Chapter 1474 Zhou Lao Takes Command

Seeing Xu Weiwei's fierce look, Ye Cangtian sighed and said, "The matters on the Bright Hall's side are not too troublesome, it's just that Gui Wu and Nancy were both seriously injured..."

Hearing Ye Cangtian's explanation, Xu Weiwei finally understood that Ye Cangtian had not shown up for several days because of Gui Wu, and had not returned promptly because of Nancy.

Thinking of this, Xu Weiwei couldn't help but make slight grinding sounds with her teeth.

Although she had tried her best to control herself, every time she thought of Ye Cangtian going through such trouble for other women, she gritted her teeth in hatred.

After a long while, seeing Ye Cangtian as if he hadn't heard, quietly smoking, Xu Weiwei's previously calm heart felt angry again. Why was he so unconcerned about her!

Hoo!

Exhaling heavily, Xu Weiwei calmly said, "Hey! You said you killed the Great Protector and the Second Protector, so doesn't the Bright Hall now belong to us?"

"My dear lady, such words cannot be spoken carelessly, especially not from your mouth!"

Ye Cangtian almost choked on his smoke and quickly waved his hand to explain.

Currently, the Outer Hall is controlled by Nancy, and the Inner Hall will likely fall into An Qiluo's hands. Although these are their own people and can form a united front with Huaxia, if it were to get out that the Bright Hall fell into the hands of Huaxia forces, such words would be extremely dangerous.

It would prove that Nancy is a puppet of Huaxia forces. If that were the case, Nancy would surely be overthrown.

Thus, the situation Ye Cangtian had painstakingly created would be ruined, and all his efforts would be in vain!

"Uh... I'm sorry, I remember!"

Hearing this, Xu Weiwei was slightly stunned and immediately apologized. She hadn't really thought that far ahead, and only understood after Ye Cangtian explained.

"Alas, remember, in your position, you must consider all situations before speaking."

Ye Cangtian sighed and continued, "Also, although the Bright Hall has signed a peace agreement with the Huaxia forces, it does not mean there are no frictions between the two sides, so you must continue to strengthen your vigilance."

After all, only the high-level members of the Bright Hall signed the treaty, and the lower-level executors might disregard the orders of their superiors and secretly engage in friction with Huaxia.

One must know that within the Bright Hall, there is no shortage of those who harbor animosity towards Huaxia.

The hatred those people hold for Huaxia will not dissipate in a short period...

Listening to Ye Cangtian's instructions, Xu Weiwei nodded solemnly and said, "I know, don't worry, I will work hard. I don't seek to surpass Grandpa's achievements, but I seek not to make foolish mistakes!"

"No! Your goal should not be set within reach, your goal should be loftier!"

Ye Cangtian shook his head and continued, "In the future, you will surpass the old man, and you have the ability and talent to surpass him. I have always believed in you!"

"I..."

Hearing this, a warm current flowed through Xu Weiwei's heart, and she also became more confident.

She nodded heavily and said, "You're right, I can surpass the old man. Just you wait and see!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian showed a faint smile and said, "I'm waiting for that day. Oh right, I'm about to go to the Huaxia Ruins. I came this time to bid you farewell. Kyoto and Xin Wan are entrusted to you..."

...

Night, Yan Hua Xiao Yuan.

Ye Cangtian had Lan Yue contact Elder Zhou, and now the three of them were sitting in the small courtyard, admiring the moonlight while discussing something.

"You little brat, are you preparing to go to the Huaxia Ruins?"

Elder Zhou glanced at Ye Cangtian and put down his teacup, asking.

Elder Zhou had already heard some of the matters concerning the Bright Hall, and they were basically concluded. The remaining matters could be completely handed over to Nancy and An Qiluo.

If, in such a situation, neither of them could manage the Bright Hall properly, then it could only be said that Ye Cangtian's judgment was flawed, indicating that the abilities of the two were too poor.

But one was the former pride of the Bright Hall, and the other was the Third Protector of the Inner Hall. How could their abilities be poor?

Therefore, there was no need to inquire about the Bright Hall, and coupled with the fact that the Dark Association was also generally peaceful, Ye Cangtian would undoubtedly return to the Hidden Group to continue his development.

"Old fellow, you are right. I came this time just to say hello." Ye Cangtian nodded without concealment.

Hmph!

Elder Zhou snorted and continued, "Just saying hello?"

"Uh..."

