I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 2132: Chapter 2132: Heart Demon, Jiang Chan’s Hidden Past

Rockery with flowing water and the layout of the houses.

Everything remained unchanged.

Ye Qiubai walked towards the main house, turning his head to look around.

Meanwhile, the passing Ye family members all had varying expressions as they stared at Ye Qiubai, whispering to one another.

Most of their words were unpleasant.

Even though Ye Qiubai heard them, he didn’t really care.

No need to get angry over a few words.

Would you really bother arguing with people from within an illusion realm?

Isn’t that just sheer insanity?

”Illusion realms are divided into two types... the Slaughter Illusion Realm and the Heart Inquiry Illusion Realm. If it’s the slaughter type, you can only find the array foundation and break it to escape.

However, this seems more like a Heart Inquiry Illusion Realm... Looks like this memory holds my Heart Demon, and I must find and remove it.”

Ye Qiubai had already grasped the intention of the person who set up the array formation.

Using the Heart Inquiry Illusion Realm at this time was undoubtedly meant to shake his state of mind and cause him to fail at understanding.

Who knows who set up this situation.

Ye Qiubai pondered over it, wondering who else in the Yang Dao White Pool harbored resentment against him.

Some Heart Demons surface and continuously linger in the mind.

While others hide deep inside, sealed away over time and remain unearthed...

This was the case with Ye Qiubai.

As he walked, he eventually reached the main house.

Upon seeing the middle-aged man standing at the front, Ye Qiubai couldn’t help but smile.

The head of the Murong family, Ye Qing, who was also Ye Qiubai’s father.

On one side, several elders were also present, including Great Elder Ye Ling, who said, ”Head of the family, you must understand that Ye Qiubai’s talent is long gone; he’s already a waste! The Ye family can’t continue pouring resources into him, even though he is your son!”

”Great Elder is right, and besides, many in the family are dissatisfied with Ye Qiubai. It’s better to take advantage of this talent test and expel him from the Ye family!”

”And it’s not just the Jiang family members who have come this time; the Crown Prince of the Sunset Dynasty, Huang Tianming, has also arrived in Tianyuan City. The head of the family should know their purpose, right?”

”Think of the bigger picture!”

Ye Qiubai watched this scene, remembering that he was yet to return to the Ye family by the day before the talent test; he hurried back that very day, not expecting his father to experience such a rebellious situation.

Ye Qing, with a stern face, said, ”Do the elders think I don’t know what you’re getting at? Stop talking, my mind is made up. Even if his talent is gone, he’s still my son!”

After saying this, Ye Qing raised his eyes and saw Ye Qiubai standing at the door, slightly stunned before striding forward and saying, ”You brat, when did you come back?”

Ye Qiubai smiled slightly, ”Just now.”

”Those words just now...” Ye Qing’s tiger-like eyes showed a hint of pain.

”I heard it all.” Nowadays, Ye Qiubai’s state of mind was far from what it used to be, caring little about the elders’ words.

Ye Qing looked suspiciously at Ye Qiubai, then sighed, patted him on the shoulder, and said, ”Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, you can stay home with peace of mind.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Ling stepped forward and said, ”Ye Qing, as the head of the family, how can you act so willfully? Are you completely disregarding the family’s interests?!”

Ye Qing was about to say something.

Ye Qiubai stepped up to Ye Ling and calmly said, ”Where are Jiang Chan and Huang Tianming residing now?”

The sudden change in topic left everyone present stunned.

Ye Ling also frowned and said, ”Why are you asking this? That girl from the Jiang family has already broken off the engagement with you. Are you trying to humiliate yourself?”

Ye Qiubai locked eyes with Ye Ling and repeated, ”Where are they now?”

Facing Ye Qiubai’s eyes, Ye Ling’s gaze wavered, feeling an icy chill as if a sword was pressing against his heart, and he reflexively said, ”At the Jiang family...”

Ye Qiubai nodded, turned to Ye Qing, and smiled, ”Don’t worry.”

With that, he disappeared from where he stood.

Watching Ye Qiubai vanish, everyone present was startled.

None of them noticed anything!

”Could it be that his strength has recovered?”

”Impossible. Even if it has, the strength he had before isn’t enough for this.”

”Could it be a magic treasure brought from that forbidden area?”

Ye Qing looked in the direction where Ye Qiubai disappeared, eventually shaking his head with a smile and a curse, ”You brat... but why has the jade pendant on his chest changed? Wasn’t that previous one brought from that forbidden area?”

——

——

In the blink of an eye, Ye Qiubai arrived at the Jiang family.

Crown Prince Huang Tianming, Jiang Chan.

If the Heart Demon relates to this period, then it must be connected to these two.

The Jiang family had many new spies.

All were Underworld Palace soldiers clad in armor.

They were guards of Huang Tianming.

Ye Qiubai wove between these guards, strolling boldly through the Jiang family with no one seeing him.

Through his senses, he quickly detected the location of Huang Tianming and Jiang Chan.

Ye Qiubai instantly appeared in the room where the two were, with guards still stationed outside the door.

Looking at Jiang Chan’s figure by the window, Ye Qiubai’s eyes showed no significant waves.

Huang Tianming sat at the table, smiling as he said, ”What, still thinking about Ye Qiubai?”

Jiang Chan’s shoulders stiffened, and after a moment, she shook her head and said, ”No.”

”You can’t fool me.” Huang Tianming stood up, approached Jiang Chan, and played with a strand of her hair, smiling softly, ”It’s normal, but this Crown Prince hopes you restrain yourself a bit after tomorrow, as I am to ascend the throne in the future.”

Jiang Chan lowered her head slightly and nodded.

”Come on.” Huang Tianming opened the door and walked out.

Jiang Chan was slightly stunned, ”Where to?”

”Just follow me.”

Jiang Chan followed.

Ye Qiubai slowly trailed behind.

Soon, Huang Tianming left the Jiang family with Jiang Chan, leaving Tianyuan City and stopping in a dense forest outside the city.

Ye Qiubai glanced around, slightly frowning.

This was the very place where he was ambushed after leaving the family and rescued by his master, whom he then became an apprentice to.

Everything clearly in sight now.

Jiang Chan then asked, ”Why bring me here?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Qiubai’s pupils shrank, as if thinking of something.

After Jiang Chan asked, her eyes rolled up, pupils dilated, seemingly losing consciousness.

Huang Tianming pointed a finger at Jiang Chan’s forehead, then took out a human skin mask and placed it on her face.

It wasn’t a disguise, but Jiang Chan’s expression returned to normal after the mask melded with her skin, showing no signs of being manipulated.

After completing this, they left the area.

Ye Qiubai’s fists gradually clenched.

As expected.

After Huang Tianming left, several men in black emerged from the forest and approached Jiang Chan.

One of the men in black said, ”What are we to do?”

Jiang Chan coolly said, ”Intercept and kill Ye Qiubai here tomorrow.”
