"Humph!" There is no tiger in the mountain, and the monkey is called the King! "

"I think the side branch is just trying to take advantage of the Ye Family when they are still in the process of awakening to power!"

Huan Xiong laughed sinisterly, he had seen everything clearly. Once Ye Ling returned to the Ye Family, even if a direct descendant did not have a great authority, they would still find it difficult to contend against the side branch.

"What nonsense?"

Huan Xiong frowned as he looked at Feng Yu with a fierce glare, then looked at Ye Lan who was at the side. Seeing that Ye Lan's eyes were actually filled with killing intent, he revealed a pleased and cold smile, and thought to himself, "This woman is unknown, so staying by my side will sooner or later lead to disaster!"

Feng Yu's expression froze. After being glared at by Huan Xiong, he was at a loss of what to do, and then asked Ye Ling: "Boss, where should we go now?"

"Naturally, I'll go to the City Lord's Mansion." Ye Ling laughed. Since his identity had already been exposed, as a Young Sect Master of the Sky Dragon Sect, why would he be afraid?

Coincidentally, he wanted to see how the branch family would deal with his uncle Ye Qinghun. If possible, he naturally wanted to save his uncle Ye Qinghun.

"No!" Young Master, if you go like this, you will bring about a fatal disaster! "

Huan Xiong and Feng Yu had not even opened their mouths to speak, but Ye Lan's face was filled with anxiety and worry.

"A calamity? We have never been afraid of these things, Ye Ling is a Young Sect Master of the Sky Dragon Sect, how can there be people who want to harm him? "

Huan Xiong scoffed, and looked at Ye Lan with an unfriendly expression. This girl was in such a rush, as though her acting had gone overboard, they were not worried, but Ye Lan actually tried to dissuade her, which made him feel extremely displeased.

"Exactly! Boss is a Young Sect Master of the Sky Dragon Sect, even the City Lord has to personally receive him, what's wrong with going to the City Lord's Mansion? "

Feng Yu frowned, he looked at Ye Lan and was a little dissatisfied. They had come to the Southern Martial Continent openly this time, why would they be so secretive?

"Let's go!" Ye Ling laughed and did not speak, he did not care about Ye Lan at all, directly walking towards the group. He was not unfamiliar with Iron Soul City, he was familiar with the road.

Huan Xiong did not hesitate, and followed behind Ye Ling with large strides. Feng Yu looked at Ye Lan strangely, then turned and left in a hurry.

Ye Lan's expression was extremely ugly to behold. Ye Ling's disregard and indifference instead caused her to feel a bit suspicious. Huan Xiong's words were obviously meant to test her, and she thought to herself: "Could it be that they've long since seen through my identity?"

Thinking about that, Ye Lan could not help but tremble, her expression was strange, looking at the back of Ye Ling and the rest, she bit her lips, as though she hated to drink.

Iron Soul City, City Lord's Mansion.

In the southwest region of the main city, the City Lord's Mansion was extremely vast. The huge courtyard was filled with steel walls, and there were many experts from the Ye Clan guarding the entrance.

In the courtyard, there was a huge palace. This was the residence of the City Lord.

On the other hand, around the palace, there were experts standing guard, surrounding the area so that not even a drop of water could leak out.

Inside the palace, a middle-aged man with four severed limbs was lying on the ground. He had a hideous and pained expression on his face. The wounds on each of his arms and legs had a black light that prevented him from recovering.

"Humph!" Ye Qinghun, I advise you not to be so stubborn! "

"Currently in the 28 cities, 18 cities have already fallen into the hands of my branch, and even if you do not hand over the City Lord Token, we can still control this Iron Soul City!"

A black clothed man with a ruddy complexion stood in front of the severed limbs. He had a cold smile on his face as he loudly berated.

The Ye Qinghun he spoke of was precisely the bloody man who was sprawled on the ground. He was Ye Ling's uncle, Ye Qinghun, the city lord of the Iron Soul City.

The person standing in front of Ye Qinghun was Ye Tao's grandfather, and also the Ye Family's most unremarkable Clan Elder. If not for the fact that the other branch family members held authority and allowed him, who was only a normal person, to act so arrogantly, he would not have been able to raise his head in front of the rest of the world.

His name was "Ye Tianhong" and his cultivation was at the ninth level of the Dao-Martial Stage. He was a second rate expert in the Ye Family and if not for his branch family, he would not have acted so arrogantly.

"Ye Tianhong, don't you dare be so arrogant!"

"If you want the City Lord Token, even if you kill me, you can forget about getting it!"

"Without the City Lord Token, no one can even dream of controlling this Iron Soul City. Don't think that just because your branch family is rampant, they can be lawless. If my father were to come out, you would definitely be decapitated!"

Ye Qinghun, who was lying on the ground with a painful look on his face, angrily scolded Ye Tianhong when he heard that Ye Tianhong was acting so arrogantly in front of him.

Ye Qinghun was a Dao-Martial Stage Ranker, but because of Ye Tian Hong's sudden sneak attack, he was poisoned, and thus fell into the hands of a villain. He had his four limbs cut off, but was unable to circulate his mana and recover.

"Ha ha!"

"Stop dreaming!"

