Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Shocking News

Ye Qingchen stood in the center of the grand hall!

His gaze showed neither sadness nor joy!

The reverse scale of a dragon, touch it and you must die. Ye Qing was his reverse scale, and he would not allow anyone to touch her, let alone covet her?

For Ye Qing.

Even if it meant destroying the entire world, he wouldn't hesitate for a moment!

"Patriarch!"

Seeing Hong Ren kneeling and begging for mercy but still being killed, the members of the Hong Family cried out in pain, their eyes wide with rage.

"Kill him, avenge the Patriarch!"

Several guards shouted angrily, muscles taut, pouncing like leopards to kill!

"Die!"

Ye Qingchen's expression turned cold, and he brandished his long sword.

A cold, fierce sword light ripped through the void, the sword's edge bringing a dazzling spray of blood. In an instant, the heads of the eight guards rushing at Ye Qingchen were severed.

The large heads flew high, eyes wide open in disbelief, unable to rest in peace.

Then.

With a thud, thud, thud, they fell heavily to the ground.

"Hiss!"

The members of the Hong Family felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over them, all their fury vanished into thin air. Only now did they realize that the young man before them was not someone weak and easy to bully, but an unparalleled God of Slaughter!

"Who else?"

Ye Qingchen's gaze swept around.

"Spare us, Young Master Ye!"

Clang!

At this moment.

Some guards suddenly came to their senses, unable to contain their fear, hurriedly dropping their weapons and kowtowing for mercy.

"Spare us, Young Master Ye!" "Spare us, Young Master Ye!" "Spare us, Young Master Ye!"

One by one, the guards dropped their weapons and kowtowed for mercy, fearing that if they were late by a second, they would die a violent death!

In one night!

The master of the Hong Family perished, the high ranks were wiped out.

The Hong Family was nearly disintegrated!

If anyone had dared to say this to them in the past, they would have thought it was a joke. But now, this event happened right under their noses!

"Clatter!"

At this moment.

Ning Xuan's ivory folding fan slipped directly from his hand to the ground, but he remained unaware. He gazed deeply at the young man in the scene, when Ye Qingchen had first arrived, no one had believed in him!

But in the end, this young man had single-handedly, before everyone's eyes, trampled the entire Hong Family underfoot!

In the grand hall of the Hong Family.

Only Ye Qingchen stood there with his hands behind his back, as if he were a Divine Demon!

...

Meanwhile.

Cyan Cloud City.

Still as calm as an ancient well.

After all!

The news of Ye Qingchen's annihilation of the Hong Family was too sudden and had not yet spread.

Ye Family.

Brightly lit!

Many members of the Ye Family gathered in the hall, drinking large bowls of wine, eating large chunks of meat, and the atmosphere was incredibly lively!

At the forefront.

Sat an elder in a black gown, none other than the Ye Family's Ye Cangliu, Ye Cangliu!

At this time.

Ye Cangliu's face was glowing with joy, his smile unable to contain itself.

After ten years of hard toil, he finally seized the power of the Ye Family, officially becoming the head of the Ye Family!

"Congratulations to Ye Cangliu… Patriarch! All these years, the Ye Family had been under the control of that scoundrel Ye Qingchen, and now we have finally rid ourselves of that little bastard!"

"And not only that, but now we have the Hong Family as an ally! Soon, our Ye Family will be as brilliant as the midday sun, how delightful!"

"The Patriarch's control of the Ye Family is what we all desire!"

The family elders raised their glasses and shouted.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Ye Cangliu laughed heartily.

As someone with deep plans, he could still maintain a clear mind. But a trace of pride still shone in his eyes, now that the siblings Ye Qingchen were removed, with the Hong Family's support, could there be any rivals in this Cyan Cloud City?

At this moment, a young man sitting next to Ye Cangliu suddenly spoke:

"Third Elder, what's wrong?"

This young man was extremely handsome, but a red mark on his forehead made him look a bit sinister. His name was Ye Wushuang, the only son of Ye Cangliu!

But people respected him not for his identity, but for his strength!

He had been trained by a master

The elder called out by Ye Wushuang hurriedly got up, bowed to Ye Cangliu and Ye Wushuang, and then slowly said, "I had previously ordered Zhao Youjing and others to bury Ye Qingchen at the Chaotic Burial Mound, but they have not returned yet. Could something have gone wrong?"

"Haha, old Third, you drank too much!" someone laughed, "That little dog Ye Qingchen drank the poisoned wine and was hacked to pieces, he's beyond dead!"

Everyone in the hall nodded in agreement.

With such injuries, no one would survive, no matter who they were.

Ye Cangliu also laughed and said:

"Old Third, no need to worry! I've already dispatched someone to investigate, they should be back soon!"

Before the words had died away.

At this moment, a servant came running up quickly and whispered a few words in Ye Cangliu's ear. Ye Cangliu's face changed immediately upon hearing it, and once the messenger finished, his face was full of seriousness.

"Father, what's wrong?"

Ye Wushuang asked with furrowed brows.

Inside the hall, a quiet silence fell as everyone turned to look.

Ye Cangliu's expression changed several times, and finally he sighed and said, "Ye Qingchen is not dead, he killed Zhao Youjing in the Chaotic Burial Mound and disappeared!"

"What?"

The hall burst into an uproar.

Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief.

Ye Qingchen was still alive?

"What should we do now?"

"This is disastrous!"

Some were frightened, some were terrified, some shivered.

The Third Elder's face turned ashen, knowing full well that Ye Qingchen was reputed to be the greatest expert of the Ye Family, his strength forged through mountains of corpses and seas of blood! If he escaped, they could face endless revenge!

Even Ye Cangliu couldn't help but furrow his brow, apparently apprehensive.

"What's there to fear!"

At this moment, a burst of cold laughter rang out.

Everyone quickly turned to look.

To see Ye Wushuang full of disdain, rising slowly:

"If I had known it would be so troublesome, I should have handled it myself! A mere Ye Qingchen, not worth mentioning! Killing him would be as simple as slaughtering chickens and dogs for me!"

"Exactly!"

Ye Cangliu gathered his wits and laughed heartily:

"With my son here, what is there to fear from Ye Qingchen?"

"Report!"

Suddenly.

A shrill cry came, and a servant ran in, full of fear, stumbling:

"Patriarch, something terrible has happened!"

"Just now, Ye Qingchen appeared at the Hong Family, and in front of everyone, killed the master of the Hong Family!"

With those words,

the hall fell silent.

The many elders of the Ye Family were too petrified to breathe.

Even Ye Cangliu showed fear in his eyes!
