Lord Xue Ying's

Chapter 170 – A Familiar Back

In fact, he did not have much enmity towards You Yue.

Xue Ying's relationship with You Yue was so distant in the past that she, at most, would only shake her head and smile. Moreover, both of them belonged to two completely different worlds. Up until now, he had not even stepped into the Star realm. Therefore, its lifespan is relatively short. With such a short lifespan, he wouldn't even have much time left to make another breakthrough to the next world. Normally, the number of mages in each area breaking through to the Star realm could be counted with one hand. Likewise, You Yue innate talent was not that high to begin with.

Knowing how short his lifespan was and also knowing how old he was now would be thousands of years .. while also borrowing the World Energy to 'see' how loose the skin on his face actually was, he actually had the middle appearance of an old woman. How could he continue to bear his grudge against her? He could only sigh.

Xue Ying did not plan to interact with him.

He only intended to brush his shoulders with her today. The path they were walking on pointed in the opposite direction.

M N'S? Does the business seem a bit big? Xue Ying thought as he borrowed World Energy to investigate the fifty kilometer diameter area around him. He could not help but observe Kong You Yue closely. Naturally, he 'looked' and 'heard' what he and the others were talking about in the private room on the third floor. In fact, even though Xue Ying often observed millions of people, in reality, he could not do many tasks and listened to everyone's words! Being able to perform many tasks and keep an eye on millions of different events .. is something impossible! Even Demigods can't do that.

Rather than focusing on a particular individual, he usually only observed each person in a more general sense. Only when he detected the demonic aura would he notice it. Of course, he would notice every shocking scene as well.

Regarding murders, fights, scolding, collusion, and normal conversations between people, these were basically things that he would pay attention to but not pay special attention to, he said, unless it was someone he specifically wanted to observe.

……

Third floor .

Two Meteor Knight bodyguards escorted Lady You Yue to the third floor. Led by the old man, he took him through the corridor to arrive outside the private room. Two ordinary guards standing outside – they are just ordinary knights.

Zhi yes.

One of the guards pushed the door open.

"Haha, Madame You Yue, come in," said a thin and thin-looking man who was sitting on one side of the table inside the private room. He stood up and laughed when he saw You Yue enter the room.

"Baron Yin," said Lady You Yue. He smiled at the man as he passed the doorway into the room. The two Meteor Knight bodyguards naturally continued to escort him and followed him into the room.

Zhi yes, the door to the private room is closed.

There were a total of seven people in the room – Baron Yin, his three subordinates, Lady You Yue, and his two bodyguards.

"Mrs You Yue, please," said Baron Yin as she moved towards a chair with a brilliant smile etched on her face.

Only then did Lady You Yue sit down.

“Come and sample the rare fruit wine I brought from the provincial capital, called Seven Treasures Fruit Wine. They do not sell it publicly. Just because I know the great magicians from their Refiner workshop, I can get this incredible wine. Even after getting it, I still did not want to drink it. Today, I brought it for you, Miss You Yue, ” said Baron Yin, her face full of smiles as she hurriedly poured fruit wine into their glasses. The wine appeared similar to clear lake water and emitted an intoxicating aroma. Breathing it is a form of pleasure in and of itself.

"Come, let's have a drink," Baron Yin said as he raised his glass.

Lady You Yue smiled and raised her glass. He said, "Thank you Baron Yin," and touched the wine with his lips before putting the glass on the table.

"The reason why Baron Yin asked me today is not just for a drink, right?" Ask Lady You Yue.

“Haha, Lady You Yue is really direct. Let's do business, ” said Baron Yin. “Right now, I have asked to meet you because of an inn owned by the Kong Clan in the provincial capital. I want to buy it. Name your price, Madam You Yue. I'm sure I'll sincerely agree with whatever price you ask. ”

"You really let me state the price? Alright . Five million pieces of gold. Are you going to pay that much? ”Mrs You Yue smiled.

"Don't surprise anyone else" said Baron Yin. “I really made a sincere effort here. ”

"If you are truly sincere, then you should be the one to make the offer," Lady You Yue added. "If we can't agree on a price, I'll just walk away. Tonight, I still have to attend the banquet, so I can't stay here long. ”

"Three hundred thousand gold pieces!" Said Baron Yin while gritting his teeth. "How's that?"

