Chapter 422: Chapter 422 Making A Friend
"Princess?" As soon as the leader of the guard saw this, he immediately asked for the princess’s opinion.
It seemed that these people also knew Xiong Batian and did not dare to confront him face to face.
The Ninth Princess also seemed to realize that Xiong Batian should not be pushed around, so she immediately changed her mind and said, "Fine! Since Batian is begging for mercy, I will let him go this time! Let’s go!"
With this, the maid beside her brought the curtains down, and then the carriage turned around and returned to the palace.
"Humph! He only threw me a glance! Am I not beautiful?" the Ninth Princess pouted. She was very displeased with the fact that Ye Liuyun did not take a good look at her.
On the way, the Ninth Princess ordered Mr. Wu, who was next to her, "Mr. Wu, help me find out the origin of that person."
"Yes!" The old man answered and disappeared from the carriage.
Seeing that the carriage had departed, Ye Liuyun said to Xiong Batian, "Put away the axes. Don’t leave any internal injuries." Xiong Batian was actually seriously injured by Qiao Wenxian’s slap, he was just suppressing it right now.
If it wasn’t for Ye Liuyun’s healing medicine, he wouldn’t even be able to stand up at this point. He sat down right away and continued to treat his wounds while thanking Ye Liuyun, "Thank you so much! If I were to be kicked by that little brat, I would have been half dead!"
"You should heal your wounds first. Stop talking." Ye Liuyun didn’t say much to him. Instead, he let him make full use of the time to heal his wounds.
Seeing that there was nothing exciting anymore, the onlookers dispersed one after another.
Only then did Wu Qingcheng and the others walk up to Ye Liuyun.
"You caused trouble again!" Wu Qingcheng complained. She speculated that since Ye Liuyun had offended the princess this time, and judging from the princess’s obstinate personality, she definitely would not let this go so easily.
"It’s fine. We’re leaving in a few days anyway." Ye Liuyun had no choice but to reassure himself. He couldn’t help himself when faced with such a situation.
Wu Qingcheng also knew his character, so she didn’t say anything more.
"Liuyun, I’m so hungry!" Lei Ming complained.
Ye Liuyun patted Lei Ming’s head and comforted her, "Wait a little longer. After he’s healed, we’ll go eat something delicious!"
After waiting for about fifteen minutes, Xiong Batian was already able to stand up. It had to be said that this guy’s physique was very good and that he was very resistant to attacks.
"Your healing medicine sure is effective!" After Xiong Batian stood up, his first sentence was to praise the efficacy of the medicine. Then, he introduced himself, "My name is Xiong Batian. Thank you for your help just now. Otherwise, I would have suffered a great loss! How should I address you, friend?"
"My name is Ye Liuyun. It’s no big deal, it’s not worth mentioning. Since you’ve already recovered from your injuries, then let’s part ways here!"
Seeing that he was able to move around on his own, Ye Liuyun was about to leave with everyone else.
"That won’t do. I have to thank you. Come on, I’ll treat you guys to a meal." Although he was treating his wounds earlier, he heard everything that Ye Liuyun and the others had said.
He didn’t treat Ye Liuyun like he was a stranger. Rather, he directly dragged Ye Liuyun and headed straight for a restaurant nearby.
Ye Liuyun found it difficult to refuse his kindness, so he agreed and brought everyone along to have a meal with him.
During the meal, Xiong Batian spoke candidly. The two of them had a good chat.
From his words, Ye Liuyun learned that Xiong Batian’s father was the chief of the praetorian of Golden Eagle City. He was quite powerful in the city, so it was no wonder that even the princess was wary of him.
"Haha, your temper is very much like mine, little guy. If I hadn’t been injured, I would definitely have fought with you. Let’s be friends. According to our ages, you should call me big brother."

"Alright then, Batian!" Ye Liuyun didn’t try to put on an act and agreed straight away.
"You guys are leaving in a few days?" Xiong Batian also knew that Ye Liuyun was about to leave this place after the auction. He couldn’t help but feel that it was a bit of a pity. "My injuries won’t recover by then! I still won’t be able to fight you!"
