279: The purple-robed steward with triangular eyes! Soul search for Yang Yucheng

“Absolutely brilliant! Simply amazing! Excellent! You’re incredibly good!”

Yang Yucheng gave such high praise without reservation, because the other party deserved it!

“Thank you for the Young Master’s compliment! Meow!”

Bai Shengjie stuck out her small, fragrant tongue, her eyes full of innocent charm.

She truly seemed like a mountain sprite, a wild spirit who had just Cultivated from a kitten into a human, completely naive and innocent about everything in this world!

“Very good! We’ll play more when we get home! For now, business is more important!”

Yang Yucheng said with a smile!

Bai Shengjie returned to her original demeanor.

A legendary ice queen, she only seemed to transform freely in front of Yang Yucheng; in front of others, she was always so aloof and unapproachable.

And Yang Yucheng was very pleased to see this posture, finding her even more likable than Li Huanhuan.

This woman truly had too much potential… Leaving the Steward Hall!

Yang Yucheng temporarily departed.

He arrived alone, but left as two.

Inside the Steward Hall, among the Green Robe Stewards, Yang Yucheng’s former friends, Liu Dongqing and the other two, could only obediently remain in the crowd, watching Yang Yucheng leave from there.

Currently, the relationship between Yang Yucheng and the Steward Hall, even if it seemed sweet, was still somewhat unclear in reality, so the three of them truly didn’t have the courage to follow closely.

Only by clarifying the situation could they make the correct choice!

Outside the Steward Hall, Liu Dongqing smacked his lips, feeling that something wasn’t quite right.

“We are all Stewards, but how can the gap between Stewards be so vast?”

Liu Dongqing was utterly perplexed!

Tang Ao was expressionless; he spoke in a deep voice.

“Perhaps the answer is simple.”

Chen Yao and Liu Dongqing looked at him.

Tang Ao continued, “Yang Yucheng, he is stronger than us!”

Such a simple and unadorned answer clearly surprised both Liu Dongqing and Chen Yao, but upon closer thought, it seemed to be exactly the case.

It was truly a bit too disheartening!

Inside the Steward Hall, the main door closed tightly, the Formation reopened, and the Steward Hall returned to its usual solemn and dignified state.

The Green Robe Stewards were once again sent out.

Here.

In the hall where important matters were discussed, the Purple-Robed Stewards were all at the front, while the White-Robed Stewards sat on both sides; they all took their seats again.

The difference was that this time, Yang Yucheng was not present, nor was Jiang Tianran from before.

As the master of the Steward Hall, he should rightfully be here.

But as Yang Yucheng disappeared, returning to the Dragon Lair Treasure Land, he too vanished, a truly peculiar situation.

The atmosphere fell into an eerie silence for a moment.

A long-unheard voice broke the silence with a bang!

“Lord Jiang Tianran truly has good intentions, riding two boats; no matter which boat sinks, he won’t drown!”

A sneer sounded, from another Purple-Robed Steward!

His face was sinister, and his triangular eyes looked truly strange!

Another Purple-Robed Steward spoke again, “Yang Yucheng now has the backing of the Third Elder, so it’s not surprising that Jiang Tianran made such a choice. He cherishes his reputation the most, so how could he do something so risky?”

“Everyone, you should still think carefully about whether or not to deal with Yang Yucheng?”

As this point was raised.

Immediately, the Stewards present once again fell silent.

This was the main reason why most people gathered again after sending Yang Yucheng out!

That’s right.

The concept Yang Yucheng had previously proposed, as well as the business cooperation with the Third Elder and Luo Hongmei, could indeed yield a large profit.

They could also take their share from it.

But if they could get more, why wouldn’t they?

If they could directly sideline Yang Yucheng and let them take his place, with such vast Cultivation resources, they might not be unable to achieve Yang Yucheng’s current special status and position.

If Yang Yucheng could cooperate with the Third Elder and Luo Hongmei, why couldn’t they?

At worst.

They could settle for the next best thing, even taking a step back, they could cooperate with the Second Elder, and if that didn’t work, there was still the Grand Elder, and other existences.

With profit before them, human hearts wavered; no one would stop there!

“Capture Yang Yucheng, search his soul, and I don’t believe we won’t get the method of spiritual thought heaven and earth?”

“Although it’s a bit unsavory, our Sect is inherently a Demonic Path Sect, and our Qingyun Grotto-Heaven itself belongs to the Demonic Path, so doing such a thing is certainly not impossible!”

“Heh heh!”

Someone sneered, “Yang Yucheng, merely a Spirit Emperor Realm cultivator, actually dares to be so arrogant here. If he isn’t taught a good lesson, it’s simply ridiculous!”

“A Spirit Emperor threatening those of us in the Spirit Venerable Realm is truly audacious, not to mention the temptation of spiritual thought heaven and earth. I truly don’t want to give up this opportunity!”

“Then let’s make a move!”

The Purple-Clad Steward with Triangular Eyes spoke sinisterly, “Who is willing to go forth and be the first to taste the crab? If he succeeds in one fell swoop, he will undoubtedly get a good share!”

The Purple-Clad Steward with Triangular Eyes looked at the White-Robed Stewards with a sinister gaze.

Just now.

The White-Robed Stewards were the most boisterous, but now, they all seemed to shrink back, unwilling to be the one to stick their neck out.

“I knew you were useless!”

“Fine, I will personally handle this matter!”

The Purple-Clad Steward with Triangular Eyes spoke again, he waved his sleeve, and his figure disappeared.

Thus, the Steward Hall’s deliberation hall once again fell into an eerie silence.

Immediately after.

Someone else spoke, presenting his idea.

“This truly has the demeanor of the Demonic Path. What if we inform Lord Jiang Tianran of this Purple-Robed Steward’s intention to deal with Yang Yucheng!”

As this idea was proposed.

Almost instantly, people’s hearts wavered again.

If the Purple-Clad Steward with Triangular Eyes could betray Jiang Tianran just now, why couldn’t they betray him?

As long as they could gain profit.

Betrayal!

These two words seemed so incredibly easy, flowing like water, perfectly normal.

For a moment, the vast Alliance of Stewards who were just about to deal with Yang Yucheng seemed to crumble with that single sentence, unable to establish effective trust again!

More people mean greater strength, which is good.

But sometimes.

With too many people, there are entanglements everywhere; a massive Alliance is sometimes not as good as the strength of one person.

One person is a Dragon, ten people are worms!

...In the deepest room of the Steward Hall, the surroundings were not dark and gloomy, deep and terrifying like the Steward Hall’s style, but filled with a faint warm color.

It was hard to imagine that in a place like the Steward Hall, which most Sect Disciples hated.

There would actually be such a warm and harmonious place.

“Greetings, Elder Han!”

And here, a figure appeared.

The strongest person on the surface of the Steward Hall, Jiang Tianran, bowed in salute.
