"Father! Look, there's someone in the river!"
"Don't be a busybody. We should hurry on our way. It's not convenient to care about unrelated matters.”A middle-aged man in his forties asked.
The man was dressed luxuriously and had a tall and sturdy figure. However, there was a deep look of disappointment on his face and his brows were deeply furrowed…
"Oh…!" Daddy might still be alive…"
A young man who was about 11 or 12 years old, with bright eyebrows and starry eyes, a fair complexion, and a relatively handsome youth continued to speak.
"Shun 'er! It's not that I don't want to save you. I know you're kind-hearted, but we can't even protect ourselves now. If the enemy catches up, I'm afraid we'll be doomed!
If we bring him along, won't he suffer with us? Moreover, he didn't even know if he was dead or alive.”
"Dad, didn't you say that we would be safe once we reached cousin's house? Uncle will ensure our safety.
At that time, wouldn't we not have to fear our enemies? Wouldn't there be no danger if she brought him along?”
"Sigh…!" The middle-aged man sighed heavily and looked at the youth with a face full of love and helplessness.
"Alright then! Saving a life is better than building a seven-storied pagoda. If he's alive, we'll bring him along. If he's dead, then forget it…"
"Good!" The young man replied happily.
"Men! Get the person in the river onto the boat."
"Yes, boss…"
"Boss, this person is still alive, but he only has one breath left!
He looks like a beggar. He's emaciated and doesn't have any meat on him. He's as thin as a stick. He's been in the water for so long, and his face is pale. He's probably dying…"
" Put him in the cabin and let him recuperate. Then, sail at full speed. Faster, the faster, the better…"
" Don't worry, Boss. The messenger eagle just reported that the mountain upstream has collapsed and blocked the river. At this moment, boats can't pass through. I don't think the Lian family will be able to catch up…"
"Oh…? The heavens really didn't want me to die!
" Hahaha…" Alright! It seems like this beggar is the benefactor of my Wei family. Saving his life and bringing me such good news! " Hahaha…" Not bad…Not bad…"
The Cloudbillow Continent was a continent in the western part of the Fire Cloud Empire. It was close to the eastern foot of the Fire Cloud Mountain and was also the location of the world-famous Fire Cloud Sect. It was only a thousand miles away…
The Cloudbillow Continent was rich in natural resources, with many aristocratic families and countless experts. There were also countless aristocratic families that were related to the imperial family of the empire.
It could be considered one of the best continents in the Fire Cloud Empire. Its richness could also be ranked in the top five in the Fire Cloud Empire.
"Boss! We've arrived at the Cloudbillow City of the Cloudbillow Continent…"
"We're finally here! "Phew…!"
"Didn't Auntie say that she would arrange for someone to pick us up? Why isn't there anyone?"
"Sigh…! Forget it! Let's go directly."
The Lian Yuncang family in the Cloudbillow City of the Cloudbillow Continent was a famous and wealthy family in the Cloudbillow City. The family head was Lian Yuntuo. He was overbearing and arrogant.
Because his sister, Lian Yunlan, had some beauty, she was taken in as a concubine by City Lord Lian Yunhong. Lian Yuncang's family used the power of the City Lord to commit all kinds of evil and ruthless acts in Cloudbillow City. They plundered the people's wealth to pay tribute to the City Lord's Estate, and became the City Lord's Estate's loyal lackeys.
Lian Yuncang's family originally didn't have the surname 'Lianyun', but because of his sister, in order to curry favor with the City Lord's Estate, he changed his surname to' Lianyun'. He pledged his loyalty to the City Lord's Estate.
Lian Yuntuo's original name was Cang Tuo. He was originally a servant of Lian Yunhong. The city lord, Lian Yunhong, was the distant cousin of the thirty-sixth concubine of the current ruler of the Fire Cloud Empire, Lian Yunba. Therefore, Lian Yunhong was also powerful in the Cloudwave Continent. He was above everyone else.
"Old Master, we've arrived at the Cang Family!" the servant said.
"Who are you looking for?" The servant at the door raised his voice and asked impatiently.
"May I ask if Lian Yuntuo…"
"How dare you! Is my lord's name something you can call?”Before he could finish speaking, the servant loudly scolded.
"You…"
"Wait, Shun 'er! Hello! "Lao Fan, report to him that Fire Cloud City's Wei Huang wishes to see your master."”
"That's more like it! However…" The servant narrowed his eyes and slowly rubbed his fingers…
Seeing this, Wei Huang took out two gold ingots from his waist and placed them in the hands of the servant boy…Please work hard, little brother!
