Chapter 541 - 0460: Ye Qingfeng’s Past
CHAPTER 541: CHAPTER 0460: YE QINGFENG’S PAST
"Only someone like Young Master Ye would achieve true kingly dominance!"
The extended Lincoln drove along the outskirts of Jiangbei City, and the driver drove smoothly and slowly, fearing to disturb Ye Qingfeng’s rest.
At that moment, Ye Qingfeng’s phone suddenly rang.
Without even opening his eyes, he answered the call directly.
"Xiao Feng!"
On the other end was the voice of Ye Gang, making Ye Qingfeng open his eyes and sit up straight.
"Uncle Gang?" he said with a smile, "Why are you calling me so late?"
Beside him, Lei Ye was taken aback, his eyes filled with shock.
He had followed Ye Qingfeng for more than two months, yet this was the first time he learned that Ye Qingfeng had an uncle, and judging by the tone, he was very respectful.
His shock was immense; what kind of family could have such an outstanding and heaven-defying member?
Despite his curiosity, he dared not interrupt, and he just listened quietly from the side.
"Xiao Feng," Ye Gang said on the other end, "A few days ago, the old man called me. He said... if I find you, I should ask you to return to the Ye Family once!"
"Return to the Ye Family?" Ye Qingfeng sneered coldly, "Didn’t that Second Grandpa say I’m not qualified to enter the family door? Now he wants me back?"
Ye Gang was silent for a few seconds before sighing, "Xiao Feng, don’t blame the old man too much. He holds a high position and shoulders the responsibility of revitalizing the family. The Ye Family is in a precarious situation; he just doesn’t want any trouble."
"His words may be extreme, but you have Ye Family’s blood running through you, and that’s an unchangeable fact."
Ye Qingfeng’s gaze slightly altered, after all, blood is thicker than water.
This old man was his grandfather’s biological brother.
In Yanjing, he managed the Ye Family of the Mortal World.
"Uncle Gang, I understand what you mean!" Ye Qingfeng said solemnly, "But some things I will never forget. What I said, I will achieve."
"No matter what the old man’s attitude is now, I won’t change my original intention. I need a result and an explanation."
Ye Qingfeng’s tone turned colder, "I don’t care much about how the Ye Family sees me, but I cannot endure them not acknowledging my mother as a daughter-in-law of the Ye Family!"
"I will make the old man hold my mother’s spiritual tablet and place it in the most conspicuous position in the Ye Family Ancestral Hall."
"Sigh!"
Hearing Ye Qingfeng’s determined tone, Ye Gang knew he couldn’t persuade him and sighed, saying no more.
Ye Qingfeng’s tone softened a bit as he said gently, "Uncle Gang, I will return to the Ye Family, but not now!"
Ye Gang pondered for a few seconds before replying, "I know I can’t persuade you, just hope that if one day you clash with the Ye Family, you can show some restraint; after all, they are family."
"Alright, I’ll listen to you!"
Ye Qingfeng chatted a bit more with Ye Gang before hanging up.
His gaze turned cold, and when he looked back, he found Lei Ye looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Do you want to hear my story?"
Ye Qingfeng looked at Lei Ye and asked casually.
Lei Ye was flattered. He certainly wanted to know about Ye Qingfeng, but didn’t dare to ask much. Now that Ye Qingfeng seemed willing to tell him, how could he not be happy?
He nodded quickly, waiting for Ye Qingfeng to continue.
"Just now I mentioned the Ye Family, you should have heard it!" Ye Qingfeng asked, "Do you know which Ye Family it is?"
Lei Ye was startled and asked nervously, "Could it be the Yanjing Ye Family?"
"Correct!" Ye Qingfeng nodded, "It’s that Ye Family!"
"What?"
Though Lei Ye had suspected, hearing Ye Qingfeng confirm it left him shocked.
The Yanjing Ye Family was a true behemoth, a top-tier aristocracy in Yanjing, and one of the most powerful families once. Even now, despite signs of decline, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse.
He never imagined that Ye Qingfeng not only had outstanding personal abilities, crushing the prodigies of Huaxia as a Patrol Envoy, but also had such a significant background.
"Young Master Ye, this news is truly shocking to me!"
Lei Ye said with a bitter smile.
Ye Qingfeng, respected as Mr. Ye across Jiangnan and Jiangbei, the Invincible War God Ye Jiujie, a member of the Yanjing Ye Family.
Currently ranked first on the Hidden Dragon List, Ye Qingfeng’s make it frighteningly abundant.
Any one of them would be enough for someone to walk proudly across Huaxia, yet Ye Qingfeng possesses them all. Among the younger generation, who in Huaxia could compete with him?
Not to mention the younger generation, even among the older generation, perhaps only the heads of a few major aristocratic families could be compared to him, and even they would be somewhat inferior.
"Do you think this identity is glamorous?" Ye Qingfeng sneered, "Before I was ruined, I thought so too!"
"Back then, relying on the power and influence of the Ye Family, I was indulging in Capital City, living recklessly, mingling in places of pleasure, all I knew was chasing frivolity, living a life of debauchery, you could say I was a playboy, a philanderer at that time!"
"Ridiculously, I was also complacent, thinking I could be carefree for a lifetime!"
Lei Ye dared not respond. He didn’t expect Ye Qingfeng to have such an unseemly past.
