They were thrown to the ground and confused. They didn't know what had happened. They were either bitten or scratched by the White Jade Lion Dragon. Their shrill screams pierced through the night sky.
Xia Yuxuan and the others were also startled awake. Because they were worried about Tuoba Ye, they all went to the backyard.
When they saw the White Jade Lion Dragon's attack, they were a little afraid.
"Xiao Ye, are you alright?" Xia Yuxuan asked.
"Mother, you guys go and rest. I can handle these little thieves.”Tuoba Ye said.
"Alright then, be careful.”Xia Yuxuan couldn't bear to watch.
These people wanted to harm Treasure Trove Pavilion, so she couldn't persuade Tuoba Ye to stop, right? Since that was the case, it was better not to see them.
After Xia Yuxuan left, Tuoba Ye ordered the White Jade Lion Dragon and the others to tear those people apart, not wanting to take their lives.
"Young Master, please spare my life!"
"Young Master, please spare us!"
……
Those people began to beg for mercy. It was really a tragic sight.
"Speak! Who ordered it?" Tuoba Ye said coldly.
"Young master, we were all called over at night, so we couldn't even see who it was. That person gave each of us 100 gold coins to cause trouble at Treasure Trove Pavilion and make it impossible for Treasure Trove Pavilion to open for business, so we can still get 200 gold coins.”
"That's right, Young Master, we really couldn't see that person's appearance clearly.”
……
Tuoba Ye knew that they weren't lying, so he couldn't get anything out of them.
Zhan Meng quickly threw all the people outside in. There were a total of 50 people in the backyard. Their cultivation levels were not bad. They were all Pre-Sky Realm martial artists, ranging from three-star to five-star.
The people in the backyard felt their hair stand on end when they were stared at by the White Jade Lion Dragon. Not a single one of these experts was unscathed. They were extremely afraid of the White Jade Lion Dragon.
"White Jade Lion Dragon, keep an eye on them. Zhan Meng, let's go to the front yard to take a look.”Tuoba Ye said.
When they arrived at the front yard, they saw many people lying on the ground. They were all heavily injured.
"Young Master, we have captured a total of sixty-eight experts.”Dragon One said.
"Take them all to the backyard and let the White Jade Lion Dragon take good care of them.”Tuoba Ye said coldly.
Toward these people, Tuoba Ye was extremely cold-blooded. He would first make them suffer before anything else.
Screams soon came from the backyard and lasted for a long time. The surrounding people probably heard it.
The sixty-eight experts were all covered in injuries and could not stand up.
"Young Master, how should we deal with these people?”Dragon One asked.
"Eight Dragon Guards, parade them through the streets of Shen 'du tomorrow and hand them over to the relevant departments," said Tuoba Ye.”
"Yes, sir! Young Master!"
The next day, the Eight Dragon Guards led more than a hundred people covered in wounds and began to parade through the streets, attracting the attention of many people.
"What did these people do? His body was covered in scratch marks and blood. It was really miserable!”
"More than a hundred people were tortured. Who did it?”
……
Dragon One saw that there were more onlookers and said loudly,""We are the guards of Treasure Trove Pavilion. These people barged into Treasure Trove Pavilion last night and even tried to set it on fire. We're taking them to the authorities in hopes of finding the mastermind behind this.”
"So that's how it is. Our house isn't far from Treasure Trove Pavilion, and we heard screams coming from the direction of Treasure Trove Pavilion.”
"These wounds don't seem to be man-made. I'm afraid they were caused by magical beasts.”
……
The Qian family also saw it. They went home and reported it to Qian Duoduo.
Qian Duoduo was furious. Immediately send someone to offer a reward, they must make Treasure Trove Pavilion close down.”
The people from the Qian family kept quiet and were a little afraid.
"Hurry up and go!"
"Patriarch, I'll do it immediately!"
Not to mention the Qian Clan, Dragon One and the others had been explaining loudly along the way, which made those people even more unforgivable. Setting fire in Fairy's Capital was simply asking for a beating.
Many people threw the vegetables in their hands at those people's bodies and faces. As they threw them, they cursed.
They walked all the way to the Shen 'du yamen, and the Eight Dragon Guards explained the situation before leaving.
Those people were covered in injuries and had to be locked up. It was really tragic.
Even if the experts from the Shen 'du yamen saw those people's miserable state, I wouldn't dare to look at them.
"It's really too tragic!"
"It's said that Treasure Trove Pavilion has raised many magical beasts, these people are really courting death.”
……
Treasure Trove Pavilion's actions this time had caused an uproar, and even the Emperor knew about it.
"Xia Yuxuan and Tuoba Ye are an orphan and widowed, and they were chased out of the Tuoba Family. Yet, they were able to establish Treasure Trove Pavilion, and their business is extremely prosperous.”The Emperor smiled. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Emperor, are you really going to marry Yu 'er to Tuoba Ye? The Tuoba family is already divided. Without Tuoba Xiong, the Tuoba family is nothing. Is there a need for us to rope them in?”Yuwen Wenyi said.
The Emperor coldly said,"You don't need to care about this matter. Let Yu 'er go to Treasure Trove Pavilion, at least show her concern."”
"Yes, sir! Your Majesty!" Although Yuwen Wenyi was unwilling, she did not dare to disobey the order.
The next day, Situ Yu-er arrived at Treasure Trove Pavilion and caused another commotion.
Everyone knew that Situ Yu 'er was Tuoba Ye's fiancée and they were engaged.
