"Leng Hao used his trump card. Looks like the outcome is a foregone conclusion!"
Below the stage, someone immediately cried out in surprise.
Leng Hao's momentum was shocking. His sword lights virtually enveloped Leng Xu completely.
However, amidst the sword rain, Leng Xu said coolly, "Xi Yu Hao Ling Sword, is it? Big Brother Leng Hao, with ten days of practicing the sword, I finally had some understanding. Let us decide the victor with the Xi Yu Hao Ling Sword!"
Finished saying, Leng Xu swung his long sword. Ten thousand streams of sword intent condensed frenziedly, and actually faintly suppressed Leng Hao.
Leng Hao's expression suddenly changed and said, "Impossible! Middle-stage rank five Sword Dao law! You never grasped it after so many years of comprehension, so how can you possibly suddenly comprehend it?!"
He suddenly discovered that these ten days, the changes that happened to Leng Xu were too many.
Not only did he break through his realm, he even broke through Sword Dao laws.
Could this be a coincidence?
This coincidence was also a bit too many, right?!
However, there was already no time for Leng Hao to consider.
Only to see two powerful Sword Dao laws collide together fiercely.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
On the stage, incomparably dazzling light bloomed, countless powerful sword lights bombarded together.
"Puhwark!"
Suddenly, Leng Hao spewed out a mouthful of fresh blood, body flying out backward, falling heavily on top of the stage.
He desperately wanted to crawl up, but a sword was already pressed on his throat. Another inch further and he would kick the bucket.
"Big Brother Leng Hao, you lost!"
Leng Xu's nonchalant words made Leng Hao shudder.
Death-like silence!
The battle that was originally just going through the motions actually had a shocking reversal.
The Leng Xu that no one was optimistic about actually won!
Which was also to say that Leng Xu was still the young patriarch?
For some time, quite a few people's hearts started racing.
These days, quite a number among them kicked him while he was down, and did not show Leng Xu any good attitude.
If Leng Xu continued to be the young patriarch, wouldn't he find them to settle the scores afterward?
These people had their own little schemes. Actually, no one really cared about them.
Right now, the most awkward one was Leng Hongxiu and the elders.
They arranged this duel in order to let Leng Hao ascend to the position of young patriarch right and properly. Who knew that Leng Hao actually lost.
Of course, this could not be blamed on Leng Hao.
Leng Xu's improvement, everyone saw it.
Ten days' time, Leng Xu could be said to have been reborn anew!
But, this conclusion, how should the matter be wound up?
No one spoke. An atmosphere called awkwardness spread through the crowd.
Leng Hao's face was deathly pale, his heart like dead ashes.
Many years of hard work wiped out in a day, that kind of unwillingness was virtually going to burst through the sky.
"Hahaha, what a joke! Your Leng Family really made a spectacular blunder! Hahaha …"
Right at this time, a taunting voice sounded out.
A group of powerhouses rushed straight into the Leng Family's manor.
Leng Hongxiu's face turned dark and he said in a cold voice, "Han Dongjun, you dare to barge into my Leng Manor without permission, are you tired of living?"
But Han Dongjun's face fell and he said, "Leng Hongxiu, my son was killed, but your Leng Family is harboring the murderer, why can't I barge inside?"
Leng Hongxiu said in a cold voice, "Nonsense, why would our Leng Family harbor your son's murderer?"
Han Dongjun chuckled and said, "This, will have to ask your new, oh, nope, old young patriarch!"
Leng Hongxiu's brows furrowed and his gaze involuntarily looked towards Leng Xu.
Leng Hao originally already lost all hope. But Han Dongjun's appearance made him ignite the last trace of hope!
"Leng Xu, you covered up sinister motives and actually colluded with outsiders to make our Leng Family lose face! My Young Brother Xu, I know that you're not happy with big brother, but this is our Leng Family's affairs after all. You doing this really disappoints people too much!" Leng Hao got up and said righteously.
Leng Xu also did not expect that Han Dongjun actually directly brought people to barge into the Leng Family.
