Chapter 78 The Steward's Fear
Chapter 78 The Steward's Fear
As the voice of the Zhao family's steward rang out.
Ye Jiu and his two companions, who were in the midst of training, immediately stopped and appeared in the courtyard in an instant.
Ye Ling also leaped down from the window, landing steadily in the courtyard.
"My lord!"
Upon seeing Ye Ling, Ye Jiu and the others called out respectfully.
Ye Ling nodded slightly and said, "Yes, go open the door."
"Let's see which Zhao family steward has popped up this time!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Jiu immediately opened the villa's main door.
The steward, upon seeing the four of them, also changed his expression instantly!
Wasn't it said that Ye Ling only had one subordinate?
How had it turned into three people now.
"That day I killed thirty-two people in the Zhao family; not a single direct descendant survived. Where did you come from?"
Ye Jiu looked at the steward and asked indifferently.
Upon hearing this, the steward also looked at Ye Jiu, and when he met Ye Jiu's indifferent eyes, the steward trembled, his back instantly drenched with cold sweat!
The one who had killed all the people of the Zhao family head's lineage that day was none other than this god of death in front of him!
How could the steward not be afraid when facing such a ruthless killer!
"This... my lord, on the day when the lord descended upon the Zhao family, the current Family Head and I were not in the Zhao family..."
"Today I am here to seek out Lord Ye Ling on the orders of the Family Head to deliver a letter to Lord Ye Ling..."
Fearing that Ye Jiu might suddenly attack him, the steward hastily stated his purpose!
Upon hearing this, Ye Jiu nodded indifferently and said coldly, "Where is the letter?"
"Here it is, my lord!"
The steward took an envelope out of his pocket and handed it to Ye Jiu respectfully.
After receiving the letter, Ye Jiu glanced at him disdainfully and turned back to Ye Ling's side.
"My lord, that guy said he's here to deliver a letter."
Ye Jiu said, handing the letter he was holding to Ye Ling.
Ye Ling nodded slightly. With his strength, he had naturally heard the conversation between Ye Jiu and the steward, so he did not ask further.
Opening the envelope, the letter only had a dozen or so words: "Tomorrow afternoon, Elegant Garden, settling scores, Southern Border Army, Zhao Yuansi!"
"How dare a mere soldier from the Southern Border challenge you to a meeting with such arrogance?"
"Why don't I go to the Zhao family and kill them all, saving us the trouble of them jumping around before you and annoying you!"
Ye Ling just glanced at him, said nothing, and turned around to head back inside the villa.
Seeing Ye Ling ignore him, Chen Dao awkwardly scratched the back of his head.
"You forget what the lord said about not making a big move?"
"This is Dragon Country, not our chaotic Northern Liao!"
He Feng said with a smile, shaking his head.
Before Ye Jiu could close the door, another Rolls-Royce stopped at the entrance of the villa!
After the car settled, Su Rou, who had been away from the villa for several days, stepped down from the car.
"Ah! You all are here?"
"Where's Ye Ling?"
Seeing Ye Jiu and the others, Su Rou also began to inquire.
After previous interactions, Su Rou was familiar with the three, so naturally she wasn't a stranger!
Ye Jiu smiled lightly and pointed inside the villa, saying, "The lord is inside the villa."
"Okay, you guys go ahead, I'll go find Ye Ling!"
After speaking, Su Rou walked into the villa.
With their capabilities, the three naturally noticed the changes in Su Rou during these few days!
Previously, due to her treatment in the Su family, Su Rou exuded an air of gloom and self-inferiority throughout her being.
But in these few days, the gloomy and self-inferior demeanor had disappeared, and she seemed much more cheerful and confident!
Ye Jiu closed the front door, but the three didn't hurry into the villa as they knew Su Rou had just returned and certainly needed to talk with Ye Ling; naturally, they didn't wish to intrude.
Inside the villa at that moment, just as the three had expected, Ye Ling and Su Rou were sitting on the living room sofa.
Su Rou chirped about what she had seen and learned while following beside Family Head Hu in the recent days.
And Ye Ling, far from showing any impatience, listened quietly with a smile throughout Su Rou's storytelling.
If the enemies of Northern Liao were to see the Northern Liao King's demeanor at this moment, it would probably drop many jaws!
The decisive and ruthless Northern Liao King, who would have thought he could be so approachable!
"You've worked hard these days."
"I haven't worked hard; it's all Family Head Hu who's been busy while I just watched..."
The two exchanged a smile, and it seemed their relationship was also gradually warming up!
