Ye Ziyi and Tian Kun were very surprised to hear Xiao Chen's words.

"Achen, are you in the state of Hua Jin now?"

Ye Ziyi looked at Xiao Chen and asked in surprise.

She has been under a lot of pressure recently and has been dealing with things here, so she hasn't paid much attention to Xiao Chen.

Therefore, she didn't know anything about Xiao Chen's status in the ancient martial arts world.

"No, it's the peak of the late Dark Energy stage."

Xiao Chen shook his head.

"However, I should be able to fight against a person in the late stage of Hua Jin, but winning...is probably impossible."

“…”

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Ye Ziyi was even more surprised, while Tian Kun was already stunned.

At the peak of the late Dark Energy stage, he could fight against someone at the late Transformation Energy stage? Damn it, is it really necessary to be so evil and so against the will of heaven?

It’s hard to imagine!

"Brother Chen, they kept looking over here, and they seemed very fearful... Could it be that they knew how awesome you are?"

Bai Ye turned his head, looked at Ye Rong and the others, and said to Xiao Chen.

"Let them do whatever they want. If they keep complaining, just give them a beating."

Xiao Chen didn't care much.

"Zi Yi, if I really beat up your uncles and cousins, please don't get angry with me."

"No way."

Ye Ziyi shook her head. Family affection among aristocratic families is inherently weak. Except for a few people, everyone else has their own interests, which is only slightly better than strangers.

As for these uncles, who have been targeting her, they are worse than strangers!

If it weren't for their seniority and being members of the Ye family, she would have kicked them out long ago.

Soon, Ye Rong and others finished their meal in a hurry and left.

Obviously, they didn't want to stay any longer, so as to avoid any more conflicts with Xiao Chen.

They were not afraid just now, but now they are really a little scared.

Ye Jing nodded to Xiao Chen before leaving.

Now his attitude towards Xiao Chen has also changed.

Before it was purely because of the Fifteen Heartbreak Powder, but now...he was wary and also wanted to make friends.

With such a young talent, his future is limitless!

Of course, if he knew that Xiao Chen was not at the Hua Jin level at all, but at the peak of the late An Jin level, he would probably be even more shocked.

After dinner, Ye Ziyi went to deal with some things.

Xiao Chen did not disturb them, but called Tian Kun to Bai Ye and Chu Kuangren's room.

"Mr. Xiao."

Tian Kun was a little nervous. He didn't know why Xiao Chen called him over alone, or whether he was dissatisfied with his performance or something.

"Um."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Tian Kun, please sit down."

"good."

Tian Kun nodded and sat on the chair next to him.

"Don't be nervous. I heard what Ziyi said about recent events. You have been loyal and have helped her share some of the responsibilities. That's great."

Xiao Chen took out a cigarette, handed one to Tian Kun, then passed it to Chu Kuangren and Bai Ye, and finally lit one himself.

"It's all my fault."

Tian Kun said hurriedly.

Once upon a time, when he followed Ye Ziyi to Longhai for the first time, he looked down on Xiao Chen, thinking that since he was a member of the Ye family, this was how it should be!

Later, Ye Ziyi encountered a killer and was rescued by Xiao Chen. When he brought his men over, he wanted to kill Xiao Chen.

Later, for the Xuanyuan Sword, they went to Longhai again. He worked for Ye Jing, and the two sides clashed again.

However, Xiao Chen used powerful means to sweep away the Ye family's Hua Jin, and even Ye Jing was not spared.

This also caused Ye Ziyi's dissatisfaction, and she warned him many times and almost died.

From then on, he knew that the only person he should be loyal to was Ye Ziyi, and it must be Ye Ziyi.

Otherwise, not only will he die, but his family... will also die!

"I heard Zi Yi tell me about recent events, but I know she is good at keeping things secret and there are some things she won't tell me."

Xiao Chen looked at Tian Kun and said slowly.

"For example, tell me about the Ye family."

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Tian Kun was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, Mr. Xiao."

"Let's talk about Ye Rong and the others first. What are they doing here?"

Xiao Chen looked at Tian Kun and asked.

"It's like this, Mr. Xiao. The Ye family used to be a hidden family. They had some businesses outside, but not much... Later, the young lady took over the Ye family's businesses outside. In just a few years, the Ye family's businesses outside developed rapidly and became a behemoth!"

Tian Kun did not dare to hide anything and first introduced the situation of the Ye family.

"Since then, I have followed the young lady. I know that everything is due to her... She said that the domestic environment does not allow it, and it is difficult to develop! Therefore, after her operation, more assets of the Ye family are overseas!"

Hearing Tian Kun's words, Xiao Chen was secretly surprised. Being able to provoke the Gebil family to gamble with them showed how powerful the Ye family was overseas!

Otherwise, would the Gabil family need to gamble?

There is no such thing as 'fairness' when the strong treat the weak!

If the Ye family is weak, then the Gabil family can just take whatever they want, there is no need to gamble at all!

Although, there are many kinds of taking, such as robbery!

The bet also shows that the Ye family is not a weakling when facing the Gaibil family, but an equally heavyweight.

Even if it is slightly weaker, it won’t be much weaker!