However, Tuoba Ye had been chased out of the family, and everyone was guessing that the Emperor was going to break off the engagement.
Now that Situ Yu-er had appeared, they had other thoughts.
Tuoba Ye was cultivating when he was pulled out by Xia Yuxuan."Xiao Ye, Princess Purple Jade is here.”
"I'm not going, Mother. You can go by yourself." Tuoba Ye did not want to see Situ Yu 'er because he was not interested in the little loli.
Even a beautiful little loli was not attractive to him.
"No! You have to welcome them personally. They have come to visit us. We can't lose our manners.”Xia Yuxuan was extremely determined.
Tuoba Ye had no choice but to follow Xia Yuxuan out to welcome them.
"Greetings, Princess Ziyu!"
Tuoba Ye did not bow like before.
He really couldn't kneel down to Situ Yu 'er.
"Princess Purple Jade, Xiao Ye is too young and doesn't know etiquette. Please forgive him!”Xia Yuxuan tugged at Tuoba Ye a few times, but she did not make him kneel down. She could only say this.
"Aunty Xia, I'm here in my personal capacity. There's no need to be so polite." Princess Ziyu raised her head.”
"Princess Purple Jade, please come in!" Xia Yuxuan quickly went in to welcome him.
At this time, Treasure Trove Pavilion had already opened for business. Business was extremely brisk, and the bluestone path in the front yard was already filled with stalls. The houses on both sides were also filled with people coming and going, all of them here to trade.
Xia Yuxuan personally led the way and brought Princess Ziyu to the main courtyard.
"Princess Purple Jade, did you come here for something?”Xia Yuxuan asked.
"Aunt Xia, when my father learned that someone had climbed over the wall and set fire to Treasure Trove Pavilion, he sent me to express his condolences.”Princess Purple Jade said.
"Princess Ziyu," Xia Yuxuan said with a smile,"I'll definitely convey my gratitude to the Emperor for his concern."”
She did not have anything in common with Princess Purple Jade. She continued,"Xiao Ye, take Princess Purple Jade to the backyard for a walk. Princess Purple Jade, Treasure Trove Pavilion has many Southern Wasteland specialties. If you like them, you can choose a few as my gift to you.”
Tuoba Ye said,"What's there to see in the backyard? The Imperial Palace is much better than this place."”
Princess Ziyu frowned slightly." I heard from my father that the backyard of this manor is very beautiful. I want to take a look."”
"Xiao Ye, bring Princess Purple Jade to the backyard. I still have to manage the business, so I won't accompany you.”Xia Yuxuan wanted to give Tuoba Ye and Situ Yuer some time alone.
Tuoba Ye was helpless. He could only bring Princess Purple Jade to the backyard.
"So many fresh flowers, so beautiful!" Women loved beauty, and the little girl was no exception.
Princess Purple Jade became extremely lively. She weaved through the flowers and danced elegantly.
It was just that it was too small, Tuoba Ye couldn't even be bothered to look at it.
"Ah!" Suddenly, Princess Purple Jade screamed. She was shocked when she saw the White Jade Lion Dragon.
"What's wrong?" Tuoba Ye hurriedly asked.
If something happened to Princess Purple Jade in Treasure Trove Pavilion, then Treasure Trove Pavilion would be in trouble.
Princess Purple Jade calmed down." I'm fine. What a beautiful magical beast!"”
Tuoba Ye didn't reply, afraid that Princess Purple Jade would take advantage of the situation and ask for the White Jade Lion Dragon.
Princess Purple Jade saw Tuoba Ye's expression and knew that he would not give up the White Jade Lion Dragon. She immediately changed her tone,""What's so great about it? It's far inferior to my magical pets.”
Tuoba Ye couldn't be bothered with them. He turned around to look at the others and pretended not to hear anything.
The more he behaved like this, the more curious and interested Princess Purple Jade was in him.
"Xiao Ye, I'll be leaving first. I'll come and see you again in the future.”Before Princess Zi Yu left, she even wiped Tuoba Ye's smooth face.
Tuoba Ye was extremely depressed. He had been taken advantage of by the little loli. He felt helpless as he watched Princess Purple Jade leave. If he was really a child, he might really like Princess Purple Jade. Unfortunately, he had adult memories.
Princess Purple Jade left. Tuoba Ye heaved a sigh of relief and continued to cultivate.
To him, cultivation was the number one priority.
Moreover, he knew very well that the mastermind behind this would not give up so easily. An additional strength meant an additional ability to protect himself.
At night, Tuoba Ye had the Eight Dragon Guards split into two groups and guard Xia Yuxuan's house.
He did this just in case.
For a whole month, nothing happened to Treasure Trove Pavilion.
"Xiao Ye, it's been a long time, and nothing has happened. Let the Eight Dragon Guards cultivate. There's no need to protect us.”Xia Yuxuan said.
"Mother, you don't have to do this. I'll arrange it.”Tuoba Ye didn't listen to his mother's opinion.
The Eight Dragon Guards were still standing guard outside Xia Yuxuan's room. If someone wanted to kill Xia Yuxuan, they could hold them off for a while.
Tuoba Ye and the others were at the training grounds, which were very close to the rooms in the main courtyard.
Treasure Trove Pavilion was very large, but there weren't many experts. However, there were quite a number of Innate Martial God experts. The five female slaves that Xia Yuxuan had bought previously were all One-star Innate Martial God Realm warriors. The rooms that they lived in protected Xia Yuxuan's room.
With such an arrangement, Tuoba Ye still felt uneasy, as if something was about to happen.
