Chapter 1183 Don't Want to Get Involved
Earlier at the gate of the city, he was pretending to use Ye Tian as a shield. That kind of appearance doesn't look like a person who has no thoughts and quick talk like his sister Miao Yitong.
Then Ye Tian ignored Miao Youfu and handed the chopsticks to Xiao Huibai.
"Eat, eat as much as you can."
Xiao Huibai was uncharacteristically this time, he didn't stare at Ye Tian in a daze, just took the chopsticks, and swallowed crazily there.
Ye Tian looked at the appearance of eating, and patted her head pityingly.
"Brother Ye is really kind. With such a profound cultivation and pure personality, I can't help but feel a little moved." Miao Youfu said charmingly, but it was hard to tell whether she was telling the truth or not.
Ye Tian pretended not to hear, but Miao Yitong who was sitting on the other side was in a hurry.
"Sister, you don't really have thoughts about this person, do you?"
Miao Youfu didn't reply, just smiled tactfully, and started eating, and Miao Yitong didn't bother about this topic too much.
Halfway through the meal, Miao Yitong finished eating and went back under Miao Youfu's signal, leaving only Ye Tian, Miao Youfu, and Xiao Huibai on the table.
"Brother Ye, I have something important to tell you today."
Seeing this, Ye Tian put down the bowls and chopsticks, he himself had something to ask Miao Youfu, only Xiao Huibai was left eating there.
"Go ahead, I just want to ask you something."
"Okay, brother Ye, do you remember the place I promised you in the land of return? Maybe there will be some twists and turns in the middle."
"tell me the story."
Miao Youfu put away the bowls and chopsticks and stood up, walking to Ye Tian's side.
"This quota was originally held in the hands of the family. I gave it away on my own wish. The family didn't like it, but I didn't want to take it back directly."
"It's easy to handle. I don't need this quota very much, as long as you can send me to the Central Holy Continent as soon as possible."
Hearing what Ye Tian said, Miao Youfu was a little puzzled.
"Brother Ye can save a lot of things with this quota. There is no need to fight with others on the list of talents."
"I really don't need it, you just need to take me to the central holy continent." Ye Tian picked up the tea on the side to relieve his tiredness, and took a sip.
Seeing that Ye Tian wanted this, Miao Youfu didn't try to persuade him any more. If Ye Tian insisted on not wanting this quota, then she didn't need to talk about the following things.
"The warship to the Central Holy Continent is not long, and it came in a few days. Brother Ye will just wait here in my mansion, and no one else will disturb you." After speaking, he turned around and left the restaurant.
This behavior made Ye Tian a little puzzled. She hadn't acted like this in front of Ye Tian these few days. Why did Ye Tian simply leave today as soon as Ye Tian was sure that she didn't want this quota?
Ye Tian didn't think much about it, and he couldn't figure out this kind of thing, so he waited in the restaurant until Xiao Huibai had finished eating, and then took her back to another courtyard.
Since she said that the warship is coming in a few days, it is best not to have any troubles in the past few days, which will affect the progress of morale.
Xiao Huibai followed Ye Tian back to the room, but looked a little embarrassed. After returning to the room, Ye Tian just let himself think about things and forgot about her existence. Xiao Huibai didn't dare to disturb her, and just waited quietly by the side.
When it was late at night, Ye Tian remembered that he hadn't settled Xiao Huibai, so he turned his attention back to look at her.
Xiao Huibai had already fallen asleep lying on the side, her cheeks squeezed by the edge of the bed, she looked really cute.
Ye Tian stroked her hair, it became much softer after taking a shower, and immediately carried her to the bed. He hasn't figured out what to do with Xiao Huibai yet. Originally, he wanted to undo the slave mark with her at night, but after thinking about it so late, he didn't want to wake up the thin girl again, so he put it aside for now. Bar.
He tidied up and meditated directly under the bed until dawn.
"Huh..."
The next day, Xiao Huibai stretched her waist and got up. Her big eyes looked around in a daze, as if she hadn't woken up yet, she rubbed her body vigorously, and then she saw Ye Tian who was meditating under the bed. It was stopped by Ye Tian.
"You sleep more, I'll just go out for a walk"
Ye Tian got up and straightened his clothes, then opened the door and went out. Xiao Huibai in the room was still not clear about the situation, his eyes flickered as he looked at the direction Ye Tian was leaving, wondering what he was thinking about.
After Ye Tian went out, he walked straight to the gate.
Xiao Huibai woke up quite early, there were not many people on the street, but many breakfast shops were open, and the steaming tray was steaming.
Seeing this scene, Ye Tian's exhaustion from practicing all night was gone, he walked around the street, bought some food to take back to Xiao Huibai.
"Have you seen clearly, that person is from the eldest lady's mansion?"
"Isn't it? I went in yesterday afternoon, went out for a stroll and then went back. I told you right after I came out."
