Rebirth: City Sovereign

Ye Tianyi's palm strike landed on a stone pillar in the Ye Family courtyard. The stone pillar emitted a crisp sound, and was shattered into countless of powder by Ye Tianyi's palm.    

The development of the situation had completely exceeded his expectations.    

Ye Tian, and the Ye Family Elders, no one would have thought that in this world, there was actually someone who dared to reject Ye Family!    

Not to mention the position and influence of Ye Family of Beijing in the China, for him to reject the Ye Family's engagement, not only did he give up the opportunity to befriend anyone below that one person in the capital, his Ye Family was also equivalent to having enmity with Ye Family. This matter, was something that no one wanted.    

Moreover, Ye Xixuan was a beauty. Within the China, which man didn't want to hug her and go to bed with her? Even if it was Ye Tian, who had seen all kinds of beauties, it was no exception.    

But Ye Qingying's little bodyguard had unhesitatingly refused the Ye Family's engagement. This was something even Ye Tian did not dare to do!    

Was this bodyguard a otherworldly being, or did Ye Family of Beijing and Ye Yan work together to play with him? Ye Tian didn't know and didn't care.    

The only thing he cared about was stomping that bodyguard under his feet and ruthlessly humiliating him to vent the hatred in his heart!    

"Impudent, he's stepping on Ye Tian's face!"    

Ignoring Ye Yanyun's attempt to stop him, Ye Tian's feet emitted two waves of mana. She flew up into the air and headed towards the Lake-Round Manor.    

"Ye Family coming of age is about to begin, when all the Ye Family people gather, I want to see, what exactly is this Ye Kai!"    

A fierce yell entered into the ears of the Ye Family elders and Ye Yanyun. Ye Tian's figure instantly disappeared into the air.    

Lake-Round Manor, Ye Family Castle Villa.    

Within a spacious Ye Family Hall, a dozen or so people were seated around a black round table. Their faces were pale and their foreheads were covered in fine beads of sweat.    

At this time, a man with white hair at her temples and dressed in a black Chinese tunic stood up from her chair and shouted.    

"Rejecting an engagement? What's going on?"    

"Is there anyone who can give me an accurate answer? What is the situation with Ye Qingying's group?"    

Hearing the man say this, the dozen or so Ye Family elders also looked at each other, not being able to say a single word.    

In normal times, they would not look helpless like this. As people who wielded power in their Ye Family of Beijing, most of the time, they were the ones who planned everything, holding everything in their hands.    

The reason why they were in such a state was because too many things had already happened that were not part of their plan.    

These people never would have thought that the Ye Family would cancel the marriage agreement they had with the Firmament Sect a few months ago at the moment of the coming of age ceremony.    

When this news was released, they were also quite frightened, because this decision did not go through any discussion.    

Everyone turned their heads and looked at the white-haired old man sitting on the highest chair in the empty room.    

"Ye Hua, don't be so agitated. Calm down."    

Old Master Ye opened his wrinkled mouth and spoke to the angry middle-aged man.    

The middle-aged man named Ye Hua was the leader of the Ye Family support generation. Upon hearing Old Master Ye speak like this, he was silent for a good while, then he furrowed his brows and said: "Old Gramps, I have some words to say."    

"Yes." Old Master Ye nodded.    

"Then even if Ye Qingying's group were to go overboard, they wouldn't be able to cause any substantial losses to my Ye Family's industry. Why would they need to consign Xi Xuan to one of her little bodyguards?"    

Hearing Ye Hua's question, everyone pricked up their ears, this was what they wanted to know as well.    

"Ye Hua, do you think that I'm an old fool?" The Old Master Ye laughed.    

"I don't dare." Ye Hua immediately lowered his head and said.    

It was said that seniors came to become elites when they were young. This Old Master Ye had been cultivating the martial way since the time of the Republic of China, and now that he was over a hundred years old, he became more shrewd as time passed. Any major matters regarding Ye Family were all decided by the old man himself.    

Seeing Ye Hua being so respectful to him, the Old Master Ye revealed a wry smile, and slowly said: "This is it, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but just based on his identity, I can't, I can't say."    

