Chapter 674: Really Lively

didn't mean it that way." Du Zilin felt uneasy inside. It seemed like Wu was deliberately looking for trouble today. "It's just that I don't have time to do reception work, and today, I need to deal...Long Nü frowned, apparently she had never considered that Yan Wu Que would refuse her request. After a while, she said: "You have no reason to refuse, because you have no chance of winning."

"If I were to join you, would you still hesitate to make a move" an aged voice suddenly came over. The Dragon Girl raised her head in surprise, slightly bowing, and said, "Greetings, Chief."

The visitor was a man well past his seventies. Though elderly, he was exceptionally well-preserved and appeared vibrant with rosy cheeks and an energetic demeanor. He showed not the slightest hint of frailty or age.

Yan Wuque saw the arrival of the person and exclaimed with delight, "Grandfather, how did you come"

"I can't stay away any longer, my grandson would be bullied by others. Even his own men wouldn't be able to protect him. Who else would be willing to follow him in the future" Yan Xiaoti said lightly. He then cast a meaningful glance at the Dragon Girl.

The Dragon Girl dared not look him in the eyes, lowering her head slightly. The head of the Yan family, back then, was the second most powerful figure in the empire. Even the Dragon Fang had to be subservient to him. During his reign, he frequently visited the Dragon Fang for inspections, so the Dragon Girl held an instinctive respect for him.

When Yan Xiaoti heard that his grandson had actually failed to manage the situation, he knew things were bad. The matter had escalated too far, reaching a point where it was uncontrollable on paper. If left unchecked, it could be detrimental to him, so he had no choice but to come forward.

Xiao Jie, who was also nurtured by the Yan family, is currently the only thing missing from the Yan family's power is military strength. The Yan family had finally cultivated a little bit of influence, and Yan Xiaoti naturally wouldn't be willing to let it all go to waste. So he had no choice but to stand up, but can he control the situation as it develops now

Even this old fox has come out, I think we've gotten ourselves into big trouble this time.” The fat man said to Ye Fan with a wry smile.

So what if Yan Xiao-ti comes out He hasn't been in power for many years. Even if the forces behind his family are intricately intertwined, can he control what happens on his own head

Today, no matter what, Xiaojie, he must stay! Ye Fan clenched his fists.

"Miss Lin, don't meddle in this. Take your people away!" Yan Xiaote issued the first order.

Lin Bing remained unmoved, her head bowed as if lost in thought.

Yan Xiaoti frowned, displeased: "How come, you don't even listen to my words anymore"

"Lin Bing dared not." The Dragon Girl Lin Bing felt truly torn. She knew Ye Fan was in danger and she wouldn't agree to ignore him, but on the other hand, he was her former respected leader. Although he wasn't in power anymore, she still had some difficulty letting go of the old leader. She couldn't just leave like this, nor could she follow the old leader's orders. She could only remain silent once again.

"Dare you I say you're very brave now, Lin. Haven't you forgotten when you failed your mission and were punished by Longshou, who pleaded for you so you could stay in Longya"

"Lin Bing would naturally not forget the old leader's kindness, but…" The dragon girl bit her teeth and didn't say any more.

Back then, when she first emerged, just becoming a member of the Dragon's Tooth, her experience was still lacking. As a result, during her first mission, it almost failed because of her. At that time, the Dragon Head was furious and in a rage, he even wanted to expel her. It was Yan Xiaoti who was still in position then, pleaded for her, only then she was spared from punishment.

This is also one of the reasons why Longnu has always been grateful to Yan Xiaoti. But now, the old leader actually uses past kindness to command her to withdraw at this time, which makes Lin Bing a little confused.

"I said, Old Man Yan, why are you making things difficult for a little girl! Aren't you being unkind"

At some point, a path naturally opened up in the crowd. Two elderly men walked slowly down this path. Both were deeply weathered, their faces etched with wrinkles that spoke volumes of their experiences.

Everywhere they went, passersby couldn't help but look at them with respect. No one dared to look down on them, including Xiao Jie. However, when he saw these two old men, his expression changed drastically. He subconsciously retreated behind Yan Wuxue, afraid that these two old men would see him.

"Old Wei" Ye Fan and the Fatty simultaneously greeted him. Wasn't Old Wei always recuperating at the Wei Family Manor How could he be here now And who was he supporting In the Empire, not many people were qualified to be supported by Old Wei, and coincidentally appearing here... Could it be...

As expected, when Ye Qingcheng saw the elderly man walking ahead of him, he excitedly cried out, "Grandpa, how did you come here too"

"Is this man Ye Wuming " Ye Fan cast a second glance at the old man. He just found that the old man's appearance was rather ordinary, and he didn't have any of the distinct qualities one would expect from someone in a position of power, such as domineering aura. Instead, there was always a scholar's demeanor emanating from him. A glimpse of sharpness occasionally flashing in his eyes revealed that he was an incredibly intelligent person.

"I'm sorry, Grandpa. I've let you down..." Seeing his grandfather, Ye Qincheng felt a knot in his heart. There were two people he admired most in his life, one was his grandfather. Starting at the age of twenty, his grandfather had led the Ye family to this day. Under his leadership, the Ye family thrived and became one of the most glorious families in the empire. This man was full of courage!

Another person was his second grandfather. Compared to his grandfather, Ye Wuming, he was even better, but his sharp edges were too obvious. Back then, he offended many people and was driven out of the house by his grandfather.

Ye Wuming lovingly stroked the head of his grandson, Po. Among the younger generation of the Ye family, he loved this grandson the most. He was smart, capable, and diligent!

He smiled and said, “It's alright, Grandpa knows you've done your best.”

“Ye Wuming, what are you running out for Do you want to show off” Yan Xiaoti was thoroughly frustrated with the unexpected turn of events today. He had thought he could fully control the situation, after all, they had made elaborate plans beforehand. But there were too many variables, and in the end, even that old man Ye, who claimed to have retired from politics, came out. Could it be that the Ye family was finally going to make a move

"Old Master Yan, this is the world of young people now. You and I are both getting old, so we should go home to write and tend our flowers. I heard you came here, and I wasn't comfortable with that, so I followed along for some fun." Ye Wuming said it casually, but everyone could hear the meaning behind his words: since Yan Xiaoti has made an appearance, how could Ye Wuming stay put

"Good, good, good!" Yan Xiaoti repeatedly said three "good"s before suddenly turning his head to look at Lao Wei. "Lao Wei, what about you Why are you here"

"Lao Wei chuckled wryly: 'I, this old geezer, was dragged here by Lao Ye to put on a show.'" Meaning he was just there to make up the numbers.

What is your attitude then

"Well, since my big brother thinks highly of me, I have to give him some face, don't I What do you think, Lao Yan"

"Good, good, very good...." Yan Xiaoti said three "goods" in a row, but Ye Fan didn't know what was so good about it. "Very good!" After saying that, Yan Xiaoti didn't look at this place again, and turned to leave. have to help me get those two women," Guo Zisheng pointed at Si Kong Yanran and Yu Fei, his words venomous. "I want to defile them first then kill them."The soldier stiffened, his brow furrowed. “You...