If the Ye family robs the family by force and strikes back, it will be enough to make the Gebil family pay a price, or even suffer serious injuries!

Only in this situation can there be "fairness".

This is similar to "a weak country has no diplomacy". If you are weak, don't expect to be treated fairly, and don't expect others to respect you!

"Under such circumstances, the young lady's status in the Ye family has risen rapidly. Even many elders in the Ye family have to be polite to her when they see her! The Ye family also has a few geniuses, but they dare not act presumptuously in front of the young lady!"

Tian Kun felt quite proud when he mentioned this.

"However, it is precisely because of this that many people in the Ye family have become interested. They are jealous of the huge wealth in the hands of the young lady..."

"Oh, so they just want to gain benefits for themselves?"

Xiao Chen laughed mockingly.

"No, they not only want to gain benefits, but also want to... seize power!"

Tian Kun shook his head.

"Seizing power? Damn, this is a bit dark!"

Bai Ye couldn't stand it anymore and stared.

"So, they not only want the golden eggs, but they also want to kill the hen that laid the golden eggs?"

"Yeah, about the same."

Tian Kun nodded.

"Moreover, they found a very good reason...a reason that even the old Patriarch of the Ye family had to consider!"

"Is she a woman?"

Madman Chu looked at Tian Kun and suddenly said.

"Yes."

Tian Kun looked at Chu Kuangren and nodded.

"They said that the young lady is a woman and will eventually get married, which is like spilled water... The property of our Ye family should be managed by the Ye family itself, not handed over to an outsider! The Ye family should take back the power in the hands of the young lady from now on, so that she won't know too much. When she gets married in the future, she will tell many secrets to outsiders."

"Oh."

Listening to Tian Kun's words, Xiao Chen laughed angrily.

"How shameless!"

"This is normal, especially within some families. This kind of thinking is even more normal."

Beside him, Madman Chu spoke slowly.

"The concepts of these ancient martial arts families are still very conservative."

"This is not conservative thinking, but... greed!"

Xiao Chen sneered.

"They are not doing this for the Ye family, fearing that Zi Yi will harm the interests of the Ye family. Instead, they want to seize the power in Zi Yi's hands to achieve their goals."

"That's true."

Madman Chu nodded.

Tian Kun looked at Xiao Chen, hesitated, and still did not dare to tell him that someone in the Ye family had proposed to marry Ye Ziyi off to another family.

He was afraid that if he told it out, Xiao Chen would be able to kill someone.

After all, this matter has not yet been decided. As long as we get through this crisis, the marriage plan should not be successful.

So, after hesitating, he decided not to say anything.

"Are the ones who want to seize power Ye Rong and his gang the only ones?"

Xiao Chen looked at Tian Kun and asked.

"Not only them, but also the previous generation... In the Ye family, the influence of Ye Rong's generation is still a little less, even less than that of the young lady! Today's Ye family is more controlled by the people of the Third Uncle's generation."

Tian Kun shook his head and said.

"You are so old, and you still want to seize power? Are you going to take it with you into the coffin when you die?"

Bai Ye taunted.

"No, you overlooked one thing."

Xiao Chen looked at Bai Ye and shook his head.

"They are not ordinary people, but ancient martial arts practitioners. Their physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and their lifespan is much longer than that of ordinary people... As long as nothing unexpected happens, it is not difficult for Hua Jin to live to be a hundred!"

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Bai Ye was stunned: "Fuck, is this true? Can Hua Jin live to be 100 years old?"

"Yeah, about the same."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"What about the dark power?"

Bai Ye asked hurriedly.

"If it's in the middle stage of Dark Energy, then eighty years old will be no problem."

Xiao Chen thought about it and said.

"Moreover, although both are 80 years old, the quality of life of ancient martial arts practitioners is much higher than that of ordinary people... Although ordinary people are still alive at the age of 80, most of them are just eating and waiting to die! But for ancient martial arts practitioners at the age of 80, they are just like ordinary people in their 60s."

"Damn it, I must work hard to cultivate so that I can still sleep with female celebrities when I am 80 years old!"

Bai Ye seemed to have found motivation.

Hearing Bai Ye's words, Xiao Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and then rolled his eyes. Why was he discussing this with this guy?

However, after Bai Ye's interruption, the anger in his heart lessened a lot, and his murderous intent was not as strong.

"What if Zi Yi wins this time? Will all the crises be resolved?"

Xiao Chen looked at Tian Kun and asked.

"Well, almost. After all, the old patriarch is also hesitant... He likes the young lady as his granddaughter very much, but some ideas make him feel that the young lady should not control the Ye family's business empire..."

Tian Kun nodded.

“Heh, the old patriarch of your Ye family is not as good as old man Su.”

Xiao Chen laughed mockingly.

"It's a different era now, and there are still such outdated ideas."

Tian Kun remained silent. He did not dare to comment much on the old patriarch of the Ye family.

"That is to say, Ye Rong and the others are eager to lose this bet, right? Even if it means losing the entire property of Cresna Island?"

Xiao Chen looked at Tian Kun and asked.

"Yes."

Tian Kun nodded.

"Compared to the industries on Cresna Island, they value the power in the hands of the young lady more... After all, Cresna Island is only a part of the Ye family's business empire, or even a small part."
