Chapter 423

In the side hall, not only Qiu Yimeng was puzzled, but also all the others didn’t understand why Yang Kai didn’t take advantage of the situation and pursue.

Now, he should have the qualification to attack Yang Quan.

“Could it be that at this time you still have some brotherly feelings?” Qiu Yimeng sneered. “Don’t forget that last night you were attacked by two of your brothers. When did they ever think of you? The fight for the throne in your Yang family is, to put it bluntly, the law of the jungle, using the blood and bones of the warriors of other families to flatten your path to fame.”

Yang Kai frowned. Although he admitted that what Qiu Yimeng said was the truth, he still didn’t show any reaction.

Qiu Yimeng didn’t seem to notice his expression and continued, “Moreover, even if you don’t attack Yang Quan, sooner or later someone will go to attack him. Instead of this piece of fat falling into the hands of others, it’s better to take hold of it now.”

“Junior Brother must have his reasons for doing this？” Lan Chudie suddenly spoke up, a soft and understanding light flashing in her beautiful eyes.

Qiu Yimeng felt an inexplicable discomfort in her heart and snorted softly, “What reasons？”

“Figure it out yourself. You, Miss Qiu, are so shrewd that you can naturally figure it out.” Yang Kai chuckled.

Qiu Yimeng stared blankly at him, and her slightly fluctuating mood suddenly calmed down. Just now, her tone was so harsh. Firstly, it was because no matter what suggestions she made, Yang Kai had never accepted them, which made her feel a sense of discouragement. Secondly, it was also because Yang Kai had just glanced at Lan Chudie’s chest, which made her very unhappy.

This young lady also has it, just not that big！

Qiu Yimeng is a shrewd and extremely intelligent person, and of course has her own way and train of thought to consider things. After her mood calmed down, her mind quickly turned, examining the intention and stake relationship of Yang Kai not going on the offensive.

Dong Qinghan saw that tense and delicate atmosphere and didn’t dare to interrupt, just remained silent and pretended to be deaf and dumb.

In the side hall, the sound of a needle dropping could be heard. After a long while, Qiu Yimeng’s eyes lit up, she raised her eyelids, looked at Yang Kai with a look, and said with a smile, “I understand.”

“If you understand, then don’t suggest it anymore.” Yang Kai nodded.

“Well. I won’t tell you what to do anymore. I feel like I’m showing off my skills in front of an expert.” Qiu Yimeng pouted, looking so depressed.

“Good girl, it’s better for a woman to be obedient！” Yang Kai gave her a look that said you’re quite sensible.

Dong Qinghan had just taken a sip of water and almost sprayed it out when he heard this. He was choking and coughing continuously, and his admiration for Yang Kai deepened a layer in his heart.

Who would dare to say such a thing to Qiu Yimeng? None of the young masters of the eight great families in Zhongdu had the courage or the qualification. Only his own cousin dared.

What a bold courage！ But unexpectedly, the eldest miss Qiu didn’t refute either.

Lan Chudie listened on the side, feeling confused, but was too embarrassed to ask and couldn’t figure out the deep meaning.

After thinking for a while, the two elders Feng and Yun nodded secretly.

“That… can I ask？” Dong Qinghan’s curiosity flared up. “What riddle are you two playing？”

Qiu Yimeng chuckled and looked at Feng and Yun. “If the two seniors have guessed it, please tell Young Master Dong, so as not to worry your young master.”

Feng and Yun looked at each other, and then Feng Wei coughed lightly and said, “The two of us have only seen one reason. If there is anything wrong, please ask Young Master Kai and Miss Qiu for advice.”

Pausing for a moment, he continued, “Master Kai is currently in the limelight, and none of the remaining seven young masters can match him. On the surface, it is indeed a good time for him to take advantage of the situation and pursue. The other young masters all suffered heavy losses last night, and they have neither the time nor the mood to pay attention to others. As for the eldest young master Yang Wei, since he didn’t make a move last night, it is obvious that he is relying on his status as the eldest and showing some courtesy to his brothers. If Master Kai attacks Yangquan Mansion this time, with the temper of Young Master Yang Wei, he probably won’t make a move in secret either. At most, he will join forces with Master Kai and share the benefits.”

“However, if Master Kai really does this, he will have defeated two Young Masters of the Yang family in a row. In this way, his reputation will naturally become even more resounding, but that resounding reputation will also push him to the forefront. The other five young masters will surely regard Master Kai as their greatest enemy, and maybe they will force those people… to join hands and encircle!

Feng Wei had a horrified expression on his face and said in a deep voice, “A tree that stands out in the forest is bound to be broken by the wind.”

After hearing his words, Dong Qinghan and Lan Chudie suddenly understood, and only then did they realize why Yang Kai didn’t agree to Qiu Yimeng’s proposal.

Feng Wei’s analysis was meticulous and thorough, and it was indeed very likely… no, it was bound to happen.

If the other Young Masters of the Yang family were really forced to join hands, Yang Kai’s days would be difficult.

Showing off one’s prowess is okay to do once, but doing it twice will only have the opposite effect.

For a moment, Dong Qinghan felt a sense of sympathy and secretly rejoiced that he wasn’t born in the Yang family. If he were really born in the Yang family and had a sinister person like Yang Kai as his opponent he might not even know how he failed.

Feng Yun slowly shook his head again: “The old man can only see this one reason, but I think Young Master Kai must have other reasons. Can Young Master Kai enlighten the old man a little

Isn’t it this one reason enough? Dong Qinghan was astonished. Just this one reason was enough to make Yang Kai hold his ground.

