My Arrogant Young Lady

When everyone heard Ye Shuang snap her fingers, many people turned to look at her. After she finished speaking, the entire room fell silent. All eyes were on Ye Shuang and me.

Surprised, many people's expressions changed at that moment. Because they recognized me, they recognized me as the once-glorious heir of the Wang family in the provincial capital.

They never dreamed that, in this era of declining Tao and rising Demon, with Aurora at the height of its power, I would actually appear before Aurora. Moreover, I would appear in Ye Shuang's hands.

It's over. The Wang family is completely finished. It seems their choice was right; siding with Aurora was the right decision. Now, even the Wang family's heir has been captured. The Wang family's demise is not far off. Thinking of this, many people secretly admired how wise their choice had been.

When Ye Shuang saw everyone looking at him with surprise, even Li Guanghui, he couldn't help but laugh triumphantly again. "Wang Xi, the heir of the Wang family, I'm sure everyone knows him. And I, to repay Aurora for nurturing me, have captured him!"

"Take a good look, everyone. Isn't he the heir of the Wang family? I've captured him. I've done a great service for Aurora!" With that, Ye Shuang proudly raised her head.

In an instant, thunderous applause filled the entire party.

Many people looked at Ye Shuang with envy, not expecting him to have made another contribution to Aurora so quickly. It seems Ye Shuang needs to curry favor with him even more.

However, Li Guanghui couldn't understand a word Ye Shuang said. Previously, when communicating with Ye Shuang, it was always the translator who helped them.

As Ye Shuang spoke, his translator spoke to him with a serious expression. His gaze shifted, and he kept glancing at me with a furrowed brow.

Once Ye Shuang achieved the desired effect, he immediately turned to me with a cold expression and said, "Wang Xi, kneel down before me!"

"Lord Li Guanghui, we suspect that Ye Shuang is the heir of the Wang family. Make him kneel down," the translator whispered to Li Guanghui.

"Aish!" Li Guanghui exclaimed immediately upon hearing the translator's words.

"Brother Li, what do you think of my work?" Ye Shuang looked at Li Guanghui with delighted surprise as he shouted.

But instead, he was met with a pistol. Li Guanghui's face was full of anger as he pointed the pistol at him menacingly, uttering a string of Korean words.

"Brother Li, what did you say?" Sensing that something was wrong, Ye Shuang frowned slightly.

"You audacious wretch! How could our Lord Suzaku's personal disciple be a remnant of the Wang family? Do you think you have the right to insult the higher-ups of Aurora? Release him at once!"

"What?" After hearing the translator's words and seeing Li Guanghui's angry expression, Ye Shuang was completely bewildered...

Chapter 315 Ye Shuang's Trick

"Damn it, let him go!" While Ye Shuang was still hesitating, all the Aurora members at the party, more than fifty god-level experts, simultaneously raised their pistols and aimed them at Ye Shuang.

Ye Shuang panicked at that moment. He glanced at me frantically, then at Li Guanghui. He wanted to explain, but the situation was too urgent. If they kept me there, Li Guanghui and the Aurora members might shoot him. But he was also reluctant to release me. After all, I was Aurora's number two wanted criminal, the heir of the Wang family. If he missed this opportunity, he would never have another chance to catch me.

However, Li Guanghui was enraged to see that Ye Shuang, a mere Chinese, dared to disobey orders, and immediately pulled the trigger.

He was a top-tier master, with unparalleled marksmanship. The bullet fired at that moment, grazing past Ye Shuang's ear. "Damn it, let him go!"

Seeing that Li Guanghui had actually fired a gun, Ye Shuang finally became afraid. He was very unwilling, but he still gave me an angry look and let me go.

What exactly is going on?

Seeing that Ye Shuang had released me, a smile returned to my face. I gently brushed aside the wrinkles on my sleeve and whispered in Ye Shuang's ear, "Senior Brother, I'm also a member of Aurora. Not only am I a member of Aurora, but I'm also a high-ranking figure in Aurora. You call yourself a chosen one, but you don't seem as outstanding as me. Even as a traitor, your status is not as noble as mine."

"What!?" Ye Shuang's expression changed upon hearing my words.

"Idiot, our good brother is the future ruler of northern China, and he's also the personal disciple of Vermilion Bird, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Aurora. Even as a traitor, your status isn't as high as our good brother's. You might as well just die." Young Master Bao, who walked in from outside, mocked Ye Shuang.

"What?" Upon hearing Young Master Bao's words, Ye Shuang's expression changed once again.

