Starting Reward – A Three Thousand Assassin Network

Chapter 27 – Zhao Yitian? Zhao Hao’s Feats

“Zhao family, Zhao Ling’er, Zhao Hao.” Ye Chen turned his head, sizing up the siblings. Then he raised an eyebrow, looking a bit odd. “Zhao Hao, Zhao Yitian?”

Zhao Ling’er, born into a prominent family, exuded an aristocratic air even when standing still.

Zhao Hao, on the other hand, had a carefree demeanor, arms crossed, leaning against the wall, casting a sidelong glance at Ye Chen.

“This Zhao sister looks pretty good, but this brother, his gaze isn’t too good!” Ye Chen pursed his lips.

“Pfft!” Ye Xue burst into laughter at Ye Chen’s words.

Even Zhao Ling’er covered her mouth and chuckled.

“Hey, buddy, can’t you speak without these personal attacks?” Zhao Hao was a bit unhappy. “Personal attack? Really?” Ye Chen turned to Tian Yan and asked, “Did I say something wrong earlier?”

Seeing Ye Chen asking, Tian Yan shook her head immediately. “No, Young Master was right. There’s indeed an issue with his eyes!”

“Do you need me to treat him?” After speaking, Tian Yan’s eyes revealed a chill, making Zhao Hao feel a chill down his spine, feeling as though a boulder was pressing on him, making it difficult to breathe.

“Xiao Yan sister, no!” Ye Xue hurriedly intervened.

She had witnessed Tian Yan’s terror firsthand. This was a ruthless person, vividly etched in her memory.

A few years ago, when Ye Xue secretly took Ye Chen out for a stroll, they encountered a group of hooligans who spoke obscenities to her. At Ye Chen’s behest, Tian Yan swiftly acted, cutting off their tongues.

“Alright, after all, they are guests. We should give Zhao Yitian some face.” Ye Chen waved his hand.

Tian Yan retracted her imposing manner and then smiled at Zhao Hao. At the same time, she was somewhat puzzled. Who was Zhao Yitian? He could actually make Ye Chen give face! Both Ye Xue and Zhao Ling’er reacted similarly.

But in Zhao Hao’s eyes, Tian Yan’s stunning smile felt like being stared down by a demon, sending shivers down his spine.

However, as a member of the Zhao family, he was fearless. Despite feeling immense fear, Zhao Hao refused to show it.

“Hmph, I am a rare genius of the Zhao family. I’ll surely surpass you sooner or later!” After saying this, he looked at Ye Chen. “You’re Ye Chen from the Ye family, a decent opponent. I’ll remember you!”

Ye Chen smiled and said, “Remember clearly, this young master actually has another name, Ye Liangchen!”

“Remember, Liangchen enjoys dealing with those who think they are outstanding! In this area, I have a hundred ways to make it hard for you. If you want to try, Liangchen wouldn’t mind playing with you!” Zhao Yitian, do you want to give it a try?”

Hearing this, Zhao Hao was momentarily stunned before realizing, “Zhao Yitian, are you calling me by that?”

“Yes, how about it? Doesn’t this name sound domineering?”

After some contemplation, Zhao Hao kept muttering the name, but his expression became increasingly excited. “Zhao Yitian, this name indeed sounds domineering. I’ve decided, from now on, I’ll be called Zhao Yitian.”

“For the sake of this name, I, Zhao Yitian, won’t hold this matter against you today. However, Brother Liangchen, if we were to compete and you used local forces, even if you win … I, Zhao Yitian, would be the first one to not accept it!”

Beside him, Zhao Ling’er, listening to Zhao Hao’s words, slapped her forehead and couldn’t help but move away from her brother, going to Ye Xue’s side.

“My brother is beyond help!”

Meanwhile, Ye Xue was laughing heartily. “Ye Liangchen, Zhao Yitian, hahaha …”

“What ridiculous names!”

“I heard you’re the little overlord of the Zhao family. I wonder, what feats do you have?” Ye Chen was a bit puzzled.

