The Supreme Soldier King of the Lady CEO

Chapter 1410 - 1387: Wuya Town, Cao Bin, Undercurrents Surging

Endless Deep Mountains, Wuya Town.After Ye Huan and the Empress dealt with those seven Evil Martial Artists, to avoid attracting too much attention with their distinctive attire, they first went to a clothing store and each bought a set of hanfu to change into.

The leader of the Evil Martial Artists was quite wealthy. In two large bags, there was a total of one hundred and twenty gold coins.

A set of ancient-style hanfu cost only five gold coins.

After buying two sets, one hundred and ten were left.

"Brother Ye, does this... does this outfit suit me?" As they stepped out of the hanfu store and onto the bustling street, the Empress asked Ye Huan with a hint of shyness, her small hands clenched tightly behind her back, standing on tiptoe and blinking her eyes.

Ye Huan smiled and said, "With your figure and looks, you can pull off any outfit. If something doesn’t suit you, it must be the outfit’s poor design."

This time, he was generous with his praise.

Earlier, when the Empress came out of the dressing room, her demeanor and outfit had already stunned him.

Her long, silky black hair flowed down her shoulders like a waterfall, with some hair atop her head styled into a bun, pierced through by a jade hairpin. Her exquisitely carved face, lightly adorned with makeup, appeared pure yet with a touch of allure, a blend of innocence and desire.

She wore a light pink floor-length hanfu dress, with wide hems embroidered with light pink floral patterns. Underneath, a thin cicada wing shawl and a rose-scented chest garment revealed a silhouette. A silver-white broad belt cinched her slim waist, keeping the ample hanfu skirt from hiding her voluptuous and sultry figure, her flawless S-shaped curves manifested vividly.

Sadly, those slender, fair, enticingly fleshy legs were entirely concealed by the long dress, leaving no chance for anyone to take in the view.

Overall, after she donned the hanfu, her figure still invited reverie, but it now retained some of her former sultry allure while adding a touch of classical, subtle, light, and elegant beauty.

The Empress’s heart bloomed with happiness upon receiving such compliments from Ye Huan.

For women, what could bring more joy than receiving compliments on their beauty from the person they love?

"Wuya Town seems quite lively," Ye Huan suddenly murmured.

He scanned his surroundings.

Barbers, shoe shiners, street vendors selling candied haws, opera performers—people from all walks of life were present, making the town’s atmosphere very bustling and noisy.

The streets were packed with people; what was once a fairly wide street now seemed overwhelmed and congested, with occasional outbursts of cursing when someone’s foot was stepped on.

Moreover, in a small town like Wuya Town, usually occupied by ordinary people, Ancient Martial Artists were not in large numbers.

But tonight, out of every ten people on the streets, five were formidable Ancient Martial Artists!

The Empress collected her thoughts, nodded slightly, her face tense, and said, "Brother Ye, I also noticed that there are unusually many people in this town, such that it almost exceeds the town’s capacity."

"Let’s go and see what’s happening." Frowning, Ye Huan took the Empress’s hand and led her into a nearby tavern.

They ordered a few simple dishes and sat down at a table on the second floor near the railing.

As he expected, places like taverns, where people of all kinds gathered, were indeed the best spots for gathering intelligence!

Soon, meaningful bits of information came to them!

"Brother Wang, Brother Li, and... is that Brother Hu? Oh my, what a coincidence, you guys are in Wuya Town too?"

"Ha, it’s because Old Qin is getting married soon, so we’re here for the wedding, to offer our blessings, and to see if his bride is really the voluptuous beauty she’s rumored to be. If that’s true, knowing Old Qin’s nature, while he’s enjoying the feast, we might get to enjoy some of the leftovers! If he gets satisfied, he surely wouldn’t mind letting us have a taste of his wife, have some fun."

"Haha, we had the same thought when we came this time. With our families being strict, there’s no chance to fool around with women, so if we get the opportunity to play with Old Qin’s wife this time, that would be sheer bliss! Come, let’s go inside and sit down!"

"It’s been ages since we last met; today, let’s not go home until we’re drunk, haha!"

At the door, four men clad in hanfu robes, each wielding a longsword, exchanged laughs and patted each other’s shoulders, entering the tavern together and taking their seats on the ground floor.

Upon hearing those four, a flicker of genuine murderous intent flashed deep in Ye Huan’s pupils, instantly lowering the surrounding temperature.

Many people shivered inexplicably, feeling a sudden chilling sensation pierce from their feet up to their skull, leaving them cold all over.

"These Ancient Martial Artists, appearing refined and wealthy on the outside, unexpectedly harbor such filthy thoughts deep inside, their minds so dirty, they’re nothing but a bunch of beasts in clothing, disgusting!" The Empress’s face turned ashen as she cursed angrily.

The level of filth in these Ancient Martial Artists’ hearts was probably not much different from that of Evil Martial Artists.

If you had to say, the only difference between them and Evil Martial Artists is that they care about face, while Evil Martial Artists could care less!

In short, these Ancient Martial Artists are hypocrites, while Evil Martial Artists are genuine scoundrels, and there’s really not much difference between them!

After cursing, the Empress took a deep breath to quell her displeasure and said, "Brother Ye, it seems that these extra Ancient Martial Artists in the town are here for the Six Doors and Qin Family alliance."

Ye Huan thought it wasn’t entirely so and took a sip of the rice wine the waiter brought, shifting his gaze to the ground floor, "Not necessarily, let’s watch first."

"Old Wang, no doubt about it, this show Old Qin’s putting on is really something else. I’ve heard over seventy different Ancient Martial factions, seventeen fourth-tier families, fourteen third-tier families, and two second-tier families would send senior emissaries to attend the wedding. That’s some serious status. When I got married, only a few fourth-tier families showed up, really puts people in a bad mood by comparison."

"No one’s saying otherwise. My wedding wasn’t half as grand as Old Qin’s this time! And speaking of which, not sure if you’ve heard this, but the Qin Family Patriarch Qin Fen has been putting every last connection he can muster to send an invitation directly to the top-tier family—the Cao Family!"

"You’re kidding, you mean the Cao Family? The one ranked seventh among the Hundred Families? Unreal! How can the Qin Family, a fourth-tier family, even think of inviting the Cao Family? How’s that even possible?"

"Whether they can make it or not is still uncertain, but what I can tell you is the invitation was sent to the Cao Family. I reckon anything’s possible! Back in Qin Fen’s youth, he was a super talent renowned in our Endless Deep Mountains. He had interactions with talents from top-tier families at the Song Family, so among fourth-tier family heads, his connections are the widest and most powerful. Who’s to say he won’t pull it off and get the Cao Family to support the Qin Family’s alliance!"

The four chatted on, eating meat and drinking wine without reservation, their voices loud enough for everyone in the tavern to hear.

At this point, someone at the neighboring table chimed in with a smile, "This must be Young Master Li Ying from the fourth-tier family Li Family. You must be newly arrived in Wuya Town and haven’t gotten the latest. Let me tell you, the strongest genius from our Cao Family’s direct line—Dragon Son Cao Bin has already arrived in Wuya Town to bolster the Qin Family’s status!"

This revelation shocked everyone present!
