"Ye Nanxiao, can you walk a little faster?" Long Aotian rubbed his temples and said helplessly to Ye Nanxiao, who was haggling with the stall owner at a small market.
Wasn't this person here to ask me to stand up for the Luo family in the conflict between the Luo and Shen families?
How can this person not be worried at all?
"Hey boss, are you ripping off tourists? That's not fair!" Ye Nanxiao said, squatting in front of the stall.
The stall owner, an old man with small eyes, looked alarmed upon hearing Ye Nanxiao's words and quickly said, "Sir, you can't say that! I'm just a small business owner, barely making ends meet. This flint is thirty gold soul coins, that's the lowest I can offer!"
"No way, you're asking for the moon. You want thirty gold soul coins for a single stone?" Ye Nanxiao said with a smile and a shake of his head.
Seeing the imposing couple standing behind Ye Nanxiao, the old man with small eyes didn't want to continue arguing with him about the price. He held up five fingers and said, "I'll give you a discount of five gold soul coins at most, sir!"
"Only five gold soul coins? Sure, wrap it up." Ye Nanxiao nodded and said.
The small-eyed old man "..."
This person isn't here to get a discount; they're clearly here to sever a major artery!
"No way, sir! I have young children and elderly parents to support! Twenty gold soul coins!" The old man with small eyes hugged himself tightly, looking like he couldn't be bullied.
"Ten gold soul coins, plus these two stones that look alright." Ye Nanxiao reached out and picked up two palm-sized, pale yellow pebbles from the stall.
"Alright! I'll treat this as making a friend!" The old man with small eyes quickly took the money bag that Ye Nanxiao handed over and gave the remaining two stones to Ye Nanxiao.
"We're friends, after all," Ye Nanxiao said with a grin, taking the stone away.
Vina watched with great interest; she rarely saw such a lively scene and found it very amusing.
Her gaze then fell on the stalls next door.
Long Aotian grabbed his restless fiancée and sighed, "Aren't you worried that your friend is already under pressure from the Shen family? Shen He of the Shen family is no good person."
Ye Nanxiao carefully put away the three stones he had picked up: one firestone and two lightning-struck stones.
"Don't worry, we'll just wait until Shenhe arrives and let him be arrogant for a while."
Upon hearing this, Long Aotian was puzzled. "Isn't that your friend?"
Vina spoke up to answer Long Aotian's question for Ye Nanxiao: "If we had appeared from the beginning, we wouldn't have been able to help the eldest son of the Shen family solve his problem. It would have only made the world think that the eldest son of the Shen family had a powerful backer and that's why he came back. Once we left or revealed our original purpose, the Shen family would have made a comeback and continued to target the eldest son of the Shen family."
"At that time, we won't offer any help."
Ye Nanxiao nodded and snapped his fingers. "That's it."
If we support Shen Ciyuan from the very beginning, it will only make the Shen family wary for a while.
What Ye Nanxiao wanted was for Shen Ciyuan to break the shackles that the Shen family had placed on him.
Let the Shen family know just how powerful this useless young master they kicked out is now.
"I've heard that the eldest son of the Shen family didn't inherit the family's martial spirit, and his own martial spirit is just a mirror. Are you so sure that the eldest son can defeat the current five sons of the Shen family?" Vina asked.
After guessing that the companion Ye Nanxiao wanted to help was the abandoned son of the Shen family back then, she had someone investigate the events of that year again.
"Would a child born to an ordinary commoner woman, who hasn't yet inherited a martial spirit, be a match for Shenhe and the other four?"
The five sons of the Shen family are all outstanding geniuses. Among them, three of them have inherited the Shen family's martial soul, and although the remaining two have mutated their martial souls, it is a benign mutation.
How to deal with Shen Ciyuan's mirror martial soul?
Vina was very curious because, judging from Ye Nanxiao's performance, he had a lot of confidence in Shen Ciyuan.
Luojiafang District.
"What do you think about setting up three flower shops at each end of Second Street? That way, customers won't get tired of seeing the same flowers." Luo Xinyao held a street map in her hand, intending to renovate the Luo family's neighborhood in Tiandou City.
"I think you're right, but could you please let go of my hands and get off me?" Shen Ciyuan said weakly.
His hands were bound with a thin gauze scarf, his thighs supported Luo Xinyao's weight, and his nose was occasionally teased by a strand of hair.
Luo Xinyao shifted slightly, changed her posture, and brought her pretty face close to Shen Ciyuan's. She pointed to her cheek with her small hand, giving a clear indication, with a deep smile in her eyes.
Shen Ciyuan felt as if a balloon was being inflated inside him, constantly rising to its critical point.
"Yaoyao, stop fooling around, come down now." Shen Ciyuan lowered his head helplessly and gave her a kiss.
"I didn't tie you up. Do you think I can stop you from leaving?" Luo Xinyao reached out and pinched Shen Ciyuan's chin, poking it with her jade-like fingers.
Shen Ciyuan looked at the thin gauze scarves on his wrists, then glanced at the cloud-piercing vine holding a dumbbell on his left, and fell silent.
It seems that Luo Xinyao really shouldn't have gotten her hands on Ma Xiaotao's damn secret manual.
"Judging by the time, the Shen family should be arriving soon. We should get ready." Luo Xinyao glanced out the window and then stood up.
Shen Ciyuan breathed a sigh of relief, then his expression became complicated.
The Shen family, the Shen family.
My mother must be doing pretty well, right?
I heard that she later found someone who loved her.
What about the father?
