My Ye Family Values Right and Wrong, and Also Strength!

The laws established by the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty also had their purpose.

For example, no academy within the Imperial Dynasty's borders could be interfered with by any other force, nor could any force actively attack students enrolled in the academies.

On the surface, it seemed the ruler cherished the young men and women in the academies, but in reality, he simply wanted the students to know that the royal family protected them. The fundamental reason for this was to attract students with good Martial Dao aptitude into the Imperial City Academy, thereby fostering a sense of belonging to the royal family among the students and making them willing to fight for it!

Everything was filled with schemes.

After Ye Hao finished reading this book, he didn't have many strong emotions. He had lived for over a hundred years, and some things were already clear to him.

He just wanted to stay peacefully in the Ye Family, do what he wanted to do, and achieve a Clear Mind.

As for the outside world's disturbances, if anyone dared to provoke him, he would simply strike back! His main principle was to avoid any internal struggle!

Just then.

A knock sounded on the door, followed by Lin Shige's voice from outside, "Young Master, the Li Family has brought people to demand an explanation."

Ye Hao found it laughable.

The Li Family coming to demand an explanation?

How could they have the audacity?

He had done nothing wrong, either in reason or in emotion. He had been bullied by Li Lengxuan for a full five years, from the time he entered the academy at twelve until he was seventeen. He had merely fought back, merely pinned Li Lengxuan to the ground and thrashed him, and then humiliated Li Shaoyou. All of this was Li Lengxuan and Li Shaoyou's own doing.

And now the Li Family was coming to demand an explanation? Did they have a leg to stand on?

Ye Hao pushed the door open and walked out into the courtyard. He saw Ye Paopao and a group of other Ye Family youths gathered there.

Ye Paopao's face was filled with anger. "Brother Ye Hao, the Li Family is here to demand an explanation. I truly can't understand how they can be so shameless! Clearly, the Li Family was in the wrong first, yet now they act as if they've suffered a great humiliation!"

"The Li Family is truly shameless!" a Ye Family girl exclaimed angrily.

Ye Hao said calmly, "Where are they?"

Ye Paopao immediately replied, "In the clan's assembly hall."

Inside the clan's assembly hall, the atmosphere was tense, as if a fight could break out at any moment!

Three people from the Li Family had arrived!

They were three elders of the Li Family! All of them were Qi Cultivation experts.

"My Li Family has only one demand! I want Ye Hao to kneel before Li Lengxuan and Li Shaoyou and kowtow in apology! Furthermore, you must compensate our Li Family with ten thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones for his bone fracture!"

Ninth Elder Li, a middle-aged man, said coldly to the Ye Family Patriarch, Ye Qingyun, with an air of arrogance.

Ninth Elder Li stared coldly at Ye Qingyun, without any attempt to hide his threat. "If the Ye Family cannot meet the demands of my Li Family, then do not blame my Li Family for declaring all-out war on the Ye Family!"

The Ye Family Patriarch, Ye Qingyun, also a middle-aged man wearing a green robe, sat in the main seat. He calmly held his teacup, gently swirling it, then calmly spoke, "Are you finished?"

"We are finished!" the three Li Family elders stared coldly at Ye Qingyun.

Patriarch Ye Qingyun then slowly took a sip of his tea, and then looked indifferently at the three Li Family elders, calmly stating, "If you are finished, then scram."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the three Li Family elders turned sharp, their eyes like lightning, fixed on Ye Qingyun. "Ye Qingyun, you, the patriarch of a third-rate family, dare to speak to us like this. It seems you, Ye Qingyun, are unaware of my Li Family's strength!"

Ye Qingyun's expression remained calm. He looked at the three Li Family elders as if they were three idiots.

"Is your Li Family so unreasonable?"

It wasn't Ye Qingyun who spoke, but Ye Paopao, who had just arrived.

Ye Paopao entered the assembly hall and glared at the three Li Family elders. "Clearly, Li Lengxuan was the one who bullied Brother Ye Hao first, and he bullied him for a full five years! So what if he was beaten and humiliated by Brother Ye Hao now? Even if someone is at fault, it's your Li Family who is at fault! What right do you have to come here demanding an explanation?"

Ye Paopao and the other Ye Family youths were furious, all glaring at the three Li Family elders.

Ninth Elder Li glanced coldly at Ye Paopao. "Who is this child? Scram! Also, my Li Family doesn't operate on right or wrong, we only operate on strength! If your Ye Family doesn't compensate ten thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones and make Ye Hao kowtow in apology today, my Li Family will not let this matter rest with the Ye Family!"

The Ye Family youths were extremely angry, feeling that the Li Family was too arrogant!

Patriarch Ye Qingyun slowly shook his head, then slowly raised his hand. A golden force instantly condensed in his palm, and he unleashed a powerful punch!

The golden force instantly transformed into a size of three people and, with lightning speed, slammed into the three Li Family elders.

"You dare! You dare!"

The three Li Family elders were shocked and enraged. They hadn't expected Ye Qingyun to attack directly. They quickly defended themselves, a light screen appearing on their arms.

With a bang, the three Li Family elders were violently sent flying back more than ten meters, spitting out blood.

After the three Li Family elders fell heavily to the ground, their faces were extremely grim.

"Ye Qingyun, you actually dare..."

Bang!

Before the Li Family elder could finish speaking, Ye Qingyun's figure moved like a phantom, leaving afterimages as he instantly appeared before Ninth Elder Li and kicked him hard in the abdomen.

"Ah! Ye Qingyun, I'm not done with you!"

Bang!

"Ye! Qing! Yun!"

Bang!

Ninth Elder Li fell silent.

Ye Qingyun looked down at the three elders of the Li Family with a calm expression, speaking leisurely, "My Ye Family values right and wrong, and also strength. The juniors' matters should be settled by the juniors themselves. But if you elders make a move, then everyone in my Ye Family will make a move!"

The three elders of the Li Family looked displeased, then left dejectedly.

"Patriarch is so cool."

Ye Paopao's mood improved. At fourteen, his face was still somewhat tender, and he offered Ye Qingyun sincere praise.

Ye Qingyun revealed a gentle smile. He looked at Ye Hao and said lightly, "With the family as your backing, be bolder when you act outside. The Ye Family is not as weak as you imagine."

Ye Hao nodded lightly, saying nothing. He had thought he would have something to do here, but it turned out to be a wasted trip.

Ye Hao stayed for a while, then returned home.

Back home, he meditated and cultivated.

His realm had already been slightly loose before, and now, absorbing a large amount of spiritual energy, he smoothly broke through to the second level of the Qi Realm.

In East Moon City.

The early stage of the Qi Realm was already considered a pillar of strength. The patriarchs of third-rate families were normally in the middle stage of the Qi Realm, while the patriarchs of second-rate families were usually in the late stage of the Qi Realm. The patriarchs of first-rate families were at the Half-step Spirit Sea Realm.

With his cultivation at the second level of Qi Cultivation, he was invincible within the Qi Realm. Even against someone at the Half-step Spirit Sea Realm, he could still crush them!

In other words, in East Moon City, he no longer had any major concerns. He could walk sideways, do as he pleased, and act with complete freedom!
