《Myth Beyond Heaven 》Chapter 93: The Useful Young Master Ye
Advertisement
Ye Xiaolong didn't think about it further as he understood everyone had their own secret. He accepted the task readily. "No problem. Brother Ye can leave this matter to me."
Yun Lintian nodded. "You can ask the price first and come to get money from me."
Ye Xiaolong wanted to show his sincerity, but he forgot he couldn't afford the price of Snow Wind Silk beddings. He swallowed his words back and said, "Do you have a place to stay, Brother Ye?" Seeing Yun Lintian shook his head, Ye Xiaolong said further, "Then, why don't you come to my place? I have a manor here. It's absolutely private and convenient than staying in the inn."
Yun Lintian thought for a moment and answered, "Then I'll have to trouble Brother Ye."
Ye Xiaolong was elated. Since Yun Lintian accepted his goodwills, that meant he had already forgiven him.
After all of them finished the meal, Ye Xiaolong led Yun Lintian's group to his private manor on the west side of the town. This manor was big enough to contain a hundred people with no problem.
"Brother Ye, you and sisters can rest here first. I'll send someone to ask about the bedding in a while." Ye Xiaolong said after settling Yun Lintian's group in one of the secluded courtyards.
"Thank you." Yun Lintian said and looked around the courtyard in satisfaction.
"Then I'll leave first. If you want anything, you can tell the servant directly." Ye Xiaolong said a few words and left the courtyard.
Yun Huanxin carefully checked the surrounding before she set up an isolation barrier around the courtyard.
"Why did you spare him?" Yun Qianxue sat on a chair in the middle of the room and asked.
Yun Lintian took a kettle out and started brewing tea before he answered, "He's still useful. We can observe him first."

Yun Qianxue went silent while Yun Huanxin was busy with her pastry.

In another courtyard, Ye Xiaolong sat behind a long table and kept drinking fine wine to get rid of the taste of blood in his mouth.
"Young Master, are we going to let them go like this?" One of the two bodyguards said. He felt this wasn't Ye Xiaolong's style to let this matter rest.
Ye Xiaolong glared at him and said, "Can you kill them?"
The two bodyguards glanced at each other and shook their heads. What a joke! They didn't even know their hands were severed a while ago. How could they have the ability to kill them?
Ye Xiaolong threw the wine cup at them angrily, "Then asking me this question for what!?"
The two bodyguards were embarrassed and lowered their heads, did not dare to say anything further.
Ye Xiaolong panted angrily for a while before he calmed down and said, "Don't you see his medical profound art earlier?"
The two bodyguards nodded. They had somewhat admired Yun Lintian and felt gratitude for helping them reconnected their hands. Otherwise, they would become a cripple for the rest of their life.
"You've lived for many years. Have you ever seen a mere seventeen-year-old boy possess such superb medical skills?" Ye Xiaolong asked.
The two bodyguards shook their heads. This was the first time they saw someone who possessed such a high-level medical skill at a young age.
"And he even has at least the Sky Profound Realm's expert with him. Do you think he's an ordinary person?" Ye Xiaolong asked again. Seeing the two bodyguards shook their heads once again, Ye Xiaolong continued, "That's right. He is not simple as he appears to be. There should be a terrifying force behind him. This time I've kicked an iron plate for real."

Recalling the moment Yun Huanxin severed his bodyguards' arms, a trace of fear appeared in Ye Xiaolong's heart again. He felt he was lucky enough to keep his life until now. How could he dare to retaliate against Yun Lintian after this?
Although Ye Xiaolong was arrogant, he still knew when to stretch and when to bend. No matter what, from now on, he won't dare to offend Yun Lintian again.
Ye Xiaolong waved his hand. "Go ask Master Kong for the bedding and Snow Wind Silkworm for me. I want to rest for a while."
The two bodyguards accepted the task and went out of the courtyard, leaving Ye Xiaolong behind alone.
Ye Xiaolong stared blankly for a moment before he took a transmission jade out, appearing hesitant. After carefully considering, he shook his head and put the transmission jade away.
***
Yun Lintian stayed in the Ye Xiaolong's manor for two days before the two thousand beddings, and Ten Snow Wind Silkworms had finally arrived.
He looked at the thousands of luxury beddings in front of him and nodded in satisfaction. He was satisfied with the quality of these beddings. Not only would it help relieve the user's fatigue by just lying on it, but it also had the ability to calm the user's mind. Naturally, it wasn't as effective as the Serene Bamboo or Heavenly Sandalwood, but it was considered one of the best products that people could find in the Azure World.
Yun Lintian turned to Ye Xiaolong and asked, "I wonder how did Brother Ye manage to get all of them?"
At first, Yun Lintian thought he would have to wait for at least one month before these items arrived, but Ye Xiaolong surprised him by getting all of them in two days.
Ye Xiaolong smiled proudly, "I've been in contact with Master Kong, who is the person in charge of Snow Wind Trading Firm since I was young. So asking him for this is not a big deal."
Yun Lintian nodded his head. It was as he expected — Ye Xiaolong was indeed useful. He didn't think this Master Kong would sell all of these beddings to him if it was him. Not to mention the Snow Wind Silkworm was extremely rare. Even some powerful clans could not get a hand on it, but Ye Xiaolong could get ten.
"Very well. How much?" Yun Lintian asked.
Ye Xiaolong hesitated slightly before he raised two fingers, "It's two hundred million gold coins." After finishing his sentence, Ye Xiaolong observed Yun Lintian's expression nervously for fearing Yun Lintian think he tried to scam him.
