NOVEL NEXT Chapter 15
The Return of the King, Still As Elegant!
Dark clouds covered the sun and raindrops gradually landed everywhere in Tianyuan City.
There were not many people on the streets at the moment.
The only lively place was the Ye Family, one of the four families because Ye Qiubai had returned.
In the main hall.
Ye Qing sat at the head of the table, followed by Grand Elder Ye Ling and Ye Yan who stood behind him.
However, at this moment, Ye Yan’s expression was extremely strange. He looked at Ye Qiubai with fear in his eyes.
Ye Ling, who was sitting in his seat, also felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
Clearly, Ye Yan had already told his father about Ye Qiubai.
Ye Qiubai came in front of Ye Qing and knelt down. “Father, I’m back.”
Seeing this, Ye Qing sighed and walked over to help Ye Qiubai up. He whispered, “Qiubai, you shouldn’t have come back.”
Ye Qiubai smiled and said, “It’s fine, Father. Moreover, if I don’t come back to help you, won’t your position of the family head be taken by someone?”
Ye Qiubai spoke at full volume, so Ye Ling naturally heard it.
Ye Ling’s heart trembled, and he said with a trembling voice, “Qiubai, how could someone seize the position of Patriarch? You must have heard wrongly, right?”
Ye Yan chimed in, “That’s right, cousin. How could anyone do such a thing? Don’t listen to the rumors.”
Hearing this, Ye Qing was stunned.
Recently, Ye Ling had relied on his son who entered the Hidden Dao Academy and was taken in as a disciple by an elder to obtain the support of most of the elders in the family.
Even the patriarch vaguely agreed to this matter.
Ye Qing could not support himself alone. He was almost unable to withstand the pressure these days.
Logically speaking, Ye Ling should have pursued the victory.
Why did he change his mind at this moment?
He even seemed to be trying to curry favor?
Ye Qiubai knew the reason and didn’t even look at the father and son.
His father’s position as the family head would not be taken away now that he was back after all.
However, even so, the old and new grudges had to be resolved now.
Ye Qiubai glanced at Ye Yan behind him.
Those sword-like eyes pierced into Ye Yan’s heart like thousands of swords piercing through his heart!
It made one’s heart tremble!
Ye Yan knew that Ye Qiubai already knew about the Academy Competition!
But just as Ye Qiubai was about to attack, the sound of horse hooves came from outside the door!
“Chou Siwu from the Chou Family, is here to visit Ye Qiubai!”
The person in the lead was Chou Siwu, who was dressed in a blood-red robe.
Chou Siwu was now staring at Ye Qiubai with a sinister smile.
His eyes were filled with hatred!
Immediately after, another group of people walked in.
“Brother Ye Qing, how have you been?”
The Jiang family’s Jiang Tianhan had arrived.
Ye Qiubai also looked over, but he didn’t see Jiang Chan.
Now, the little girl in his heart had completely dissipated.
In her place was Jiang Chan, his enemy from the Jiang family.
He just didn’t know if Jiang Tianhan was involved…
Ye Qing’s expression changed. How could he not know why these people were here?
However, he still cupped his fists and said, “May I know why you are here this time?”
Chou Siwu grinned. “I want to see if Brother Qiubai’s strength has improved. We often sparred together in the past after all.”
Ye Qing’s heart sank.
Chou Siwu was originally the number one prodigy in Tianyuan City, but he was pressed to the ground by Ye Qiubai.
During this period, the two sides had several irreconcilable grudges. He naturally wanted to take revenge now that Ye Qiubai had lost his cultivation!
Ye Qing’s face darkened. “Chou Siwu, this is the Ye family. It’s not your place to be impudent.”
Chou Siwu laughed when he heard this, “Ye Qing, how much power do you have in the Ye family now? The position of the family head will be given up sooner or later. How can you protect Ye Qiubai?”
Then, he looked at Ye Ling and smiled sinisterly. “If you don’t hand Ye Qiubai over, I guarantee that my enemies will take revenge on the Ye family in the future.
“From now on, there will be no place for the Ye Family in Tianyuan City!”
“You!”
Ye Qing understood that even though they were all from the four families, ever since Ye Qiubai lost all his talent, the Ye family’s status in Tianyuan City had plummeted.
All the factions had chosen to join another faction, causing the Ye Family’s strength to be inferior.
Just as Ye Qing was about to continue, Ye Qiubai bypassed Ye Qing and arrived in front of Chou Siwu.
“Don’t you want revenge? I’m right here. Make your move.”
Chou Siwu was stunned at this scene.
Ye Qing hurriedly shouted, “Qiubai, don’t be rash!”
Jiang Tianhan also said with a dark expression, “As long as there’s life, there’s hope. Ye Qiubai, retreat!”
Ye Qiubai couldn’t help but be stunned hearing Jiang Tianhan’s advice.
It seemed that Jiang Tianhan did not want him to die. Then the previous incident probably had nothing to do with him.
Chou Siwu laughed sinisterly. “I won’t hold back since you’re courting death.”
With that, Chou Siwu took out a long saber and shot towards Ye Qiubai!
Chou Siwu had already broken through to the Golden Core Pill Realm and reached the Purple Mansion Realm.
In everyone’s hearts, Ye Qiubai, who had lost his cultivation, was definitely not his match!
Ye Qing gritted his teeth and shot towards Ye Qiubai, but he was blocked by an old man.
“Patriarch Ye, please stay here and watch.”
Ye Qing’s expression was ugly. The person in front of him used to be a consecrator of the Ye Family, but now, he had defected to his enemy.
Chou Siwu raised his long saber and slashed at Ye Qiubai’s head!
“Ye Qiubai! I’ll use your life to settle the hatred of the past!”
Ye Qiubai also took out his wooden sword in front of everyone.
He moved his feet slightly and stabbed out with the wooden sword in his hand.
Just like that, a simple sword strike.
The long saber collided with the wooden sword!
The wooden sword did not shatter as everyone had expected!
Ye Qiubai didn’t die under Chou Siwu’s saber!
This scene stunned everyone.
Ye Qiubai’s wooden sword actually pierced through the long saber and into Chou Siwu’s neck!
Blood gushed out!
“How… how is this possible?!”
Chou Siwu’s expression was ferocious. He put down his long saber and covered his neck with both hands, staring fixedly at Ye Qiubai, who was as calm as water.
“Your… your strength… has recovered?”
Ye Qiubai didn’t answer. He pulled out his sword. There was no blood on the wooden sword.
Under everyone’s terrified gazes, Chou Siwu fell into a pool of blood and stopped breathing.
Ye Qing was stunned.
Jiang Tianhan was stunned.
Ye Ling, who had never seen Ye Qiubai’s strength, was also stunned.
Ye Yan was also terrified.
In just two days, Ye Qiubai broke through to the Purple Mansion Realm!
What kind of cultivation speed was this!
“Qiubai… you?”
Ye Qiubai put away his wooden sword and turned to look at Ye Qing. He smiled and said, “Father, my strength has recovered.”
The crowd watching from the periphery immediately dispersed to spread the news!
The former prodigy returned today as a King, as elegant as ever!