“Well, there are many to talk about in this regard.” Zhao Hao’s face brightened at the mention and became interested.

“I’m a rare martial arts genius of the Zhao family, both academically and morally outstanding.

“At the age of three, I saw those young girls neglecting their homes, frequently gathering in twos and threes to drink and revel, so I secretly destroyed their gathering places.

“At five, I encountered a fallen girl whose head was covered, crying pitifully. I invited her to my home and settled the matter personally.

“At seven, I saw a window in Aunt Wang’s house leaking wind. I used my body to block it, letting her know that the Zhao family has someone who cares for the people.

“At nine, it was impressive. I saw a group of women actually robbing some men in broad daylight, even stripping them of their clothes. How could I tolerate this happening in our Zhao family’s territory? I immediately brought these people back to the mansion for judgment.

“As for some other trivial matters, I won’t go into detail.”

“How about it, scared now?” Seeing Ye Chen’s stunned expression, Zhao Hao became even more pleased with himself.

“Uh, impressive!” Ye Chen couldn’t help but give Zhao Hao a thumbs up.

Damn, could a person do all this?

In any case, Ye Chen felt he couldn’t do it, let alone keep it in mind and boast about it.

This completely refreshed Ye Chen’s understanding of Zhao Hao once again. He felt that compared to Zhao Yitian, Jiang Wenming was just a small potato.

Jiang Wenming was fearless from the start and dared to say anything. But Zhao Hao not only did it but also boldly proclaimed it as an achievement.

And Zhao Hao didn’t notice the look of love and care in Zhao Ling’er’s eyes. She secretly lamented, “Alas, unfortunate for the family. How could our Zhao family produce such a monster!”

“Now that Brother Liangchen acknowledges defeat, I believe it’s also due to my remarkable feats. In the future, if Liangchen brother comes to Qingzhou, I, Zhao Yitian, will surely let you experience the power of our Zhao family. For three generations, my Zhao family has been composed of generals, with countless subordinates. A single arrow piercing through the clouds, thousands of soldiers coming to meet! Today, you’ve given me face. In the future, I’ll certainly welcome you with open arms.”

Ye Chen became more speechless as he listened, feeling that this kid was beyond help. He wondered who had taught him since childhood. This seed had grown crooked.

“I’ve heard of your extraordinary feats, Yitian brother, and I genuinely admire them.”

This was unacceptable!

“Haha, don’t mention it. They are just small matters, not worth mentioning!” Zhao Hao waved his hand, but his face was even happier.

Seeing the two kids being so affectionate toward each other, Ye Xue immediately interrupted their conversation. “Alright, we’ll talk about it later. Anything else?”

“Brother Chen, I’ve heard that Luo Shen Lake is a major attraction in Luocheng. I’ve never had the chance to visit. Today, you must accompany us.”

“What’s so special about the lake? If you want to see, go to the corridor, stand there, and you’ll have a panoramic view of Luo Shen Lake!” Ye Chen pointed outside to the corridor.

He didn’t want to exert that much effort; lying down was far more comfortable. Besides, the entire Luo Shen Lake belonged to him.

“Hmph, you’re so clueless about romanticism. Let’s see how you’ll find a wife in the future!” Ye Xue grumbled.

“Ha, as an outstanding person like me, who in the world is worthy of me? Besides, aren’t the maids around me pretty enough?” Ye Chen scoffed.

Glancing at Tian Yan and another stunning woman nearby, their beauty was comparable to hers.

“I don’t know where you got your luck from, but to find such a peerless woman as Sister Tian Yan,” Ye Xue sighed.

Tian Yan smiled, “Xiao Xue is also very beautiful. Who knows whom she’ll marry in the future?”

“Ah! I … I won’t marry anyone; I’ll stay in the Ye family forever!” Ye Xue blushed.

Watching his sister’s reaction, Ye Chen sighed internally: Ah, the thoughts of people in ancient times are truly feudal. Just a sentence, and my sister blushes!
