Chapter: 3500

Even Ye Lao Yezi, Ye Chen's father, thought Ye Chen was pretending too much.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "Even Su Zhixin's mother had come in person to plead for mercy on your behalf, and you're not even giving her any positive feedback? Not only that, but you're also putting on airs. If someone got angry and walked away, there wouldn't be a single tear left!"

Ye Hao was about to collapse, whispering to his father Ye Changyun: "Dad! This guy is really the old pretender king... Wan Dragon Hall is already at our doorstep, Su Zhixin had come to help, and he's still able to say such words... What kind of pretentiousness is this? It's as if he's trying to outdo everyone else in the world..."

Ye Changyun scowled: "What nonsense! He's just being a faceless person who doesn't know how to elevate himself!"

Behind Ye Changyun, there was a small boy of about 14 or 15 years old. He was Ye Hao's younger brother, named Ye Fei. At this moment, he stared with his eyes wide open and said: "This... This is clearly what we often say in school, 'The Pretender King, the King of Kings'... Even if it means dying, you have to pretend until the end. Isn't that remarkable?"

Ye Changyun slapped him on the back of the head and yelled: "You're always like this, pretending to be someone else! You're studying at the best Iton Public School, but what kind of nonsense are you learning?"

Ye Fei clutched his head, not daring to speak up.

At this moment, other members of Ye's family also felt that Ye Changyun was being too presumptuous and even feared that Du Huiqing would get angry and leave in a huff.

However, Du Huiqing didn't get angry at all; instead, she truly let her guard down.

She and Su Zhifu both knew that Ye Changyun was extremely powerful, but they didn't know if he could take on the Million-Slaying Army and the Dragon Palace.

But seeing Ye Changyun so confident now, they all believed this wasn't just Ye Changyun's arrogance, but rather he had a firm grasp of the situation.

Ye Changyun wasn't intentionally rejecting Du Huiqing's good intentions, nor was he trying to make her uneasy.

He said that because he truly feared that Du Huiqing would turn around and ask for mercy on behalf of the Million-Slaying Army.

After all, the Million-Slaying Army is the only bloodline left by Su Shoudao, and Wan Liangcheng's wife had passed away; if Ye Changyun were to really kill the Million-Slaying Army, who knows if Du Huiqing wouldn't feel sympathetic and ask for mercy on his behalf?

If she did, the nature of this situation would completely change - what was originally meant to help Ye Changyun ended up helping his opponent instead, which would be very awkward when that happens.

So Ye Changyun felt he had to speak up ahead of time; as long as Du Huiqing doesn't ask for mercy on behalf of anyone else, it's fine.

Du Huiqing listened to this and immediately understood that Ye Changyun didn't really care about Wan Liangcheng at all, while she herself was going to plead for mercy on his behalf - it was really a bit beneath him.

Then Du Huiqing hastily said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ye, I was careless."

Ye Changyun quickly said, "Du Auntie, I don't mean anything else, just hope you can remain neutral, okay?"

Du Huiqing nodded slightly: "Alright, Mr. Ye, I'll remember!"

Ye Changyuan hurriedly took a step forward and began to say, "Hai Qing! The young master is full of vigor and doesn't want to surrender, but if that Wan Liangcheng really comes after us, you have to say some nice words to spare our lives!"

This speech by Ye Changyuan was basically expressing the collective sentiments of other members of the Ye family.

Du Huiqing listened but just smiled faintly and said, "Big Brother, you should trust Mr. Ye a bit more, since he's already said this, I believe he absolutely has it under control."

Ye Changyuan frowned with concern: "Hey! He's lacking understanding about the Dragon Hall, otherwise he would never say such words!"

Ye Changyun remained silent, staring fixedly at the mountain below. JrNovels.com
