Chapter 173: Scamp of 172 Cities (13) Four More
Ye Shaohua stayed in S City for over three months before finally heading to the Ye Family.
On the way, because of several rather dangerous Feng Shui bureaus, Ye Shaohua had someone send Ye Min back to the Ye Family first.
"Are you that concerned about your little brother? Is he your own brother?" On the plane, the cool man beside her asked indifferently.
As Ye Shaohua flipped through a storybook of the Feng Shui World, she responded without lifting her head, "Five million, wire the money."
The reason she stayed in S City for more than three months was entirely because she encountered Fu Jinyun, especially since she saw the death qi entwined around him.
Fu Heng, who was following Fu Jinyun, watched as Ye Shaohua briskly turned the pages of the book, unsure if she was actually reading it. After all, she could finish such a thick book in less than an hour.
Legend had it that reading ten lines at a glance wasn’t even that impressive, right?
But he didn’t dare to speak. In the three months, he had completely recognized how terrifying Ye Shaohua was. Even the Ghost King, who had given the Feng Shui World a headache, was collected by her into a mirror for her amusement. What more could he dare to say?
"Miss Ye, why are you also returning to Imperial City?" Fu Heng asked Ye Shaohua curiously, "Don’t you dislike the air there?"
"What do you know about the Shen Family?" Ye Shaohua didn’t answer him, just glanced at Fu Jinyun.
Fu Heng: "..."
Fu Jinyun was silent for a moment before speaking, "My grandfather said, before he was still alive, that Old Master Shen had already reached the status of a demi-god."
"How old is he?" Ye Shaohua frowned.
"159."
Ye Shaohua nodded and said no more.
After getting off the plane, Fu Heng intended to invite Ye Shaohua to visit the Fu Family for a while, but as soon as he turned around, Ye Shaohua had disappeared.
Fu Jinyun’s expression remained unchanged, "Let’s go home."
**
Uncle Ye had long known about Ye Shaohua’s return but didn’t pay much attention to it, not even mentioning it to the rest of the Ye Family.
Even if he mentioned it, the second young lady of the Ye Family or Ye Elder Brother wouldn’t notice Ye Shaohua.
A third young lady who was retrieved and then spent three months outside, once back at the Ye Family, found everyone else had already found their own backers, leaving only her alone.
When Uncle Ye took Ye Shaohua to meet the Ye clan leader, the clan leader was meeting with a distinguished guest.
"Third lady, the clan leader is currently unavailable. I’ll have someone take you to your residence first. The Ye Family is currently holding a shamanic ritual, and many elders have arrived. Don’t wander around and provoke them," said Uncle Ye seriously.
Ye Shaohua didn’t care much. She simply asked, "Where’s Ye Min?"
"Young Master Eight should currently be at the ancestral hall with others," Uncle Ye replied without much concern.
If Ye Shaohua had gone in, she would have seen that the one talking to the Ye clan leader was Master Zhou. However, Master Zhou wasn’t as amiable as he was during the video call; his face bore an air of inscrutable depth.
"Master Zhou, you won’t meet that third young lady?" Master Zhou glanced at the Ye clan leader.
The Ye clan leader had long heard from Uncle Ye about Ye Shaohua and knew she was someone who didn’t strive for higher status, so he was unconcerned. He bowed respectfully, "She is just a junior of the Ye Family. I’m troubling you with this, Master Zhou."
"Not bad, if it weren’t for the enlightenment of a young friend, I wouldn’t have progressed so quickly," Master Zhou sighed.
Hearing this, the Ye clan leader was even more shaken internally. Who could be giving Master Zhou enlightenment?
While there was turmoil inside, it didn’t show on his face.
Master Zhou was a highly respected master in the Feng Shui World. The Ye Family had indeed fallen on hard times over the years. It was very difficult to return to past glories; otherwise, why would they need to invite outsiders for the protection of their ancestors?
This type of matter would definitely be much better if handled by a member of the family.
However, it was precisely because the Ye Family members lacked that ability that they had invited Master Zhou to maintain order.
Thinking of this, the Ye clan leader sighed.
As Ye Shaohua walked, she observed the Ye Family’s location. The Ye Family was also situated on a dragon vein, but this dragon vein was on its last breath. If no measures were taken soon, it might turn from a dragon vein into a breeding ground for corpses.
If she could see this, then surely someone from the Ye Family had noticed it long ago and hadn’t cared.
The Ye Family had arranged for the found members to stay in the same building.
Holding the key, Uncle Ye, worried that she would offend someone, had the servant lead her on a roundabout route.
"Third lady, this is your room," the servant said lazily.
Paying little respect to this third young lady, who wasn’t really considered the official master of the Ye Family, the servant knew who was worth pleasing. It would have been strange if he had treated Ye Shaohua with respect.
Although Ye Shaohua was nominally the third young lady of the Ye Family, her status might not even compare to a servant’s.
As she unlocked the door, the servant felt something was amiss, a chill rising from the soles of his feet.
But before he could warn Ye Shaohua, he saw her nonchalantly pull a compass from her pocket and toss it onto the table, then casually moved a few trinkets around.
Strangely, the moment the compass touched the table, the chill on the servant’s body dissipated.
The atmosphere in the room instantly changed.
The servant, who initially didn’t take Ye Shaohua seriously, now couldn’t help but reveal a look of shock.
The servant’s attitude towards Ye Shaohua also altered dramatically.
Uncle Ye had instructed him to watch Ye Shaohua and not let her disturb the nobles. At this moment, the servant didn’t dare say anything against Shaohua, his attitude taking a 360-degree turn.
Ye Shaohua checked the direction and headed straight for the Ye Family’s ancestral hall.
Ye Second Young Lady and Fourth Young Lady met Ye Shaohua near the ancestral hall. The fourth young lady was surprised, "Third sister, how come you’re here?"
Ye Shaohua, seeing the ominous aura rising above the entire ancestral hall, frowned deeply. What was going on with the Ye Family?
Upon hearing her younger sister’s words, she casually replied, "...to pay my respects."
"Why did you come back today?" Ye Second Young Lady, upon seeing Ye Shaohua, couldn’t help but frown in distaste. However, she didn’t want to squabble over this now, "Never mind, fourth sister, keep an eye on her. Don’t let her run around or cause trouble."
Everyone else knew that Ye Shaohua wasn’t favored by the second young lady, inevitably keeping their distance from her.
Having said that, the Ye clan leader and Master Zhou also arrived at the entrance of the ancestral hall, followed by a very solemn Ye Elder Brother.
As a gifted representative of the younger generation, Ye Second Young Lady stepped up to greet them.
Master Zhou, who was speaking with the Ye clan leader, merely nodded slightly and didn’t pay much attention. With his status, indeed, there was no need to engage with a junior.
None of the others found anything amiss either.
"Clan leader Ye, this ancestor of your family is not easy to summon," Master Zhou said, looking at the ancestral hall and sighing.
The Ye clan leader bowed. He was well aware of the current situation of the Ye Family; otherwise, he wouldn’t have embarrassed himself by asking Master Zhou for help, "As long as Master Zhou is willing to help, the Ye Family owes you a debt of gratitude."
Wait a second... Master Zhou paused, looking in a certain direction, then rubbed his eyes.
After confirming he wasn’t seeing things, Master Zhou regarded the Ye clan leader emotionlessly: "...Clan leader Ye, this isn’t right. With Master Ye here, why are you asking me to make a fool of myself in front of her?"
