From Joy of Life to Becoming a Saint

Chapter 63 Take decisive action
Yan Xiaoyi's grip on the bow increased visibly, his veins bulging and crackling. Today he was following the orders of the eldest princess to investigate whether Fan Xian was the man in black who appeared in the palace last night. If a conflict broke out now, it would not only delay the eldest princess' orders, but would also likely cause the emperor to be furious. After all, he came to the Fan Mansion without asking for permission.

Just when Yan Xiaoyi was hesitating whether to fight in the street, a figure walked over and eased the tense atmosphere.

"Old Chen, why don't you come in and sit at my door?"

When Fan Sizhe came back from outside, he saw Chen Qiye and Yan Xiaoyi standing outside his house and looking at each other. He didn't notice the tense atmosphere at all. He walked over, patted Chen Qiye on the shoulder and greeted him with a smile.

As for Yan Xiaoyi... he pretended not to see anything.

Chen Qiye asked in confusion: "What did you call me?"

Fan Sizhe responded with a smile: "Old Chen, considering your relationship with my sister, I think we should try to build a closer relationship first. Maybe we can become a family in the future. Let Old Chen seem closer."

"Uh... what Master Sizhe said makes sense."

Fan Sizhe nodded with satisfaction: "I like your character, honesty."

"You haven't been to my house yet, have you? Now that you're here, come in and sit down, walk around..."

Having said that, Fan Sizhe was about to pull Chen Qiye home.

"Old Chen, you don't know. Last night, Fan Xian was carried back home. Everyone in the family said that he had become a god in the fairy city. Even my mother said the same thing. When I asked her for money, not only did she not give it to me, she also beat me up."

"This is really heartbreaking for my son. Now that the whole family is revolving around Fan Xian, since you are here, why don't you accompany me and let's play Pai Gow together. By the way, do you have any money on you?"

Chen Qiye: “???”

While he was speechless, he also knew one thing, that is, Fan Xian attended the evening banquet in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests last night, recited hundreds of poems, and achieved the reputation of the Immortal Poet overnight.

The next step should be to go to the Queen Mother's bedroom to steal the key. On the way, he ran into Li Yunrui and Zhuang Mohan talking at night and learned the truth about Yan Bingyun being betrayed.

So, now Yan Xiaoyi is here to test Fan Xian on behalf of the princess?
Yan Xiaoyi is a little wolfdog raised by Li Yunrui. After all, she is the most beautiful girl in the world. Even though Yan Xiaoyi has the strength to be immune to the suppression of imperial power, he still couldn't escape the beauty and was willing to be a dog. It's really amazing.

Even the top ninth-rank archers and grand masters did not dare to stand and catch his arrows. If he really wanted to be free, then the imperial laws would be nothing to him. The fact that Yan Xiaoyi was able to escape from the palace and kill Fan Xian for Li Yunrui proved that Yan Xiaoyi himself was not that loyal to the imperial power and Emperor Qing, but unfortunately he was tamed by Li Yunrui.

Chen Qiye thought about it carefully and did not refuse Fan Sizhe's invitation. After casually glancing at Yan Xiaoyi, he smiled and replied, "Since Master Sizhe is so kind, then Chen will not refuse."

"Okay, okay, let's go in now. Don't worry, my father and mother are busy now. If you want to see my sister, I will take you there."

Where can you find such a good brother-in-law? Chen Qiye was so touched.

"It seems you really didn't listen to what I said."

Just as the two were about to enter the mansion, Yan Xiaoyi followed behind them.

Fan Sizhe turned around and looked at him unhappily: "Old Chen is my friend. Even if you have conflicts with him, this is the Fan Mansion."

After saying that, he turned back to look at Chen Qiye: "By the way, Lao Chen, what's going on between you and him?"

"Well... it's nothing. Commander Yan just told me to stay away from the Fan family, otherwise I'll be in trouble."

Fan Sizhe was a little confused: "Did you offend him? No, even if you offended him, what does it have to do with people close to our Fan family."

Chen Qiye spread his hands: "I don't know either. Today is the first time I met Commander Yan."

"Then forget about him, let's go our way."

Fan Sizhe couldn't figure it out, so he just stopped thinking about it and pulled Chen Qiye home.

He originally wanted to take Chen Qiye to play Pai Gow to earn some money from him, but Yan Xiaoyi behind him was so shameless that he followed him directly into his house and went straight to Fan Xian's yard.

Fan Sizhe was so angry that he jumped up and down. "This guy is so uneducated. He just breaks into other people's homes without any reason."

After saying that, he chased in the direction of Yan Xiaoyi. Seeing this, Chen Qiye thought about it and decided to follow him.

Now that he has entered the vortex of Kyoto, instead of passively waiting for others to find him, it is better for him to take the initiative to reveal his identity to everyone.

There are only two ways to survive in Kyoto so that the bigwigs from all sides of Qing Kingdom will be afraid to take drastic measures against him. The first is to hide completely in the dark. With his ninth-rank skills, as long as he doesn't go to the palace to find Emperor Qing, he will basically be fine.

But Chen Qiye didn't want to hide all day.

The second way is to let others think that he is Fan Xian's man. In this way, even if Fan Xian's fathers suspect him, they will not act rashly against him. They will definitely try to test him.

Moreover, having an identity in the open would be more helpful to him than keeping it in secret, and it would also give him more opportunities to find the other three temple techniques.

For example, Sean and Haitang Duoduo, these people will all be concentrated around Fan Xian, so for this identity, Fan Ruoruo seems to be the most suitable one at the moment.

While thinking, Chen Qiye followed Fan Sizhe in the direction Yan Xiaoyi left.

Soon they arrived at a yard, and from the sound they heard Fan Ruoruo and Yan Xiaoyi seemed to be arguing about something.

"I said, my brother is resting, no one can disturb him."

Fan Ruoruo opened her arms and vigilantly blocked the entrance of the room, her eyes revealing anxiety.

Yan Xiaoyi frowned. If he were an ordinary person, he would have forced his way in long ago, but Fan Ruoruo kept obstructing him, and he gradually lost his patience.

"I only wanted to find Fan Xian to verify one thing. I'll take a look and leave."

After saying that, he reached out and pushed Fan Ruoruo to the side.

Although the force was very light, it still pushed Fan Ruoruo so hard that she almost fell.

"That's too much. You actually dared to push my sister. Didn't you hear what my sister said? Fan Xian is resting now. You stand there and don't move."

After Fan Sizhe and the other man appeared, Yan Xiaoyi paused and turned to look at them.

Fan Ruoruo also took advantage of this gap to block the entrance to the room again.

After being blocked repeatedly, Yan Xiaoyi became impatient and was about to force his way in.

Chen Qiye moved his eyes. According to the character he had created for himself, he would definitely stand up for his beloved at all costs.

then···
Chen Qiye flashed and slapped Yan Xiaoyi on the back.

Yan Xiaoyi turned around and threw a punch, confronting Chen Qiye head-on with his fist and palm.

Chen Qiye flew backwards, while Yan Xiaoyi stayed where he was without moving.

This is normal, after all, Chen Qiye is at the peak of the eighth rank, and Yan Xiaoyi is at the peak of the ninth rank.

Yan Xiaoyi fought back casually, and Chen Qiye was very strong even without being injured.

But Yan Xiaoyi, who seemed to have the absolute upper hand, looked at Chen Qiye who was flying backwards with a serious expression.

After landing, Chen Qiye sighed in his heart. It seemed that his prediction was correct. When fighting with a real master, no matter how well he hid, he would still be discovered. After all, he was not at the peak of the eighth rank, but close to the upper ninth rank.