"Uh... it turns out that this guy is sad that he didn’t fight with me!" Ye Liuyun became speechless.
In the end, he had no choice but to say, "Perhaps we’ll have a chance to meet again in the future!"
"So be it!" Xiong Batian still felt that it was a shame. After that, he asked, "Where are you guys staying right now?"
"We’re staying at an inn. We booked a side house," Ye Liuyun said.
"Don’t stay there. Come stay at my house, I can chat more with you," Xiong Batian tried to persuade him. He got up and was about to pull Ye Liuyun away with him.
Ye Liuyun didn’t want to go. He was afraid that if he fell out with the queen in the future, it would affect the Xiong family, so he refused. Nevertheless, Xiong Batian was too enthusiastic and didn’t listen to his explanation at all. He wanted him to go no matter what.
Without any other choice, Ye Liuyun accepted his request in the end. In order to avoid any inconvenience, he stowed the others into his Interspatial Ring, leaving only Lei Ming. He transformed her into her beast form. Lei Ming settled on Ye Liuyun’s shoulder and followed Xiong Batian to the Xiong family’s house.
When the members of the Xiong family saw Xiong Batian, they greeted him warmly. And as soon as they entered the door, Ye Liuyun noticed a huge martial arts arena, in which many people practiced with each other.
"The atmosphere in your home is really lively! There are so many people practicing martial arts," Ye Liuyun complimented.
"That’s right! That’s what my father likes! Come on, I’ll bring you to meet my father!" As he spoke, he led Ye Liuyun towards a small hill in the back.
Along the way, they met a few girls. When they saw Xiong Batian, they immediately ran away in a panic.
"What heinous thing did you do? Why did those girls run away when they saw you?" Ye Liuyun asked in confusion.
"Hahaha! This shows that I’m charming. Chuner, don’t run. Come here and give me a kiss!" Xiong Batian spoke to Ye Liuyun and hollered at a beautiful woman who looked like a maid and was avoiding him.
It was fine if he didn’t shout, but as soon as he finished shouting, the maid ran faster!
There was an awkward look on Ye Liuyun’s face. It seemed that this newly acquainted big brother was not very dignified!
Halfway up the hill, there was a bamboo garden with a thatched cottage inside. As soon as Xiong Batian brought Ye Liuyun to this place, he immediately quietened down. He pushed open the wooden door silently and crept in.
"Little brat, are you in trouble again?" A thunderous sound came from inside the hut. A middle-aged man who stood tall like an iron tower rushed out of the hut, grabbed Xiong Batian by the collar, and picked him up.
"Wutian, my sworn brother is still here. Can you save me some face?" Xiong Batian couldn’t escape from his grip, so he shouted at the top of his voice.
"You want to save face? Give me back my jar of pure brew, and I’ll give you face!" The man directly settled accounts with Xiong Batian. By the looks of it, Xiong Batian had stolen a lot of wine from this man.
Even so, Xiong Batian did not forget to introduce him to Ye Liuyun. "Brother, this is my old man, Xiong Wutian! Don’t mind his bad temper!"
Ye Liuyun was a little stunned. "So this is Xiong Batian’s father. He doesn’t look like the chief of the praetorian!"
Although he thought so in his heart, he still greeted him as "Mr. Xiong" and bowed politely.
Xiong Batian also introduced him to his father, "This is my newly sworn brother, his name is Ye Liuyun. Hurry up and put me down. Don’t embarrass me like this!"
Seeing that Ye Liuyun was so courteous, Xiong Wushang had no choice but to toss Xiong Batian to a side and let him fall to the ground.
He nodded at Ye Liuyun and then continued to lecture Xiong Batian, "Look at him, he’s so well-mannered. Then, look at yourself, you only know how to swindle me every day!"
Then, he pointed to the tea table and chair beside him and said to Ye Liuyun, "Come and sit down. Don’t concern yourself with this little brat!" He strode over and sat down straight away.
