Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister-Chapter 769 - 437: A Sword from 100 Miles Away!

Once comfortably clothed and fed, one’s thoughts often turn to sensual desires, especially in a place like a brothel.

Moreover, a grand occasion like a breakthrough in the Dao Realm certainly calls for rewarding oneself.

As for those who hadn’t achieved a breakthrough, they especially needed to comfort themselves.

After eating and drinking their fill, each chose a girl.

Only Chen Xuan found none of the girls in the brothel to his liking, so while the others went off with their chosen companions, he left the brothel alone. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

He walked onto the brightly lit main street, having already restored his appearance to that of a burly man.

Looking at the bustling crowd, all adorned with smiles.

"This is prosperity!"

"This is the Imperial City."

Chen Xuan reflected in his heart.

Ordinary people are quite easily satisfied.

"Actually... Great Yu is pretty nice after all."

Chen Xuan chuckled and then quickened his steps, heading along the main street.

About an hour later, he stopped before a mansion’s gate.

The Ye Mansion!

Chen Xuan had arrived at Ye Jinghong’s family estate.

"Quite ordinary indeed."

Looking at the small gate, Chen Xuan murmured softly.

But upon reflection, it made sense.

In the Imperial City, the Ye Family is merely a mid-tier family, strictly speaking, perhaps leaning towards the lower end.

There are at least a thousand families like this in the Imperial City.

With the slightest misstep, they could be devoured.

Previously, with the connection to Ye Jinghong and Shen Xuan, the Ye Family managed to gain a firm footing in the Imperial City.

But after Shen Xuan’s death... many have set their sights on the Ye Family.

This is the main reason Ye Jinghong was keen to curry favor with Chen Xuan.

Ultimately, it’s due to seeing his potential, and of course, the backing of Qin Ying behind him.

As for Chen Xuan’s visit, it was because he had almost acquired all the arrays from the Three Judicial Departments, except for the last one which was partly incomplete.

And the matter regarding the Shadow Guard was coming to an end.

Staying here any longer would be of no further use, so he planned to return to rMolan Mansion.

Yet before leaving, he intended to meet Ye Jinghong’s father, the current Patriarch of the Ye Family, who was practically denied an opportunity due to Murong Chuan.

No matter what, compensating him a little was necessary.

He then approached and softly addressed the guard to his left, "I am a friend of Ye Jinghong’s, requesting an audience with Patriarch Ye, please inform him!"

"A friend of the young master’s?"

The guard, a middle-aged man, regarded Chen Xuan from head to toe.

It was quite dubious wanting to meet the Patriarch in such dark conditions.

Although puzzled, as a guard, the housekeeper of the Ye Family had long advised them: in the Imperial City, one must treat everyone courteously and not be disrespectful.

Otherwise, they’d be directly expelled from the Ye Family.

Having served the Ye Family for over ten years, he had long developed a humble and cautious character.

He then cupped his hands in salute and softly asked, "May I ask for the lord’s name, so I can better report to Patriarch Ye?"

"We met some days ago, just report as such."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man refrained from further questioning, slightly bowed, nodded to the guard on the right, and immediately went inside.

A moment later, the middle-aged man came jogging to Chen Xuan’s side, bent over, and extended a hand with a respectful look, "This way, my lord, please!"

"Thank you!"

Chen Xuan casually uttered two words and then strode inside the Ye Family estate.

Ye Family’s main hall.

Upon seeing Chen Xuan’s figure, Ye Fan immediately rose with a smile, "Nephew has come at this hour, is there something important?"

"Uncle jests, there’s no major event, just wanted to see you before leaving."

The two had met last time, although Ye Fan’s strength only reached the fifth level of the Dao Realm.

But he and Ye Jinghong had a brotherly bond, hence Chen Xuan called him uncle.

"Sit!"

Ye Fan pointed to a seat below.

"Thank you, uncle."

Chen Xuan slightly nodded and then slowly sat down.

Afterward, Ye Fan activated the hall’s array to ensure no one could eavesdrop.

"This is for Uncle."

Chen Xuan took out a Communication Spirit Talisman from his bosom and sent it to Ye Fan.

"What is this?"

Looking at the Communication Spirit Talisman in his hand, Ye Fan asked.

"Should you encounter any trouble, you can directly send a message to Long Da; I’ve already informed him."

Chen Xuan explained.

"The guardian of Qin Ying’s Highness!"

Ye Fan immediately rejoiced, considering the Ye Family wasn’t exactly in dire peril, but certainly cautious and apprehensive.

Especially as the Patriarch of the Ye Family, it was like walking on thin ice.

For families like the Ye Family, in a place like the Imperial City, disappearing wouldn’t even stir a ripple.

The Imperial City is good, but that is for those noteworthy figures.

Frankly speaking, for families like theirs, life isn’t even as comfortable as those of ordinary people.

Of course, unless you find someone to rely on.

However, even then, the cost remains sky-high annually.

Nevertheless, it’s a very favorable outcome.

Like the Ye Family, without the connection to Shen Xuan, the Shen Family wouldn’t bother with them.

They simply wouldn’t care.

Now, with the added bond to Qin Ying, finally, there’s peace of mind for sleep.

Carefully placing the talisman into his bosom, he then rose in gratitude towards Chen Xuan, "Many thanks, nephew."

Given the current state of the Ye Family, this is akin to a lifesaving measure.

"Uncle is too kind."

Chen Xuan said with a smile.

But the current situation of the Ye Family was ultimately caused by him, were it not for him killing Shen Xuan, the Ye Family wouldn’t be in this state.

But... now it’s even better!

After all, comparing Shen Xuan and Qin Ying, it’s crystal clear which is better.

"By the way, I need to see Murong Chuan to instruct him on some matters!"

"Hold on a moment, I’ll immediately send him the message."

Then, he immediately conveyed a sound message to Murong Chuan in the secret chamber.

"Chuan, come to the main hall!"

In the deepest chamber of the Ye Family, Murong Chuan slowly opened his eyes and ceased his cultivation.