Yang Kai smiled slightly： “There are indeed other reasons, but it’s not easy for me to say them now. If I said them, people would only think I’m too arrogant. It will be clear in a few days.”

Feng Wei nodded slightly： “Since Young Master Kai has difficulties, then I won’t force it. Let’s just wait and see.”

Qiu Yimeng sighed: “I’m getting more and more unable to understand you.”

Even she couldn’t see what the second reason for Yang Kai not to attack was, and perhaps there was a third reason as well.

While the group was talking, Xiang Tianxiao walked in with a majestic and confident gait his expression solemn. He clenched his fists and saluted and said: “Young Master Kai, someone has come to seek refuge.”

Didn’t I say that those I don’t know are not to be accepted? Yang Kai frowned (frowned).

“The person said he knows you,” Xiang Tianxiao replied.

“Which family is from?” Yang Kai was immediately a little surprised.

“The Lu family.”

Yang Kai and Qiu Yimeng looked at each other and smiled, both knowing that Lu Liang had sent someone.

“Since they’re here, then let them in.” Yang Kai instructed. Not considering the monk, one has to consider the Buddha. The Lu family must have come to give gifts.

Xiang Tianxiao answered and went out to greet them.

After a while, Lu Song led two Divine Movement Realm Layer 7 powerhouses and swaggered in.

Lu Song truly didn’t want to give the supplies he brought to Yang Kai. In his opinion, Yang Kai must be a crafty and deceitful person. Otherwise, how could he have extorted the wealth of his Lu family？

He had never seen such a shameless person！

If possible, he would definitely have taken this batch of supplies and gone to other Yang family disciples. But after Yang Kai’s strange performance last night spread, Lu Song immediately realized that it was impossible not to send the things over.

Not to mention that Lu Liang had instructed that no matter how Yang Kai performed in the succession battle, the things had to be given to him. Moreover, his performance was not just ordinary brave.

If this batch of things was privately given to someone else by him, he would definitely be given a family punishment when he returned.

This time, not only did he have to give gifts, but also bring people to be Yang Kai’s thugs. The more Lu Song thought about it, the more disgusted he felt. The Lu family had dispatched quite a few people this time. The two Divine Movement Realm Layer 7 powerhouses served as Lu Song’s protectors, one Divine Movement Realm Layer 4, two Divine Movement Realm Layer 3, and there were also twenty True Yuan Realm martial artists.

Such a powerful force, if it were to defect to any young master, would surely be welcomed into the mansion. But this Yang Kai is really arrogant. He actually sent a subordinate to lead me in without any intention of greeting me.

Lu Song was full of anger.

When he walked in, his expression remained normal. But when he saw Qiu Yimeng, he quickly stepped forward and said, “Lu Song greets his cousin.”

Qiu Yimeng nodded slightly： “Well, you’ve had a hard journey.”

Lu Song smiled： “It’s not hard. I just came to deliver some things. It’s nothing.”

As he spoke, he scanned the crowd and asked, “Which one is Young Master Kai？”

Yang Kai nodded： “I am！”

Lu Song’s gaze turned towards him, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly as he said with a light smile, “I’ve long admired Young Master Kai’s great name.”

Qiu Yimeng heard this and couldn’t help but frown slightly. Lu Song’s tone carried a hint of provocation.

Yang Kai’s expression remained calm, and he didn’t pay attention. He just said, “Master Lu has spent a lot.”

He himself blackmailed Lu Liang, so it would be strange if this Young Master Lu was in a good mood. Therefore, Yang Kai had no intention of arguing with him. After all, what he did was a bit unethical, but there was also a reason for it.

Lyu Song didn’t expect Yang Kai’s performance to be so plain and didn’t have the nerve to show any more unfriendly expressions. He said, “Before coming, my father ordered that after the things are delivered to Young Master Kai, the people I brought will be at Young Master Kai’s disposal. I hope they can help Young Master Kai in the battle for the throne.”

“I see.” Yang Kai nodded. “Since that’s the case, then you can do as you please. The mansion is very big. Let Qiu Yimeng help you arrange a courtyard to rest. If there is anything, I will call you.”

Regarding the change in the attitude of Lyu Family’s head, Lyu Liang, Yang Kai didn’t show any surprise either. However, for this group of people from the Lyu Family, he didn’t take them too seriously.

If he guessed correctly, this group of people including Lyu Song should have already arrived in Zhan City. They didn’t show up yesterday and only came today. Obviously, they were waiting to see if he would be eliminated last night.

Whether this guess is correct or not still has to be inquired about from the people of the Zhujie Gang.

For such an ally who came late, Yang Kai naturally wouldn’t treat them the same as the Dong Family and Qiu Yimeng.

Qiu Yimeng smiled and was about to arrange for Lyu Song and the others when Xiang Tianxiao actually ran in again and said, “Young Master Kai, there are more people…”

“Which family？”

“Ziwei Valley！”

Qiu Yimeng’s eyes lit up and she said in surprise, “It’s Xiaoman leading people here.”

While speaking, he quickly came to Yang Kai’s front and said in a low voice, “It’s not that Xiaoman didn’t want to help you yesterday. You also know that she is a girl. Although she has some status in Purple Bamboo Valley, she has no decision-making power when it comes to key matters. The fact that she can bring people here today must have cost her a lot of effort. You have to thank her well.”