At these words, Ye Cangtian suddenly felt awkward, scratched his head, and said, "Actually, there is one small matter I need to trouble you with!"

"Trouble you?"

Upon hearing such a word, Elder Zhou immediately became vigilant. Ye Cangtian had always been disrespectful to him, and now that he was using the respectful term "you," he must not be up to any good!

Thinking of this, Elder Zhou glared and said, "Alright, you don't need to say anything more. Your master will not agree!"

Ye Cangtian heard this and said indignantly, "Old man, I haven't even said anything yet! How can you refuse? Is this how you are as a master?"

"Hmph! I am willing!"

Elder Zhou snorted and continued, "Since it is you who seeks a favor, and it has nothing to do with me, why should I agree!"

"You..."

Ye Cangtian was so angry that his teeth ached. After a moment, he said, "You old geezer, I'm going to the Huaxia Ruins to clean up your mess!

If you don't agree to me, then the matter of Yulong Mountain Villa can be handed over to whomever you please. I won't serve anymore!"

Hiss!

Hearing Ye Cangtian confronting Elder Zhou like this, Lan Yue beside him broke out in a cold sweat.

If he really angered Elder Zhou, they would be beaten to death...

"Hmm?"

Upon mentioning Yulong Mountain Villa, Elder Zhou's eyes began to turn.

The establishment of Yulong Mountain Villa back then was also for Huaxia. He hadn't expected that he would have no time to manage it afterward, leading to its current state.

Now, he truly had no inclination to return and manage Yulong Mountain Villa. m..oΓg

Thinking about it, Elder Zhou looked at Ye Cangtian and snorted, "Brat, you win. Speak, what is it?"

"Heh heh."

Ye Cangtian chuckled and quickly stepped forward, saying, "Old man, you're already old. I think you should enjoy your twilight years..."

"What nonsense! Your master is still young!"

Elder Zhou's eyes immediately widened. He did not admit that he was old, let alone enjoy his twilight years.

"Heh heh, yes, that phrase is indeed not suitable for you!"

Ye Cangtian chuckled awkwardly and continued, "Alright, then I won't beat around the bush. My intention is for you, old man, to station in Kyoto..."

In Ye Cangtian's opinion, although Xu Weiwei's ability was good, her strength still needed improvement.

And he didn't want any accidents to occur in Kyoto after he left, so he wanted Elder Zhou to station there.

If Elder Zhou agreed, then he could also rest assured about Tang Xin Wan.

Upon hearing this, Elder Zhou's expression became serious, and then he said, "Do you think this is necessary?"

In Elder Zhou's view, the Bright Hall and the Dark Association would no longer be enemies of the Huaxia forces. So, in the outside world, what forces could possibly deal with the Huaxia Dragon Group?

"I think it's necessary."

Ye Cangtian understood Elder Zhou's meaning. In fact, before making this decision, he had asked himself.

He looked at Elder Zhou and continued, "Now that the Four Seals are under Huaxia's control, other forces will definitely not be convinced and will develop covetous intentions. If there are no strong individuals to guard them, Kyoto can indeed have trouble easily."

He paused and continued, "Don't forget, there are also some reclusive experts in the outside world!"

"This..."

Elder Zhou was slightly stunned, and his gaze immediately shifted.

There were still some powerful recluses in the world, and Elder Zhou was aware of them. Not to mention the appearance of Louis II before, who was a recluse.

These recluses were indifferent to fame and fortune in normal times, but whether they could resist the temptation of the Four Seals was an unknown.

And after the battle with the Bright Hall, Ye Cangtian had revealed all his trump cards. Coupled with the previous publicity by the Bright Hall on the Battle Net, all forces probably knew about this matter now.

Therefore, Ye Cangtian's concerns were somewhat reasonable.

Thinking of this, Elder Zhou looked at Ye Cangtian and said, "Good, then your master will stay and remove all your worries!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian's face immediately broke into a smile. He knew Elder Zhou would not refuse.

The next moment, Ye Cangtian took out the Bright Seal from his Qiankun Bag and handed it to Elder Zhou.

"You are..."

Looking at the Bright Seal in front of him, Elder Zhou was instantly stunned, completely not understanding Ye Cangtian's intention.

After all, he also knew the abilities of the Four Seals. If the Four Seals were in Ye Cangtian's hands, then with Ye Cangtian's cultivation, he could basically be an invincible existence among the Heaven rank.

But why did he disassemble the Four Seals and give him one of them?
