The Venerable Swordsman Chapter 12 No Longer a Ye Family Member in This Life

"You!"

The Great Elder pointed at Ye Xuan furiously and his face was iron-blue in anger.

Ye Xuan frostily glanced at the Great Elder and the others and sneered, "Great Elder, it was agreed that the life and death competition was between me and him, but you suddenly started to strike. Hehe, Great Elder, you are really shameless! Everyone is watching, are you not afraid that the Ye Family will become a laughing stock?"

Hearing what Ye Xuan had to say, everyone looked at the Ye Family one after another with quite odd looks.

It was agreed to be an individual challenge, but the Ye Family came to fight all together. This was not a one-on-one competition, but a brawl!

Near the platform, everyone was talking about this!

At the other side, Li Yu and the other two looked at each other, and there were inexplicable smiles in their eyes.

A mistake!

A big mistake!

They had never thought that Ye Lang would not be Ye Xuan's opponent even after he achieved the Qi Varying Realm!

For these three families, this was certainly a good thing!

Li Yu stood up. He looked at the Great Elder of the Ye Family. "Great elder, you invite us to watch the contest. So, you want us to watch your Ye Family members lynch one teenager?"

At the side, Zhang Lie sneered, "This is the legendary life and death competition? Once you are on the Life and Death Platform, you start a gang fight? That really makes me want to laugh..."

Jiang Nian, the Chatelain, cast a glance at the Great Elder and said frostily, "Great Elder, everyone is still watching!"

The Great Elder's face looked extremely terrible. He glanced at Ye Lang next to him. At this moment, the armor Ye Lang was wearing was already broken into pieces!

Not only that, but Ye Lang's mouth was bleeding constantly, apparently he had suffered from extremely serious internal injuries!

"If he continues, he will be killed by Ye Xuan!"

Thinking about this, the Great Elder slowly clenched his hands!

Just then, Ye Xuan, who was not far away, suddenly smiled, "It seems that Great Elder is not going to let me compete with him one-on-one. However, you just haven't found an excuse to get rid of me! Come on, say it, I am listening! Everyone is listening!"

The Great Elder looked up at Ye Xuan, "Ye Xuan, I suspect that this contest is not fair, you definitely cheated, you..."

At this point, Ye Xuan suddenly pointed irately at the Great Elder. "Cheated? You old dog, can you be any more shameless? I fought one-on-one with him. But once I win, you accuse me of cheating? Your face has even thicker skin than my ass!"

The Great Elder ordered heartlessly, "Members of the Ye Family listen, Ye Xuan defied his superiors and has started a rebellion, shoot him to death for me!"

Obviously, he was so eager to kill Ye Xuan that he didn't care about anything else!

"Wow!"

Near the platform, there was an outcry!

"The Ye Family is really shameless! They can't afford to lose!"

"It's not just that they can't afford to lose, it's extremely shameless. If someone else won, it turns into a case of cheating? Is this the nature of the Ye Family's Great Elder?"

"What option does he have? That chosen one is his grandson! How could he let him die? Even so, it's still shameless to do this!"

In the stands, the middle-aged man from Yan City and the beautiful woman from Luo City looked at each other and shook their heads. Their eyes were full of undisguised disdain.

Around the Life and Death Platform, the crossbowmen stared at each other speechlessly. At this time, the Great Elder roared furiously, "Why aren't you shooting him?"

The guards hesitated, then just as they were about to shoot, right at this point, a voice suddenly sounded on the spot. "The Patriarch is out of his secluded meditation!"

Hearing these words, the Great Elder trembled a little. He looked at the gate of Ye's Manor, from which a middle-aged man slowly came out.

This person was the current lord of Ye Family, Ye Cang! He was also the strongest in the Ye Family!

"Greetings, Patriarch!"

In the field, everyone bowed down.

Ye Xuan glanced at Ye Cang and did not speak.

Ye Cang walked onto the Life and Death Platform. He glanced at the Great Elder and said, "You did a hell of a job!"

The Great Elder's face was a bit unsightly, he gave a little salute, "Patriarch!"

