"Let her come in!"
Ever since he broke through to the Grandmaster level, the Xie Clan’s trading company has been providing substantial support to Sheng Lanzhi.
You could say, without the help from the Xie Clan’s trading company, Sheng Lanzhi’s trading business couldn’t have run this smoothly. A reciprocal gesture, meeting her isn’t a problem.
"Yes, I’ll bring her in right away!"
Upon hearing Ye Liuyun say this.
Si Nan didn’t say much, answered and quickly left, bringing in Xie Ling’Er who was waiting outside.
Though it’s been a long time since their last meeting.
Xie Ling’Er’s graceful figure is still captivating, even though her face is veiled, making her features unclear, which isn’t surprising. Given Xie Ling’Er’s beauty, without the veil,
it would always attract some people’s covetous glances.
Even if not afraid, there’s no need to involve oneself in such troubles.
Behind Xie Ling’Er follows an elderly man with graying hair, appearing to be over eighty.
He is Xie Ling’Er’s guardian, possessing Innate Cultivation.
Ye Liuyun was already aware of this person’s existence, thus finding it unsurprising.
With just a glance, he then shifted his attention back to Xie Ling’Er.
"Is there something you need to tell me face to face?"
"I haven’t seen you in a while, I thought you might have forgotten about me, my lord."
As she spoke, Ye Liuyun took off the veil on his face, revealing exquisite eyes filled with agility.
Seeing Ye Liuyun again, Xie Ling’Er’s heart was filled with emotion.
Truly unexpected.
She nearly forgot what cultivation level Ye Liuyun was at when she first met him?
Postnatal or Innate?
But now, he’s not only become a young Grandmaster, but also a young Grandmaster among Grandmasters.
A Grandmaster!
Even with the Xie Clan’s trading company always following the broad networking principle, having befriended many young geniuses, none have broken through to the Grandmaster Realm at such a young age like Ye Liuyun.
While there are Grandmasters among martial artists associated with the Xie Clan’s trading company, there are only a few.
Moreover, favors such as these are one-time items; once used, they’re gone, making it hard to casually use a Grandmaster’s favor.
In seeking new connections, the opportunity rarely presents itself.
Upon learning that Xie Ling’Er befriended a Grandmaster, the Xie Clan’s family began allocating considerable resources towards Xie Ling’Er.
The building managed by Xie Ling’Er, originally selling only ordinary items, has undergone significant transformation.
And not only that.
Xie Ling’Er’s influence within the Xie Clan’s trading company has also risen, otherwise aiding Sheng Lanzhi would have been impossible.
All these changes are due to the man before her.
With this in mind.
Xie Ling’Er looked at Ye Liuyun, her eyes like water.
"You haven’t truly forgotten this lady, have you? She’s always been thinking of you."
"Is that so? Well, let me touch and see, to confirm!"
Aware it’s all an act, merely an attempt to build relations due to his status as a Grandmaster.
But Ye Liuyun didn’t mind.
That’s the way of the world; besides one’s parents, there’s seldom kindness without reason.
He replied teasingly.
Facing Ye Liuyun in this manner, Xie Ling’Er wasn’t afraid, nor did she show signs of fright.
Instead, she took a few steps closer to Ye Liuyun.
"Alright, since you say so, how could this lady refuse?"
Xie Ling’Er truly wasn’t worried about being taken advantage of.
Or rather, this was exactly what Xie Ling’Er was aiming for.
If the family knows about her extraordinary relationship with a Grandmaster, she might directly integrate into the main lineage.
Of course.
Xie Ling’Er isn’t someone who would willingly degrade herself; it’s all part of the strategy. If it were a normal Grandmaster, a centenarian, Xie Ling’Er might seek rapport but not to such an extent.
Yet Ye Liuyun is different.
Simply, he’s too young.
So young yet already a Grandmaster; what of the future?
Anyone with some intellect can see that the Grandmaster status may just be the beginning for Ye Liuyun, he has real potential to break through to the legendary Land Immortal.
Even if he doesn’t.
Achieving the Grandmaster’s perfection is still extremely rare.
Not only that, in terms of appearance, Ye Liuyun is indeed handsome and exceptional.
Since marriage is inevitable.
Xie Ling’Er has long understood that with her status, expecting free love is impractical, likely needing to marry for family interests.
Such occurrences she’s seen too many times, they strike her as ordinary.
If marriage is inevitable, why not choose someone she likes, who also has a promising future.
If one day, Ye Liuyun breaks through to Land Immortal, then following him, she might suddenly become the leader of the Xie Clan’s trading company.
Never mind that Xie Ling’Er is a woman.
She harbors considerable ambition.
Only previously without opportunity, remaining subdued. Now that the opportunity is before her, naturally Xie Ling’Er won’t miss it.
Witnessing Xie Ling’Er steadily approach his master, Si Nan, who had just led the way, cleared his throat and bowed.
"Ahem!"
Knowing when to watch and when not to, this is something Si Nan understands well.
