Qing City, the Ye Family, the Ancestral Shrine.

“The ancestors are watching, Ye Xuan has no talent or virtue… From this moment on, Ye Xuan will be deposed, and Ye Lang will succeed him as the Heir Apparent.”

An old man in a black robe said.

Not far behind the old man stood a teenager with a slight smile hanging on his mouth. He was Ye Lang.

People on both sides were the elders of Ye’s Manor.

“Why!”

Just then, a timid sound rose suddenly in the Ancestral Shrine.

Following the voice, everyone saw a little girl standing at the door. This little girl was about twelve or thirteen years old, and her two small hands clenched the corner of the skirt. Her face was a little pale and morbid. She seemed a bit fragile, and there was a trace of nervousness in her eyes.

This little girl named Ye Ling was Ye Xuan’s blood sister. She heard the family was going to depose Ye Xuan, so she rushed here regardless of her illness.

The old man in a black robe frowned and said, “Ye Ling, what are you doing!”

The little girl named Ye Ling gave a little salute to everyone in the Ancestral Shrine and said timidly, “Great elder, my brother Ye Xuan is the Heir Apparent, why do you want to depose him?”

The great elder glanced at Ye Ling coldly. “This is a family event. Why do you interrupt? Go away!”

Ye Ling was obviously a little frightened. She did not dare to look directly at the great elder, but she did not leave. She took the courage to walk into the Ancestral Shrine. Once again, she gave a little salute to the elders on both sides. “Elders, my brother is now vying with the Li Family for the mining rights in Nanshan. He risks his life for the family, and his wellbeing is unknown. However, the family has deposed his Heir Apparent title at this time. It is really unfair.”

“How dare you!”

The great elder suddenly became angry and said, “Whether we depose him or not, it’s not your place to comment, you wench. Somebody, come and drag her away.”

At this point, the new Heir Apparent suddenly smiled and said, “She should be punished by flogging thirty times as a warning to others!”

The great elder said coldly, “Then give her 30 floggings!”

Soon, two guards in Ye’s Manor rushed in.

Ye Ling held her hands tightly and said angrily, “It’s unfair, my brother has gone through so many trials for the family for so many years. Even at this very moment, he is fighting desperately for the family. But the family is so unfair to him…”

One of the guards glanced at the new Heir Apparent Ye Lang, and he knew that his chance was here.

The guard smiled coldly. “Childe Ye Lang’s inheritance of the Heir Apparent is welcomed by the general public.” With this, he raised his hand and slapped Ye Ling in the face.

“Pa!”

There was a clear sound of a slap, and Ye Ling’s right cheek instantly became red and swollen. But she did not cry, she just covered her cheek tightly.

Ye Lang looked the guard over. He smiled and asked, “What is your name?”

The guard gave a salute promptly. “I am Zhang Mu. Greetings, Heir Apparent.”

Ye Lang nodded, “You are very good. When I become the Heir Apparent, I will need ten bodyguards, and you will be one of them.”

Hearing this, Zhang Mu was overjoyed and immediately made a profound salute. “I will go through anything for you and I am willing to risk any danger to do my duty for you, Heir Apparent!”

Ye Lang nodded slightly. “Take her away. This person disturbed the Ancestral Shrine. Don’t be lenient, do you understand?”

Zhang Mu looked at Ye Lang and saw the killing intent in the eyes of Ye Lang and understood. He instantly grabbed Ye Ling by her hair and dragged her out.

At this moment, Zhang Mu suddenly stopped when he saw something.

In the Ancestral Shrine, people turned their heads one after another to look outside.

Not far from the shrine, a teenager was walking to the Ancestral Shrine. He wore a tight long robe which was tattered, and there was blood everywhere.

The person who came was exactly Ye Xuan who had hurried back from Nanshan!

Seeing Ye Xuan, a cold smile appeared at the corner of Ye Lang’s mouth. In the Ancestral Shrine, the elders all frowned.

The great elder’s eyes slightly narrowed, and his gloomy face looked horrible. No one knew what he was thinking about.

In the distance, when Ye Xuan saw Ye Ling who was dragged by Zhang Mu in hand, his face instantly became ferocious. “Who gave you the courage to touch my sister, you piece of shit?”

When Zhang Mu saw Ye Xuan, his face suddenly changed. He quickly looked at Ye Lang and was about to talk, but at this moment, Ye Xuan jumped in front of him all of a sudden like a tiger. Before Zhang Mu could react, Ye Xuan punched him in the face.

“Bang!”

Zhang Mu’s head felt a fit of dizziness, his whole body staggered and fell down.

But Ye Xuan did not stop as he once again rushed toward Zhang Mu. At this time, Ye Lang who was inside the Ancestral Shrine suddenly bellowed in anger, “Ye Xuan, he is my man, you dare…”

Ye Xuan suddenly stepped on the chest of Zhang Mu.

“Puff!”

Zhang Mu spewed a mouthful of blood immediately.

Seeing this scene, Ye Lang’s face became incomparably ugly. But Ye Xuan just looked up at him and said fiercely, “Your man?”

With this, he slammed his foot on Zhang Mu’s face.
