Realms In The Firmament

”To be honest, I always have a dream. I want you all to know that when you mess with me, Lord Qingzhou, you will eventually… beg for death!”

When he said the last few words, his voice came through his teeth. When he said it, he slowly moved forward. In the end, he shouted, ”Understand?”

Killing intent erupted.

Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but take a step backward.

No matter how steady and calm he was, he understood that his clan was truly going to the end. There was nothing he could do to change.

Li Clan was the sworn enemy to Ye Clan all the time, and also the biggest rival. The two clans were even in forces. Ye Clan might be a little bit stronger because of the connection with Misty Cloud Palace. The Li Clan had been searching for valuable materials and they even planted some of them. All they needed was the time when Ye Clan made a mistake and they could take over Ye Clan’s deals with Misty Cloud Palace. They wanted to replace Ye Clan.

Ye Clan had been lucky for all those years. Every time, they could collect enough materials for Misty Cloud Palace. That left no chance to Li Clan. That was also why Misty Cloud Palace had been dealing with Ye Clan for such a long time and it made Ye Clan a little bit stronger than Li Clan!

However, the two clans both understood that it wasn’t a certain thing. If Li Clan got lucky, Ye Clan would be replaced at any time.

That was why the two clans both didn’t dare to be slack.

The young generations of the two clans were also competing with each other under the table. Li Qingzhou was the biggest enemy of the youngsters of Ye Clan. He was vicious and ruthless. If Li Clan replaced Ye Clan this time, it would be a disaster for Ye Liangchen and his brothers!

There were many stories that were spreading that this young lord Li wasn’t just talking. He had countless methods to torture people. If anybody fell in his hand, it would be difficult to even die easily. When he said he would make people beg for death, he wasn’t lying. He definitely would do it. He wouldn’t show mercy!

”I don’t have it. So what? Do you have it?” Ye Liangchen said, ”Did you collect many materials? Did you get inside the third layer of Heaven Treasure Mountain?”

”If you can’t get inside the third layer, you can’t get the medicine. Even if we don’t have enough Regeneration Ink Lotus, you won’t get to replace us!”

Ye Liangchen was apparently tough on the mouth.

”Nonsense! Nobody has ever entered the third layer of Heaven Treasure Mountain in history! We can’t enter it, and it is reasonable!” Li Qingzhou squinted at Ye Liangchen and said, ”Ye Liangchen, did you enter it today?”

”I…” Ye Liangchen didn’t know how to reply.

On the other side.

Ye Xiao thought for a while and interrupted for the first time, ”You, Li Clan, can’t get in the third layer? And you are so sure that nobody else can? Who said that we Ye Clan can’t enter it?”

Everybody else was shocked by what he said.

Not only Li Qingzhou, but also Ye Liangchen was shocked. They both looked at this handsome young man and couldn’t believe what he had just said.

[What does he mean… ’we Ye Clan’?]

[Since when he becomes member of Ye Clan?]

”My name is also Ye.” Ye Xiao rubbed the nose and spoke nicely, ”I am not from Town of Ye, but we have the same name. It makes me feel angry that these young men who are also named Ye are attacked.”

He stopped and then continued, ”All the people of the name Ye are like families. Nobody can insult it.”

Ye Liangchen looked at him and spoke after a short silence, ”Brother Ye, you are a loyal man!”

Ye Xiao rolled up his eyes.

[What the hell. I forgot this guy’s stupid personality.]

[Loyal?]

[I am a loyal man? That’s an abuse!]

[You are from Ye Clan. I am named Ye too. You are in the third branch, which was closely related to my father. You have been suppressed because of what happened in the old days. You are more or less my own people… If not for these reasons, I will never step out and be the loyal man in your eyes!]

Apparently, Ye Xiao was truly a person who would always protect his own people. Xuan Bing couldn’t compare on this!

Li Qingzhou squinted at Ye Xiao and sneered, ”You are named Ye? What a persuasive reason… I don’t know which rotting corner do you come from. You are not allowed to talk. You must know that if you claim to be one of Ye Clan people, you are seeking death!”

Ye Xiao didn’t get angry. He just smiled and said, ”Seeking death? I am definitely not. However, it is true that I am Ye. Even if I want to change it, I can’t. No matter where I am from, I am a Ye Clan people. I won’t betray my ancestors!”

He looked at Li Qingzhou and asked, ”Would you abandon your family name when your clan is in danger?”

Li Qingzhou looked fierce. ”That’s quibbling. I won’t have this quarrel. Let me ask you seriously. Do you really want to step in the Li Clan and Ye Clan’s business? I think you don’t know the truth!”

He half closed his eyes and continued, ”You will die! Ye Clan people may live, but if you stepped out and claimed you are one of them… you will die! Ye Clan badly needs a scapegoat right now!”

Ye Xiao frowned. He could sense the murderous qi from the opponent, but it wasn’t threatening for him at all. He blandly said, ”Who can escape from death? All men die!”

”Nobody can choose when he or she would be born, but to die at the time he or she wanted to would be the most enjoyable thing in life.”

”In fact, it doesn’t matter if I will die or not. I just want to tell you that your Li Clan is not a big deal.”

Ye Xiao half closed his eyes and said, ”You can’t even enter the third layer of this mountain. I don’t believe you could make lots of Regeneration Ink Lotus. You don’t deserve it.”

Li Qingzhou was furious. He widely opened his eyes and looked at Ye Xiao. ”How did you know there are Regeneration Ink Lotus in the third layer?”

Ye Xiao blandly said, ”That’s simple. I have been there!”

Li Qingzhou was shocked. He fell silent. His eyes were twinkling.

He was thinking of something.

”You have been into it? Is it the truth?” He stared at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao didn’t answer. He just blandly smiled and turned his hand over. In his hand, there was a black lotus.
