C257 Out of the Way
Fu Rou wanted Ning Jing to slap herself, but she had already let Ning Jing go. It was one thing for Ning Jing to be disobedient, but what right did Ye Xu have to say the words "I will protect these two."
If Fu Rou did not want to maintain the noble attitude of a royal princess, she would definitely scold "Who do you think you are?"!
However, although she did not directly curse, her face did not look very good either. She looked at Ye Xu and said coldly, "I am the royal princess. These two people are rude to me. I just want to teach them a lesson. Ye Xu, although you are Prime Minister Bai's man, but you can't get involved in my business for no reason."
"It is not without reason. I have interacted with Wang Keer before."
Ye Xu said. Just a moment ago, he suddenly remembered who Wang Keer was. Back in Sword Venerable Immortal's Inheritance, the young girl Tingting suddenly turned her head and looked very pretty.
Furthermore, the way Fu Rou acted in order to please Zhao Shen made him want to eat her.
"Oh, I didn't expect your relationship with girls to be so good."
Fu Rou glanced at Ye Xu and purposely said that the relationship between the two of them was very ambiguous. After that, she shifted her gaze to Yaoguang.
"How can you understand the heroic bearing of the young master? Is it strange that his luck with the ladies is so good?"
Yaoguang's cold voice sounded and made Fu Rou's face stiffen again.
She originally wanted to make this girl who had an outstanding appearance beside Ye Xu jealous, but she did not expect that this girl called Yaoguang did not mind at all and even had an expression of "My young master is very powerful, so what?"
Being looked down upon by Ye Xu was one thing, but she was also looked down upon by Ye Xu's little girl. Today, Fu Rou's stiff face was almost stiff.
Zhao Shen saw that Fu Rou couldn't defeat Ye Xu, and the coldness in his eyes became heavier and heavier. However, he was a man of Great Wu Country after all, and he knew that he couldn't offend Ye Xu for no reason.
"I'll let you off this time!"
Zhao Shen gave Ye Xu a disdainful look. After saying those words, he turned his body towards the third stone tablet.
It was too irrational to confront Ye Xu today. When he fully inherited the Cloud Creek Academy and gained control of the power, even if Ye Xu was Bai Qing's man, he would definitely teach him a lesson!
Before that, he had to display his talent with all his might, and make everyone listen to his orders!
Zhao Shen was comprehending the will of the third stone tablet. On the other side, Ye Xu walked to a mural at the side.
These murals were very simple and ancient, and they gave off a sense of nobility. In the murals, countless tiny people held torches and offered their hearts to a demon beast with one eye.
"What is this?" Ye Xu asked curiously.
Wang Xiu and Yaoguang shook their heads in confusion. They knew about the stone statue in Zhongnan Mountain, but they never knew there was such a mural here.
"Hmm? Let me see!" Wang Keer, who was standing at the side, suddenly had her eyes lit up. She ran over and observed from top to bottom. She exclaimed, "This is actually a mural from the ancient era!"
" You know this? " Ye Xu was a little surprised. Although he knew that the girl in front of him was not simple, he did not expect her to know this as well.
Wang Keer looked away from the mural. When she saw the appreciation in Ye Xu's eyes, she suddenly blushed and said, "Just a little bit."
She did not expect Ye Xu to recognize her, and also did not expect him to come out to protect her.
"What is on the surface of this mural?"
Wang Keer became serious when she heard Ye Xu's question. "This is a description of the scene of the sacrificial ceremony. When people in ancient times were unable to fight against demon beasts... Some people will be chosen to dig out the hearts of their clansmen and offer them to the demon beasts. If they seek protection or beg for mercy, the chosen clansmen would not be afraid. Because they believed that if they sacrificed their hearts to the demon beasts, they would obtain the same amount of power as the demon beasts in their next life. It's just that I don't know what the demon beast is. "
Ye Xu nodded. This was enough. He looked at the big black eyes without any emotion. Countless tiny tentacles stretched out from the surroundings, covering most of the murals.
When he saw the eyeball and saw it, Ye Xu felt slightly dizzy. It was as if the mural wanted to suck him in. That was why he was curious about what the mural was about.
"Ye Xu, thank you to Sister Ning Jing today."
Wang Keer twisted her clothes and said apologetically. Ning Jing bowed to Ye Xu solemnly to express her gratitude.1
Ye Xu felt that this little girl was very simple and easy to get along with. He shook his head and said, "I am just saying one sentence. The one who really saved people is Wang Xiu."
Ning Jing did not know what she was thinking. Her face turned red, but she also generously thanked Wang Xiu.
"No need." It seemed like this was the first time someone had thanked him in such a serious manner. Wang Xiu's face turned red with suspicion.
"Let's go and comprehend the will of the stone statue."
Ye Xu saw that he was not done thanking him, so he interrupted him. Everyone walked over together.
Just as they arrived in front of the stone statue, they heard Fu Rou pretending to be delicate voice, "Young Master Zhao is indeed worthy of being the beloved disciple of the dean of Cloud Creek Academy. He actually comprehended all of the stone statues within 45 breaths. Having grasped five of the stone statues' will, I am far from being as good as you."
"Thank you for letting me win. I am just a little ahead of you. In my opinion, there is no girl in the entire Great Wu Country who is more powerful than the princess who can comprehend the will of the stone statues to such an extent."
Their voices were neither loud nor low, and it was very likely that they were deliberately saying it for them to hear. It was not shameful to say such an exaggerated word. Ye Xu chuckled. This wave of business talk was really disgusting.
"Young Master Zhao is being modest. I just don't know how strong the person Prime Minister Bai introduced is. It can't be that he is just putting on airs, right?"
Fu Rou covered her mouth and laughed lightly, as if she had just found Ye Xu and his group. She said in embarrassment, "I wonder if Young Master Ye can show off his skills?"
"Sorry, I am not free."
Ye Xu did not give Fu Rou any face and directly refused.
He was not a monkey fooling around and still wanted to show off his skills. If he had the time, he might as well come and cultivate.
Fu Rou had been slapped in the face too many times today and was somewhat numb, but in the end, she was unhappy in her heart.
Zhao Shen's smile disappeared, and he said indifferently, "Mr. Ye rejected it so decisively. Could it be that his strength is too weak and he doesn't dare to comprehend it?"
"It must be so." Lee Ze had always been on Zhao Shen's side. At this moment, in order to please Zhao Shen, he didn't hold back.
"Furthermore, among the young generation in Great Wu Country, who can be compared to Young Master Zhao? Ye Xu's behavior is nothing more than not daring to confront you face to face, fearing that he will reveal the fact that he is useless."
Incompetence?
Ye Xu smiled in his heart. In this world, there were always people who were either courting death or on the path of seeking death. There were even people who changed their ways to seek death, rushing to seek death.
He didn't make any meaningless rebuttal. He just walked step by step to Lee Ze. Lee Ze could feel the cold Qi behind him, so he stopped talking. He looked at Ye Xu with a frightened expression and said, "What are you trying to do? I am the young master of Lee family!"
"What are you doing?" Ye Xu laughed in his heart. This Lee Ze was actually so timid. He didn't even do anything before he looked terrified.
Without any unnecessary communication, Ye Xu only said coldly, "You are blocking my way."
