Chapter 2528: Good Brothers!

"No, no, no... I... I'll be your brother! I'll be your brother!"

Tang Yu, ignoring the pain, quickly agreed.

Better to end a feud than to keep it going!

A broken arm, what's the big deal?

His life was what mattered!

Ye Yuan looked at him with a faint smile and said, "Being brothers depends on fate! It's not something you can just decide to do!"

A herd of divine beasts stampeded through Tang Yu's heart!

Weren't you the one who wanted to be brothers just now? How, in the blink of an eye, does it depend on fate?

These spoiled brats usually acted aloof, as if they were above worldly affairs.

In truth, they had experienced little bloodshed and were the most cowardly.

Which ascender from the lower realm hadn't fought through mountains of corpses and seas of blood?

In terms of ferocity, ten thousand Tang Yus couldn't match Ye Yuan.

By now, he was scared out of his wits by Ye Yuan.

"F-fate? Big brother, we have the most fate! From now on, you are my big brother, Tang Yu!" Tang Yu quickly said.

Ye Yuan shook his head and smiled. "Did the Tang family have a hand in killing Yang Xuezhen's father?"

Tang Yu's pupils contracted, and he shook his head like a rattle-drum. "No! Absolutely not! That whole affair was orchestrated by Li Batian, who framed and killed Yang Yu. Later, he came to me... your little brother, with heavy gifts, and I reluctantly agreed. Big... big brother, it really had nothing to do with me!"

At this point, Tang Yu, caring nothing for his dignity as a young master, directly referred to himself as the younger brother.

Ye Yuan read his expression and saw that Tang Yu didn't seem to be lying.

Of course, even if he was lying, Ye Yuan didn't care.

Li Zhengqiu was terrified and quickly said, "Young Master Yu, how can you say that? This matter was clearly carried out by my Li family on the orders of the Tang family. Otherwise, how would my father have dared to act?"

Among the experts present, those in the know shook their heads inwardly.

Li Zhengqiu's words seemed clever but were actually incredibly stupid.

Even if he survived today, the Tang family's wrath would be far more terrifying!

Li Zhengqiu was dragging the entire Li family down with him!

Sure enough, Tang Yu exploded upon hearing this.

Ignoring his injuries, he scrambled up and kicked Li Zhengqiu in the chest.

"You dog of a servant, how dare you frame me! Today, I will destroy you! No, not just you! Your Li family will be erased from the imperial city!" Tang Yu roared.

In his fury, Tang Yu's kick was without restraint, using almost all his strength!

Li Zhengqiu took the full force, his eyes rolling back as he gasped for breath.

Ye Yuan did not stop this. To finish the job, Li Zhengqiu and the Li family had to die.

Once this was done, Ye Yuan would have repaid Yang Xuezhen's favor.

"B-big brother, don't listen to his slander! This matter really has nothing to do with me!" Tang Yu almost sobbed.

Ye Yuan put on a smiling face and said, "We're brothers, I believe you! But my friend here was frightened. Do you know what to do?"

The friend Ye Yuan referred to was naturally Yang Xuezhen.

Tang Yu nodded like a chick pecking rice and quickly said, "Big brother, rest assured! Your little brother understands! From tomorrow, no, from today onward, the Li family will cease to exist in Donglin Kingdom!"

Ye Yuan smiled without speaking. Tang Yu's heart trembled, and his gaze fell on Lü Yuanjie and Gui Tianyu.

"Big brother, rest assured! The Lü and Gui families will also disappear!" Tang Yu said with a fierce look.

Lü Yuanjie and Gui Tianyu shuddered, their hearts filled with terror.

This was serious!

Their momentary impulse had brought about the destruction of their families.

The price was too heavy!

"M-Master Ye, your little brother was blind and offended you! Please... please spare me!"

Lü Yuanjie was full of regret!

He never imagined that his family would be wiped out because of an ascender!

"Master Ye, I'm... I'm sorry. Please... spare me!" Gui Tianyu said fearfully.

Ye Yuan smiled. "Hey, you come from good backgrounds, so showing off a bit is understandable. But Gui Tianyu harbored murderous intent toward me, repeatedly trying to kill me. Just now, he even tried to use Tang Yu to kill me! Heh, do you think I'm that magnanimous?"

Whoosh!

A figure flashed by. Tang Yu's kick was vicious, and Gui Tianyu was clearly done for.

Then, his gaze fell on Lü Yuanjie, scaring the wits out of him.

Tang Yu moved to strike, but Ye Yuan said calmly, "Enough. Before tomorrow, have your two families disappear from the imperial city, and this matter is settled. If you haven't left by this time tomorrow, I will personally pay a visit!"

Lü Yuanjie, hearing these words as if they were heavenly music, quickly nodded like a chick pecking rice. "Master, rest assured! I will return home and immediately withdraw from the capital!"

With that, he fled in panic.

With everything settled, Tang Yu said cautiously, "Big brother, are you satisfied?"

Ye Yuan smiled. "Not bad. Since that's the case, you can go back now. Of course, you can also bring the Tang family to seek revenge on me, but... next time, I won't hold back. Go!"

Tang Yu, as if granted amnesty, quickly led his family guards away in a panic.

Soon, the noisy Yang residence was empty.

In the议事大殿, only the stunned Yang Xuezhen, Yang Jin, and the middle-aged woman remained.

No one had expected that what seemed certain would be completely overturned at the last moment!

Yang Xuezhen, the isolated orphan, had pulled off a stunning reversal with the help of an ascender!

The change was so swift that before they could react, it was over!

The middle-aged woman knelt before Ye Yuan, sobbing, "M-Master, spare me! I was forced into all of this!"

Ye Yuan did not respond but smiled. "This is your family matter; I won't interfere. But I think no one should object to Yang Xuezhen inheriting the position of family head now, right?"

Only an idiot would object!

No one in the Yang family dared to speak, effectively acknowledging Yang Xuezhen's status.

Yang Xuezhen was still dazed. She hadn't expected Ye Yuan to be so powerful.

But the scene before her caught her off guard.

She instinctively wanted to refuse, but Ye Yuan gave her a look, and she inexplicably responded, "Yes! Anyone who objects can step up and challenge me!"

No one dared to speak, effectively giving their consent.

But Yang Xuezhen's first words were, "Ye Yuan, you shouldn't have let Tang Yu go! You don't know the Tang family's power. Once he leaves, the Yang family will face annihilation!"

Ye Yuan was unconcerned and smiled. "Don't worry, Tang Yu is much smarter than those two fools. Of course, if he insists on seeking death, I won't mind seeing him off."
