Ch. 95 - Triple Personality

The carriage slowly drove to the gate of Jiang Mansion and stopped. Ye Anping opened the carriage's curtain and handed the coachman a small bag of spirit stones, then jumped out and turned to help Pei Lianxue get down.

"Wifey, be careful..."

"Yes..." Pei Lianxue nodded slightly. After hesitating briefly, she called softly, "Thank you, hubby."

The two walked up the stone steps to the Jiang Mansion's gate.

In front of the gate, an old man sweeping the floor saw Ye Anping approaching and stared at him with squinting eyes for a long time. When he saw the jade pendant stolen from Jiang Yu hanging at Ye Anping's waist, his expression suddenly became confident.

"Young Master Jiang?!"

Ye Anping froze for a moment, trying to recall the name of the old man, but it didn't come to mind at all. After all, the Dragon Slayer Society was only a marginal cannon fodder force in the Dragon House incident.

In an uncertain voice, he asked, "Uncle Lin?"

"Oh, dear! Young Master Jiang! I haven't seen you for seven or eight years, I didn't expect you to still remember me." The old man came forward and patted Ye Anping's shoulder gently, with a smile on his face. "I remember that when you were a child, I would carry you to buy candied haws on the street. You have grown so tall in the blink of an eye."

I actually got it right... Ye Anping smiled and nodded. "I came back as soon as I received the letter. My father..."

"Master was buried a month ago. I originally wanted to wait for you to come back before burying him. Alas... I'm sorry."

"Well..."

"Oh~ I forgot. Young Master, please wait a moment. All the branch leaders are in the main hall now. I will send someone to ask them to come out to greet you."

The old man leaned the broom against the door, walked in with wobbling steps, and asked a younger servant to go in and announce.

Ye Anping didn't go in directly. He knew the current situation in the Dragon Slayer Society.

After Jiang Tianfeng died, the branch leader Hua Qinyu wanted to "rule from behind the curtain", replacing the original Jiang Yu and taking charge of the Dragon Slayer Society herself.

In the game, Jiang Yu was indeed a mere figurehead as a young master, and in the later Dragon House incident, he, unfortunately, witnessed the BOSS battle between Feng Yu Die and Li Feng, and was hit by a huge boulder that flew away during the fierce battle between the two and crushed into a patty.

If Ye Anping remembered correctly, that woman should be in the early stage of the Foundation Building, and she had several bodyguards, also in the early stage of the Foundation Building by her side.

So, either for the sake of the Dragon Slayer Society or for his own convenience in the future, Hua Qinyu had to be eliminated.

After waiting a little at the door, the servant who had run in to bring the news suddenly ran out. He looked at Ye Anping with an anxious look, cupped his hands, and said, "Master Jiang, Madame Hua  invites you to come in."

"Shouldn't she be the one coming to greet me?"

"Well..."

"It's okay. Wifey, let's go."

Ye Anping shook his head and sighed, then turned around, and after glancing at his sister, he crossed the threshold.

Pei Lianxue nodded, and without saying a word, she took out her spiritual sword from the storage bag and let it dangle in her right hand.

"Hmph!"

When the servant saw this, he was struck with panic but didn't dare to say anything. He quickly caught up with them and led the way.

Jiang Mansion was a large house with three main courtyards and nine small courtyards inside. Ye Anping and Pei Lianxue walked nearly a hundred steps before arriving at the main hall.

Looking at the hall full of people, Ye Anping used his spiritual sense to sweep through them. Just as he remembered, the highest level of cultivation was only in the middle stage of the Foundation Building.

His eyes finally landed on the face of Hua Qinyu, who was sitting on the main seat.

Seeing the sardonic smile on her face, Ye Anping smiled back.

However, when he saw the man in black next to Hua Qinyu, his smile vanished.

?

Wasn't that Brother Liang, his sworn brother?

Why did he meet him here?

What a coincidence.

It seemed it would take a little effort to kill Hua Qinyu later.

Ye Anping hesitated outside the main hall door, then took out his own sword from the storage bag and walked in. At the same time, he raised the jade pendant at his waist to show it to the others.

