Chapter: 3560

"Here, I make a promise to our ancestors! From today on, no one is allowed to trespass on my family's interests! No one is allowed to slight our ancestors! All members of the Ye family, from top to bottom, will prioritize our family's interests as the highest priority!"

"As the unworthy descendant Ye Chen, I swear an oath in front of all our ancestors today! I will do my best to make the Ye family the world's number one family and stand at the pinnacle of the world!"

After speaking, Ye Chen bent down and bowed his head towards the ancestral tomb. He then got up and stood beside Ye Zhongquan, who was also kneeling on the ground, facing the ancestors' mausoleum.

Ye Zhongquan opened his mouth again: "Our ancestors are above! Today, my family's prodigal son Ye Chen has finally returned home! From today on, all direct-line descendants will gather together and no longer have any scattered relatives. I've also fulfilled the promise I made to our ancestors last time!"

As he spoke, Ye Zhongquan continued: "Longen, Chengqi, ... Today, my child Ye Chen returns to his ancestral home and takes over as family head! And at the same time, I can finally give you two a satisfactory account! And I'm sure that you two will definitely be pleased with what's happening now!"

He paused for a moment before finishing: "Today is when he brings peace to the entire Ye family! In the future, he will undoubtedly lead the Ye family to even greater heights! I believe that you two are right now in another world, and you must be very pleased!"

Ye Chen stood up at this moment, directly approaching his parents' tomb, kneeling on the ground, and looking at the six large characters "Ye Longen" and "An Chengqi" on the tombstone. His eyes were already welling up with tears.

He whispered softly: "Father, Mother, my son has finally come back to visit you two in a bright and honest manner..."

The Ye family members heard these words and couldn't help but be puzzled. They weren't quite sure what Ye Chen meant by this statement. Had Ye Chen been here before?

At this moment, Ye Chen didn't pay attention to the Ye family's astonishment. He looked at the tombstone with his parents' youthful photos and said resolutely: "Father, Mother, from now on, I will inherit Dad's legacy, lead the Ye family to the pinnacle of the world! At the same time, I will find the killer who harmed you two, no matter who they are or what abilities or backgrounds they have. I will personally kill them and avenge you!"

After Ye Chen and his family members had briefly worshiped their ancestors and arrived at Bai Jinhuan Palace with Grandpa Ye Zhongquan, Little Aunt Ye Changxu, they were preparing to host their friends who would be arriving on Ye Ling Mountain today. Meanwhile, outsiders had already received the news from afar.

They learned that the Ye family had finally reached a compromise with Wanlong Hall, and no one suspected the authenticity of this message.

After all, these wealthy families, no matter how strong they were, couldn't possibly rival Wanlong Hall. This was the basic consensus among everyone.

Moreover, the head of Wanlong Hall had a deep-seated grudge against the Ye family. It was only natural that he wouldn't let up on them.

While those who escaped under cover of night, branches of the Ye family, were overjoyed in their hearts upon receiving this message.

Luckily, they reacted quickly and ran even faster, thereby dodging a bullet.

However, they not only felt relieved that they had dodged a bullet but also worried about what would happen to them in the future.

These peripheral clans are all dependent on the Ye family for survival, with many main income sources coming from the business assignments given by the Ye family.

After all, each of these peripheral clans has branched off step by step from the main household, just like how Ye Zhongquan became the head of the household and his younger brother Ye Zhongzhao had to strike out on his own.

The reason Ye Zhongquan compensated him was twofold: to make up for it and to maintain family ties. He would do everything in his power to give him more resources, one to prevent him from harboring thoughts of contending with the headship and two to preserve family relationships. At the same time, if there were any needs, these distant relatives could come to help.

The logic is similar to that of a prince ascending the throne, arranging other brothers to govern each region as vassals in ancient times.

To these peripheral clans, once they lost the Ye family as their main pillar, their future development would be severely impacted.

But before they even caught their breath, Wanlong Hall sent out another message saying: "All branches of the Ye family with names listed on the ancestral tablet, please report to Ye Ling Shan by 8am tomorrow. Those who fail to do so within the given time frame will be hunted down by Wanlong Hall globally!"

This news spread like wildfire through the land's powerful families, leaving them in a state of shock and astonishment.

Everyone thought that Wanlong Hall had conquered the Ye family and was satisfied, but it turns out they didn't let go of these peripheral branches either. JrNovels.com