"Xu-er, shouldn't you give us an explanation?" Leng Hongxiu's tone also gradually turned cold.
As the saying went, don't wash dirty linen in public.
No matter how troubled it was in the family, one also should not lose face until it went outside.
Even though the Leng Family's internal strife was already not some secret.
But Han Dongjun came too coincidentally; just nice the crucial part of selecting the young patriarch. This had to make people's minds fall into a reverie.
Leng Xu was silent for a moment and said coolly, "Han Xiao was killed by me. If you want the person, take me away."
But when Han Dongjun heard it, he burst out laughing. But very soon, his expression turned dark and he said in a cold voice, "Punk, you can't escape responsibility either! But, the person who killed my son, I've long investigated it clearly. It's a brat called Ye Yuan!"
Hearing this name, that ten thousand years ice-like face of Leng Qiuling's finally had a trace of change.
Leng Hongxiu was slightly surprised and asked, "You know him?"
Leng Qiuling recovered her calm very quickly and shook her head and said, "Shouldn't be the same person."
On Heavenspan Mountain, the shock that that person brought to her was too intense. Such that until now, that person's figure was still revolving around in her mind, unable to wave away for a long time.
Except, it was impossible that the Ye Yuan out of Han Dongjun's mouth was that the Ye Yuan she knew.
With Ye Yuan's cultivation speed, it was also impossible to reach Celestial Deity Realm now, even if his performance on the Heavenspan Mountain was extremely breathtaking.
Pray tell, a martial artist who used more than 500 years before barely managing to cultivate to the Divine Lord Realm, how could he possibly break through to Celestial Deity Realm in a short four to five hundred years?
One had to know, the breakthrough to the Celestial Deity Realm was more than a hundred times harder than the Divine Lord Realm!
Leng Xu's expression was very ugly. He knew that Ye Yuan was right under the stage, he wanted to let Ye Yuan slip away quickly by taking advantage of the crowd.
But Ye Yuan did not have the intention of leaving at all.
Swoosh!
Just as Leng Xu was in a daze, Leng Hao suddenly launched a sneak attack, suddenly smacking a palm toward Leng Xu.
"Leng Family's traitor! Why haven't you hand over the person yet? Kneel down for me!"
This palm was too sudden, Leng Xu did not react at all. When he wanted to defend, it was already too late.
But right at this time, a figure appeared out of thin air, charging out from the side.
Bang!
An incomparably heavy palm force directly smacked Leng Hao flying.
"For your own selfish interests, not scrupling to kill your younger brother. Outsiders came to invade and you didn't stint to sell out your brother, letting outsiders see a joke. A person like you is also fit to be the young patriarch? The Leng Family is really a joke!"
Ye Yuan's words were full of cynicism.
Seeing that slightly thin figure on the stage, Leng Qiuling's gaze was full of shock.
Chapter 1850 - Take This Boy Down for Me!
"You … Who the hell do you think you are? To dare gesture and comment on my Leng Family's affairs? Killing my brother? What proof do you have? The one who made the Leng Family
lose face is you and Leng Xu. Not me, Leng Hao! You stand here and spout empty rhetoric, based on what?"
Leng Hao being kicked flying by Ye Yuan with a foot, his gaze when looking at Ye Yuan was full of enmity.
Ever since Leng Xu knew Ye Yuan, everything seemed to have changed.
But now, it was a God-given opportunity!
Ye Yuan himself courted death, provoking Han Dongjun. This was a chance for him to turn the situation around!
When Han Dongjun saw Ye Yuan, his two eyes were practically spewing fire.
"You're that Ye Yuan who killed my Xiao-er?" Han Dongjun gnashed his teeth in hatred and said.
Ye Yuan just smiled slightly. His thoughts stirred, a maidservant and a black-clothed man fell onto the stage.
He turned to Leng Hongxiu and said coolly, "This maidservant is a spy that Leng Hao planted around Leng Xu. A few days ago, she put Heavenly Fragrance Tendon Softening Powder into Leng Xu's food. It was in order to make Leng Xu lose today's battle for the young patriarch position. As for this black-clothed man, he's Leng Hao's confidant. What Leng Hao has done these few years, as long as Family Head searches his soul, you'll naturally know everything."
