Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents

Chapter 614: Chapter 168: Savior Arrives? Patriarch of the Xie Family (Part 2)

He looked at Ye Liuyun with unwavering eyes.

As he got closer, he burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! It is truly an honor for the Xie family to have Brother Ye visit us!"

Saying this, he came over and grasped Ye Liuyun’s hand.

The Xie family’s current status wasn’t achieved through strength alone, Xie Fenghao is undoubtedly a capable and scheming person.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have encouraged the family’s younger generations to make friends with various talented knights.

The honor of the family is important, but in front of the friendship of a Grandmaster, it amounts to nothing.

"My apologies for not coming to greet Brother Ye immediately due to many affairs. I hope the late emperor wouldn’t blame this elder brother!"

"Patriarch Xie, you speak too highly!"

Ye Liuyun was a bit surprised.

He anticipated some friction, but as it turns out, this Xie Fenghao is unexpectedly smart.

He does not strike someone who comes bearing a smile.

The other party was giving so much face; Ye Liuyun was not one to reject kindness and, naturally, wouldn’t hold any grudge.

"The Xie family is mighty and busy, unlike me with nothing to do. Isn’t it normal for the Patriarch of the Xie family to have more work?"

"Hahaha!"

Upon hearing this from Ye Liuyun.

Xie Fenghao laughed even louder, his face full of familiarity.

To those who didn’t know, it would seem as if he and Ye Liuyun were long-time acquaintances.

"Calling me Patriarch Xie feels too distant; if Brother Ye doesn’t mind, just call me Brother Xie."

"Brother Xie!"

Ye Liuyun didn’t refuse the respect and called naturally.

"Hahaha! That’s better, that’s better!"

Even for the Xie family, they hadn’t befriended many Grandmasters.

And mostly, the relationships were just acquaintances. If the Xie family had a crisis, perhaps they could ask these people for help, but after assisting, the relationship would likely end.

Now, having a chance to deepen friendship with a Grandmaster, Xie Fenghao naturally wouldn’t miss it.

Furthermore, this Grandmaster is a young one.

Xie Fenghao is not foolish.

Such a person should either be befriended or dealt with beforehand; offending is the stupidest course of action.

"Pa-Patriarch!"

Xie Fenghao was about to say something else.

But at this moment, Xie Zheng’s parents snapped out of their shock and, stuttering, wanted to say something.

The situation was different than they expected.

Shouldn’t Xie Fenghao have forcefully struck down and killed Ye Liuyun right away? Why was there such familiarity, could Ye Liuyun have some relation to the Patriarch?

But if that were the case, they should have seen him in the family before.

Not only were this couple surprised.

Many Xie family members around were also puzzled.

Most people here thought their Patriarch would severely punish Ye Liuyun.

But now it seems.

Hiss!

Luckily, they didn’t rashly stand out and do something to Ye Liuyun, or else they might be the ones in trouble now.

Even if they were just watching, they should not have offended anyone.

"He..."

By now, even realizing things were off.

This couple couldn’t bow and apologize to Ye Liuyun either, as they had already offended him.

They could only tremble and raise their hand, pointing in Ye Liuyun’s direction, trying to say something.

But just as he uttered a word, Xie Fenghao’s expression suddenly changed, and he snorted coldly.

"Humph!"

Completely different from the smiling face shown to Ye Liuyun earlier.

His gaze was openly indifferent as if staring down at ants.

Just a look, and the couple felt a chill all over. Xie Fenghao was never known for being gentle, and everyone in the Xie family knew of his ruthless tactics.

No one foolishly dared to offend Patriarch Xie Fenghao.

"Ignorant fools, do you think you can afford to offend Brother Ye?"

Xie Fenghao always wanted to make the Xie family the world’s top family, not one of them.

For this dream, even his family’s children.

Xie Fenghao would have no mercy when acting.

"Pa-Patriarch!"

This cold gaze rendered the couple speechless, their foreheads suddenly covered in cold sweat.

Nobody expected things to escalate to this extent.

Who is this young man after all?

"Brother Xie, no need to be so angry!"

At this moment, Ye Liuyun waved his hand indifferently.

"Just kill them directly, there’s nothing to be angry about!"

"You!"

They thought Ye Liuyun might speak for them, but unexpectedly, he lightly suggested killing them.

They stared wide-eyed, and if looks could kill, Ye Liuyun might have been torn to shreds by now.

However!

As they tried to say more.

Xie Fenghao suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, Brother Ye is right!"

"No wonder Brother Ye has reached Grandmaster status at such a young age and is renowned throughout the Great Qian—such a mindset I cannot match!"

Compliments rolled out one after another, all praising Ye Liuyun.

The couple, along with the legless Xie Zheng, were all dumbfounded.

They hadn’t expected their Patriarch would truly agree with Ye Liuyun’s suggestion.
