Sacred Family when the first blast occurred,
Shen Hong stood up and looking at the mushroom cloud said,
"Take 4 Black Gold Rank Demon Spiritualist and Check out the City Mansion and if you find Long Sha rescue him if needed."
"Yes Lord"
Then black shadows leaped towards the city lord's mansion.
"Ye Zong, this is your mistake you won't be there to live a tale by tomorrow, Hahahaa" Shen Hong laughed thinking about his plan.
For the whole night Glory City was awake.
Red and the girls went to Ziyun's quarters and spent their night there.
They were mentally exhausted with all the fights today.
"Now rest easy, I have asked Ancestor Yan to keep a look around the pillars."
They all then went to take rest and sleep peacefully.
In the morning after the attack,
Just when Ye Zong had woken up from sleep, a man walked to the door and knocked.
"Come in." Ye Zong took a glance at the door, he could already feel Ye Han's aura.
"Lord Father!" Ye Han walked into the room and cupped his hands towards Ye Zong.
"Han'er, why have you come?" Ye Zong said, smiling.
"I want to have a chat with Lord Father," said Ye Han, after pondering awhile.
"Okay." Ye Zong nodded his head.
"Yesterday, I've noticed that there are lots of stranger things and no one is living at Ye Ziyun's courtyard so I felt a little puzzled about it, so I was wondering if I should talk about it,"
Ye Han lowered his head, his gaze was uncertain and did not face Ye Zong.
"She should be Red's place, they all live together with Yang Xin, Xiao Ninger, Huang Lanrou, and Red Tian, that place is where they, practice and hone themselves. And I have personally gifted that Mansion to them,"
Ye Zong said.
How could he not see that Ye Han still has intentions for Ye Ziyun? Except, the two of them have too large of an age gap between them, not to mention their relationship is that of brother and sister. They're absolutely not a match for each other.
Observing now, if Ye Han is compared with Red, Ye Zong would be not even thinking about any issue marrying Yun'er to Red. Because Ye Han's motives are too deep, letting Ye Zong to feel a trace of unease. And Red is someone who had all people by his side and a trusted character.
"Lord Father, I understand. All along, Lord Father has been nurturing and teaching me, wanting to pass the City Lord's position to me. And I am lacking in talent, unable to meet Lord Father's expectations. In the past, when I was living in the streets, it was Lord Father that brought me to City Lord's Mansion. I only wanted to repay Lord Father's grace, I never had any expectations for the City Lord's position..." Ye Han suddenly knelt down with tears all over his face.
Ye Zong, seeing this situation, immediately said to Ye Han, "Han'er, I understand you. Your talent is extraordinary, you'll definitely surpass me in your lifetime. However, there are many things that won't go as you or me had wished. I only hope that you're able to let it go..."
"I understand. Recently, Ziyun's cultivation has soared leaps and bounds, exhibiting extraordinary talent and has already far surpassed me."
Ye Han interrupted, his hoarse voice was trembling,
"Having Ziyun in the position of City Lord, it's natural. Except, you have always been telling me to bitterly train to become a good City Lord, and I have always heeded your words and worked hard, not slacking in the slightest. And now, you tell me that everything isn't your decision. Have you considered my feelings? That kind of spirit with all hope lost?"
"Han'er, I'm sorry!" Ye Zong said, apologetically.
"From the moment I saw Ziyun, I told myself that I must marry her as my wife. However, you have never recognized me in your heart, you have been looking down on me in your heart, right? You feel that I'm only a homeless child, I'm not worthy of your Snow Wind Family! I have been looking forward to one day being up in the City Lord's position, able to marry Ziyun. And now, you tell me that I'm not suitable to become the City Lord!"
"It was you who deprived me of my dreams, and now, I have become an empty shell. I have nothing!" Ye Han said in a daze.
"Han'er!" Ye Zong felt extremely guilty.
