The carriage drove on the winding mountain road, and the wheels made a fine grinding sound as they rolled over the gravel.
Ma Hongjun was lying by the window, staring intently at the rapidly receding scenery outside the window, his red hair messed up by the wind.
"Boss, where is Ye Family?"
He turned his head, his eyes shining with excitement.
"Ye Family, what kind of existence is it?"
"..."
There were countless questions that Ma Hongjun couldn't help but ask.
Ye Ruilin closed his eyes and rested his mind, and just smiled lightly when he heard the words.
Old Wu was sitting on the shaft of the car. He couldn't help but turn his head when he heard the words, with unconcealable pride in his tone.
"Our Ye Family is one of the three major Hidden Familys, with a history of thousands of years and a profound foundation."
"Three big Hidden Family?"
Ma Hongjun suddenly sat up straight, as if he smelled some terrible secret.
"Besides Ye Family, which other two are there?"
Old Wu stroked his beard and smiled.
"The other two are, one is Black Tortoise Xu Family. It is said that their Martial Soul is related to the ancient mythical beast Black Tortoise, and Black Tortoise Turtle's defense power is the best in the world."
"The other one..."
He paused, a trace of fear flashing in his eyes.
"It's Body Sect."
"Body Sect?"
Ma Hongjun blinked.
"The name sounds weird. What is their Martial Soul?"
"Not 'something', but 'a part of themselves'."
Ye Ruilin suddenly spoke, a dark light flashed in his opened eyes.
"The Soul Master of the Body Sect, and the awakened Martial Soul are a certain part of their body - eyes, arms, bones, and even... the heart."
Ma Hongjun took a breath of air.
"Then their Soul Skill isn't..."
"Something strange."
Old Wu took over, his voice a little deeper.
"It is said that the master of the Body Sect, Martial Soul, has bones all over his body. His ability is to control bones, freely generate or harden bone blades, bone spurs, and bone whips for offense and defense, and can even turn the battlefield into a bone forest."
Ma Hongjun swallowed and subconsciously touched his arm.
"Then, then Ye Family compares with them, who is more powerful?"
"Everyone has his own merits."
Ye Ruilin chuckled lightly.
"The three major Hidden Family check and balance each other and do not interfere with each other."
Ma Hongjun was stunned, and it took him a long while to say something.
"Boss, you have to protect me from now on!"
Ye Ruilin smiled and said nothing, looking out the window.
In the distant mountains, birds can be faintly seen passing by.
Ma Hongjun thought of something, suddenly looked at Ye Ruilin, and asked.
"Boss, your Second Martial Soul should be considered the main body, right?"
Ma Hongjun I remember the boss told me about his Second Martial Soul, body!
Ye Ruilin nodded.
"Then boss, can't you also join Body Sect?"
Ma Hongjun asked with some excitement.
Old Wu snorted coldly.
"Why does Young Master need to join Body Sect? Ye Family has a strong foundation and is not inferior to the Body Sect!"
Hearing the dissatisfaction in Old Wu's tone, Ma Hongjun chuckled twice and stopped being curious.
Ye Ruilin thought for a moment.
Body Sect, if you can win it, it will be a good help.
Ye Family.
The setting sun dyed the glazed tiles of the Ye Family mansion golden red, and a messenger bluebird fluttered and landed on the window lattice of the main hall.
Madam Ye was pruning a pot of bluegrass. When he saw the mailbox on the blue bird's feet, the silver scissors in his hand immediately fell to the ground.
"Madam beware!"
The maid hurriedly went to pick it up, but saw that her wife had quickly opened the letter, and tears instantly filled the corners of her eyes.
"Zhentian! Zhentian!"
Madam Ye ran out holding the hem of her skirt, her golden steps jingling in her hair.
"That brat is finally willing to come back."
Ye Zhentian, who was reviewing files in the study, was startled when the door burst open.
He looked up and saw his wife slapping the letter in front of him, her fingertips straining.
"Old Wu sent a message back. That brat has already set off. I'm afraid he'll be home tomorrow."
Ye Family The head of the family held his wife's shoulders helplessly and glanced at the letter.
A few words on the paper said Young Master had set off and would arrive home at noon tomorrow at the latest.
"This brat..."
Ye Zhentian caressed the wrinkles on the edge of the letter paper, and suddenly his wife pinched his arm.
