Purple Cloud City, one of the nine sub-cities under Shenlong City, has a large population and is quite prosperous.

In Purple Cloud City, all forces are entrenched in it, dragons and snakes are mixed, and in the end, the only forces that can override all the forces and control the entire Purple Cloud City are the only three forces.

The Ye family, the Bai family, and the Qiu family.

If other forces want to develop in the city, they must also choose to rely on one of them.

……

Ye family.

"It's been five years, five years since I came into this world. "In the delicate attic, a man stands against a railing, overlooking the view below.

This is a young man of about twenty years old, wearing a white robe, long hair falling from a shawl, and a handsome face, like a handsome man. However, at this time, there was bitterness on the corner of his mouth, but helplessness and unwillingness flashed in his clear eyes.

He is Ye Ming, but everyone doesn't know that the real Ye Ming has disappeared five years ago, and it is this soul that has traveled through to replace him.

In his previous life, on Earth, he had just graduated and was full of ambition and wanted to show his skills, but he didn't expect to give up his life in order to save a pedestrian on the road. Fortunately, he was an orphan in his previous life, and he didn't have anything to worry about after all.

Finally, in my mind, a beautiful face emerged, and then gradually disappeared with a sigh.

His consciousness fell into darkness, and when he woke up again, he was already in this body, and after absorbing the memories of the original owner, he dragged his seriously injured body back to the Ye family.

"Young master, the head of the family has something to do with you, please go to the council room. A crisp voice sounded in Ye Ming's ears, interrupting Ye Ming's thoughts.

Ye Ming turned around and saw a girl in Tsing Yi waiting with her head bowed on the side.

"I'll go over here. "This girl in Tsing Yi is one of the maids of the head of the family, and in addition to the main vein, the Ye family has many branches and branches. For all the children of the Ye family, whether you are born in the main vein or born in the branch vein, they are all equal, and if you want to have a higher status, you only rely on strength.

Let's just say that three years ago, the old family master Ye Xuanji Shouyuan died of exhaustion, and it was the strongest person in the Ye family who took over the position of the head of the family, Ye Zhen. Tracing his origins is just a side branch.

In the Ye family, the strong are respected! This is also the eternal truth of the entire Thirteen Prefectures of Lingxu.

Ye Ming walked all the way, there are many exquisite attics on the road, the clear water is murmuring on the stone mountain, the beautiful scenery is everywhere, the financial resources to be spent on each scenery are difficult to imagine in the outside world, and the strong heritage of the Ye family can be seen.

Soon Ye Ming came to an attic door, and there was a middle-aged man standing on either side of the door, guarding the surroundings with a serious expression. Seeing Ye Ming, he just nodded and ignored it.

Ye Ming didn't care about stepping into the door and walked into the hall.

On the grand and wide hall, the head of the family, Ye Zhen, sat above, and there were seven or eight people standing on both sides, Ye Ming had just stepped into the hall, and everyone in the hall had their eyes on Ye Ming.

"What's going on?" Ye Ming's footsteps paused slightly, the people in this hall are all the people in charge of the Ye family, it is no exaggeration to say that the Ye family is going to shake it casually, usually everyone is rare to see today, but I don't know why they all gathered together.

"Look. Ye Zhen looked like he was in his thirties and forties, wearing a purple-gold robe, with a face that was not smiling, and a chair was placed on the side as soon as Ye Zhen's words fell.

Ye Ming didn't know the situation at the moment, so he could only sit honestly.

"Ye Ming, I heard that you have a good relationship with Qiu Yue of the Qiu family?" Ye Zhen looked at Ye Ming and said slowly.

Ye Ming was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Ye Zhen to ask such a question, and he didn't have time to think about it and replied casually: "Qiu Yue? ”

Ye Ming, the great name of the Qiu family Qiuyue, knew that the Qiu family was one of the three overlords of Ziyun City, and Qiu Yue was the daughter of the head of the family, and her appearance was beautiful and her talent was even better.

Hearing this, Ye Zhen said with a smile: "I don't believe this, but someone from the Qiu family is here today." ”

Ye Ming frowned, he was indeed telling the truth, he and Qiu Yue had only met a few times by chance at the banquet, and they didn't even have more than ten words of conversation, so they couldn't be considered acquainted.

"Why are people from the Qiu family here?" Ye Ming asked.

"Propose. Ye Zhen looked at him and said in a condensed voice.

"Propose marriage!?" Ye Ming was shocked, a bad premonition appeared in his heart, and he said in a deep voice word by word: "Propose marriage to whom!"

"I have asked you Ye Ming, today the head of the Qiu family, Qiu Yi, came to the Ye family in person and said that you and your daughter Qiu Yue have mutual admiration, and I hope you can join the Qiu family. Ye Zhen explained.

"Into the fold!" waves of unsettled waves rose again, and as soon as these two words entered Ye Ming's ears, they seemed to be like thunder exploding, which made his mind chaotic. Whether in the past life or in this life, it is a matter of detrimental dignity to men, but any man with some self-esteem will probably not agree to this kind of request.

Ye Ming shook his head, looked directly at Ye Zhen and asked in disbelief: "Is it a mistake, I have never known Qiu Yue, how could it be possible for me to join the Qiu family?"