The branch leaders of the Dragon Slayer Society looked in astonishment at Ye Anping walking in with his sword. Several people quickly scanned him with their spiritual senses and couldn't believe it when they discovered that he was actually in the early stage of the Foundation Building.

As far as they knew, Jiang Yu was sent to Master Yunshi by Jiang Tianfeng for training when he was three years old. When he came back, at eight years old, he was at the fifth or sixth level of Qi Refining. After they hadn't seen him for only seven or eight years, not to mention he had reached the Foundation Building stage, his temperament had also changed completely.

Hua Qinyu looked at the sword in Ye Anping's hand, and feeling a little uncomfortable, she asked, "Master Jiang? What are you..."

"Cleaning house!"

With that, Ye Anping raised the sword and pointed it at Hua Qinyu while he glanced at Liang Zhu standing beside her, carefully observing his reaction.

After all, he was probably the only one present who could pose a threat to him and his sister.

Meanwhile, Liang Zhu felt like he had seen a ghost.

--Seven Slayers Sect shop owner, Jiang Ziya.

--The Young Master of the Hundred Lotus Sect, Ye Anping.

And now, there was another Young Master of the Dragon Slayer Society, Jiang Yu.

Triple personality?

Liang Zhu's eyes lingered on Ye Anping for a split second and then sized up Pei Lianxue, who was following behind.

Back then, that girl, only at a complete Qi Refining cultivation level, easily killed two Foundation Building cultivators, "the Second and the Fifth Brother".

Now that she had built the foundation, if she fought with all her strength, the odds of winning against her were not good.

Moreover, the 'triple personality' next to her had a big shot behind him, and he couldn't afford to offend them.

"..."

Hua Qinyu came back to her senses and asked, "Master Jiang, what do you mean, cleaning house?"

"You know it."

Ye Anping looked at the other confused branch leaders, hesitated, and said, "Since Father passed away, you've incorporated all the money-making jobs within the association under your Seven Fragrances branch and gained your autonomy. What do the other branch leaders say?"

He looked at the one with the scarred face and said, "Master Chen, you were originally in charge of the cloth mill business in Duchun City, but what about now?"

Then, he looked at a scholar-looking man on the other side. "Master Xu, there were originally three boats on your riverside, all staffed with the men you brought yourself. What about now?"

...

Ye Anping mentioned each person, and finally looked back at Hua Qinyu and said, "Father really made a mistake and actually handed over the livelihood of the Dragon Slayer Society to a greedy person like you! You have completely forgotten all about my father's kindness to you."

Hearing these words, Hua Qinyu paled. Only then did she finally realize that "Jiang Yu" was not a joke.

Well, now that it has come to this...

She gritted her teeth and was about to speak when she heard "Jiang Yu" call softly. "Wifey, do it."

The black-haired girl behind him instantly flashed in front of her, her speed even comparable to the evasion technique of a Core Formation stage cultivator.

Hua Qinyu's eyes widened. "What?"

Ding--

The sound of iron striking rang out and sparks burst out an inch in front of her neck.

Liang Zhu had drawn a short sword and blocked the attack for her.

"..."

Hua Qinyu was stupefied, then widened her eyes and raised her voice to scold her. "You brat! This senior is in the late stage of Foundation Building here. How dare you, only in the early stage of Foundation Building, to..."

Before she could finish her words, Pei Lianxue immediately reversed her sword direction and swung it toward Liang Zhu's neck.

In a white light, six shadow swords suddenly appeared in mid-air.

Pei Lianxue was taken aback.

Clearly, her sword hadn't even touched Liang Zhu yet, but, as if he had been sent flying by something, he flew toward the wall to the side and smashed into it.

"Eh?"

Boom-

Liang Zhu directly smashed through the wall and flew out.

Seeing the late-stage Foundation Building cultivator being sent flying out with a single sword strike by this little girl, Hua Qinyu's originally furious eyes were now showing a hint of panic.

"What?!"

Hearing her voice, Pei Lianxue came back to her senses, looked at her with indifferent eyes, and raised the sword again.

Swish---

Blood spattered seven feet, staining a calligraphy hanging on the wall of the main hall with a thick red mark.
