【Chapter 131】Tavern Conspiracy
As Ye Mingze was walking in the crowd, a sentence suddenly rang in his mind.
[Qihua Restaurant. 】
Just four words made Ye Mingze's expression change several times.
Ye Xuan was walking behind Ye Mingze, and as Ye Mingze suddenly stopped, Ye Xuan almost bumped into him.
"Father."
Ye Mingze lowered his eyes, his expression returned to normal: "Father has something else to do, you go back to the Ye Mansion first."
After saying that, he sent a message to Ye Xuan: [When you return to the Ye Mansion, find an opportunity to contact Ye Yishen. Find out who his father is and where he has lived all these years. 】
Ye Xuan trusts his father Ye Mingze very much. Generally, he will do whatever Ye Mingze asks him to do.
"Yes, father."
After leaving the Qi family martial arts arena, the father and son walked to the right and left respectively.
Qihua Restaurant.
The competition had just ended and it was dinner time, so the restaurant was almost full.
After entering Qihua Restaurant, Ye Mingze went straight upstairs.
The waiter at the restaurant obviously knew him. He hurriedly called out "Senior Ye" and let him go upstairs by himself.
Soon, Ye Mingze stopped in front of a private room on the third floor. He raised his hand and knocked on the door three times.
"Dong Dong Dong~"
The door of the private room was opened from the inside, and a deep male voice came out.
"Come in."
Ye Mingze entered the private room and closed the door.
When he looked up, he met the people in the private room. The other person's eyes were as sharp as a blade, which could cut a person's skin with just a glance, making him feel uneasy.
"Qi, Master Qi." His voice was trembling.
The person in the private room was the head of the Qi family.
"Ye Mingze, how do you want to explain what happened today?"
"I didn't know Ye Yisheng was really a member of the Ye family."
"I don't know." The voice of the head of the Qi family was as cold as ice, like a thousand-year-old ice that could penetrate into a person's bones: "Your words of ignorance caused my Qi family to lose 500,000 middle-grade spirit stones in vain."
Ye Mingze's body trembled, and he lowered his head to defend himself: "Master Qi, before Ye Yisheng went on the ring to compete, I heard Ye Mingpei say that Ye Yisheng was Ye Mingjing's son. But Ye Mingjing only gave birth to a daughter, and you also know this."
Patriarch Qi sneered: "So, you think Ye Yisheng is not a member of the Ye family?"
"yes."
Ye Mingze didn't think that his guess was wrong, it was his problem. Anyone standing in his shoes would have the same idea as him.
Patriarch Qi tapped his hands on the table: "Then tell me, Ye Yisheng is not a member of the Ye family, how can he detect the direct bloodline of the Ye family?"
Ye Mingze argued: "Ye Mingpei gave me the wrong information. I didn't know Ye Yisheng was a direct descendant of the Ye family's ancestor."
Patriarch Qi gave a mocking smile: "Your Ye family's ancestor has no fertility at all, so how can there be direct descendants?"
Looking up, Ye Mingze was shocked and subconsciously retorted: "This is impossible."
"If you don't believe it, you can go back to the Ye family and ask the older elders of the Ye family. They are all insiders."
Originally, the head of the Qi family also thought that Ye Yishen was a descendant of the Ye family's ancestor. After all, he was on the ring when the test took place and was a close witness.
But before coming to see Ye Mingze, his ancestor told him a story about the ancestor of the Ye family.
Many years ago, there was a woman who liked the ancestor of the Ye family, but the ancestor of the Ye family did not like that woman. The woman had an admirer who thought that if the Ye family ancestor did not exist in the world, the woman would like him.
So he resorted to all means to poison the ancestor of the Ye family, wanting to kill him. The reason why he poisoned was because he couldn't beat the ancestor of the Ye family. As a result, the ancestor of the Ye family was rescued, but he lost his fertility.
When his ancestor told him about this matter, the head of the Qi family guessed that the woman's admirer was most likely the ancestor himself.
However, the ancestor of the Ye family obviously still doesn't know what his ancestor has done, otherwise he would have come to kill him long ago.
After hearing what Patriarch Qi said, Ye Mingze murmured softly: "If Ye Yisheng is not a direct descendant of the Ye family's ancestor, then why does the bloodline stone emit red light when testing blood?"
Speaking of this, Ye Mingze suddenly thought of something.
"Could it be that Ye Yisheng is——"
He swallowed hard before he finished speaking. Then he shook his head and said, "No, it's impossible. When I left that year, the child was already breathing out more than breathing in. It's impossible for him to still be alive."
The head of the Qi family frowned: "Who is the child you are talking about?"
Feeling the oppressive gaze, Ye Mingze gritted his teeth and told the truth: "It's Ye Xian's eldest son, he is about the same age as Xuan'er. When Xuan'er was six years old, his spiritual roots were not detected. So I took people to the Mortal Continent."
The head of the Qi family understood and continued, "You dug up the spiritual roots of Ye Xian's son and gave them to your son?"
Ye Mingze nodded: "Yes."
The head of the Qi family knew that Ye Mingze was not a soft-hearted person, so he couldn't help asking: "Why didn't you kill Ye Xian's son?"
After all, his spiritual roots had been dug up by someone, so killing people was just a convenient thing to do. His requirement is that Ye Xian must be alive. As long as Ye Xian is alive, he can be used to threaten Ye Chenyuan sooner or later.
