“Yes, go and urge the Wen family. Tell them that if we can’t pay them within two days, we’ll leave.” Ye Chen thought for a moment. Even though he wanted to meet up with Xue’er now, he had to deal with the Wen family first.

“Why?” Zheng En was a little puzzled. Actually, he was mainly worried that if he went to tell them and the Wen family gathered all his remuneration, the Wen family would hunt them down all over the Divine Continent if they secretly left! Therefore, it was best not to remind them.

“Don’t worry, the Wen family won’t be able to afford it,” Ye Chen said confidently. Unless the Wen family sold their fixed assets, it would be impossible for them to gather Zheng En’s remuneration in a short period of time. However, it was unlikely for the Wen family to sell their assets now. This was because if he wanted to sell the ancestral property, he had to get the approval of the Patriarch. Once the Patriarch made such a request, he probably wouldn’t be able to be continue being the Patriarch anymore. Therefore, he wouldn’t do such a stupid thing!

“I’ll remind them since you are so confident! Hehe!” Zheng En still trusted Ye Chen’s judgment! With that, he left the room and went straight to look for the head of the Wen family.

Zheng En went to the main hall first, but it was empty. Then, he walked towards the main courtyard.

After arriving at the main courtyard, there were no guards at the door, so Zheng En did not stand on ceremony and walked straight in.

However, before he approached the main house, he heard the sound of an argument coming from inside. Out of curiousity of a gossip, he pricked up his ears and listened. Then, the smile on his lips deepened…

Hehe! Commander Ye had guessed correctly. The Patriarch and the Matriarch were arguing over crystals!

However, they were too focused on their argument and there was no one guarding outside, so they did not sense anyone eavesdropping.

After listening for a while, Zheng En knocked on the door and deliberately said loudly, “Is Patriarch Wen around?”

“Oh, it’s Excellency Ersha! What’s the matter?” Patriarch Wen opened the door and looked at Zheng En outside. He frowned and forced a smile.

“Ah! Patriarch Wen, what happened to your face?” Zheng En looked at the obvious scratches on Patriarch Wen’s face and suppressed his smile.

“Uh! I was accidentally scratched by a cat!” The Patriarch said awkwardly. He had opened the door too quickly and forgot about the injury on his face.

“Cat? Patriarch Wen, the scratch on your face is too big. It doesn’t look like a cat to me. Instead, it looks like a tiger’s scratch.” Zheng En observed seriously and then said very seriously.

“I didn’t see what it was. That guy slipped away too quickly. I was just guessing.” The Patriarch blushed and explained helplessly.

“Oh! Sigh! The Wen family’s defense is a little weak now! The tiger can even run away after scratching the Patriarch. Patriarch Wen, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but you have to strengthen your defense! If this tiger dares to scratch you today, it might scratch others tomorrow. Therefore, you definitely can’t let it go,” Zheng En said sincerely. Then, he sighed and patted the head of the Wen family on the shoulder to express his deep sympathy for him.

“That’s right! Excellency Ersha is right. I’ll be more careful in the future. By the way, why are you looking for me?” The Patriarch had no choice but to change the topic. Otherwise, if he let Excellency Ersha continue, the tigress in the house would probably run out and scratch him.

“Well, I’m here to tell you that there are still two days to the deadline I gave you. If you can’t gather the money you owe me in two days, then I’m leaving,” Zheng En said cooperatively.

“Excellency Ersha, can you give us a few more days?” The Patriarch negotiated. Even though he did not think that Excellency Ersha would really leave just like that, he still had to give face to the alchemist.

“I’m sorry! Patriarch Wen, I still have other matters to attend to! I spent too much time in the Wen family and have no choice but to leave,” Zheng En said with a troubled expression.

“Uh! What about the poison in my Wen family?” The head of the Wen family said with a headache.

“Patriarch Wen, if you can fork out the money you owe me, I’ll continue to refine pills for you! However, if you can’t, then don’t blame me.” Zheng En said with a smile, his attitude extremely good.

Hearing Zheng En’s words, the Patriarch could not catch his breath and almost fainted. F*ck, what was going on? It was clearly a reward, but now it had become money that was owed to him. Was there still justice?

“Patriarch Wen, that’s all I have to say. Take care!” With that, Zheng En turned around and left.

“Excellency Ersha…” The Patriarch hurriedly wanted to stop him, but Zheng En did not even turn around. Instead, he hurried on.

Before he walked out of the main courtyard, he heard a tigress roar from behind, “Let him go. I don’t believe that without him, the poison in our Wen family can’t be cured.”

After that, the Patriarch said something else, but Zheng En did not listen carefully.

After Zheng En returned to his residence, he couldn’t help but laugh until he leaned on the table…

Ye Chen was sitting in a chair in the room. When he saw Zheng En’s appearance, his face was filled with question marks. He couldn’t help but wonder if Zheng En had been provoked by something. Why was he laughing like this?

“What are you laughing at?” Yechen asked calmly when Zheng was almost done laughing.

Zheng En calmed down and then described what he had seen and heard when he went to the main house to Ye Chen. After saying that, he looked at him with anticipation. “Hehe! Funny, right? She’s a woman after all! She’s already cultivated to the level of a God, but she still likes to scratch in fights!”

“What’s so funny? The Matriarch of the Wen family is a tigress. Everyone on Divine Continent knows that,” Ye Chen said nonchalantly.

“Uh! Why didn’t I know? Didn’t you come to the Divine Continent with me? How do you know this gossip?” Zheng En’s eyes lit up as he asked curiously.

“You’ll find out in the future,” Ye Chen said, keeping him in suspense.

“Commander Ye, don’t be like this! I won’t be able to sleep at night with this knowledge.” Zheng En said with a bitter expression.

“All the better, you can keep the night watch,” Ye Chen said with very little sympathy.

“Don’t be like this! We’ve known each other for so long.” Zheng En tried to get close.
