Chapter 1: The Yang Family's Trash
Two days later, Cao Siya had already blended into her new identity, and her cultivation progress was rapid. In just two short days, she had already reached the second stage of martial arts, a speed that made Yang Lue somewhat jealous.
But for the past two days, that second gold medal killer hasn't come either. However, Yang Wei didn't dare to be careless and was always on high alert, in case he let his guard down for a moment and lost his life, which would be unlucky.
Yang Lei was carving a wooden sculpture in the courtyard when he heard Zhao Yuan's voice.
"Older brother, how do you have time to come here today? Is it what I wanted that has been obtained?" Yang Lei said, he was clear that Zhao Yuan, as the manager of Changfeng Business Firm, had many things to attend to and was usually busy, especially in these days when the Fengyun Selection was about to begin, and the flow of people in the capital city had increased, so naturally there were more things to do. So Zhao Yuan's arrival made Yang Lei feel somewhat unexpected.
"Look what you're saying, can't I just come over for no reason?" Zhao Yuan then took out a few boxes of tea leaves, the boxes were made of jade, and also brought out a storage ring.
The tea wasn't ordinary tea leaves, but that Biyu tea. Yang Lei was clear about this point. And in the storage ring, there should be the jade stone and those low-level techniques he needed.
"This is what you wanted."
"Thanks a lot this time, Zhao."
Yang Lei transferred the things inside the storage ring into his own ring and then returned the ring to Zhao Yuan.
"It's just a small matter." Zhao Yuan shook his head and said.
"It may be a small matter for you, brother, but it's a big deal for me." Yang Lei said with a smile.
"Let's not mention that for now, little brother. This time I've come, apart from giving you some things, there's also something I need your help with." Zhao Yuan said seriously as he looked at Yang Yue.
Seeing him like this, Yang Lei nodded and said: "What's the matter, big brother? Just say it. As long as I can do it, I'll definitely help."
"My father wants to meet you, if little brother has time." Zhao Yuan looked at Yang Lei.
It can be seen from his eyes that he hopes to respond, if not for something, Yang Lei knows that he will not mention it so rashly. After all, at the beginning, he said not to tell others about his own affairs. It seems that Zhao Yuan has encountered difficulties this time.
"Alright, when?" Yang Wei nodded and said that to be honest, Zhao Yuan was the first friend Yang Wei had made since arriving in Chongwu Continent, so he still cared about this feeling.
"As soon as possible, preferably tonight if it can be done." Zhao Yuan said.
Yang Lei nodded, "Alright then, come pick me up tonight."
"Thanks, Young Brother Yang." Zhao Yuan said excitedly.
Looking at Zhao Yuan's expression, Yang Lei couldn't help but feel curious. What had happened to him? Had some powerful figure found him and needed his Ten Completion Dan? Or was it about the method of refining it? Or was there something else going on?
"Zhao, you're really in a bad situation, and I still owe you for taking care of me. Yang Lei smiled and said, "I don't know what kind of trouble you've encountered, if it's convenient, tell me about it, maybe I can help."
Zhao Yuan sighed and said, "Actually, it's also a matter of internal power struggle within the Changfeng Chamber of Commerce. The president is old and will eventually leave, so we need to choose a successor. Naturally, the chosen successor needs to be the person who has made the greatest contribution and help to the Changfeng Chamber of Commerce, and the person who is most beneficial and has the most potential for the future development of the Changfeng Chamber of Commerce."
"Could it be that Big Brother wants to compete for the position of President of Changfeng Chamber of Commerce? Plans to manage Changfeng Chamber of Commerce? This is a good thing." Yang Lei said, "If you need me to do something, just say so directly. As long as I'm not exposed, there's no problem. If you need dan medicine, I can try to refine more. Even if you need talismans, I can provide them."
Zhaoyuan Dao shook his head: "It's not that I want to compete with the president of Changfeng Chamber of Commerce, but my father. In fact, this is also a helpless situation. If I don't fight for it, they will make their move, and in the end, my father and son will have no good ending, so we can't help but fight."
Zhao Yuan's tone revealed a sense of helplessness. Yang Lei was also aware of these things. A business as large as this, with such a huge organization, everyone wants to take control. Once you become the person in charge of the business, everything is yours: power, wealth, beautiful women, and so on. All these things are within reach.
However, the competition in this process is also cruel and bloody. Some people will stop at nothing to achieve their goals, as the saying goes: "one general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand soldiers." This is not only true on the battlefield, but also in family struggles and business competitions. The rise of every power is built on the blood and bones of others.
"So your father came to see me this time for Dan medicine?"