"We can't kill him. That child has a life-saving method left by a powerful person. As long as his life is in danger, he will automatically protect his master."
Ye Mingze still feels a little scared when he thinks of the night when he dug out Ye Xian’s son’s spiritual roots.
After digging out the spiritual root, he asked the person who went with him to kill the child. Just as the child was about to die at the hands of that man, a white attack suddenly came out of the child's body, and the man who went with him died without even a scream.
He was so scared that he took his spiritual root and hurried back to Lingyuan Continent. After that, he never dared to go to the Mortal Continent again, for fear that the people behind the child would kill him to avenge the child.
"So it is possible that Ye Yisheng is Ye Xian's son." The head of the Qi family speculated.
Ye Mingze shook his head and rejected it: "Ye Yishen is a cultivator, he should not be Ye Xian's son." After all, he had dug out the spiritual roots of Ye Xian's son.
The head of the Qi family sneered: "You father and son can dig out other people's spiritual roots for your own use, why can't Ye Xian and his son? Don't forget, you just said that Ye Xian's son has a life-saving method left by a powerful person."
Ye Mingze was speechless.
Just an automatic attack to protect the master can kill a Nascent Soul cultivator in seconds. It can be seen that the person who left a life-saving method on Ye Xian's son is very powerful.
If the other party wants Ye Xian and his son to obtain spiritual roots and embark on the path of cultivation, it is not impossible.
When Ye Mingze thought that Ye Yishen might be Ye Chenyuan’s grandson, he felt like a sword was hanging over his head. If he wasn't careful, his head would be chopped off.
No, he had to go back quickly to find out Ye Yishen’s identity. If Ye Yishen is really Ye Xian’s son, he must not be allowed to recognize Ye Chenyuan.
At this time, the head of the Qi family said the purpose of asking Ye Mingze to come here: "If you and your son want to survive, Ye Yisheng can't stay."
Ye Mingze, who was originally very anxious, calmed down instantly after hearing this.
He said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Not to mention that Ye Yisheng is accompanied by a disciple of Yunjue Palace, if Ye Yisheng is really Ye Xian's son, and I dare to attack him, his life-saving means will definitely kill me first."
The head of the Qi family, who had been prepared, took out a porcelain bottle and said, "Find a way to make Ye Yisheng take the medicine in the porcelain bottle before tomorrow's competition."
Ye Mingze picked up the porcelain bottle and asked, "What will happen if Ye Yisheng eats this pill?"
"The cultivation level will be raised to a higher level within one hour."
Ye Mingze was puzzled. He wanted to take the other person's life and also give him his cultivation?
Perhaps seeing his confusion, the Qi family head continued: "You cannot use spiritual energy within the next three days. If you use spiritual energy, your body will explode and die."
"I will let Ye Yisheng take this pill tonight."
Ye Mingze clenched the porcelain bottle in his hand.
As long as he lets Ye Yisheng take the medicine in the porcelain bottle, Ye Yisheng will surely die. After all, Ye Yishen is going to participate in the competition, so it is impossible for him not to use spiritual energy.
The head of the Qi family added: "If you succeed in this matter, you won't have to make up for the 500,000 middle-grade spirit stones that my Qi family lost today. On the contrary, if you fail, then..."
The head of the Qi family did not say the remaining words, but Ye Mingze already understood.
After leaving Qihua Restaurant, Ye Mingze did not rush back to the Ye family, but went to the Yu family to find the seventh elder of Taihua Sect to inquire about Nangong Chenyu.
Unfortunately, there are many people who want to ask the Seventh Elder about Nangong Chenyu. With the Seventh Elder's strength, he doesn't need to give face to anyone. Therefore, he refused everyone's request to see him.
Unable to meet the Seventh Elder, everyone settled for the next best thing and met Yu Bu, who was also a disciple of Yunjue Palace.
Yubu had only met Nangong Chenyu on the day he officially became a disciple of Yunjue Palace. What he heard most in Yunjue Palace was the deeds of Jun Han, the Taoist partner of Nangong Chenyu's elder brother Nangong Suhao.
However, in response to everyone's questions, he only answered with three words: "I don't know."
On this side, after Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen were brought back to the Ye family, Ye Chenyuan arranged them to live in a courtyard with rich spiritual energy and quiet environment.
"You guys take a rest first. I'll come back to see you later. If you need anything, just tell the servant at the gate."
"good."
After settling the two people, Ye Chenyuan hurried to the family's meeting hall.
After looking around the entire yard, Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen sat down at the tea table and drank tea.
After a while, a servant brought dinner over.
Plate after plate of exquisite dishes were placed on the table until the entire round table was full. A maid in a green dress walked up to the two men and bowed to them.
"Dinner is ready, please enjoy your meal, gentlemen."
"Thank you."
They both stood up and sat down at the round table.
Seeing the maid holding a small booklet, Ye Yisheng asked curiously: "What are you doing with the booklet?"
"The master asked me to write down the dishes that the two young masters like to eat."
Hearing this, the two looked at each other and started eating.
Halfway through the meal, the two heard a noise coming from the gate of the courtyard.
"Please wait a moment, Fifth Master. I will go in and pass the message."
"This is the Ye Mansion. I am entering my own home. Why do I need to be informed?"
"The head of the family said that anyone entering must be informed. You can only enter if the two young masters are willing to see you."
"Then why don't you go and pass it on."
