Chapter 003 Killing Intent
Housekeeper Zhou and Yu Wentong each took a step back, as if they were watching a show.
He is just a shady illegitimate son, showing off to whomever? Without the Left Prime Minister, Ye Ran is nothing.
The burst of true energy of a fourth-level warrior is as heavy as a thousand pieces of metal.
Meng Duo raised his hand and slapped Ye Ran on the face. The slap was fast and hard, without holding anything back.
Meng Duo's dislike for Ye Ran has reached its extreme level.
This kind of disgust is not only due to his origin, but also because he is a stain on Meng Changqin's life. If Ye Ran is not still useful, Meng Duo will definitely kill him without hesitation.
Just before Meng Duo's hand touched Ye Ran's face, it was blocked by a hand.
Then, a fist came out of nowhere and hit Meng Duo's left eye socket hard. Meng Duo screamed and his body flew away.
Ye Ran maintained his punching stance.
"What a power!"
Yu Wentong and Butler Zhou were both shocked. A waste who couldn't cultivate actually knocked away a fourth-level warrior with one punch. This illegitimate son of the Prime Minister was really unexpected.
Ye Ran frowned slightly, the anger in his eyes slowly subsided, and his mind became slightly clearer.
"The feeling of this punch...is a bit familiar."
Ye Ran slowly retracted his fist. The moment he punched out, he felt a strange sense of familiarity, as if he often beat people like this. But Ye Ran knew clearly that he usually beat people with his brutality.
Power is not something that can be exerted with such skill.
This punch should be called a boxing technique. It broke Meng Duo's true energy with just one punch.
Ye Ran has been weak since he was a child, and his grandfather used elixirs to beat him up. His physical strength is comparable to that of a warrior, but he doesn't understand martial arts. Now Ye Ran's head is in a mess, and he can't think of a reason.
"You...you! Someone come and take him down!"
Being punched away by a loser who couldn't practice, he was ashamed and angry. He tried to get up from the ground, but as soon as he moved, his head felt dizzy and he fell back down. He could only roar.
The secret guards who were keeping in the dark quickly appeared and surrounded Ye Ran.
"Are you sure you want to fight me?"
Ye Ran pinched his wrist, took out a medicine bag from his sleeve, and hid it secretly in his palm.
From the moment he entered the house yesterday afternoon until now, everyone here has looked at him with undisguised contempt. Not to mention Ye Ran's bad temper, even a clay figure would be angered.
The corner of Ye Ran's mouth curled up slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"stop."
At this moment, an angry scolding came.
Then, a faint figure slowly appeared. He was dressed in fine clothes, handsome in appearance, and full of nobility. He looked like he was only in his early thirties, but he was actually nearly fifty.
The left prime minister of the Great Qian Dynasty, Meng Changqin.
"Ye Ran?"
Meng Changqin's eyes were as deep as the sea, examining Ye Ran.
The young man is thin, with a slender figure and a straight back, but he gives off a lazy look. His handsome and handsome face is expressionless, but there is clearly a hint of surliness that cannot be hidden.
The information is correct. He is an illegitimate son who is perverse and arrogant by nature. He has a gangster spirit and will fight with others if he disagrees with him.
But what qualifications does he have to be crazy?
"Um."
Ye Ran responded casually, his voice hoarse with sleepiness.
"Take him to study. From now on, he is not allowed to leave the house even half a step."
Meng Changqin came to Meng Duo and helped him up, but did not want to say another word to Ye Ran.
One of Meng Duo's eyes was swollen, and he glanced at Ye Ran coldly with the other eye.
"Tsk, sooner or later my other eye will be swollen too."
Ye Ran sneered in his heart, but did not resist. He silently stared at Meng Changqin's leaving back for a long time before following Yu Wentong to the side courtyard.
Before Meng Changqin showed up, he used his Qi machine to lock him down.
Refuse? The murderous intention on the other side is not fake. If Ye Ran refuses, Meng Changqin will kill him without hesitation.
This biological father, known as the tenth strongest man in the Da Qian, could make Ye Ran disappear into ashes with just one slap.
Just because Ye Ran hit Meng Duo, Meng Changqin had the intention to kill him? His biological father did not have good intentions when he picked him up.
If it weren't for his mother, Ye Ran wouldn't have planned to come to Zuo Xiang's Mansion. He wanted to ask Meng Changqin on behalf of his mother if he still remembered the person from back then.