Seeing these two people, Leng Hao's expression changed drastically.
That maidservant was still alright, but that man in black was his right arm and knew his affairs like the back of his hand.
If his soul was searched, it was all over!
Actually, that day at the Leng Manor's entrance, Ye Yuan already detected the existence of this black-clothed man.
It was just that the other party did not make a move, he did not take action either.
That day, the black-clothed man and the maidservant met secretly but was detected by Ye Yuan who had sharp spiritual sense. He caught them red-handed.
But in order not to stir the grass and alert the enemy, he deliberately let the black-clothed man leave.
Today, taking advantage of the interval of the battle for young patriarch, Ye Yuan went to capture the black-cloth man and this maid.
Leng Hao's countenance naturally collapsed on its own.
"Family Head, don't listen to this guy's words! He has evil designs. I don't know these two people at all!" Leng Hao's eyes revealed some panic but defended himself through sophistry.
These few years, in order to become the young patriarch, he did quite a number of things that could not be exposed to the sun.
Once it was exposed, he would be totally ruined!
But Ye Yuan pursed his mouth and said disdainfully, "If not for Leng Xu, do you think that I'd bother with this nonsensical and messy thing? Fabricating charges against you? You, are you also worthy?"
Leng Hongxiu's expression was also not looking too good.
Right now, the development of things had gone far beyond his expectations.
How could he not perceive the panic in Leng Hao's eyes?
However, Leng Hao was not some heinous and wicked beyond redemption person in his impression.
On the contrary, he thought very highly of Leng Hao.
It was also precisely so that he pushed for Leng Hao to become the young patriarch.
Leng Xu's personality was too undisciplined and carefree. Honestly speaking, it was also not suited to inherit the position of family head.
These were all within Leng Hao's scope of considerations.
He was currently the head of a family and had no choice but to consider a little further.
But right at this time, the Han Dongjun who had been treated as air all along said furiously, "Punk, I'm talking to you, didn't you hear me? Are you the murderer Ye Yuan who killed my Xiao-er?"
Ye Yuan rolled his eyes and said crossly, "Who are you, do I know you? Why do I have to talk to you? Also, didn't Leng Hao called my name just now? Are you deaf, didn't you hear?"
"Pffft!"
Ye Yuan's words made the Leng Family's people all simmer with laughter.
Even the Han Family people that he brought also could not refrain from laughing.
Han Dongjun's fury towered to the sky. His son was killed, and he even had to be scoffed at by this fellow. What was it with this world?
"Little brute, you actually dared to kill Xiao-er. Today, even if the Jade Emperor comes, he can't save you either!" Han Dongjun said angrily.
Ye Yuan said with a scornful look, "When I killed Han Xiao, there were many people around. It was clearly him who ambushed, wanting to kill me but was counter-killed by me. But now, you're questioning me. Heh, the Han Family's people are really overbearing!"
Han Dongjun said in a cold voice, "Who the hell do you think you are, to also dare compare to my Xiao-er? You're just a trash who's less than animals in front of him!"
Ye Yuan shrugged and said, "Yeah, I, this trash who's less than animals, killed your son using only one move. Your son is lesser than … even a trash who's less than animals!"
"Pffft!"
Another burst of laughter sounded out, making Han Dongjun unable to contain his anger. He roared, "What are you laughing at?! Laugh again and I'll tear your mouths!"
Finished talking, his expression was very grim as he turned to Leng Hongxiu and said, "Leng Hongxiu, what are you going to do? I'm going to bring the person away right now, you have no objections, right? He already admitted to killing Xiao-er!"
Leng Hongxiu gave Ye Yuan a glance and said coolly, "This person isn't a member of my Leng Family. If you want to bring away, I naturally have nothing to say. But, it can't be within my Leng Family's boundary! After this matter is settled, I'll chase him out of the Leng Family. At that time, whether you want to kill or dismember, it's up to you."
