Chapter 19: The Covenant
The Ye family hall was terrifyingly silent, because the face of the head of the family, Ye Gan, was very heavy, and no one dared to touch the mold, so everyone chose to be silent.
"Don't you want to say something?" Ye Qian spoke, but his tone was unusually calm, his gaze swept over the faces of everyone in the hall, and those who were swept by his gaze couldn't help but shudder, and their hearts were worried.
"Father, in the end, we have no choice in this matter, so there is no way back. Ye Bofeng said stiffly, then looked at Ye Chen, and said, "Ye Chen promised Lin Yifei to compete in the ring at noon three days later, and the winner will be known without a fight this time." Not only did he not change anything by doing this, but he also lost the face of our Ye family. At that time, Xin'er will still marry Lin Yifei, and our Ye family will also become the laughing stock of Qingyang Town. ”
"The second brother said very well, this time Ye Chen didn't know the height of the sky, and he impulsively agreed to Lin Yifei's challenge, which simply gave the Lin family a chance to slap our Ye family in the face. This is equivalent to sticking out his face for people to beat, which is really stupid!" Ye Ming also stood up, glanced at Ye Chen with a sneer, and said with a serious face: "Grandpa, you shouldn't have let this wasted person who had lost all his strength come to the family hall at that time, and our Ye family would not be ridiculed in three days!"
Ye Gan's eyes widened, and he slapped the table with a "bang", almost cracking the table, and his true power surged out, making everyone tremble. "Bastards! You are simply a bunch of bastards! Where is your backbone? Is it that years of pampering have made you soft bones, look at your slave appearance, if this continues, our Ye family will be driven out of Qingyang Town sooner or later, or even exterminated!"
Ye Qian was simply furious, Zhenli broke his hairband, his hair shrank gray, and he lowered his head and didn't dare to squeak again. "Get out! you guys get out of here immediately!" Ye Gan roared angrily, so frightened that the Ye family and the others quickly exited the hall, leaving only Ye Chen, his father and sister. After those people from the Ye family left the hall, their voices were immediately heard outside, some mocking, some laughing, and some sighing.
"With a waste like him, he dares to fight with Lin Yifei in the ring, it's like looking for death! However, it's okay to die, we don't have to worry about him embarrassing our Ye family in the future, and he also saves food...... this is Ye Ming's voice. "I think Ye Chen is really dead this time, although he sometimes feels that he is a shame for the Ye family after becoming a waster, but he is still a member of our Ye family, and I still feel a little unbearable when I think that he only has three days to live. ”
"If I hadn't raised it myself, I would have come to this point. Our entire family has no way to take the Lin family, but he, a person who has lost all his cultivation, wants to be stronger, who can be blamed for this, he just asked for it. ”
"Yes, if Xin'er and Lin Yifei marry, the Lin family will not fight for us everywhere. Now that Ye Chen is making such a fuss, in the future, I think those people in the Lin family will have to give us small shoes, all of this is due to Ye Chen, and we deserve to die. ”
"It can make the family better, in exchange for the peace and security of the family, what is it to sacrifice a female disciple of the family's lineage? The funny thing is that Ye Chen insisted on stopping it regardless of life and death, and he also offended the Lin family!"
Immediately afterwards, the voices of other cousins and uncles also came from a distance, and since the hall was quiet, the sound was small but could be heard clearly. From his voice, Ye Chen knew that the first sentence of the last four sentences was said by his cousin Ye Han, the second sentence was said by his cousin Ye Keer, and the last two sentences were said by his uncle and cousin Ye Qing. Hearing these words, Ye Chen's heart was like a fire burning, but his face didn't show much of it. However, his grandfather Xiao Gan, who was standing in front of him, gritted his teeth and gurgled loudly, if those people were here now, Ye Chen believed that his grandfather Xiao Qian would probably smoke a few big ear scrapers.
"Grandpa, if it's okay, Xin'er and I will retreat first. Seeing that Xiao Qian's face was gloomy and he didn't speak, Ye Chen said in a low voice, he was punched in the abdomen, and he still had convulsions and pain. "Wait!" Ye Qian called Ye Chen's and Ye Xin'er, who were about to leave, and then looked at Ye Chen silently for a long time. From Ye Gan's eyes, Ye Chen saw a long-lost look of appreciation, this kind of look had not been seen in Ye Gan's eyes for four years.
"Xin'er, you help your brother to sit down and rest for a while, grandpa will come soon. Ye Qian left such a sentence, and then strode away. After a while, Xiao Qian returned to the family hall, stretched out his hand in front of Ye Chen, and said, "Child, take it, in just three days, only Ning Yuan Dan can let you break through to the first level of the Tongmai Realm." The time is too short, even if there are a lot of cultivation resources, it will be too late. If you can increase your strength by one point, you will not lose so ugly even if you lose. ”
Ye Chen looked at the cherry-sized turquoise pill in his grandfather Ye Qian's hand, and he didn't know what it was like for a while, this was the first time the family had given him the pill in four years. Ye Chen knew that it was not that his grandfather valued himself again, but to put it bluntly, he just took pity on himself. And I don't want to lose too badly, I can't even take the other party's move, that would be too embarrassing for the Ye family. "Thank you, grandpa!" Ye Chen said in a low voice, silently taking the Ning Yuan Dan in Ye Qian's hand. Ye Qian glanced at Ye Chen deeply, turned around and left the family hall, shaking his head and sighing on the way. He naturally didn't believe that Ye Chen could defeat that Lin Yifei, the difference in realm was too great, and it was impossible to compete.
