In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
Now, Ye Kai was almost a household name in Fuzhou.
Not only was his own demeanor striking, but the Five Girls by his side were stunningly beautiful, as if celestial maidens had descended to earth.
Of course, many people were already so envious that they were nearly driven mad.
It was one thing for him to hide in an inn and flirt with the maids, but this guy had the audacity to frequently bring along the Five maids and two burly Martial Servants, strutting around flamboyantly.
Not only did he have everything handed to him on a silver platter, but he also embodied the "money is no object" attitude to the fullest.
However, if it were only that, he would have long been reduced to nothing but scraps by those who were secretly watching him.
This was because after several waves of attacks in the dead of night, there had been no further incidents, as if he had vanished into thin air. It made people start to wonder if he was just pretending to be weak while hiding his true strength.
Thus, even if they were eager to take action against him, no one dared to make a move easily.
In Fuzhou City, aside from other matters, Ye Kai truly thrived in bustling places. He frequented venues where all walks of life gathered but found that very few dared to step forward and confront him.
This left him feeling quite displeased for several minutes. Was it really because he was too flamboyant that everyone else was intimidated?
Ye Kai thought to himself with disappointment.
What a pity!
However, today, sitting in his usual spot on the second floor of Yue Lai Inn, he overheard some recent 'big events' happening in the martial world.
This 'sensational' incident involved Linghu Chong, the top disciple of the Huashan Sect, who had kicked two members of the Qingcheng Sect's Four Heroes off a building, executing a move that could only be described as 'butt-first, gracefully descending like a wild goose.'
Surprisingly, this incident had occurred a month ago, and hearing about it made him genuinely feel the pain.
It seemed that a harmonious martial world wasn't necessarily a good thing!
These people were nothing but boastful chatter; even Ye Kai was starting to feel annoyed.
During this time, his second task was to have Ye Er sneak into the Lin Family Old Residence in Sunshine Alley at night and retrieve the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual!
Indeed, this Evil-Repelling Sword Manual might just be the easiest secret manual to obtain in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer Dimension. For Ye Kai, it was certainly easier than anything else left to acquire, with only the stone-carved martial arts from Sorrow Cliff's Wuyue Sword Sect and Sun Moon Holy Cult remaining.
As he felt soft hands massaging his shoulders and legs, he was about to head out for a stroll when he suddenly spotted five or six fine steeds bursting out of the Fortune Guard Escort Agency's entrance.
"Well, well, isn't that Lin?"
Ye Kai's eyes sparkled with amusement; this was getting interesting. A good show was finally about to unfold—this was not like watching a TV drama but rather the most authentic version of a Real Person show!
He absolutely couldn't miss it!
"Hey there, Brother Ye! Are you interested in joining us for a hunt outside the city?!" Lin Pingzhi's sharp eyes immediately spotted the Young Master, who looked thoroughly pleased and relaxed.
"Hey!"
Ye Kai raised an eyebrow, his eyes darting around before he spoke, "Alright, it's not often that I get to hunt myself. Come on, Ye Yi and Ye Er, hurry up and prepare the horses for me. Ladies, let's go hunting!"
Originally, he had planned to hide in the shadows and just observe, but he didn't expect Lin Pingzhi to call him out.
As for Lin Pingzhi, his nature wasn't bad at all. Unlike most 'rich second generation' types, he had a certain pride but was also kind-hearted.
Moreover, with Ye Kai surrounded by beautiful maidens like Five, Lin Pingzhi had even approached him for a chat before. They could be considered friends.
When everyone laid eyes on the luxurious carriage, although they still felt envy and jealousy, they knew better than to act rashly without understanding Ye Kai's true background. No one dared to make a move openly or secretly.
"Brother Ye, your carriage is so beautiful!" Lin Pingzhi exclaimed, his handsome face revealing unmasked envy.
"Is this really what looks good?" Ye Kai replied with a look that suggested disbelief. "If it weren't for my desire to keep a low profile, I wouldn't even ride in such a flashy carriage. It's simply embarrassing!"
Lin Pingzhi could only smile wryly.
Even knowing that this Young Master was arrogant and flamboyant, hearing those words still made him uneasy.
He was the young head of the Fortune Guard Escort Agency—definitely a high-class and handsome figure—but even so, he couldn't afford the jewels adorning the carriage door.
As for other escort heads, they simply didn't catch Ye Kai's eye; he ignored them completely and boarded the carriage with the help of several delicate maidens.
At that moment, Lin Pingzhi was riding high on success; even his Ferghana Horse seemed more spirited than usual. The rhythmic sound of hooves echoed like delightful music, stirring excitement in his heart as he rode along with a smile.
This time, while out of the city for hunting, not only did they catch a deer, but they also obtained a fist-sized glass Buddha bead, within which sat a vividly lifelike golden Buddha in a meditative pose.
Upon seeing it, he was struck with awe, and even the other bodyguards' eyes sparkled with excitement.
Before long, the group arrived at an inn. Zheng Biao Head's eyes lit up at the sight of the sign that read "Wine," and he turned to Lin Pingzhi and Ye Kai, saying, "Young Master, how about we have a drink? Fresh venison, rabbit meat, wild chicken, and wild duck would make for great dishes to accompany our drinks."
Lin Pingzhi was in high spirits and immediately turned around. "Hahaha, I didn't expect there to be an inn here. Brother Ye, what do you think about resting here for a bit?"
"Sounds good!"
Ye Kai had no objections; after all, this was the place where this handsome young man would change his life forever. He smiled and added, "By the way, I have some thirty-year-old Peach Blossom Wine here that would be perfect for a celebration!"
