C738 A Storm Was Brewing
Because he knew that the current Shimu City was full of undercurrents. Before one wave of trouble was settled, another wave of trouble arose. Whether it was the Heaven Desolating Island or the Returning Sea Manor, neither of them would give up on the Seven Saints Divine Scripture so easily. Moreover, the Tao family who had won the bid for the Seven Saints Divine Scripture wouldn't hand over the Seven Saints Divine Scripture so easily. There were also those small powers that were eyeing the Seven Saints Divine Scripture covetously. Although they were weak, but like a pair of green eyes, they were staring at him.
As the saying goes, when a fierce tiger was facing a pack of fierce wolves, it would have to pay a painful price to protect its prey. Currently, the Tao family was like a fierce tiger, and the other small powers were like a pack of wolves.
However, there were still a few other fierce tigers staring at this place. That was why Meng Hao said that a big show was about to take place. It wouldn't be so easy for Tao Buren to safely bring the Seven Saint Nerves back to his family.
"Young master, the patriarch has already sent Devil Hawk and Gui Lan to come here at full speed. We will study how to send the Seven Saint Nerves back to our family safely when they arrive," an elder standing behind Tao Bu Ren said respectfully.
When Tao Bu Ren heard that his father had sent the Devil Eagle and Gui Feng, he revealed a relaxed smile on his face. He gently smiled and said, "With the help of the two of them, I am indeed much more at ease. Let's return to the resting place first.
After that, Tao Bu Ren and the two elders left the Golden Lake Chamber of Commerce's auction. However, as soon as they left, there were people secretly following behind them. Tao Buren didn't pay much attention to them.
After returning to his residence, Tao Bu Ren didn't show his face. At this moment, he was waiting for the arrival of Devil Hawk and Gui Feng.
There were two experts from the Tao family. They were Devil Hawk and Gui Feng. They were the capable generals of the Tao family, and they had obtained many great achievements.
Furthermore, these two generals of the Tao Family were both at the Seventh Transformation Life and Death Realm. This kind of strength was enough to show their status and status. Moreover, they were both people who had walked out of the life and death situation, and they possessed rich combat experience.
"Young master, where are we going now?" Zi Feng asked in a soft voice. The others also looked at Meng Hao. Obviously, they were all listening to Meng Hao.
Meng Hao smiled and said, "First, find a quiet place nearby, then secretly keep an eye on Tao Buren. However, let's not attack first. Let's watch the show. If we can fish in troubled waters, that would be good."
Therefore, Meng Hao led the group out of the auction. However, as soon as they left, they ran into the host of the auction, Ye Shan. When she saw Meng Hao, she smiled and walked over.
She smiled and said, "I'm sure this is the famous Profound Emperor Prince Meng. I've heard a lot about you, young lady. Now that I see you, you really do have an impressive appearance, and you look quite handsome."
"You're too polite, Miss Ye. I still have some matters to attend to. Meng Hao waved his hand and said with a smile, "I'll pay Miss Ye a visit when I have time in the future. Farewell. Meng Hao didn't want to have too much contact with a girl who was playing with many men in the palm of his hand. It was better to leave as soon as possible.
However, he had underestimated Ye Shan's solidarity. As soon as Meng Hao finished speaking, he heard Ye Shan smile and say, "Young Master Meng, don't be in a hurry to leave. I know a teahouse's tea is very delicious. I want to invite Young Master Meng to have some tea. I wonder if Young Master Meng can give me some face."
Meng Hao suddenly felt a headache coming on. Bi Xuan's little hand gently pinched Meng Hao's waist. She giggled into Meng Hao's ear and whispered, "It seems you're quite charming, husband. Even the famous Eldest Young Lady of the Ye Clan would like to invite you to have some tea."
"Uh, Xuan, you can't blame me for this," said Meng Hao, a helpless expression on his face. Ye Shan was the eldest daughter of the Ye Clan, and at the same time, the Ye Clan was very famous in the Shimu City. If he could avoid provoking her, then he wouldn't.