At that moment, everyone present understood. They all recognized me; they knew I was Wang Xi, the heir of the Wang family. As for my rise to a high-ranking position at Aurora, it was likely I had infiltrated Aurora as an undercover agent. But looking at how united Aurora was with me, who among them dared to say anything?

Even though Li Guanghui and I have a grudge and he'd love for me to die, he still couldn't help but draw his gun to help me when he saw me being humiliated by Ye Shuang. While Aurora is hateful, they do have their merits in reaching their current position. Unity is one of their strengths. Aurora is a group with ideals and ambitions, unlike ordinary criminal gangs. Even if Aurora has internal conflicts, if anyone dares to humiliate one of their members, they will immediately stand up for them.

Moreover, I am a disciple of the Vermilion Bird and a master above the gods; my prestige in Aurora is very high. That Li Guanghui has always been showing off in front of me, but when he was swallowed by the King Serpent, I was the first to save him. Now, he's pointing a pistol at Ye Shuang for my sake. What does that matter?

Aurora has never doubted me, never doubted my identity. This is one of the reasons why I dared to openly appear at the provincial capital's banquet.

Even if Ye Shuang knows my identity, so what? Does Aurora believe a traitor from the Ye family instead of a master personally trained by Aurora?

When I first joined Aurora, I was just an insignificant lower-level god-level expert. They nurtured me into a master above the gods, and they all have feelings for me.

Whether it's Prince Wang Xi or a high-ranking official of Aurora, as long as they have power in the provincial capital, that's enough. We'll latch onto this powerful figure!

Thinking of this, the bigwigs who had initially fawned over Li Guanghui and flattered him immediately came over to flatter me instead.

"Wang Xi is indeed Wang Xi, and the Crown Prince is indeed the Crown Prince. Even after joining Aurora, he is still more outstanding than the average person," a middle-aged man laughed.

"Brother Xi, do you still recognize me? I'm Zhang Aoqing. You've gotten even fairer and more handsome. You're married now, and you're even more charming than before." A stunningly beautiful woman walked up to me and said affectionately.

"You've become even more beautiful!" I said with a smile, giving the beautiful woman's cheek a firm pinch.

Surrounded by the crowd, the translator continuously translated what we said to Li Guanghui. Then, he said to Li Guanghui, "Lord Li Guanghui, could it be that Lord Hao is really Wang Xi, the heir of the Wang family? They seem to really know each other. Why don't we report this to Lord Zhuque and let her determine whether Lord Hao is genuine or not?"

“No need,” Li Guanghui said. “Lord Zhuque is discerning; why would she take the Wang family’s heir as her last disciple? Besides, I just complained last time and was severely criticized by Lord Zhuque. She already knows that we don’t get along. If I report this to Lord Zhuque again, not only will I not be able to bring him down, but I’ll also get myself into trouble. It’s very likely that Lord Zhuque will discover our animosity and I’ll be summoned back to China. Coming to China is not easy; we should take this opportunity to plunder treasures. Let’s not meddle in other people’s business.”

"Lord Li Guanghui is absolutely right. China is a great place to make money. We've only been here two days, and we've already received quite a bit of gold and silver from the wealthy people here. If we extort a little more from them, we'll make even more money. China is truly a beautiful place." As he spoke, Li Guanghui's translator also laughed.

That night, Ye Shuang couldn't sleep. He wandered around the Ye Family Manor and saw Old Gu Tongjia peacefully recuperating in his room, while the Empress Dowager casually smoked, admiring an expensive painting and calligraphy. After thinking for a moment, Ye Shuang returned to his room and punched the wall hard.

That's going too far. Wang Xi is really going too far.

Back then, he used his status in the provincial capital to dominate me, but now that he's sided with Aurora, Wang Xi has become his superior. He knows the depth of the grudge between him and Wang Xi. And he betrayed the Ye family for personal gain. Now that Wang Xi is his boss, he certainly won't let him get away with it.

No, I have to find a way to deal with him. This Wang Xi is so arrogant, daring to use the alias "Little Good Guy" and openly appear before me as a high-ranking member of Aurora. If I can't get rid of him, I'll have lived in vain.

Thinking of this, Ye Shuang came up with a plan.

The next morning, I found myself in the villa where Xi'er and I had once lived. This villa was prepared for me by Xi'er. When she learned that An Yao was going to bring me home to marry her, Xi'er happily decorated the villa for me. From a young age, she knew she would marry me and become my wife. And being a good wife was the duty of a girl from the Ye family. She was ready to be my wife, to be a good daughter-in-law of the Wang family.

Now, because the Ye family's entire fortune has been swallowed up by Aurora, this villa has also become one of Aurora's properties. And I will officially become Aurora's ruler in northern China from now on. This villa has also been given to me by Aurora as my residence.

