Chapter 63: He is My Backing

"Liu Jiangmo, what do you want? Go ahead and take it."

Ye Chen looked at Liu Jiangmo.

"Thank you, Brother Ye!" Liu Jiangmo's expression was ecstatic as he bowed deeply to Ye Chen.

When Ye Chen reconciled with the Ye family, he was somewhat worried that Ye Chen would choose the Ye family and abandon him. But with these words, it was undoubtedly a declaration to him that the Ye family would not dominate the empire. The throne should be occupied by him, Liu Jiangmo.

"Hmm? The Third Prince is actually bowing to Ye Chen. Isn't he supposed to be the master of Ye Chen and his son?" The crowd was surprised and suspicious. Was Liu Jiangmo's attitude too humble?

"Liu Jiangmo, you bow so low to even one of your subordinates like this, yet you still dare to covet the throne? Do you have the majesty of an emperor?" Liu Jianghong looked at Liu Jiangmo, who was bowing respectfully, with disdain in his voice.

"Hahaha..."

Liu Jiangmo burst into laughter and said, "Liu Jianghong is Liu Jianghong. You consider yourself incredibly clever, but why can't you see that Ye Chen is not my subordinate? He is someone I must treat respectfully, someone who is my backing!"

What?!

As soon as these words fell, the crowd erupted in uproar. Even Liu Jianghong and Liu Qianlang were wide-eyed.

Ye Chen was not Liu Jiangmo's subordinate, but his backing?!

"Ye Chen is actually Liu Jiangmo's backing. What kind of status does he have?" The crowd continued to murmur in shock.

The members of the Ye family, including Ye Qingcang, were equally astonished, looking at Ye Chen with profound shock and confusion.

He was actually the backing of the Third Prince?

Did the Third Prince dare to reveal his cards and attempt to seize the throne only because he had Ye Chen's support?

"No wonder, Liu Jiangmo said something before, that I dared not listen to." Ye Lingtian murmured in shock, recalling the conversation.

Before, when he told Liu Jiangmo to send his lackeys to their deaths, Liu Jiangmo's response was cryptic, but he just didn't catch it.

"Brother, we really missed out." Ye Xiang's expression trembled again.

Ye Chen not only facilitated reconciliation within the Ye family but was also the backing of the Third Prince.

If they had been closer to Ye Chen from the beginning, perhaps they could have become his friends, and their fortunes would have been much stronger.

At least they wouldn't be just bodyguards for Ye Qian.

Ye Zhen muttered to himself, shaking his head like a drum. He didn't want to admit that they had missed their chance, didn't want to admit that their choice that night was wrong.

But everything now seemed to confirm that they had indeed missed out.

"No, no matter what the relationship between Ye Chen and the Third Prince is, if he wants to seize the throne, once he fails, he will also die. Yes, he will die, not just Ye Chen, but the entire Ye family will suffer. Sister, let's go, let's leave here quickly."

Ye Zhen grabbed Ye Xiang, wanting to leave this place.

Ridiculous, if the Ye family reconciles with Ye Chen, they will undoubtedly stand on the same side, and if Ye Chen wants to deal with the royal family, the Ye family will also suffer. If they don't leave now, they will inevitably be implicated.

"Brother, we missed one opportunity, but we must not miss a second one. Moreover, we are descendants of the Ye family. How can we leave at this moment?" Ye Xiang said firmly.

From the first time, they always thought that Ye Chen was seeking death, but every time, the results were shocking.

To say they could guarantee that today's outcome wouldn't be shocking?

Moreover, as descendants of the Ye family, how could they leave when the Ye family was in battle?

"Liu Jianghong, Liu Qianlang, do you think I want to use Ye Chen to control Ye Shuixian and take away your bargaining chips to please the North Cold Palace?" Liu Jiangmo had torn everything apart and mentioned Liu Qianlang's name directly.

"But how could you understand? The North Cold Palace, how can I please them? Because, my backing is Ye Chen!"

Hiss!

The crowd gasped in shock.

Liu Qianlang and others' expressions also became somewhat solemn.