Not far behind Ye Tian, two people were following him furtively. Ye Tian had noticed it a long time ago, but he didn't know what these two people wanted to do, let them follow behind first, so he could hear some news.
"Is it because of this person that Miss gave up her place in the clan?" The slightly fatter of the two pointed at Ye Tian and said with some doubts.
"I guess so. I heard from the guards that this man was by his side when they went to look for the young lady. What the young lady said in the meeting hall should be true."
"But who is Mr. Muyuan Mu? If this kid goes up and fights Mr. Mu, he will probably be beaten all over the floor." The fat man looked down on Ye Tian, and Ye Tian just laughed when he heard this. smiled.
"Well, you don't look like a bad guy, just a little unlucky." The thin one shook his head, as if he felt sorry for Ye Tian.
"How can you say it's unlucky? It's the quota he wanted, and he got himself into trouble. Some things in the world still have to be done according to one's ability, and it depends on whether you are qualified enough."
Hearing this, Ye Tian grinned at the corner of his mouth, and the aura in his hands moved secretly, bumping into the shop next to the two of them.
The stall owner thought it was the two who had crashed the shop, and pestered them to demand compensation. After they dealt with it, they came out and saw that Ye Tian didn't know where he had gone for a long time.
Ye Tian leisurely walked back to Miao Youfu's mansion, which had another name, Lingluo Mansion.
When Ye Tian first knew the name, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't expect that a woman who had cultivated to this level would have some thoughts about the name of the mansion, which made people laugh.
Before Ye Tian got close to Lingluo Mansion, he was stopped by someone.
"Is your name King Quan?"
Two men who looked like soldiers blocked Ye Tian's way, looking back through their figures, there was a small group of people standing there, as if to prevent Ye Tian from running away.
"Is your name King Quan?"
Seeing that Ye Tian didn't answer, the man asked again.
Wang Quan himself used the name once, it was a pseudonym used when introducing the pair of sisters, and the fact that the person in front of him could say it clearly meant that he was from the Miao family.
"Yes, I am King Quan."
"It's fine if it's royal power, our elder Zong wants you to go there.",
As he said, he wanted to drive Ye Tian to send him to the family mansion. As soon as those two people put their hands on Ye Tian's body, they were shaken away by Ye Tian with a burst of strength, and flew backward.
"I don't need your help, I'll go by myself and lead the way."
Seeing that Ye Tian had such strength, those people easily knocked out the members of their team, and they no longer acted arrogantly, leading the way respectfully.
"Sure enough, this kind of thing can't be avoided." Ye Tian shook his head. He thought that he could borrow the Miao Clan's boat to go to the holy continent in the middle, but he still had something to do, so he had to send soldiers to block the water. Cover up, play by ear.
The family mansion and Lingluo Mansion are fairly close, and Ye Tian and these people arrived not long after they left.
"This is the person named by Elder Zong."
The captain of the team that escorted him just now spoke to the servants in the mansion, and the two captains were left outside, leading Ye Tian to the meeting hall.
The meeting hall was already full of people, and the Miao sisters had already been sitting there at the last table on the left. Miao Yitong was a little surprised to see Ye Tian being brought here, but Miao Youfu didn't respond, just sipping tea there.
"Brother Ye, we meet again." Mu Yuan on the right suddenly said hello to Ye Tian.
Ye Tian ignored him, and he was not annoyed, and sat there with a smile on his face.
"Your name is Wang Quan, right? You lured our Mingzhu to make a promise to you. You know you are guilty!" The chief on the left stood up and shouted at Ye Tian.
This made Ye Tian amused, he had never asked this Miao Youfu for this quota, how could he be tricked by him in this clan?
He glanced at Miao Youfu, and Miao Youfu also looked at Ye Tian, and shook his head gently at her, denying that he said such words.
"Your Miao family is very prestigious, you sent someone to escort me here to put such a big hat on me."
Seeing that Ye Tian's answer was wrong, without the slightest respect, the man became even more annoyed.
"Your crime, if you were a member of our clan, you would have been put in prison a long time ago! But Zong Lao thought that you had done a good job in protecting the Pearl, so he didn't care about you. If you leave Nanya Capital City, you will never come back in your life. We will I can spare you from dying."
Ye Tian's pupils narrowed in that lofty manner, and he smiled disdainfully. To do this kind of behavior is really pretending to be a big family.
"Is this how you Miao clan backfire? You Mingzhu just promised me this quota yesterday, and today you are going to expel me on a false charge?"
Ye Tian's directness made the face of the person who spoke ugly.
"Bold, come, let this kid..."
"shut up!"
Elder Zong, who was seated on the right seat, also stopped the man with words, and waved him back to his seat.
"Little friend is young and has extraordinary cultivation, which is the envy of the old man. It's just that this position is useful to the clan, and it is inappropriate to be granted so easily."
