Chapter 33: Encountering an Opponent

Clan Chief now has no good feeling toward Ye Qingyun at all. Having a little achievement, he actually returns to the clan to throw his weight around, and even dallies with a married woman—simply a disgrace to the clan.

Clan Chief also secretly admires the forefather's vision in his heart.

After Clan Chief left, others also left one after another. In a short while, the huge Grand Hall only had Ye Qingyun and Ye Xinyu left.

Ye Qingyun seeing this situation also knows that the elders are expressing they do not support him. However he has confidence; the Ye Clan wants to win in the Clan Competition, still need to rely on him.

"Hmph! These old fogies actually protect that Ye Liuyun! Junior sister, rest assured, if they don't deal with that Ye Liuyun, I won't go to the Clan Competition—let's see what they do!"

Ye Qingyun knows his own strength, so he doesn't dare truly offend the elders; he directly goes to find Ye Liuyun to fight.

He can only rely on not participating in the Clan Competition to threaten the elders into compliance.

The Clan Chief obviously also thought of this; after leaving the hall, he directly went to find Ye Liuyun.

"I'm afraid Ye Qingyun will use participating in the Clan Competition as an excuse to blackmail the clan into punishing you!" The Clan Chief didn't beat around the bush, got straight to the point.

"What realm is he at?" Ye Liuyun asked.

"True Origin Double. However the foundation is unstable; probably just raised by pills recently."

"I will definitely surpass him. Even without him, it won't delay the competition." Ye Liuyun said firmly.

"Hmm. Rest assured, we'll act as if he doesn't exist. After all, he's a person from the Heavenly Fortune Royal Mansion; we also don't need to offend him. Just give it your all in the competition!"

Seeing Ye Liuyun confident, the Clan Chief also felt relieved.

As for Ye Qingyun, no need to worry about him; anyway he'll soon have to return to the Heavenly Fortune Royal Mansion.

After the Clan Chief left, Ye Liuyun continued cultivating, preparing for the Clan Competition, completely not putting Ye Qingyun in his mind.

On the day of the Clan Competition, everyone gathered early in the Grand Hall, but Ye Qingyun didn't show up for a long time.

The Clan Chief sighed, then let Ye Liuyun and them set off. As for Ye Qingyun, he also couldn't be bothered to manage him.

Meanwhile Ye Qingyun was still at Ye Xinyu's home waiting for someone to come fetch him.

But waiting left and right, no one came!

Finally he sent someone to inquire, only to learn that everyone else had already set off, basically no one paid him any heed.

Ye Qingyun grew angry from embarrassment. "How unreasonable! I'll go see what abilities Ye Liuyun has, that the clan values him so much."

"Brother Qingyun, why not strike him during the Clan Competition? That would also let the Ye Clan know they can't do without you!" Ye Xinyu advised from the side.

"Not bad! Come on, I have an invitation; I'll take you there!"

Saying that, the two also hurriedly rushed to Chengzhu Fu.

When Ye Liuyun and them arrived at Chengzhu Fu, they happened to run into Liang Xue.

"Huh? Why are you also here?" Ye Liuyun was a bit curious.

"I'm also from Fengyang City! Why can't I come? This Clan Competition isn't limited to just you three clans!" Liang Xue laughed.

Ye Liuyun thought that made sense; seeing she was alone, he invited: "Why not sit with us? It'll be livelier with more people!"

"Sure!" Liang Xue gladly accepted, walking into Chengzhu Fu together with the Ye Clan members.

The Mo family members were already seated and waiting.

Ye Liuyun didn't expect to actually see an acquaintance at the Mo family's place—Mo Yuqing.

Mo Yuqing saw him come, nodded from afar, and greeted him.

Meanwhile, the person beside Mo Yuqing, upon seeing Ye Liuyun, shouted: "Ye Liuyun! I've been looking everywhere for you, and you actually dare to come?"

Ye Liuyun was taken aback and asked: "Who are you? What do you want with me?"

"Hmph, you're pretending well! I'm Mo Tianli; Mo Tianyi is my cousin brother. Last time he went to find you, he never came back. Tell me, did you kill him? Where is he?"

Only then did Ye Liuyun realize. If Mo Tianli hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten Mo Tianyi altogether.

