45: Ye Anli swore a blood oath! Behead Ye Dong in public!
When Ye Dong and his subordinates ran out of the room,
they saw that quite a number of people had already gathered outside.
Ye Xinyan's voice earlier was too loud, startling even the other people nearby.
Seeing that it was Ye Xinyan calling him, Ye Dong couldn't help but smile.
"So it's Sister Ye. Is there something you need to shout so loudly for?"
"You're making me quite embarrassed!"
Ye Xinyan, hearing this, was full of disdain and said coldly,
"Of course there's something when I call you out!"
Saying that, Ye Xinyan took out the letter that Ye An had previously shown.
Then, with a wave of her hand, the words on the letter instantly emitted a golden light, which rapidly expanded.
Subsequently, it actually emerged from the envelope, transforming into lines of large golden characters that appeared in mid-air.
Then Ye Xinyan said,
"Is this letter written by you?"
The crowd below was stunned and immediately hurried to read the content of the letter.
Only Ye Dong.
When he saw the first line of the letter, his entire face changed.
He quickly lowered his head, his expression shifting between clear and uncertain, wondering what he was thinking.
As the others below gradually understood the content of the letter, murmurs of discussion also gradually rose.
"This... this is clearly a letter of informing!"
"How could this be written by Ye Dong? He's also a member of the Ye Family!"
"That's right, if this was written by Ye Dong, wouldn't he be a traitor to our Ye Family?"
"I heard that Miss Jiang almost died at the hands of that Great Yao Beast back then!"
"More than that, even this branch Family suffered heavy losses back then. I heard the Great Yao Beast killed its way here and killed many people along the way!"
"But why would Ye Dong do this?"
... The crowd below discussed animatedly.
And almost at the same time, two women also stood out from the crowd.
One middle-aged woman was Ye Dong's birth mother, Ye Pei!
The other was an old woman, whom Ye Xinyan also recognized; this person was none other than Ye Xuan, the Family Head of the branch Family Ye Dong previously belonged to!
As soon as Ye Pei came out, she questioned,
"Ye Xinyan, what is the meaning of this?"
"Bringing out a letter from who knows where, do you actually want to slander my son for colluding with Yao Beasts and betraying the Ye Family?"
Ye Xuan also said,
"Xin Yan, this matter is not trivial. Dong'er is, after all, a child of our Ye Family!"
"Can you first tell us the origin of this letter?"
Ye Xinyan heard this and said,
"Of course!"
"This letter was brought back by Ye An!"
"It is said that the Great Yao Beast showed it to him!"
"What?"
Everyone was in an uproar upon hearing this.
Ye Pei, however, retorted,
"Absolutely absurd!"
"A letter given by a Great Yao Beast, can it be believed?"
"This is clearly an attempt to sow discord, Ye Xinyan, can't you see through such a simple matter? You're simply muddle-headed!"
Ye Xinyan hadn't spoken yet when a voice came from one side of the crowd.
"This old woman has also seen this letter. Does that mean this old woman is also muddle-headed?"
Everyone looked over, and when they saw it was Ye Quan,
they all quickly bowed in greeting.
Currently, Ye Quan was the person with the highest status in the entire branch Family.
These people naturally didn't dare to be presumptuous when they met her.
"Sister Quan, you've also seen this letter?"
"But Dong'er is, after all, of our Ye Family's blood, and we cannot make a hasty judgment!"
Ye Xuan said.
Although Ye Pei was somewhat wary of Ye Quan, since it concerned her son, she still braved herself and said,
"Ye Quan, although you are now the administrator of the branch Family!"
"But everything still needs evidence. Are you going to convict my son based solely on this one letter?"
Saying that, Ye Pei also looked at Ye An next to her!
"A letter brought back from who knows where, and you want to convict my son!"
"Then can I also question the authenticity of this letter?"
"My son's handwriting isn't something difficult to imitate. What if this person secretly persecuted him?"
Ye An couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this.
"No wonder you raised such a son!"
"I've been standing here for a long time, but I haven't said a single word!"
"Yet you're the first to question me!"
"What? Is that not allowed?"
"Are you only allowed to slander my son?"
Ye Pei said angrily.
Ye An smiled upon hearing this.
"You can certainly ask me!"
"But the problem is, where does the phrase 'slander your son' come from?"
"You simply don't believe this letter was written by your son, right?"
"Well then, let's just prove it on the spot!"
"How do we prove it?"
Ye Pei frowned and said.
Ye Quan interjected,
"It's very simple!"
"This is the Cultivation World, so let's make a blood oath!"
"Whether this letter was written by Ye An to slander your son, or if it was truly done by your son!"
"We'll know with one test!"
As soon as Ye Quan finished speaking, Ye An immediately raised his hand and said,
"I, Ye An, swear that if this letter was written by me, I shall not die a good death!"
"Ye Dong! What do you say?"
After Ye An finished speaking, he looked directly at Ye Dong!
At the same time, everyone's gaze also turned to Ye Dong.
Ye Pei quickly said,
"Son, don't be afraid. If it wasn't written by you, there's nothing to be afraid of!"
"Just make a blood oath!"
"I..."
Ye Dong, upon hearing this, felt like dying!
How could he make a blood oath!
Others didn't know, but he himself was very clear.
This letter was indeed written by him!
"Ye Dong?"
Seeing her son hesitate, Ye Pei also urged him.
Ye Xinyan smiled and said,
"What? Feeling guilty and scared?"
"Or you could just admit it and explain the whole situation clearly!"
"I... I!"
Ye Dong stammered but couldn't utter a single complete sentence for a long time!
Seeing this, Ye Quan bothered no more with idle talk and said to Ye Xinyan,
"Remaining silent, he clearly has a guilty conscience!"
"Xin Yan, act!"
"Yes!"
Ye Xinyan wasted no words, instantly flipping her palm.
Immediately, she formed a hand seal, and a sword shadow actually appeared out of thin air.
As the sword shadow materialized, it instantly moved to strike at Ye Dong.
Ye Pei, seeing this, quickly blocked in front of Ye Dong and shouted,
"Ye Xinyan, what are you doing? My son is being wronged!"
"If he's wronged, why does he not dare to make a blood oath!"
"He clearly has a guilty conscience. If you don't move aside, I'll strike you down too!"
"You!"
Ye Pei was extremely anxious and was about to turn her head to persuade her son.
But as she turned, she saw that Ye Dong had already knelt down.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, I'll tell you everything!"
"The letter was written by me, but it's not my fault. It's all Ye An's fault!"
"It was I who first took a liking to Ye Tonger and Ye Yinger!"
"But he took them away from me!"
"I was unwilling, and that's why I wanted to get revenge on him!"
"I admit everything, don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
"Rebellious son!"
Listening to her son's words, Ye Pei felt a moment of mental daze.
She almost fainted.
Meanwhile, Ye Quan on the side had already spoken.
"You, out of personal resentment, committed the vile act of betraying the Family!"
"Furthermore, you caused several people in our branch Family to lose their lives, Ye An was even captured, and the Main Family even spent all its wealth because of this!"
"Truly detestable to the extreme!"
"His crime warrants execution!"
"Xin Yan, kill him!"
"Yes!"
Ye Xinyan wasted no words, and with a swift sword strike,
she directly pierced through Ye Dong's body in front of everyone.
Meanwhile, Ye Pei's vision instantly went black, and she fainted.
Ye Quan snorted coldly upon seeing this.
"Ye Pei failed in raising her son, causing the Family heavy losses!"
"From today onwards, she is to reflect behind closed doors!"
"For three years!"
