Realms In The Firmament

”I have been elaborately working for my current position for over a dozen years for myself and my children. If your grandson’s return will destroy the bright future of my children…”

”There is nothing more to tell. I can’t let that happen. I can’t let the possibility exist!”

”As long as you promise to give me that little bastard, we can sort it all out. When our clan started to collapse, wasn’t that bastard the cause of it?”

Ye Shuxin gritted his teeth and continued, ”I can make a step back. Let him fight on the stage. Let him go to take some lotuses for the clan. If you have to protect him, I will have to destroy him today. I have to remove the person who leads to an internal dispute of our clan. I am honestly doing this for the sake of our clan.”

”Think about it, this is the best choice you can make which will benefit everybody.” Ye Shuxin seriously continued, ”I assure you that I won’t kill him. I will just put my figure on his dantian, and he will become a free man who doesn’t need to contribute to anything but only to mind his own livelihood. He will enjoy the rest of his life in a leisure way. Isn’t it a perfect condition for him?”

”It is the best I can offer. There is only one way to go. Brother, like it or not, you have to make a choice. If you don’t, I will have to force you!” Ye Shuxin sighed helplessly/ ”You can see the situation. If we start a fight, you will never win. Most importantly, Ye Clan will be damaged by the fight between us! You were once was the Chief, and you always devoted your humble heart to the clan. Is it bearable for you to see our clan falling and our people killing each other just for your own interests?”

Ye Shuqing was extremely pissed. ”Humble heart? Devoted to the clan? These are the same words you used to force me off the chair! Today, are you going to hurt my children in the same way? Who is the evil who only cares for his own interests?”

He laughed sadly and said, ”Ye Shuxin, you asked if it is bearable for me to see this! Answer me, is your heart still a human heart?”

Ye Shuxin said, ”Brother, I chose to do this for the sake of the clan. I have no regret!”

”Bullsh*t! Don’t you regret the heartless sins that you commit?” Ye Shuqing shouted angrily, ”Today, you don’t get to hurt my children! Not unless you kill me first!”

”Brother, you have made your decision. There is nothing else to do. I may have to be disrespectful today.” Ye Shuxin blandly smiled. Suddenly he waved his hand.

- Shoot! - On the wall of the yard, a row of archers appeared.

The arrows were shining in cold lights, aiming at the people who had stood in Ye Shuqing’s side.

The men who were in the conflict all stopped and turned their head to see it. They were all shocked.

In fact, neither the men who stood on Ye Shuxin’s side nor the other men who chose to support Ye Shuqing ever truly wanted to kill anybody. They had no reason to kill their own people just because they had different opinions.

The same situation had happened many times. The third group and the sixth group who were weaker usually submitted.

However, this time, somebody showed their weapons. It was going to be a battle of blood!

Ye Shuxin’s people were holding their heads high, while people on Ye Shuqing’s side all showed a gloomy face.

Nobody was stupid. They all knew… that Ye Shuixn had prepared to do this for a long time!

He might even want to make use of this conflict to drive away or wipe out all those who always stood against his will, to leave no potential threats.

”Ye Shuqing and Ye Nantian are suspected of betrayal. They collaborated with people outside the clan to make disloyal plans. They want to destroy Ye Clan…” Ye Shuxin slowly spoke of some accusations that were entirely made up. The killing intent became stronger and stronger in his eyes.

The others all knew that the bloodshed would be started when he finished talking.

”Prepare for battle!” Ye Shuqing made a long sigh and waved a hand.

Apparently, he was utterly disappointed by his own clan.

Ye Nantian sneered. In fact, he was quite thrilled. He gradually raised his spiritual qi and prepared for the fight.

The other men who were on Ye Shuqing’s side moved to a half-circulate defending array. Every one of them was holding the weapon, ready to kill.

The two groups had been fighting secretly against each other for nearly twenty years. Now, everything was but on the table.

”Ye Shuqing unscrupulously betrays the clan. Do you guys want to join him? Whoever realizes his mistake and mend his ways to kill Ye Shuqing can be spared and forgiven!” Ye Shuxin kept his hands behind the back, staring at the people in disdain.

It was all gloating in his eyes.

It was done!

He believed from now on, there would be no threat to him in Ye Clan!

He didn’t care if there were outsiders waiting to destroy them. As the old saying said, to resist foreign aggression, there must be internal stability!

”Bullsh*t!” A man who stood beside Ye Nantian spat on the floor and said, ”Ye Shuxin, I regret that I have been calling you uncle for such a long time. Everybody knows what you are doing here! You just want to kill the ones who don’t obey you. You are still spreading fallacies trying to deceive people. I would rather die than become a servant to a filthy dog like you!”

People burst into an uproar. None of them submitted to Ye Shuxin’s power.

Ye Shuxin realized he had failed to alienate the opponents, so killing intent rose in his eyes. He slowly nodded and said, ”Well! Good! Excellent!”

Then he shouted, ”Guys, let’s…”

”Wait, wait, wait… As the main character of this event, I haven’t shown myself yet. Why are you guys rushing…” A clear voice sounded with laughter, ”Oh hell. Really? Such a trivial matter? You just want me to do something for the clan. Am I right? Does it really have to become chaos like this? Should I call this a fuss of you or ignorance of you? Besides, even if it is this important, there are lots of ways to solve it!”

And then a young man in white clothes trotted over from the guest room, speaking with a gasp, ”I am coming… I am here. I am the most relevant person in this event. Don’t fight, guys… It is not a big deal… How wrong could it be…”

People on both sides all twisted their lips when they saw this young man.

[Is this Ye Nantian’s son?]

[Why does he sound like a stupid fool who had no consideration?]

[You are the core figure of this conflict, but it doesn’t intrinsically have anything to do with you. Don’t you understand?]

[Understand?]

”You are…” Ye Shuxin smiled when he saw Ye Xiao. [I can just solve the problem on this kid and all threats will be gone. Why do I have to make such a big fight?]
