When Ye Tian returned to the Ye family compound, the collateral relatives nearby wanted to say hello to him, but when they saw Ye Tian's gloomy face, they did not dare to speak.
They walked all the way to the main house of the Ye family. At this time, Ye Hongbo, Ye Yuming and Ye Huiling were all in the house.
Seeing Ye Tian enter the room, Ye Huiling also said: "Where is Liu Xun? Didn't you invite him?"
Following Ye Huiling's words, Ye Hongbo and Ye Yuming also looked at Ye Tian. Although they didn't care about Liu Xun, they couldn't ignore the ancient warriors around Liu Xun. After all, the influence of an ancient warrior was too great.
When Ye Tian heard what Ye Huiling said, his anger was also aroused, but he had no choice but to do so because Ye Huiling was his sister and those present were all his elders, so although he was angry, he could only hold it in and said softly: "Sister, you must have sensed it wrongly. There is such a person, but he is not an ancient warrior, nor is he a double pupil person."
"Ye Tian, what do you mean? Did I sense it wrong? So you mean that I am not a direct descendant of the Ye family?" Upon hearing this, Ye Huiling looked at Ye Tian and retorted.
"Bang!..." As soon as the words fell, there was a heavy slap on the table, followed by Ye Hongbo's angry voice: "Nonsense! What are you talking about? What do you mean you are not a direct descendant?"
Seeing her grandfather's angry look, Ye Huiling also lowered her head. After all, the hierarchy between the direct line and the collateral line was clear, and some words could not be said carelessly! So it was understandable that Ye Hongbo was angry.
"Think before you speak." Seeing that the old man was angry, Ye Yuming also blamed Ye Huiling, and then looked at the old man and said, "Father, let's ask Tian'er again. Maybe Ling'er really sensed it wrong. She sensed the breath of the ancient warrior, but it was not the person next to Liu Xun, but someone else. This possibility is not impossible."
When Ye Huiling heard Ye Yuming's reproach, she fell silent. She had always been very calm, but when the topic came up about Liu Xun, she couldn't calm down. Ye Huiling shook her head and began to adjust her mood.
Ye Tian recounted the process of the meeting and his encounter with Liu Xun. After listening, Ye Hongbo nodded. He glanced at Ye Huiling. Although he didn't say anything, he had doubts in his heart.
He knew his granddaughter. Ye Huiling was not the kind of person who would bluff, let alone joke about such a big thing! And the ancient warrior and the double pupil person didn't say anything right? Is this possible? It was obviously very strange.
"The methods of ancient warriors are beyond our comprehension. Let's not mention this matter from today on, just pretend it never happened." Ye Hongbo said softly, and after he finished speaking, Ye Huiling and Ye Tian stopped talking.
Ye Hongbo walked towards the inner room after he finished speaking. He knew that Ye Huiling could not have sensed it wrongly, so in this case, it was that the ancient warrior did not want to be exposed! Since he did not want to be exposed, he could not force him. After all, the thoughts of the ancient warriors were not something that ordinary people could figure out.
"I'll go out for a while." Ye Huiling left the room after saying this. Ye Tian frowned but didn't say anything. Ye Yuming looked at Ye Tian and said, "Get ready and come with me to attend the meeting of the nine great families tomorrow."
"Okay." Ye Tian's expression became serious when he heard that. This meeting was not like any other corporate meeting, because it was the highlight of the family's comeback, and all participants were direct members of the family.
At the same time, the side branches of the eight great families returned home and vaguely expressed the proceedings of the meeting. Compared with the process of the meeting, the side branches paid more attention to the conversation between Ye Tian and Liu Xun, and they also told all of this to the direct descendants of the clan.
"Ye Tian is chatting up Liu Xun? Who is this Liu Xun? Is he from the Liu family?" Zhang Shaoze from the Zhang family also laughed after hearing the words from the side branch. He shook his head secretly and walked to the side.
Even if he was from the Liu family, Ye Tian would not lower his status to chat with him. Does this mean that Liu Xun is a direct descendant of the Liu family? But what a joke, the direct descendants of the Liu family have been dispersed, and there is only an eighty-year-old old man.
This also means that the Liu family is about to decline, and Zhang Shaoze's statement that Liu Xun is the direct descendant of the Liu family is just a joke. He and Ye Tian are childhood friends and have always had a good relationship, so if Zhang Shaoze wants to know about Liu Xun, Ye Tian will definitely tell him.
But Zhang Shaoze did not ask Ye Tian, because he just regarded this chat as a prank and did not take it seriously.
The collateral branches of other families also told the direct lineage about this matter, but they all ignored it. Because there is no such a coincidence in the world, Liu Xun cannot be a direct lineage of the Liu family, and even if he is, the nine major families will not take it seriously.
Liu family? If it was sixty years ago, it would still make the nine great families fearful! But in the world family war sixty years ago, the Liu family was also dragged into it. Although it is unknown why, after that war, the Liu family was seriously injured and almost all of their direct descendants died! Even those who were not dead disappeared from the world without any news.