"Brother, I don't want you to fight for Xin'er!" Ye Xin'er looked at Xiao Fan with big smart eyes, tears quickly condensed in her eyes, and said in a tone full of pleading: "Brother, Xin'er will fight Lin Yifei on behalf of her brother." Wait until you become strong in the future, brother, can you protect Xin'er?" "Xin'er, listen to your brother. Ye Chen took his sister's hand, looked serious and serious, and said, "In the past four years, my brother has not done anything for you, but you have often clashed with Ye Ming and them in order to protect your brother." This time, would it be okay for my brother to do something for my sister
"Not good!" Ye Xin'er shook her head, her heart was full of emotion, and she said sadly: "Brother is really lost, how can you be Lin Yifei's opponent, Xin'er doesn't want you to be bullied by that guy!" "Okay, don't talk about this, I have already made an agreement with Lin Yifei, three days later, the ring will be contested, and tomorrow the entire Qingyang Town will know, even if it is too late to change your mind now." Xin'er, you go back to your room first, and my brother will try what effect this Ning Yuan Pill will have after taking it. ”
"No, I'm going to look at you. Ye Xin'er was coquettish and looked at Ye Chen pitifully. Ye Chen pinched her face and said with a smile: "Obedient, go back." "Hmph!" Ye Xin'er burst into laughter, wrinkled her delicate little nose, and said angrily: "People are not children anymore, why do you pinch people's faces." ”
"Who made you a sister, you won't be obedient anymore, and my brother will pinch it again. Ye Chen deliberately scared her, and stretched out his hand to her face as soon as he spoke. Ye Xin'er's delicate body dodged in a flash, and then she grinned, revealing two deep dimples, and said, "Okay, okay, Xin'er just go back." Brother, you have to rest well, and it's not too late to cultivate when your injuries are healed. ”
"Got it, go, go. Ye Xin'er left, Ye Chen looked at her distant back with doting eyes, and when her figure completely disappeared from sight, the doting color on Ye Chen's face also disappeared, and he turned around to look at his father, who was still lying on the seat as if nothing had happened. Ye Chen walked over quietly, looked at the messy face, and said in a deep voice: "At noon in three days, maybe you will never see me again." I don't know if you also think that you are ashamed to live like me, or if you don't care about this at all. Now can you tell me who my mother is, where she is, why I haven't seen her since I was a child, and you don't say a word about it. ”
After waiting for a few breaths, seeing that his father still didn't say a word, Ye Chen sighed deeply, was disappointed, and turned around and left the family hall. When his figure was about to disappear at the door of the hall, Ye Boyan, who was half-lying on the seat, opened his eyes slightly, and his traces were very tricky.
This set of palm techniques specializes in the opponent's heart, with the purpose of attacking the opponent's heart, not only the trajectory of the attack is tricky and weird, but the palm power of the hit has penetration and cracking power. In the same rank, if you are hit, you will suffer a heavy blow if you don't die. Ye Chen comprehended the essence of this heart-destroying palm, and displayed this set of martial arts to the fullest with one move. Between the footsteps, the body moved, the palms continued to vibrate, the palms hit a big tree in front of him, sawdust splashed, and the sound of banging was endless.
The tree swayed, and the trunk was covered with shallow handprints. Ye Chen gathered his momentum and stood, a gust of wind blew, and the sawdust in the handprint on the trunk flew down, and the seemingly intact trunk had actually been shattered by the palm force. "The palm power of the Heart-Destroying Palm is almost all based on the power of shattering, and this kind of martial art is a bit ruthless, which can be described as a palm killing. However, whether it is a dip in clothes or a heart-wrenching palm, these two sets of martial arts are unarmed martial arts. There are two sets of short-range martial arts in the Lin family's martial arts, and Lin Yifei's cultivation is the fifth in the Tongmai Realm, which is one weight higher than me, if you fight me with weapons again, I am afraid it will be very difficult. ”
Ye Chen thought silently, feeling that it was best to cultivate a martial art that could attack from a distance, so that he could succeed in the reverse attack and suppress Lin Yifei, whose realm was one level higher than himself. "What martial arts skills in the family martial arts pavilion are what I need the most?" Ye Chen recalled with his eyes closed, he hadn't entered the martial arts pavilion for four years, and many of the martial arts in it had forgotten their names, and he still didn't remember them after thinking about it for a long time. "It's better to go to the martial arts pavilion tomorrow to have a look, there are a lot of martial arts in the family, and it shouldn't be a problem to find a martial arts book that meets my requirements." I will cultivate here today, and I will go to the Family Martial Pavilion tomorrow morning. ”
With the decision, Ye Chen didn't think much about it anymore, flew up and jumped on the bluestone of daily cultivation and sat down, and began to breathe in, and the vitality of heaven and earth gathered.
