The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 434 - 433: Rotten, come over...

Chapter 434: Chapter 433: Rotten, come over...

"Ling Jue, I came to see Grandfather because..."

Before Ye Chengshan could finish his sentence, he caught sight of the scene in the grand hall and instantly, his pupils constricted, his aged face immediately taking on a dark and gloomy expression.

"What is going on!?"

Ye Chengshan demanded sternly.

"Grandfather!" Ye Lingjue exclaimed with great joy upon seeing Ye Chengshan arrive and hurriedly reported the recent events to him as quickly as he could.

Ye Chengshan listened in silence, his gaze sweeping continuously over Ye Xuan and Ye Hongyi, his expression changing unpredictably.

Ye Hongyi stood beside Ye Xuan, as if facing a formidable enemy, with cold sweat beading on his forehead.

This Ye Chengshan was the Great Elder of the Ye Family Main House, his status incredibly high, second only to the Family Head, and his strength was also extremely terrifying.

In this world, any position of power was linked with one’s strength.

Ye Chengshan’s attainment of the position of Great Elder was naturally linked to his own power.

Now that Ye Chengshan had arrived, it would be odd if Ye Hongyi were not panicking.

In Ye Chengshan’s hands lay the power of life and death, being a true heavy-hitter, whose mere stomp could bring about the annihilation of the Southern Domain.

"Do you want the old man to protect you?" After listening, Ye Chengshan’s gaze fell on Ye Xuan as he spoke indifferently.

"Great Elder, your servant wishes to recommend young Xuan to you," Ye Hongyi said quickly.

Ye Chengshan gave Ye Hongyi a sidelong glance and spoke faintly, "A grandchild as spoiled and willful as yours is not something the old man dares to take on."

Ye Lingjue, standing to the side, said with a dark look, "Grandfather, this Ye Xuan has killed so many of my people and even disabled that guy Ye Lingfeng, he’s nothing but an evil servant, and must not be spared!"

"Great Elder!" Ye Hongyi’s expression changed slightly as he intensely focused on Ye Chengshan.

Ye Chengshan raised his hand to signal Ye Lingjue to speak no further and looked at Ye Xuan, speaking flatly, "Do you have anything to say?"

From Ye Lingjue’s description, this Ye Xuan possessed some sort of strange power and even had the Nine Cave Heaven, which was already comparable to a few of the monstrous geniuses of the Ye Family.

If there really was an opportunity, subduing him might not be a bad idea.

However, before that, Ye Chengshan wanted to give Ye Xuan a good warning.

After all, the vast Ye Family had many rules.

If those rules were not abided by, the outcome would be dire!

Ye Lingjue and Ye Hongyi also turned their eyes towards Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan, with his hands stuck in his pockets, remained calm, giving Ye Chengshan a glance and said lightly, "What I want to say is... your Ye Family’s rules are too lousy."

As soon as these words fell,

Ye Lingjue was astounded. What was this guy doing, saying that the Ye Family’s rules were lousy?!

Was he looking down on the Ye Family?!

Suddenly, Ye Lingjue’s face turned dark and somber, "Grandfather, you see what this guy is, he actually dares to say our Ye Family’s rules are lousy!"

Ye Hongyi also did not expect that Ye Xuan would speak so bluntly and was trembling with fear, though he dared not say anything.

Since he was standing here, he had made up his mind to stand or fall with Ye Xuan.

Ye Chengshan’s eyes were fixed on Ye Xuan, as if trying to decipher something from this black-robed youth.

Ye Chengshan started to laugh, saying, "It’s been many years since anyone dared to say such things in front of the old man, you’ve got guts."

"I would like to hear, just how are the Ye Family’s rules lousy?"

"Where are they lousy?"

"If you can give a reasonable explanation, the old man might consider sparing you."

Ye Chengshan didn’t show any anger.

Because an existence of his level wouldn’t be angered by a mere statement from Ye Xuan.

Otherwise, wouldn’t he have been long dead from rage?

"Grandfather!" Ye Lingjue was taken aback to hear Ye Chengshan’s words.

Ye Hongyi was also stunned, as he did not expect Ye Chengshan to actually give Ye Xuan a chance.

Ye Xuan gave Ye Chengshan a sidelong glance, took his hand out of his pocket, and with a slight flick of his fingers,

a chair on the side slid over, appearing behind Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan sat down unhurriedly, looking at Ye Chengshan and said calmly, "You’re not too bad."

"Huh?!"

Ye Xuan’s actions stunned Ye Lingjue.

Was this guy really that bold?

Facing his grandfather’s questioning, he remained so carefree and even took a seat before speaking, a bit too arrogant!

Just his audacity alone was astonishing.

You have to know, his grandfather Ye Chengshan was the Great Elder of the Ye Family, second only to the Family Head, highly respected and powerful, a truly formidable figure.

Such a person could bring heaven and earth to collapse with just a stomp.

