"I'll take care of everything," Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
"You? Who are you?" Old Master Liu stared at Ye Xingchen.
"Your great-grandson-in-law, Liu Qingmei's future man," Ye Xingchen said with a smile. "I think it's easy for you to understand how I introduce myself, right?"
"You are... the man Liu Qingmei brought back?" Old Master Liu was even more furious. He roared, "You actually dared to come to our Liu family! You're courting death..."
"Don't get excited. You're getting old. Getting so excited can hurt your health." Ye Xingchen frowned. "Old man, I didn't mean anything by it. I just wanted to make it clear that Liu Qingmei would be my woman from now on before I took her away."
"But your people wouldn't listen at all, they insisted on keeping me here to lecture me, and now look what's happened, the family banquet can't even take place, it's really not my fault."
Ye Xingchen still looked completely innocent as he spoke, which only fueled Old Master Liu's anger. He clenched his fists tightly and said, "So, you knocked down everyone in my Liu family and then dissipated their demonic power?"
"Yes." Ye Xingchen nodded. "People should walk the right path. You and your descendants are human, but you practice demonic arts."
"This will incur divine retribution."
"Heh, what a joke! Our Liu family has been established in Jiyang City for a hundred years, and I am still alive and well at the age of one hundred. Who do you think will be punished by heaven?" Old Master Liu laughed angrily.
He pointed at Ye Xingchen and said, "Anyone who dares to oppose the Liu family will not have a good ending. Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving alive."
"It's pointless." Ye Xingchen shook his head. "Don't you think I'm your God's Curse?"
Grandpa Liu's gaze froze, and he looked up at Ye Xingchen in astonishment.
Yes, he always believed that the Liu family could ignore divine retribution and do whatever they wanted, because he had acted recklessly for nearly a hundred years without suffering any divine punishment.
But Ye Xingchen's words suddenly made him realize that the kid in front of him was none other than Tianqian.
"What gives you the right to represent Heaven?" Old Master Liu was still being stubborn.
"I don't represent the heavens, but I can destroy your Liu family and make your Liu family disappear." Ye Xingchen slowly raised his head and looked at Grandpa Liu.
Old Master Liu's eyes flashed with green light, his hair was disheveled, and his expression was twisted and ferocious.
Suddenly, a green light flashed in his eyes, and his thoughts dispersed.
Liu Qingmei frowned and staggered back a few steps. She quickly turned her head away, not daring to look at Master Liu again.
Because she knew this was Master Liu's sorcery, and that anyone with a weak will would be affected.
This thing had no effect on Ye Xingchen. What Master Liu cultivated was nothing more than spiritual power and mental power, and snakes were best at these kinds of things.
This thing only affects the mind, causing people to fall into a hallucination and go crazy, but Ye Xingchen's divine sense is far superior.
He glared back suddenly, and Master Liu screamed in agony as blood streamed from his eyes.
He collapsed to the ground, his eyes already blind.
"The demonic arts you cultivate are still these low-class things. Don't try to use these childish tricks on me, they won't work." Ye Xingchen slowly shook his head: "If you're not convinced, then feel free to use whatever other methods you have."
"Boy, I'll make you die!" Old Master Liu roared, tearing his clothes in front of his chest with both hands.
On his chest was tattooed the head of a green snake.
The snake's head was exceptionally ferocious. Invisibly, a giant snake head formed in mid-air and roared towards Ye Xingchen.
With a grab of his right hand, Chixiao appeared in his hand. Ye Xingchen gave a soft shout, and with a tremor of his right hand, several sword energies formed on the tip of the sword. He swirled the sword energy in his hand and slashed back with his sword.
*Pfft...* The sword energy struck the snake's head squarely. *Boom...* Centered on Ye Xingchen, the land within a radius of ten zhang trembled slightly and sank several inches.
However, the snake's head didn't last more than a few seconds under Ye Xingchen's sword before exploding into a cloud of black smoke with a loud bang.
At the same time, Grandpa Liu spat out a mouthful of blood, collapsed to the ground, and could no longer struggle.
"Stop struggling." Ye Xingchen sighed and said, "The difference in strength cannot be bridged. Go and invite Liu Sanqing out. I will meet him here in three days. At that time, whether you want revenge or kill me, I will accompany you."
"Three days, you just wait..." Old Master Liu roared with all his might, making no attempt to hide his hatred for Ye Xingchen.
"Let's go." Ye Xingchen turned to look at Liu Qingmei.
Liu Qingmei nodded slowly, glanced indifferently at her family, and then silently left.
"Don't you feel that things have developed in a way that has exceeded your expectations?" Ye Xingchen asked Liu Qingmei.
"That's a bit of a feeling," Liu Qingmei sighed softly. "If you do this, the Liu family will probably have to withdraw from the veneration of the five great immortal families in Jiyang City."
"What, you're reluctant to part with it?" Ye Xingchen asked.
“I’m not reluctant to part with them.” Liu Qingmei shook her head and said quietly, “I have never liked these things, and I even feel a bit of deep hatred for them.”
"Comparatively speaking, I still prefer an ordinary family, at least that way I wouldn't have to bear so many burdens from birth."
"Hehe, if everyone in the world could see things as clearly as you do," Ye Xingchen chuckled. "Unfortunately, people in the world don't understand."
“Everyone has their own thoughts,” Liu Qingmei said calmly. “But in the end, the outcome is the same. There’s nothing in the Liu family that we can’t give up.”
"Have you ever met Liu Sanqing?" Ye Xingchen asked.
“I have never seen him.” Liu Qingmei shook her head: “I have only dreamed about him. I only know that he is a handsome man and that there is a portrait of him in our ancestral hall.”
"He can't see you or touch you until you're 28," Ye Xingchen said. "Do you know why he chose you?"
"Why?" Liu Qingmei looked up at Ye Xingchen.
"Because you have a primordial energy in your body, which can nurture a snake fetus very well," Ye Xingchen said. "Liu Sanqing probably just wants an offspring. His previous wife couldn't conceive a snake fetus for him because she lacked primordial energy."
"Can I?" Liu Qingmei was taken aback. She had never known what Ye Xingchen was saying. In fact, she had been wondering why Liu Sanqing would take a liking to her, but she could never figure it out.
After Ye Xingchen said that, she understood. So that was the real reason why Liu Sanqing was interested in her. It really was a case of "possessing a treasure invites trouble".
