Chapter 70: Rebel? (Urgently seeking recommendations!!)

  This chapter is updated in advance.

  It was not the Duke of Donglin who spoke, but a young man in his mid-twenties, wearing a yellow long gown, with an air of elegance and refinement, holding a folding fan in his hand, walking slowly towards him.

  Everyone's eyes fell on him, and he was slightly stunned.

  "He is the Crown Prince of Donglin Kingdom!"

  "It turned out to be Young Master Wang!" The crowd whispered among themselves.

  Qin Jiao Tou has also arrived.

  Qin Jiao Tou is the third greatest master under the Duke of the County, and it's said that he has already reached the peak of 9th rank.

  The gap between mid-9th stage and peak 9th stage seems to be just a hair's breadth, but the difference in strength is like heaven and earth. Generally, even top experts may not be able to make any progress for decades or even a lifetime after reaching mid-9th stage. After reaching the 9th stage, it becomes increasingly difficult to advance, as if climbing to the sky. In the entire Donglin County, there are only about seven or eight strong practitioners who have reached the peak of the 9th stage.

  As the crowd buzzed with discussion, Liu Zhen wore a calm expression, his gaze sweeping over the crowd with an air of nonchalance, as if this were his own home. Previously, he had been staying in nearby Liu Ye Town when he received a message from his father, and he had rushed here without stopping to rest.

  Ye Cangxuan looked at these people, his old eyes slightly narrowed, the prince's son Liu Zhen didn't even leave a visiting card before rushing in, he must be up to no good!

  If another family had a genius, the Duke of Donglin would also visit with a humble attitude. However, the Duke of Donglin had helped Yun's castle deal with Ye's castle several times, and even when Ye Zhantian knelt down to ask for medicine, he was driven out of the duke's mansion. This contradiction is irreconcilable, and even if the Duke of Donglin wants to make amends, the people of Ye's castle will probably still hold a grudge in their hearts.

  The Junwangfu is the largest force in Donglin County, with three ninth-level peaks, six mid-term and nine initial stages. Such strength is a great deterrent to any family in Donglin County, and it is said that the county king also has people in the imperial court, which is not something that Yejia Fortress can provoke for the time being.

  "Little Prince, Little Prince." The crowd of family members and castle owners slightly bowed, each thinking to themselves, if the Duke of Donglin and the Ye Family Castle were to clash, which side should they help, or should they not help either?

  Although Yejia Fortress has a peerless genius who can become the strongest, it is also possible that under the wrath of the Duke of Donglin, Yejia Fortress will be razed to the ground, unless Xuan Yi's side also sends someone to intervene, and it depends on how the situation develops.

  Ye Chen sat at the front of the hall, his mind slightly moving, and his divine soul fell on these people. One was a ninth-order peak, three were ninth-order mid-term, five were ninth-order initial stage, and the rest were eighth-order. That little prince Wang also reached the eighth-order peak stage.

  "Today Yejia Fortress is indeed lively, the scene is even bigger than when my father took office." Liu Zhen swung his folding fan and walked into the hall, saying coldly.

  "Master Wang has come from afar, and Yejia Fortress is honored to have him. Please, Master Wang, take a seat." Ye Cangxuan said this with his mouth, but in his heart he was thinking of a countermeasure. This was Yejia Fortress, after all, and there were many clan elders and fortress masters present. Even if they were far inferior to the East Lin County Prince's Manor in terms of strength, they couldn't show weakness.

  Liu Zhen's gaze was fixed straight ahead, falling on Ye Chen's body. His eyes narrowed, flashing a hint of ferocity: "Is this the new head of the Ye family? What great audacity, seeing me, the king, and not even coming down to greet me!"

  "Little Prince, this is Yejia Fort, not the East Lin County Wangfu. Since Little Prince didn't send a visiting card, how can I go down to welcome you?" Ye Chen said calmly, Liu Zhen's overbearing attitude made Ye Chen very displeased, and it was clear that Liu Zhen had come to bully the Ye family, so Ye Chen didn't bother to be polite with him.

  "What sharp teeth!" Liu Zhen's gaze swept over the Ye family crowd, "This is what you call a genius in your Ye family fortress? Don't be too proud of yourselves yet, before he becomes a tenth-tier strongman, this Donglin County still belongs to my father. You families are still under my king father's jurisdiction, otherwise, the Black Armor Army's iron cavalry will leave no grass standing!"

