The young men and women of the Ye Family all showed surprised expressions upon hearing this.
When did Ye Hao get a fiancée?
And not just any fiancée, but one from the Song Family, a thousand-year-old aristocratic family and one of the top powers in the Eastern Domain!
Ye Hao calmly said to Song Qingxue, "Let's go inside and talk."
Then, Ye Hao turned and walked into the Ye Manor first.
Song Qingxue followed him.
Upon entering the Ye Manor, Song Qingxue glanced around the surroundings and then spoke in a voice as beautiful as heavenly music, "You killed four Half-step Spirit Sea Realm cultivators from the Li Family. Now, the rumors are flying that you are a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator at seventeen years old, the most outstanding Heavenly Prodigy among the younger generation in the Eastern Domain."
Ye Hao's expression remained indifferent. He didn't answer the question but said calmly, "According to the agreement back then, when I turned seventeen, you would officially get engaged to me. However, your Song Family hasn't sent any news. As per the agreement, the Song Family should compensate me with one million Mid-grade Spirit Stones."
The two were currently standing in a garden within the Ye Family's estate.
Standing on a small bridge, they looked at the stream flowing beneath it, as well as some colorful small fish.
Song Qingxue seemed to have anticipated that Ye Hao would bring this up. She spoke with a calm expression, "It's not that our Song Family doesn't want to fulfill the agreement, but the Ye Family has too many enemies. If I were to officially get engaged to you, our Song Family would also face great difficulties in the Eastern Domain."
Ye Hao's expression was calm as he looked at the fish below the bridge, his gaze peaceful as he said, "Then compensate me with one million Mid-grade Spirit Stones."
Song Qingxue frowned slightly, her expression showing displeasure. "Do you want my Song Family to die along with your Ye Family? As long as the Ye Family can resolve this crisis, I will get engaged to you. If the Ye Family cannot resolve the crisis, my Song Family doesn't want to sacrifice the lives of our entire clan for nothing."
"Then compensate me with one million Mid-grade Spirit Stones." Ye Hao calmly looked at the fish below the bridge.
Song Qingxue's face grew a little colder. "I told you, it's not that I don't want to get engaged to you!"
"Compensate me with one million Mid-grade Spirit Stones." Ye Hao.
Song Qingxue frowned.
At this moment, Ye Hao showed a faint smile and looked at Song Qingxue's somewhat cold and pretty face. "If your Song Family refuses to compensate with one million Mid-grade Spirit Stones, then you can stay in the Ye Family forever."
"Do you dare to force me to stay?" Song Qingxue stared at Ye Hao with her beautiful eyes, an air of arrogance emanating from her. "My Song Family is one of the top powers in the Eastern Domain. My martial talent, Song Qingxue's, ranks in the top three among all generations of the Song Family. If your Ye Family tries to force me to stay, my Song Family will definitely not let it go!"
Ye Hao showed a faint smile, staring at Song Qingxue's pretty face, and said calmly, "Your Song Family owes me one million Mid-grade Spirit Stones. Since the Song Family is unwilling to repay the debt, you will be used to repay it. As for your Song Family not letting the Ye Family go, I think you've got it backward. It should be our Ye Family that won't let it go."
Song Qingxue's beautiful eyes gazed at Ye Hao. "Our Song Family's ancestor is a Sixth Realm existence!"
The Sixth Realm, a realm above Spirit Gathering.
Ye Hao's expression was calm, showing no sign of being intimidated. "Do you think only the Song Family has a Sixth Realm expert? Does our Ye Family not?"
"Is that so?" Song Qingxue seemed unconvinced, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ye Hao's eyes, as if trying to discern if he was bluffing.
"If the Ye Family truly has a Sixth Realm ancestor, why haven't they revealed it to the various powers in the Eastern Domain? If it were public, the Ye Family's crisis might be significantly reduced," Song Qingxue said calmly, observing Ye Hao's reaction.