"But everything changed when I was suddenly taken to the Extraordinary Realm!"
Ye Qingfeng recalled his experiences of a past life, speaking with some self-mockery, "That year, my dad disappeared in the Extraordinary Realm, and my mom took me to escape into the Mortal World, to the Yanjing Ye Family, but in just a year, everything had changed."
"Back then, with my dad’s presence, the Ye Family treated us politely."
"But once my dad, the pillar of the Ye Family in the Extraordinary Realm, disappeared, the entire Ye Family stopped acknowledging us."
"Many elders bluntly said my mom was a jinx, a husband-killer."
"They scolded me as a complete waste, unable to compare with the elites of Yanjing’s young generation, not allowing us to enter the Ye Family’s doors, refusing to acknowledge me as a member of the Ye Family, or my mother as a daughter-in-law!"
"It was on that day, I first felt I was a worthless brat, even unable to protect my own mother!"
"Eventually, my mother was driven back to the Qin Family in Mingzhu City, it was not only because of the injuries she sustained in the Extraordinary Realm but also due to the Ye Family’s harshness, she soon passed away."
"And, I was taken back to the Extraordinary Realm by the Ye Family again, only to face the suppression of an opposing family, having my bloodline extracted."
"In my rage, I cut my finger, swearing an oath with my blood that one day, I would make the Ye Family’s old man repent in front of my mother’s spiritual tablet, make the entire Ye Family regret what they said back then!"
"I also want the Xue Family, Dongfang Family, and Gong Family of the Extraordinary Realm to pay the price in blood."
Ye Qingfeng spoke at length, leaving Lei Ye wide-eyed and speechless.
Though he couldn’t understand the Extraordinary Realm, it couldn’t prevent his astonishment.
He never imagined, someone as illustrious and dominant as the Invincible War God also had such a tortuous past, nor could he fathom how a playboy managed to reach his current heights in just three years; how extraordinary must his talent and intellect be?
Using the four words "amazingly talented" might not even suffice to describe him, right?
In Ye Qingfeng’s eyes burned a fierce intensity, with two crimson flames dancing madly.
"In this world, there are no rewards without effort. To stand taller than others, you must put in ten or a hundred times the effort, you need unwavering will and determination."
He turned to Lei Ye, speaking solemnly, "Do not confine your vision to only the Jiangnan or Jiangbei areas. Follow me, do your responsibilities, and one day, I will lead you to stand atop the world, overlooking the world."
"If the heavens attempt to block me, I will punch through the heavens, if the earth opposes me, I will stomp and split the earth!"
Lei Ye’s heart was filled with immense passion, surging vigorously. Though he had lived for half a lifetime, he couldn’t match Ye Qingfeng’s arrogance and dominance.
"Young Master Ye, rest assured, we will follow you without regret!"
Ye Qingfeng patted Lei Ye on the shoulder, got out of the car, and soon disappeared into the night. He didn’t expect that the first person to know his story would be Lei Ye.
The next morning, Ye Qingfeng was still lying on the sofa of a mansion in Jiangbei City when there was a knock on the door.
"Good morning!"
Opening the door, Bai Wan’er stood outside, wearing a light purple shirt and sky-blue jeans. Today she looked like the girl next door, wearing casual shoes, simple yet elegant, with a sweet and generous smile.
She was carrying a lunch box with two little hearts painted on it, very cute.
"Why are you in Jiangbei?" Ye Qingfeng asked, a bit surprised.
"It’s not just me. My parents are planning to stay in Jiangbei for a while. My mom is even excited to follow your subordinates to learn some business knowledge."
"I see."
Ye Qingfeng nodded.
Bai Wan’er seemed a bit shy and blushing, said, "Well... I came to see you because I have something to discuss!"
Ye Qingfeng turned and re-entered the room, lying back on the sofa.
Bai Wan’er sat on the sofa beside him, smiling, "You haven’t had breakfast yet, have you? I made some for you; why don’t you wash up and have some breakfast?"
This was her first time making breakfast for Ye Qingfeng.
"Alright!"
Ye Qingfeng couldn’t refuse Bai Wan’er’s kind gesture, so he quickly washed up and began to enjoy the breakfast provided.
Bai Wan’er rested her chin on her hands, watching Ye Qingfeng eat ravenously, her heart filled with sweetness. It was her first time seeing Ye Qingfeng eat.
"Is it good?"
She asked nervously.
"Not bad!"
Ye Qingfeng rarely praised her with a sentence.
Bai Wan’er was overjoyed, and suddenly asked, "Do you know Bei Yinyao?"
"Bei Yinyao?" Ye Qingfeng replied casually, "Heard of her, but not very familiar!"
"Haven’t you heard her songs?"
Bai Wan’er looked at Ye Qingfeng as if he were an alien, her tone filled with surprise.
"I’ve heard them, but I don’t think much of them!"
Ye Qingfeng answered bluntly.
Bai Wan’er was speechless, but recalling Ye Qingfeng’s stunning song at the New Year gala, which surpassed even top singers, she felt at ease.
She continued.
"Xiao Xue said that Bei Yinyao will be in Jiangbei today, and she will attend a ball tonight organized by the Nine Tribulations board of directors. As the behind-the-scenes boss, do you want to take a look?"
