Chapter 911: Unfilial
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Ye Lingtian, don’t use such words with me. I, Ye Chen, have never treated you as a servant but as a brother!”
“As such, think of this as a way for me to show my gratitude!”
Ye Lingtian’s eyes reddened when he heard that and he clenched his fists tightly. For the Hall Master, he would brave seas of fire and swords!
Ye Chen led the way with the Fire Cloud Deer trailing behind him. Soon, they arrived at the main gate of the residence.
There were two saint king realm cultivators guarding the entrance.
“Who are you?”
The gatekeepers pointed their spears at them, looking extremely vigilant.
Ye Lingtian was about to speak when Ye Chen took a step forward and said, “Don’t tell me you don’t even recognize your Young Master, Ye Lingtian? Kneel down and welcome him!”
Ye Chen unleashed his boundless spiritual pressure and killing intent. As someone who walked the path of slaughter, his killing intent far surpassed what normal cultivators could bear, and terrified the gatekeepers.
They knelt down!
One of the gatekeepers recognized Ye Lingtian and exclaimed, “Young Master, you…” You’re finally back!”
Ye Lingtian nodded. “What happened to the family? Why have I heard that Father’s coffin hasn’t been buried yet?”
When the gatekeeper heard this question, his face instantly turned pale, and he did not know what to say.
“Young Master, this matter is hard to talk about…”
Ye Chen glanced at the gatekeeper’s hesitant expression and felt that something was wrong. He gave Ye Lingtian a look and they went to the hall together.
When Ye Chen and Ye Lingtian arrived at the hall, they were stunned. A coffin laid quietly landed in the hall!
More importantly, there were countless sword scars on the coffin, and it had obviously suffered tremendous damage.
The dead should be respected and revered, yet the coffin was being treated like this here!
Ye Lingtian’s body trembled. He then rushed to the coffin and opened it slightly to look inside. He knelt in front of the coffin, and the emotions and tears that he had been suppressing for a long time finally erupted.
“Father, Lingtian has been unfilial!”
Bang bang bang!
Kowtow after kowtow!
Ye Chen did not stop him. When Ye Lingtian opened the coffin, Ye Chen had also noticed the latter’s father’s condition. The corpse was covered in wounds, and the wounds were shocking. To an extent, it could be said that the corpse was incomplete, and Ye Lingtian had initially not been able to tell that it was his father.
Thus, this was the only way he could vent his emotions.
Perhaps it was because the commotion was too loud, two people walked into the hall from the rear entrance.
It was a woman in her forties or fifties, but she looked quite young despite her age.
There was a young man standing beside the woman. His facial features were similar to Ye Lingtian’s, so it was likely that they were brothers. This person’s cultivation level was much higher than Ye Lingtian’s, having reached the seventh or eighth level of the saint king realm.
When the woman saw Ye Lingtian, she obviously recognized him. She was slightly surprised, but then she sneered.
“How dare you come back, you unfilial son!”
Ye Lingtian stopped crying and looked up at the woman coldly. “Why did my father die? Also, after such a long time, why hasn’t he been buried? My father has treated you well, yet you have allowed this to happen!”
There was a trace of anger in his voice. This woman was the one his father remarried.
He should have called her Second Mother, but Ye Lingtian could not bring himself to do so after what this woman had done to him in the past.
Furthermore, seeing his father’s current condition, how could he not be angry?
“What kind of attitude is that?” The woman snorted coldly. “Also, what I do has nothing to do with you!”
“Didn’t you go to fulfill your ancestor’s last wish? Why are you still so weak? Do you really think that going to Huaxia would change anything? Did you really think you’d find anything there?”
Then, the woman noticed Ye Chen and asked, “Who is this kid? Who allowed you to bring outsiders in?”
“What?” Ye Lingtian was about to retort when he saw the other party’s attitude. However, Ye Chen took the lead. “If you speak to Young Master like that again, you’ll have to bear the consequences!”
When the woman heard the words “young master”, her disdain became more obvious. “Yo, Ye Lingtian, you’re really something. You went to Huaxia and brought back a dog.”
The woman then looked at Ye Chen and said aggressively, “When I’m talking, slaves like you should not interrupt! Kneel down!”
Ye Lingtian’s expression changed drastically.
He appreciated the Hall Master’s good intentions, but he would never allow anyone to insult the Hall Master!
“Qiu Wanjun, shut the f*ck up!”
He slammed his palm on the ground and got up. Then he slapped the woman fiercely, and she fell to the ground in a sorry state.
“Lingyun, as the current head of the family, are you not going to do anything?” She looked at her son angrily.
Ye Lingyun’s face was full of arrogance.
“Men!” he shouted, “Chase these two b*stards out!”
Ye Lingtian’s eyes widened as he looked at his immature half-brother in front of him. This person was actually the current head of the family?
When Ye Lingtian left that year, his father once said that no matter what, the position of the family head would be his!
This was because he had left the family to look for Ye Chen for the sake of the Ye Clan’s fortune!
His father would never break this promise!
Obviously, many things had happened during the time he was away, including his father’s death and the transfer of the position of the family head.
After hearing Ye Lingyun’s shout, more than ten experts rushed into the hall. These were saint king and origin realm experts!
Ye Lingyun pulled out a chair and sat down before asking a servant to bring him a cup of tea.
At the same time, he rested his feet on a corner of the coffin.
How contemptuous!
Ye Lingtian was completely enraged. However, just as he was about to take action, Ye Lingyun said, “You haven’t been back for a long time, so there are things you probably don’t know.”
“Firstly, just as my mother said, the family is now under my control. Don’t even think about fighting for power with me. You’re not qualified!”
“Secondly, you have been expelled from the family genealogy and are no longer a member of the family, so get lost! An unfilial son like you who hasn’t returned for years will only be a disgrace to the Ye family!”
“Thirdly, there’s no need to bury this old man’s body. No one is allowed to bury him until that thing is found!”
“This old fellow refused to tell us where that thing was when he was alive, which caused us to suffer at the hands of those people. Even in death he causes problems for me. He should have died a long time ago!”
Ye Chen and Ye Lingtian were completely enraged when they heard those words. Was this person still a human being?
Ye Lingtian took a step forward and pushed Ye Lingyun’s foot away.
“Ye Lingyun, isn’t he your father?” he asked, enunciating each word clearly. “You’ll be punished by the heavens if you do this!”
“What?” Ye Lingyun was a little angry when he saw that a piece of trash dared to mess with him. He ordered, “Break their limbs and throw them out!”
