Ye Wuque, who was sitting upright, seemed to have simply heard the sudden cold snort and was not affected at all.
But Bai Yi on the other side immediately let out a muffled groan and stood up unsteadily!
Clearly, Bai Yi was in a very bad mood at this moment.
At the same time, Ye Wuque had already stood up.
Looking out from the pavilion, three figures were striding towards them!
The leader was tall and wore a black mask, exuding an unfathomable aura!
The only person who could move freely in this luxurious first-tier area and utter such words could only be... Elder You!
Elder You strode into the pavilion.
"Greetings, Elder You!"
Ye Wuque immediately clasped his hands in a salute and spoke respectfully, but his tone also carried a hint of composure.
"Bai Yi, under Elder Xiao's command... pays respects to Elder You!"
Bai Yi spoke respectfully, his voice slightly hoarse, his posture full of deep reverence, without a trace of anger, resentment, or negative emotions.
Elder You didn't immediately look at Bai Yi. Instead, he walked to Bai Yi's original spot, sat down, and looked at Ye Wuque, saying, "Well done!"
Elder You's tone was filled with undisguised admiration.
"Sit down and talk to me."
Elder You spoke again.
"Yes, sir!"
Without any hesitation, Ye Wuque immediately sat back down in his seat, facing Elder You.
Standing on either side of the pavilion, Elder You's two trusted beast guardians sighed in unison upon seeing Elder You's attitude and tone.
They had been following Elder You for quite some time and had naturally figured out his personality and style.
Elder You was extremely satisfied with Xuan Yi's sudden rise to prominence!
The appearance of Bai Yi clearly enraged Elder You!
And he had just returned and had just run into them!
What does this mean?
My green apple, which I hadn't eaten before, has suddenly grown big, crisp, red, and sweet. Now someone is trying to sneak away and take it!
How can I tolerate this?!
Elder You simply picked up the wine pot on the table and poured it into the empty cup in front of Ye Wuque.
The dark-faced elder personally poured the wine!
No words were needed; with just this one gesture, anyone with discerning eyes could immediately see how much Elder You valued Ye Wuque.
"Thank you, Elder!"
Ye Wuque immediately stood up slightly and bowed slightly, raising his cup with his right hand and supporting it with his left, maintaining a respectful posture.
As for interpersonal relationships, Brother Ye has been in the business for so many years, he can handle it perfectly if he wants to.
really!
Seeing that Ye Wuque remained so respectful, a satisfied smile flashed in Elder You's eyes beneath his mask.
very good.
This Xuan Yi is not floating!
It is still possible to maintain absolute awe.
Calm, intelligent, and now his abilities have improved by leaps and bounds!
This made Elder You even happier!
"Sit down with me, there's no need to be so polite."
"Because you were always mine."
After filling Ye Wuque's cup, Elder You's tone was no longer cold, but rather warm.
Ye Wuque raised the cup with both hands before sitting down again.
"Come on, have a drink."
"This cup is a toast to you, congratulations on becoming a Guardian of the First Beast Sequence, ranking at the peak of the Xuanhu Sequence!"
After pouring himself a glass, Elder You raised his glass.
Ye Wuque immediately raised his cup as well, and the two cups gently touched.
"Thank you for your kind words, Elder!"
At that moment, both of them drank it all in one gulp.
The wine was prepared by Bai Yi.
The dishes were prepared by Bai Yi.
Ye Wuque was also invited by Bai Yi.
As a result, Elder You is now treating Ye Wuque with the wine and dishes provided by Bai Yi.
This domineering and forceful nature is beyond question!
Elder You asserted his sovereignty.
But Bai Yi, standing to the side, didn't dare utter a single word of dissent.
He stood there respectfully, motionless, showing no resentment at being stood up by a minotaur in front of him.
Finally, Elder You put down his empty wine cup.
The eyes beneath the mask also turned to Bai Yi beside him, their gaze turning cold once more.
"You don't know that Xuan Yi is one of my men?"
Elder You spoke, his tone cold.
A terrifying pressure emanated from the pavilion, enveloping it entirely!
Even Bai Yi, who was ranked first among the top ten, couldn't help but tremble.
"Yes, Elder You!" Bai Yi took a deep breath and gave a respectful reply.
After all, the fact that Zhu Yi had brought back a fifth-level potential talent with Ye Wuque and the others had caused quite a stir. In addition, Elder You's daughter was willing to spend a fortune to buy a promising talent, so the news naturally spread.
"Then what are you doing?" Elder You asked coldly again.
In this situation, even a regular first-order beast guardian would probably tremble in fear!
However, Bai Yi forced himself to stand up straight, and spoke with a tone that was still respectful but firm!
"Elder Xiao said that Elder You, you are merely... spending a fortune to buy a horse's bones!"
"Brother Xuanyi never truly became your subordinate; otherwise, you would have left your mark in Beast God City!"
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the pavilion suddenly became deathly silent and still!
"How dare you!"
Immediately, one of Elder You's trusted Beast Guardians stepped forward and shouted loudly!
Bai Yi didn't even glance at this beast guardian in the sequence; he only maintained absolute awe and respect in front of Elder You.
"oh?"
"So, you're still going to use Third Brother Xiao to intimidate this elder?"
Elder You didn't seem angry at all; instead, he spoke with great interest.
"Bai Yi wouldn't dare!"
"I am merely relaying Elder Xiao's will as it is," Bai Yi said respectfully again.
Elder You did not immediately reply, but seemed to be sizing up Bai Yi, and after a few breaths, he smiled slightly.
"You really are a talented person!"
"Third Brother Xiao really struck gold, managing to bring you under his command."
"Bai Yi, the first of the ten sequences, is indeed renowned among the Beast Guardians."
"This elder admires you!"
"so……"
"This time, I'll spare you."
"Leave the food and wine behind, and you may leave."
After Elder You finished speaking casually, he stopped looking at Bai Yi.
Bai Yi didn't hesitate at all, nor was he displeased. Instead, he clasped his hands and bowed deeply once again.
"Thank you, Elder You!"
"Bai Yi takes his leave."
Bai Yi immediately turned and left without any hesitation.
Inside the pavilion, Elder You, who was looking at Ye Wuque, smiled again.
Ye Wuque, on the other hand, took the initiative to pick up the wine pot and pour wine for Elder You.
But Elder You grabbed the wine pot first and still wanted to pour wine for Ye Wuque.
After filling the cup to the brim, Elder You raised it again.
"Xuanyi, you've given me such a wonderful surprise!"
“I admit that I underestimated you and didn’t take you seriously before. I want to apologize to you personally for that.”
"This second glass is for you!"
Consider it an apology!