"Qiu Yi said your name in person, it's impossible to be mistaken, it doesn't matter if you are not familiar with Qiu Yue, Qiu Yue is the pearl of the Qiu family, and it is also your blessing to be able to take a fancy to you. Ye Zhen said lightly, with indifference.

"But. ”

"Okay, Ye Ming, don't say more, the matter has been decided, I'm just informing you, I think the elders have no opinion. Ye Ming was about to speak, but Ye Ming interrupted him impatiently, and looked at Ye Ming with a pair of eyes slightly narrowed. Suddenly, Ye Ming felt an indescribable pressure fall on him, but he couldn't say anything under this coercion.

Ye Ming clenched his fists, his nails embedded in the flesh, and a few wisps of blood spilled out.

"Haha, this is a happy event for the Ye family, I don't know when the wedding date is?"

How could the elders have opinions, in their opinion, Qiu Yue can take a fancy to Ye Ming, it is indeed the Ye family who has taken advantage, although it is a bit shameless to say that going out to join the Ye family of the Qiu family, but the benefits promised by the Qiu family are not worth mentioning.

Ye Zhen also wondered in his heart, he didn't know why Qiu Yue fell in love with Ye Ming, and it could only be summed up in Ye Ming's handsome appearance.

"The engagement banquet will be held in seven days, Ye Ming, you go back and prepare first. Ye Zhen waved his hand to let Ye Ming leave.

Ye Ming slowly walked out of the hall with an expressionless face.

Ye Zhen and the elders didn't care about Ye Ming's inner thoughts, from their point of view, as long as it was beneficial to the family, sacrificing oneself was nothing, not to mention that this person was still Ye Ming.

After Ye Ming left, a gray-haired elder said disdainfully: "This kind of thing, where can he be allowed to object." ”

"What Elder Ye Fu said is that if he Ye Ming is still the Ye Ming of ten years ago, let alone let him join the Qiu family, even if his Qiu family is crying and wants to marry Qiu Yue to my Ye family, my Ye family also has to think about it. The other elder chuckled.

"It's also a pity, who would have thought that a genius who would be at the peak of Qi Condensation in ten years would not be able to break through to the Yuan Refining Realm for ten years. "Some people are angry with regret.

"He's not a genius now, and he's pretty much scrapped. Ye Fu sneered.

Ye Zhen frowned, and saw that what the elders said was getting more and more difficult to hear, so he spoke: "Okay, how can I say that Ye Ming is also a member of my Ye family, don't say more, let's discuss the cooperation with the Qiu family, after all, this time it was the Qiu family who took the initiative to ask for marriage, and we must plan well and strive for the greatest benefit." ”

Everyone didn't say much when they saw the head of the family talking, but Ye Fu lowered his head and sneered and said to himself: "He is not a member of the Ye family." ”

In fact, Ye Ming did not have the blood of the Ye family, but the head of the old family, Ye Xuanji, picked it up and brought it back to the Ye family when he went out once.

Ye Ming has no heirs, he treats Ye Ming as his own, and vigorously cultivates Ye Ming, Ye Ming does not seem to have lived up to Ye Xuanji's expectations, and at the age of ten, he condensed the peak of the tenth layer of qi, and he was only one step away from stepping into the Refining Yuan Realm.

This kind of cultivation talent shook the entire Purple Cloud City, and even the distant main city was full of people who came to the Ye family, and made an agreement that once Ye Ming stepped into the Refining Yuan Realm, he could enter the main city to cultivate!

You must know that the strength of the main city is strong, and there is unfathomable sect support behind it, once you enter it, it is tantamount to ascending to the sky in one step!

For a while, the name of Ye Ming, the Qi Lin of the Ye family, spread throughout the entire Purple Cloud City, and countless people were amazed, envious, and jealous.

A year later, when Ye Ming was about to break through the Refining Yuan Realm, all directions moved, and once he successfully broke through, Ye Ming would be the youngest Refining Yuan Realm cultivator in the history of Purple Cloud City.

Under the gaze of countless eyes, this breakthrough ended in failure. The Ye family didn't care that it was already very difficult to break through to the Refining Yuan Realm at the tenth layer of condensation, and it was normal to fail once or twice.

What everyone didn't expect was that this failure was just the beginning, and Ye Ming's breakthrough failed again a year later!

The third time was still a failure.

Fourth ...... Fail.

Fifth ...... Fail.

……

9th ...... Fail!

After nine years, Ye Ming had broken through a total of nine times, all of which had failed, and when countless people sighed, they had to believe that the genius who had shocked the entire Purple Cloud City had fallen.

At the age of nineteen, he is still a tenth-level cultivator of condensation, but this level is not as good as most people, how heavy was jealousy before, and now how much ridicule is heavy. Ye Ming is also named as waste.

Because of the huge amount of resources that Ye Ming has spent in the past ten years, other children of the Ye family have inevitably been affected, Ye Xuanji is still fine, and no one dares to say anything, since Ye Xuanji died three years ago, the rest of the Ye family is more and more dissatisfied with Ye Ming.

Ye Ming's cultivation resources are also gradually decreasing, after all, Ye Ming is like a waste now, if it weren't for Ye Ming's words, I'm afraid Ye Ming wouldn't be able to get any resources.

Now the Qiu family doesn't know what is crazy, they must Ye Ming join the Qiu family, and they have given a lot of benefits, the Ye family is applauding, and they wish that Ye Ming would pack up and leave tomorrow.
