"Ugh!" Ethan Ye shouted, "Brother, what are you doing?"

Shen Xiaoyan roared angrily and kicked Ethan Ye in the chest again, knocking him directly to the ground.

"Puff." Ethan Ye spat out a pool of blood from his mouth.

Seeing this, Chuntao, who was hiding in the dark far away, immediately rushed back to the Shen Mansion. She didn't dare to stop Shen Xiaoyan, so she could only go and tell Grace Shen.

"There has to be a reason to hit someone." Ethan Ye said, covering his chest which was in great pain.

Shen Xiaoyan approached, half-knelt beside Ethan Ye, patted Ethan Ye's pale face with his hand, and said in a low voice: "Dad was too lazy to do it himself, so he sent me here. Listen to me, in the eyes of outsiders, you are the son-in-law of my Xiao family; but in our Shen Mansion, you are a useless person who eats gigolo meals."

"If you know what's best for you, just sit back and wait for death. Your status is only slightly higher than those servants. If you dare to bully the people of our Shen family, I will make you live a life worse than death."

Ethan Ye finally understood that Shen Xiaoyan came for the people from the second house. The people from the first house never thought that he was one of their own, so they thought that he hit Shen Xiaojian as a slap in the face of their Shen family, and did not think that he was protecting the face of the first house.

This also shows that the three brothers Shen Yu, Shen Bian and Adam Shen have a deep relationship.

"Remember, from now on in the mansion, anyone with the surname Shen can bully you. If you dare to fight back or provoke me, I swear to God, I have a hundred ways to make you live a life worse than death." Shen Xiaoyan said with a sneer, looking a little scary.

"Stop!" Grace Shen's voice suddenly came.

Shen Xiaoyan turned around and saw that his beautiful sister was already behind him.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

"Oh, Xiao Qing, this is what father meant."

Grace Shen's face darkened, and he said helplessly: "It seems that Dad is getting old and confused."

"Sister, what are you talking about! Dad is the head of the family and he has to consider the big family." Shen Xiaoyan was a little surprised.

"Forget it. I won't argue with you. You've already hit him and said what you need to say. Let's go."

Being driven away by his own sister, Shen Xiaoyan was very unhappy. But what could he do? After all, his sister was more talented and favored than him at home.

After Shen Xiaoyan left, Grace Shen looked at Ethan Ye with a frown, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

"My brother-in-law is really ruthless." Ethan Ye raised his hand and said, "Give me a hand."

Grace Shen held his hand and pulled him up.

He held Grace Shen's hand tightly, unwilling to let go. Although Grace Shen was a martial artist, her hands were very slender and smooth.

Grace Shen shook his hand away forcefully and said, "Dad's meaning is very clear. Don't get into conflict with those people from the second and third houses again. In the end, you will be the one who suffers."

Ethan Ye wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand, and patted the dust off his body, "I understand, after all, I am just an outsider."

"By the way, I heard Chuntao say that you want two maids to serve as your Concub!nes?"

"We don't need two. Chuntao alone is enough." Ethan Ye said with a smile.

Grace Shen's face darkened, and he used his lightness skills to fly away in the direction of the Shen Mansion.

Ethan Ye walked back slowly. He remembered every word Shen Xiaoyan said just now. It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. He will return the palm and kick just now.

After separating from Ethan Ye, Grace Shen went to the Azalea Garden to find Shen Yu.

"Dad, did you really ask my eldest brother to teach Ethan Ye a lesson?"

Shen Yu was very surprised. He didn't expect that his daughter would come to him for Ethan Ye.

"This kid has been a little unruly lately."

"But it was clearly the people from the second house who made the mistake first."

"What's wrong with bullying a maid? Qing'er, your second uncle lost all his internal strength in order to save dad. That man surnamed Ye is just an outsider after all. Can we, the Shen family, be divided because of him? Your second uncle has already kicked your second aunt out of the house. If dad doesn't show some expression, it would be unacceptable." Shen Yu said earnestly.

Grace Shen sneered, then turned around and said to Shen Yu with his back to her: "Dad, I have already agreed with him that we will divorce after two years of marriage. I hope you can also tell the second and third rooms not to cause any more trouble. Only when the family is harmonious can everything be prosperous. If someone insists on causing trouble, don't blame me for being ruthless."

After that, Grace Shen left. She came to Shen Yu not only for Ethan Ye, but also because she had long been fed up with the actions of the cousins   from the second and third rooms.

If her cousins   continue to behave recklessly and ruin the family tradition, she will have to clean up the mess when she takes over the family one day.

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it was two months later.

During these two months, Ethan Ye took Qiu Sang to climb Tiangong Mountain every morning without missing a single day.

After two months of persistence, he was able to run from the Shen Mansion to the foot of Tiangong Mountain in one breath, and going up and down the mountain was no problem at all.

