Witnessing the departure of his four younger brothers, Ye Long looked at Ye Feng, whose face was bruised and swollen, with a guilty look in his eyes.
He could not believe that he, a master of the seventh level of Earth Control Realm and the patriarch of the Ye family, would let his own son be beaten severely by a disciple in his own home in front of him.
What a humiliation it was! After his four brothers left, Ye Long spat out a mouthful of blood.
His face was pale and his eyes were sad, and his heart felt as painful as if its flesh was being cut by a knife.
Because Ye Long knew why they came. On the surface, they came under the name of visiting, but in fact they came to find out the truth about him and Ye Feng.
In fact, their beating of Ye Feng was a treacherous scheme that killed two birds with one stone.
On the one hand, it can be seen that Ye Feng is indeed a waste, and on the other hand, it is a test of Ye Long.
If Ye Long's condition really improved, how could he tolerate a disciple of the Ye family hurting his son
There is another more important reason, that is, with these as leverage, they can jointly write a letter to the Ye family elders to remove Ye Long from the position of head of the Ye family.
In addition to the head of the Ye family, there is also a Ye family elders group consisting of three elders.
Generally speaking, the three elders of the Council of Elders would not show up easily unless there was something important. All the affairs of the Ye family were handed over to the head of the family alone.
"Dad! Dad!" Ye Feng saw his father vomiting blood and hurriedly supported his father with a sad expression.
Ye Long's face was filled with sorrow. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said with deep eyes, "Feng'er! I didn't expect your uncles to be so cruel and ruthless in order to get the position of the head of the family. They pushed us into a dead end step by step. Now all the hopes of the Ye family are on your third brother's shoulders!"
"Dad! Have you notified my third brother to come home?" Ye Feng asked in surprise.
The Ye family has three brothers. In addition to Ye Wuzhi and Ye Feng, who were previously kicked out of the family by Ye Long, there is also a third brother, Ye Qing.
When my third younger brother Ye Qing was five years old, he was spotted by a master. When he wrote to me the year before last, he said that he had already reached the Palm of the Sea realm. Another year has passed, and maybe he will reach the Palm of the Earth realm.
Ye Long nodded silently, because after today's scene, he already knew how dangerous the situation was.
He was seriously ill and could no longer fight. Ye Feng, the only hope, had just been defeated by another disciple.
When selecting the head of the Ye family, one must not only consider the level of martial arts, but also the offspring.
Ye Wuen's revenge has made him notorious.
It was originally thought that Ye Feng defeated Ye Wu, became a triple-level warrior, and revealed his potential in martial arts, but unexpectedly, it was a powerful pill that defeated Ye Wu.
Therefore, Ye Long wanted to recall his only third son Ye Qing, hoping that Ye Qing could surpass all others and defend his position as the head of the Ye family.
Ye Feng wanted to tell his father the details of the matter, but his father waved his hand and walked away into the inner courtyard.
Three days ago, something as big as Ye Wu happened in the Ye family, but my father didn't even notify my third brother to come back.
Now that his third brother has been informed, Ye Feng feels the seriousness of the matter.
If things had not gotten out of control, my father would never have let my third brother come back so easily.
Precisely because the position of the head of the Ye family has been threatened, even if Ye Feng tells his father the truth.
He was still only a third-level Palm Wave warrior, and the family election meeting would be held in three days.
Even if one is a martial arts genius, even if one practices day and night without sleep, one cannot reach the fourth level.
The descendants of the other four branches of the Ye family who participated in the election all had martial arts skills above the fourth level. It was said that the eldest uncle’s son Ye Fan had already reached the fifth level!
Because of these, Ye Feng did not force himself to tell his story.
Just at this moment, a disciple of the Ye family hurriedly ran to the living room, and seeing Ye Feng, the disciple said with a face full of grievance: "Young Master, Young Master, something has happened, something has happened!"
Ye Feng recognized the disciple who came in at a glance. He was Ye Qi, the son of Ye Meng, the Ye family's steward, and also a martial artist of the second level of martial arts.
Ye Qi has always been loyal and honest, and never causes trouble. Now he feels so aggrieved, something big must have happened.
Thinking of this, Ye Feng asked in astonishment: "Ye Qi, what happened!"
At this moment, Ye Qi saw Ye Feng like a child seeing an adult, and began to sob and said, "Master, Master, Liu San's pharmacy in the city said today that they would not sell us the medicine that Master needs. It was fine a few days ago! Today, when my father and I went to the pharmacy, they not only refused to sell us the medicine, but also detained my father and said a lot of ugly things about Master and Master."
"What? There is such a thing! Do they still take the Ye family seriously? Tell me, what nasty things did they say!"
Ye Qi looked horrified and stammered, "They said the master was a sickly person, and they said you, the young master, were a useless person! They said they would not sell medicine to two useless people!"
"How ridiculous! How ridiculous! A small medicine shop actually dared to climb over the head of the Ye family. They are so evil. Do they really think that there is no one in my Ye family? Ye Qi, let's go and see how I deal with them."
Ye Feng's face was full of anger. He strode out of the living room and hurried to Liu's pharmacy.
