Chapter 178: Meeting Alone

Ye Tian said this indifferently, but his heart was already in his throat.

After all, the opponent is a master in the Yuanying period. If he fights desperately, it will be difficult for Ye Tian to resist.

"Don't kill me, please don't kill me."

Feeling Ye Tian's murderous intent, Yuwen Wu's face changed drastically and he began to wail.

Although he is a playboy, he is not stupid. On the contrary, because of his innate advantages, he is smart and knows how to judge the situation.

"You killed my brother, and now you want to kill me? Dream on!"

Yuwen Bing gritted his teeth and cursed angrily. He wished he could cut Ye Tian into pieces.

Unfortunately, he was now completely restrained and it was extremely difficult for him to even move, so how could he fight Ye Tian?

"Noisy!"

Ye Tian raised his eyebrows. He would certainly not kill again. Moreover, today was his father's birthday. What was the point of doing this?

After saying this, he slapped the two men away with a palm and turned back to the banquet.

Originally, those who came to watch the excitement didn't know what to say.

If you say it was Ye Tian's fault, it was Yuwen Hua who provoked him first, but he ended up capsizing and dying in a ditch. Anyone would feel aggrieved.

To be honest, Ye Tian was right. Yuwen Hua did die at his hands, and was burned to death.

"Ye Tian, ​​stop right there!"

"Ye Tian, ​​you killed my brother. I'm going to kill you."

Yuwen Wu and Yuwen Bing struggled to get up, staring at Ye Tian with red eyes, wishing they could tear him into pieces.

"Get lost!" Ye Tian was too lazy to even lift his eyelids: "If you continue to pester me, you will die!"

"You!" Yuwen Wu and Yuwen Bing's faces turned pale, but they did not dare to act rashly. They knew that they were no match for Ye Tian, ​​so they could only grit their teeth and leave in shame.

…

At the Ye family banquet.

After Ye Qingxuan sensed the situation here, he couldn't help but look at Yuwen Batian beside him.

"Brother Yuwen, why do you look so ugly?"

Ye Qingxuan asked with concern: "Are you a little tired? Do you want to find a place to rest?"

Upon hearing this, Yuwen Batian's face turned so gloomy that water seemed to drip from it. He suppressed his inner anger, forced a smile, and replied.

"Brother Ye, you are too polite. I am just a little worried about the younger generation of my family. After all, young people are always impulsive."

"Oh? Really?"

Ye Qingxuan's eyes flickered, and he roughly understood what was going on in his mind, but on the surface he still maintained a amiable demeanor.

"Young people always have to go through some ups and downs in order to grow up.

But having said that, what happened today really impressed me. I didn’t expect that he has such strength.”

Upon hearing this, Yuwen Batian's mouth twitched and his hatred for Ye Tian grew even stronger.

He thought to himself: "Ye Tian, ​​you have brought shame to my Yuwen family today. I, Yuwen Batian, will not be a human being if I don't take revenge!"

However, due to the circumstances, he could only suppress his anger and responded calmly: "Yes, Ye Tian is indeed surprising.

However, the path of cultivation is long and difficult, and temporary gains and losses cannot determine the future. "

Ye Qingxuan nodded, seeming to agree: "Brother Yuwen is right, the way of cultivation is to persevere and have a strong character.

However, what happened today can be considered a test for Ye Tian. I hope he can learn a lesson from it and be more stable in the future."

The banquet continued, but the atmosphere had quietly changed.

The originally festive atmosphere was mixed with a subtle tension and undercurrent.

The guests either chatted in low voices or raised their glasses to celebrate, but in their hearts they were all secretly wondering how the situation would develop next.

At this time, Ye Tian had already returned to the banquet, and his appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.

He did not seem tired or excited because of the battle just now. Instead, he became more calm and reserved, as if nothing had happened.

He walked to Ye Qingxuan's side, bowed slightly and said, "Father, I'm back."

Ye Qingxuan looked at Ye Tian, ​​his eyes full of satisfaction. He patted Ye Tian's shoulder gently and said with a smile: "My good son, you did a good job today. But remember, on the road of cultivation, don't be arrogant, and always maintain a humble heart."

Ye Tian nodded and replied respectfully: "My child will remember my father's teachings."

When he returned to his seat, a figure suddenly walked towards him.

It was Xu Wan'er, who was looking at him apologetically.

"After the party, I want to meet you alone."

Xu Wan'er mustered up the courage to speak.

"Is it necessary for me to talk to you?" Ye Tian shook his head calmly: "We are not familiar with each other."

Although Ye Tian's words were light, they were like a sharp blade in the cold wind, inadvertently cutting through the slightest expectation in Xu Wan'er's heart.

Her expression changed slightly, but she quickly returned to her usual gentleness.

"Ye Tian, ​​I know there was a misunderstanding between us, but I apologize to you for what happened today."

Ye Tian's eyes narrowed when he heard this. He was not an unkind person, but there was always an insurmountable gap in his heart towards Xu Wan'er.

That was due to family grievances and unpleasant memories from the past.

However, Xu Wan'er's attitude today surprised him a bit, and made his heart ripple.

"Okay, let's meet in the back garden after the party."

Ye Tian finally nodded and decided to give Xu Wan'er a chance, and also give himself a chance to untie the knots in his heart.

When the last round of toasts ended, the banquet was declared over.

The guests stood up one after another, some said goodbye and left, while others agreed to continue the conversation.

At Ye Qingxuan's signal, Ye Tian left the banquet hall first and went to the back garden to wait for Xu Wan'er's arrival.

The moonlight was like water, sprinkling over every corner of the back garden, adding a touch of softness and mystery to this quiet night.

Ye Tian stood under an old locust tree, looking into the distance through the sparse branches and leaves.

Soon, the sound of light footsteps broke the silence of the night.

Xu Wan'er, wearing a light and elegant dress, walked slowly into the back garden. Her face was a little nervous, but more of it was sincerity and determination.

"Ye Tian, ​​thank you for being willing to see me." Xu Wan'er walked up to Ye Tian and said softly.

Ye Tian turned around, met Xu Wan'er's eyes, nodded slightly, and signaled Xu Wan'er to continue.

"I know you have hated me all these years, but——"

Xu Wan'er took a deep breath, calmed down, and looked directly at Ye Tian: "But I also have my own difficulties."

Hearing Xu Wan'er's narration, Ye Tian raised his eyebrows and then sighed.

He is not a cold-blooded animal, but he has experienced all kinds of ups and downs over the years and has long been accustomed to loneliness.

Ye Tian could see that Xu Wan'er really had her own difficulties, and she didn't seem to be lying.

But, so what?

In fact, Ye Tian never hated the other party, he just felt that what the other party did was a little cruel.

"Don't worry, I will take care of our previous issues. If there is nothing else, I will go back first."

Ye Tian said this calmly and prepared to leave.

"Ye Tian..."