"When your child comes back this time, you can no longer use family rules to restrain him!"
Madam Ye's eye circles are red, it's been three years, and this brat hasn't come back even once.
I'm afraid I might be a little dissatisfied with my family.
"Now, you should also be able to see that his own path is no less than that of your Ye Family ancestors."
"When my son comes back this time, if anyone makes him unhappy, I will also make that person unhappy."
After coming back to his senses, Madam Ye's eyes flashed with determination, and he also glared at Ye Zhentian.
"Okay, okay."
Ye Zhentian follows his wife's back skillfully.
"Don't worry, I won't bring up the old things again this time..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by his wife.
Madam Ye suddenly lowered his voice.
"I heard, over there Second Branch, I heard that Ye Zhenting brought back the block Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone from Sunset Forest the day before yesterday..."
Ye Zhentian's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he patted the back of his wife's hand.
"It's a joy to have the child back."
"Why bother paying attention to irrelevant things? Why not hurry up and prepare the food that brat likes."
Madam Ye was instantly distracted and rushed out again like a gust of wind.
In the room, Ye Zhentian's face turned gloomy and he looked in the direction of Second Branch, looking cold.
Elder Hall.
Second Elder Ye Hongxue Holding his beard and listening to the disciple's report, he slapped the chess pieces on the sapphire chessboard.
"Ruilin is nine years old now. Zhentian was already level 23 at this age back then. I don't know how strong his son is."
"I heard that boy has been practicing at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect during this period."
Third Elder Ye Mingyuan stroked the teacup meaningfully.
"The strength shouldn't be much worse."
Suddenly, the sound of breaking porcelain was heard outside the window, and the maid's panicked begging for mercy was mixed with the boy's sneer.
"Trash is trash, get out of here."
Ye Hongxue frowned and pushed open the window, only to see a young man in blue standing in the corridor, with a broken tea cup lying at his feet.
The young man did not panic when he saw the elder, but instead cupped his fists and saluted.
"I have disturbed the two elders. Rui Xuan just heard from some people and felt that they were not worthy of their virtues, and he was angry for a moment."
"He is a child of the Zhenting family."
Ye Mingyuan looked meaningfully at the Soul Power fluctuations floating around the boy.
"I heard that you broke through to level 25 last month?"
Ye Ruixuan A trace of pride flashed in his eyes.
"Back to Third Elder, I am indeed at level 25 now."
His expression was full of pride.
The two elders looked at each other, satisfaction flashing in their eyes.
Upon noticing this, Ye Ruixuan's eyes were filled with contentment.
He just wanted to let the elders know who should give this Ye Family to in the future!
Martial arts training ground.
Ye Zhenting stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the only son who beat Black Iron Stake into a dent in the middle of the field, and nodded with satisfaction.
Hearing the footsteps behind him, he looked back and saw Fourth Elder Ye Wenchang walking over, with a bluish bone sliding out of his sleeve.
"I heard that Ye Ruilin is coming back soon."
"This piece of Twenty Thousand Year Wind Demon Left Leg Bone, why not let Ruixuan try it?"
The young man practicing boxing in the field suddenly stopped, Soul Power causing his clothes to rustle in excitement.
Ye Zhenting had a look of helplessness on his face when he turned around.
"Fourth Elder, then Ye Ruilin, I'm afraid it's already useless."
"Without family resources, even in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, what's the use? I don't believe that Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can provide him with all the training resources!"
"Why are you so nervous?"
"Don't be afraid of the worst, just be afraid of ten thousand. Besides, this piece of Soul Bone is just for Ruixuan."
Ye Wenchang directly stuffed Soul Bone into Ye Ruixuan's hands.
"Only when Ye Ruilin is trampled under their feet will those people set their sights on Ruixuan."
Holding Soul Bone, feeling the power of Soul Bone, Ye Ruixuan's eyes flashed with excitement.
"Father!"
Ye Ruixuan suddenly knelt down on one knee, with wildfire in his eyes.
"When Ye Ruilin comes back, I will definitely defeat him in a clan competition!"
Ye Zhenting helped his son up and felt the surging energy in his meridians. His eyes looking toward the main courtyard became more sinister.
"Good boy."
He patted Ye Ruixuan on the shoulder and laughed.
"Let your uncle see what the real Ye Family Qilin is."
