I Just Won't Play by the Book - Chapter 187
Chapter 187 Annulment Was Worth It
“Please come in quickly.” Ye Lingtian waved at Wu Qingce.
Stepping into the hall, Wu Qingce observed the people on both sides and found that there were some with friendly expressions and some with disdainful expressions.
“It’s just as Brother Jiang said. Then it’s easy to handle.”
When Wu Qingce stood in the middle of the hall, Ye Lingtian nodded and said, “Qingce is indeed a good-looking person. Brother Lu is still so good at picking disciples.”
“Thank you for your praise, Master Ye.” After Wu Qingce said that, he cupped his hands towards Ye Lingtian and said, “Recently, Fengzhou has been in turmoil. My master is really unable to get away, so he could only order me to come and apologize to you. I hope that Old Master Ye can understand.”
After hearing that, Ye Lingtian revealed a slightly satisfied expression. No matter what, this disciple was still very polite. He had originally thought that if Sect Master Lu sent an arrogant and domineering disciple over, he might not be able to endure his anger anymore.
But now that he did not have to take the risk to shed all pretense of cordiality, his mood was naturally much better.
Thus, Ye Lingtian revealed a nervous expression and said, “I have heard that the Fengzhou has been rather unstable recently. Is your master alright?” “Please rest assured, Old Master Ye. My master is fine.”
Without waiting for Ye Lingtian to speak, Ye Chuan who was at the side spoke first, “Since Sect Master Lu is fine, then it means that the Fengzhou is not in a big trouble at all.”
After Ye Lingtian heard this, he immediately slammed the table and shouted, “B*stard! Who told you to speak!”
Under such circumstances, Wu Qingce could not help but shout in his heart.
“Brother Jiang, are you a fortune teller?”
Turning to look at Ye Chuan, Wu Qingce cupped his hands and said, “Mister, please let me explain. My Master is guarding the sect to prevent the demonic cult from attacking. It is precisely because my master is doing well that he was able to intimidate those little rascals.”
Ye Chuan did not know how to respond, so he could only nod and say, “Then, it has been hard on Sect Master Lu.”
Jiang Beiran had guessed that there would definitely be a thorn in the Ye family, so he had told Wu Qingce to try not to have any conflicts unless the other party refused to listen.
Now that Ye Chuan did not continue to make things difficult for him, Wu Qingce took out an envelope from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Lingtian. “This is the letter my master entrusted me to bring to you. Please take a look at it, Old Master Ye.”
Ye Lingtian looked at it and smiled. “This letter can be sent by any messenger. He even asked you to come personally. Qingce, thank you for your work.”
“It’s not hard at all. It’s my job.” Wu Qingce handed the envelope to Ye Lingtian after he finished speaking.
After opening the envelope, Ye Lingtian took out the letter and shook it before reading it carefully.
Very soon, Ye Lingtian’s expression became more and more relaxed. It was obvious that the contents of the letter made him very happy.
After a long while, Ye Lingtian put down the letter. Before he could speak, Wu Qingce took out a yellow dragon wooden box from his storage ring and opened it. The few people present were all masters of discerning goods. Their eyes lit up as soon as they smelled the fragrance coming from the box.
“This tier 7 Five Dragon Pill is a gift from my master, Old Master Ye. Not only can this Five Dragon Pill cure a hundred poisons, but it is also sufficient to increase the cultivation of cultivators below the level of a mystic spirit by two levels. Please accept it, Old Master Ye.”
Although a tier 7 spirit medicine was far inferior to a tier 8 spirit pill, it was still a treasure that was hard to find in the world. To put it bluntly, if a smaller aristocratic family could get a tier 7 spirit medicine after breaking off the engagement, they would probably kneel down and beg you to break off the engagement faster.

“This… Brother Lu is really spending too much. There’s no need to.”
Wu Qingce quickly cupped his hands and said, “Old Master Ye, please accept it. Before we set off, my master repeatedly told me to give the gift to you. Otherwise, I can’t go back.”
“Hahaha, this is like what Brother Lu said. Since that’s the case, I’ll accept it.” He took the yellow dragon wooden box that Wu Qingce handed over, He Lingtian patted Wu Qingce’s shoulder and said, “Qingce, it’s been hard on you this time. How about this, I’ll be the host. You can rest here for a few days so that I can do my duty as a host.”
“Thank you for your kindness. Sorry to disturb you.”
