Chapter 2370 - 2371: Monarch, Your Opponent Is Me
The King immediately detected the sarcasm in Ye Xunhuan’s words, but he didn’t pay it any heed, responding faintly, "Timing is everything, isn’t it?"
"Ye Xunhuan, I told you before to have a peaceful Spring Festival. Now that it’s over, it’s time to settle accounts!" the King said nonchalantly, "Today is a good day for it!"
Ye Xunhuan snorted disdainfully, "King, stop with the schemes, be honest for once, I know exactly who you are!"
The King ignored Ye Xunhuan’s hidden meanings, staring at him as he continued, "Ye Xunhuan, you’ve just fought a battle, surely your physical strength and Inner Strength are depleted. I’ll give you fifteen minutes to recover!"
With that, the King’s tone suddenly changed, becoming incredibly fierce, "In fifteen minutes, I want your life!"
"King, drop the pretense, if you want to fight, I’ll accompany you to the end!" Ye Xunhuan replied coldly, "Enough with the insincerity!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xunhuan raised his sword, pointing it directly at the King, "Come on!"
At this moment, Ye Xunhuan declared war against the King without hesitation, intent on confronting him, to determine victory or defeat, life or death!
Faced with Ye Xunhuan’s provocation, the King’s eyes slowly narrowed, and a chilling gleam shot from within them.
Standing to the side, the Dragon Head’s face darkened upon seeing Ye Xunhuan declare war against the King, and quickly said, "King, this is a matter of the Ye family, you..."
"Ye Huang, you came to the Ye family making trouble, I haven’t even settled accounts with you, and now you claim he’s a member of the Ye family, did you ask for my approval?" Ye Fusheng suddenly spoke up.
"Uncle..."
"In the Ye family, we have no traitors who betray their masters!" Ye Fusheng said harshly, "He is not one of us, this isn’t a Ye family affair!"
With these words, Ye Fusheng completely distanced himself from Ye Xunhuan.
However, Ye Xunhuan didn’t mind, as he never considered himself part of the Ye family anyway.
The Dragon Head’s face immediately filled with deep bitterness, as if history was repeating, and time was reversing.
This scene was so similar, so reminiscent of twenty years ago!
It was like a Samsara, like a cycle of Ye Xunhuan and his father, the Evil Lord, Ye Xunhuan was walking the exact same path as his father!
"Uncle, after all these years, I thought you might have realized your mistakes, understood you shouldn’t have abandoned my brother, that you should have fought with them, but now I see you never realized, you always think you’re right!"
"You all think you’re doing it for the good of the Ye family, for everyone’s good, but in truth, you’re thinking only of yourselves, you’re afraid!"
"Afraid you’ll be killed, that’s how it was then, and still is now." the Dragon Head said heavily, "What’s the point of such a selfish and cold Ye family!"
With that, a deep sense of disappointment appeared on the Dragon Head’s face.
He was truly disappointed in the Ye family, disappointed in Ye Fusheng.
A family that only considers its own gains and losses, cold and heartless, with no warmth or sentiment at all.
Of course, the Dragon Head knew not everyone was heartless, but those with sentiments didn’t lead, those without did.
This situation could not be changed.
"What, are you going to renounce the Ye family?"
"From now on, I, Ye Huang, have nothing to do with the Ye family, my life and death are my own." the Dragon Head said firmly, "Back then you didn’t protect my brother, I had no power to protect him myself, I admit I was afraid of death!"
"But now, I will protect my only nephew, if you want to kill him, you’ll have to get past my body first!"
With these words, the Dragon Head exuded a strong fighting intent and killing intent!
At this moment, the Dragon Head was completely disillusioned with the Ye family, discarding all the honor and sense of belonging it once gave him!
Now the Dragon Head stood firmly with Ye Xunhuan, fighting for him.
"Well, well, you talk about stepping over your corpse, two brothers like you appeared from the Ye family, it’s a miracle!" Ye Fusheng said full of anger.
"Uncle, if the ancestors in heaven have spirits, seeing you about to let history repeat itself again, they would surely hold you accountable, they wouldn’t acknowledge such heartless descendants!"
"You..."
"Every ancestor of the Ye family was a person of feeling and righteousness, the Ye family’s growth and prosperity hinged entirely on their virtues and noble spirit!"
"But now, you’ve completely abandoned these sentiments and righteousness, discarded and stomped upon them, what’s the use of such a Ye family, how long can it flourish?" the Dragon Head said passionately, "One day, if the Ye family is overthrown, you’ll be sinners, kneeling before the ancestors to repent your sins!"
Ye Fusheng trembled all over with anger from the Dragon Head’s words.
"You... you..."
"Old man, I think my uncle is right, the Ye family will inevitably fall in your hands." Ye Xunhuan suddenly said, surprisingly calling the Dragon Head uncle.
When the Dragon Head said those words, Ye Xunhuan could clearly feel they were heartfelt, spoken with genuine emotion.
"But I will build a new Ye family, one of feeling and righteousness!"
"Unfilial spawn!" Ye Fusheng gritted his teeth, his facial muscles slightly twitching, "Today I’ll send both of you to hell, let’s see who repents there."
Saying that, Ye Fusheng was about to make a move.
But this time, his target wasn’t Ye Xunhuan, but the Dragon Head.
Not that Ye Fusheng didn’t want to strike at Ye Xunhuan, he did, but he knew he was injured, he couldn’t defeat Ye Xunhuan, fighting him would only disgrace himself, so he aimed to deal with the Dragon Head first.
After all, the Dragon Head’s strength was evident, even if he was injured, he wouldn’t let the Dragon Head stir any trouble.
As soon as Ye Fusheng moved, Ye Xunhuan immediately realized he was attacking the Dragon Head, and coldly snorted, "Old man, did you ask my permission to kill him?"
With that, Ye Xunhuan was about to rush towards the Dragon Head to protect him, but just as he was about to move, the King suddenly appeared before Ye Xunhuan, "Your opponent is me now!"
"King, your opponent is not him, but me!"
A clear voice suddenly echoed in the air, as crisp as a bell, it was pleasant but carried with it a chilling aura!
