Chapter 444: Chapter 443: Changing Dynasties

Under the announcement of Ye Zhengrong, the position of Ye Family Head passed from Ye Qingyun to Ye Hongyi.

This was declared throughout the East Desolate Ye Family.

After making the declaration, Ye Zhengrong waved his hand grandly.

Hum————

The next moment, a smear of black Mysterious Light suddenly rose from Ye Qingyun’s body, flew towards Ye Zhengrong, and fell into his hand, transforming into a black tiger seal.

"The Family Head Seal!"

Seeing the black tiger seal flying out, everyone in the Ye Family turned pale.

This black tiger seal was indeed the Family Head Seal, representing the head of the Ye Family.

Holding the seal meant being the Ye Family Head, with the authority to command the Ye Family’s Hidden Guards directly!

As the strongest force of the Ye Family, the power of the Hidden Guards was unimaginable.

And the Family Head could directly mobilize the power of the Ye Family’s Hidden Guards.

Ye Zhengrong’s thoughts stirred.

Hum————

The next moment.

Ripples appeared in the void, followed by a figure shrouded in darkness silently emerging.

Similarly, two other dark figures surfaced.

The three, all enveloped in darkness.

"Greetings, Tenth Ancestor!"

After the three appeared, they all knelt and bowed, showing utmost respect.

Ye Zhengrong gently pushed the black tiger seal in his hand, sending it flying towards Ye Hongyi’s hands.

"Look carefully, from now on Ye Hongyi is the Ye Family Head. You three will directly serve under Ye Hongyi, obeying his commands. Those who are disrespectful will be executed without mercy," Ye Zhengrong said to the three kneeling Ye Family Hidden Guards.

"Yes!"

The three spoke briefly, yet their words were powerful.

"That is..."

At the Ancestral Hall, the upper echelons of the Ye Family stared intently at those three Ye Family Hidden Guards, their eyes filled with shock.

"The three commanders of the Hidden Guards, the powerful trio who only take orders from the ancestor!"

They recognized the three of them.

These three were the strongest among the Ye Family Hidden Guards, known as the Three Commanders of the Ye Family Hidden Guards.

The power of these three commanders was even greater than that of the Family Head.

Even the Family Head and Elders couldn’t direct the three to act.

If Ye Qingyun and Ye Chengshan were the visible helmsmen of the Ye Family,

these three commanders were the invisible helmsmen of the Ye Family.

The hidden power within the Ye Family was controlled by these three.

Ye Zhengrong clearly took a resolute stance, personally helping Ye Hongyi to consolidate the position of Family Head.

Because he knew very well that if he merely pushed Ye Hongyi to the position of Family Head and then ignored everything else, others in the Ye Family would definitely make their moves.

This would make it extremely difficult for Ye Hongyi to control.

In that case, Ye Hongyi’s position as Family Head would be nominal.

But Ye Hongyi was personally named by Ye Xuan, and if they failed, it would embarrass Ye Xuan.

Ye Zhengrong was very aware of Ye Xuan’s importance to the Ye Family, but Ye Xuan chose not to take the position of Family Head himself but instead pushed Ye Hongyi for the position, thus Ye Hongyi became their link to Ye Xuan.

This connection absolutely could not be broken!

Because it concerned the future of the Ye Family!

It was no trivial matter!

For this reason, Ye Zhengrong did not hesitate to let the three commanders of the Ye Family Hidden Guards take orders from Ye Hongyi.

From then on, no one within the Ye Family would dare to disrespect Ye Hongyi.

Be it Elders or family seniors, they would all have to respect Ye Hongyi from now on!

"Ye Family Hidden Guard commanders, we’ve seen the Family Head!"

The three commanders of the Ye Family Hidden Guards all paid respects to Ye Hongyi at the same time.

Although they didn’t quite understand, they just had to follow Ye Zhengrong’s orders.

From now on, they would be Ye Hongyi’s trusted aides!

"All rise," said Ye Hongyi, rather nervously.

The change in status was too great; he couldn’t adjust to it immediately.

To the former him, these commanders of the Ye Family Hidden Guards were like legendary figures.

But now, these three commanders had become his subordinates...

Yet Ye Hongyi was very clear about the reason for all these changes.

All of this was because of Xiao Xuan!

If it weren’t for Xiao Xuan, he might already be dead.

Involuntarily, Ye Hongyi looked towards Ye Xuan.

At this moment, Ye Xuan’s lips curled into a smile, his eyes calm.

Feeling Ye Hongyi’s gaze, Ye Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Great-grandfather, do not hurry, just adapt slowly."

Upon hearing this, Ye Hongyi felt a lot more at ease.

At some point, Ye Hongyi realized that Ye Xuan’s words were becoming increasingly significant.

