Ye Yang sat cross-legged on the bed and quickly fell into meditation, operating the energy in his body according to the mental method of "Purple Qi Gathering Elements".
Feeling the energy slowly flowing through his meridians, Ye Yang's spiritual consciousness seemed to have entered some kind of ethereal state.
During this practice, I completely forgot about time.
Until late in the evening, there was a sudden knock on the bedroom door.
"Brother Yang, are you in there?"
Listening to the sound, the person knocking on the door was none other than the fat man Ye Wencheng.
Disturbed by this, Ye Yang slowly took a deep breath and came back from his trance.
Upon receiving Ye Yang's look, the fox-tailed marten flashed and pushed open the door latch.
The door opened and Ye Wencheng walked in immediately, carrying a square box wrapped in a black cloth.
"Wencheng, what's the matter?"
Ye Yang glanced at the black cloth box and asked.
"The guard said that a strange man brought this thing just now and named it for you."
While talking, Ye Wencheng put the box on the table, "The weight is quite heavy, I don't know what it is."
For me?
Hearing this, Ye Yang felt quite confused.
He didn't know many people in the Imperial City.
Especially the only people outside the Ye family were Qin Ge and Tang Zhenyu, who they had only met once.
It stands to reason that these two people are both respectable people. If they really wanted to give gifts, they would not be so mysterious.
Moreover, Ye Yang is very self-aware. With his current status, he is still unable to reach the level where Tang Zhenyu can give gifts to curry favor with him.
"If not them, then who?"
As he thought about it, Ye Yang looked at the black cloth box on the table, his eyes a little more wary.
squeak.
At this time, the fox-tailed ferret suddenly jumped up on the table, sniffed the black cloth box, and a hint of ferocity suddenly flashed in his eyes.
The olfactory organs of monster beasts are extremely sensitive. At this smell, the fox-tailed marten seemed to have discovered something and swung out its claws fiercely.
Tsk-!
The black cloth on the surface of the box was directly torn off, and the lid of the box was opened, revealing the contents inside.
When I looked at it, I saw that there was a bloody human head inside, bleeding from all seven holes, and I would die with my eyes open!
"What the hell!"
Ye Wencheng screamed loudly at the sudden bloody scene, and was almost so frightened that his legs went weak and he sat on the ground.
Ye Yang's eyes narrowed slightly and he saw clearly the appearance of the head. It was actually the coachman hired during the day.
"Mengshun!"
Seeing this, Ye Yang frowned and clenched his fists fiercely.
"The head seems to be biting a piece of paper on its mouth."
Ye Wencheng had the courage to look again and found this detail, but he didn't dare to take it out with his hands, so he used the Wuhun Golden Pattern Pen to get it out.
"Are the little bastards from the Ye family split up scared?"
"Don't worry, it will be your turn next."
There were two lines of blood words written on the paper. Ye Wencheng read them out in a low voice, and then looked at Ye Yang in surprise.
"Brother Yang, could it be those guys from the Han family who did it?!"
Thinking of the dispute between Ye Yang and Han Tiancheng during the day, he suddenly became suspicious.
"No one would do this except them."
Ye Yang's eyes surged with anger and he said coldly.
I just didn't expect that these guys would be so cruel. Not only did they cut off Meng Shun's head and leave his body intact, but they also sent it to Ye Mansion as a 'gift'.
Such an action is undoubtedly a naked threat!
"Those bastards from the Han family, I will definitely report this to the head of the family!"
After a brief fright, Ye Wencheng cursed angrily, then picked up the head box and walked out of the house angrily.
After a while.
The entire Ye Mansion suddenly became restless, like a roaring wave.
Obviously, the vast majority of members have already learned about the threat that Ye Mansion was beheaded.
Although the other party's target is only Ye Yang, this matter is already related to the dignity of the Ye family.
No one who is a member of the Ye family can swallow such a provocation!
However, even so, the senior members of the Ye family did not make the slightest move and seemed to choose to endure.
Because this is the imperial capital city, the area with the strictest order in the entire Chuyang Dynasty!
If a large-scale armed fight breaks out between families, no matter what the reason is, it will definitely be quickly suppressed by the armed forces of the royal family.
And they will also take this opportunity to weaken the power of each family.
In the end, the only ones who benefited were the royal family and other mid-level family forces waiting to ascend to the throne.
Therefore, in the absence of real life-and-death interests, the four major clans in the city will not really go to war, and secretly disgusting each other is enough to relieve their anger.
That night, night fell.
Ye Yang, who had been silent for a long time, finally walked out of the dormitory.
"Since you gave me a gift, it is necessary for me to give you a gift in return."
He raised his head and looked at the deep night. As he murmured to himself, his face became increasingly gloomy.
"Little Diao, you don't have to follow me."
This time, Ye Yang did not take the fox-tailed marten with him and left Ye Mansion alone.
When he walked into a remote back alley, he took out a black cloak from his Qiankun bag and put it on. The huge hat covered most of his face, making it difficult to see what he looked like.
At the same moment, the Ye family ancestral hall.
Several big-shot figures in the family are all here.
On the main seat, Ye Junxiong was sitting upright with a gloomy face. It was obvious that he was in a very bad mood.
"What do you think about this matter?"
Ye Junxiong glanced at the three family elders present and asked in a deep voice.
"Master, the person who died this time was not a member of our Ye family. The matter is not serious. I will find an opportunity to settle matters with the Han family next time."
The person who spoke was the eldest elder of the Ye family, ‘Ye Kun’. His old face was covered with wrinkles, and he didn’t have the vigor and vigor of the young people at all.
"I think the eldest brother is right. Anyway, this matter was caused by the boy who separated from the family. There is no need to go to war."
The gray-haired second elder, 'Ye Ming', nodded in agreement and did not intend to make the conflict between the two families worse for Ye Yang's sake, thus damaging the foundation of the family.
"fart!"
However, at this time, a short and stocky sixty-year-old man slammed the table and said angrily with a red face: "The branch family is also a member of the Ye family!"
"If those bastards from the Han family really dare to touch him, I will definitely pay him back twice as much!"
This short, stocky old man with a bad temper and a rough voice is Ye Leichuan, the third elder of the Ye family.
"Third Elder, what you said is wrong. Everything must be done with the overall situation in mind."
"What the heck, I just want to fight violence with violence. If someone bites a piece of my flesh, I'll chew him until there's no bones left!"
…
Due to different opinions, the three old men actually started to quarrel in the ancestral hall.
"Everyone, please be quiet."
It wasn't until Ye Junxiong spoke out that the three elders finally stopped.
Because, the final decision is undoubtedly decided by the head of the family.
"You three, it seems you haven't met Ye Yang yet. I've already sent someone to call him over."
Ye Junxiong didn't want to waste any words, and planned to call Ye Yang over so that the three elders could truly see his talents, instead of being as insignificant as other branches of the Ye family.
"My lord, Ye Yang is missing!"
At this time, martial arts chief Ye Yunpeng hurriedly walked into the ancestral hall.
"Gone?!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Junxiong's face darkened and he stood up suddenly, "Immediately send an order to dispatch all the guards to find Ye Yang's whereabouts as soon as possible!"
"Master, it's just a small branch of the family, why bother..."
"Shut up!"
Grand Elder Ye Kun was about to say something, but he was suddenly shouted at by Ye Junxiong, who was shocked and dumbfounded.
Almost at the same time, the second elder, Ye Ming, was so frightened that he swallowed what he said.
They looked at Ye Junxiong with blank eyes. It was unimaginable that the head of the family, who had always been sensible and took the interests of the family as his top priority, would split up the family for the sake of a family today. It was so abnormal...
