Ye Xiongba was practicing in his own quiet room. Like Qin Peng, he had ordinary fire-attributed spiritual roots, but his cultivation was higher than Qin Peng's, at the third stage of Jindan. His family background was much richer than Qin Peng's, and he was more generous than Qin Peng and willing to spend money. Therefore, he had many cultivators working for him, and he also had many spies!

At this time, the spy arranged beside Qin Peng came specially to report to him everything that happened in the mourning hall of Qin Xiyao's villa.

"Hmph! Qin Peng and his daughter are both bad people!" Ye Xiongba cursed angrily.

How dare they make money by spreading rumors based on the rumors he spread? They are so bold!

Although Ye Xiongba is the head of the Ye family and the local tyrant of Wutong City, he also loves face! When Qin Xiyao's parents were in a car accident, the head of the Ye family was Ye Xiongba's father. Therefore, when Qin Xiyao needed his help the most, he was powerless!

Just for this reason, some people secretly called him treacherous!

Therefore, when Qin Peng came to him some time ago to discuss his children's marriage, he politely refused!

Qin Peng still hadn't given up! He came to him again a few days ago and told him about Qin Xiyao's death in the Baicao Valley fire. His tone sounded quite sad.

He just couldn't find a single tear on Qin Peng's face, and he could even feel the corners of Qin Peng's mouth turned up when he spoke to him!

Qin Peng's disgusting look made him nauseous! He excused himself by saying that Ye Jian was not feeling well and was not suitable for discussing marriage. He said that if he waited for a while, maybe Qin Xiyao would be lucky enough to survive.

It's only been a short time! Can't Qin Peng wait any longer?

Qin Peng failed in his attempt to kill someone with a borrowed knife from him, so he started to exploit his reputation?

Ye Jian is seriously ill, and Qin Peng and Qin Yuwei are so eager to establish their personalities and show off their faces?

It seems that Qin Yuwei doesn’t really like Ye Jian, but likes Ye Jian’s status in the Ye family!

He knew that Qin Peng really wanted to marry his precious daughter Qin Yuwei into the Ye family, but in his eyes, Qin Yuwei was not as good as Qin Xiyao!

Qin Yuwei's talent is at best a top-grade fire spiritual root, while Qin Xiyao has the most popular chaos spiritual root among cultivators in Xuankong Continent!

It is currently rumored that her spiritual roots are damaged. Who knows if Qin Peng is interfering in order to marry his daughter into the Ye family!

Anyway, his Ye family has plenty of resources and connections. When the time comes, he can marry Qin Xiyao into the Ye family and find a highly skilled therapist to treat her body. If he can repair the damaged Chaos Spirit Root in her body, he will gain both fame and fortune!

Even if the repairs weren't good, at least his reputation was still there! At most, it would just be one more mouth to feed. His Ye family was wealthy, so they wouldn't go broke just to support one more person!

Moreover, his people secretly investigated and obtained reliable information: Although Qin Xiyao's spiritual roots were damaged, her brain was not stupid!

If Qin Xiyao could make a name for herself in the business world and help him manage the Ye family's business affairs, how would Ye Xiongba suffer any loss?

He was just angry at this brat Ye Jian. Why was he so stubborn?

She had to go against him. He told Ye Jian to stay away from Qin Yuwei, saying that Qin Yuwei was not a good match for him. But he just wouldn't listen and had to go against him!

He deliberately appeared with Qin Yuwei in public, making it known to everyone!

He knew that Ye Jian did this on purpose to upset him, so he had always known that Qin Yuwei and Ye Jian were seen together in public, but he did not express his opinion and just pretended to be deaf and dumb!

He asked Qin Peng to persuade Qin Xiyao to take the initiative to cancel the engagement, but it was just a cover to paint a rosy picture for Qin Peng.

Ye Xiongba’s real purpose is to take the initiative of the marriage contract into his own hands!

After all, the engagement between Qin Xiyao and Ye Jian was made between Ye Xiongba and Qin Xiyao's parents. If Qin Xiyao unilaterally cancels the engagement with Ye Jian, it will not be counted without his consent!

If Ye Jian was determined not to marry Qin Xiyao, he would go along with it and agree to let Qin Xiyao and Ye Jian break off their engagement;

If Ye Jian could accept Qin Xiyao after getting to know her, he would not agree to Qin Xiyao and Ye Jian canceling their engagement.

Qin Peng forcing Qin Xiyao to cancel the engagement was just wishful thinking!

Even if Ye Jian really broke off his engagement with Qin Xiyao, he would not agree to let Qin Yuwei enter the Ye family!

Qin Peng wants his precious daughter to marry his precious son Ye Jian and fulfill his dream!

"Dad! Xiyao is back? Is she okay?"

Ye Jian came outside the quiet room and just heard Ye Xiongba's spy mention the news that Qin Xiyao had returned. He instantly became excited.

"What does it have to do with you? If you have nothing to do, just stay away!"

Looking at his disappointing son, Ye Xiong was furious. He had good genes, but how could he have given birth to such a thing? Not only did he drive away the daughter-in-law he had chosen for him, but he also drove away the three tigers he kept at home, the three brothers of the Shan family!

When Ye Xiongba learned that someone was secretly calling him treacherous, his face turned pale and he wished he could pull out those who cursed him behind his back and chop them into pieces!

When he secretly ordered people to investigate and found out that it was the three brothers of the Shan family who were the first to scold him, the expression on his face was very colorful!

His respect for Shan Hui gradually changed from sincerity at the beginning to hypocrisy!

Due to the strength of the Shan brothers, he didn't dare to act rashly!

He originally wanted to boil the Shan brothers like a frog in warm water, but he didn't expect that his good son would anger the three Shan brothers and drive them away first!

He hadn't even fired the three Shan brothers yet, but they came to him and handed in their resignations, trying to draw a clear line between them!

Currently, no one in his Ye family is strong enough to surpass the Shan brothers, so he had no choice but to let them go.

"Dad! Mr. Shan's resignation really has nothing to do with me. After I fell into a coma, I really don't know what happened!"

Ye Jian said with a look of grievance that he had not found Qin Xiyao's whereabouts at that time. He really thought she had died in the fire, and he fainted due to excessive grief.

"Mr. Shan was able to send you back safely, which was quite good of him!"

"Why did you bring the Shan brothers to Baicao Valley, and why did you bring Qin Yuwei with you? Now that your wife has been taken away by someone else, are you happy now?"

If it weren't for the fact that Ye Jian had just recovered, he would have beaten him up! He had a good engagement with his wife, but instead of handling the relationship properly, he was running around with wild flowers in his hands.

"Isn't Xiyao back?" Ye Jian still didn't understand what was going on.

The person is back, but is his heart with you?

"You let Yao'er be bullied by Yehua. Will she recognize you when she comes back?" Ye Tianba snorted coldly.

"Then what should we do?" Ye Jian said belatedly.

"Hurry up and change your clothes, and follow me to the Qin family to mourn!" Ye Xiongba glared at Ye Jian: "Why don't you go now? What are you standing there for?"

Looking at his disappointing son standing in front of him, Ye Xiongba became more and more annoyed!

Ye Jian brought disaster upon himself, and his father suffered as well!

Ye Jian caused trouble, and he, as his father, had to clean up the mess.
