Chapter 6: Chapter 6: 1st mission completed???(part 2)
Xinyi took a deep breath and spoke, "Today I came to talk about our marriage."
"What!" Everyone was speechless.
Li Ye spoke, "Xinyi-"
"Brother Ye, I fell in love with you when you first saved me from a beast tide and have been thinking about you all the time. So I hope brother Ye would consider it," Xinyi spoke.
"What! The eldest miss of the Feng clan is asking for Li Ye's hand in marriage."
Both Tang Gao and Tang Fan were shocked.
Song Dai and Weiwei couldn't believe what they were hearing.
"Does uncle and aunt know about this?" Ye asked.
"Yes," Xinyi replied.
"Did they agree?" Li Ye asked Xinyi.
"I did tell them I was coming here," Xinyi said.
Ye sighed, "I will go to the Feng clan to talk to uncle and aunt about this."
"So you will marry me!" Xinyi spoke with excitement.
"If both you and your parents are fine with it," Li Ye said while smiling.
"You are the best brother Ye. My mom and dad will agree if it's you," Xinyi smiled.
"Then wear this." Xinyi made Li Ye wear a ring on his finger.
"What's this ring for?" Li Ye asked.
"That's our engagement ring. There are also some pills and martial arts techniques in the ring," Xinyi said.
"I don't need this."
"Think of this as a meeting gift, Brother Ye."
"Well, now I need to return to the Feng clan."
"Why don't you stay here for a couple of days?"
"I also want to spend some time with Brother Ye, but if I don't return to the Feng clan, the old geezers will nag me about the sect competition," Xinyi spoke with annoyance.
"Don't worry, I will visit the Feng clan before the sect competition."
"You are the best, Brother Ye. I will be going then."
"Xinyi, wait."
"Brother Ye, do you need something?"
"I need that guard" Li Ye spoke while looking at the king stage guard.
"Do you need him to be your bodyguard, Brother Ye?"
"No, he wanted to cripple me, So I want him crippled and throw him in the mines of the Li clan to work until he dies."
Everyone felt a chill down their spine hearing Li Ye's words. Even the guards were shocked to hear his words.
"What are you saying?" Aria asked.
The king stage guard felt absolute fear hearing those words.
"Don't worry, brother Ye, I will do as you say,"
"Miss, I am sorry, please-" The guard's plea was interrupted by Xinyi's chilling demand.
"Cripple your cultivation and work in the mines, or I will kill your whole family," Xinyi spoke with cold determination.
The guard, fearing for his family's safety, swiftly destroyed his cultivation and kneeled before Li Ye.
"Young master, I hope you can forgive me," he pleaded, his head bowed in submission.
"From now on, you will work in mines until you die. Do you understand?" Li Ye's voice was stern, yet remorseful.
"Yes, young master," the guard replied, his tone resigned.
The scene shocked everyone, including Song Dai and Tang Gao, whose faces turned pale at the severity of Li Ye's judgment.
"Then I hope brother Ye will keep his word and visit me soon," Xinyi said before stepping into the carriage and departing from the Li Manor.
"Someone, take him to the mines," Li Ye commanded, his voice heavy with the weight of his decision.
"Ye, wait," Song Dai called out, his voice tinged with urgency.
"Uncle, don't worry. I will send the official letter regarding the marriage agreement," Li Ye assured, just as he was about to enter the Li Manor, Weiwei intercepted him.
"Brother Ye, I've reconsidered our marriage. Perhaps we shouldn't rush to break the agreement our grandfather made. I could be your second wife," Weiwei proposed.
Song Dai echoed her sentiment, "Weiwei is right. We ought to contemplate this decision further."
Witnessing the shamelessness of the Song clan, Li Zhong was left speechless.
"Oh, and by the way, the Pearl Pavilion will cease cooperation with both the Song and Tang clans," Li Ye declared definitively.
"The Pearl Pavilion is the largest trading pavilion in the entire kingdom. Do you think you're some big shot just because you have some backing? Both the Song and Tang clans sacrificed a lot to work with them," Tang Fan mocked.
"Li Ye, do you believe you're entitled to anything just because you're acquainted with the eldest miss of the Feng clan?" Tang Fan scoffed.
"It seems the Li clan grows more audacious by the day," Tang Gao added with disdain.
"Hah, the trash can only speak trash," Aria remarked with contempt.
Li Ye took out a communication jade and said something.
After some time, both Song Dai and Tang Gao received a message about the Pearl Pavilion wanting to end the cooperation.
They turned paler than ghosts.
Fan asked, "Grandpa, what happened?"
Tang Gao shouted, "Go and ask Young Master Ye for forgiveness, or I will banish you from the Tang clan!"
Tang Fan couldn't understand his grandfather's words before he was kicked and landed in front of Li Ye.
Song Dai came in front of Li Ye.
"Little Ye, I hope you can forgive your uncle. You can have Weiwei as your concubine, or she can be your slave, but please talk to the Pearl Pavilion to cooperate with us again," Song Dai spoke with respect.
"Dad! I was thinking of becoming this trash's wife to get some benefits from the Feng clan for the clan, but you want me to be his slave!" Weiwei shouted.
Song Dai slapped Weiwei, and she fell to the ground. "The Pearl Pavilion sent a message saying they will stop cooperating with us. This all happened because you didn't want to marry him."
Weiwei touched her face where she got slapped and looked at Li Ye with disbelief.
"Why did the Pearl Pavilion stop our cooperation because of you?" Tang Fan asked, surprised.
"I am the boss so I can do anything I want," Li Ye replied.
"How can you be the boss of the largest pavilion in the whole kingdom?" Tang Fan asked.
"I founded the Pearl Pavilion so I could earn some money and be as lazy as I want and spend the rest of my life without any worry. But before I knew it, it became one of the largest pavilions in the kingdom. I only wanted to work with the Song clan, but after I found out that both the Song and Tang sacrificed a lot, I cooperated with both Song and Tang clans," Li Ye said.
Everyone was shocked to hear that the boss of the biggest pavilion in the kingdom was Li Ye; even his grandpa was shocked.
"Someone see off our guests," Li Ye spoke.
"Ye, please don't do this," Song Dai begged.
Tang Gao fell to his knees.
The servant guided them out of the Li Manor.
