4: The Ye family surrenders

Qin Jiang looked at Ye Linger and smiled, "If I'm not mistaken, you already know all of this."

Ye Linger looked at Qin Jiang in shock.

The Xiao Family members were also extremely shocked; none of them had expected Ye Linger to have such a background.

"The Ye Family, is it that Ancient Clan Ye Family?" Xiao An murmured.

"You..." Ye Linger stared at Qin Jiang, her expression a little tense, "How do you know all of this?"

"Heh heh, do you think my Qin Family is useless?" Qin Jiang sneered, then looked towards a direction in the void.

"People from the Ye Family, stop hiding."

As his voice fell, the void trembled slightly, and soon after, a figure appeared.

"Ye Kuan of the Ye Family greets Young Master Qin Jiang."

This was an old man; after appearing, he slightly cupped his hands towards Qin Jiang.

At the same time, Black Dragon stepped forward, looking at the old senior vigilantly; this old senior's strength was slightly stronger than his.

"Ye Kuan, a staunch loyalist of the Ye Family Patriarch, with the strength of the Yin Yang Realm Completion, his illustrious name is like thunder to the ears." Qin Jiang said with a smile.

Ye Kuan also gave a light smile; he was a powerful expert in his own right, and taking the initiative to salute Qin Jiang was already showing the Qin Family a lot of Face.

After speaking, Qin Jiang looked at Black Dragon, "Are you confident you can kill him?"

Ye Kuan: "..."

His expression stiffened, and then his eyes narrowed slightly, "Young Master Qin, my Ye Family and the Qin Family have no grievances."

"Now we do." Qin Jiang's gaze was still fixed on Black Dragon.

Black Dragon's expression was solemn; he carefully sized up Ye Kuan, took a deep breath, and nodded heavily, "Young Master, in a fight to the death, your subordinate is confident he can kill him!"

His Realm was Yin Yang Realm Peak, slightly weaker than Ye Kuan by one minor Realm.

But he had absolute confidence in his combat power.

"Since that's the case..."

"Young Master Qin, wait!" Before Qin Jiang could finish speaking, Ye Kuan directly interrupted; he faintly sensed a dangerous aura from Black Dragon, and besides that, he truly didn't want to fall out with the Qin Family.

Thirteen years ago, the internal strife in the Ye Family caused them to lose considerable strength.

And the Qin Family was one of the strongest Ancient Clans, much stronger than the Ye Family.

Provoking the Qin Family was not a wise choice.

"Young Master Qin wants to take my Miss back, right?" Ye Kuan asked.

He had been hidden in the void the entire time and was well aware of everything that had just happened.

Qin Jiang nodded.

Upon seeing this, Ye Kuan's heart stirred, "This old man and Miss can return together with Young Master Qin, only hoping that my Ye Family and the Qin Family will not become enemies because of this."

When he found Ye Linger, he wanted to take her back to the Ye Family, but Ye Linger was worried about Xiao Fan and was unwilling to return.

Moreover, through this period of observation, he could vaguely sense that Ye Linger seemed to have some special feelings for Xiao Fan, and Xiao Fan was just a piece of trash.

How could he be worthy of Miss?

He was just getting a headache over this when, unexpectedly, Qin Jiang brought his younger sister to break off the engagement.

Most importantly, Qin Jiang seemed to have taken a liking to Miss.

Perhaps...

Ye Kuan looked at Qin Jiang; compared to Xiao Fan, Qin Jiang was handsome and imposing, and even among the younger generation of Ancient Clans, he could be considered a top-tier Prodigy.

No matter how you looked at it, he was streets ahead of Xiao Fan.

Therefore, Ye Kuan had a little idea.

Whether it was talent or family background, he was worthy of his Miss.

"What does Young Master Qin think?" There was a hint of anticipation in Ye Kuan's tone.

Qin Jiang raised an eyebrow; why did this old senior seem so eager to give Ye Linger to him?

Could this guy be a traitor of the Ye Family?

Ye Linger was even more dumbfounded; she looked at Ye Kuan in shock; during this time, Ye Kuan had been constantly telling her how bad men were, that she was still young, and not in a hurry to fall in love and so on.

But now...

"Uncle Kuan, what are you doing!" She scolded angrily.

Qin Jiang looked down at Ye Linger and chuckled, "He wants to latch onto the Qin Family and use this to break the Ye Family's predicament."

"Latch onto the Qin Family?" Ye Linger snorted coldly, "My Ye Family also belongs to the Ancient Clans, and our strength is not inferior to the Qin Family; why should we latch onto the Qin Family and use their power?"

"Heh heh, it seems you don't know much about the Ye Family." Qin Jiang scoffed, "Let alone now, even thirteen years ago, when your Ye Family hadn't experienced internal strife, you weren't qualified to contend with the Qin Family.

Now, after the internal strife, the Ye Family's losses are not small, and furthermore, during the internal strife back then, although your father successfully took the position, the Ye Family's eldest brother did not die.

In fact, there are even staunch loyalists of the Ye Family's eldest brother in the Ye Family.

At this time, if someone were to slightly support the Ye Family's eldest brother, heh heh..."

As he spoke, he looked at Ye Kuan, "If I'm not mistaken, there should be Ancient Clan forces secretly supporting the Ye Family's eldest brother, right?"

Ye Kuan was slightly silent, then gave a wry smile, "Young Master Qin's foresight is divine."

"You want Ye Linger to come back with me; firstly, you want to use the Qin Family's power, and secondly... you are worried that Ye Linger will be in danger, am I right?"

Ye Kuan nodded again.

The current Ye Family was not stable; otherwise, he would have already forcibly taken Ye Linger back directly.

"It's just a pity that your Miss doesn't seem willing." Qin Jiang said with a light smile, "Perhaps my Qin Family will also need to contact the Ye Family's eldest brother."

Ye Kuan: "..."

This was blatant blackmail!

He looked at Ye Linger, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Miss, what do you think..."

Although he didn't say it out loud, everyone understood his meaning.

For a moment, Ye Linger was somewhat confused and helpless.

She had originally thought that she could use the Ye Family's reputation to help Xiao Fan, but now, not only could she not help Xiao Fan, but she would also be implicated.

Even the Ye Family was being threatened.

She felt incredibly wronged in her heart; when Ye Kuan found her, he clearly said that the Ye Family was very powerful, a top-tier existence in the entire Tianxuan Continent.

But now, any random Ancient Clan that came out could threaten the Ye Family.

Her imagination of the Ye Family was completely overturned.

"Miss, if you act willfully now, it will not only implicate our Ye Family but also the Xiao Family..." Ye Kuan said softly.

Having been living outside for more than ten years, Ye Linger might not have much sense of belonging to the Ye Family, but she still cared about the Xiao Family.

Therefore, upon hearing Ye Kuan mention the Xiao Family, her delicate body trembled slightly.

She couldn't help but look at Xiao Fan, but she also understood that Xiao Fan couldn't save her, and perhaps not even himself.

Ye Linger's beautiful eyes closed slightly, and she nodded, "Okay, I'll go with you."

"Ling'er!" Xiao Fan was incredulous; Ye Linger actually agreed.

Ye Linger smiled sadly but didn't say anything further.

Ye Kuan waved his large hand, and a force directly enveloped Ye Linger; the two of them stepped onto Qin Jiang's Chains of Command together.

He nodded slightly towards Qin Jiang, then walked to the side.

As for Qin Jiang, he looked at Xiao Fan; the ring hadn't been obtained yet.
