Chapter 597: Parting on bad terms
Chapter 597: Parting on bad terms
She has already entered the half-step innate realm, and in the mortal world, apart from her grandfather, she has almost no rivals.
How could they possibly be no match for Ye Feng?
"Alright, alright," the old lady said irritably. "From now on, you're free. Grandma's too old to worry about your young people's love affairs."
After today's events, she has even more confidence in Ye Feng's future.
Even without anyone's help, she believed that Ye Feng could stand on his own.
Just then, several eunuchs walked over from not far away.
"Young Master, Emperor Ye requests your presence!" Eunuch Gao said with a slight bow.
"Is there something you need?" Ye Feng asked.
"I don't know, please come with me." Eunuch Gao gestured for him to follow.
"it is good."
Ye Feng stopped arguing with Ye Qingwu, said goodbye to his grandmother, and then followed Eunuch Gao to the Imperial Study.
At this moment, Ye Batian was reading in the imperial study.
Upon seeing Ye Feng arrive, he quickly put down his book and went to greet him. Since the Inheritance Ceremony, the father and son had not had a proper chat.
This time, Ye Batian pulled Ye Feng to sit down.
"Grandpa, are you feeling alright after your breakthrough?" Ye Feng asked with concern.
"I'm fine, I'm great. I feel even better now than I was fifty years ago, full of energy," Ye Batian said cheerfully.
After saying this, he was filled with emotion, saying that if it weren't for Ye Feng, he would already be reporting to the underworld by now.
Meanwhile, the Ye family has already fallen into Ye Badao's hands.
It's estimated that none of them will have a good ending.
Ye Feng nodded, "That's good. If you feel unwell, just let me know."
"Good good!"
Ye Batian was very happy.
Having such a capable grandson is the proudest thing in his life. He even thinks that as long as Ye Feng can control his temper, his future achievements will definitely not be lower than his father's.
"By the way, Grandpa, did you need something from me?" Ye Feng asked again.
"Yes."
Ye Batian looked at Ye Feng with great relief, "After your father died, my biggest worry was that the Ye family would have no successor. You know, your uncles are all rough men, and your second uncle is too weak. Your generation is even worse, with no one who can stand up for you. Now that you're back, Grandpa can finally rest easy."
Ye Feng knew what he wanted to say, and smiled with relief, "Grandpa has already broken through to the Innate Realm. There are still many days ahead of him, so there's no need to worry about anything else."
"No no no."
Ye Batian said seriously, "You're not getting any younger. You need to take over the Ye family's affairs as soon as possible. I plan to appoint you as the temporary head of the family so that you can inherit my position in the future."
If anyone else heard this, they would be overjoyed, but Ye Feng just wanted to live an ordinary life.
If it weren't for their blood ties, Ye Feng wouldn't have even gotten involved in the Ye family's disputes, much less eliminated Ye Badao.
"We'll talk about it later. I don't have the mind to think about these things right now."
Yi Yi hadn't recovered yet, and he was still completely confused about his parents' situation, so Ye Feng didn't want to think about it too much.
"Grandpa knows what you're worried about," Ye Batian said. "Regarding your mother, you may not be able to accept it yet, but I only know so much. If you want to know more, you should take over the position of temporary head of the family. That would make it easier to investigate, wouldn't it?"
After saying that, he said directly, "But as you also know, my Ye family is the number one family in the Great Xia Dynasty, and we bear the mission of protecting the Great Xia Dynasty. As the head of the Ye family, I must not leave any room for criticism."
"What do you mean?" Ye Feng felt there was something more to his words.
"Ugh."
Ye Batian sighed and continued, "Although you have made a great contribution in eliminating Ye Badao, your status is very awkward. Now, the people of Great Xia and the major families will not understand you. Moreover, the news that you seriously injured Liu Qingshan last time has already spread."
"In order to secure your position, you must go to the Liu family in person and apologize to Liu Qingshan."
what?
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng's expression turned grim.
Should he apologize to Liu Qingshan?
So, it all came down to this.
"Hehe, if the price of being the head of the Ye family is to always be tolerant and submissive, then I'm sorry, I can't do that." Ye Feng refused outright.
"Sigh, why are you still so stubborn?"
Ye Batian said helplessly, "Whether Liu Qingshan forgives you or not is not important. The important thing is to show the world what we're capable of!"
Ha ha!
Ye Feng sneered, "Is this your style of doing things? Back then, you knew my father was framed, but for the sake of your position as the head of the Ye family, you still personally killed your own family member for the greater good. Is this something you did for the world to see?"
"I will not pursue the right or wrong of this matter for the time being. You do have your reasons, but let me tell you, I, Ye Feng, do not need to bow down."
"If you are afraid of the Liu family and the world, then go and apologize yourself."
After saying that, Ye Feng stood up angrily, "Oh right, there's no need to go through all that trouble. Liu Chuanhong will come in person tomorrow, and the truth will come out."
Ye Batian did not expect Ye Feng to react so strongly.
His temper is even more stubborn than his father's back then.
"Grandpa knows you're unwilling, but if you want to become a wise ruler, you must learn to bow your head. Many things can't be solved with fists. When you truly become the head of the Ye family, you'll naturally understand."
Ye Feng shook his head. "If the price of becoming the head of the Ye family is to compromise without regard for right or wrong, then I don't care. Let whoever wants to be the head of the family be it."
After that, he was about to leave.
"you!"
Ye Fengbatian immediately stopped him, "Alright, let's talk about this another day. Let's talk about Tang Yiyi."
Tang Yiyi!
Ye Feng was stunned.
He brought this up suddenly, could it be...?
"Did you take her away?"
Previously, when Ye Feng asked this question, Ye Xinyi always changed the subject, but now he roughly understands.
Ye Batian's expression turned serious. "Yes! As the heir of the Ye family, how can you marry a witch? Do you know what kind of situation this will bring to yourself and even the Ye family?"
Ye Feng's expression was firm. "I've always been clear about love and hate, and I don't think about so many things. I only know that she is my wife, and I want to protect her."
"Where is she now? I need to see her!"
Ye Feng didn't know how much longer Yi Yi could hold on, so he had to treat her as soon as possible.
Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous.
"You're ignoring Grandpa's words for the sake of a woman?" Ye Batian was also furious.
Ye Feng didn't want to explain further to him.
In his heart, nothing is more important than his wife.
"Her life will soon be in danger. Please let me see her," Ye Feng said solemnly, emphasizing again.
However, this tone infuriated Ye Batian.
How could a woman influence the overall situation of the Ye family?
“What if I say 'no'?” he asserted.
"you!"
Ye Feng suppressed his anger and gritted his teeth, "Fine, then you just wait. I'll search every inch of the Ye family palace to find her."
After saying that, he left in anger.
Ye Batian was so angry that his face turned red. He was at a loss as he watched Ye Feng's departing figure.
A perfectly good conversation ended in discord.
