Chapter 1750: Chapter 1750 Rumors Are Terrible
The Deacon of Mystique Mart, Alchemist Liu, was helping him verify the prices of those resources.
"Lord Li, you still have some items left. Do you want to exchange them for Divine Crystals, or keep the items?" Alchemist Liu asked.
"Exchange them all for Divine Crystals. These items are of no use if I keep them!" Li Yuanyang said. He guessed that Ye Liuyun wouldn’t value those items either, otherwise, he wouldn’t have exchanged them.
"Haha, that’s right. Lord Li is now affluent!" Alchemist Liu’s words were laced with hidden meanings.
They were also a great force in Tundraland. Li Yuanyang had taken over the property of the seven major families, how could they not know?
Li Yuanyang just smiled and said to Alchemist Liu, "Then, I will have to trouble Alchemist Liu!"
Alchemist Liu handed the four Alora Crystals that Ye Liuyun wanted to Li Yuanyang, and even gave him more than ten thousand Divine Crystals.
Li Yuanyang didn’t delay and quickly delivered everything to Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun just put those four Alora Crystals away.
"I will stay at the City Lord’s Mansion until the day I leave, these Divine Crystals will be my accommodation fee!" Ye Liuyun didn’t take the ten thousand plus Divine Crystals.
He was generous for the purpose of winning over people’s hearts, making Li Yuanyang keep his mouth shut.
Li Yuanyang thought about it and figured that Ye Liuyun wouldn’t care about these Divine Crystals, so he immediately thanked him and took it!
"Lord Li, you can go about your business. There’s a lot to do! I will be practicing here for the next two days and won’t go out unless there’s something!" Ye Liuyun also reassured Li Yuanyang that he wouldn’t cause any more trouble.
His goal had been achieved, and now, it was time to concentrate on his cultivation.
Li Yuanyang took his leave accordingly.
He allowed Li Manfu to leave a few men to guard the door without adding more manpower.
On the one hand, he needed people for various tasks. On the other hand, the abilities of Ye Liuyun meant he didn’t require their protection. Keeping a few men around simply allowed them to run errands for Ye Liuyun.
Then, he went about his own business. Having taken over the industries of seven families, he had quite a few things to deal with.
But there was no such thing as a wall that is perfectly sealed.
News quickly leaked out. Bai Muyu sought out Ye Liuyun, leading to his own disaster. Even the other six families were wiped out along with him, and for a time, it became a laughing stock.
When the Yuan family learned of this news, they were extremely shocked.
Yuan Songping analyzed, "There was not a single body left at the scene, very similar to the situation in Randelion Forest. It’s likely they were eaten by beasts or stored away. It must be the handiwork of Ye Liuyun!"
"So you’re saying, the incident with the Black Tiger Gang was also his doing?" the patriarch of the Yuan family asked.
The extermination of these seven families was similar to how the Black Tiger Gang was wiped out.
"Very likely. If he wiped out the Black Tiger Gang before going to Randelion Forest, the timing would fit perfectly," Yuan Songping replied.
The patriarch of the Yuan family nodded, “Mm, meaning this guy pretended to be taken away by Xiao Bingxin, then kidnapped Xiao Bingxin, stole the resources from the Ice Palace, infiltrated the Black Tiger Gang, acquired their resources, annihilated the feral beast of the Randelion Forest and now, wiped out those seven families?”
After the patriarch of the Yuan family finished his analysis, the elders of the Yuan family all gasped in shock.
Finally, the patriarch asked, "When will this calamity leave?"
They were all worried Ye Liuyun would take action against the Yuan family.
"In a day’s time!" Yuan Songping reported.
In just one day, Ye Liuyun could obliterate seven factions. For the Yuan family, this extra day was particularly tough to bear.
They had all figured out that Ye Liuyun had took action to seize resources.
"I heard that the man is always surrounded by women, and he didn’t kill Tianyu the first time he met her— even greeted her when they meet again. Could it be possible for Tianyu to..."
An elder began to speak, but he stopped halfway through his words.
Given the fact that Ye Liuyun was always surrounded by women, the elder considered having Yuan Tianyu employ her feminine charms.
Upon hearing his words, Yuan Songping immediately spoke discontentedly, "Those women around that young man, each of their abilities is far from ordinary! Tianyu is far behind them!
I think he may not necessarily make a move on us! After all, we didn’t provoke him!"
The elder retorted, "If he weren’t provoked, would A Tai let him slaughter him? Women, for men, what does a little difference in status matter? He might even give Tianyu some cultivation resources..."
"Alright!" The Yuan family patriarch didn’t want to listen to their quarrel and directly instructed Yuan Songping, "You take Tianyu with you and deliver our family’s Space Intent Alora Crystal to Ye Liuyun as an apology. Let’s not say more about it."
He hesitated, then added as if he’d made a resolution, "If he insists on keeping Tianyu, then you should return alone!"
Yuan Songping was taken aback, but still agreed.
"Yes, I’ll arrange it immediately."
He also understood that the patriarch was doing this for the survival of their family. Otherwise, who would willingly give away their daughter?
After Yuan Songping left, he sighed deeply, feeling helpless.
He went to the family treasure house to take out the Space Intent Alora Crystal and then went to call Yuan Tianyu.
Yuan Tianyu, upon hearing that she was to give her apologies to Ye Liuyun, was actually quite thrilled. She even took some time to doll herself up.
Yuan Songping didn’t have the heart to outright tell her about the clan leader’s decision, but instead revealed that the seven major families were wiped out.
"Serves them right! Who told Bai Muyu to have a death wish! If I were met with an assassination, of course, I would retaliate.
Besides, I never said that I planned to marry Bai Muyu. What right does he have to stain my reputation! What does it have to do with him about who I like?"
Rather than blaming Ye Liuyun, Yuan Tianyu shifted blame onto Bai Muyu.
Then she turned to Yuan Songping to ask, "Will Ye Liuyun ignore me because of Bai Muyu?"
Seeing his young mistress smitten with Ye Liuyun, Yuan Songping could only feel helpless. If she were to be given herself to Ye Liuyun right now, he was sure she wouldn’t resist.
"He shouldn’t. He shouldn’t be an unreasonable person," Yuan Songping could only say in consolation.
"After he leaves, will he come back?" Yuan Tianyu asked, exposing her inner thoughts.
Yuan Songping slowly shook his head, not in the mood to indulge her fantasies.
The incident that happened in Tundraland, together with the circulating rumors, had also found its way to the Ice Palace.
"What? Such a thing happened?" Li Xuanbing, the master of the Ice Palace was only just informed of the incident involving Xia Bingxin kidnapping Ye Liuyun.
If Ye Liuyun hadn’t exhibited his power, nobody would have connected the dots and his prior kidnapping would have never been revealed.
But now, as all matters linked together, they naturally pointed towards Ye Liuyun.
It underscored the terrifying power of rumors. The power of the people was really tremendous. This time, they had actually found the real culprit.
With nothing else coming to mind, Li Xuanbing directly rushed to the city lord’s mansion to hold Ye Liuyun accountable.
