Chapter 1437 - 1414: Truly Thick-Skinned!
"Ha ha, who would believe that Ye Huan, a useless trash with thin and mixed bloodline like a stray dog, could surpass Princess Fufu at the age of twenty-six, become a mid-level Divine King, and possess the terrifying power to single-handedly turn the Qin Family Alliance upside down?""Apart from him taking forbidden drugs, there’s no way to explain any of this!"
"Look at your grandson-in-law, still showing the aftereffects of taking forbidden drugs!"
The Ling Family members pointed at Ye Huan, who stood outside the door with black lines all over his face, utterly speechless, and mocked him relentlessly, making Ling Luzhou fume with anger.
"Ling Luzhou, the Patriarch announced last night that tomorrow at noon, a comprehensive strength competition will be held for all Ling Family disciples. It will test various abilities including strength, agility, and bloodline purity. Didn’t you say your useless grandson isn’t useless? Then let him compete without taking any drugs and achieve a good result!"
Many people said with disdain.
In their view, Ling Luzhou would surely find various excuses to keep Ye Huan from attending the Ling Family’s competition tomorrow, so as not to expose his grandson’s true useless self and his disgracefully thin bloodline purity to the world.
Of course, they’re not looking down on disciples with low bloodline purity; many of them didn’t have high bloodline purity themselves. But they find it infuriating when someone like Ye Huan flaunts and pretends with nefarious means despite having low purity.
Ling Luzhou’s response was only a cold laugh, "Just you wait, my grandson will definitely slap your faces!"
She was met with expressions of disdain and contempt.
"Let’s go, there’s no point wasting words with these people who can’t distinguish right from wrong and only spread rumors!" Ling Luzhou stormed out of the tavern, pulling Ye Huan and Ye Bingning back to the carriage, heading towards the core area of the Ling Family.
On the way, still a bit annoyed, she looked at Ye Huan who seemed calm and asked curiously, "Xiao Huan, didn’t what they said make you angry?"
"Why should I be angry?" Ye Huan responded with a smile.
This left Ling Luzhou puzzled; wouldn’t you be angry being mocked like this?
If it were her, she’d have exploded in anger already.
"Grandma, you might not know this, but my boss has been roaming in the Western Dark World outside for many years, fighting his way through countless taunts, and eventually slapping faces and defeating brainless fools."
"When it comes to ridicule, these people’s attempts are nothing compared to the extravagant brats of major families in Huaxia outside. My boss came back to Huaxia incognito and rose to the top, it was a face-slapping journey all the way, a typical plot...wait, even a typical plot wouldn’t dare to write it this way, or the readers would be raging nonstop."
"Against this kind of ridicule and ill intentions, he’s already immune. Words can’t make these people genuinely convinced, so he doesn’t retaliate when mocked, preferring to use absolute strength later to slap those who look down on him."
Ye Bingning, holding onto Ye Huan’s arm, said with a cheerful smile, feeling a bit proud knowing his past so well.
There are billions of fans in Ye Huan’s fan club, countless beautiful fans trying to know more about him, but they have no means to learn anything.
By comparison, Ye Bingning knows way more!
Hearing this, Ling Luzhou nodded several times, feeling that Ye Bingning made a lot of sense.
Responding to ridicule with words is futile.
The best way is to slap them with reality!
"Xiao Huan, did you hear that, there’s a big family competition in the Ling Family tomorrow, make sure not to hide your strength too much. Try to get the best place to show those who look down on you your true capabilities." Ling Luzhou said.
Ye Huan smiled, "Sure."
Actually, he wasn’t very interested in this competition; he wanted to spar with strong opponents to improve his skills and see if he could learn the remaining moves of the Cyan Lotus Sword Technique.
However, from the looks of it, the Ling Family wouldn’t allow him to skip the competition.
"No, I must hurry. If your great-grandfather really compensates those families, the Ling Family will suffer a huge loss!" Ling Luzhou said anxiously, whipping the horse with force.
Startled, the steed swiftly galloped towards the center of the Ling Family.
But they were still a step too late!
When the carriage arrived at the bottom of the thousand stairs of the majestic Ling Family council hall, heads of the Qin Family Alliance, led by the Cao Family, were already leaving with eased expressions, carrying boxes and other things on one horse-drawn carriage after another.
Judging by their expressions, the Ling Family must have made significant compensations!
Ling Luzhou, with eyes wide open in anger, dragged Ye Huan and Ye Bingning out of the carriage and rushed towards the council hall!
Barging into the hall, she loudly denounced, "Dad, what are you doing! Why did you compensate those families!"
Seeing Ling Luzhou entering with a young man and woman, the Patriarch Ling Wuye, who was about to scold his unfilial daughter, was taken aback by her angry questioning!
Ling Wuye exploded immediately!
The high-ranking members of the Ling Family exploded immediately too!
"Ling Luzhou, do you still have the nerve to ask me? Look at what you’ve done! You actually fed Ye Huan forbidden drugs to give him the power to kill the Qin Family Alliance! Do you have any principles or shame left?!" Ling Wuye furiously slapped the golden chair under him, the terrifying aura and impact rippling from the spot he struck through the spacious hall!
"Indeed, little sister, you’re hopeless! Knowing your grandson is a waste, yet to help him show off, you fed him forbidden drugs. Now look, you’ve tarnished the Ling Family’s reputation, leaving us in a mess. What should we do about it? Who will take responsibility!!?"
"This is outrageous, absolutely outrageous! Ling Luzhou, our entire family indulged you, and what did we get in return? Repeated betrayal! First leaving offspring outside, tarnishing the noble Ling bloodline, now giving a wastrel forbidden drugs, leaving the Ling Family to clean up the mess!"
"Ling Luzhou, don’t you know that the rules of Endless Deep Mountains are that life and death are left to fate? With Ye Huan’s strength, daring to challenge the Qin Family Alliance, that wastrel should be prepared to die, yet you intervened! You’re truly ruining the Ling Family!"
The Dark Hall Master of the Ling Family, Ling Fufu’s father, Ling Fengyun spoke up, followed by a slew of criticism against Ling Luzhou, with eyes nearly shooting flames, wanting to tear Ling Luzhou apart!
Of course, what infuriated them most was the young man behind her!
Ye Huan!
Even after being exposed for his nefarious acts, this guy showed no remorse, thick-skinned like no other!
No doubt, being this unruffled, he must have engaged in such schemes before. Perhaps the idea to use forbidden drugs against the Qin Family Alliance was his, persuading Ling Luzhou to obtain high-quality, strength-enhancing forbidden drugs!
It seems this crooked-minded Ye Huan is the true culprit behind it all!