Now it seems that this question is completely unnecessary. He has never taken his mother to heart.
Mother has always known about it, so she never came to see him. Why did mother save such a white-eyed wolf back then?
"One day, I will let you kneel before your mother's grave and repent."
…
The place where Ye Ran lived was originally the courtyard where the servants lived, and it was only cleaned out after Ye Ran arrived.
Tables have been set up in the yard.
"Can you read?"
Yu Wentong held a copy of "Disciple Rules" in his hand and looked at Ye Ran calmly, but the next moment, his expression darkened.
He saw Ye Ran lying lazily on the desk, seemingly planning to sleep.
Rotten wood cannot be carved!
Bang!
Yu Wentong slammed the "Disciple Rules" hard at Ye Ran.
Ye Ran slowly raised his head, just in time to avoid the incoming scroll, his eyes were slightly cold: "Don't bother me."
After saying that, Ye Ran stood up and walked towards the house.
"It seems that I really need to teach you a lesson!"
Yu Wentong stepped forward and reached out to grab Ye Ran. He was a sixth-level warrior, so naturally he didn't take Ye Ran seriously.
But the next moment, Yu Wentong only smelled a strange fragrance coming towards his face, his body went limp, and he knew nothing else.
The three secret guards who were hiding in the dark rushed out immediately upon seeing this.
"What's going on! What did you do to your mentor..."
Before the secret guard could finish speaking, he fell straight to the ground.
"Didn't Meng Changqin tell you that although my family is in decline and lives in seclusion in the countryside, it is still a family of medicine. Are you asking me if I can read?"
Ye Ran kicked Yu Wentong and went back to the room to pack his things. In fact, he didn't have many things, just a token, a few clothes, a pack of chestnut cakes made by himself and a few milk candies.
This time, Ye Ran's purpose in coming to the capital was to go to the academy, and the Zuo Xiangfu was just a side trip.
Ye Ran doesn't sleep well and feels groggy all day long, but except for the fact that his meridians are blocked and he can't practice martial arts, his talents are pretty good in other aspects and he can learn everything very quickly.
Ye Ran was precociously intelligent and had been learning medical skills from his grandfather since he was a child. He had a very good relationship with his grandson and his grandfather arranged for him to go to the Academy.
At this time, someone from Zuo Xiang's Mansion wanted to take Ye Ran back. For the sake of his mother, Ye Ran followed Zuo Xiang's people. Unexpectedly, Meng Changqin had some idea and wanted to put him under house arrest here.
Ye Ran was completely disappointed with his biological father and had murderous intentions towards him. He didn't care about a single meal from yesterday to now, which was a bit too much. Fortunately, Ye Ran brought his own dry food.
He packed his luggage, took out a piece of homemade milk candy from the package and stuffed it into his mouth. The excessive sweetness relieved his irritable mood a little.
"I am under house arrest? Tsk, can you hold me back?"
Ye Ran looked at the four people lying on the ground, took off the clothes of a secret guard on the ground, put it on himself, then took out a fire bag, set a fire in the room, and sprinkled a handful of fire into the fire.
Medicinal powder.
In an instant, thick smoke rose along with the fire.
"It's not good! It's gone wrong!"
"Come here, put out the fire quickly!"
Someone exclaimed, and a group of servants hurried over carrying buckets of water.
Ye Ran hid aside and took advantage of the thick smoke to get out of the side courtyard. However, just one side courtyard caught fire, which was not enough for him to escape. Ye Ran took advantage of the chaos and set off a few more fires.
Not long after, seven or eight houses in the huge Prime Minister's Mansion caught fire, and more than a dozen secret guards were knocked unconscious.
Because of the powder, the fire seemed small, but thick smoke was everywhere, black and choking, condensing and surrounding the entire Prime Minister's Mansion. The servants brought water to put out the fire, but the smoke became thicker and thicker.
It's so thick that people who are smoked can't open their eyes.
"What's going on!"
Meng Changqin walked out of the study, looking at the smoke filling the courtyard, his face became somber that he was about to shed tears.
"Master Prime Minister, for some reason, it suddenly caught fire!"
Zhou Cheng's body was blackened by thick smoke and he was a little embarrassed.
Meng Changqin's face darkened horribly. The next moment, he suddenly thought of something and hurriedly shouted: "Go, tell someone to watch that little beast, don't let him escape!"
Ye Ran had already left the Prime Minister's Mansion in a big way, hired a carriage and headed towards the east gate of the city.