Seeing Lin Pingzhi agree and hearing about the thirty-year-old Peach Blossom Wine, Zheng Biao Head and the others were overjoyed. They dismounted and led the way into the inn while calling out, "Old Cai! Old Cai! Why aren't you out here to take care of the young master’s horse?"
At that moment, as they entered the establishment, they noticed that there were no other customers inside, which instantly relaxed their bodies.
An old man came out to greet them; unfortunately, it wasn't Old Cai. Ye Kai's eyes gleamed with amusement as he recognized that this old man was definitely Laudeno sent by the Huashan Sect. Alongside him was Yue Ling Shan disguised as an ugly woman.
Laudeno then began to explain his arrival before apologizing, "Are you gentlemen here for some drinks? Please come in quickly. Wan'er! Wan'er! Hurry up and stoke the fire; be quick about it!"
Hearing the old man's nonsense made Ye Kai glance at him with a strange expression. He then turned to Yue Ling Shan with a gentle smile and said, "Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, Chrysanthemum, take this old man with you. Otherwise, if our White Dragon gets temperamental and hurts him, it won't be good."
His warm smile and graceful demeanor made Yue Ling Shan's heart skip a beat. She quickly lowered her head and responded with a crisp voice before heading straight to the kitchen.
However, as they exited the inn, she exchanged glances with Old Man Sa who was tying up the horses. Both shared a look of confusion—who exactly was this young master?
Why did I come with Lin Pingzhi?
And that strange look in his eyes, could it be that he discovered something?
Both of them couldn't help but think this way. In just a short moment, he had already unabashedly revealed his gaze several times.
This inevitably raised doubts in their hearts. If it were just once, it would be fine, but several times... Moreover, the Green-Clad Maiden was definitely not a beauty; she was quite unattractive.
So why was he staring at her face with such a smile?
Could it be that he had discovered the mission assigned by their sect?
However, regarding the sudden arrival of Young Master Ye, they had no other choice but to brace themselves and hold on, lest they reveal any unrelated flaws.
After some contemplation, Laudeno, disguised as Old Man Sa, began to cook, while the Green-Clad Maiden carried a wooden tray with a green porcelain wine jug and cups to serve wine to the group.
"Wan'er!"
After taking the green porcelain cup and filling it with Peach Blossom Wine, Ye Kai smiled and asked, "How's business lately? You two, old and young, running a shop in such a hot place must be quite tough!"
"…"
Yue Ling Shan was momentarily stunned by his words. A hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes, but she quickly suppressed it, not daring to look at Ye Kai's smile. After stammering for a while, she finally said, "It's... it's going okay!"
"Hey, is that so?"
Ye Kai noticed the surprised expressions on Lin Pingzhi and the others but chose not to explain. Instead, he raised his glass slightly and said, "Everyone, let's have a toast!" After downing a drink, he smiled again and added, "Another guest is arriving. Wan'er, aren't you going to greet them?"
"Hmm?"
This left everyone puzzled, and just as they were about to ask, Yue Ling Shan suddenly heard the sound of hooves outside, indicating that someone had arrived.
At that moment, Zheng Biao's gaze sharpened, and he felt a jolt of shock within him.
He truly hadn't expected that this Young Master, who had an extraordinary background and was so generous, would possess such terrifying strength.
He could tell that the sound of hooves was still quite far away, yet this person had already heard it?!
Before long, the sound of hooves grew louder, and everyone realized that this Young Master Ye was indeed a master in his own right, and one whose abilities surpassed those of the rest.
The two horses galloped swiftly, seemingly in a hurry for some reason, and within seconds they had reined in at the entrance.
"There’s a tavern here; let’s go have a couple of bowls."
A clear Sichuan accent came through. Ye Kai noticed that it sounded somewhat different from the Sichuan dialect he had heard in the real world, but he could still grasp the general meaning.
Moreover, with the divine presence acting as a translator, there was simply no pressure at all!
As the two dismounted in front of the tavern and entered, their attire was striking: Azure Robes with bare feet and only a pair of hemp shoes on. They had white cloth wrapped around their heads, resembling the descriptions of characters from Qingcheng Sect in the original work.
"What a pity! What a pity! Such a shame for your figure!" One of them laughed heartily as soon as they walked in, pointing at Yue Ling Shan's disguised appearance.
He let out a sigh of regret, which not only failed to evoke sympathy from the other person but instead prompted an even more boisterous laugh. "Brother Yu, this girl has a figure worth admiring, but that face of hers—it's like stepping on a nail in mud, turning over a pomegranate skin. What a rough-looking face!"
"Haha!"
Suddenly, the man referred to as Brother Yu caught sight of Alice and the four girls—Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, and Chrysanthemum—standing beside Ye Kai. His eyes widened in surprise, and he nearly drooled at the sight.
At that moment, feeling the malicious gaze directed at him, Lin Pingzhi slammed his right hand down on the table and shouted angrily, "What are you two fools doing here in our Fuzhou residence causing trouble?"
The young man with the surname Yu suddenly snapped back to reality and with a gloomy smile said, "Jia Er, they're cursing us! Guess who this rabbit is cursing?"
The mention of "rabbit" instantly charged the atmosphere with tension. Lin Pingzhi, who resembled his mother with his striking looks—red lips and white teeth—was usually quite popular among young ladies. However, there were words he absolutely despised.
And now, these two dared to say such things right in front of him.
Furious, Lin Pingzhi grabbed a tin kettle from the table and hurled it at them. Ye Kai watched with delight; he had been looking for a good opportunity to stir things up!
