Who Made Him an Antagonist

394: Chapter 394 The Future Empress’s Deciding Person”You...”

”You are actually in the Divine Power Realm!?”

The Ye Family Old Ancestor’s face was gripped so hard it turned the color of a braised pig’s trotter.

His cloudy eyes widened, his eyeballs nearly bulging out.

He stared at Qin Ge in front of him with a look of utter disbelief.

Saliva spilled from his mouth.

Crack—

With a slight exertion of force, Qin Ge snapped the Ye Family Old Ancestor’s neck and tossed him aside with disgust, saying irritably, ”At your age, you’re old enough to be drooling. Why didn’t you stay in your own little corner to enjoy your retirement instead of coming out here to act tough?”

Gulp!

Every member of the Ye Family present swallowed hard in terror.

Dead?

The Ye Family Old Ancestor is dead!?

The only Divine Power Realm expert of the Ye Family is dead!

Their Ye Family had been able to possess their current status and resources within this great city...

All thanks to the Deterrence of the Old Ancestor.

Now, the Old Ancestor has met a tragic death.

The Ye Family is finished!

They will face the covetous eyes of countless families, like a pack of wolves and tigers!

After dealing with the Ye Family Old Ancestor, Qin Ge glanced sideways at Ye Qingyi, whose beautiful eyes were filled with despair as if she had lost all hope for living, and said softly, ”Is there anywhere else you want to go?”

”I can guarantee that from now on, the Ye Family will no longer trouble you, nor will they covet your dao embryo jade bone.”

Ye Qingyi raised her eyes and spoke dully, ”I have a friend named Xiao Hong. But as the Cangxuan Realm shifted to Blue Star, the Ye Family told me she is no longer in the city. I don’t know if it’s true.”

”I’ll take you there to have a look.”

Qin Ge took hold of Ye Qingyi’s slender arm and soared into the sky, flying through the air in the direction she indicated.

”Father!”

”Revenge, we must have revenge!”

”We must avenge the Old Ancestor and kill Qin Ge!!!”

Ye Yu shifted his gaze from the Old Ancestor’s corpse to Ye Family Head, who was kneeling on the ground, and roared in anger.

Slap—

Ye Family Head, who had never struck Ye Yu before, sent him flying with a single slap!

”Father, why did you hit me?”

Ye Yu sat slumped on the ground, questioning him with an indignant look.

”Hit you?” Ye Family Head trembled with rage. ”If it weren’t for the fact that you’re my only son, I’d have the heart to kill you myself right now!”

”If you hadn’t called for the Old Ancestor, how could he have died so tragically!?”

”Without the Old Ancestor’s suppression, more than half of our Ye Family’s resources will be carved up!”

”And you talk about revenge?!”

”Now, such a young Divine Power Realm expert has appeared on Blue Star!”

”Who knows how terrifying the powerhouses of Blue Star truly are? Does that Qin Ge have a sect behind him?”

”Do you think the Ye Family’s situation is too good? Do you want to see our Family destroyed before you’re satisfied!?”

The more Ye Family Head spoke, the angrier he became.

Unable to restrain himself, he began punching and kicking Ye Yu indiscriminately.

Only after beating Ye Yu until even his own father wouldn’t recognize him did he wave his hand and command the servants, ”Take him out for treatment!”

He looked around at the crowd. ”Not a single word of today’s events is to be leaked to the outside world!”

”Bury the Old Ancestor’s body in secret. Remember, outsiders must not learn of this news!”

Phew—

Ye Family Head let out a long breath of turbid air after giving all the instructions.

Even though he felt heaven-toppling rage, he didn’t dare vent it now!

Qin Ge’s strength was so great that the hair on the back of his neck stood on end!

Compared to seeking revenge, the Ye Family’s top priority right now was to guard against the greed of other families in the city!

...

On the other side, Qin Ge arrived at the connected island with Ye Qingyi, walking through a rather dilapidated town.

Whenever Ye Qingyi saw an acquaintance, she would ask, ”Auntie, have you seen Xiao Hong?”

”Go away, go away! I haven’t seen her!”

”Uncle, have you seen Xiao Hong?”

”She’s been dead for who knows how many days. Her body’s probably been carried off by the wolves in the outskirts!”

Dead?

Walking behind Ye Qingyi, Qin Ge frowned slightly.

Surely not?

Although Xiao Hong wasn’t particularly gifted...

She relied on the friendship she had built with Ye Qingyi since childhood to become Ye Qingyi’s spokesperson after her rise.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say her status was pivotal.

Although Xiao Hong didn’t have much of a connection with the Son of Destiny Fang Yu...

Fang Yu’s contact with Ye Qingyi relied entirely on Xiao Hong acting as a messenger.

Logically, Xiao Hong could be considered half a Daughter of Destiny.

How could she be dead?

Moreover, in the original plot, after Ye Qingyi had her dao embryo jade bone stripped, she should have met Xiao Hong immediately.

Could it be that the large-scale shift of commoners from the Cangxuan Realm to Blue Star caused the original plot to change?

”If this Xiao Hong is dead, things will be difficult!”

Qin Ge watched Ye Qingyi’s despondent back, which looked like a marionette, and his frown deepened.

Even though he had saved Ye Qingyi, in her heart, he was no different from a stranger.

The only person who could enter Ye Qingyi’s heart was Xiao Hong.

The only one who could make Ye Qingyi give up her suicidal thoughts was Xiao Hong, who had stolen food for her since they were children!

Even the Son of Destiny Fang Yu didn’t hold as high a position in Ye Qingyi’s heart as Xiao Hong did right now!

”Xiao Hong... she might really be dead.”

Ye Qingyi turned around, her beautiful eyes unfocused and full of dullness. ”Xiao Hong offended many nearby Gangs!”

”Perhaps the Ye Family thought Xiao Hong was a burden and gave those Gangs information about her, leading to her being killed by them.”

Qin Ge shook his head and said calmly, ”It’s also possible she ran away!”

”Do you have any other acquaintances in this city?”

Ye Qingyi was stunned for a long while, as if her reaction was several beats slow, before slowly nodding. ”Yes, his name is Fang Yu. Back when Xiao Hong was stealing things, she was caught by the Fang Family and beaten severely. When I went to save her, the Fang Family’s Young Master Fang Yu not only let her and me go, but also gave us many steamed buns.”

”If possible, I would like to ask Young Master Qin for some silver so I can repay the kindness of the Fang Family’s Eldest Young Master Fang Yu.”

”However, the Fang Family was destroyed years ago. Fang Yu’s whereabouts are unknown; he might be dead too.”

Qin Ge couldn’t help but want to laugh.

Fang Yu is dead?

Stop joking. Even if the Cangxuan Realm were destroyed, Fang Yu wouldn’t die.

By now, Fang Yu likely knows that Ye Qingyi was taken back by the Ye Family.

He’s probably already on his way to the Ye Family to find her!

In the original plot, after the Ye Family dug out Ye Qingyi’s dao embryo jade bone, she endured the pain of broken bones and left the Family. When Fang Yu came looking for her, Ye Family Head felt a slight twinge of guilt and gave Fang Yu some benefits before sending him away.

And now?

If Fang Yu comes knocking, Ye Family Head won’t be giving benefits.

Giving him two slaps would be considered a merciful reaction from a Ye Family Head who is terrified out of his wits!
