Looking at this generation of descendants with no prospects, Ye Yuanshan was truly angry. He had lived a brilliant life, once holding great power, but now? There was no one among the Ye family’s later generations who could uphold their reputation; it was utterly disappointing and heartbreaking for him.

When Ye Yuanshan walked out leaning on his cane, Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo, along with others, were trembling with fear, cautiously stepping out as they were terrified that someone might suddenly strike, everyone was filled with fear and nerves.

”If you are really that scared, then roll back to where you came from. I want to see who dares to intrude and kill in my Ye family’s territory!” Ye Yuanshan said annoyed, glancing at Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo.

Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo were very embarrassed, not daring to say a word or even breathe loudly, while the even more arrogant than their father, Ye Qianxuan and Ye Qi, also shrank back. Confronted with the Ye family having lost over ten guards to the slaughter, they were too terrified to step forward, with their cowardly sides promptly showing.

Ye Yuanshan also frowned, looking ahead. He saw dozens of the Ye family’s guards already standing in the open space ahead, and before them were two assassins dressed in black. The assassins were not masked, and in their hands, they each held a katana smeared with fresh blood. Upon seeing the blood-drenched katanas, Ye Yuanshan frowned deeply and said harshly, ”People from Japan, those bastards, why would they target my Ye family?”

Upon hearing Ye Yuanshan’s words, the Ye family descendants behind him were stunned. Initially, they thought their family might be targeted by other major clans and forces, not expecting it to be assassins from Japan. The murderous pair held Japanese-style katanas, which were wider and thicker than ordinary ones, their viciousness making them extremely sharp and invincible.

Pu!

A spurt of blood erupted, followed by a security guard from the Ye family being kicked away, landing in front of Ye Yuanshan and the others. His throat was slit, with blood gushing and blood spurting from his nose and mouth. He struggled a few times before dying painfully; the sight was so tragic that Ye Mubai and others inevitably stepped back, no one daring to come forward.

Pu!

Bang!

Pu!

Bang!

The two black-clad assassins wielding Japanese katanas were overwhelmingly strong. With just a swing of their katanas, a massive vicious aura surged, the sword energy killing people, affecting those within hundreds of meters. Although these guards were also remarkable and carefully selected, they had never witnessed such a brutal and indiscriminate killing like chopping vegetables. Especially since there were only two of the enemy, their strength was so formidable that the guards simply couldn’t withstand them. People continued to fall in front of them, the two seeming to be on a mission to annihilate the Ye family entirely, cold-blooded and bloodthirsty.

Faced with such a scene, aside from Ye Yuanshan, Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo and others were already petrified. They were usually proud and arrogant, having seen big scenes as a major family. However, most of those scenes involved others not daring to provoke them, certainly never having anyone so brazenly rushing in to kill. They shuddered and sweated as they saw the bodies of the security guards kicked away, realizing that when the killing reached their location, those without any real skill among them were bound to die.

”Dad, I... I... we should quickly escape through the back door...” Ye Mubai wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Given that the Ye family’s security guards were like fish on a chopping board before these black-clad individuals, relying on them for protection was impossible. Judging by the speed, it would take less than two minutes for the assassins to reach their location.

”Yes, dad, let’s go quickly. We can’t hold them off, and by the time the police arrive, we’ll all be dead!” Ye Heguo said, trembling all over in fear.

Ye Yuanshan turned around, looked at his descendants who were trembling and sweating from fear, and sighed deeply, ”You all go, quickly escape through the back door. I will stay here!”

”Dad...”

”I’m old, and I won’t live many more years anyway. It doesn’t matter if I die. This is the Ye family’s old mansion, the symbol of the Ye family. If even I flee, not only will the Ye family be destroyed, but we will also lose the last bit of our dignity. That would truly make us a laughingstock!” Ye Yuanshan shook his head and said.

At this moment, though the Ye family descendants were scared and eager to escape quickly through the back door, they froze upon hearing Ye Yuanshan’s words. Also, the assassins hadn’t reached them yet, so none wanted to be the first to betray the Ye family.

”Ah...”

