Chapter 212
"Elder Jiang, there is no need to trouble you..."
Su Yan's bright, beautiful eyes were full of brilliance, but the polite instinct she had cultivated in the business world for a long time made her subconsciously decline.
However, before the words were finished, two dull sounds of knees hitting the ground came from behind her.
Zhou Qiang and Wang Qi didn't dare to look at Jiang Ye's eyes at all, and they knelt down without hesitation, their knees hitting the blue stone floor heavily, making a dull sound that set one's teeth on edge.
"Miss Su, we were wrong... we were wrong!!!"
"It was all that Zhang Cheng, it was he who instigated us to come..."
Both of them were full of terrified remorse, their mouths emitting trembling pleas for mercy, pushing all the blame onto Zhang Cheng.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Cheng, who was shaking like chaff, turned ashen.
He also knelt on both knees without hesitation, and the face that had been wearing a gloomy, cold smile a second ago instantly streamed with old tears, and he wailed in a sharp, hoarse voice:
"Miss Su!!!"
"I was wrong, it was my pig-oil-covered heart..."
"Please spare this old man's life!!!"
He knew that at this time, any defense was meaningless; only by being humble to the extreme could there be a glimmer of survival.
He had always been shrewd and had long since figured out Su Yan's temperament.
This eldest miss of the Su family, although she has means in business, still carries a bit of gentleness in her bones and eats soft but not hard.
So he wailed while knocking his head heavily against the floor.
The force was so great that it actually cracked the hard blue stone brick, and bright red blood flowed down along the deep wrinkles on his forehead.
Zhou Qiang and Wang Qi looked at each other, dumbfounded.
Apparently, they didn't expect that this shameless old thing, Zhang Cheng, had this move.
The two didn't dare to delay, and followed suit, smashing their heads heavily against the floor.
When it came to knocking heads, they were no weaker than anyone!
In order to outdo Zhang Cheng, they even knocked harder.
In an instant, the sound of knocking heads in the Su family guest hall came one after another, mixed with the three people's scrambling wails and pleas for mercy, turning into a mess.
Su Yan was stunned.
Since she took the helm of the Su family, she had seen many shameless people.
However... this was the first time she had encountered Embracing the Pill Realm martial artists who could be shameless to this extent.
Clearly, a moment ago they were still arrogant and bossy in front of her demanding dividends, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into three poor worms kneeling on the ground wishing they could smash their heads.
These three really didn't want a shred of shame.
She subconsciously looked at Jiang Ye, who was indifferent beside her, and the surging waves in her heart couldn't be calmed down no matter what.
She knew the reason for all this was because of Jiang Ye's appearance.
"Is this Elder Jiang's deterrent power..."
Su Yan exclaimed in her heart.
Just by showing his face, he actually scared three Embracing the Pill Realm martial artists like this.
The Su family steward and guards to the side, besides their awe of Jiang Ye, were full of irrepressible joy.
These three consultants usually relied on their cultivation to show off in the Su family; how could they have imagined that they would have such a day.
Jiang Ye looked at the three people's tearful performance with a playful expression.
Unexpectedly, he ran into three old actors at once.
Su Yan was annoyed by the sound of knocking heads coming one after another, and finally frowned and shouted coldly: "Get out immediately!!!"
The three were granted amnesty, knocked their heads several more times heavily, and then scrambled out of the guest hall, not even bothering to pat the dust off their robes.
Jiang Ye looked at the three escaping with an indifferent gaze, a hint of imperceptible cold light flashing in the depths of his eyes.
This little girl Su Yan, her heart is still not ruthless enough.
However, he didn't say much.
Seeing the guest hall return to calm, Su Yan quickly invited Jiang Ye to sit down and personally poured him a cup of clear tea.
Amidst the curling tea fragrance, she shook her head slightly, her tone carrying a bit of embarrassment and self-mockery:
"Elder Jiang... I'm sorry, it really made you laugh..."
Jiang Ye sipped his tea, took a token from his sleeve with a calm expression, placed it on the table, and smiled faintly:
"Miss Su, since I accepted a True Yang Ginseng from you, you and I can be considered to have some fate."
"This is my token, you keep it."
"In the future, if you really encounter any troublesome matters, you can take this token to the Tianqing Sect and find a person named Qin Lie."
Su Yan was stunned, looking at the black iron token on the table with a trance-like gaze.
After a good while, she came back to her senses.
Heavens...
That is Elder Jiang's token?!
Holding this token means that she has put on Elder Jiang's tiger skin...
From now on, even if the Su family's foundation is shallow, there cannot be any family or any Embracing the Pill Realm martial artist in this prefecture city who dares to underestimate the Su family.
Things like today's Embracing the Pill Realm consultants joining forces to force the palace are even more impossible to happen.
"Elder Jiang... this... this..."
Su Yan pursed her moist red lips, her voice even trembling.
For a moment, she didn't know what to say to thank him.
Clearly, that True Yang Ginseng was just to thank Jiang Ye for saving the Su family from the evil bandits of the Black Wind Stronghold by mistake.
Never expected...
It actually became the Su family's protective talisman.
"Miss Su, I have matters to attend to, so I won't stay long, see you again in the future."
Jiang Ye took a deep look at Su Yan, whose beautiful eyes were red, and stood up unhurriedly.
"Elder Jiang... I'll see you off..."
By the time Su Yan woke up and wanted to see the guest off, that withered and upright figure had already disappeared silently from the guest hall.
Prefecture city.
Inside a quiet alley.
"This time it was really almost over..."
"Damn it, this Su family actually managed to get a connection with Elder Jiang of the Tianqing Sect..."
Zhou Qiang and Wang Qi gasped with lingering fear.
Zhang Cheng to the side gritted his teeth with a gloomy expression:
"What the hell..."
"The Su family is an upstart from a small county town, how could they climb up to such a big shot..."
Zhang Cheng wiped the blood off his forehead and sneered with a hateful expression:
"It must be that woman Su Yan..."
"Using her body to hook up with that Elder Jiang!"
"Otherwise, how would such a big shot condescend to go to an upstart like the Su family!"
Zhou Qiang and Wang Qi looked at each other and nodded repeatedly in agreement:
"Right! That's the only possibility! Look at how she pretends to be so serious on weekdays; who knows how many tricks she used in private..."
Zhang Cheng spat out a mouthful of blood foam:
"Damn it... usually like a saint..."
"Behind the scenes, she is actually a shameless slut..."
Before the words were finished.
Boom—
A killing intent, extremely yin and cold, like a cold wind blowing from the depths of the Nine Nether Hell, descended silently, instantly shrouding the entire alley.
The three's dirty words were cut off as if by a knife, stopping abruptly.