Ye Chen, as Liu Jiangmo's backing, dared to disregard the North Cold Palace?

This is impossible!

He deliberately did so to shake their determination.

Anyway, whether he seizes the throne or controls Ye Shuixian, he can still tighten his grip on the North Cold Palace and Liu Jiangmo. He just wants to suppress them in terms of momentum to control imperial power.

"Control Ye Shuixian, the North Cold Palace?" Ye Qingcang frowned. He was unaware of this matter.

"Father, Shuixian possesses the Xuanbing Divine Body. North Cold Palace's Young Master Beiguanghan wants to absorb the power of her divine body. Liu Qianlang, Liu Qianzhong, and Liu Jianghong want to offer Shuixian to please the North Cold Palace and enter the North Cold Palace for cultivation." Ye Feng explained immediately.

"Boom!"

Ye Qingcang's aura suddenly exploded. This time, he was not gentle but fierce and violent.

"Liu Qianzhong, how dare you sacrifice my granddaughter!"

Ye Lingtian and the others were equally furious.

This was their loyal royal family?

This was the royal family they had desperately tried to please before, even resorting to fighting their own brothers?

They actually wanted to sacrifice members of the Ye family to gain opportunities for themselves. It was simply unforgivable!

"I, Ye Lingtian, have been blind!" Ye Lingtian cursed in frustration.

The members of the Ye family were filled with anger, even though many of them were injured, they were ready to fight.

If Ye Chen chose to support the Third Prince, they might have been a little puzzled, after all, the Ye family had always been on the side of the Crown Prince, Liu Jianghong.

But now, they would surely support him wholeheartedly.

Just because Liu Jianghong and the others wanted to sacrifice members of the Ye family.

"Humph, Liu Jiangmo, do you think you can reverse the situation by making a scene? Dare to rebel, and you will all die!" Liu Qianlang said coldly. Since everything had been torn apart, there was no need to hide anything.

Liu Jiangmo and the entire Ye family would all die.

"Kill them." Liu Jianghong ordered, and immediately, the elite troops of the royal family poured out, all of them True Martial experts.

"You all go too!" Liu Qianzhong spoke, and the True Martial experts from the Academy also stepped forward.

In an instant, the killing intent surged, and the terrifying aura spread in all directions, causing the students on the drill ground to tremble in fear and retreat.

"Fight!"

Liu Jiangmo waved his hand and ordered the True Martial experts to step forward and confront the elite troops of the royal family.

Of course

, he still left behind several of the strongest to protect Ye Shuixian and the others.

"Father, the Third and Fourth Brothers are stationed outside the imperial city, cooperating with the royal family. They are in danger." Ye Lingtian looked at Ye Qingcang anxiously.

Now that the Ye family's attitude was clear, the royal family would likely move against the Third and Fourth Brothers in an instant.

"Father, you go outside the imperial city. Leave this to us." Ye Feng spoke up, feeling somewhat guilty. If it weren't for his resentment, the elite troops of the Ye family wouldn't have been injured one after another, and there would have been no one to rescue the Third and Fourth Brothers.

"But what about here?" Ye Qingcang was worried.

The royal family was not to be underestimated.

Ye Feng smiled, "Father, rest assured, even if the North Cold Palace arrives, they will not be able to harm us because we have Emperor's Might."

"Emperor's Might!" Ye Qingcang's expression changed, and so did those of the Ye family members.

Ye Chen and his son actually had Emperor's Might!

Ye Qingcang nodded in amazement. Since they had Emperor's Might, he could rest assured. He immediately headed towards the outskirts of the imperial city.

At the same time, Ye Chen looked at Liu Jiangmo and said, "Liu Jiangmo, inform the Ouyang family outside the city to ensure the safety of the Ye family."

"Alright." Liu Jiangmo readily agreed and looked at Ouyang Qingyun, "Qingyun, you personally go and ensure the safety of the Ye family. At the same time, keep this place from being breached by the army."

"As you command!"

Ouyang Qingyun took the order and hurriedly left with Ye Qingcang, heading towards the outside of the imperial city.
