Chapter 1436 - 1413: My Grandson Is a Genius!
Very soon, after finishing the call, Ye Haoming revealed a cruel smile: "Just wait, ’Above’ told me, there’s going to be a great show!"Hearing this, the elders of the Six Doors Sect all snickered in unison, each showing a "I understand" expression.
At this moment, their mood was at its peak.
In the daytime, when threatened by Ye Huan’s ultimatum, they thought they were certainly doomed.
Who knew the situation would change so quickly, catching them off guard!
"Think carefully, after Ye Huan’s death, who should we use Ye Bingning to curry favor with. In any case, we must send her to a man she doesn’t like, making her suffer all kinds of abuse and amidst regret and despair, forcibly obtain benefits for us."
"In addition, I will arrange for us to get tickets to the Great Competition of the Hundred Clans. By then, we’ll go together and witness Ye Huan being beaten into a state of utter disgrace like a dead dog!"
"Ha ha, asking us to write a confession? I’m not only refusing, but I also intend to eliminate the problem completely, and cripple Ye Bingning as well!"
Ye Haoming was shockingly arrogant, looking like he owned the world, as if his face might as well be emblazoned with "Supreme Above and Below" in prominent letters.
"Understood!"
The elders of the Six Doors Sect were now completely in awe of Ye Haoming, feeling that Ye Haoming was doing an excellent job as the Sect Leader!
...
After an entire night and the following day of traveling, the carriage carrying Ye Huan and his group finally traversed from the seventh-ring area of the mountains to the central zone of the Endless Deep Mountains—the first-ring Ling Family area!
Unlike the seventh-ring areas with mixed towns like Wuya Town or Lao Yu Town, the central area only had Ling Family villages, built from brick and stone by Ling Family descendants.
For ten thousand years, the Ling Family has thrived here, and now the total number of direct and collateral line descendants exceeds over eighty thousand.
About a thousand core descendants reside in the central palace complex, while the rest live around the palace-like Council Hall of the Ling Family, spread across six medium-sized towns in all directions.
At night, the Ling Family’s small towns are as bustling and noisy as those in Wuya Town, with people drinking and boasting in taverns, shaving heads and polishing shoes on the streets, and peddling food—everything is available.
"The Ling Family is not only the most powerful family in the Endless Deep Mountains, but also the largest. Besides the direct lineage, there are three collateral lines, an expansive concept, with 89,457 registered clan members of whom some have reached pinnacle martial arts talent, while others have very poor or even no talent at all."
"However, even those with poor martial arts talent still have the right to live in the central area of the mountains; if they want to feel fulfilled, they have to fend for themselves as the clan won’t support them."
"Like these shoemakers or sellers of candied fruits in the towns, they’re actually all surnamed Ling, all Ling Family descendants. The Ling Family is very united, and the talented descendants often visit and take care of their businesses, never looking down on them just because of their lack of martial arts talent."
On the carriage, Ling Luzhou chuckled a couple of times, explaining the situation of the Ling Family in detail to Ye Huan, then parked the carriage and got off, "Let’s eat something, then continue on our way."
Ye Huan nodded, waking up the still-sleeping Ye Bingning with a nudge, who had drool at the corner of her mouth, and disembarked with her slightly pink face.
During this time, he was really quite shocked internally; a family with over 80,000 people—indeed, the Ling Family was quite large.
Ling Luzhou led Ye Huan and Ye Bingning towards a tavern.
But after only a few steps, she stopped, a severe chill crossing her pretty face!
"Alas, that kid called Ye Huan is really a jinx! And Ling Luzhou, she’s fooling around outside and giving birth to several illegitimates, tarnishing the family’s bloodline. It’s bad enough that the family has no dragon-god-level pillar character this generation, and now she openly declares Ye Huan as her descendant—she’s just trying to bring trouble to the Ling Family, isn’t she?"
"Yeah, things are heating up fast. I’ve heard news that various families plan to use Ye Huan as a breakthrough point in the Great Competition of the Hundred Clans, letting our Ling Family taste its first defeat! Our Ling Family’s undefeated stature is about to be shattered, and it’s all because of that despicable Ye Huan!"
"What a shameless creature! Damn, if he were to return to the Ling Family in a regular way, or even performs poorly in the competition and becomes a breakthrough point for others, that’s one thing. But this weak-blooded bastard colluded with Ling Luzhou to exaggerate his strength for more resources in the family by taking forbidden drugs, and worst of all, got caught! It’s a complete disgrace to our Ling Family!"
"I’m so infuriated by this bastard. If I run into him, I’ll definitely give him a few slaps! Because of him alone, our Ling Family’s reputation has endured an extremely severe blow! Plus, have you heard, the clan patriarchs from the Qin Family Alliance have already come here to demand justice!"
"Ah, at noon, the convoy formed by those families majestically bypassed several towns on their way to the Council Hall—who wouldn’t know about it? My cousin is a core disciple; she said those families, upon arriving, directly accused Ling Luzhou of giving Ye Huan forbidden drugs and listed numerous crimes of Ye Huan brutally killing their allied disciples after taking the forbidden drugs! They even demanded compensation from our family!"
"The always gentle patriarch, after learning about these events, was so furious his nose went crooked! I think this time if Ling Luzhou can’t give the family a satisfactory explanation, she’s finished! Just like that despicable kid Ye Huan who only knows how to play dirty tricks, he’s finished too!"
The Ling Family disciples in the tavern were gathered, discussing the series of events concerning Ye Huan and Wuya Peak that occurred yesterday and today, all with looks of anger towards Ye Huan.
Integrity is the Ling Family disciples’ foremost value!
They despise those who resort to devious means!
But these people, who easily believe rumors, had no inkling that Ye Huan did not rely on forbidden drugs to gain the strength to overthrow the Qin Family Alliance, nor did they know that it was originally the Qin Family Alliance who provoked him, leading to their ultimate downfall!
"That’s enough, stop spreading rumors here!" Ling Luzhou, being a straightforward person, couldn’t hold back her anger and charged into the tavern shouting, shaking everyone inside to their core.
They turned their eyes to Ling Luzhou, quickly composed themselves, and became even more indignant, banging their cups on the tables: "Ling Luzhou, we usually respect you, but now, we simply can’t respect you anymore. Do you know what kind of negative news you and your grandson have brought to the Ling Family? Your useless grandson..."
Ling Luzhou interrupted them unceremoniously, defending Ye Huan: "My grandson Ye Huan is a genius, not the kind of person whose terrifying strength comes from taking some kind of forbidden drugs I’ve given him!"
