Aromatic Silk Beauty

Ye Xi led them to the mansion's main hall, where they took their seats.

Zhong Meng had also prepared tea by then and placed it before Yang Wudi and the others.

"Young lady, didn't you say that as long as our Breaking Clan joined your faction, you would give us the Aromatic Silk Beauty and a medicine garden?"

"Where is the Aromatic Silk Beauty?"

"Where is the medicine garden?"

After taking a sip of tea, Yang Wudi set down his cup and fixed Ye Xi with a stern gaze.

"Senior Yang, don't be impatient."

"Since I have offered these terms, I naturally will not go back on my word."

Ye Xi took out the Aromatic Silk Beauty from her Storage Bracelet and used Soul Power to suspend it above her palm.

"Aromatic Silk Beauty!"

"It really is the Aromatic Silk Beauty!"

"Haha! If I could obtain the Aromatic Silk Beauty, I'd be willing to die for it!"

Yang Wudi rose from his seat and walked straight over to Ye Xi, carefully examining the Aromatic Silk Beauty in her hand.

Yang Wudi reached out as though he wanted to touch the Aromatic Silk Beauty, but remembering that it did not yet belong to him, he turned an inquiring gaze toward Ye Xi.

"I said that as long as Senior is willing to join, this Aromatic Silk Beauty will be yours."

Ye Xi spoke softly, then handed the Aromatic Silk Beauty to Yang Wudi.

"As for the medicine garden I mentioned, it is not within my mansion. When there is time, I can take Senior to see it."

A smile bloomed across Ye Xi's delicate face.

"No rush, no rush."

"I believe you have that medicine garden. From now on, our Breaking Clan will follow you, Young Miss."

Yang Wudi held the Aromatic Silk Beauty in both hands, his eyes filled with excitement.

Seeing the state of his elder brother, Yang Wushuang could not help raising a hand to his forehead. But when he considered the help the Aromatic Silk Beauty would bring to the Breaking Clan, he understood.

"Ahem, ahem."

"Young lady, although I agree to join your faction, I have something I want to ask. You said you could kill Tang Hao. What gives you the confidence to say that?"

Niu Gao raised his teacup and sipped leisurely, though his eyes remained fixed on Ye Xi in the seat of honor.

"At present, I have two Titled Douluo, as well as the support of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family and the Nine Heart Begonia Family. Of course, that may not be enough to kill Tang Hao, but my sister also has two Titled Douluo at her side."

"Senior Niu Gao, are you satisfied with this answer?"

Ye Xi lightly tapped the armrest of her chair with her fingers as she looked toward Niu Gao beside her.

Hearing Ye Xi's words, surprise appeared in Niu Gao's eyes, but it quickly faded.

"I am satisfied!"

"But the treatment for our Defense Clan cannot be worse than what Old Goat's Breaking Clan receives."

Niu Gao nodded gently, though deep contemplation appeared in his eyes.

With four Titled Douluo standing guard, the faction they established could almost stand alongside the Upper Three Sects as one of the continent's strongest forces.

The only thing it lacked was probably a foundation.

"Of course. Whether it is the Breaking Clan or the Defense Clan, the treatment I give you will be the best I can offer."

"Moreover, I can make you a promise here. If anything happens in the future, I will only die before you. I will never run ahead of you like the Clear Sky Sect."

Ye Xi's clear voice rang out.

As her words fell, the main hall sank into silence. Niu Gao quietly watched Ye Xi's eyes, while Yang Wudi silently put away the Aromatic Silk Beauty and turned his gaze toward her.

Yang Wudi and Niu Gao seemed to be trying to discern whether her words were true from her eyes, but all they could see was sincerity and solemnity.

"Let's not mention the Clear Sky Sect."

"What I hate most in this life is the Clear Sky Sect."

"Since we have decided to follow you from now on, we naturally believe in you."

Yang Wudi waved a large hand, his voice calm.

"Old Goat is right. Although our Defense Clan and the Breaking Clan do not have many clansmen left, we can still contribute our strength."

Niu Gao picked up his teacup and took another unhurried sip.

"I heard that the Defense Clan excels at construction. I have a blueprint that I drew myself and would like to ask Senior Niu Gao to look over it. If there are no problems, I would like it built according to this design."

Ye Xi took out a blueprint from her Storage Bracelet and handed it to Niu Gao.

After receiving the blueprint, Niu Gao immediately began examining it carefully.

Meanwhile, Ye Xi, Yang Wudi, and Yang Wushuang remained seated, quietly waiting for Niu Gao's reply.

After a while, Niu Gao set down the blueprint and looked at Ye Xi.

"There are no issues with the blueprint."

"If possible, could you take me to see the site? After all, some things need to be decided according to the actual conditions there."

Niu Gao's voice was filled with seriousness.

Construction was what their Defense Clan did best, and the blueprint Ye Xi had given him was practically right in his field.

"Of course."

"Follow me."

Ye Xi rose from her seat and headed out of the main hall.

Yang Wudi, Yang Wushuang, and Niu Gao silently followed behind Ye Xi.

They had barely stepped out of the main hall when Ling Yuan appeared before Ye Xi.

After glancing at the people behind Ye Xi, Ling Yuan moved to Ye Xi's side to protect her.

Ye Xi led them out of the mansion and headed straight in one direction.

About twenty minutes later, Ye Xi brought them before a vast open space.

"This is the site."

"Senior Niu Gao, please take a look."

Ye Xi pointed at the empty land before them, then looked back at Niu Gao.

"Alright, let me see."

Niu Gao took out the blueprint, compared it briefly, and then began surveying the surrounding environment.

"Mm, there will be no problem building here."

"Leave the construction to our Defense Clan. It should be completed in around half a year."

After returning the blueprint to Ye Xi, Niu Gao quietly looked at her.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Senior."

Ye Xi revealed a brilliant smile.

"What trouble is that?"

"Have you prepared the construction materials?"

"If not, once our Defense Clan rests for a few days, we can help prepare them."

Niu Gao waved his hand dismissively, his gaze continuing to inspect the surroundings.

"The construction materials have already been prepared and are currently stored with the Heaven Dou Imperial Family."

"Your Defense Clan can rest first. I can ask the imperial family to transport the materials here."

After thinking for a moment, Ye Xi spoke softly.
