Chapter 7 The Setting Sun Is Like Blood
"Is something wrong?" Ye Zhong didn't even move his eyelids.
The two men in strong robes looked at each other. Originally they thought that this legendary good-for-nothing young master would be scared to pee, but they didn't expect him to be so calm.
"Hehe, it's like this. My lady said that today is the day of everyone's engagement. No matter what, you must go, Master Ye Zhong!" The man in the robe in front grinned.
Hearing this, Ye Zhong frowned, but he vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a thing as an engagement today, but why would he take this matter seriously now? What other people do, what does it matter to him? What's more, his first priority now is cultivation.
Seeing that Ye Zhong seemed unwilling, the man in front continued to chuckle and said: "Of course, my lady also knows that Master Ye Zhong is such a character that she definitely doesn't like her. At the engagement banquet tonight, I asked for a divorce, and I must succeed... If you fail, Wang Mo will die!"
"Wang Mo!?" A cold light flashed in Ye Zhong's eyes, and with his scheming at the moment, he understood the truth in an instant. These two people should be Su Kui's bodyguards. They probably captured Wang Mo and forced him to attend the engagement banquet, and then divorced at the banquet. And in that case, it seems that his fate will not be much better, right? It seems that the person who wants to kill himself is his nominal next fiancée, Su Kui?
"Lead the way." After thinking about this, Ye Zhong said lightly.
Hearing that, the two guards were taken aback again. Originally, they were planning to use some tough tactics, but Ye Zhong's performance today was unexpected, but Ye Zhong can go as long as he can. For a person who is destined to die, they No mood and interest to speculate on his changes.
Under the leadership of the two, they soon came to the City Lord's Mansion located in the center of Jiangzhou City.
A guard chuckled and said, "Master Ye Zhong, please."
After all, the two of them were going to drive Ye Zhong towards the city lord's mansion.
Ye Zhong didn't even look at them. Before they approached, he had already walked towards the city lord's mansion.
The guards around the City Lord's Mansion seemed to have known Ye Zhong's identity for a long time, and they didn't stop him at this moment. Instead, they bowed and let Ye Zhong enter the City Lord's Mansion.
After entering the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, there was a spacious compound. When Ye Zhong entered, a green figure was about to leave in a hurry.
Seeing this figure, Ye Zhong suddenly said indifferently: "Liu Qingmeng."
The figure that Liu Qingmeng was about to walk out was startled. She felt that this voice was very familiar, as if it had been lingering in her ears these days.
"Ye Zhong!?" Turning around, Liu Qingmeng looked at Ye Zhong's quiet lake-like face with disbelief. Liu Qingmeng was also cultivating in Feihong Wufu, so she naturally knew about this waste from the Ye family. But, why does the voice of this trash from the Ye family look so similar to the person I've been looking for these days?
"Can you do me a favor?" Ye Zhong looked at Liu Qingmeng, but vaguely remembered that she was the daughter of the city lord of Jiangzhou City. Originally, Ye Zhong was planning to go to the wedding banquet just like this, but when he saw Liu Qingmeng, his heart moved slightly.
Liu Qingmeng hesitated for a moment, looked at Ye Zhong's indifferent expression, and finally nodded. Subconsciously, she felt that Ye Zhong in front of her should be the person she had been looking for these days.
The two Su family guards who followed were slightly taken aback when they saw this scene, but Ye Zhong only needed to come, and they didn't dare to stop Liu Qingmeng at the moment.
"If you need my help, tell me." After struggling for a moment, Liu Qingmeng spoke softly.
"Can you bring me some swords and swords to the dinner party? I'll wait for you." After speaking, Ye Zhong smiled and nodded, then turned and left.
Looking at Ye Zhong's back, Liu Qingmeng suddenly remembered that today is the day when the Ye family and the Su family of the five great families got engaged in Jiangzhou Mansion! And Ye Zhong's fiancée will no longer be Su Wenqing, the number one beauty in Yanjing, but Su Kui from today on!
What does he need a sword for? Liu Qingmeng was slightly dazed, but unexpectedly, she turned around and walked quickly towards the Hyogo of the City Lord's Mansion. No matter what Ye Zhong wanted to do, she found that she seemed unable to refuse his request at the moment.
Guided by the guards of the City Lord's Mansion along the way, Ye Zhong slowly came to the hall in the middle of the City Lord's Mansion. At this moment, the hall was decorated with lights and festoons, with big red lanterns and huge red cloth hanging, looking beaming. At this moment, in that hall, many people are already sitting on both sides of the hall. And at the top position, there are three imposing figures sitting upright at this moment, and the person in the middle is Liu Han, the lord of Jiangzhou City.
After the two guards sent Ye Zhong to the hall, they quickly retreated. At this moment, only Ye Zhong was standing empty at the entrance of the hall.
A blood-colored setting sun fell on the entrance of the hall at this moment. Ye Zhong stepped in slowly with a flat face.
Seeing Ye Zhong walk in, in an instant, countless eyes fell on him, but these eyes were full of sarcasm and indifference.
