Half of Wuwang Pavilion's foundation had been destroyed, thinking it was to vent his own anger, from what stance did he utter that sentence?
As the one who seeks vengeance for his mother's murder?
Hah, truly laughable.
The letter left by his mother told him not to seek revenge, claiming she committed suicide. Yet, if she hadn't been coerced, if not to make sure he would no longer be under anyone's control, why would his mother choose to end her life?

Gazing in the direction where Qing Yan had departed, Qing Li's eyes were filled with hatred, ablaze with fire.
Even if he couldn't kill him now, there would come a day when he would make him pay for his deeds!
At Wangshan Village, Ye Jiu sat in the courtyard, looking helplessly at the girl Ye Hei had brought back.
Her emerald dress was stained with blood, her hair also matted with dried crimson, but her exposed face was surprisingly delicate and pretty.
Ye Jiu turned to Ye Hei, "I'm saying, when can you kick this habit of picking up people? We don't even know who she is; what if she brings trouble, what then?"
Looking around to see no one in sight, Ye Hei finally dared to transform into human form, "Even if there's trouble, the master isn't afraid now, is he? Besides, I rescued her from bandits, and she's a defenseless lady. Does the master really have the heart to leave her to die?"
Ye Jiu was left speechless; the last part of what Ye Hei said was probably the key point, wasn't it?
In all respects these two were fine, it's just that they were especially tender-hearted when it came to women.
Could it be because females were scarce in the Ancient Plane, that they treated women with such significance?
"Forget it, since she's already been brought back, we can't just abandon her. Go find a doctor to come over," Ye Jiu waved his hand and said.
As for whether she could be saved or not, it was up to her fate; the injuries on her body were indeed severe.
The old family home was now fully occupied, not a single room to spare. Fortunately, Ye Changsheng's family had few members, just three generations living together, so Ye Jiu had the rescued girl sent to Ye Changsheng's home to be looked after.
As for the medical and food expenses, Ye Jiu didn't mind the cost and considered saving a person a good deed.
In the summer afternoon, the sunlight was pleasant.
In front of Ye Family's main gate, Xiang Nan suddenly came running in a hurry, stood in front of Ye Jiu and murmured for a while.
Then, all the people from Ye Family came out to wait at the door; Xiang Nan led the preparation of an altar to receive the royal decree.
Half an hour later, a troop of soldiers came from the entrance of the village. A scout soldier turned around and murmured a few words to the Prince, and then saw Prince's face clouded with darkness before he ordered their direction changed, heading towards the old Ye residence.
At the gates of the Ye Family, the entire clan had already assembled; Old Man Ye and the Clan Leader both stood together, their expressions a mix of fear and excitement.
The Prince's troops had finally arrived, and the procession halted their horses.
"The humble citizens greet His Highness the Prince, may the Prince live for a thousand years..." The Ye family members knelt down and shouted out, the motions and voices messy due to lack of rehearsal.
The Prince waved his hand, and immediately someone stepped forward and announced, "The Prince says, dispense with the formalities."
"Thank you, Prince." This time, the voices were somewhat more uniform.
After everyone stood up, the Prince waved his hand again, and an old eunuch came down from his horse, with someone respectfully presenting the royal decree beside him.
"Ye Jiu, receive the decree..." The piercing voice made listeners' ears tingle, yet not a single person dared to be anything but solemn.
