The headquarter of the Ye clan is located in the prosperous area in the north of the city.
The mansion occupies a very large area, and except for the domestic slaves, all the people living there are members of the direct lineage of the Ye family.
As the foundation of establishing a clan through martial arts, every generation of the direct lineage of the clan selects the best and eliminates the worst.
Even the lowest-level gatekeepers are considered to be elite, and their strength has reached at least the level of the early Yuanling realm.
Such a warrior, if placed in the army, would at least be at the level of a centurion.
At this time, in front of the gate of Ye Mansion.
Two burly men, with long swords on their shoulders, stood majestically on both sides of the palace gate, with a strong imposing manner.
Pedestrians passing by on the street did not dare to look at these two door guards as strong as tigers, their eyes evasive.
However, at this time, there was a young figure walking straight towards Ye Mansion.
The two strong men glanced at Ye Yang with sharp eyes. Seeing that his face was unfamiliar, they immediately shouted:
"stop!"
"This is an important place of the Ye family. No other people are allowed to come near it!"
Their voices were sonorous and powerful, conveying a heart-stopping intimidation.
"My name is Ye Yang, from the Qingyun City branch."
Walking closer, Ye Yang took out a badge without any nonsense.
The badge is small and bronze in color, with a totem and the word "leaf" engraved on it.
This thing symbolizes the identity of the members of the Ye family.
However, the two strong men only glanced at it without even checking. One of them, Shen Ran, said: "The patriarch said that the Ye family has many branches, and the badges can be faked or robbed by others."
"So, this Ye family badge alone cannot prove that you are a blood relative of the Ye family."
"Even if the identity is true and the badge is true, it doesn't rule out that you are of foreign blood adopted by the branch family."
Hearing this, Ye Yang was stunned for a moment.
This is indeed true, but how can you prove it to yourself?
"Don't worry, this device can confirm your identity."
While he was talking, the bald man took out a piece of jade the size of a fist. It had a strange shape and was covered with mysterious runes.
In the center, there is a small sunken hole.
"The method is very simple. Just put your finger into the hole and prick it. If the extracted blood matches, it will be fine."
Hearing the words of the bald man, Ye Yang's eyes flashed with surprise.
This method of testing blood is somewhat similar to the DNA genetic testing in previous lives.
Ye Yang also cooperated with this and directly inserted the index finger of his right hand into the small hole.
The next moment, Ye Yang suddenly felt a sharp needle piercing his finger flesh. At the same time as the pain was felt, some blood was also drawn out.
As the blood seeped into the interior of the jade, the runes on its surface suddenly seemed to be resurrected, slowly squirming and blooming with blood-red light.
"Well, that's it."
Seeing this, the bald man nodded and said: "Anyone who has separated his family is not allowed to wander around after entering the mansion. He must first register in the office in the east courtyard, otherwise he will be expelled from the mansion!"
Ye Yang looked indifferent and walked straight into the door of the house.
Although the other party was just fulfilling his duties and completing the instructions given by his superiors, this kind of treatment made the person who separated the family feel that he was being looked down upon.
The buildings in Ye Mansion are very large and divided into five major areas: east, west, middle, south and north.
The atrium area is the core of the mansion, and the members who live there are all high-ranking members of the family.
There are many corridors in the mansion. Ye Yang glanced around for a while and didn't know which corridor to take to lead to the east courtyard area.
Fortunately, a servant dressed as a servant came over at this time.
"Are you from a separate family? Just go straight to the corridor on the far right in the east courtyard and then turn left."
He looked around and said, "I happen to be busy with something, so you can go alone."
After saying that, the servant ignored Ye Yang and turned around to leave.
Such a arrogant attitude did not take the people of the Ye family into consideration at all.
In his opinion, although the branch family also has the surname of Ye, they are not the owners of the Ye Mansion. Even if they are offended, it will be fine. There is no need to look at his face to flatter him.
"If you are willing to lead the way, this banknote may be yours."
Ye Yang took out a banknote and said calmly.
Hearing this, the slave's steps suddenly stopped, and he couldn't help but look back at the banknote in Ye Yang's hand.
One hundred taels!
When he saw the amount of the banknote, the slave's eyes lit up and he ran over immediately.
"What is the name of this young master of the branch family? What region does he come from?"
His attitude also underwent a 360-degree change, with a smile on his face.
"Qingyun City, Ye Yang."
"It turns out to be Young Master Ye Yang from Qingyun City. I'm here to guide you. Please come this way."
The servant nodded and bowed, acting extremely complimentary under the power of money.
After all, these one hundred taels of silver notes were enough to cover his three months' salary.
He could get this 'huge sum of money' just by showing the way, and he was so happy at the moment.
Looking at the house slave leading the way, Ye Yang raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
If you have money, you will be a grindstone; if you don't have money, you will be a grindstone.
This sentence is extremely useful.
Along the way, Ye Yang's eyes wandered around, taking in the environment of the house.
It must be said that the general family has a solid foundation, and the materials used in every building are of high quality.
Just like the pillars in the corridor, they are all made of dark iron wood.
These black iron trees take a hundred years to grow, are as hard as iron, and are extremely precious.
The cost of each pillar is approximately several hundred taels.
At first glance, based on the length of this corridor alone, there must be at least a hundred pillars.
If corridors in other areas are added, the cost will be huge!
At this time, as I walked to the corner at the end of the corridor, an exciting sound of drills reached my ears.
Ye Yang raised his eyes and looked at the wall not far away. The sound of training came from the other side of the stone wall.
"Every morning, the young masters will do morning exercises at the martial arts training ground in the East Campus."
Noticing Ye Yang's footsteps paused, the house slave smiled, and then thinking about the reward, he reminded in a low voice: "When you pass by the martial arts training ground later, I advise you not to keep staring at the young masters practicing, keep your head down and
We can live in peace and harmony."
Hearing this, Ye Yang curiously asked: "Why?"
The house slave shrugged and said calmly: "Since you asked, don't blame me for having a bad mouth. Of course I look down on you people who have separated families."
"Last night, there were two branch families from Tianling City. They happened to catch the young masters practicing in the evening. They just stood aside and watched, and they made some arrogant comments based on their talents."
"In the end, I was severely humiliated by the young masters and kicked out of the mansion that night."
The division of families in Tianling City?
Ye Yang raised his eyebrows slightly, remembering that the two young men who broke into his house a while ago were from Tianling City.
That arrogant and proud attitude was still fresh in his memory.
It seems that when you get to the head office, you should be severely beaten.