"Are you dreaming?" Lady You Yue sneered.

Miss You Yue frowned, “Baron Yin, the two of us are not stupid! You and I are both aware of the current situation the world is facing right now. Since the rumored Abyss Demons had hidden themselves all over the world, we know for sure that the safest place was the provincial capital! All the nobles and wealthy merchants scrambled to find a way to buy property in the provincial capital. They each needed a residence in the provincial capital big enough to allow their entire clan to move into it! Currently, the prices of all the land and residences in the provincial capital were extremely high, and these prices were still rising! From what I heard, this conflict between demons and Transcendents might even last for over a thousand years. In the past, my Kong Clan bought the inn for a cheap price, but now, hmph, my inn now has an inner courtyard with dozens of pavilions, covering a large area! Its current value is even greater than ten times what I bought. You want to buy it for 300,000 pieces of gold? Do you treat me, Kong You Yue, as an idiot? ”

Baron Yin smiled awkwardly at him.

This is You Yue .. the source of the information is really good! The Transcendent of the Infernal World had just returned, and news of the battle between demons and Transcendents had only spread among the upper-class clans. However, he already knew the situation.

“I won't play with you either. Three million pieces of gold! One single price! ”Say Lady You Yue.

"The price is too high," Baron Yin hesitated.

“Today, I give you this price. But in the future, I will not guarantee that this price will remain the same, ” Lady You Yue said as she stood up. “If you have gold, we can proceed with our transaction. Lf it doesn't? Hmph. ”

You Yue sneered before she turned around and walked away.

The two Meteor Knight bodyguards opened the door for him, letting him walk. Behind him, Baron Yin's expression was extremely bad.

……

Lady You Yue felt very pleased with the circumstances that had occurred as she walked out of the room. Due to his past relationship with Xue Ying, all the famous characters from the Transcendent clan in the entire Quiet Sun Province treated You Yue with respect and did not dare to offend him! After all, there was nothing really clear about how close he was to Xue Ying. Therefore, not 'offending her feelings' meant not making mistakes in their treatment of her.

Taking advantage of this uncertainty, You Yue moved within the ranks of a top-class clan and started several businesses. Others might not dare to act the way he did, but he certainly had the courage to do so! It was because the Transcendent clan was unwilling to force trouble with the Kong Clan, so as long as the Kong Clan acted on reason, this clan would allow such behavior.

You Yue had far more influential power than her younger brother and sister, ensuring that she became the mother of the leader of the Kong Clan.

Because You Yue was so ambitious, she did not want to exist only within the small town of County. As a result, the Kong Clan family business had long since settled itself in the provincial capital. Naturally, he would buy some inns, houses, and courtyards in the provincial capital as well.

After years of hard work, the assets of the Kong Clan had reached over a million gold pieces.

But right now, the demons had invaded their world!

The invasion has greatly increased the price of land in the provincial capital! Even ten times the original price was not enough! What the Kong Clan bought all those years ago had made them a huge profit today! A large inn could even have a selling price that started from three million gold pieces.

It could be said that the demon invasion had caused all the rich barons and many nobles living in the district to move in the provincial capital!

“Hmph, three hundred thousand gold pieces? What a joke! ”Lady You Yue underestimates doing such business. Although there were strong supporters behind Baron Yin, he was not afraid of them. His Kong Clan had several Transcendent Clans as business partners, so why was he afraid of the Yin Baron?

Deng deng. He went down the stairs to a lower level.

Lady You Yue naturally swept her gaze across the second floor.

Previously, he had walked up the stairs, looking up as he did so. He could not look around the second floor as he passed by. However, at this time, when he walked down the stairs, he was able to sweep his gaze to the second floor, paying attention to the back of the figure facing him – black-robed young man figure.

"Mn?" Lady You Yue's body trembled. He stopped .

He stared at the back of the black-robed young man …

It feels so familiar!

That familiar back was something that made him remember his regret for many years. He recalled his past many times, and Xue Ying's back was something he was very familiar with.

And the current figure of the back was exactly the same as the one in the past!

"Is that him?" Madam You Yue did not dare to believe her eyes. He nervously walked towards her, his entire body started to sweat. He had not felt such anxiety for many years.
