Chapter 51.1
Li Tianyan lifted the tea cup and brought it to his mouth. Hearing Cheng Qi’s words, he felt inexplicably happy but said, “The number one position is of no use to me, so let’s give it to others.”
“An unknown person from Jincheng actually dares to talk so shamelessly here,” Jiang Xiuhao, passing by the two people, overheard the conversation, stopped, and said with an unkind expression.@@@@
“Those two actually offended Young Master Jiang. How unlucky they are.” Everyone in the teahouse turned their heads upon hearing the commotion.
“Who let them be overconfident? Two individuals who aren’t even considered warriors claim they can take the first place.”
“If it was someone else and they wouldn’t bother to give him a look, it’s his bad luck. Unexpectedly, he met Jiang Xiuhao.”
“Why is it him again?” Shang Xiyue, entering the teahouse, recognized the man he saw at the city gate yesterday.
“Xiaoyue? Who is it again?” Shang Ruifeng, arriving later, heard his brother’s words and glanced around curiously.
“That’s the scoundrel who looked at me yesterday,” Shang Xiyue said with a steady expression.
Shang Ruifeng frowned upon following his brother’s gaze and seeing Jiang Xiuhao instructing his men to attack the young man sitting by the window.
If he witnessed warriors bullying ordinary people, Shang Ruifeng would not stand idly by. But today, he crossed his arms, not stepping forward to stop the situation, realizing the other party did not need help.
.
Jiang Xiuhao originally intended to teach this arrogant individual a lesson. However, upon witnessing his subordinates at the sixth level of acquired warrior being taunted with no means of retaliation, he quickly realized that this individual was no ordinary person. Instead, he was a warrior concealing his true strength, fueling Jiang Xiuhao’s immediate anger. He called upon another attendant behind him.
Observing the fourth brother’s demeanor, Shang Xiyue couldn’t help but glance at the man again. Apart from disgust, a hint of curiosity appeared in Shang Xiyue’s eyes.
“Young master, do you know that shuanger?” Cheng Qi inquired curiously once the two had left.
Despite half of his face being covered with a soft veil, Cheng Qi could see it was an exceptionally beautiful shuanger, felt a sense of unease.
Li Tianyan: “...”. Could he admit that he saw a man wearing a veil for the first time yesterday, leading to a curious second glance?
However, Li Tianyan hadn’t expected to be mistaken for a wastrel, so he chuckled awkwardly, picking up the tea cup to mask his embarrassment.
As soon as the Shang brothers departed, the teahouse buzzed with praise for the fourth young master of the Shang family. Some quietly discussed Shang Xiyue, but he seemed indifferent to others mentioning him, described as enigmatic by everyone.
“Li Tianyan is indeed extraordinary. He has caught the attention of the Shang family’s young master. If he agrees to join the battle, the Li family might truly have a chance. Cousin, do you want to approach him?” Hong Wenxuan suggested to Li Tianzhou after Shang Ruifeng went upstairs.
Hong Wenxuan, the eldest son of the Hong family, was twenty-four years old and a seventh-level warrior like Li Tianzhou. The Hong family had also joined the battle, and to gather information about Yuncheng, Hong Wenxuan had scheduled a morning meeting at the Yage teahouse. Unexpectedly, he witnessed this intriguing scene.
“Let’s talk about it later,” Li Tianzhou glanced in the direction of Li Tianyan through the screen and said calmly but sighed with extremely complicated feelings in his heart.
Li Tianyan had known about Li Tianzhou’s existence for a long time, and he didn’t take it seriously when he heard the conversation between the two. He sat in the teahouse for a while and received a lot of information about the Yuncheng aristocratic families. Soon, Li Tianyan captured something important.
It turned out that the rules of this battle were first proposed by the Hou family, who was as famous as the Shang family. The city master felt that this proposal was a fair competition, letting the younger generation compete to reduce friction between the families. These talents were the backbone of Yuncheng’s future, so it was finally decided.
In addition to the battle for the aristocratic families, Li Tianyan also noticed the Yunpeng Secret Realm that people often mentioned. Was there really any secret realm in Yuncheng? It was a pity that no one talked about this secret realm in detail. Maybe he could ask the young master of the Guan family next time.
