Before the Meeting

The city lord was clearly feeling upset and displeased whenever he saw this woman from the Yang family. It was already a year when this Yang family suddenly appear in his Crystal Water City. At that time, his family the Yun family and the other two ruling families in the city were taken by surprised. The Yang family appeared out of nowhere and their momentum was strong. In just after coming into the city, they already seized several businesses in the city. His Yun family and the other two send some of their men to investigate where did this Yang family come from. But unfortunately, their investigation ended up in failure.

It was as if this Yang family came out of thin air. Because of the failure of their investigation, the other three families, the Yun family, Meng family, and the Ye family agreed to join hands in order to suppress this Yang family.

"Now.. now.City lord Yun, don't give me that look or else I might misunderstand you. I remember you have such a loving and beautiful wife. I heard that you even refuse to take a concubine because you love her too much. What would she think if she saw you looking at me like that" Yang Mei's seductive voice sounded really attractive as she even giggled at the end. She was staring at the city lord with her charming bright eyes.

"I came here instead of my father because he was busy on something" Yang Mei said as she takes her seat in the room.

City lord Yun looks like he has something to say towards Yang Mei, but instead decided just to close his mouth. They then began their meeting.

------------------------------

In the busy streets of the Crystal Water City, a young man wearing shabby clothes holding a sword was walking. Although the streets were crowded by people, he was walking as if he was alone. Which his every step, the people around him automatically make was to him. Even they don't know why but when they see the young man their body just automatically move. The young man was clearly Ye Yun.

Before Ye Yun came out of the room, he took the gold coins that the beautiful lady left under the bed and decided to use it to buy some new clothes. He decided to make himself at least look presentable when he trash those people. Ye Yun then saw a clothing shop and enters inside.

As he just went inside, he was greeted by looks of scorn from the people inside. He knew that the shop he just entered into was a high-class shop. Each piece of clothing in this shop already cost several silvers, some even cost a couple of gold coins. One must know that a single silver can feed the mouth of a family of three for a whole year. A single gold coin is equivalent to a hundred pieces of silver. That's why when he entered wearing his shabby clothes, they all look towards him like that.

Not minding the stares he was receiving, Ye Yun proceeds towards the inner section where the expensive clothes were displayed.

"Little beggar do you think you can just enter here casually? With what you are wearing, I am sure that you are only here to create some trouble. Quickly leave my shop before you dirty my clothes" as Ye Yun was about to enter the inner section. A voice full of scorn and disgust stopped him from his advance. He then turned and saw a middle-aged man with grey hair and beard was staring at him as if he was a trash.

Seeing that Ye Yun was just staring at him, the middle-aged man becomes angry and shouted at him, "Bastard didn't you hear what I just said. Do you want me to personally throw you out of my store!"

Ye Yun ignored the middle-aged man and continues to walk forward.

When the middle-aged man saw that the beggar just ignored his words, his anger suddenly exploded. He thought to himself, 'A little beggar like you dared to ignored and act like this in my store! If I didn't break some of your legs some will thought that I was kind' with that in his mind. The middle-aged man move towards Ye Yun with large strides. A weak small light covered his right hand as he tried to catch the Ye Yun.

The middle-aged man released a vicious smile as he thought on how he will teach this beggar a lesson. If it was the Ye Yun in the past, he will definitely succeed. But unfortunately for him, the Ye Yun now was an expert. As his hands were about to reach Ye Yun's neck, the young man in front of him suddenly vanish. Startled of what just happened, the middle-aged man turns around only to feel someone gripped his neck tightly. His eyes widen as he stare at in front of him, he can only see that the beggar he wanted to teach a lesson was gripping his neck tightly.

Fear shows in the eyes of the middle aged man as he tried to gasped for breath. Beads of cold sweat started to appear in his head as he knew that he messes with someone who he should not mess with. His body shakes in fear as he stares at the young man with pleading eyes.

Even Ye Yun was quite shocked of what happened, he just felt his body automatically moves when he felt some danger coming behind him. One second after, he just knew that he was holding the middle-aged man by his neck. Although he was confused at first, Ye Yun knew that it was his instinct which moves, and that felt good.

Looking at the middle-aged man who's whole head already turned purple, Ye Yun let go of the man and said coldly, "Get me a pair of white clothes and a pink sash"

"Y...yes" the middle-aged man started to takes some heavy breaths as soon as he falls in the ground. He was staring fearfully towards this young man who almost took his life. Not wasting any more seconds, he hurriedly went inside and started to do his request.

Seeing how the middle-aged man runs inside, Ye Yun felt satisfied. When he saw those eyes staring at him full of fear, he instantly feels joy inside his heart. He felt a heavy burden was released from his heart and he was now free.

Just a couple of minutes, the middle-aged man came out holding a pair of clothes and a pink sash. The reason Ye Yun want these clothes was that he kinda likes the way on how that Aizen dresses. After receiving the clothes he went into a room and started to change.

After several minutes, Ye Yun came out wearing a pair of white clothes and a pink sash around his waist. His sword hanging on his side, while his hair which reaches his back was now tied in a high ponytail. Walking in front of the mirror, Ye Yun said, "As I thought, this type of style really suits me"

When the middle-aged man saw Ye Yun came out of the room. He was surprised to see how someone can drastically change just by how they dress. If before Ye Yun was like a harmless beggar, now he was like a drawn sword ready cut everything around.

"I will be taking this as a compensation for sparing your life," Ye Yun said without even looking at the middle-aged man.

"Y..yes..yes.Thank you for sparing my lowly life" the middle-aged man dare not to ask for a payment as he knew his life can be easily taken by this young man. The other customer inside was also surprised to see that the middle-aged man was acting like a scared cat in front of this young man.

Walking in the streets with an arrogant smile on his face, Ye Yun said in a bone-chilling way, "Ye family, uncle, and auntie I will now take what belongs to me in first place"
