Young Master Of Long Clan

Meanwhile, at the Long Family Courtyard.

In Xianglan City, the power was held by four major Immortal clans.

These families were considered pseudo-Immortal clans, each having at least one ancestor who had reached the Soul Formation stage.

However, due to various schemes and natural causes, the Xia, Gu, and Ye families had all weakened over time.

The Long family, with their ancestor still alive and in the Soul Formation stage, stood as the strongest among them.

They were like a giant tree in a withered forest, both mighty and stable.

At this moment, a young man with dark features paced back and forth, his eyes filled with resentment.

This young man was Long Wei, the young master of the Immortal Long family.

Long Wei turned to his servant.

"Liu Chen, you're sure about this?"

Excitement coursed through him.

All the effort he had put into bringing Ye Chen down was finally bearing fruit.

His long-awaited wish was about to become reality.

Liu Chen, his loyal servant, nodded.

"Yes, Master Wei. The engagement between Ye Chen and the Frozen Maiden is officially ending today."

"Ever since we crippled him, his fate was sealed.Even the Phoenix Boat of the Frozen Palace is parked outside the city."

A cruel smile graced Long Wei's lips, and then he burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! Ahaha! Hahaha!"

When his laughter subsided, he sneered,

"Perfect. Ye Chen! Ye Chen, Oh, Ye Chen, did you ever imagine your life would come to this?"

"That the very person you never considered more than an ant would soon be the one to trample over you?"

"All the hatred from the past and present will be repaid to you ---with thousands of interest."

Long Wei was in a state of euphoria.

He turned to his men, who were ready for action.

"Prepare yourselves. Ye Chen won't survive this. We're going to kill him completely."

The servants and subordinates exchanged eager looks, bowing before leaving to carry out his arrangements.

At the corner of the courtyard, sitting on a plush velvet chair, was a girl with smooth and delicate features---Li Meiner.

If Ye Chen were here, he would recognize her as the very bitch who had conspired against him.

At this moment, she stood up and stepped forward, her voice hesitant.

"Master Wei, is it really necessary to go this far? Leaving him crippled might be enough. Why do we need to kill him?"

Li Meiner had always been kind-hearted, which was why she had fallen in love with the equally  kind Long Wei.

Usually, Long Wei would ignore her, but a few days ago, he had sincerely proposed to her.

Thus...She had been overjoyed.

But Master wei had also told her there was a vile enemy causing him trouble---naturally, she had helped him without hesitation.

Long Wei felt a mixture of emotions toward the girl in front of him---regret, affection, undying love.

He gently cupped her face, his fingers brushing against her cheek, and leaned in to kiss her cherry lips softly.

Afterward, he stroked her hair with a tenderness that belied the cruelty of his words.

"You don't understand, Mei. A crippled Ye Chen could still be a threat if he somehow manages to recover. We can't take that risk. He needs to be eliminated, for good."

Li Mei blushed, her face turning a soft pink as she averted her gaze, clutching the hem of her dress.

"Hehe! Brother Long is always right."

At this moment, Long Wei's eyes grew cold as he shifted his focus toward the Ye family estate in the distance.

Without another word, he perched atop his sword, channeled his qi, and took flight, soaring toward the estate with fierce determination.

As he flew, his thoughts drifted back to his past---a life filled with tragedy, regret, and cuckolding.

Long Wei was no ordinary man; he had been reborn after a catastrophic defeat in his previous life.

Back then, he had faced Ye Chen countless times and lost each battle miserably.

His downfall had been swift and brutal.

Not only had Ye Chen killed him ruthlessly, but even his own mother had been taken into his harem as a spoil of war.

All of this had happened just because he licked his lips while looking at Ye Chen's fiancée.

Is that a crime?

To begin with, he hadn't even intended to act lustfully. His lips had merely been sticky from the honey he'd eaten earlier.

At that time, he felt deeply wronged.

Though those events had not occurred yet in this life, as he had successfully prevented everything, Long Wei still felt that deep sense of fear and regret.

God knows how many times he had wished to kill Ye Chen...

"No. In this life, I won't let heaven repeat its cruelty. If the gods try to stop me, then I'll kill the gods. I, Long Wei, fear nothing, not even heaven."

With every breath, his resolve became stronger.

The mistakes of his past life were clear in his mind, the arrogance, the underestimation of his enemies.

It had all led to his downfall.

But now, in this second life, seven years before Ye Chen's rise, Long Wei had vowed to rewrite his destiny.

He had already set his plan in motion, framing Ye Chen and crippling him before his power had fully awakened.

This act had triggered the engagement's dissolution, an event that, in his previous life, had only happened four years from now on.

For this Long Wei was secretly happy.

There was also the feeling of stealing everything that belonged to Ye Chen, including his fiancée, just as Ye Chen had stolen everything from him.

In past he had also witnessed Ye Chen's divorce.

Long Wei still remembered the fiery defiance and arrogance in Ye Chen's voice back then.

[---Zhao Yumu dares to bully the weak? Do you not fear the wrath of heaven? If you think you're a genius, give me three years, and I'll show you how wrong you were!---]

[---Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west! Don't bully the poor and weak!---]

Long Wei knew the character of Ye Chen.

And soon, the confrontation with the maiden of the Frozen Palace was going to happen.

Long Wei was certain Ye Chen would tear his face apart with the Frozen Palace, further sealing his fate of demise.

"This time, I won't make the same Mistake. I've been given a second chance, and I won't waste it."

"I am reborn seven years before Ye Chen's rise. This time, I'll end his life before he even has a chance to rise."

"When the time comes, I'll be the one to send him to the underworld."

"Ahhaah!Hahahhaha!"

He laughed menacingly...

Then suddenly,

His face grew colder...

His fists clenched tightly as his sword continued to cut through the sky.