The moment Han Dongjun heard, he grinned and said, "Alright, I can wait! Brat, killing my Xiao-er, you'll know how severe the consequences are!"
Toward Leng Hongxiu's attitude, Ye Yuan was not too surprised. He just shrugged and said, "Just the likes of you can't make me stay!"
Han Dongjun seemed to have heard some hilarious joke and snickered as he said, "Shameless boasting fool, a measly Second Firmament Celestial Deity also wants to escape from this Han's hands! If I let you escape, I, this Han, absolutely won't show face in Thousand Soar Imperial Capital in the future!"
Han Dongjun was a half-step True God existence, his status in the Han Family rather high.
No matter how formidable Ye Yuan, this Second Firmament Celestial Deity, was, it was also impossible to escape from his hands.
Ye Yuan looked at him and said smilingly, "You have to remember what you said today. At that time, don't go back on your word."
He comprehended spatial shift. One thought, and he would be hundreds of thousands of miles away.
Even a True God powerhouse also had to expend a lot of effort to catch up to him, let alone a mere half-step True God.
By the side, Leng Hao was incomparably conflicted in his heart.
He really wanted to go up and kill those two with a palm. But this way, him silencing people to prevent divulgence of his secrets would be equivalent to being confirmed.
But not killing, once Leng Hongxiu searched the souls, wouldn't he know everything.
Right then, Leng Hongxiu spoke!
"Since you say that Hao-er entrapped Xu-er, then I'll carry out a soul-search on these two! If it's not like what you said, don't blame my Leng Family for not being courteous!" Leng Hongxiu looked at Ye Yuan and said coolly.
Ye Yuan did not speak, but in his heart, a hint of foreboding premonition arose.
It seemed like he somewhat underestimated the feelings between Leng Hongxiu and Leng Hao!
Right at this time, the divine soul power of a True God Realm released, rushing into those two people's sea of consciousness domineeringly.
"Puhwark!"
The two people virtually spewed out a blood arrow at the same time, then fell to the ground, already ceased breathing.
Ye Yuan's face changed. Was this … doing away with the witnesses?
Leng Hao's expression was incomparably nervous. His en
tire body was practically going to tremble already.
Would Leng Hongxiu announce his crimes?
Leng Hongxiu's closed eyes slowly opened, looked at Ye Yuan, and said indifferently, "Talking nonsense, ruining my Leng Family's reputation! Come, men! Take this boy down for me!"
Chapter 1851 - Confounding Black and White
Leng Hao's heart was practically jumping out of his throat.
Happiness came so suddenly!
No, wait, should say that his many years of hard work had not been in vain!
Foster Father he still kept his thoughtfulness in mind!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Several figures dashed straight onto the stage, surrounding Ye Yuan in the middle.
But Leng Xu's face changed and he said furiously, "Uncle, no matter how displeasing to the eye you find me, you also can't confound black and white, right? This matter has nothing to do with Ye Yuan. You let him go, I'll shoulder all of the charges!"
The current Leng Xu was really disappointed to the max with the Leng Family.
He had never wanted to fight for anything before. But the vortex of the mundane world insisted on dragging him in, stirring him up until he was reduced to pieces.
This feeling made him somewhat mentally and physically exhausted.
Because of Ye Yuan, he was able to stand on the stage dignified and openly today, defeat Leng Hao, and win back his own heart.
Because of Ye Yuan, he could walk out of decadence and find that former self.
Now, if Ye Yuan was dragged down because of this matter, he could not forgive himself no matter what.
However, Leng Hongxiu's face fell and he said, "Insolence! Your meaning is that I lied in front of so many people? You keep saying that Leng Hao is like this, like that, this is all your one-sided words! Then how do I know how many things you've done to let down the Leng Family? Back down!"
Leng Xu's complexion was like dead ash, but he refused to take a single step back. Blocking in front of Ye Yuan, he said stubbornly, "I'm not backing down!"
Leng Hongxiu's face turned dark and he said, "I announce that starting from today, Leng Xu's position of young patriarch is abolished! Leng Hao is the Leng Family's new young patriarch! All attack for me, take both of these two down for me!"
