Isn't this that bastard? How come he is here?!" Feng Yuyan, who had been trying to reduce her presence since Feng Yuandao was attacked, suddenly shouted. The child shrank back and abruptly retracted the step he had taken.
Cheng Ye was already in a bad mood, and his expression changed slightly when he saw the child was frightened. He raised his hand and slapped Feng Yuyan in the air, knocking her to the ground. Feng Yuyan screamed in fear and was so scared that she didn't even dare to cry. She lay on the ground, covering her face and looking at Cheng Ye in embarrassment.
Cheng Ye took a few steps forward, took the child's hand, and prepared to leave after making a scene in front of everyone. Qi Yu's stiff body seemed to be suddenly liberated: "Cheng Ye!"
Cheng Ye paused as his raised foot was about to land outside the threshold. Just as Qi Yu's eyes lit up and he was about to chase after him, Cheng Ye pulled out a white ribbon from his waist with his backhand.
"Silk soft sword!" The people present who knew the goods screamed in surprise, interrupting Qi Yu's steps forward. A sword wind came towards him. Qi Yu spun with his luck, and the wind blade brushed past his earlobe. If Qi Yu's movements were just a little slower, his face would have been disfigured.
Feng Yuxuan, who followed closely, had a lock of his hair cut off and dropped to the ground. He shuddered and subconsciously reached for Qi Yu's hand: "Qi Yu, are you okay?"
Qi Yu flicked his sleeves to avoid his hand, his eyes fixed on Cheng Ye's back.
"Ha!" Cheng Ye sneered without even turning his head, "Master Qi, you and I are of the same generation, but Cheng Ye cannot be called your friend. Let's just address each other respectfully."
"I heard that the young master is very suitable." Cheng Shaoli held Cheng Ye's wrist and said with a cold face.
"From today on, I, Cheng Ye, and you, Qi Yu, will be irreconcilable!" After he said that, he squatted down and picked up the child. At the same time, Cheng Shaoli raised his hand, and a large black ship appeared out of thin air in the Feng family's yard. Because the ship was too big, the gate and wall of the Feng family were actually squeezed down. He sighed and said, "The place is really small." He pulled Cheng Ye's sleeve, and the three of them flew onto the ship.
Everyone only felt a flash before their eyes, and the big ship had already sped away, and not even a black dot could be seen. If it weren't for the ruins in front of them, they would have thought they were dazzled.
"Where's Cheng Ye? Where's your young master? Tell your young master to come out. No, I want to go in." The gatekeeper was almost suffocated by Qi Yu's murderous look and powerful pressure. He said tremblingly, "My young master is in seclusion."
"Retreat?" Qi Yu was stunned, then his face darkened. "Impossible, how could he go into retreat right after returning?" He stretched out his hand to push the servant away. "He definitely doesn't want to see me. I'll go find him myself."
"Young Master Qi, our young master is really in seclusion." A young man in green clothes walked in. He was obviously someone close to Cheng Ye. He waved his hand to signal the servant guarding the door to go aside.
No matter what others said, Qi Yu didn't believe it.
The young man had no choice but to bow and said with embarrassment, "Young Master, to be honest, my young master's cultivation has regressed since he came back half a year ago. He's not feeling well and should have been in seclusion to further his training, but he forced himself out the other day without any care. His body couldn't handle it, so he naturally went into seclusion to recuperate after returning."
Cheng Ye's cultivation level was originally a mystery. No one would come to pick a fight with him even if he had no cultivation level, let alone regression. So the young man was a little worried when he said it, but he felt it was okay after he finished speaking.
"Cultivation regressing? How is that possible?!" Qi Yu asked with a dark face.
From Cheng Ye's attack that day, one could tell that his cultivation was very advanced, but he had more energy than strength. Could it be that—
Thinking of what happened in the valley, Qi Yu's heart suddenly became anxious.
"Injured... When did you get injured? Is it serious? Can I go and take a look?"
"Master Qi, I..." The young man was reluctant to say more, perhaps because he didn't know in the first place. "Please don't embarrass me, okay? Young Master is in seclusion, how could he possibly meet with outsiders?"
"I..." Qi Yu originally wanted to say that he was not an outsider, but - yes, not an outsider, but an enemy.
"From now on, I, Cheng Ye, and you, Qi Yu, will be irreconcilable."
When Qi Yu thinks of Cheng Ye’s resolute eyes and cold tone that day, he still trembles all over.
No, it shouldn't be like this.
Qi Yu gripped the sword tightly in his hand, trying to give himself some confidence.
But this action is seen as a provocation by others.
The young man said with a stern face: "Master, our master is not seeing outsiders now, please go back first."
No, he couldn't leave. Even if he couldn't see Cheng Ye, he could still guard the gate for him. Qi Yu asked, "I won't disturb his retreat. He always comes back every time he comes out, right? I'll wait at his door. Where does he live?"
Young man: "...Master Qi, this is not appropriate."
Qi Yu narrowed his eyes: "Speak!"
The young man stepped back cautiously, raising his sword to defend himself. "Master Qi, please think twice before you act."