  The heads of other families and the castle owners did not dare to speak, the power of the Donglin County Wangfu was too strong, except for top-level masters, there were also more than a thousand black armor guards at level seven, and now Yejia Castle is still quite dangerous to oppose the Donglin County Wangfu.

  Ye Cangxuan, Ye Zhantian and others clenched their fists tightly, although they felt aggrieved in their hearts, but they really couldn't afford to have a complete falling out with the Duke of Donglin, otherwise the army would be pressed against the border, and the foundation of the Ye family would be destroyed overnight.

  "Please calm down, Young Master. Ye Chen is just a seventeen-year-old kid, it's inevitable that he would act impulsively." Xu Jian, the master of the Xu family, stepped out to mediate, speaking with a warm smile.

  "Xu Jian, who do you think you are? Get out of here! I'm telling all of you, listen up, every single one of you. Your families, as long as your family's foundation is still in Donglin County, you'd better behave yourselves. If anyone dares to gang up..." Liu Zhen let out a cold snort, his words not leaving any room for mercy.

  Xu Jian's face turned red, but he didn't dare argue back and could only retreat in anger.

  Many clan leaders and castle owners were angry with Liu Zhen's arrogance, but they could do nothing about it.

  "I'll say it again, get down here! Since I'm here, you still don't give me a seat? If the Ye family village is obedient and willing to surrender to my father, I'll let the Ye family village live in peace. Otherwise, today will be the day my father sends the Black Armor Guard to trample this place into flat ground!" Liu Zhen pointed at Ye Chen, who was sitting at the top of the hall, and said menacingly.

  Seeing Liu Zhen pointing at himself, Ye Chen's face turned iron-green, grasping the armrest, the mysterious energy in his body surged, if it were before, he might have gotten angry and struck out, Liu Zhen wouldn't have thought of leaving Yejia Fortress alive! However, if he made a move, the East Lin County Wangfu would definitely attack Yejia Fortress without hesitation, the consequences would be unbearable.

  But Yejia Fortress absolutely cannot yield like this!

  The heads of the various tribes and fortresses all understood that Duke Donglin had sent Liu Chen over to intimidate Yejia Fortress. If Yejia Fortress was willing to surrender, then so be it. But if they refused to surrender, they might suffer dire consequences. If Yejia Fortress surrendered to Duke Donglin, he would likely use some special methods to control them. It's said that the Black Armor Guard of Duke Donglin had to take a certain medicine, and if they couldn't get the antidote within a month, they would be better off dead. That's why the Black Armor Guard was extremely loyal to Duke Donglin. If Yejia Fortress were controlled, they would never be able to turn things around for generations to come.

  The power of the Donglin Imperial Palace is too strong, if they turn against us, Yejia Fortress may face a catastrophic disaster.

  Since Ye Jia Bao came into this world, Ye's family has been plagued by disasters. First, they were suppressed by Yun's family, and later he was forced to reveal his strength to help Ye's family get out of trouble, but then he attracted the attention of Donglin County Prince Manor behind Yun's family.

  Would I have to bow my head in front of Liu Zhen? This is absolutely impossible!

  Liu Zhen walked step by step towards the main hall, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became heavy. Qin Jiao and others stared at Ye Cangxuan and other members of the Ye family, with a hint of tension. If Ye Chen didn't come down, they would take action!

  The various castle owners and clan leaders didn't dare to speak, under the powerful prestige of the East Lin County Wangfu, they also had to lower their heads. In their hearts, they secretly thought that Yejia Castle would make trouble with the East Lin County Wangfu to what extent. If Yejia Castle refused to surrender, the East Lin County Wangfu would definitely send troops.

  Unfortunately, the Ye family had just shown a hint of prosperity when they might encounter a catastrophic disaster. The various castle owners and clan leaders couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow in their hearts. If their families produced an extraordinary genius, the outcome would likely be the same.

  In this world, it still depends on one's strength!

  Liu Zhen stepped closer and closer, a hint of killing intent flashed in Ye Chen's eyes. Seeing Ye Chen's expression, Qin Jiao let out a cold hum, the aura of a 9th-stage peak expert spreading out, making everyone present feel a heavy pressure.

  "Does Yejia Fortress really want to rebel?" Liu Zhen coldly stared at Ye Chen, his voice icy as he sneered, "I'd like to see if you Yejia Fortress actually have the guts for it."