Ye Cang ignored the Great Elder. Instead, he cupped his hands and saluted around, "Laugh at me, everyone!"

With this, he glanced at the Great Elder. "From this moment on, you are no longer the Great Elder and you will be demoted into an ordinary elder. You will never be in power in your lifetime!"

Hearing this, the Great Elder's face changed a little and he was about to speak, but Ye Cang looked toward Ye Xuan. "Let us put an end to this, will you?"

Ye Xuan shook his head. He pointed to Ye Lang nearby. "My life and death competition with him is not yet over!"

Hearing his words, Ye Cang's brows slightly wrinkled.

At this time, the Great Elder and a group of other elders came beside Ye Cang. The Great Elder sank his voice to say, "Patriarch, Ye Lang is the chosen one who has also attracted the vision of heaven and earth. His future is boundless. Though he was defeated by Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan's Elixir Field is broken so he is a cripple already. He will become nothing more than a rough-neck in his life and surely it is impossible for him to get out of this Qing City."

Ye Cang looked at the Great Elder distantly. "Because of you, his Elixir Field was broken, am I right?"

The Great Elder clenched his fists. "I did it! Patriarch, he has no future. But Ye Lang has an infinite future. Today, keep him alive, and in the future, he will surely win honor and distinction for the Ye Family!"

The elders around all agreed.

Ye Lang couldn't be killed!

Because he was related to the honor and disgrace of the Ye Family in the future!

Ye Cang was silent.

Every family needed geniuses. Ye Xuan's Elixir Field was broken. Undoubtedly, it was impossible for him to take responsibility for the Ye Family's future. By contrast, this Ye Lang was the chosen one who had attracted the vision of heaven and earth!

The Ye Family needed someone like him!

Thinking of this, Ye Cang looked at Ye Xuan. "From now on, all your previous treatments will be restored except the title of Heir Apparent. This matter ends here, do you understand?"

Ye Xuan smiled.

His smile was sad and dreary!

Ye Xuan looked at Ye Cang. "In fact, Patriarch should have known of all the things that happened in Ye's Manor long before. However, Patriarch did not come out to restrain it but instead indulged the Great Elder who treated me like this. Presumably, Patriarch not only dreads the Great Elder and the others but also dreads me. You are afraid that I will threaten you if I grow too fast, aren't you?"

Ye Cang's eyes narrowed slightly, "You are indeed indiscreet!"

"Indiscreet?"

Ye Xuan said with a laugh, "Patriarch, the Great Elder and Ye Lang, together with the others, suppressed me severely like this, and secretly broke my Elixir Field, won't you deal with this matter at all? Or, I am already a total wreck and I'm doomed to never go any further, so it is not worthy of you to offend Ye Lang for me because I don't have any value now, am I right?"

Ye Cang gazed intensely at Ye Xuan. Though he made no answer, there was already killing intent in his eyes!

Although Ye Xuan used to be the genius of the Ye Family, he was not the grandson of the Great Elder, nor was he a direct descendant of Ye Cang. Just as Ye Xuan said, he was really afraid of him!

This time, he stayed in secluded meditation and didn't come out. His purpose for that was in fact as Ye Xuan said, he wanted to let Ye Xuan and the Great Elder fight till death, so he could weaken both sides when he came out!

A balance tactic!

As the family lord, he never felt that he did anything wrong, but now Ye Xuan had revealed this terrible truth, which meant that there was no turning back for everyone!

There was only silence around, and everyone was watching Ye Xuan!

At this moment, even Li Yu and the others felt unworthy of Ye Xuan!

Although aristocratic families were realistic, they treated a family hero like this which really made people feel like they were chilling and despicable!

At this time, Ye Xuan smiled, laughing extremely desolately. He turned to glance at Ye's Manor. There were traces of waves in his eyes. He seemed to recall the past. "I, Ye Xuan, became a Childe at twelve. I don't know how many times I had desperately fought for the Ye Family. However, all my contributions brought a result like this."

With this, he took off the Ye Family mark from his chest and threw it on the ground. "I, Ye Xuan, swear in front of everyone today. From now on, my sister and I will no longer belong to the Ye Family in this life. My sister and I have nothing to do with the Ye Family while we're alive and we won't be buried in the Ye Family Ancestral Shrine when we're dead!"