Qiu Sang made even faster progress. Whenever Ethan Ye reached the foot of the mountain, she had already come down.

Xing Ziru still went fishing by the stream every day, and became more and more familiar with Ethan Ye and Qiu Sang; Chun Tao, who had been protecting Ethan Ye secretly, no longer hid. When Ethan Ye went hiking, she leaned against a big tree at the foot of the mountain, waiting for Ethan Ye to come down the mountain.

After coming down from the mountain, Ethan Ye came to the stream as usual.

"Old man, where are my two maids?" he asked Xing Ziru.

"I told them that there were a lot of bayberries growing in the south, so they went there to pick them." Zixingru replied.

Ethan Ye sat down next to Xingru and drank a few sips of the sweet and cool stream water.

Xing Ziru put down the fishing rod in his hand, looked at him with a gloomy look and said: "Brother, you and Qiu Sang have been climbing the mountain for more than two months, and you are getting faster and faster every day. Especially that girl, she climbs the mountain like a horse, and she disappears in an instant."

"Old man, walking fast is running, running fast is rushing, and rushing fast is Qinggong. For people who practice martial arts, as long as their feet are fast enough, there is no difference between walking on flat ground and walking on mountain roads." Ethan Ye said with a smile.

"Brother, this is an interesting view," Xing Ziru smiled. In the past two months, he could feel Ethan Ye's internal strength improving every day, and his progress was far better than Qiu Sang's. Now he could be considered to have made some achievements.

As a martial artist himself, he didn't plan to hide anymore.

"Brother, you should be able to see that I used to be a martial artist."

"I see."

"Oh?" Xing Ziru looked curious, "When did you figure it out, brother?"

"When I first met the old man, as soon as he opened his eyes, I could feel an aura that was different from that of an ordinary person. That aura was extremely sharp, just like a sword." Ethan Ye explained. But in his heart, he was thinking, "Actually, I know who you are."

"It seems that even after hiding your identity for many years, you still haven't gotten rid of this hostility." Zixing smiled helplessly, "On the contrary, brother, when I first met you, I thought you were just an ordinary young master from a wealthy family, ordinary, but I could see some talent in Qiu Sang's maid. I didn't expect that I was wrong at that time. In just two months, your internal strength has increased dramatically. I don't know if there is a master behind you who is guiding you. If there is, I hope you can introduce him to me."

"That's really not the case." Ethan Ye shook his head affirmatively, thinking that there was one, to be sure, but he couldn't say it was him.

Xing Ziru is truly worthy of his name. He tried his best to hide it, but he was still seen through by Xing Ziru.

Fortunately, there is only one Bicycle in this world.

He really wanted to know: If he hadn't died that year and had gone to the appointment with Xing Ziru on the snowy mountain, who would have won and who would have lost in the end?

A gleam of light flashed in Xingru's eyes, "If he is really self-taught, then he will definitely have a bright future."

"Thank you for the compliment, old man," Ethan Ye said modestly, "I can only say that I was lucky and suddenly got the idea."

Hearing Chuntao and Qiusang's laughter, Zixingru patted Ethan Ye's shoulder, picked up his fishing rod and continued fishing.

"Son-in-law, come over there. Your Qiusang runs faster than me. I think it's time to ask a master to give her some guidance." Chuntao said while calling Yangmei, her words a little unclear.

"Why bother hiring a master? You can just teach her."

"See, your young master thinks so too," Chun Tao looked at Qiu Sang complacently, "Why don't you kneel down and call me Master."

"No, no! If I accept you as my master, what should I do if you tell me to go east and the young master tells me to go west?" Qiu Sang explained seriously.

"Of course I have to listen to Master." Chuntao said.

"It's just a small matter, it's just disrespecting the teacher and destroying the ancestors. Besides, if you do this kind of thing too much, you will feel satisfied." Ethan Ye said disapprovingly. These are all his true words. When Lin Wanfeng followed Master Wuyin, he really did a lot of such things.

Chuntao made an unpleasant face at Ethan Ye.

After leaving Tiangong Mountain, on the way back to Shen's Mansion, Ethan Ye saw a large family on the left side of the road ahead. The wall extended to two or three miles ahead. An idea suddenly occurred to Ethan Ye, and he pointed at the wall and said, "Qiusang, run forward along the wall of this family."

"Ah? Master, do you want me to climb up the wall and keep running forward?"

"No," Ethan Ye shook his head, "Chun Tao, go and demonstrate how to fly over the eaves and walk on the walls."

As he spoke, Ethan Ye took out a silver ingot from his arms.

Chuntao immediately took the silver, then rushed forward and jumped lightly. First, she stepped on the wall with her left foot, followed by her right foot. Then, she walked along the wall for dozens of meters before landing on the ground.
