Chapter 146: A Warning from Zhu Zhuqing, What I Hate Most is Being Threatened!
"Young Master Ye, I'm here on the order of our Youming Duke's Mansion's eldest young lady. Please come and speak with me."
"If there's a misunderstanding, it won't look good for either of us!"
"You really are an extraordinary genius, but even in the Youming Duke's Mansion, even geniuses are still subordinates!"
Looking at Lin Yu, Wang An, although he already had a vague sense, decided to give it one more try. He clasped his hands and spoke in a low voice.
His tone had grown a little threatening, though he left some room for negotiation.
If Lin Yu came over obediently, everything would be fine. Wang An could pretend that Lin Yu didn't understand the situation and had just rejected him earlier.
But if Lin Yu refused despite everything, it would mean that he was choosing to stand against their eldest young lady!
"Sorry! I have nothing to say to your eldest young lady. I already know about the Youming Duke's Mansion, but I've chosen to help Zhu Zhuqing."
Facing Wang An's threat, Lin Yu gave a carefree smile, directly choosing to lay his cards on the table and rejecting any involvement with Zhu Zhuqing.
There was no ambiguity, no evasive language.
He chose to give Zhu Zhuqing the greatest trust and assurance!
With his current strength, there was no need to compromise any longer.
No matter what happened, he was confident that he could handle everything firmly!
Hearing that Lin Yu had outright rejected the eldest young lady's offer, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but look at him, her eyes filled with surprise. Soon after, a deep sense of gratitude surged within her.
She hadn't expected Lin Yu to so directly refuse any involvement with her sister, Zhu Zhuqing.
Before, although Lin Yu had saved her life, she still had doubts about whether he truly came to change her destiny.
But now, all her doubts vanished!
Because if he wasn't truly here to help her and change her fate, he wouldn't have chosen to directly offend Zhu Zhuqing.
Whether it was saving her life before or his words and actions now, it all proved that he was sincere.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing had finally chosen to fully trust Lin Yu!
"Ye Liangchen, are you sure you don't want to think this over?"
"In our Youming Duke's Mansion, everyone knows that the eldest young lady holds the ultimate authority. How can you choose to oppose her and side with the second young lady? Do you really want to stay in Youming Duke's Mansion?"
Hearing that Lin Yu had directly rejected her offer, Wang An's face darkened, and his words became filled with a heavy threat.
"Heh, your eldest young lady is the one who has the final say in the Youming Duke's Mansion. But may I ask, what about the Duke and his wife?"
In response to Wang An's threat, Lin Yu just smiled playfully.
Zhu Zhuqing hadn't even become the crown princess yet, and even if she did, a married daughter was like water spilled out of a jar.
Zhu Zhuqing's power came from Youming Duke Zhu Xuanfeng.
In unimportant matters, Zhu Xuanfeng would naturally give face to his eldest daughter.
But when it came to the interests of the Youming Spirit Cat family, would Zhu Xuanfeng favor his future daughter-in-law, who would definitely become the queen of the Star Luo Empire, or his own family?
That was an interesting question!
"In our Youming Duke's Mansion, the highest status belongs to the Duke and his wife, but they don't involve themselves in all the mansion's affairs."
"Anyway, the eldest young lady has immense power in the mansion. You still want to go against her? Have you thought about the consequences?"
"I advise you to think carefully. Otherwise, you'll never be able to cultivate in Youming Duke's Mansion again!"
Upon hearing Lin Yu mention Youming Duke Zhu Xuanfeng and his wife, Wang An's expression froze. Then, he quickly became grim and said,
"Are you threatening me?"
In response to Wang An's naked threat, Lin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.
"You could understand it that way."
Wang An let out a cold snort.
"No need to understand. Let me tell you, the one thing I hate the most is being threatened. Bring whatever methods you have. I, Ye Liangchen, have a thousand ways to handle them!"
Hearing Wang An's words, Lin Yu gave a cold laugh, the corners of his mouth curling into a devilish smile as he spoke.
"You! You'll regret this!"
Seeing that Lin Yu was completely unrepentant, Wang An's anger boiled over. After spitting out a final warning, he turned and left angrily.
He would definitely go back and report what this oblivious Ye Liangchen had said to Zhu Zhuqing. This guy should prepare to be cut off from all cultivation resources in Youming Duke's Mansion, just like the second young lady!
"Zhuqing, let's continue training!"
After disdainfully watching Wang An leave, Lin Yu turned back to Zhu Zhuqing.
...
On the other side, after Wang An angrily left, it didn't take long for Zhu Zhuqing to hear that Lin Yu had not only rejected her recruitment but had done so in a way that made it clear he was going to side with Zhu Zhuqing.
This made Zhu Zhuqing's face darken, and she decided that starting today, she would make Lin Yu pay.
So what if he's a seven-year-old Great Soul Master?
A genius who hasn't grown up is nothing!
The next day, Zhu Zhuqing's revenge began!
Because of her lack of understanding of the martial soul, and because she didn't know which courses in the morning were beneficial to Lin Yu, Zhu Zhuqing didn't target Lin Yu in this area.
As for the cafeteria, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't intervene.
At least she couldn't prevent Lin Yu from getting food.
So, she couldn't target him in the cafeteria either.
But in the Soul Fighting Arena...
In the afternoon, as Lin Yu continued to train Zhu Zhuqing in the Soul Fighting Arena, teaching her combat techniques, a young man dressed in a black and purple uniform, handsome but with an arrogant expression, arrived at the battle room where Lin Yu and Zhu Zhuqing were.
"Not bad! This place is really good..."
As he looked around, the arrogant youth nodded in approval before turning to Lin Yu and Zhu Zhuqing on the arena.
"Hey, you two, I'll take your arena. You can leave now!"
At the arena, Lin Yu had been pointing out Zhu Zhuqing's fighting techniques.
Hearing the arrogant voice coming from a distance, Lin Yu immediately turned his head, his brows furrowing slightly.
"Who are you? Can't you see we're in the middle of a Soul Fighting competition?"
"Haha! This guy, doesn't he know the rules of the Soul Fighting Arena?"
Hearing Lin Yu's words, the men and women accompanying the arrogant youth laughed loudly.
This made Lin Yu furrow his brows even deeper as he turned to look at Zhu Zhuqing beside him.