Ye's attention line slowly fell to the seats on both sides, and he had already confirmed that the person sitting on his left at the moment should be a member of the Su family from the five great families, and the person on the right side was the member of the Ye family from the five great families. Many of them are Xiao Yezhong's clan brothers, but the way they look at him is more unscrupulous than that of the Su family.
After casually scanning those clan brothers around, Ye Zhong didn't pay special attention to anyone, but soon fell on where the members of the Su family were.
In the place closest to the first three positions, there are two figures wearing red wedding robes sitting kneeling at the moment, they should be Su Wenqing and Su Kui.
Seeing Ye Zhong approaching, a sneer flashed in Su Kui's eyes. Since Ye Zhong was sent by his own guards at this moment, then, whether he wants to or not, he is dead today.
When Ye Zhong's gaze swept over Su Kui, he didn't stop there, but soon fell on another beautiful figure beside Su Kui. Afterwards, Ye Zhong was taken aback for a moment, with a look of disbelief appearing on his face.
The moment everyone in the hall saw Ye Zhong enter the hall, they stared at Su Wenqing, Yanjing's number one beauty, with strange faces, and many of them sneered. No matter if it is from the Ye family or the Su family, there are not many people who have a heart for Su Wenqing. Ye Zhong, Su Wenqing's former fiancé in name, has naturally won the envy and hatred of countless people. And everyone present today knew what the purpose of this banquet was, so Ye Zhong's expression at the moment only made them sneer.
At this moment, Ye Zhong looked at Su Wenqing, who had picturesque features and walked out of a painting. She was not extremely gorgeous, but that soft and charming temperament like an orchid was revealed from the bottom of her bones. Even though she was wearing a wedding gown at this moment, her black silk like ink was loosely falling on her shoulders, which was extremely moving.
On her oval-shaped face, there was a hint of worry at the moment, her brows seemed to be slightly furrowed, and there was an indescribable melancholy and bewilderment in her eyes. At this moment, she is like a fairy descending from the clouds, extremely soft and yet extremely far away.
This kind of look, this kind of temperament, made me haunted in my dreams.
Ye Zhong's figure shook slightly, he let out a long breath, and came back to his senses. He already understood that the person in front of him had an aura just like that of his master Bu Yan. The master just didn't know why, but there were always times when he was in a daze, and at that time, she would show such a similar daze and worry.
It was just a moment of sluggishness, but Ye Zhong already understood that the girl in front of him was not his master Bu Yan, so she had nothing to do with him.
Ye Zhong's expression returned to calm again. He really didn't know Su Wenqing, the number one beauty in Yanjing. Although he had some guesses at the moment, he was not interested in confirming his thoughts.
"Ye Zhong, it's good if you come." The person sitting on the left side of the seat suddenly said with a smile, "You are one of the protagonists today. If you don't come, it will appear that our Ye family is being rude."
Ye Zong glanced over lightly, and recognized this person as Xiao Yezhong's father's brother from the Ye family, called Ye Wuyan, who had quite a bit of status in the family, and was the person in charge of the Ye family and Su family's marriage exchange. .
"This one is Liu Han, the lord of Jiangzhou City. You should have seen him before." Ye Wuyan glanced at Liu Han who was sitting in the middle, and then swept his gaze to the far right. At this moment, a man in a white robe On his body, "This is Daoist Su Hao from the Su family, who will also be your in-laws in the future. I haven't come up to see you yet."
Hearing this, Su Hao turned his head slightly, his eyes fell on Ye Zhong, and he seemed to be smiling but not smiling. He is nearly forty years old this year, but because he is well maintained, he looks like he is in his early thirties. His figure is not tall, and his face is not elegant, but he can give people a feeling of spring breeze.
After staring at Ye Zhong with a half-smile, Su Hao suddenly pulled out a red post from the table in front of him, flicked it with his fingers, and the post landed in the middle of the hall, and at the same time, an indifferent voice sounded.
"Crawl over and pick up that post. From now on, you will be the son-in-law of my Su family. No one can bully you except my Su family, not even the Ye family!"
Ye's attention fell on the red post, and he looked up at Su Kui and Su Hao with a calm expression. It seems that these people don't know what happened in Feihong Wufu just now, but that's good, so that I can give them a big surprise.
"Ye... Ye Chong!?"
At this critical moment, Liu Qingmeng was holding a lot of swords, and carefully popped out a cute head from the side of the entrance of the hall. Looking at this scene, she was also taken aback. What is the situation?
"Are you here?" A rare smile appeared on Ye Zhong's face, and he looked back at Liu Qingmeng, "Thank you, follow me."
After the words fell, Ye Zhong stopped talking nonsense, but reached out and took the sword from Liu Qingmeng's arms, then turned his head slightly, and his eyes fell on the three people at the head of the hall.
"Clang—"
The long sword was unsheathed, and the setting sun sprinkled on the sword body, flickering slightly, like the light of blood.