He has understood that the belief that he has was wrong. He should give more concern for Yun'er and Ye Han, and not constantly force them to reach his expectations. He took a step forward and hugged Ye Han,
"Han'er, I understand all the grievances in your heart, it's my mistake. I shouldn't have put such a heavy responsibility onto your shoulders, forcing you to meet my expectations. You should have a better life, and not what I've forced upon you."
Just when Ye Zong was holding onto Ye Han, Ye Han's eyes flashed with a ray of chill, his expression suddenly turned ferocious.
A dagger suddenly appeared in Ye Han's right hand and fiercely pierced Ye Zong's back. In that instant, fresh blood splattered out.
Ye Zong was suddenly assaulted by Ye Han, feeling a toxin heading straight for his heart. His heart was suddenly replaced with anger and gave Ye Han a palm strike, making him fly out. He staggered for a few steps to firm himself and his eyes were filled with rage as he stared at Ye Han, "You…...you wretch!"
After Ye Han fell onto the ground, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He stared at Ye Zong and said using a crazy tone, "Lord Father, this is what you've forced me to do. Right now, I have nothing else, no road to walk upon; therefore, I have no other choice but to do this!"
"Why?" Ye Zong tried to gather a trace of soul force but realized that his soul force collapsed, it couldn't be gathered. His face changed. He's unable to refine the poison on the dagger at all!
Originally, with Ye Zong's strength, even if he were to be assassinated, he wouldn't be wounded by someone who's only a Gold rank. However, Ye Han is one of the closest people to him, he wasn't prepared at all. Who would have thought that Ye Han would take such a risk out of desperation?
"Why? Haha, laughable. Don't you understand? By killing you, I will be able to get the seat of the City Lord!" Ye Han crazily laughed, the fresh blood at the corner of his mouth made him look even more ferocious.
"Even by killing me, you won't be able to sit in the City Lord's position!" Ye Zong said solemnly.
"That's not your final say. A few days later, there will be news of you being killed by people from the Dark Guild. And I, fought with the assassin and killed him. The real culprit that assassinated Lord Father is Red!"
"Not long after that, the Dark Guild will launch an attack against the Snow Wind Family. At that time, the Snow Wind Family will be scattered, no longer having any qualifications to control Glory City. And I will attain the City Lord's position!" Ye Han crazily laughed,
"Lord Father, if you had just given me the City Lord's position, all of this wouldn't have happened!"
"Wretch, you actually collude with the Dark Guild?!" Ye Zong gasped for a mouthful of breath. The toxin had already quickly spread over his whole body. He fought off the poison until now with his soul realm, he never thought that the poison would be so tyrannical.
"So what? Following Dark Guild has more of a future than following you! You only wanted me to become a puppet City Lord!"
"Then the Dark Guild is not?"
"Haha, by becoming your puppet City Lord, I would have to think of ways to please you every day, bend to a task and spare no effort unto my dying day. Ye Zong, don't you feel that you're tired of living? But becoming the puppet City Lord of the Dark Guild, I can do what I want, anything I want, how joyful would that be?!" Ye Han madly laughed.
Ye Zong was filled with regret. He never thought that after so many years of hard work in nurturing Ye Han, he was actually nurturing a tiger and invited calamity. Perhaps it can be considered a punishment for him.
"Ye Han, your treacherous scheme will never succeed!" Ye Zong coldly stared at Ye Han, gathering the last of his soul force.
"Whether it succeeds or not, Lord Father, you will not be able to see it. Thank you, Lord Father, for the years of bringing me up. Next, I'll send Lord Father on your way!" Ye Han walked closer to Ye Zong step by step. The reason why he talked so much with Ye Zong was to wait for the poison to slowly take effect!
Seeing Ye Zong struggling to support himself, Ye Han smiled,
"Don't bother struggling. The poison that I've used is the Draconic Tongue Herb. This type of poison can claim a person's life in half an hour and will have an even stronger effect on those from the dragon tribe."
"Lord Father has integrated with the Black Scaled Earth Dragon demon spirit. At best, you only have a quarter of an hour of time left and you will die with your seven holes bleeding. Right now, I'm afraid that Lord Father can't even gather a trace of soul force anymore, right?"
