Chapter 403

Hearing Qu Gaoyi and Ying Jiu call themselves subordinates and their attitudes were so respectful, Huo Xingchen couldn’t help but frown, and subconsciously felt that something was not right.

The experts of the Yang family’s Blood Servant Hall didn’t seem to be this kind and friendly when dealing with people, right？

“How about we make a bet？” Yang Kai suddenly spoke up and suggested, looking at Huo Xingchen with a smile.

“What bet？” Huo Xingchen immediately became interested.

“Just bet on whether I can survive tonight！”

Turning his head to look at Yang Kai, the expression of Young Master Huo of Zhongdu Wolf became playful, and a pair of eyes narrowed slightly, his mind turning rapidly.

“Scared？” Yang Kai chuckled inwardly, his expression rather cold as he snorted and said, “If you’re scared, don’t follow. Be careful of losing your life tonight. I heard that you’re the only seedling of the Huo family. If you really die in the War City, things won’t end well！”

“Scared？” Huo Xingchen sneered. “In my life, I don’t know how to write the word scared. If you dare to bet with me, I’ll make you lose convinced！ Don’t you know that what I’m best at is eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling？”

As he spoke, he had a look of excitement on his face.

“What’s the bet？” Huo Xingchen asked.

Yang Kai sized him up and down and said, “You’re penniless now. I’m afraid you don’t have anything to bet with, right？”

Huo Xingchen was stunned and scratched his head, saying, “That’s true.”

“Then let’s play for small stakes.” Yang Kai smiled lightly. “If you lose, I don’t want anything from you. You just need to run ten laps around the War City naked！”

“This… This isn’t very appropriate, is it, Brother Kai…” Huo Xingchen suddenly looked worried. Running naked around the War City for ten laps would be so embarrassing!

“Anyway, your reputation is already bad. Running ten laps isn’t a big deal. The more debts, the less worry; the more lice, the less itch.” Yang Kai raised his eyebrows at him, looking rather wretched.

Hearing him say this, Huo Xingchen couldn’t help but think it made sense and nodded, saying, “That’s right. But I don’t think I’ll lose. What will you give me if you lose?”

Yang Kai whistled. Suddenly, a loud eagle’s cry came from the sky！

Immediately, a golden light swooped down, and the handsome Golden Feather Eagle landed steadily on Yang Kai’s shoulder, its sharp eyes shining brightly.

“If I lose, I’ll give it to you！”

Huo Xingchen couldn’t contain his joy. If Yang Kai said he would lose some property or secret treasure to him, he might not be interested. As the only heir of the Huo family, how could he lack property or secret treasures？

But the Golden Feather Eagle was different. This was a unique monster beast of the Yang family. Not to mention its good strength, just its appearance made Huo Xingchen very tempted.

In the future, when going out, if he could bring the Golden Feather Eagle with him like Yang Kai, it would also be a matter of showing off.

The arrogant and extravagant young master just liked these kinds of things.

“It’s a deal！” Huo Xingchen was afraid that Yang Kai would go back on his word and quickly finalized it. He also looked at the Golden Feather Eagle with joy on his face and murmured, “Eagle, eagle, after tonight, your surname will be Huo！”

Yang Kai smiled. He didn’t say anything.

A hundred miles away from Zhongdu, the Battle City.

This was a city built by the Yang family themselves. Although it was not as prosperous and vast as Zhongdu, it was quite good. Usually, it was only used as an ordinary city, but every time it came to the battle for the heir, this place would become a battlefield.

The Battle City has eight corners, and there is a mansion at each corner, which is prepared for the eight young masters participating in the fight for the throne.

Perhaps in the long time to come, they will be engaged in a seesaw battle here.

Looking at all dynasties and generations. The battle for the throne in the Yang family rarely has a winner in a short period of time. Most of them are protracted battles and often take three to five years to decide the result.

And according to the records in the Yang family’s books, a hundred years ago, there was a head of the Yang family. He only took less than half a year to win the final victory.

Such achievements are already quite impressive, because the more to the end, the stronger the enemies to deal with, and the more difficult it is to win.

Only when one has a considerable advantage oneself can one easily defeat the enemy.

The brothers entered the city in turn. The entire Battle City also boiled instantly. There were originally many people living here, but more people had already left, just afraid of being implicated in the battle for the throne of the Yang family.

The people who are still left are all bold people, and they are also quite looking forward to the battle for the throne.

After greeting each other, the brothers all tacitly separated and went to their respective mansions.

Yang Kai’s mansion is in the northwest corner. The location is not very good, relatively remote and desolate, but he doesn’t care either.

Only four people walked slowly to the mansion in the northwest corner. There were two pretty maids standing at the door, and there were also some servants in the mansion for command. These were sent by the Yang family to serve the daily lives of the young masters. It was the treatment that every mansion had. These people were just ordinary people, and there was no need to worry that they could affect the outcome of the battle for the heir.

When Yang Kai arrived, the two young girls both curtsied gracefully and said, “Greetings, Young Master Kai！”

The tone was not very enthusiastic, just going through the motions, but both Yang Kai and Huo Xingchen subtly noticed that the expressions of these two maids were faintly a little disappointed.

Obviously, because they were assigned to the mansion of a young master with little future, the two girls felt that there was no hope.

Although the servants in these mansions would not participate in the battle for the heir, of course they also hoped to follow a more outstanding young master. In this way, not only could their own safety be guaranteed without worry, but also if the young master they served was satisfied, when the young master inherited the position of the head of the family in the future, they could also rise with the tide.

