Chapter 521 - 144: A Common Enemy, Allies?
"Take them away!"
Si Nan waved his hand directly.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards behind him came forward together and took away the registrar and the others.
During the process, these people were still crying and begging for mercy, but unfortunately, it was useless!
...
Night!
Ye Liuyun and his group didn’t leave Lishui City, and were still staying at the same inn as before.
After all.
The issues in Lishui City hadn’t been completely solved yet, so even if they were to leave, it definitely wasn’t the time.
Taking advantage of the moment, Ye Liuyun glanced at his character panel, which he hadn’t opened for a long while!
"Talent Entry System!

"Water Spirit Body (Gold): Born with the ability to control water sources, able to breathe freely underwater, and cultivation speed in water is ten times that of ordinary people!"
The biggest gain this time.
Was definitely this golden quality Water Spirit Body talent.
Originally it was just a purple quality Water Sense, but because those water bandits had a ton of talent entries related to diving and such.
And this type of talent had high compatibility with Water Sense talents.
Even though the quality was quite ordinary, the cumulative amount added up.
It still leveled up the purple Water Sense talent.
Transforming it into the current Water Spirit Body talent!
"So my cultivation speed in water will be even faster?"
Another physique-type talent entry, and these talents almost always have great effects. Ye Liuyun was obviously satisfied with talents like this.
He nodded slightly.
And closed the character panel, glancing sideways at the location of the room door.
"Since you’re already here, why not just come in directly?"
While he opened the character panel, Ye Liuyun already sensed the presence outside the door.
It’s just, since the person didn’t intend to barge in, Ye Liuyun wasn’t in a rush to say anything, choosing to check his panel first.
After reading it, only then did he remind the other party with a line.
...
His words finished.
The person outside the door was silent for a while before pushing open the door and coming inside.
Sure enough.
Just as Ye Liuyun expected, the visitor was Fu Zhengqing, whom he’d fought with in the daytime.
"Prime Minister, coming here at this hour—don’t tell me you’re still upset about earlier, so you want to make trouble for me?"
Seeing Fu Zhengqing’s silent expression,
Ye Liuyun seemed very laid-back.
After teasing him with a joke, Ye Liuyun poured himself a cup of tea, as though he wasn’t worried at all that Fu Zhengqing was here to cause trouble.
...
Fu Zhengqing didn’t reply, but went straight to the seat in front of Ye Liuyun and sat down.
Everyone here was shrewd.
Fu Zhengqing could tell Ye Liuyun had figured something out, but he didn’t intend to explain.
After a brief silence, he spoke directly.
"We shouldn’t be opponents!"
It was clear: Fu Zhengqing really didn’t want to go against Ye Liuyun, especially after learning about his talents. To reach Grandmaster at such an age—who knows what he’d become next?
If such a person can’t be eliminated in time, then if you can’t be friends, you should by no means become enemies.
What’s more,
Fu Zhengqing himself didn’t think he and Ye Liuyun should be enemies.
They actually had a common enemy.
Ye Liuyun had no intention of interrupting.
He quietly waited for Fu Zhengqing to continue, and his composure made Fu Zhengqing a little more at ease. At least they could talk.
His only worry was Ye Liuyun’s youth making him too hotheaded to listen to a word.
That would really make things difficult.
"You must have heard: I broke into the Grandmaster realm years ago, but after all this time, I’m still only at Early-stage Grandmaster. If it was a talent problem, then I would never have reached Grandmaster in the first place!"
If it really was a talent issue.
I wouldn’t even be able to step into Grandmaster at all.
How could I get stuck at one realm for so long?
At this point,
Fu Zhengqing’s expression clearly held a bit of unwillingness; his fists clenched unconsciously, as if he’d thought of something.
"Is it because of Yan Fuhai?"
Ye Liuyun didn’t feign ignorance.
And simply asked the obvious question.
"That’s right!"
Fu Zhengqing wasn’t surprised Ye Liuyun could guess it.
Instead, he answered without hesitation, nodding firmly.
"Yan Fuhai is a cautious and paranoid man, likes to keep everything under his control, and absolutely won’t tolerate anything that falls outside his predictions. Governor Ye, I’m sure you know that your talents will definitely attract Yan Fuhai’s attention, right?"