This place holds many memories for me and Xi'er. It was here that Xi'er and I first met. It was here that I almost made Xi'er cry. It was also here that Xi'er and I reconciled. She taught me to play the flute here, and we happily played together for a long time.

Lost in thought while sitting in the chair, I saw Ye Shuang walk in with a sinister look on her face.

"Hello, sir." Having already made up her mind, Ye Shuang's expression turned smug again. Meanwhile, Black Dragon and Young Master Bao, who were exercising, frowned when they saw Ye Shuang's shifty-eyed look.

"Shuang'er, is there something you need?" I smiled when I saw Ye Shuang's expression. I opened a bottle of Lafite next to me and slowly poured myself a small glass of red wine.

"Wang Xi, stop pretending with me!" Ye Shuang picked up the red wine I had poured and downed it in one gulp. Then, he sat down in the chair opposite me, looking at me as if in a show of defiance.

"I'm faking it?" I was surprised. I picked up the red wine and poured it into another glass, then picked up the glass and gently swirled it.

“Wang Xi, I already know. You are an undercover agent for Aurora. You are lurking inside Aurora, waiting for an opportunity to overthrow it and restore your Wang family’s power, right?” Ye Shuang said coldly, looking at me.

“You’re right, but what does that have to do with you?” I looked at him with a smile.

"Because I am a member of Aurora, your existence threatens me. If you obediently serve me and stay here as a puppet, then I will not expose your identity. But if you dare to disobey, I will tell Li Guanghui your identity right now and have Aurora kill you!" Ye Shuang said coldly.

"Oh, so you were trying to threaten me." I laughed.

"That's right, I'm threatening you today. If you dare disobey me, I'll reveal your identity right now!" Ye Shuang thought she had me cornered and looked at me coldly.

"How do you want me to do what you say?" I asked, swirling the red wine in my glass.

"Find a way to bring your wife Xi'er back to me. I need pills, a lot of pills. I've already grasped the feeling of fusion, and I'm going to break through to the Heartbeat Realm!" Ye Shuang said coldly, looking at me.

"What if I don't?" I smiled after hearing Ye Shuang's words.

"If you don't listen to me, I'll reveal your identity," Ye Shuang sneered.

"Fuck you, then go ahead!" With a splash, I poured the entire glass of red wine onto Ye Shuang's face.

Chapter 316 The Loneliness of a Master

The aroma of wine filled the air, but Ye Shuang's face looked as if it were smeared with blood. He appeared utterly disheveled at that moment. He looked at me with surprise, which gradually turned into astonishment. Then, his face began to contort, like a wolf that had just devoured its prey and was fiercely intimidating any enemy who tried to steal it.

As for me, I naturally don't take him seriously. I am a dragon, and even the Four Heavenly Kings of the Aurora and the Six Heavenly Demons, the confidants of Oda Seiji, are not worth my attention.

However, Ye Shuang still thought I was the top-tier martial arts master I used to be. In fact, when he beat me, I wasn't even a top-tier martial arts master; I was a low-tier martial arts master who was spitting blood after being struck by him three times.

At this moment, Ye Shuang was extremely angry. Feeling the red wine streaming down his face, he gathered his inner energy in his palm, preparing to kill me with a single blow.

Even if I'm a high-ranking member of Aurora, so what? He's already a master above the gods. If he makes a move, could I possibly withstand even one strike?

However, just as he was about to make his move, I casually said to him, "I am a high-ranking member of Aurora, and the closed-door disciple of Vermilion Bird, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Aurora. If you dare to touch me, I think Vermilion Bird will definitely bring her Seven Constellations and a group of Aurora's experts to kill you, right?"

"Offending the Four Heavenly Kings' lineage? You'll probably have to live like a rat hiding in a tunnel for the rest of your life, won't you?"

"Then I'll expose your secrets. I don't believe everyone at Aurora is a fool!" Hearing my words, Ye Shuang became completely clear-headed. He knew that if he killed me now, his life would be over. Only by exposing my identity could he kill me. Thinking this, he gave me a venomous look and left.

As soon as Ye Shuang left, Hei Long and Young Master Bao immediately came over and said, "Brother Xi, this kid is really asking for death, daring to threaten you. But if he talks nonsense, will it affect us? I think we should have killed him just now. Anyway, you're already a master above the gods, and the two of us are also top-tier god-level masters. The three of us working together to deal with him, although it will come at a price, we can still kill him. That way, he won't ruin our plans."