"Why is it illegal?"
Ye Tian stands above this meeting hall, he has confidence, if he wants to leave, no one can keep him here.
"How about this, my family is willing to compensate you with a sea blue marrow, thank you for protecting the pearl and giving up the quota."
Sea blue marrow is a kind of material for refining weapons. When refining weapons, adding this sea blue marrow during smelting can make weapons more compatible with water elements, and cooperate with the user's celestial arts to increase their power to a higher level.
This Miao family is generous, Ye Tian didn't want this quota at first, probably they invited him this time to give him a big shot, let Ye Tian back down, and then give him some sweetness so that he doesn't have to be jealous, turned around and left go.
Their abacus was right, but they were right about the wrong person.
Ye Tian doesn't like troubles, but he is not afraid of troubles when they come to the door, not to mention that the man turned black and white and splashed dirty water, which made Ye Tian very disliked.
"I'm here to thank Elder Zong, but I don't intend to give up this spot."
Ye Tian clenched his fists, everyone thought he knew current affairs, but they didn't expect to say such words.
In front of outsiders, Elder Zong didn't lose his composure like yesterday. He chuckled and said:
"I wonder if there is anything that my little friend can sincerely give up? My little friend suggested that if there is something in my clan, I will give it to you."
"I only want this quota, and nothing else can tempt me." Ye Tian shook his head and said firmly.
"Brother Ye, do you know what you are going to do with this quota?"
At this time, Mu Yuan, who was sitting on the right, stood up and walked up to Ye Tian to confront him.
"People without any strength in the place of return to one place are still cannon fodder if they go there, it is tantamount to handing over those talents and treasures to others for nothing. Even if they have some strength, if they can't suppress a genius, going there is just reduced to someone else's errands. "
"I don't know if Brother Ye is a person with some strength, or a person without strength?"
The provocation in that tone made Ye Tian feel very joking, it seemed that it had been a long time since such a person who was not afraid of death appeared in front of him, and even questioned his qualifications there.
"I don't know if I have enough status, but you must belong to those who have no strength. They are eager to get this quota back because they want to give it to you, right? Doesn't the quota you handed over mean that you have no strength. "Ye Tian refuted him with sharp words.
Kihara smiled as if he didn't care, then turned his head and clasped fists at the Zong Lao and the patriarch.
"The patriarch of the Miao family, the elder of the Miao family, this brother Wang Quan seems to have some strength, I implore Yiwu to decide the ownership of this quota, if I can defeat him, it means that he is not worthy of this opportunity, and the quota will naturally return to the clan , if he wins, it means that he has the qualifications to compete, and I won't say anything to stop him."
"Okay, as Mr. Yimu said, you will decide the outcome in the group arena."
The elder Zong connected quickly, as if he was afraid that Ye Tian would not agree, so he settled the matter.
Ye Tian smiled helplessly, this was a pit they had prepared for him to step into, and he was not unable to stop it, but it seemed that it would be much more interesting to let things continue to develop.
"Okay, if I win, I don't need this quota, but the Pearl of your family has to follow me, if I lose, the quota will be handed over."
As soon as Ye Tian's words came out, there was an uproar, and everyone in the hall discussed, and the faces of Miao Youfu and Miao Yitong blushed together.
"Bold, is the pearl of our clan someone you can covet?" The person who made dirty words just now stood up and scolded Ye Tian again.
Ye Tian didn't look at him, but said arrogantly
"I don't know if I can't covet it, or you Miao clan are afraid of losing and dare not make this bet."
Such contempt made everyone in the hall look at Ye Tian with unkind eyes.
"Okay, I, the Miao Clan, will make this bet with you."
Elder Zong tapped the floor with his cane, signaling for others to be quiet.
"Then let's fight in the arena tomorrow. I'll give you a day to prepare, but there is no objection."
"No." Ye Tian and Na Muyuan replied together.
Ye Tian had no choice but to enter under this trap, and he was not familiar with the place. If he turned his face directly, there would be many obstacles. What he has to do now is to go to the Central Holy Continent as soon as possible, and everything is based on this goal.
When Ye Tian walked out of the meeting hall, Miao Youfu chased after her and wanted to explain something, but was stopped by the patriarch to give instructions, and Ye Tian disappeared after giving instructions. ,
"This Miao family is quite powerful."
Ye Tian was still very dissatisfied with this approach. After all, he was also the jewel that saved them, so he would not be captured by those kidnappers. Why is he beaten up now, saying that he intends to lure Miao Youfu to agree to this quota.
He was still happy being the Lord of Myriad Realms in his original world, and no one dared to pay attention to him.
"Have you heard that Mr. Mu is going to fight someone in the arena?"
"Where did you know the news? Mr. Mu hasn't fought anyone for a long time."