Huo Xingchen smiled and looked at Yang Kai, as if he found it quite interesting that even these ordinary servants thought he had no future.

Yang Kai’s expression was calm, and he just nodded slightly and led Qu Gaoyi and Ying Jiu into the mansion.

Behind him, Huo Xingchen giggled lecherously and said to the two young girls, “What are the names of the two girls？”

Seeing Huo Xingchen’s lecherous and despicable expression, the two young girls couldn’t help but turn pale with fright and continuously retreated.

They naturally knew the great reputation of the Wolf of Central Capital. Just as they were secretly worried that they might not escape his clutches this time, Yang Kai’s voice came from inside： “None of the people in my residence are allowed to be touched！”

Huo Xingchen was stunned and shouted： “Hey, Yang Kai, you’re managing too much, aren’t you？”

While speaking, he quickly chased after and indignantly said： “But there don’t seem to be any other beautiful women here. What do you want me to amuse myself with？”

Yang Kai lightly glanced at him and said: “There should also be brothels in the Battle City. As long as you’re not afraid of being caught, you can naturally go and be dashing!

“Forget it.” Huo Xingchen continuously waved his hand. He chose Yang Kai as an ally in full view of everyone, which was equivalent to already becoming the enemy of others. Now going to a brothel would definitely cause trouble.

“Who wants to find a beautiful woman? See if I’m okay?” Suddenly, a woman’s voice came from the main hall of the residence.

Hearing this voice, Yang Kai couldn’t help but be stunned. Huo Xingchen almost reflexive vely shrank his head and foolishly looked up.

What came into view was a bright and beautiful woman with bright eyes and white teeth, snow-white skin and jade-like bones, wearing a light purple long dress. She walked out gracefully with a smile on her face. When she came close, she straightened her plump breasts and looked at the two of them with a smile.

“Qiu Yimeng？” Huo Xingchen exclaimed in surprise.

“I was wondering who was looking for a beauty, it turns out to be you, this playboy！” Qiu Yimeng looked at Huo Xingchen with a smile. The latter’s expression turned bitter, secretly scolding his bad luck for actually running into her here. Suddenly, he was shocked again, looking at Qiu Yimeng with a face full of horror, as if he had thought of something.

“Why are you here?” Yang Kai frowned.

Today’s matter is really strange. Huo Xingchen became Yang Kai’s ally for no reason and now even Qiu Yimeng has come here.

Isn’t your Qiu family on my sixth brother’s side? Yang Kai frowned and asked.

Qiu Ziruo of the Qiu family was walking with Yang Shen, and at that time, Qiu Shoucheng, the head of the Qiu family, was also on the scene, clearly informing everyone that his Qiu family was the ally of the sixth son, Yang Shen.

Yang Kai didn’t understand why Qiu Yimeng would appear in his mansion, and judging from her appearance, she had been waiting here for a long time.

“The Qiu family is the Qiu family, and I am me！” Qiu Yimeng smiled slightly, raising her smooth chin and said, “What, not welcome？”

“Beauty, you wouldn’t have been expelled from your family by your father, would you？” Huo Xingchen guessed with a hard scalp.

“What do you mean, explain it clearly.” Yang Kai couldn’t figure out the mystery for the moment.

“I’m here to assist you. Isn’t it a battle for the throne？ If you have any doubts, from now on, we’re allies.” Qiu Yimeng smiled charmingly. Seeing Yang Kai’s confusion, she was extremely happy.

Huo Xingchen rolled his eyes and sneered： “Your father is really crafty. He actually bet on two treasures？”

He obviously misunderstood, thinking that the Qiu family not only befriended Yang Shen but also wanted to befriend Yang Kai. However, Huo Xingchen was also full of offeel uncertain and didn’t understand what was so magical about Yang Kai that Qiu family would bet half of their chances on him. He himself had only come to play with Yang Kai because he was looking for excitement, but the Qiu family definitely wasn’t like that.

“I said, the Qiu family is the Qiu family, and I am me.” Qiu Yimeng slowly shook her head. “This time, I don’t represent the Qiu family, only myself.”

Yang Kai’s mind turned rapidly, and he quickly understood a lot of things. He nodded and said： “I see. How many people do you have？”

Qiu Yimeng gave a wry smile: “The people of the Qiu Yu Tang have been brought here by me.”

With a release and retraction of his spiritual sense, he instantly understood the cultivation levels of all the martial artists in the mansion. Yang Kai nodded slightly.

However, Huo Xingchen sneered: “The Qiu Yu Tang?” Does That hall that specifically take in defective items? There seems to be only about twenty people, right?

“That’s right, it’s the hall that takes in defective items!” Qiu Yimeng glared at Huo Xingchen.

The warriors of the Qiu family, as long as they have suffered serious injuries, their strength has declined, and they will never have the hope of improvement for the rest of their lives, will be sent to the Qiuyu Hall to do some easy things. There are only one or two Divine Movement Realm warriors in the entire hall, and their realms are not high.

Qiu Yimeng brought these people here, which is simply not enough to cope with the crisis that will be faced tonight.

“Come and come, it’s always a force.” Yang Kai looked at Qiu Yimeng and nodded with a smile.

Qiu Yimeng pursed her lips and smiled： “I hope you don’t disappoint me！”

“What are you optimistic about？” Huo Xingchen shook his head slightly, not knowing why these two people cared less about this succession battle than himself. He patted his chest and said： “A helper who has no power to use, two blood servants with greatly damaged strength, and now adding a young lady who only brought a group of useless people, this is really a gathering of incompetence. Yang Kai, you are really going to be finished.”