After listening to Black Dragon and Young Master Bao's words, I smiled and downed the remaining half-bottle of red wine in one gulp. Then, I lit a cigarette and said coldly, "Do you know why I'm called 'Little Good Guy'?"

"To lurk in the aurora," said Young Master Bao.

"No, it's because I promised Little Good Guy I'd avenge him that I told them my name was Little Good Guy. I will destroy Aurora in Little Good Guy's name. I will kill Oda Seiji in Little Good Guy's name. If it weren't for avenging Little Good Guy, I wouldn't even bother coming up with a fake name. My real name, Wang Xi, sounds much better, doesn't it?"

“Ye Shuang, he poses no threat to us. Aurora won’t trust him; they’d rather believe me than a traitor from the Ye family. The reason I didn’t kill him just now is because he still holds a certain position within Aurora. He’s a master above the gods, and killing him would come at a price. I’ll torture him little by little, driving him to a mental breakdown. Finally, I’ll easily eliminate this traitor.” As I spoke, my eyes gleamed.

"Brother Xi, you're so cunning!" Upon hearing my words, Young Master Bao's expression changed.

“If I didn’t have some special abilities of my own, how could I be worthy of being a prince?” I said.

"Hehe, that's true. You seem a bit slow, but you're actually more shrewd than anyone else. You're so damn calculating, I love it." Black Dragon grinned mischievously and gave me a big kiss on the cheek.

"Damn, what the hell are you doing?" I exclaimed in surprise, staring wide-eyed at Black Dragon.

"Don't let your cleverness fool you. If you dare to play tricks on us, we'll kill you!" Black Dragon grinned wickedly at me and immediately started arguing with me.

"Get lost!" After being bullied by the black dragon, I cursed helplessly.

"You dare to swear?" Upon hearing my words, Young Master Bao immediately pressed me hard onto the sofa.

"Damn it, get lost!" Seeing that Young Master Bao was also bullying me, I quickly pushed him away with all my might. But the two of them were fighting too fiercely, so I had no choice but to call for help, "An Yao, Wang Huan, come and save me!"

"Damn, your Wang family is just showing off because you have so many brothers and sisters, isn't it?" Black Dragon and Young Master Bao were surprised when they saw me calling for help.

"Yes, my Wang family has many offspring!" Wang Huan immediately rushed over, pulled the black dragon off me, and pinned it to the ground.

"Sigh..." Seeing us brothers making a ruckus, An Yao stepped out from the shadows and sighed helplessly.

Meanwhile, Ye Shuang indeed went to Li Guanghui to complain. Standing in Li Guanghui's mansion, Ye Shuang angrily said to Li Guanghui, "Brother Li, I, Ye Shuang, swear to heaven that 'Little Good Guy' is Wang Xi, the heir of the Wang family. That 'Little Good Guy' is Wang Xi's younger brother, and his father was killed by our Aurora. Now he's come to seek revenge, to help Little Good Guy get revenge. He's using Little Good Guy's alias; his real name is Wang Xi. Please believe me, you must kill that 'Little Good Guy'."

Ye Shuang kept talking, and Li Guanghui's translator quickly explained to him. But to Li Guanghui, Ye Shuang's words sounded somewhat incoherent, constantly referring to himself as a "good person" and Wang Xi. To him, it was like a tongue twister. He already disliked dealing with Chinese people because of the language barrier, and he deeply despised Ye Shuang for betraying the Ye family. Now, not only did Ye Shuang keep bothering him, but he even dared to rudely call him "Brother Li."

Who was Li Guanghui? He was a descendant of the Li dynasty. Although not a direct descendant of the Li family, he was still a relative, belonging to the royal bloodline. And this lowly Chinese man dared to address him as brother. It was utterly tactless; it made Li Guanghui feel his status had been lowered.

After listening to Ye Shuang ramble on and on, Li Guanghui frowned and said, "Alright, I understand."

"Brother Li, don't you believe me? Wang Xi, he really is an undercover agent for Aurora!" Ye Shuang said anxiously, her voice becoming extremely harsh.

"Damn it, are you trying to put me under Lady Suzaku's distrust? Lady Suzaku hates men complaining like women. Do you want me to go to Lady Suzaku and get criticized because of your slightest suspicion? Whether that little good guy is Wang Xi or not, it's not your right to doubt him. Our Aurora's affairs are none of your business!" Li Guanghui finally got annoyed and picked up his pistol, pointing it at Ye Shuang's head.

Glancing at the dark muzzle of the gun, Ye Shuang's eyes narrowed involuntarily. At that moment, regret finally welled up in his heart; he hated himself for betraying the Ye family.