"Tsk! Just two…"
The manservant spat softly. He did not look at the gold ingot and slowly walked into the manor. After about an hour, he was nowhere to be seen…
"Father! Why didn't you let me scold that dog slave? What a condescending thing!
We have been waiting outside the door for an hour, but why is there no one?”The young man said angrily.
"Sigh…!" Shun 'er! When one was under the eaves, one had no choice but to lower one's head.
We are here to beg him. As long as he can protect you and our family, what is this grievance? Wait a little longer…"
"Remember! Shun 'er, when you see your cousin and uncle, as well as those cousins, you must be polite, understand?”
The young man turned his head away angrily…
"Aiyo! Cousin! Biao Younger Sister has finally waited for you to come!"
Before the door opened, a middle-aged woman's voice could be heard from inside.
The door of the manor slowly opened, and a middle-aged woman dressed elegantly and luxuriously walked in with light steps…
"Cousin! What took you so long? He made his cousin and brother-in-law wait anxiously!
I originally asked my brother-in-law to personally pick you up at the dock, but the City Lord had something to do at the last minute and was called over. He has not returned yet.
I'm a woman and it's not convenient for me to go out, so I didn't pick you up. Cousin, don't blame me.”The woman said apologetically.
"Biao Younger Sister is too polite! Thanks to Biao Younger Sister and Brother-in-law's care and protection, I will still have to trouble you in the future, how can I blame you!
This is a high-grade rouge from Fire Cloud City. It's specially used by the royal family. Please don't mind it, cousin…"
"Aiyo! Cousin! Where did the family get so much courtesy? He even brought gifts! Biao Younger Sister is flattered!"
As the woman spoke, she hurriedly put away the gift and handed it to the servant girl beside her.
"Cousin! Please, please…"
"Thank you, cousin…"
"Yo! This must be Shun 'er! You've grown so big. You're so handsome!
"Sigh…!" It's just that my sister-in-law has suffered. She's really a beautiful woman with a bad life!”The woman wiped the corners of her eyes sadly, but there was not a single tear. There seemed to be an undetectable arc at the corner of her mouth.
"Alright! Alright! Alright, please come in…
I thought you had cleaned the room and prepared food and wine.”
"Thank you, Biao Younger Sister, Biao Younger Sister has put in so much effort…"
As soon as she turned around, the woman seemed to have sensed something!
"Cousin, what is this? Dead people? This, this, this…this can't be carried into the residence!”
"Oh! Cousin, it's like this! I fished him up from the river. Seeing that he was still breathing, I decided to save his life, so he followed us all the way here.”
"Aiyo! Cousin! You're really a good person, alright! Take care of it yourself." The woman said in a strange tone. She flung her sleeves and went in…
Wei Huang's family and a few servants then entered…
Entering the residence, there were pavilions, golden splendor, small bridges, flowing water, birds chirping and flowers fragrance…
The mansion was built in a dignified manner and occupied a large area. There were thousands of pavilions, a martial arts field, a refining room, a martial arts building, a weapon pavilion, a meeting room, a reception room, and a incense shop.
5,000 male servants, 8,000 female servants, 3,000 guards…There were also thousands of disciples in the Cang Family. Among them, 700 were male disciples and 500 were female disciples. They were all descendants of the Cang Family…
"Little Six! Arrange for them to settle down in the West Mansion District and the East Wing!”The woman said impatiently.
She turned around and smiled like a peach blossom. You have worked hard on the journey and are tired from the journey. Rest for the night. When my brother-in-law comes back tomorrow, I will bring him to greet cousin.”
"Biao Younger Sister is too polite! When my brother-in-law comes back, I will definitely go to see him in time. Why bother my brother-in-law to go personally?
Look, these are my gifts for brother-in-law. The rest are some small gifts for my nephews and nieces. I hope sister will accept them…"
"Aiyo! He had already given his sister a gift just now, so why did he have to trouble his brother to remember his children? He had really let his sister be doted on!”The woman smiled like a flower as she spoke.
"Little sister is too polite! These are just some small gifts. I'm already extremely honored to be able to enter the eyes of younger sister, brother-in-law, and nephew. I hope younger sister won't reject them…"
"Thank you, cousin! Thank you for your trouble, cousin. I have asked the servants to prepare dinner. Cousin, rest early after you have finished eating.”The woman's smile was as warm as the sun…
"Good! I'll have to trouble Biao Younger Sister!" Wei Huang cupped his hands and the group followed the servant to the West Mansion…
The woman turned around, and her smile turned cold and sinister.
This woman's name was Li Qing, Wei Huang's distant cousin. She was extremely beautiful, ruthless, sinister, and cunning…