It's not that I don't appreciate your kindness," said Meng Hao, somewhat regretfully. "It's just that I really have something to do today. How about I personally treat you to tea when I have time in the future? What do you think?
A regretful smile appeared on Ye Shan's face. Smiling, she said, "It's nothing. Since Young Master Meng has something to do, then I can't disturb you. Then we have agreed that you will treat me to tea in the future. I will remember this matter."
Seeing that he had finally settled Ye Shan, Meng Hao couldn't help but sigh in relief. Smiling, he said, "Don't worry. I, Meng Hao, will definitely do what I say. If that's the case, then I'll take my leave."
He clasped hands and bowed to Ye Shan, then walked outside. Bi Xuan and the others followed closely behind. Soon, everyone disappeared from Ye Shan's line of sight.
"Young miss, it seems you think quite highly of him," said a steward behind Ye Shan, smiling. There were very few people in the entire Shimu City or even the Profound Ice Sea Region that could catch Ye Shan's attention.
Ye Shan smiled and said, "Profound Emperor Meng Hao is not simple. With his unreachable background, who in the Profound Ice Sea Domain would be unwilling to befriend him?"
She paused for a moment and continued, "The Tao family is getting worse with each generation. Their young master, Tao Buren, is even worse. If he dared to provoke Meng Hao, he would definitely regret it. Perhaps, he could even cause chaos in the Tao family. At that time, our Ye Family will have the opportunity to replace the Tao family. Become the greatest power in Shimu City.
The eldest daughter of the Ye Family, Ye Shan, was indeed a terrifying girl who had played many young geniuses in the palm of her hand. Her scheme was also very terrifying and she had a lot of ulterior motives.
However, at this moment, another woman had her eyes fixed on Meng Hao. This person was the Heaven Desolating Island's Han Yiyun. She looked at the exchange between Meng Hao and Ye Shan, and then saw Meng Hao leave. So, she smiled at a girl behind her and said, "Go and secretly follow Meng Hao and see where they are staying. Report to me immediately if you find anything."
"Yes, young lady." One of the women nodded and walked out of the private room. She headed in the direction Meng Hao had left in. A smile appeared on Han Yiyun's delicate face.
However, the maidservant behind her asked, a bit puzzled, "Young lady, why didn't you send someone to follow Tao Bu Ren? Instead, you sent someone to follow Meng Hao?"
Han Yi Yun smiled and said, "Meng Hao is a very good partner. Only by working with him will we have a chance to acquire the Seven Saint Nerve. We can use this opportunity to build a solid foundation for other matters in the future."
The maidservant nodded, seemingly not fully understanding. Han Yiyun didn't say anything more, but her eyes flickered with an intense desire to do battle. Clearly, she was looking forward to fighting Meng Hao.
At the moment, Meng Hao was leading Bi Xuan, Wu Xinying, and the others toward the center of Shimu City. This time, they weren't going to find any restaurants or inns. There were a lot of people there, so he wanted to find a quiet house to rent first.
"Stop." Meng Hao suddenly stopped and a faint smile appeared on his face. Bi Xuan, Wu Xinying, Sikong Yehua and the rest had puzzled expressions on their faces. They didn't know why Meng Hao suddenly stopped.
Among the people present, only Feng Fengyi and Zi Feng revealed a vigilant expression. Because just now, the two of them suddenly noticed that someone was following them. They didn't know what it meant. But in the blink of an eye, the aura that was following them disappeared.
"Young Lord, do you want me to take the Wind Lightning Guards with me to investigate?" asked Fengtian Yi softly to Meng Hao. The person who had been secretly following them was definitely up to no good. If they found him, he would never be able to return.
Meng Hao smiled and said, "There's no need. Since she wants to follow us, then let's go find a place to stay."
Therefore, Meng Hao led the group away. Not long after they had left, she patted her chest in relief. She murmured to herself. She said, "Fortunately, I hid quickly, or else he would have found me. As expected of a Profound Emperor, his senses are just too strong. "