At that moment, a scream rang out as a security guard’s heart was pierced by a Japanese katana wielded by an assassin. This time, the assassin wasn’t kicked away but instead charged forward with the dead body toward Ye Yuanshan and the others, startling Ye Mubai and his group who hurriedly retreated. Only Ye Yuanshan stood his ground, unmoved—a clear display of his venerable authority and unyielding spirit.

”Dad... hurry... let’s go!”

”Dad, let’s leave... we don’t want to die...”

”You all go!” Ye Yuanshan, leaning on his cane, stood still, waiting for the assassin to approach.

Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo were already paralyzed with fear. Their innate cowardice was exposed as they abandoned Ye Yuanshan and ran away. Seeing them flee, the rest of the Ye family members followed suit and ran. Ye Yuanshan just sighed and shook his head, knowing that a person’s spirit and dignity are innate and cannot be forced.

Puff!

When the assassin, carrying the security guard’s body on his katana, reached Ye Yuanshan, he didn’t immediately strike. Instead, he forcefully split the guard’s body in two with a single slice, blood spilling everywhere, the innards and limbs shattered beyond recognition, a grisly death indeed.

”If you invade the Ye family and wish to kill, you may kill me, Ye Yuanshan. Do not murder the innocent!” Ye Yuanshan said sternly to the assassin.

”Hahahaha, so you are Ye Yuanshan? Quite spirited, I must say!” The assassin scoffed, laughing loudly in fluent Chinese.

Ye Yuanshan took a closer look at the assassin and was startled. This man spoke perfect Chinese. If it weren’t for his physique and the Japanese katana in his hand, no one would suspect him to be from Japan. Ye Yuanshan, having held high positions before, knew slightly about these matters. Japan’s ambition to destroy China has never died down. Although they have not dared to wage a war in recent years, they have been preparing, training their people, learning the Chinese language and culture, all in preparation for another potential invasion.

”Indeed, I am Ye Yuanshan. Speak to me if you need something, but stop this senseless killing!” Ye Yuanshan coldly told the assassin.

”Sorry, it’s already too late...” the assassin replied with a cold laugh, then turned to look behind, only to see another assassin had just decapitated the last security guard, completing their massacre.

Ye Yuanshan was also shocked. The Ye family had over thirty security guards, each carefully selected, not extremely powerful but all skilled. Yet, all of these guards hadn’t even come close to fighting back before they were slain by these two assassins dressed in black, a cruel and bloody scene.

The second assassin, also holding a blood-dripping Japanese katana, approached Ye Yuanshan and stared coldly at him. They had been ordered by Elder Songben Xiajian to come to the Ye house. While others had different missions, their only task was to kill all members of the Ye family and find out the whereabouts of Ye Tianchen, thus killing two birds with one stone.

”Tell us, where is your grandson Ye Tianchen?” the assassin asked with a disdainful smirk, glancing at Ye Yuanshan.

”I don’t know!” Ye Yuanshan stated firmly.

What Ye Yuanshan hadn’t anticipated was that these two Japanese assassins had targeted Ye Tianchen. He didn’t know the specific reason, but such a slaughter at the Ye household surely meant deep-seated hatred. But Ye Yuanshan, a man of national integrity and passion, formerly in a position of power, would never treat lightly the matter of dealing with these ”little devils.” He supported his grandson, Ye Tianchen.

”Don’t know? If you don’t know, you will die!” The assassin abruptly raised his katana, still smeared with the blood of the slain guards, looking even more terrifying.

”Even if I die, I will not compromise with you devils!” Ye Yuanshan pounded his cane on the ground as he spoke.

Just then, when it seemed the assassin would kill Ye Yuanshan, he did not do so. Instead, he slowly lowered his katana, stepped forward, and, looking intriguingly at Ye Yuanshan, said with a smile, ”Ye Yuanshan, do you think if you die, it doesn’t matter since your offspring have escaped? Let me tell you, they won’t be able to escape. Don’t believe me? Turn and look.”

Ye Yuanshan startled, furrowed his brows deeply. Despite Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo being cowardly and even deserting him, they were still his own descendants. Ye Yuanshan naturally hoped they could escape, but when he turned to look behind, Ye Mubai, Ye Heguo, and the others were all terrified, trembling as they walked back. Behind them were two assassins, holding Japanese katanas and wearing disdainful smirks. Clearly, the enemies had anticipated this, making escape through the back door impossible. (To be continued.