Hearing his words, the look of everyone around suddenly changed!

Especially the Ye Family members!

Withdraw from the family!

It was something that had never happened in Qing City before!

Even the eyes of Li Yu and the others were full of disbelief. This Ye Xuan was really going to sever ties with the Ye Family!

Ye Cang stared at Ye Xuan, "This is your choice!"

Ye Xuan said no more and turned away!

At this moment, the Great Elder abruptly said, "Wait!"

Ye Xuan stopped.

The Great Elder looked at Ye Xuan hardheartedly and then looked at Ye Cang. "Patriarch, although this person's Elixir Field is broken such that he has no prospects in the future, at this moment his fighting capacity is quite good, so if we don't get rid of him now, he will definitely become a serious concern for our Ye Family in the future!"

At the side, an elder in a black robe said in a deep voice, "Patriarch, Ye Xuan openly betrayed the family. If we don't kill him now, others may follow his example. Moreover, this person has a pretty good fighting capacity, if he is recruited by other families, he will be a big disaster for the Ye Family!"

Hearing his words, the elders of the Ye Family echoed his view!

Ye Cang stared at Ye Xuan steadily. All of a sudden, he raised his right hand. In no time, all the crossbowmen at the scene aimed directly at Ye Xuan in succession!

Ye Cang's emotionless voice sounded, "Ye Xuan has openly betrayed the family. According to the family rules, he should be executed immediately. Kill him!"

Just when the crossbowmen were going to strike, at this point, a voice abruptly sounded in the field, "Wait!"

Everyone looked towards the voice, ad in the near distance, a woman with a long spear ambled toward them!

Seeing this woman, the Great Elder and the others suddenly changed their expressions!

Not only the Great Elder, Jiang Nian and the others also changed their faces, especially Jiang Nian. He rushed to the woman's front and then saluted deeply. "I am the lord of Qing City, greetings, National Warrior!"

The National Warrior!

The person who had arrived was An Lanxiu!

The youngest National Warrior of Jiang Country!

In Jiang Guo, a National Warrior's rank was higher than any other official, even the King had no right to restrain them. Except for the King, any officials in Jiang Country should salute them upon seeing them!

At this time, the middle-aged man in Yan City and the beautiful woman in Luo City also hurriedly went before An Lanxiu. They saluted slightly, and the middle-aged man said, "My name is Mo Xing, on behalf of the Mo Family in Yan City, greetings, National Warrior!"

The beautiful woman followed immediately, "I'm Yu Jia, on behalf of the Yu Family in Luo City, greetings, National Warrior!"

As individuals, they were not qualified to accost her. They could barely come to accost her on behalf of their family!

An Lanxiu nodded slightly. "I have something to deal with."

The three quickly stepped aside.

All eyes turned to her, An Lanxiu tiptoed gently, and her whole body rose up in the air like a gentle breeze, then she gracefully fell on the Life and Death Platform!

The Ascending Realm!

Everyone gasped!

The youngest person to achieve the Ascending Realm in Jiang Country!

An Lanxiu walked slowly towards Ye Xuan. "The two-day appointment between you and me has arrived!"

This surprise rooted everyone to the ground, especially the Great Elder and the others, and they looked like ghosts.

"She is going to challenge Ye Xuan!"

In the field, someone came back and exclaimed.

"God, she really wants to challenge Ye Xuan! This... How is this possible?"

Not far away, the Great Elder muttered like a lost soul. "How could... How could she challenge Ye Xuan, whose Elixir Field is already broken... It's absolutely impossible!"

Ye Cang clenched his fists, staring firmly at Ye Xuan not far away.

In the eyes of everyone, Ye Xuan looked at An Lanxiu, "Good!"

When his voice fell, he spread out his palm. In a split second, a sword appeared in his palm!

The Spiritual Sword!

At this moment, everyone on the spot was petrified.

"He is a Sword Cultivator..."

In the field, a voice sounded.

With the sound of this voice, the surroundings suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
