38: Ye Qingtian's plan

"Where is the ancestor?"

The Person in charge looked at the sky, momentarily stunned. How did the ancestor disappear in the blink of an eye?

Moreover, he couldn't even sense their Aura.

Beside him, Ye Qingtian's eyes flickered slightly, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.

Bang!

With a muffled thud, he directly pierced the Person in charge's chest with a single palm strike.

"Uh..."

The Person in charge's eyes widened, looking at Ye Qingtian in disbelief:

"You..."

"Hehe, you didn't really think I would destroy the ye Family, did you?"

Ye Qingtian sneered.

The Person in charge opened his mouth but couldn't speak anymore, only spitting out blood foam as his life force gradually dissipated.

Tossing the Person in charge aside, Ye Qingtian took a deep breath and roared:

"Operation failed!

Everyone, retreat immediately!"

At this moment, issuing a retreat order meant telling everyone to give up resisting.

If they were ordinary people, they might resist.

But the people who followed were all deathsworn. They followed orders strictly. The Person in charge was the first commander, and Ye Qingtian was the second commander. In the absence of an order from the Person in charge...

Ye Qingtian's words were the command.

This was the authority he specifically requested.

Now, it just came in handy.

All the deathsworn immediately began to retreat. However, Ye City had already been sealed off, making it impossible to withdraw. Their defeat was like a collapsing mountain. With this retreat, it was difficult to form an effective counterattack.

They could only be chased and killed by the ye Family.

"Ye Qingtian!"

Just then, with an angry roar, Ye Lingtian appeared before Ye Qingtian.

His Aura surged as he pointed at Ye Qingtian:

"This time, you won't escape!"

Hearing this, Ye Qingtian smiled faintly:

"Escape?

Why would I escape?"

"Heh, you've caused such chaos in the ye Family. Don't tell me you thought I would let you off?"

Ye Lingtian sneered.

He looked at Ye Qingtian, his face full of resentment. He recalled that back then, after Ye Qingtian failed to compete for the Family head position, it was he who ordered to stop pursuing Ye Qingtian.

And it was precisely because of this that the ye Family was not united, and even now, there were still people supporting Ye Qingtian.

"Don't talk nonsense. I didn't cause chaos in the ye Family. If it weren't for me, did you think it would be so simple to kill so many people from the other Ancient Clans? Hehe, thirty-two Supremes. They really bled heavily this time."

Ye Qingtian laughed.

These were all enemies of the ye Family, posing a great threat to them. And this time, a lot of the enemy's core strength was wiped out. Most importantly, thirty-two Supremes!

This was absolutely an unbearable loss.

At the very least, they might not recover within a few thousand years.

Let alone threaten the ye Family.

Hearing his words, Ye Lingtian frowned. He knew that Qin Jiang and Ye Qingtian were cooperating, but he wasn't sure whether Qin Jiang had tricked Ye Qingtian and the other Ancient Clans, or if Qin Jiang and Ye Qingtian had teamed up to trick the other Ancient Clans.

He wasn't clear about that.

"Alright, where is Qin Jiang? Let him come out. He knows everything."

Ye Qingtian said.

At this moment, Qin Jiang also appeared, looking at the two brothers with interest:

"Why aren't you fighting?"

Ye Qingtian: "..."

Ye Lingtian: "..."

Both looked at Qin Jiang, one with inquiry in his eyes, the other with anticipation.

"Alright, I'll explain."

Qin Jiang raised a hand:

"All of this was indeed Ye Qingtian's idea. Although he left the ye Family because of the position of Family head, he still has a strong sense of belonging to the ye Family.

So, he designed all of this to scheme against your ye Family's enemies."

As he spoke, he looked at Ye Lingtian:

"I have to say, he is more suitable to be the Family head."

Ye Lingtian: "..."

Ye Qingtian looked smug. This time, he was a great hero of the ye Family!

He looked at Ye Lingtian and said with a smile:

"Second brother, get ready to abdicate and yield the position."

Ye Lingtian's Aura was a bit weaker, but he still didn't back down.

Watching the two brothers cause such a commotion over competing for the position of Family head, Qin Jiang was slightly puzzled.

After all, in the Qin Family, the Family head position seemed like a hot potato. Almost as soon as the next generation grew up, the previous Family head would directly abdicate.

Without any reluctance.

What they pursued was strength, and being the Family head wasted too much time.

Just like now, Qin Jiang's father wanted to pass the Family head position to him, but all the Old Ancestors clearly stated that Qin Jiang could not be the Family head.

At least, he couldn't waste cultivation time on Family affairs. So, even if the Family head position was passed to Qin Jiang, a lot of troublesome matters still had to be handled by Qin Jiang's father himself.

Therefore, he really didn't understand the matter of the two ye Family brothers competing for the Family head position.

Of course, he also knew that this was due to the different systems of the Ancient Clans. For example, in some Ancient Clans, the next Family head would only be replaced after the previous one died. In ten thousand years, the position might not change hands many times.

However, in the ye Family, the Family head's power was very great. At times, even the Old Ancestor had to obey the Family head's orders. It was precisely because of this that both brothers yearned for the position of Family head.

Qin Jiang couldn't be bothered with these competitions.

Anyway, the ye Family's crisis was completely resolved, and he even made a little profit along the way.

"I wonder how many treasures I can bring back."

Qin Jiang's thoughts had already drifted to Ancient Clans like the zhao Family. Although these Ancient Clans' strength couldn't compare to Qin Jiang's, they had accumulated treasures for ten thousand years, so there must be quite a few.

This wave was a huge profit!

...

The next morning, Ye City returned to normal.

However, the atmosphere was slightly oppressive, and a hint of blood lingered in the air.

In the main hall of the ye Family's ancestral land.

All the ancestors were present, and the two brothers, Ye Qingtian and Ye Lingtian, were still competing with each other.

The gazes of many ancestors were all directed at Ye Qingtian:

"All of this was your plan?"

"That's right!"

Ye Qingtian tilted his head back, his face full of pride.

As soon as he said this, many ancestors' eyes narrowed slightly:

"Then poisoning us was also part of your plan?"

"No... Uh..."

Ye Qingtian's expression froze. He suddenly sensed something was wrong. The Old Ancestor's tone seemed a bit unfriendly.

After a slight pause, he said cautiously:

"You can't catch a wolf without the bait."

Hearing this, the faces of the ancestors darkened. That poison had really put them through a lot.

Fortunately, it only made them slightly weak for a short time. Now they had almost fully recovered.

"Using us as bait, you're really bold!"

"To catch a big fish, you naturally need big bait. Otherwise, the fish won't bite."

Ye Qingtian spread his hands.

The ancestors naturally understood this principle, but it was truly frustrating.

In the main hall, there was silence for a while. Then an ancestor suddenly said:

"That Qin Jiang said you are more suitable to be the Family head than lingtian?"

"That's what he said, and I think he makes a lot of sense."

Ye Qingtian nodded. He highly praised Qin Jiang, even considering Qin Jiang his only confidant.

The ancestors exchanged glances. Clearly, they took Qin Jiang's words seriously. After all, they had witnessed the Fourth Ancestor's strength, and that was a Great Emperor!

Therefore, they must hold onto this important connection with the Qin Family tightly!
