【Chapter 059】Death of the Male and Female Protagonists
Everyone else was speechless.
Old Madam Ye's wide eyes were filled with flames of anger. If looks could kill, Ye Xian would have been torn into pieces by now.
Ye Xian turned to look at Ye Mingrui and said, "Ye Mingrui, do you want to come over and say goodbye to your mother?"
Without waiting for Ye Mingrui to answer, he turned his gaze to Ye Yongtao and Ye Mengying: "And you two, do you want to come over and see your grandmother for the last time?"
Finally, he added: "See how kind I am. I'm giving you and your family some time to say goodbye."
Ye Mingrui, who was named by him, couldn't get up at all, Ye Yongtao also collapsed on the ground and couldn't stand up, and Ye Mengying was so scared that she grabbed Mrs. Ye's arm tightly.
Ye Erfu, who had fainted, woke up when Ye Mengying screamed. But because she was afraid, she could only continue to pretend to be unconscious.
Seeing that no one took action, Ye Xian could not help but taunt: "Old woman, look at your beloved sons and grandsons, none of them are willing to get up and take a last look at you. You were so good to them, but you raised a bunch of ungrateful people."
Old Madam Ye glared at Ye Xian fiercely, "Ahhh~" You beast, you are an ungrateful person.
From the look in Old Madam Ye's eyes, it was not difficult to guess that she was scolding him. Ye Xian deliberately misinterpreted her meaning: "Don't be sad. For the sake of you raising me, I will help you deal with these ungrateful people."
Old Madam Ye: “Ahhh~” You are not allowed to touch them! If I had known this would happen, I would have strangled you to death.
Ye Xian held the sword and glanced at Ye Mingrui's family one by one.
Anyone who is seen by him feels like they will be his first target.
Ye Yongtao had lost too much blood. He held on to his last breath and knelt down with Ye Mengying to beg for mercy in front of Ye Xian: "Don't kill us, uncle, please don't kill us."
Ye Xian snorted coldly: "Why didn't you let those people who were killed by you go when they begged you? Besides, I'm not your uncle."
"We will never dare to do it again. Please forgive us. Please spare our lives."
The brother and sister look so pitiful, making Ye Xian look like a villain.
However, everyone present knew that Ye Yongtao and his sister had been vicious since childhood and had inherited all of Old Madam Ye's viciousness.
Ye Xian turned a deaf ear to the brother and sister's pleas for mercy and raised his hand to swing his sword. Two heads fell down, and blood sprayed all over the face of Madam Ye Er who was pretending to be unconscious.
Mrs. Ye Er opened her eyes subconsciously, just in time to meet the terrified gazes of Ye Yongtao and Ye Mengying before their death. There were two heads right in front of her. She rolled her eyes and fainted again.
Ye Xian didn't care whether she was really dizzy or pretending to be dizzy, and still gave her a sword.
Seeing that it was his turn, Ye Mingrui was both terrified and angry.
However, Ye Xianqie was not in a hurry to kill Ye Mingrui. Instead, he looked at his eldest son who was standing next to Nangong Chenyu and pretending to be well behaved. He pointed at the three corpses at his feet and said, "Yisheng, take out the corpse-dissolving water from you."
Ye Yisheng: “…”
"Don't dawdle, hurry up." Ye Xian urged.
Ye Yisheng walked forward, took out the corpse-dissolving water, and was about to hand it to Ye Xian when he heard Ye Xian say, "Pour the corpse-dissolving water on these three bodies."
How could Ye Xian not know what his eldest son was thinking? He did it on purpose.
Ye Yisheng: “…”
While Ye Yishen was destroying the body, Ye Xian drew his sword and walked towards Ye Mingrui.
Knowing that he would surely die today, Ye Mingrui looked at Ye Xian with hatred and laughed crazily, "Kill us! If you kill us, your family won't survive. When my eldest brother finds out, he will definitely avenge us."
Ye Xian sneered: "If your elder brother really cares about you, why doesn't he take you to Lingyuan Continent?"
Ye Mingrui snorted, "What do you know? We don't have spiritual roots. We can't live as well as we do here in Lingyuan Continent."
"Have you forgotten what Chen Yu said just now?" Ye Xian stabbed Ye Mingrui's uninjured leg with a sword and continued, "Your eldest brother came back to dig up Yisheng's spiritual roots. What do you think they are going to do by digging up Yisheng's spiritual roots?"
Ye Mingrui thought of a possibility and was shocked, but he said, "No, it's impossible."
"The old woman should be someone who knows the inside story. You can ask her." Ye Xian broke the last fantasy in his heart.
Ye Mingrui endured the pain and turned his head with difficulty to look at Old Madam Ye lying on the bed.