"Outsiders thought that I had gone mad from age, which was why I cancelled my engagement with Firmament Sect and gave up the opportunity to befriend them using Ye Family. I didn't expect that none of you would not understand, and wasted my decades of painstaking effort to cultivate them."    

"Since Ye Xuan has not appeared, it seems that you all will not be able to achieve great things and will not be able to do anything."    

Hearing Old Master Ye's words, everyone unconsciously lowered their heads and stayed silent.    

The reason the Ye Family had such a status in the capital today was largely because of the numerous major decisions made by the Old Master Ye. Since the Old Master Ye had already said so, no one dared to refute it.    

But at this moment, the sound of a door opening could be heard.    

"But that guy rejected me!"    

A young and clear voice suddenly sounded out in the hall, causing everyone to look in the direction of the voice, only to see Ye Xixuan dressed in a beautiful bright red dress, with her feet on the ground and high heels, stamping her beautiful feet as she walked towards the hall, her face full of anger.    

"Ximen Xuan, why have you come?"    

Ye Hua immediately asked when he saw Ye Xixuan actually appearing in the conference hall.    

"Can I not ask about my own engagement?" Ye Xixuan's face was extremely pale as he answered.    

This was not because she cared about Ye Qingying's bodyguard, but rather because from a young age, Ye Xixuan had steadily dominated the first place in terms of appearance.    

However, she had always been the only one who rejected others, so how could it be her turn to be rejected?    

Being rejected so decisively was something that Ye Xixuan had never experienced before.    

Furthermore, he was only a personal bodyguard within the Lightness Group?    

"Yeah, I refused." When the old man heard Ye Xixuan's words, not only did he not get angry, he sighed deeply instead.    

"Ye Hua, prepare the carriage for me."    

When Ye Hua heard it, he was slightly taken aback. "Old Gramps, where are you going?"    

"Lightness Group, I want to personally propose."    

With that said, everyone was immediately shocked!    

Old Master Ye went to propose marriage himself?    

If it wasn't for the fact that the old tutor looked like he wanted to get up from his chair, these people would've thought that they'd misheard him.    

What kind of identity does the Old Master Ye have? The person who held the highest authority in the Ye Family of Beijing was an existence that was below one person and above tens of thousands others. If they wanted him to personally pay them a visit, they would have to be figures at the level of presidents!    

No one dared to say anything. They were not stupid, knowing that this man called Ye Kai, who was able to make the Old Master Ye do the job personally, was definitely not just a bodyguard.    

Ye Xixuan was already wronged in her heart, she never thought that Old Master Ye would actually propose marriage herself.    

"Grand Ancestor, Ye Tian is fine, I at least know a little about him and know his background."    

"But I have never seen that bodyguard Ye Qingying before. How can you let me marry him?"    

Ye Xixuan did not understand, she had always been the apple of the eye for his Ye Family. From young, all the elders of the Ye Family, including the Old Master Ye, had always been obedient to him and doted on him as much as they could. It was as if she had become a completely different person.    

The other Ye Family elders also stood up at this time, one of them said with a worried expression: "That's right, that little bodyguard, even if there's some hidden force behind them, he should at least investigate some information and then marry Xi Xuan …"    

Old Master Ye coldly slammed his hand on the table, his eyes sharp as blades as he shouted.    

"Lock Xi Xuan inside her room, get dressed, and send her to the Lightness Group!"    

"If she dares to run around, break her legs!"    

"Ye Hua, prepare the carriage!"    

No one dared to say another word. All of the Ye Family Elders had ashen faces, and held back the things they were about to say. They sat down without a word.    

Ye Xixuan felt unwell in hehereart, but she couldn't refute her. She just found a seat and sat down with a puffed up face, his face full of anger and unwillingness.    

A sheen of cold sweat appeared on Ye Hua's forehead as he slowly spoke out.    

"Yes, Old Master."    

On the eve of Annual Meeting of Ye Family, news that would shock the entire capital was spread out with a loud rumble.    

Ye Family Old Man, Ye Jinxuan will leave the Lake-Round Manor, personally ascend the Lightness Group, and propose!
