    “I was wondering why that fe from the Duan family was so intimate with Ye Xun earlier on. So this is why… To think that your father and I still wasted our breaths to hand you into his hands just for him to turn to another woman. Turns out he is such a heartless and unfaithful person,” the Second Elder said harshly, but his expression softened when he turned to look at Ye Qingtang.


    “Don’t worry, Tang Tang. So what if your spirit root is gone? Your Second Uncle is here from now on. Let’s see who will still dare to bully you!” asserted Ye Ling.


    Warmth filled Ye Qingtang’s heart. With both the Second Elder and Ye Ling’spany, what did she need to be afraid of?


    “Family master, I think that the Great Elder’s ns are not so simple. He already had wild ambitions from the start, and now that his granddaughter, Ye You, entered the Yunxiao Sect, he’ll not settle for this much. You should be on your guard from now on. Once I return back to the residence, I’ll watch him tightly as well. I want to see what more trouble he can stir up in the Ye family,” said the Second Elder coldly. From the skit that the Great Elder arranged today, the Second Elder had already understood that the Great Elder had clearly tried to take the opportunity to get rid of him.


    “Now that you’re back, I can be at ease. Your injuries…” Ye Ling said worryingly.


    “No trouble. If those Elders from the Duan family fought me one on one, none of them are good enough to be my opponent. It’s not so easy to inflict serious injuries on me with that little ability of theirs,” replied the Second Elder.


    Nodding his head in relief, Ye Ling’s gazended on his daughter, Ye Qingtang. Everything that happened today was far from his expectations. Although he knew that the Great Elder had evil designs, he did not expect the Great Elder to act so brazenly in public.


    Had Ye Qingtang not arrive in time today and wittily made the people from the Duan family leave, as well as scare the Great Elder, the oue would have been disastrous.


    “Tang Tang, you have really grown up,” Ye Ling said emotionally as he looked at Ye Qingtang.


    Ye Qingtang smiled. Looking at the faces of her father and second uncle, she made a firm decision to be powerful as it was the only way for her to protect the people she loved.


    The return of the Ye family’s Second Elder to the residence caused quite a shock throughout the Ye family.


    Originally when the Second Elder was in seclusion, the Great Elder had control of the entire Ye family. But with the Second Elder’s return, everyone was extremely cautious, as they were deeply aware of the fact that his ability was stronger than that of the Great Elder’s.


    Ye Ling and Ye Qingtang were the happiest over the Second Elder’s return, while the Great Elder’s face became uglier by day.


    There were two more days to the Great Elder’s birthday. Despite the terrible conflict that happened on the day when the Second Elder’s ended his seclusion, this news waspletely sealed away from the public.


    Reasonably, the Great Elder Ye’s birthday celebration was a happy asion in Lin Town. Both Ye Ling and the Second Elder were also unwilling to cause amotion in public and temporarily put down their resentment from before. After all, they would not be able to get rid of the Great Elder without a valid reason. What they needed to do now was to wait for such an opportunity toe.


    “Grandfather… the preparations on the residence are about done…” Ye Xun said respectfully as she stood in the Great Elder’s room.


    Although the Great Elder’s scheme was foiled by Ye Qingtang, there was not a slight change in his position in the Ye family. Despite the few of them turning against him openly that day, the Great Elder still appointed Ye Xun to be in charge of the preparation works for his birthday celebration.