"Your father had already died in seclusion. Otherwise, why would he not appear for so long? The Great Clan Elder had tried to probe him personally, but he did not detect the clan leader's aura or response. It's extremely laughable that you are still sitting here admiring the sky! "

He heard what Ye Qinghun said, but he felt that it was laughable. If he did not get the accurate information, how could the other branches of the family be so brazen, directly swallowing up all the authority in the main branch?

"What?" Impossible! My father will not perish! "

Ye Qinghun was furious, he gritted his teeth and glared at Ye Tian Hong. Being humiliated by Ye Tian Hong in such a way, his heart was unable to calm down, his eyes were blazing with fire.

"Grandfather!"

Just when Ye Tianhong was laughing proudly, a call came from outside the hall.

Ye Tianhong frowned, he raised his head to look at the door, only to see his grandson, Ye Tao, rushing towards him with a serious face.

Ye Tian Hong frowned, his expression was somewhat unsettled. He looked at Ye Tao and asked, "Tao, Tao Er, why are you in such a hurry?" Could something have happened? "

"Grandfather, your grandson was outside the city gates today, and actually saw Ye Ling!"

Ye Tao frowned, he glanced at Ye Qinghun who was sprawled on the ground and then spoke to his grandfather, Ye Tian Hong.

"What?" Ye Ling? That Ye Ling who was rumored to be from Young Master Ye? "

Ye Tian Hong was shocked and quickly asked for confirmation from Ye Tao. He had heard about Ye Ling, but because the branch was quickly expanding, annexing the direct line of descent, he had not been able to get any information on Ye Ling.

"Yes!" At the start, I was also very curious, some people claimed that they were Young Sect Master of the Sky Dragon Sect, and had Nine Dragons Order in their hands. When my grandson heard that they were going to go and take a look, he did not expect that they were actually Ye Ling! "

Ye Tao nodded, as he gave a firm reply to Ye Tianhong. After which, he explained everything in detail, but his expression was extremely solemn.

The Sky Dragon Sect was a big supporter, if Ye Ling had the Sky Dragon Sect's protection, they would need to consider fighting with the Sky Dragon Sect if they wanted to deal with him.

"Where is this child now? Do you have any Sky Dragon Sect with you? "

Ye Ling appearing in Southern Martial Continent is something that we have to pay attention to. It concerns the life and death of our family.

"He is right at Iron Soul City, and beside Ye Ling, he actually saw Ye Lan. This woman secretly gave me a meaningful glance, which prevented me from daring to act rashly."

Ye Tao's expression was ugly as he looked at his grandfather Ye Tianhong, who was trying to probe his grandfather's opinion. Now that Ye Ling had fallen into his trap, if he were to let this opportunity go, then there would be no more chances.

"Ye Lan? Isn't she Ye Ling's former personal servant? " Ye Tian Hong was shocked, she naturally knew Ye Lan's name, this girl was one of the great warriors of their branch.

"Yes!" Ye Lan should be ignoring the Lingyun City, but suddenly appearing by Ye Ling's side, this is undoubtedly a warning to us! "

Ye Tao frowned, Ye Lan's appearance caused him to become suspicious, but the current situation was urgent, and he could not ask the Ye Chamber of Commerce for the reason.

"I know about it."

Towards Ye Ling's appearance, he had been shocked. Now that the matter with Ye Qinghun was not settled yet, he could not make up his mind right now.

"Ling'er is back?"

"Haha!" My direct line of descent is saved! "

Ye Qinghun, who was lying on the ground in an incomparably miserable state, actually felt excited and excited when he heard news of Ye Ling's return. Ye Ling was the hope of his direct descendant, and the key to determining whether he lived or died.

"Shut up!"

"If you dare to spout nonsense again, be careful that I may kill you with a single slash!"

Ye Tao frowned, upon hearing that Ye Qinghun actually dared to be arrogant in front of him, he was instantly enraged, and kicked Ye Qinghun out.

Plop!

Ye Qinghun fell to the ground, his face immediately turning as pale as paper. Even so, his smile still remained, and his eyes were bloodshot as he looked at Ye Tao and his grandson, "Your good days are over! If Ling'er returns to the Ye Family, the direct line of descent will definitely support him, and at that time, the secondary branch will never have peace, and will be on the verge of death! "

"Ye Qinghun!"

"Don't be happy too early, Ye Ling is like a turtle in a jar right now. As long as I make a move, he can forget about leaving the Iron Soul City alive!"

Ye Tian Hong's expression was extremely cold, his face revealed a sneer as he looked at the proud Ye Qinghun. It was laughable that Ye Qinghun did not expect that he, Ye Ling, would take the initiative to come knocking on his door to seek death.

"What!" Hearing what Ye Tian Hong said, Ye Qinghun's face turned ugly. Gritting his teeth, he glared at Ye Tian Hong and shouted, "You dare!"

"See if I dare!"

Ye Tianhong had a wide smile on his face, and a cold and ruthless look was etched on his face. At this moment, he had already made up his mind.

"Report!"

"Someone claims that the Young Sect Master of the Sky Dragon Sect is here to pay a visit!"

Just as Ye Tianhong finished his sentence, someone came rushing in from outside the hall with a hurried voice.