Shen Ciyuan always held a glimmer of hope for the word "father," even though he had never received any warmth from it.
"Let's go." Luo Xinyao reached out and pulled Shen Ciyuan, her small hand tightly gripping his large hand, as if afraid that she would lose the warmth of his large hand at any moment.
At the same time, Shenhe also led his men into the Luo family's neighborhood.
"Seal off all entrances and exits to the district. No one is allowed to enter or leave without my order," Shenhe said coldly.
Half of the crowd behind him immediately dispersed.
Shenhe took out a mirror, tidied his appearance, and then smashed the mirror.
News of the siege of the neighborhood quickly reached Luo Xinyao's ears, and Shenhe also met the two of them.
"Yaoyao, why didn't you say you were back? I booked a banquet at Jade Pavilion. Chef Jin Dao will be cooking for you. Let's have a welcome dinner tonight." Shenhe flashed a smile he had practiced many times, ignoring Shen Ciyuan standing next to Luo Xinyao.
Several servants behind him, with keen insight, raised the bouquets they had prepared beforehand, while a few others acted as the atmosphere-setter, shouting encouragement.
Luo Xinyao reached out and straightened Shen Ciyuan's collar, then wrapped her arms around his neck, making him look into her eyes.
"Go beat that guy, then come back and cook for me. I want fish tonight." Luo Xinyao gazed at Shen Ciyuan with deep affection, her red lips gently parting.
Upon witnessing this scene, Shenhe's smile vanished instantly, and veins bulged on his forehead.
"My dear brother, are you unable to make a living outside and are you preparing to come back and ask Father for a woodshed?" Shenhe put on a fake smile again and said gently.
But beneath that gentle exterior lay a powerful killing intent.
"According to your age, you should call me brother, but I have to understand that you didn't have a normal mother to teach you when you were young. Of course, it's also possible that a genetic problem caused your brain to not develop properly, making it difficult for you to listen to the teachings in school," Shen Ciyuan said with a standard smile.

When it comes to trash talk, he's seriously studied under the three hooligans of Austria.
He learned everything from Su Rang's sharp tongue, Xu Zhen's bluntness, and Ye Nanxiao's verbal sparring without using any vulgar language.
Shenhe, who grew up in a pampered environment, is his opponent?
"You! Very good!" Shenhe could no longer maintain the fake smile on his face. He curled his fingers into a claw and charged towards Shen Ciyuan with his soul power.
Shen Ciyuan assumed a stance, deftly deflecting Shen He's attack.
Shenhe looked down on Shen Ciyuan and had no intention of using his martial soul, as did Shen Ciyuan.
"Useless trash! I am a Soul Saint!" Shenhe roared, attacking Shen Ciyuan's vital points with every move.
Shen Ciyuan calmly deflected Shenhe's attack, while simultaneously offering a sarcastic remark.
"Haven't you eaten yet, Young Master Shen?"
"Is this the tactic you use to deal with those women in the Dream of the Red Chamber? So gentle in undressing?"
"Are you sure you can handle it, Greyhound?"
Shenhe's face was ashen, and his eyes reflected boundless killing intent.
"You piece of trash, how dare you insult me?!"
Seeing that Shen He's mindset had been largely influenced by him, Shen Ciyuan suddenly changed his offensive strategy, instantly transforming his defense into a strong offensive.
Shen He's expression changed drastically. In terms of martial arts, Shen Ciyuan had actually suppressed him, and he was gradually unable to withstand the fierce attacks.
"Impossible! My master is the Empire's Honored Douluo! How could I be inferior to this lowly bastard!" Shenhe comforted himself.
However, the killing techniques that Shen Ciyuan learned were from Ye Nanxiao and Feng Shiyi, not just pretty empty moves.
Within twenty moves of Shen Ciyuan's change of offensive strategy, Shenhe was forced into a series of defeats.
"Snapped!"
Shenhe suddenly felt a heat on his right cheek, followed by intense pain from the hot spot.
"You dare hit me!?" Shenhe looked incredulous.
Shen Ciyuan was bullied and abused by the five of them since he was a child. How dare this lowly bastard who swallows his anger?
"Huh, a grown man like you is wearing powder? You don't just visit the Dream of the Red Chamber, you also go to the Philosophy Tavern?" Shen Ciyuan looked at the fine white powder on his left hand and disdainfully used his soul power to wipe it away.
"Haha, big brother, looks like you've been listening to too much music lately, your skills have declined?"
Another young man, dressed in a black robe and bearing a striking resemblance to Shenhe, strode over.
Behind him were three young men, each dressed differently but bearing a striking resemblance.
The five sons of the Shen family have now all gathered together.
Shenhe glanced coldly at the four people who were walking towards him, took out a bottle of potion from his personal storage soul tool, and applied it to his face.
His face is an important passport to the Dream of the Red Chamber.
"This person has already left the family, could you please move aside? I have an appointment with Sister Luo at Guanyunlou for dinner," Shen Kang said with a forced smile.
The Luo family members immediately tensed up, as the five sons of the Shen family had brought quite a few people.
Luo Yi slowly walked to Luo Xinyao's side. "Miss, we are surrounded."
Luo Xinyao nodded slightly, her gaze fixed on Shen Ciyuan. His lonely figure made her heart ache.
The five people from Shenhe lined up in a row, forming a semi-encirclement around Shen Ciyuan.
"If you know what's good for you, crawl out of Tiandou City on your hands and knees now," Shen Wen, the fourth son of the Shen family, said arrogantly.
