Chapter 79 Actions of Both Sides
At this moment, the steward had also returned to the Zhao family.
Very soon, he spoke in front of Zhao Yuansi and Commander Wang, "Young Master, Commander Wang, that Ye Ling is utterly disrespectful!"
"Not only did he reject Young Master's challenge for tomorrow, he also smashed the letter into the carriage as a show of defiance to our Zhao family!"
Hearing this, Zhao Yuansi slammed his hand onto the table.
With a cold expression, he said, "Ye Ling has quite the nerve!"
"Besides that, did he say anything else?"
The steward's face changed subtly, showing reluctance to speak further.
Seeing his reaction, Zhao Yuansi's face grew even darker, "When I tell you to speak, you speak!"
"Yes, yes, Young Master, you have no idea, that guy is unbelievably arrogant!"
The steward hastily complied and continued, "He said what does the Southern Border Army amount to, and that you, Young Master, don't qualify to make him take action personally!"
"He also said that if Young Master wishes to settle your family's grudge with him, you should visit him in person!"
"Moreover... this guy also said that not just you, Young Master, but even Commander Wang doesn't have the clout to deserve a personal audience with him, and only if the Southern Border King himself arrives would he consider meeting..."
The steward was no fool, at this moment he was exaggerating his words to incite Commander Wang, intending to provoke the Southern Border's commander to take revenge for the Zhao family!
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuansi's face turned utterly grim, and with a foreboding tone, he said, "Ye Ling has quite the nerve! How dare he show such disrespect to me and Commander Wang!"
"He even has the audacity to claim that only if the king of the Southern Border personally comes, would he be worthy of an audience with him, such extreme arrogance!"
Commander Wang, standing by, also had an ice-cold expression, with a barely discernible murderous aura emanating from him.
As the fourth commander of the Southern Border Army, his status was highly esteemed. When had he ever been treated with such disdain?
"This Ye Ling is indeed arrogant!"
"I wonder if he truly isn't aware of the strength of our Southern Border Army, or if he is just feigning composure?"
"If that's truly the case, someone who doesn't even comprehend the Southern Border Army is no threat to us!"
Commander Wang took a deep breath, suppressing his towering rage, and said in an icy voice.
At these words, Zhao Yuansi, who had been visibly angered just before, now let out a cold laugh and said, "Commander Wang, you indeed see things clearly!"
"If Ye Ling truly had the strength and dared to look down upon the Southern Border Army, how terrifying his status must be!"
"In my opinion, such an unknown and worthless character is probably trying to confuse us, making us believe he holds some lofty status so we dare not trouble him further!"
Hong Wu was a Great Grandmaster that the Qiankun War King had met years ago when he came to Gusu City in search of dragon veins.
Back then, Hong Wu was already at the peak of the Great Grandmasters, though he was living in seclusion on Mount Tai'er.
With a few casual pointers from the Qiankun War King, Hong Wu had owed him a favor.
Two years prior, Hong Wu had already been at the peak of the Great Grandmasters and now, with two more years passing and the guidance from the Qiankun War King, Hong Wu's strength would be even greater.
Since Lin Zhantian was no match for Ye Ling's subordinate, it was most appropriate to have Hong Wu make a move and test him.
...
The next morning dawned.
Ye Ling woke up early as he had done in days past.
"Big Brother Ye, I've prepared breakfast for you. It's on the table downstairs!"
"If you're awake, go eat. It'll get cold soon, and I'm heading to the foundation first!"
Su Rou's voice came from outside the door.
Ye Ling opened his room's door and saw Su Rou, who was much more cheerful than usual, and showed a knowing smile.
He looked at Su Rou and said with a smile, "Not sleeping in a while longer?"
"No need to sleep more. Big Brother Ye, you don't need to worry about my health. Ever since I started taking the medicine you prescribed, I can feel my body getting better every day!"
Su Rou said with a light laugh, then continued, "The foundation has just been set up, and all matters are being handled by Family Head Hu. I want to become familiar with them as soon as possible so I can help out!"
Hearing this, Ye Ling smiled and nodded.
He could feel that Su Rou's body was getting stronger day by day. At this rate, it wouldn't be long before he could intervene to treat Su Rou and completely cure the issues with her health.
"Go ahead, and be careful on the way."
Su Rou displayed a sweet smile and left the villa.
Outside the villa, Family Head Hu had already had a Rolls-Royce waiting for Su Rou.
Ye Ling went downstairs and saw the breakfast still steaming on the table, showing a heartwarming smile.
As he was enjoying breakfast, his brow suddenly furrowed.
Outside the villa, a Maybach stopped abruptly, and Ye Jiu and his two companions appeared at the villa's entrance in an instant.
Looking at the Maybach before him, Chen Dao said coldly, "Who is this audacious ruffian, daring to disturb the peace so early in the morning!"