"It was just reported from the Miao Clan Chamber, and not many people know about it yet."
"Then they are playing a group arena tomorrow?"
"That's right, bet more on Mr. Mu this time, and I'm sure I can earn some money back."
Not long after Ye Tian came out, people on the street began to discuss this matter. It is unknown who spread the news. It seems that they intend to make things bigger.
This bet made Ye Tian think a little bit. He saved some of the jade crystals on his body for Gu Yuan and the others, and then he also spent some jade crystals on the road, and bought that stone and Xiao Huibai. There are about 30,000 left, and if he wants to go to the Central Holy Continent, he will have to spend some jade crystals on the way to Baobuqi. In his realm, the 30,000 to 40,000 are not enough.
This group arena match is good, as soon as he turned his eyes, he had an idea in his mind.
Back in the other courtyard, Xiao Huibai had already gotten up, was looking left and right in the room, and when he saw Ye Tian coming back, he immediately stood up straight.
"How about it, do you have some strength in your body?" Even if Ye Tian was targeted outside, he would not vent his anger on others, and would still talk to Xiao Huibai in a pleasant manner.
"Return to the master, yes." Xiao Huibai didn't get up today as dull as yesterday, but a little timid, more like a ten-year-old child.
"You don't need to call me master, just call me Ye Tian. Do you know where you come from?"
"Yes, Lord, Ye Tian. I don't know where I came from. I have lived in the boss's yard since I was a child."
That being said, the parents of this little lion girl can't be found, so I have to find an opportunity to entrust her to someone I trust.
In this case, the slave mark cannot be removed now. Although the slave mark has a bad symbolic meaning, it is there. If Xiao Huibai is in danger, he can sense it immediately and appear by her side to protect her.
"By the way, I still have to go to that store to pick up clothes today, Xiao Huibai, go out with me." Ye Tian suddenly remembered that there were still custom-made clothes in that store, and the boss asked him to pick them up today. It's still early, take Xiao Huibai out and let her have a stroll.
Xiao Huibai timidly grabbed the corner of Ye Tian's clothes, Ye Tian thought for a while, then took off his hand and put it in Xiao Huibai's palm.
"Don't worry, no one will hurt you with me."
Seeing Ye Tian say such words, Xiao Huibai's big eyes flickered, opened and closed to look at Ye Tian, but did not show timidity.
Ye Tian took him out of Lingluo Mansion and went to the street. Today's Xiao Huibai was different from yesterday. Compared with yesterday, he was a little more angry. He took Ye Tian's hand to look left and right, but he still didn't speak much.
Seeing her staring at the candied haws seller passing by, Ye Tian couldn't help smiling, and stepped forward to stop the peddler.
"You candied haws, give me two."
After paying the money, he handed one to Xiao Huibai, and took one for himself.
Xiao Huibai seemed to be seeing candied haws for the first time, holding it in his hand and observing it carefully, he didn't say anything for a long time.
This kind of slaves have been kept in captivity since they were young. Those people taught them to use leather whips to stimulate them to remember that few people treat them well. It is even better to give her a bath, new clothes and take her out like Ye Tian. not enough.
The tailor's shop is quite close, just three or two steps away, Ye Tian dragged Xiao Huibai into the shop, and the proprietress came up to meet him like yesterday.
"Guest officer, do you want to take yesterday's clothes?"
"right."
"okay."
The proprietress turned around and told the helpers in the store to get them, and then turned to sell clothes to Ye Tian. Ye Tian thought that indeed, people who practice Taoism usually prepare a few more sets of clothes to wear outside. Knowing what time it is, so I obeyed the proprietress and bought a few more clothes and put them in the Qiankun bag.
I also bought a few more gray and white clothes, and I don't know when I will send her away. If I don't send them away in a while, I have to prepare some clothes for her.
Now that the clothes are always purchased, they dragged Xiao Huibai out of the store, and the proprietress came out to give them off very actively, as if she was afraid that others would not know that he was a big customer.
Walking forward, he came to the slave stall where he bought Xiao Huibai yesterday. Ye Tian knelt down and looked at her.
"Do you want to go that way? If not, let's change direction."
Xiao Huibai nodded, with a firm light in his eyes.
Now Ye Tian scratched his head and couldn't figure it out, logically speaking, Xiao Huibai shouldn't want to see that slave owner's face again.
Ye Tian led her forward, his big eyes flickered, and he didn't know what his little brain was thinking.
When passing by the stall, Xiao Huibai walked very slowly, and his eyes were also looking at the other slaves in the cage. At this time yesterday, she was still in the cage with them, letting those customers come and choose.
There are also few people who come to pick these slaves, because the price is expensive, and they may be cheated. The slaves who bought them died not long after, so they set up stalls with this slave owner for many years, often without enough food and sleep. Can only curl up in the cage to sleep.
This kind of life makes people lose their energy.
