<h4>Chapter 1010: Eldritch Youngsters</h4>
Trantor: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
Xuan Bing grew up in Misty Cloud Pce. The toughest time for her would be the time when she was abandoned while she was just a child. Since she reached Dream Origin Stage and got in the martial world, she had always been decisive. Her cultivation rocketed greatly. In the end, she became one of the great master cultivators.
Since she seeded in martial arts, she had never encountered any misfortunes.
Nobody bullied her. When she traveled the martial world, she always came and left fast and left no traces. She had nevere down to see what the normal life was like.
There might be one hardship that she had been through. It was the fight against Xue Danru in the Land of Han-Yang. However, she won that fight. What she unluckily encountered actually brought her a special experience. She never felt regret. She even valued that experience. Besides, she got her illness removed and became even more powerful afterwards!
What she was getting through during this trip brought her different feelings. It was such a new and peculiar experience for a powerful figure who always stayed high in the world.
“Who are you?” Ye Xiao asked the three young men before Xuan Bing did.
It was a clear situation. He could clearly feel the anger rising on Xuan Bing. If she got to reach the three young men first, things would be rather nasty.
If the three young men had to face Xuan Bing directly, there wouldn’t be any easy way for them to end this situation. That was why even though Ye Xiao was also annoyed, he still started to talk before Xuan Bing did anything. In fact, he might have saved the three young men’s lives!
“This is Sky Treasure Mountain. The other side of this mountain is the Town of Ye. Who do you think we are?” One of the three young men put his hands behind the back and ndly said, “In the Town of Ye, there is a Ye n. In Ye n, there are three branches. The third branch has three young lords. Among the three young lords, there is a young lord who is the second eldest. People call him Second Young Lord Ye.”
Although he was young and looked a bit childish, he tried so hard to talk like an adult and an experienced person. He pretentiously said, “The Second Young Lord Ye’s name is Ye Liangchen.”
Then he smiled. “I am exactly Liangchen of Ye n.”
Ye Xiao and Han Bingxue both had twisted expressions.
Ye Xiao showed a weird face and looked at Han Bingxue. That was obvious. [I thought you are the most pretentious man in the world. I thought nobody could defeat you on this. It turns out there is a bloody mincing moron here. He may be even better than you at pretending. You must be careful, Brother.]
Han Bingxue knew Ye Xiao so well. He totally got what Ye Xiao meant only from Ye Xiao’s eyes. That was why his face turned dark when he looked at Ye Xiao’s eyes.
“Oh, the Second Young Lord Ye descends.” Ye Xiao ndly smiled.
When he saw the three young men, no wonder he felt familiar. They were from the Ye n.
“I don’t deserve that word.” Ye Liangchen seemed trying to be humble. Raising his chins, he said, “May I, Linagchen of Ye n, ask where you guys are from? It is my favorite to make friends all around the world.”
Han Bingxue said, as if he got a toothache, “The honorable Second Young Lord, may I ask if you always talk like this?”
Maybe he was a bit pissed by the look from Ye Xiao, so he actually talked quite respectfully. However, it was obviously sarcasm!
Even though it was obvious, he failed to express the right meaning. Ye Liangchen apparently didn’t get it. He smiled ndly, looked at the mountain range far away, kept his hands behind the back, and let his cyan robe fluttering the air. His hair was waving in the air. He said, “In my eyes, it doesn’t matter if the mountains are big or small, the water is clear or cloudy, people are noble or lowly, officials are influential or piddling. I, Liangchen of Ye n, treat everything with fairness. I talk as I am used to. I wonder why it concerns you?”
Ye Xiao felt that Ye Liangchen sounded really like a lunatic.
He talked and acted like he was ying on a stage, not in the real life.
Most terribly, he did it so well and left no ws.
That was the new record of being pretentious!
“I should like to ask, where you are from and where you are heading for?” Ye Liangchen talked casually with a big smile, “If there is anything I can help, please do ask. Ye n is thendlord of this ce. As a member of the Ye n, in the thousand milesnd, I, Liangchen of Ye n, am more or less an influential person. Maybe there is something I can offer you my help.”
It seemed humble, but in fact, it was utterly arrogant. Ye Xiao couldn’t bear it anymore. He said, “No. We are good. I don’t think we should bother you, the honorable Liangchen of Ye n.”
Apparently, he shouldn’t go on with it anymore. He was affected by the way Ye Liangchen talked!
The two other young men behind Ye Liangchen were showing a weird face. It seemed they were trying so hard not tough out loud.
One of them finally talked in a deep voice, “Ye Liangchen, are you ill again? The three of them are just being in a daze. Why do you pretend in front of three fools? We should better get home soon. It won’t bother me if you miss the dinner because of this, but I don’t want to starve. When are you going to quit being pretentious in front of strangers?”
The tough young man who talked made Ye Xiao realize he was the one who talked impolitely about them at the beginning.
Ye Liangchen turned around and red at his pal and ndly said, “Ye Meijing, we are sons of the same mother, but we have totally different personalities. I know what I am doing. I always do. Don’t push me, or I will operate all forces around one thousand miles against you. You know how horrible it can be. Be honest with yourselves, can you handle it?”
The tough young man, Ye Meijing, didn’t know whether he shouldugh or not. “Fine. I forgot that nobody could talk to you in humannguage. Just tell me. Are you leaving with us or not?”
“I, Liangchen, have my own n. I don’t need your nagging guidance.” Ye Liangchen spoke steadily, “We don’t know where they are from and where they are going. This is thend of our n. I certainly have to ask. What if they are spies? What if they are true friends? I don’t want to regret!”
He smiled and looked at Ye Xiao. He looked casual. “Brother, do you agree?”
“Agree! Agree!” Ye Xiao nodded. He only felt awkward. “Agree so much.”
He sighed in the heart and thought, [Eldritch youngsters indeed.]
