Chapter 141

When the two returned home, neither of the two women at home were home.

Mother-in-law Ma Lan had gone to the chess room to play mahjong and hadn't come back yet, and Xiao Churan hadn't gotten off work either.

So Ye Chen first went back to the bedroom and took the Thunderclap Wood out of the box.

A rich spiritual qi emanated from the lightning strike wood.

Ye Chen sat cross-legged on the floor, put the lightning strike wood in his palm, his eyes slightly closed, his body operated the "Nine Xuan Heavenly Sutra" heart method, slowly sucking the spiritual qi into his body.

When he opened his eyes, his eyes were bright, and his aura had changed dramatically.

The Blood Dragon Lightning Strike Wood in his hand was already somewhat dim.

But even with the loss of aura, it still had some remnants of the most rigid and righteous thunder aura, and it was considered a treasure.

If there were other treasures to assist him, Ye Chen would be able to use it to refine some simple magic weapons now.

When he came out of the room, it was already evening.

Just as he arrived at the living room, Ye Chen heard his mother-in-law snort coldly and said, "Now that you have a big frame, you don't even cook anymore, waiting for me to serve you, right?"

Ye Chen snapped and smiled, explaining, "Sorry ah mom, I was too tired in the afternoon and fell asleep."

"Yo, did going to the auction tire you out? Or did pitting Xiao Hailong tire you out?" Ma Lan said without any good humor.

Ye Chen flinched for a moment before shaking his head, "I didn't pit Xiao Hailong, where did you hear this news from ..."

Ma Lan let out a cold snort and said, "Of course it was the old lady who called over to say that, even if you lost face, you even dragged Xiao Hailong to be kicked out, and the old lady called to give me a bad scolding! You say that you are a waste of space, can you save your heart and cause less trouble for your family?"

Xiao Churan interjected from the side, "Mom, I think Xiao Hailong was kicked out, it must be because he got into some trouble himself, it has nothing to do with Ye Chen, Ye Chen is not that kind of person."

"How is it not related?" Ma Lan slammed her chopsticks in anger: "Xiao Hailong came back and complained, saying that because Ye Chen used improper means to get the invitation, after being found out, he angered Jumbo Pavilion, and even dragged him, as a member of the Xiao family, he was also kicked out, and the master of Jumbo Pavilion even let out a word, not letting the Xiao family go in the future, and if they go, they'll break their legs! The Xiao family has lost face this time!"

Only then did Xiao Changkun open his mouth, "Hmph! That invitation is simply a problem, I see ah, it must be that Xiao Hailong kid himself caused trouble, afraid of mom chastising him, so he deliberately dumped the pot on Ye Chen ..."

"You're still here to help this loser talk, if it wasn't for you wanting to go to that auction, could all these things happen?" Ma Lan glared at Xiao Changkun and scolded.

Xiao Changkun hurriedly shut up and ate, not daring to make a sound.

Ma Lan impatiently said, "He's a loser, what ability can he have to get an invitation, now that he offended Xiao Hailong as well, I'll see how he ends up ..."

Before she could finish her sentence, there was a sudden knock on the door, followed by a low voice.

"Excuse me, is Mr. Ye home?"

Ma Lan's face was tense for a moment, and she glared at Ye Chen in annoyance, "Oh no, it must be the old lady coming to raise hell, look what you've done!"

"Let's take a look first." Xiao Churan also looked grave, stood up and walked towards the door.

The living room was silent, Ma Lan and Xiao Changkun both stood up nervously, calculating how to respond.

Ye Chen's face sank slightly, if the old lady reversed black and white and brought people to barge through the door to ask for punishment, then he would not have to give the old lady face anymore!