Liu's Pharmacy, herb warehouse in the backyard.
The Liu family pharmacy is a famous pharmacy in Yecheng. Because of its fame, it has three firsts.
The storage of medicinal materials comes first, the variety of medicinal materials comes first, and the preciousness of medicinal materials comes first.
All the prestigious families in Yecheng would buy the medicinal materials they needed from Liu’s pharmacy.
Since Ye Long fell ill, he has been using medicines from Liu's pharmacy.
The warehouse in the backyard of Liu's pharmacy always keeps its door open to facilitate the collection of medicines.
However, today, just after Ye Qi left the medicine shop, the door of the medicine warehouse was suddenly closed. In a corner of the medicine warehouse, three young men were standing.
The three young men looked excited and relaxed.
At this time, a middle-aged man dressed as a servant ran up to the three teenagers and said with his head down, "Three young masters, according to your instructions, the two thousand-year-old poison creatures have been put into the warehouse!"
"Very good! As long as you can get rid of Ye Feng today, I will reward you with 100 taels of gold and ten elixirs. You can leave for now!"
One of the boys, who was slightly shorter in stature, had a proud look on his face. He was Ye Pei, the second son of Ye Feng’s second uncle.
"To be honest, I don't know why Dad did this! Didn't he test Ye Feng's martial arts? Even a disciple could defeat him! And he spent so much elixir and money to buy two thousand-year-old poisons! Isn't this a waste of money? It would be great if he gave us food and drink!"
The tallest boy said with some regret that he was Uncle Ye Feng's second son Ye Lian. He also had another identity, that is, the future consort of Princess Yecheng Yuqin.
"Brother, what you said makes sense. Those elixirs and money are enough to support those people for a lifetime. Ye Feng, that loser, is not worth it. A single disciple can knock him down. He will surely die if we just touch him with one finger!"
The young man who spoke last had a round pendant on the right ear of his fat face. He was Ye Wen, the second son of Ye Feng’s uncle.
Just at this moment, Ye Feng, with an angry face, appeared in Liu's herbal medicine shop.
Ye Qi was right. At first glance, Ye Feng saw the butler tied up and tied to a wooden cylinder in Liu's pharmacy.
"Master! This is unfair! Master, help me!"
Ye Meng, the butler who was tied to a wooden cylinder, saw Ye Feng and sobbed with a look of grievance on his face.
Ye Feng took a big step and entered the pharmacy.
"Ye Qi, untie your father!" Ye Feng stared at the big men in the pharmacy with cold eyes.
Just as Ye Qi ran over to untie Ye Meng's rope, a white-haired old man walked out from the inner door with a haughty look on his face. He glanced at Ye Feng and said, "Stop! It's said that a prince who breaks the law is guilty of the same crime as a commoner. What's more, it's just a guard dog. How dare it steal my medicinal materials under the bright sun? How can I forgive it so easily? Come on! If anyone dares to let this dog go today, he will not be allowed to stay in my Liu family."
He is Liu San, the owner of Liu’s pharmacy.
Because the three firsts of Liu's pharmacy, the several big men who guard the store are not ordinary people either, they are all martial artists of the second and third levels of martial arts.
As Liu San finished speaking, several big men approached the cylinder, staring at Ye Qi with menacing eyes.
Ye Feng saw Liu San's arrogant look and said angrily, "Liu San, you are so bold that you dare to touch anyone from my Ye family."
Liu San smiled sinisterly and said, "Ye family! Of course I know. My father is seriously ill and my son's martial arts skills have been abolished and he was expelled from the family. I guess you are Ye Feng, the eldest son of a martial arts family who was defeated by a disciple!"
Hearing Liu San say these deliberately humiliating things, Ye Feng really wanted to rush forward and chop him with a palm.
When he was about to strike out with his palm, he suddenly froze again.
How did he know that he was defeated by a disciple!
How could a businessman who usually behaves himself suddenly stop selling medicine to the housekeeper and even accuse the housekeeper of stealing!
These are definitely not things a business person who lives in peace would want to or dare to do.
Because of these suspicious points, Ye Feng could only think of one possibility.
That means there must be someone behind Liu San, and maybe that person is his four uncles.
It turned out that he had been hit by a palm strike from a disciple in the Ye family hall before because he was trying to conceal his martial arts skills.
If I were to take action again now, all the previous beatings would be in vain, and my plan to hide my weakness would also fail.
Ye Feng was caught in a difficult situation.
If he didn't rescue the housekeeper and teach them a lesson, the reputation of the Ye family would be ruined in his hands.
The housekeeper stole the medicine! The young master was unable to find out the truth and did not dare to take action in front of the several guards of the medicine shop!
As long as Ye Feng walks out of this pharmacy, the news will spread throughout the entire Ye City.
Not to mention that the security guards would beat Ye Feng to death, even the spit of everyone in Ye City would be enough to drown Ye Feng.
Ye Feng's guess was correct. The reason why Liu San dared to attack the Ye family so openly was indeed because he was instructed by Ye Feng's four uncles.
One hundred taels of gold, one hundred elixirs, and the right to monopolize all the pharmacies in Yecheng.
These are the rewards.