Yang Lei couldn't think of anything that would make Zhao Yuan's father pay attention to him, except for the Dan medicine. After all, in the Chongwu continent, there was only one person who could refine a 10% Dan.
Zhao Yuan nodded: "My father plans to cooperate with you and needs a large amount of elixir."
"Master, someone is looking for you." At this time, Xia Zhu walked over and whispered in his ear.
Yang Lei nodded and then said to Zhao Yuan: "Sorry, Brother Zhao, I have something to attend to, I'll be right back."
"You go ahead and busy yourself, I'll leave first, I'll come over again tonight." Zhao Yuan also stood up.
"Xia Zhu, go see off older brother."
Yang Lei called out and left first, at this time the person who came to find Yang Lei was not someone else, but Zi Er, Yang Yue's personal maid. Generally speaking, if his second sister Yang Yue had something to discuss with him, she would come in person, but this time she actually sent a maid over. Now she must have been busy with something or encountered some problem, that's why she let her maid come over.
"Nice to meet you, Third Master." Zi'er greeted Yang Lei with a slight bow.
"No need for formalities, Second Sister called you here, what's going on?" Yang Lei asked directly, with some concern in his heart.
"Miss asked me to come and call Third Young Master, you go back to Weiwu Wangfu for a trip now." Zi'er said.
"What's going on, did something happen to Second Sister? Let's walk and talk." Yang Lei was still very worried about his second sister, not wanting anything to happen to her from the bottom of his heart.
Zi'er nodded and walked ahead, saying as she went: "It's like this, several women came to the Weiwu Wangfu, their cultivation is very good, they said they want to invite Miss to be the master of something called the Bishui Palace."
Bishui Palace, Yang Lei furrowed his brow. Could it be because Second Sister had obtained the inheritance of that senior's transmission? He recalled that at Ming Shui Lake, Second Sister Yang Yue had received the inheritance of the Bishui Xianzi Biyan Water. It seemed that things should have been like this. However, what Yang Lei didn't understand was why the other party would know that Second Sister had accepted the inheritance. This was strange, but these doubts would naturally be cleared up later.
Ten minutes later, Yang Lei stepped into the Weiwu Wangfu again.
Entering the grand courtyard of the Weiwu Wangfu, there were five people. Sitting in the upper position was her second sister Yang Yue, while sitting below were four women with their faces veiled.
Yang Lei performed an appraisal technique and was shocked to find that the four of them couldn't be appraised, which meant that their cultivation was immeasurable, absolutely above the level of a Martial God. After all, Yang Lei's own appraisal technique had already reached a high level, and except for those above the Martial God level, everyone else could be appraised. Of course, if the other party had a special treasure that could conceal their aura, that would be an exception, but such a treasure would have to be at least a top-grade spiritual artifact, or a ninth-grade treasure or higher, otherwise it wouldn't be possible.
But if one has a treasure that conceals their aura, Yang Lei's true eagle eye can see right through it, so even having a treasure that can hide one's aura is useless. This means that the four people in front of him are absolutely stronger than the Martial God.
"Little brother, you're here. Come sit over here." Yang Yue's face lit up with a delighted smile as she saw Yang Lei arrive, and she pulled him into the seat beside her.
"Second sister, what's going on with them?" Yang Wei asked in a low voice.
Yang Yue said in a low voice: "They are the elders of Bishui Palace, and this time they have come to take me to Bishui Palace to succeed as the master of Bishui Palace."
Yang Lei continued: "Biqiushui Palace was founded by Senior Biqiushui?"
Yang Yue nodded slightly.
"So you mean agree or disagree?" Yang Lei said softly.
"I don't know... I think I want to leave Qianyuan Country." Yang Yue said in a low voice.
At this time, the woman sitting in the front row stood up and looked at Yang Lei: "You are Yang Lei, the younger brother of our palace master, right?"
"I am." Yang Lei nodded.
Yang Lei also guessed some, estimating that his second sister couldn't make up her mind, so she let him come back, and another was that these four elders had to take away Yang Yue, but it wasn't good to use force, so they could only use himself as a breakthrough, hoping to persuade Yang Yue. However, towards these four people, Yang Lei still had a suspicious attitude, who knew whether they were not harboring evil intentions, wanting to deprive his second sister of her inheritance? This was also possible.
"We four sisters are the elders of Bi Shui Palace, and this time we have come to take your sister Yang Yue, who is our new palace master, back to take over the management of our Bi Shui Palace."
Yang Lei looked at her and said: "I'm very curious, how did you know that my sister is the master of your Bishui Palace?"
"She said: 'When we left the palace master, she had left us a token of the palace master. With this token, we can find her successor, who is also the new palace master.'"