"Mom, my eldest brother said that when there is a child with spiritual roots among my descendants, we should contact him. He will come to pick up the child with spiritual roots and take him to Lingyuan Continent. Is that true?"
Old Madam Ye couldn't turn her head and could only glance at Ye Mingrui out of the corner of her eye, making “Ahhh~” sounds from her mouth.
After hearing what Ye Mingrui said, Nangong Chenyu took a few steps forward while Ye Yongtao's body had not yet completely turned into blood. He gathered spiritual energy in his hands and directly broke open Ye Yongtao's stomach to check Ye Yongtao's Dantian.
"Hey! Ye Yongtao actually has spiritual roots. Although he has four spiritual roots, he can still practice."
Nangong Chenyu's words were like a slap in Ye Mingrui's face.
"No, it's not like that. Don't try to fool me." Ye Mingrui simply couldn't accept the fact that he had been deceived by his own elder brother.
Nangong Chenyu said faintly: "Maybe you also have spiritual roots."
"No, it's impossible! I don't have it, there's no way I could have it. You are lying to me, you must be lying to me..." Ye Mingrui kept shaking his head.
Nangong Chenyu tutted: "You said I was lying to you, then do you have something that can contact your eldest brother?"
Ye Mingrui looked at Old Madam Ye: "Mom, did my elder brother give you something that can contact him?"
Nangong Chenyu spoke at the right time: "I have taken all your mother's things. There is nothing that can be used to contact your eldest brother."
Ye Mingrui's eyes were bloodshot. The person he hated the most at this moment was not Ye Xian who wanted to kill him. But it was his older brother whom he had only met once, and his mother who was partial to him.
"Why? Mom, why?"
Old Madam Ye closed her eyes. She thought that until her death, her second son would never know that his eldest brother had lied to him.
Ye Mingrui was disheartened and looked at Ye Xian and said, "Aren't you going to kill me?"
"Okay, I'll help you." Ye Xian pierced Ye Mingrui's heart with a sword.
A tear rolled down from the corner of Old Madam Ye's eye.
Ye Xian walked to the bedside and sneered after seeing this: "Why didn't your eldest son take you to Lingyuan Continent? I guess he disliked you, so he didn't take you with him."
Although what Ye Xian said was true, Old Madam Ye was still shaking with anger.
Ye Yisheng did not forget to add another stab: "Don't worry, old lady. When I go to Lingyuan Continent, I will send your eldest son down to reunite with you."
Old Madam Ye opened her eyes suddenly and glared at the father and son fiercely.
Ye Yisheng immediately took out the bronze mirror from his back and placed it in front of Old Madam Ye: "Take a quick look at what you look like before you die."
Madam Ye suddenly lost her breath.
Her eyes bulged.
Obviously he died with his eyes open.
I don’t know whether she died of anger or fear from her appearance.
When Madam Ye's body turned into blood, Ye Yisheng slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot one thing."
Ye Xian was puzzled: "What's the matter?"
"Didn't you say before that you would take the old woman and Old Man Ye's ashes to their eldest son?" Ye Yisheng pointed at the blood on the bed and said, "The old woman is like this, where are the ashes?"
Ye Xian slapped Ye Yisheng on the shoulder and said, "It's unlucky to carry ashes with you. When you get to Lingyuan Continent, you can just get some stray dog ashes to impersonate them."
"Is this okay? Will we be discovered?" Ye Yishen looked at Nangong Chenyu.
“It probably won’t be discovered.” Nangong Chenyu replied.
Ye Yishen set fire to the clothes of Ye Mingrui and others, and then performed several cleaning spells to remove the blood stains in the room.
After doing all this, the three of them went out.
After leaving the room, Ye Xian instructed Steward Du: "Standard Du, find a few servants who are similar in size to Ye Mingrui's family of four, and have them wear Ye Mingrui's family's clothes. Wait until evening and drive the carriage out of the city in a hurry."
The room was quiet, and Butler Du immediately understood why Ye Xian did this.
"It's the head of the family."
Soon it was evening.
A carriage hurriedly drove out from the second branch of the Ye Mansion and headed all the way to the outside of Guyuan County.
Not long after the carriage drove out, a raging fire broke out in the yard of the second lady of the Ye Mansion.
The servants of the Ye Mansion immediately began to put out the fire.
The servants who came and went worked for an hour before they put out the fire.
In the darkness, a man in black flew out of Ye Mansion. After a few jumps, he landed on the roofs of the houses on the street.
Not long after, the man in black arrived at Hua Mansion in Dongcheng.
Avoiding the guards of Hua Mansion, the man in black came to an exquisite courtyard. He entered the main room silently, and the maid who was on night guard was knocked unconscious by a blow from his hand.
When he came out of the main room, he was holding someone in his hand. He did not leave, but went to the side room.