"Does the young master have any other instructions?" Ye Zhengrong asked as he bowed.

Ye Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "For other matters, just leave them to great-grandfather to handle."

Ye Xuan had his reasons for pushing the role of Family Head to Ye Hongyi.

One reason was that Ye Hongyi was his great-grandfather.

Another reason was due to Ye Hongyi’s solid foundation; Ye Xuan believed that after some adaptation, he would know what a Ye Family Head should do.

Regarding the affairs between the main family and branch families, Ye Xuan trusted that his great-grandfather would handle them even better!

In time, the Ye Family would naturally become stronger.

Of course, in the near term, there would definitely be a painful adjustment period.

Once they had endured through this period of adjustment, good times would come.

"Have you all not yet greeted the new Family Head?" Ye Chen slowly said, his tone cold.

Upon hearing this, all the high-ranking members of the Ye Family present in the ancestral hall, whether willing or not, stood up to pay their respects to Ye Hongyi.

"Greetings to the Family Head!"

From today onward, the Ye Family would be thoroughly undergoing a change of era.

"You may all leave," Ye Zhengrong waved his hand and said.

"Yes."

The three leaders of the Ye Family were the first to leave.

The others, also dragging their wounded bodies, gradually exited the ancestral hall.

"Great-grandfather, please start getting acquainted with it," Ye Xuan softly said to Ye Hongyi.

"Ye Chengshan, you lead the way for great-grandfather," Ye Xuan then said to Ye Chengshan, who was still kneeling on the ground.

"Yes, Master!" Ye Chengshan respectfully accepted the command.

This scene, however, caused all ten ancestors of the Ye Family to shrink their pupils.

Ye Chengshan was actually addressing Ye Xuan as master?!

"A Curse Seal was planted in the Soul Sea, such a forceful method..." Ye Zhengrong instantly sensed the enormity of it and couldn’t help but inwardly take a sharp breath.

As a Great Elder of the Ye Family, Ye Chengshan’s strength was second only to the former Family Head Ye Qingyun. Such a being was almost never under anyone’s control with a Curse Seal.

Because if anyone intended to plant a Curse Seal, Ye Chengshan would react instantly and take countermeasures.

Forcing a Curse Seal into the Soul Sea of a powerful cultivator was definitely an exceedingly difficult task.

But clearly, Ye Xuan had managed to do it.

And he did it perfectly; Ye Chengshan’s soul was not damaged at all!

That was the most terrifying part!

Ye Chengshan left with Ye Hongyi.

In the blink of an eye, only Ye Xuan and the ten ancestors of the Ye Family remained in the ancestral hall.

Hum————

When everyone had left, Baikui, the leader of the nine ancestors, took action himself and established a nine-layer barrier.

After completing this, Baikui nodded slightly to Ye Zhengrong.

Ye Zhengrong’s gaze fell on Ye Xuan, his eyes filled with fervor as he bowed and said, "Young Master, now that there are no outsiders, may I ask what will of the ancestors was left behind?"

Baikui and the other ancestors also watched Ye Xuan intently.

They were all aware of that ancestral decree.

They knew even better that once someone triggered an Anomaly, it would inevitably communicate with the ancestor Demon Emperor Bugu.

This was also something they valued highly.

Ye Xuan glanced at Ye Zhengrong and said calmly, "There isn’t any damn will."

In fact, his foster son Ye Bugu had left behind a remnant soul, merely to meet him once; there was no will at all.

And that so-called Anomaly was merely something Ye Bugu had left behind to welcome Ye Xuan’s arrival.

Ye Bugu hadn’t mentioned anything specific.

And regarding Ye Xuan’s identity, Ye Bugu did not mention it at all.

The reason the ten ancestors of the Ye Family respected Ye Xuan so much was more because they followed the ancestral decree.

They believed that Ye Xuan was the key figure who could lead the Ye Family to unparalleled glory.

They even thought that Ye Xuan had received the inheritance of the ancestor Demon Emperor Bugu.

"The ancestor meant for the young master not to reveal it, right? We understand," Baikui said, his expression showing a ’I understand you’ look.

"You understand nothing," Ye Xuan looked at Baikui irritably and spoke slowly, "Although I don’t know what kind of ancestral decree he left for you, from your expressions, it is clear that you want to borrow my power to elevate the Ye Family to the next level."

"Forget about that. I will not be bound by the Ye Family, nor will I do anything for the Ye Family."

"Of course, now that my great-grandfather has taken the position of Family Head, I won’t let the Ye Family suffer either."

"Bring out the Blood Night Emperor Technique, I’ll help you refine it."

Ye Xuan stated this outright.

"Eh!?"

Ye Xuan’s words caused their expressions to fluctuate, and they were dazed until Ye Xuan mentioned the last part.

"Refine the Blood Night Emperor Technique!?"