“You’re not disturbing me. We’re all family!”
“Thank you, Old Master Ye.” After Wu Qingce said that, he looked around and asked, “I wonder… where is that Ye Fan now?”
“Oh, Ye Fan. I’ll talk to that child properly, so I won’t trouble you.”
“I have something to talk to him about on this trip. Please let me see him, Old Master Ye.”
“If that’s the case.” Ye Lingtian raised his head and looked to his right. “Third Brother, where is Ye Fan now?”
Ye Huaqing stood up and said, “Fan’er… he should be cultivating in the back mountain right now.”
“That’s just right.” Ye Lingtian nodded. “Qingce, you are Brother Lu’s disciple and must have a deep understanding of mystic energy. You can give pointers to our disciples.”
“I’m not qualified to give pointers. I only have a shallow understanding on mystic energy.”
“Haha, don’t be modest. Come, I’ll bring you to the back mountain to find that child.”
From the moment they saw the tier 7 Five Dragon Pill, the smiles on the faces of the core members of the Ye family became much more sincere. Even Ye Chuan’s disdainful expression also disappeared.
After all, most of them were superior mystic practitioner. Some of them were even just a step away from leveling up. Now, this Five Dragon Pill might be able to help them break through to the mystic spirit realm easily. That would be the first step towards becoming a true powerhouse.
The group of people arrived at the back of the mountain. At this moment, a few disciples of the Ye family were having their free time. When they saw that the family head had arrived, they hurriedly lined up and saluted, shouting, “Greetings, family head!”
Nodding his head, Ye Lingtian glanced at the disciples and asked, “Where is Ye Fan?”
“Uh…” The disciples looked at each other. The last tall boy pointed to the west and said, “Ye Fan should be cultivating in the depths of the forest. He has been going there at this time for the past few days.”
“Okay, then you guys continue practicing.” After Ye Lingtian spoke, he led Wu Qingce to the depths of the forest.
When Ye Lingtian and the others were a little further away, a fat disciple said, “Let’s go and take a look?”
“Let’s go. Hope that’s a good show.”
“Why do you guys think the family head suddenly came to look for that useless Ye Fan…”
“Shh… I see the family head’s face is full of smiles. He should be looking for Ye Fan for something good. So, watch your mouth.”
“Hey, why are you guys talking so much nonsense? Hurry up and follow them.”
“Bang! Bang! I didn’t expect that you’re quite tough. Are you going to say it or not?! Bang! Are you going to say it or not?!”
Just as Ye Lingtian and Wu Qingce entered the depths of the forest, they heard a series of blows and roars.
Realizing that something was wrong, the few of them immediately quickened their pace and arrived at the place where the sounds came from.
Not far away, Ye Fan was grabbed by the arms of two disciples and was being beaten up by Ye Yong like a sandbag.
“Stop!”
At this moment, Ye Lingtian shouted loudly.
Ye Yong was having a great time hitting Ye Fan when he suddenly heard such a loud shout. He was so shocked that he quickly turned around and realized that the family head was here!
“Greetings!” Ye Yong hurriedly bowed.
The other two Ye family disciples immediately let go of Ye Fan and bow to family head
Ye Huaming saw this and quickly ran to Ye Fan’s side to help him up. “Fan’er, Fan’er, how are you?”
“Cough… Cough!” Ye Fan coughed out two mouthfuls of blood and replied with a smile, “I’m fine. Don’t worry, Father.”
Without waiting for Ye Huaqing to make things difficult for him, Ye Lingtian first shouted at Ye Yong and the other two with a cold face, “What are you guys doing!”
“We… We are sparring.” Ye Yong answered with a panicked look in his eyes.
“Three against one, is that called sparring?”
At this time, Ye Chuan walked up to Ye Yong and protected him, “Father, It’s just a fight between children. It’s very normal.”
Hearing Ye Chuan’s words, Ye Huaqing looked at his wounded son in his arms. He then stood up angrily and said, “You call this a fight between children? Fine, I’ll find two disciples to hold your son’s hands, and then Fan’er will fight with your son again!”
“How dare you!” Ye Chuan glared at Ye Huaqing and roared.
“Why wouldn’t I dare!”

Seeing that the two of them were about to start a fight, Ye Lingtian roared, “Enough! Isn’t it embarrassing enough?! All of you, follow me out!”
“Yes…” Everyone replied at the same time.
