Chapter 929 Five Clans
The receptionist quickly came forward and said. “Dear esteemed guests, you might not know him. He’s a second young master of the Xie Clan. His grandfather is one of the Heavenly Sword Palace’s great elders.”
Yun Lintian waved his hand dismissively. “I understand what you want to say. However, I think your House of Prosperity needs to review your service attitude. I am paying to stay here, but you let him disturb me. Once this incident spreads out, I’m afraid no one dares to come here in the future.”
The receptionist’s face turned pale. She hurriedly said. “I’m sorry, sir. I am just a small person. I cannot afford to offend him.”
“Brother Lin, please let her go. She’s right.” Yuan Long couldn’t help saying.
Yun Lintian shook his head. “I’m not trying to make her take responsibility for this. What I am saying is that House of Prosperity has completely failed to protect its customers and employees.”
“Well said, sir.” Suddenly, a pleasant female voice resounded from the hallway, along with a charming figure appeared in everyone’s sight.
This woman had a voluptuous figure and mesmerizing facial features. She wore shoulder-revealing clothes, highlighting her plump breast.
“Madam Ye.” The receptionist hurriedly greeted the woman respectfully.
The charming woman, Ye Mei, smiled faintly. “I understand everything. You step down first.”
“Yes.” The receptionist quietly excused herself.
“Hello, dear esteemed guests. My name is Ye Mei. As a manager of this place, I am sorry for everything that happened earlier. Our House of Prosperity is willing to give everyone compensation. Everything here will be free for you during your stay.” Ye Mei bowed her head sincerely. 𝑏𝑒𝑑𝘯𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝘮
Yun Lintian nodded and said calmly. “It doesn’t matter. I hope there’s no next time.”
Ye Mei smiled charmingly and said. “Please rest assured. There won’t be next time.” She paused for a moment and continued. “However, you must be careful when you go outside, sir. That silkpants is notorious for his vengeful spirit. I believe he wouldn’t just forget it this time.”
“Since you are here, can you provide me a general situation here?” Yun Lintian didn’t care about Xie Jianyu’s revenge.
“It’s my honor.” Ye Mei began to narrate the overall situation of the Heavenly Sword Divine City.
In short, the city was governed by the Heavenly Sword Palace, and there were five major clans, namely, the Xie, Tao, Xiao, Zhao, and Sun, beneath it. Among the five, the Xie and Sun Clan were similar in power and stood at the top, only second to the Heavenly Sword Palace itself.
The relationship between them was like fire and water. Wherever the Sun Clan was, there wouldn’t be the Xie Clan.
As for the other three clans, they were relatively low-key.
“The Xie Clan itself isn’t powerful like those top clans in the Azure Ancient City. It’s mainly because of their old patriarch, Xie Jiangou. He’s currently a great elder of the Heavenly Sword Palace and holds a great authority.” Ye Mei said and looked at Yun Lintian’s group in pity. “If you wanted to participate in the upcoming event, I’m afraid it would be difficult now.”
Yuan Long waved his hand. “It doesn’t matter. We don’t think we could win it anyway.”
“Sir, I must remind you that we can only protect you while you stay in our place. I hope you understand this.” Ye Mei smiled apologetically.
Yun Lintian nodded and said. “You can go.”
“Alright. If you have anything, you can contact me directly.” Ye Mei gave a wink and turned around gracefully, leaving the room.
“Hmph! Vixen.” Shen Liqiu snorted in dissatisfaction.
Yun Lintian filled his cup and raised it up. “I have implicated everyone. I will apologize to all of you with this cup.”
Yuan Long and the others hurriedly followed. “It’s not your fault, Brother Lin. That Xie Jianyu was the one who started first. Also, it doesn’t matter as I said. We have no hope of passing the assessment to begin with.”
Yun Lintian shook his head slightly. “Do not look down on yourself, Brother Yuan. I will accompany everyone to the register hall after this. If they don’t allow you to participate in it, they are simply ruining their reputation by themselves.”
“Furthermore, they won’t dare to play tricks in front of various palace masters. The only thing you need to worry about is Xie Jianyu’s lackeys. These people can do anything in order to lick his boots.”
Yuan Long slowly nodded his head.
“Let’s eat first.” Yun Lintian beckoned, and everyone resumed their feast.

“I want to know everything about him and everyone around him.” After returning to his residence, Xie Jianyu told the old man in white.
“Young Master, I don’t think it’s a good idea to act during this period.” The white-robed old man said with a serious expression.
Xie Jianyu waved his hand annoyingly. “Who said I would move him now? Investigate first, and we will talk about it later.” His face grew terrifyingly gloomy. “It would be better if they participate in the assessment.”
The two old men glanced at each other and quietly left the room.
“My dear brother, who made you angry?” At this moment, a sixteen-year-old-looking girl walked into the room and said with a teasing smile. She had a delicate appearance, like a blooming flower. Her name was Xie Yue.
Xie Jianyu frowned slightly upon seeing his younger sister. He waved his hand dismissively. “Go away. I’m not in the mood to play with you.”
“Oh? Look like you have suffered in the opponent’s hands.” Xie Yue chuckled. “Never mind. I will ask two grandpas later.”
After saying that, she skipped out of the room and went to find the two old men under Xie Jianyu’s annoying gaze.

“So many people here.” Standing before the register hall, Jia Rong said in amazement. In front of her, roughly five thousand people could be seen going in and out of the building. The scene had exceeded her expectation.
“Let’s go.” Yun Lintian looked around briefly and squeezed the crowd into the hall, followed by Yun Qianxue and the others.
“So, it’s you who made my useless brother suffer.” At this moment, a female voice resounded from a distance, attracting everyone’s attention. The owner of the voice was no other than Xie Yue.