Ye Hao chuckled, and then his fingers moved with lightning speed, tapping several important acupoints on Song Qingxue.
Song Qingxue was caught off guard. She never expected Ye Hao to suddenly make a move against her, sealing her Dantian Qi Sea and preventing her from mobilizing her spiritual energy.
"Talking about it a thousand or ten thousand times is not as good as proving it with action," Ye Hao said with a smile, looking at Song Qingxue.
"From now on, you are Ye Hao's woman. Because of the agreement back then, my mother gave your father three Earth-grade Cultivation Methods as a betrothal gift. This means you have long been Ye Hao's woman. Either compensate me with one million Mid-grade Spirit Stones, but your Song Family definitely cannot produce that much, so from now on, you yourself belong entirely to me, Ye Hao."
Ye Hao said this calmly.
"You dare!" Song Qingxue's expression turned cold, and she stared at Ye Hao coldly, warning him, "If you forcibly keep me here, my Song Family will definitely come to your door to demand an explanation!"
Ye Hao chuckled lightly, his smile carrying a hint of coldness.
They owed a debt but still wanted to come to his door to demand an explanation.
Was she trying to play dumb with him?
Slap!
Ye Hao raised his hand and slapped Song Qingxue's pretty face directly.
Song Qingxue was stunned.
She was completely dazed by the slap.
She was actually hit?
She, the contemporary Martial Dao Heavenly Prodigy of the illustrious thousand-year-old Song Family, had been detected to have extremely high martial talent since birth!
She was doted on by everyone in the family!
Let alone being hit, they wouldn't even bear to scold her!
Yet now, she had been slapped by Ye Hao!
Song Qingxue's face immediately turned cold, her eyes filled with rage. "Ye Hao, you will regret this!"
Slap!
Another slap landed on Song Qingxue's face.
"Ye Hao!"
Slap!
Song Qingxue's expression became extremely grim, and a venomous glint flashed in her eyes.
Slap!
Another slap.
Song Qingxue glared venomously at Ye Hao, "I didn't say anything, why did you hit me?!"
Slap!
"I don't like that venomous look you give me."
"You!"
Slap!
"Ah!!! Ye Hao, I'll fight you!"
Song Qingxue's composure broke, and she threw a punch at Ye Hao.
Although her spiritual power was sealed, her physique remained, and its strength was comparable to the Third Level of Qi Condensation!
But the physical strength of the Third Level of Qi Condensation was like a child's in Ye Hao's eyes.
Slap!
Ye Hao slapped her again.
This slap carried a bit more force, sending Song Qingxue tumbling to the ground.
Ye Hao then took two steps forward, placing his foot next to Song Qingxue's face. He then applied slight pressure, grinding his foot back and forth, causing Song Qingxue's face to contort.
"Mmmph..."
Song Qingxue let out a muffled sound. She struggled with all her might, but it was useless.
Ye Hao continued to grind his foot back and forth on Song Qingxue's delicate face.
Song Qingxue still struggled, and the more she struggled, the deeper the hatred in her eyes became.
But after struggling for a while, Song Qingxue began to cry, crying in despair.
"Wuwuwu... wuwu... wuwu... wu..."
Song Qingxue sobbed.
Ye Hao felt no pity. He wasn't the soft-hearted type. His hundred years of experience soul-transmigrating in an otherworldly realm had taught him deeply that soft-heartedness was a disease; being merciful to enemies was cruelty to oneself.
Song Qingxue's true purpose for coming to the Ye Family was to test their strength.
Once it was confirmed that the Ye Family had no one in the Sixth Realm, the Song Family would likely be the first to crush the Ye Family!
Song Qingxue's crying struck him as utterly laughable.
She owed a debt and refused to repay it, yet she threatened him!
She was clearly an enemy force!
Furthermore, she was an ungrateful scumbag who didn't keep her promises!
"Wuwuwu... wuwu... Ye Hao, stop stepping on my face, wuwuwu..." Song Qingxue pleaded through her tears.
