Chapter 653: What Happened Back Then



Facing Ye Wuhen's praise, Mingyue smiled slightly and said modestly: "Senior, you are too kind. Those are all rumors from outsiders. Mingyue doesn't dare to be arrogant..."

"Haha, that's good. You are neither arrogant nor impatient, but generous and dignified. You will definitely be able to achieve success in the future..."

Ye Wuhen smiled with satisfaction, then glanced at Ye Qiu, walked towards the platform without saying a word.

"Ye Wuhen, an ancient clan of the Ye family, pays homage to Elder Meng."

After saying that, Ye Wuhen bowed to him. This was the greatest courtesy he gave to Meng Tianzheng. It can be seen what position Meng Tianzheng occupied in his heart.

In this world, only Meng Tianzheng can make him bow his head like this.

Looking at Ye Wuhen's head of white hair, Meng Tianzheng shook his head. He knew very well what kind of pain Ye Wuhen had experienced back then.

If it weren't for his strong heart, if it were anyone else, he would have gradually lost himself in that kind of pain and torture, worried about gains and losses, and turned into a complete lunatic.

"Alas... Wuhen, I haven't seen you for many years. You are no longer the same as you were before."

With a sigh, Meng Tianzheng still felt a little regretful. The boy who was so high-spirited and fearless back then is now gray-haired and looks much more haggard.

Meng Tianzheng witnessed everything that happened back then, but unfortunately, he couldn't intervene.

Because it was a family riot within the Ye family and had nothing to do with outsiders.

All he could do was to pull Ye Wuhen out of the abyss when he was most desperate, which could be regarded as living up to his old friend's trust.

Facing Meng Tiantian's words, Ye Wuhen also shook his head, smiled bitterly, and said: "People always have to learn to grow up. Back then... I was too young, arrogant, and looked down on others.

If I had realized it earlier, this situation wouldn’t have happened.”

"Uncle Meng, Wuhen has to thank you for pulling me back from the abyss and giving me hope to live again."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Ye Qiu and Mingyue were whispering in the back.

“Is there any story behind this?”

Ye Qiu was puzzled. Looking at the white hair on Ye Wuhen's head, he thought he dyed his hair white on purpose to look cool.

After all, looking at it this way, he looks very handsome and seems to be able to fight.

Mingyue glanced at him and explained, "Don't you know?"

"I don't know, what's the story behind this?"

Ye Qiu really didn’t know. Of course, Mingyue didn’t know much either. She only knew a little bit and didn’t know the details.

Because at that time, she was still very young and had only heard about it from others.

"It is said that several decades ago, the Ye clan had a family conflict because the previous clan leader suddenly passed away and no new clan leader was appointed."

"After the previous clan leader passed away, the major branches of the Ye clan fought for power in order to lead the entire Ye clan, and an internal family fight broke out."

"Among them, there are also major forces and families in the nine heavens and ten earths. They secretly intervened and assisted the lineage that supported each other to take charge of the Ye clan."

"During that internal struggle, the head of the Ye clan experienced the tragic death of his wife, the death of his eldest son in a sea of ​​fire, the betrayal of his brothers, and the various blows of fighting. His hair turned white overnight."

"During that turmoil, only the youngest son, who was still in his infancy, luckily survived and was brought back to the Butian Pavilion by the Great Elder."

"Besides that, no one survived. All his blood relatives have already fallen in the sea of ​​fire."

"From that moment on, the head of the Ye clan was possessed by the devil and turned into a complete killing god. He personally killed those who betrayed him, suppressed the riot of the Ye clan, and successfully ascended to the throne."

Listening to Mingyue's explanation, Ye Qiu's heart trembled, and he had an indescribable feeling.

Very shocking.

He had never expected that Ye Wuhen's experience would be so heavy.

If it were an ordinary person, he probably wouldn't be able to withstand such a blow, right?

I couldn't help but admire him in my heart. At least, he had never experienced this kind of torture and couldn't feel that kind of despair.

But if you think about it, you can feel that if a person really reaches the point of desperation, the potential that is unleashed is extremely crazy.

Even if they see a glimmer of hope, they will grab it tightly like a life-saving straw.

"I see. No wonder I felt such a suffocating sense of oppression when I first met him. This evil aura is very heavy."

"It can be seen that this Senior Ye is a ruthless person."

Ye Qiu couldn't help but comment, feeling a little more awed.

Ye Qiu has always respected the strong, and Ye Wuhen's experience alone is enough to gain Ye Qiu's respect.

By this calculation, Ye Qingxuan should be considered his last tenderness and his only concern, right?

Only in front of Ye Qingxuan would he show his amiable side.

"Well... people like this are often the most terrifying."

Mingyue looked up at Ye Qiu, staring at him quietly, and suddenly felt that the Ye Qiu in front of her was especially like Ye Wuhen in front of her.

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that the two people had an inexplicable similarity, and the temperament they exuded was so similar.

Perhaps Mingyue had seen it wrong, so she did not continue to dwell on this question. She slowed down and said, "This Ye clan leader was once a world-renowned figure. When he was young, his demeanor was not much weaker than yours."

Ye Qiu agreed with this point. Every era has its outstanding figures. They all exude the charm of that era and create the stories of that era.

Don't compare who is stronger or weaker, just talk about style.

Listening to Ye Wuhen's heartfelt words, Meng Tianzheng couldn't help but sigh, feeling very distressed.

"Alas, poor child..."

In the past, the previous patriarch of the Ye clan, Ye Wuhen’s biological father, was a good friend of Meng Tianzheng.

It can be said that Ye Wuhen grew up under his care. Now seeing his current appearance, he feels very guilty.

Meng Tianzheng felt extremely guilty, feeling that he had failed to live up to his old friend's trust.

But he understood that when the situation was like that, he couldn't take action, because once he did, it would only involve more people.

His identity is too special. Once involved, more observers will emerge. By then, the entire nine heavens and ten earths will erupt in an unprecedented and desperate turmoil.

Meng Tianzheng has his own considerations. What Mingyue said is just a rumor circulating in the outside world.

In fact, he was very clear that the turmoil at that time was not just a riot of the Ye clan itself. There were too many things involved, so many that even Meng Tianzheng could not guarantee that he could completely suppress it.

Fortunately, Ye Wuhen did not let him down. He successfully walked out of the abyss of despair, took control of the Ye clan again, and suppressed the turmoil.

Seeing Meng Tianzheng so depressed, Tianyuan Taoist on the side had a vague guess and was thinking about something in his heart.

He also knew about the turmoil that happened back then. He then looked at Ye Wuhen and said, "You are the newly appointed patriarch of the Ye clan, the eldest son of Fellow Daoist Ye Tianshi, right?"

Hearing this, Ye Wuhen looked and found that the person who spoke was actually the grand elder of Tiansheng Mountain, Taoist Tianyuan.

He quickly said, "Replying to the old senior, it is this kid."

He was also shocked. He was so busy talking to Meng Tianzheng that he didn't notice that this old master was also here.