And yet...

"You’re not too bad"?!

What did that mean?!

Ye Lingjue watched Ye Xuan with an expression that flickered between light and dark.

This guy was simply courting death!

Too arrogant!

Ye Hongyi, too, was terrified on the side.

Young Xuan’s boldness was just too great...

It made Ye Hongyi feel uneasy, secretly on alert, fearing that Ye Chengshan might take some drastic action.

Although Ye Xuan had previously annihilated Ye Jinrong and the others in mere seconds.

But these characters were nothing more than minor servants within the Ye Family.

In the presence of an existence like Ye Chengshan, even Ye Hongyi felt an oppressive sensation that he couldn’t breathe.

That invisible coercive pressure, without fail, showcased Ye Chengshan’s might!

Ye Chengshan looked down at Ye Xuan, who was sitting in the center of the great hall, with considerable surprise in his heart.

Not to mention anything else, just Ye Xuan’s composure alone made him somewhat astonished.

By comparison, Ye Lingjue next to him seemed much weaker.

Ye Chengshan watched Ye Xuan, waiting for what was to come.

Ye Xuan sat on the chair and spoke at a measured pace, "The rules of the Ye Family are rotten because you people in power are too corrupt."

"I think you’re seeking death!" Fury erupted in Ye Lingjue’s eyes.

This Ye Xuan actually dared to insult his grandfather!?

Yet Ye Chengshan frowned as he looked at Ye Xuan and spoke slowly, "Is that all?"

He had thought that with Ye Xuan’s stance, something significant was going to be revealed, but was it just this?

"Just this," Ye Xuan said indifferently.

Feeling quite disappointed and finding it uninteresting, Ye Chengshan spoke coldly, "Then what kind of outcome do you want?"

"Naturally, to clean up the Ye Family," Ye Xuan articulated slowly and clearly.

"Hahahaha————"

Ye Lingjue immediately burst into laughter, pointed at Ye Xuan, and spoke with a face full of mockery, "Although I don’t know how you managed to kill Ye Jinrong and the others, do you really think by killing a Ye Jinrong you’ve become invincible?"

"People like him are a dime a dozen in our Ye Family."

"I think you’re not fully awake yet, just here to be beaten!"

Ye Hongyi, who was beside Ye Xuan, was on edge, with cold sweat already forming on his forehead.

He could feel that Ye Chengshan’s patience was running out.

Next, he was probably going to take action!

Ye Chengshan squinted at Ye Xuan, a hint of mockery rising in his eyes as he spoke slowly, "I thought you might be someone of note, but now I see, that’s all there is to you."

"Leave on your own."

Ye Chengshan waved his hand.

He didn’t even bother to take action.

It seemed that to him, taking action against Ye Xuan would sully his own hands!

But in reality, by telling Ye Xuan and Ye Hongyi to leave, Ye Chengshan was sentencing them to death.

Because when they left, Ye Chengshan would inevitably spread the word about Ye Lingfeng and Ye Lingfei.

At that time.

The entire Ye Family would not spare Ye Hongyi and Ye Xuan!

"Leaving is out of the question," Ye Xuan said lightly with a smile, his eyes as calm as a still ancient well as he looked towards Ye Chengshan.

Ye Chengshan also looked at Ye Xuan.

It was as if time had stopped in that moment.

At that moment, a look of terror crept onto Ye Chengshan’s aged face, as if he had seen some horrifying anomaly or something beyond his comprehension.

"Come here..."

Ye Xuan’s voice was somewhat hoarse, yet magnetic.

"Come here? What for?" Ye Lingjue asked, feeling utterly confused and sneering.

Then, under the astonished gaze of Ye Lingjue, his own grandfather, Ye Chengshan, actually started to walk slowly toward Ye Xuan.

He approached Ye Xuan.

"Grandfather?!"

Ye Lingjue was somewhat dumbfounded.

What was happening?

As Ye Chengshan approached, Ye Hongyi’s aura also began to fluctuate, reaching a peak of tension.

"Great Elder, something seems off..."

Ye Hongyi closely watched Ye Chengshan, only to find that Ye Chengshan’s expression was not quite right.

Why did it seem that the Great Elder’s complexion was very pale, and he was wearing a look of fear as if he had seen some unknown entity?

Ye Xuan glanced sideways at Ye Lingjue, his gaze landing on Ye Chengshan’s Divine Mountain, his eyes suddenly fierce as he shouted sharply:

"Kneel!"

The two words fell like thunder, resonating instantaneously.

Those words seemed to contain the most terrifying power in the world.

As if thunder had burst from a tongue!

Boom——————

In that moment, Ye Chengshan knelt in response!

He knelt directly in front of Ye Xuan.

Not only that, but his forehead even touched the ground.

Trembling violently.

"Old servant... greets the Master!"

(ps: The old problem has flared up again, let’s call it a day for now, don’t wait up everyone...)
