My wife is a reborn big boss

Chapter 146 The Terrifying Four Masters of Tingyu Pavilion

That night, Ye Youdao was in his room discussing something with his daughter.

"That's how it is. I've decided that we'll leave in three days while things are in chaos. What do you think, Xin'er?" Ye Youdao asked his daughter sitting opposite him.

His daughter, Ye Junxin, was beautiful. Although she had a scholarly air about her, her bright, sparkling eyes showed that she was not some spineless young lady from a prominent family.

"Has Father decided where he wants to go?" Ye Yunxin asked quietly, holding a book in her hands.

Ye Youdao smiled wickedly: "My daughter and I depend on each other for survival. Where in the world can't we go? At worst, we can go and seek refuge with the Senluo Palace. I heard that your brother Chen has already become the young master of the Senluo Palace. I don't think he will treat us poorly."

"Father, your smile is really unsightly." Ye Yunxin put down her book and sighed helplessly. "Also, I only see Brother Chen as a brother and have no romantic feelings for him. Besides, his wife died at the hands of Tingyu Pavilion. Why should we walk into a trap?"

"But your mother loved to see me smile like that," Ye Youdao said, then dropped the subject. "Xin'er, you seem so confident. Have you already made up your mind?"

"That's good." Seeing that her father was unwilling to mention her mother, Ye Yunxin said, "Let's go and seek refuge with Sister Bu."

"Sister Bu...that famous songstress?" Ye Youdao raised an eyebrow: "It's fine for your father to become a guard, but Xin'er, you absolutely cannot become a songstress. Your father will not allow it!"

"Sigh... my daughter is tone-deaf; she couldn't be a singer even if she wanted to," Ye Yunxin sighed. "Sister Bu once invited me to join their organization, and I said I'd think about it. Since I can't stay at Tingyu Pavilion anymore, I'll go find her."

Ye Yunxin smiled and said, "It just so happens that my daughter is very interested in the organizational goals that Sister Bu mentioned."

Ye Youdao asked in confusion, "What target?"

"Number one in the world." Ye Yunxin's eyes were burning: "The organization must become the number one organization in the world, and its members must also become the number one in their respective industries."

""

It was just something someone said casually...

"Wow...what an imposing target!" Ye Youdao asked with a serious expression, "What's the name of this organization?"

"The Black Dragon Society." Ye Yun's eyes gleamed with longing. "It's said that one day, the organization's leader saw dark clouds obscuring the sun, and thus made a grand vow to become a black dragon soaring through the nine heavens. His dream is for everyone in the world to be like a dragon!"

No, he just couldn't think of a name, and when he looked down he saw a loach...

"Everyone in the world is like a dragon..." Ye Youdao said admiringly, "I wonder if I, as your father, will have the chance to meet such a person."

He then asked, "Then why is it called Black Dragon instead of Azure Dragon?"

Ye Yunxin explained, "Because Sister Bu said, 'Even though we are in darkness, our hearts yearn for the light.'"

No, actually it's because the Azure Dragon Society infringed on copyright...

"I see." Ye Youdao closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, then opened them again, his mind made up: "Let's go and join the Black Dragon Society!"

Meanwhile, the ambitious man they described as having the power to devour the heavens was freeloading off the city lord's mansion.

"My Lord," Wu Qiong spat out a fishbone and complained, "why are there only dried small fish? This is Qizhou! Qizhou is right by the sea! Where's the abalone? Where's the shark fin? Where's the sea cucumber? At the very least, there should be lobster and scallops, right?"

Even if none of these are there, why did you give me so many dried fish, and why are they so salty! Ugh, ugh, ugh...

Are you trying to kill me with saltiness?

He gulped down a cup of tea before his mouth felt less salty.

"I'm innocent, my lord!" The city lord cried out innocently. "I know His Majesty loves seafood, and every day the freshest catch is sent to Jingzhou immediately! I have never hidden anything, my lord!"

He was afraid that Wu Qiong would make things difficult for him in front of the Emperor.

Wu Qiong sensed it, but the magical conch shell didn't react.

Indeed, Her Majesty the Queen is busy with state affairs every day; she doesn't have the time to eavesdrop all the time.

He then smiled and said, "Yes, well done. His Majesty is very satisfied. I will put in a good word for the city lord when I get back."

The city lord was overjoyed upon hearing this: "Thank you, my lord! Thank you, my lord!"

Sure enough, shamelessly groveling and sucking up to him had an effect. As long as he held on to this hairy, thick leg in front of him, how could he not get promoted?

"Don't rush to say thank you. Please introduce yourself first, City Lord," Wu Qiong said with a smile.

"This..." The city lord glanced at Su and Li, and said with a forced smile, "I'm afraid it's not very convenient?"

With both of you here, it's really inconvenient to talk about what "special features" Qizhou City has right now.

Wu Qiong followed his gaze and immediately understood: "Ahem, we can talk about this privately later. I'm asking about the heads of the four major families of Tingyu Pavilion. Could you please introduce their characteristics so that it will be easier for us to take action later?"

After he finished speaking, he winked at the city lord.

The city lord smiled knowingly and said, "That's easy to say. There are four major families in Tingyu Pavilion: the Xiao,..."

Lin, Su, Ye.

He paused for a moment, as if organizing his thoughts: "The current head of Listening Rain Pavilion, Xiao Miao, is born with the attribute of water. It is said that he can control eight kinds of different types of water, he..."

'

"Stop!" Wu Qiong waved his hand to interrupt him: "Next."

"Uh, okay." The city lord chuckled awkwardly, "The head of the Su family, Su Wuxin, walks the path of slaughter. It's said his motto is: 'Although my name is Su Wuxin, I keep my word. If I say I'll kill you...'"

3

"Stop!" Wu Qiong sighed helplessly, rubbing his forehead. "Next."

The city lord opened his mouth and continued, "Ye Youdao, the head of the Ye family, is said to have been a playboy in his youth who considered himself a defender of morality. He took conquering beautiful women as his greatest pleasure in life..."

3

"Alright!" Wu Qiong's voice remained completely calm. "Let's talk about the last one."

'

"..." The city lord maintained his smile: "Finally, it's Lin Fan from the Lin family."

1

He stopped.

"Why stop?" Wu Qiongqi asked.

"Are you sure you don't want to interrupt me?" the city lord asked cautiously.

"There are so many people named Lin Fan, and he's not surnamed Chen. Why am I interrupting you?" Wu Qiong said irritably.

The city lord's lips twitched slightly as he continued, "Lin Fan, the head of the Lin family, has cultivation approaching the Daoist Natural Realm. But this is merely my speculation, as I haven't fought anyone in a long time, and there's not much to say about him. The main issue is his troublesome son, Lin Feng. It's said he sought a marriage proposal from Ye Youdao for his son, but I don't know if it's successful. Oh, by the way..."

He said, "A few days ago, Lin Feng offended someone and had his arm cut off. He is currently being ordered by Lin Fan to stay home and reflect on his actions. Lin Fan's only son had his arm cut off, but he did not retaliate... In my opinion, he offended someone that Tingyu Pavilion cannot afford to offend."

"That's enough for you to know." Wu Qiong turned to Long Aoyu: "Palace Master Long, I will take care of the Lin family for you, don't worry."

Long Aoyu's expression remained calm as he nodded slightly: "In that case, thank you very much, Young Master Wu."

"Brother Wu, what are we doing down here?" asked Jie Se, who had been listening in.

"We just need to wait for three days from now." Wu Qiong's eyes were piercing. "City Lord, we will need your full cooperation at that time."

"Of course, of course." The city lord raised his cup: "I wish you a smooth journey in three days."