That battle was kept secret from the aristocratic families, and the new generation of direct descendants did not know the cause and process of the battle! But that family war was listed as a forbidden topic! Even the heads of the nine aristocratic families did not want to mention it too much.
"The Liu family? The Liu family is now like a grasshopper in autumn. They won't be able to jump for much longer." A direct member of the Yang family said disdainfully.
In fact, he was right. The Liu family now only had an eighty-year-old old man left in the lineage. Without the lineage inheritance, it was only a matter of time before the family perished.
"Shut up!" The words of the Yang family's direct descendant happened to be heard by the head of the Yang family. When he heard this, for some reason, he also sighed.
But his eyes turned cold, and he said to the people behind him: "According to the family rules, Yang Cheng will be punished with fifty strokes of the cane! Execute immediately! From now on, anyone who dares to talk about the survival of the Liu family will be punished with a cane at the least, or be removed from the family tree and have his family status revoked!"
"The head of the family..." The direct descendant named Yang Cheng also changed his face when he heard this. Fifty strokes of the cane, this is not the kind of thing that happens in TV dramas where you can get away with it after a beating! It's really a torn flesh, and the person will be half dead.
"Hmph!" The head of the Yang family snorted coldly and walked forward, but a young man behind him stopped. He was the eldest son of the Yang family, the grandson of the current head of the Yang family, Yang Zitong.
Yang Zitong was born handsome and strong. With a height of 1.82 meters and a strong and well-proportioned body, he was enough to charm a lot of girls.
"A man should be responsible. If you say something you shouldn't, you should be prepared to accept the consequences of it! Remember, think before you speak in the future." After saying this, Yang Zitong followed the footsteps of the head of the Yang family.
A few minutes later, in the Yang family compound, there were muffled sounds of beatings and screams...
Liu Xun chatted with Wang Yikai and Di Yi for more than half an hour, and the three of them returned to their rooms. Just when Liu Xun was about to take a break, the phone suddenly rang.
"Could it be Binghuo?" Liu Xun remembered that Binghuo said he would be back in three days, but today was the third day.
But when he took out his cell phone, Liu Xun knew it was not Binghuo, because he knew the number, it was Ye Huiling's number.
"Hello, Miss Ye, what's the matter?" When Liu Xun saw Ye Huiling's call, the first person he thought of was Ye Tian, so in order to find out who Ye Tian was, he also pressed the answer button.
"Where are you? I'll come find you. I have something to tell you." Ye Huiling went straight to the point. Liu Xun frowned slightly, but still told her the hotel and room he was in.
When Ye Huiling heard that Liu Xun was in the hotel, her cheeks turned red for some reason. She felt it was a little ridiculous that she would go to the hotel to find Liu Xun. If she didn't know the truth, she would think that something had happened between the two of them.
But when I remembered that I was the one who asked the question first, I just said, "Okay, I'll be there in half an hour."
About half an hour later, Ye Huiling also knocked on Liu Xun's door, and Liu Xun opened the door and invited Ye Huiling in. At this time, he also felt a little awkward. This single man and a single woman were in the same room, and in a hotel, the atmosphere was a little ambiguous.
"Where is the person who was with you in the coffee shop last time? Why did you hide your aura?" Ye Huiling went straight to the point, and there was a hint of resentment in her eyes as she looked at Liu Xun.
She originally wanted to improve Liu Xun's status quickly, and then let her grandfather see Liu Xun's potential! Ye Huiling had a good impression of Liu Xun, so she did this, but she didn't know it was because of the peach blossom disaster.
Ye Huiling really didn't want to be in a marriage like a transaction between aristocratic families! The most important thing for a person to live is to live out his or her own life. If a person can't even decide his or her own marriage, what kind of freedom is that? This life is ruined.
"This... I can't explain it clearly. He is not a doll, he also has his own ideas." Liu Xun answered perfunctorily. At this point, he also looked at Ye Huiling and then said: "By the way, do you know Ye Tian?"
Ye Huiling nodded and said casually: "Of course, he is my brother, what's wrong?"
"... "Liu Xun was stunned for a moment. Ye Tian was Ye Huiling's younger brother, so why did he have such hostility towards him? Although he was puzzled, he couldn't continue to ask, so he could only say "Oh" softly.
"What do you think about the matter of the direct lineage of the Liu family that I told you about last time?" Ye Huiling said softly. At present, Di Yi did not want to reveal his identity, so Ye Huiling could only think of another way to make her grandfather recognize Liu Xun.
"The Liu family is not fools." Liu Xun shook his head and smiled, without expressing his opinion.
"Risks and opportunities always coexist. This is the Liu family's address. I'll leave it here for you. It's up to you to decide what to choose." After Ye Huiling finished speaking, she stood up and walked towards the door.
Liu Xun did not try to persuade him to stay. He just looked at a note on the table, then walked out and knocked on Di Yi and Wang Yikai's doors.