Walking to the bed, he threw the person in his hand to the ground.
The person lying on the bed heard the sound, woke up immediately and opened his eyes. Mu Ran saw a man in black standing beside the bed. He whispered, "Who are you?"
The man in black did not answer him, but instead tapped the person's acupoint on the ground with one hand.
The next moment, the people on the ground slowly woke up.
After seeing where he was, the person on the ground sat up abruptly. Seeing the man in black in the moonlight, she was about to scream when she felt the cold tip of a sword against her neck.
The man's cold voice rang out in the quiet room: "Tell me, where is Hua Lingyao? Otherwise I will kill the person on the bed."
"Who are you? What do you want to see my aunt about?" Hua Yueyi asked boldly.
A beam of white light flew out from the black-clothed man's fingertips and landed on the bed. The next moment, the person on the bed let out a muffled groan.
Hua Yueyi asked with concern: "Zichen, how are you?"
"I'm fine, don't worry."
The person on the bed was Huo Zichen.
He was released from the Ye Mansion only after Ye Yishen broke his legs.
After leaving Ye Mansion, he found that he could not contact any of his men. The person driving the carriage was the subordinate who had come to Ye Mansion to meet him before. The subordinate's martial arts skills were crippled and his leg was broken.
His condition was not suitable for long journeys, so he could only stay in Guyuan County. Afterwards, Hua Yueyi secretly took him back to the Hua Mansion. He originally wanted to recuperate in the Hua Mansion, but before the night was over, someone came to his door.
The man in black said impatiently: "I have a bad patience. If you don't answer my questions, the person on the bed will no longer be a man."
Hua Yueyi said softly, "I don't know where my aunt went."
"Don't cry until you see the coffin."
After the man in black finished speaking, a white light appeared at his fingertips again.
Hua Yueyi hurriedly said, "No, don't hurt Zichen. I'll tell you everything."
The white light on the black-clothed man's fingertips disappeared immediately.
Hua Yueyi didn't say anything right away, but instead stated the conditions: "When I tell you where my aunt is, you must let us go."
"You are not qualified to negotiate with me." The man in black said coldly: "Speak, or die."
Hua Yueyi suddenly raised her hand, and three silver needles flew out from the bracelet on her wrist and headed straight for the face of the man in black.
The man in black simply snapped his fingers, and the three silver needles stopped in mid-air, neither moving forward nor falling to the ground.
Hua Yueyi's pupils constricted, her eyes full of disbelief.
The man in black waved his hand, and the three silver needles immediately turned around and flew towards Hua Yueyi.
With a sword on her neck, Hua Yueyi didn't dare to dodge at all. She could only close her eyes and wait for the silver needle to fly into her body.
After waiting for a while, the imagined pain did not occur. Hua Yueyi opened her eyes and saw three silver needles flying towards the person on the bed.
"No, don't."
Following her voice, the three silver needles suddenly stopped.
The man in black snorted coldly: "I'll give you one last chance. Where is Hua Lingyao?"
Hua Yueyi didn't dare to play tricks anymore and could only pray in her heart that after she said it, the man in black would be able to get past her and Huo Zichen.
"My aunt went to the Western Qi Kingdom."
"When did you go?" asked the man in black.
"Five days ago."
"So when will she be back?"
"I have no idea."
After getting the answer he wanted, the man in black planned to kill Huo Zichen and Hua Yueyi on the bed. But just as the murderous intent arose in his heart, he suddenly felt as if someone was strangling his throat.
The sword in his hand couldn't stab at all.
Just when he was puzzled, two sword energies suddenly appeared in the room, one fell on Hua Yueyi and the other fell on Huo Zichen.
In a moment, both of them were no longer breathing.
As soon as the two men died, the man in black felt his body lighten, as if he had broken free from some shackles. He didn't have time to dwell on this strange feeling.
He turned his head and looked towards the place where the sword energy came from.
A man in white clothes walked out from the shadows. After seeing the other person's face clearly, the man in black asked in surprise: "Why are you here?"
"Of course I followed you."
The person who spoke was Nangong Chenyu.
The man in black is naturally Ye Yishen.
Nangong Chenyu walked up to Hua Yueyi, squatted down and examined her carefully. Only after he was sure that the other party was dead did he destroy the body.
He also destroyed the body of Huo Zichen lying on the bed.
After dealing with the two people, Nangong Chenyu left the side room and entered the main room. After searching the house for a while, he said to Ye Yisheng who was following him, "Let's go back."
Ye Yisheng couldn't help but ask curiously: "What were you doing just now?"
"Pretend that the two of them eloped." Nangong Chenyu gave Ye Yisheng a look that said, "You are so stupid."
Ye Yisheng: “…”