However, he didn't move the corpse—it's still lying in the street. Maybe it hasn't been discovered yet.

At this moment, Liang Xue sent him a Transmission Voice: "I've cleaned up Mo Tianyi's corpse for you!"

Ye Liuyun nodded without changing expression, pretended to think for a moment, then said to Mo Tianli: "Mo Tianyi? Sorry, I've never seen him; maybe you got the wrong person?"

Mo Tianli also was taken aback: "Could it be that Ye Liuyun really hasn't seen Mo Tianyi?"

Immediately he asked: "Then where did Mo Tianyi go?"

Ye Liuyun smiled and said: "What does where he went have to do with me? I'm not acquainted with him; why are you asking me?"

Saying that, he then ignored Mo Tianli, and together with the Ye Clan members walked to the designated spot and sat down.

"Tianli, what's going on?" someone beside Mo Tianli asked.

"Last time Tianyi went to find this kid to seek revenge, he went and never returned, also unknown where he went. I want to find this kid to take revenge, but I also have no evidence proving it was him!" Mo Tianli shook his head and sighed.

Upon hearing that, everyone said: "Never mind whether it was this kid who did it; later we'll just directly attack and cripple him!" Someone nearby suggested.

"I heard he's first in the Ye Clan Competition." Mo Yuqing reminded everyone.

And Mo Tianli also saw that the Ye Clan members all respected Ye Liuyun greatly, obviously taking him as leader. Thus he said: "This kid probably isn't that simple..."

"Who is that person in the Mo family meditating with closed eyes?" Ye Liuyun saw behind the Mo family crowd a person constantly meditating with closed eyes.

Ye Tianci and them all looked over, but all shook their heads. If Ye Liuyun didn't mention it, they wouldn't have noticed this person.

Liang Xue however said: "That person is Mo Tianheng. Everyone knows Mo Tianli is first in the Mo Clan Competition, but actually the strongest person in the Mo family is Mo Tianheng. He didn't even participate in the Clan Competition."

"I can't tell what realm he's at!" Ye Tianci said.

"I can't tell either! But look at the air disturbance around him—it's as if he's merged with the air. This person is not simple! You guys, if you encounter him, be extra careful." Ye Liuyun reminded everyone.

At that moment, Mo Tianheng seemed to sense something, suddenly opened his eyes and gazed at Ye Liuyun!

Their eyes met, and each withdrew their gaze.

"Strong!" Ye Liuyun thought inwardly.

"An opponent!" Mo Tianheng muttered, then closed his eyes again.

The Mo family disciples, seeing Mo Tianheng regard Ye Liuyun as an opponent, couldn't help but look up at Ye Liuyun with higher regard.

And those who had just said they would deal with Ye Liuyun, unexpectedly were slapped in the face in an instant.

"Could it be that Ye Liuyun is really that strong? Even Mo Tianheng treats him as an opponent!"

"Mo Tianli secretly thought in his heart, his face also uncertain. For a moment he couldn't decide, then a while later he wondered whether he should actively challenge Ye Liuyun."

"Not long after Ye Liuyun and his group took their seats, the City Lord's daughter Qin Ziyan appeared."

"As for the Chengzhu Fu sending guards to assassinate him, Ye Liuyun naturally wouldn't have a good impression."

"Only seeing Qin Ziyan dressed in a purple robe, she appeared splendid and magnificent, fully displaying the bearing of the Chengzhu Fu's young lady. Her figure and appearance, among women, could also be considered first-rate."

"However, Ye Liuyun felt her attire was a bit too extravagant. So he merely glanced at her and then withdrew his gaze."

"But in the eyes of other young men, she was like a goddess. Even several other male disciples of the Ye Clan stared at Qin Ziyan without blinking, to the point of drooling."

"\"How come? You don't want to look a few more times? \" Liang Xue saw Ye Liuyun unmoved, and secretly felt a bit pleased."

"\"Showing off to win favor! \" Ye Liuyun sent a Transmission Voice to Liang Xue."

"Liang Xue was greatly startled!"

"According to reason, Ye Liuyun's cultivation level shouldn't allow Divine Sense transmission. Usually many at True Essence First Level don't have souls strong enough to reach that level of Divine Sense transmission."
