Chapter 51 Ye Xingchen
Ye Tianyi nodded and said, "It is highly likely that this King Liang is personally in charge. By doing this, he can quickly accumulate prestige among the people. Now, the King Liang of Great Qin can be said to be a household name. Even three-year-old children know about the King Liang's deeds. This King Liang has big ambitions!"
Upon hearing Ye Tianyi's words, all the Ye family executives below fell silent.
"Clan leader, do we really want to get involved in this? The Liang King's strength should not be underestimated!"
An elder below spoke up with concern.
Ye Tianyi frowned and said firmly, "We have to get involved in this!"
"The Fourth Prince, Ying Heng, carries half of the Ye family's blood. If we help him ascend the throne, we can secretly control the Great Qin Dynasty and rapidly enhance our family's strength by leveraging its resources..."
"While it won't restore the Ye family to its full strength, it can at least restore one-tenth or one-twelfth..."
The Ye family is the least established of the three major families in the Qin Dynasty. Thousands of years ago, the Ye family's ancestors came to the Qin Dynasty...
At that time, the Ye family was being hunted down by their enemies, and the family's powerful members suffered heavy casualties. After arriving in the Great Qin, only a few hundred members remained, and the strongest member of the family was only a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
Seeing that the Ye family had some strength, the Qin Emperor allowed them to stay in the Qin Dynasty and gave them a territory to live and thrive.
After thousands of years of development, coupled with their family's accumulated wealth, they have become the most powerful of the three great families of the Qin Dynasty...
It possesses dozens of Nascent Soul experts, hundreds of Golden Core cultivators, and hundreds of thousands of clansmen...
However, it's still a long way from the family's peak!
According to the family's historical records, the Ye family at that time had experts at the Refinement Realm and dozens of experts at the Nascent Soul Realm.
Every time they see the family's glorious period recorded in the family history, every member of the Ye family feels excited and takes it as their lifelong goal to expand the family.
However, expanding one's family's power is no easy feat. The Qin Dynasty has a limited amount of resources, but countless powerful factions exist, like fish crossing a river. Most of these resources are controlled by the royal family, with only a small portion being divided among these powerful factions...
If they want more resources, they can only serve the royal family, but that's not what the Ye family wants.
They want the royal family's resources, but they don't want to work for the royal family.
This is also why they chose to support the current Qin Emperor, help him ascend to the throne, and even marry their clan chief's sister to him.
The purpose was to give birth to a royal with the bloodline of the Ye family, support him to the throne of Qin, secretly control the entire Qin Dynasty, and develop the Ye family with the help of Qin's resources and fortune.
Upon hearing Ye Tianyi's words, the faces of the Ye family members all lit up with fervent expressions.
Once they gained control of the Qin Dynasty, they would have taken the first step toward reviving their family.
"We are willing to fully support the clan leader and dedicate ourselves to the revival of the Ye family until our dying breath!"
The elders and deacons all shouted loudly with firm expressions.
Ye Tianyi looked down with a satisfied expression.
Even the Ye family elder, who had been resting with his eyes closed, couldn't help but open his eyes a crack and nod slightly.
The Ye family's top brass were all caught up in the dream of reviving the family, completely forgetting that when they first came to the Great Qin, it was the Great Qin that gave them a place to live. If it weren't for the Great Qin, the Ye family would probably have been wiped out thousands of years ago. Where would the three great families of the Great Qin be today?
All I can say is that the Ye family is an ungrateful wretched family, just like the Yutai people in Ying Chen's previous life.
When someone helps you, instead of being grateful, you try to bite the hand that feeds you.
That's absolutely heartless.
"Uncle, I need your help in going to the capital. The safety of the Fourth Prince is crucial to our clan's future, and we absolutely cannot afford any mistakes..."
Ye Tianyi turned to the Ye family elder beside him and spoke.
The elder nodded and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me!"
Ye Tianyi nodded in satisfaction upon hearing the elder's reply.
"Father, I want to go to the capital with the clan elders!"
Just then, a young man stepped out from the crowd and spoke.
The young man was handsome, with phoenix eyes, dressed in a white robe, and his face was full of determination.
The boy's name was Ye Xingchen, the only son of Ye Tianyi and the young master of the Ye family.
Moreover, he is the number one genius of the Ye family. At only twenty years old, he has already reached the middle stage of the Golden Core realm, just one step away from reaching the late stage of the Golden Core realm, which is equivalent to the clan's steward.
Furthermore, Ye Xingchen's combat strength is extremely extraordinary, allowing him to fight beyond his level. He once defeated a clan elder who was in the late Golden Core stage with his mid-stage Golden Core cultivation.
"Xingchen, don't be silly. The capital is now the focus of everyone's attention. What are you doing going there as a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator? You could easily lose your life."
Ye Tianyi frowned and reprimanded him.
“Father, it is precisely because of the dangerous situation in the capital that I must go. The strong always grow through constant trials. Without experiencing hardships, one can never become a true strongman, and how can one lead the family to revival!”
Ye Xingchen spoke with a resolute expression.
Upon hearing Ye Xingchen's words, Ye Tianyi was taken aback for a moment, then a look of relief appeared on his face.
"The young clan leader is truly a role model for our clan! When I return, I will definitely make sure my little brat learns from him. The young clan leader is already sharing the burdens of the clan leader at such a young age, while my little one has only just reached the Foundation Establishment stage. It's true what they say, comparisons are odious!"
"The young clan leader has truly inherited the clan leader's excellent genes!"
"..."
Upon hearing Ye Xingchen's words, the elders and deacons below showered him with compliments.
"Alright! Xingchen, you will go to the capital with the clan elders! Remember, once you arrive in the capital, you must listen to the clan elders and never act on your own. Remember, there are always people more capable than you, and there is always something beyond your understanding. In my Ye family, you are the young clan leader and a genius, but the capital is where all the geniuses of the Great Qin are gathered. Never become complacent..."
Ye Tianyi earnestly advised.
Upon hearing Ye Tianyi's words, Ye Xingchen smiled, bowed to Ye Tianyi, and said, "Father, rest assured, I will absolutely obey the elders' words and will not cause trouble in the capital!"
At the same time, he added in his mind, "Although I won't go looking for trouble, I won't show any mercy if someone comes looking for me..."
He naturally wouldn't go looking for trouble, but from childhood to adulthood, there have always been some clueless people who don't like him and just want to cause him trouble.
He feared the same upon arriving in the capital, but instead of being afraid, he was eager to try...
Because he really enjoys being provoked, then showing off and getting humiliated, and seeing the expressions on those people's faces—it greatly satisfies his peculiar fetish...
Moreover, he had the clan elder by his side, and moreover, he possessed a secret unknown to everyone else...
He never told this secret to anyone, not even his father...
