Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens

At the top of the Yelin Imperial Capital, where the peaks of the Imperial Capital Mountains are located, there is a majestic and huge palace, backed by a cliff tens of thousands of feet, but directly in front of the hall overlooks the entire Yelin Imperial Capital.

At this time, there was a lifeless silence in the main hall at the top of the Emperor Mountain. Even though the sun was shining outside, there was still not a single ray of sunlight that could shine into the main hall.

In the center of the hall, there is a high platform. The somewhat exaggerated high platform seems to symbolize the pinnacle of power, and it also symbolizes the extremely lofty status of the person sitting on it.

"Why"

At this moment, a slight sigh broke the silence. The person who sighed was none other than a middle-aged man sitting on the high seat.

Even in the entire imperial capital, men in high positions can only be seen from a distance occasionally at some large-scale activities and ceremonies, but not many people in the entire imperial capital have seen their specific appearance.

This is a middle-aged man. His appearance is not handsome, but his angular face gives people a rough masculinity. Judging from the appearance, he is fifty-six points similar to Ye Meng, except that the lines on Ye Meng's face are softer. That is because Ye Meng's appearance is more similar to that of his mother, while the leader of the country, Ye Shan, closely resembles his father.

Although the king of the country, Ye Shan, has a very rough appearance, a large part of his character is similar to his mother. On the contrary, his younger brother Ye Meng's character is more like his father's resolute and decisive character.

Originally, from the perspective of personality and conduct, Ye Meng was more suitable to inherit the throne of the country. However, the tradition of the Ye Lin Empire is that the position of head of the country must be passed on to the eldest son. This has been continued for tens of thousands of years, and the brothers Ye Shan and Ye Meng are certainly no exception.

It's just a little "softness" in his character, or even a little bit cowardly to say the least. It is precisely because of some flaws in his character that after Hayama succeeded as the king, the entire empire gradually began to have problems. It has even reached the point where it is now unmanageable.

"Uncle, you are making things difficult for me. You know what happened back then better than anyone else. I already owe Ye Chan a lot to him, and now you ask me to treat him like this. I... How can I bear it?"

After a long sigh, the leader of the country, Ye Shan, was silent for a while again, and then slowly spoke. In the main hall, which had been deathly silent before, there was another voice at this moment.

"From the moment you inherit the throne of the country, I am not your uncle. I am just the elder of the Ye family. I will fully support you, but you can't rely on me. You are the country's leader, so you can only rely on yourself. "

The person who spoke turned out to be the Great Elder Ye Hongcheng. The Elder Council sent two people to follow Ye Mengdong to resolve the chaos in Xinshou County. The Great Elder Ye Hongcheng was considered to be the second-largest figure in the Ye family after Ye Shan in the imperial capital.

Regarding this nephew, Ye Hongcheng felt a little helpless. If it weren't for the rules inherited by the empire that could not be changed, he would not be willing to support him in a high position. Because that was not only a torture for Yeshan, but also a torture for those of them who worked hard to support him.

After giving Ye Shan a lesson first, the Great Elder Ye Hongcheng continued: "We all disagreed when you wanted to adopt Ye Chan into your lap, but you had your own way, so we had no choice but to let you go.

But you have to understand that bloodline inheritance cannot be careless. Even if it is also inherited by Ye's bloodline, I have to guarantee that your bloodline must inherit the country's leader, not Ye Chan, a wild species of unknown origin. "

"Uncle... Great Elder, why do you have to target Ye Chan? I have disqualified him as the successor. Isn't this enough? Do I have to kick him out of the imperial capital? Considering that he was once designated as the successor to the country's leader The fact is that as long as he leaves the imperial capital, he will definitely die."

Ye Shan was obviously a little angry. He could let Ye Chan and Ye Tao fight, and he would not help either of them. He even tended to favor Ye Tao in the past few years, but because of this, he felt that Ye Chan, his adopted son, felt Owe more.

The elder's face was extremely ugly, and he seemed to have reached the point where he couldn't bear it anymore, and suddenly said loudly: "Do you think I don't know that the reason why you had to let Ye Chan adopt you at your knees was because you fell in love with Ye Chan's mother.

But the origin of that woman is unknown, and the son in her belly is still not sure to be from my Ye family, but you still want to let him succeed the king. Such people must not stay in the imperial capital. Even if they die outside, there is nothing to be pitiful about. "

"Bang" slapped the armrest with a heavy palm, directly leaving a deep palm mark on the chair made of various rare metals. The strength of Hayama's mid-stage Yunen was also subconsciously released at this time.

It's just that the old man Ye Hongcheng below released his own cultivation without any concession. The great elder who already possessed the late-stage strength of Yu Nian just pushed back the aura released by Ye Shan.

Staring fiercely at the old man below, Ye Shan's face was extremely ugly. In terms of cultivation, he was far inferior to his opponent. In terms of status, even though he was the leader of the country, he still had to be wary of the elder of the Ye family.

Ye Shan, who was a little unwilling, said loudly: "Didn't you check Ye Chan's bloodline back then? There is no problem with his bloodline at all."

Hearing this, the great elder showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, and then he stamped his feet and said: "This is my fault. I didn't know at the time that there was a method of 'blood exchange' in the world, and even natural blood Everything can be changed. If you knew it in advance, even if you fight hard, you would never allow leafhoppers to adopt you. "

Hearing what the great elder said, there was a clear look of hesitation on Ye Shan's face. He lacked decision-making, but after listening to the great elder's words, he had no idea for a while.

"But if I let Ye Chan leave the imperial capital, can you promise me to save his life." After hesitation, Ye Shan finally made a concession.

The great elder's face was very ugly. The empire was already in turmoil, but he was still thinking about his "old love". This really made the old man so angry that he almost exploded on the spot.

However, looking at the lord of the country in front of him, the great elder felt helpless in his heart, because although the lord of the country in front of him was somewhat lacking in opinions, he also had such a stubborn temper that if he did something right, he would die. He bites and refuses to let go, as if he was determined to adopt Ye Chan as his adopted son, and no one can stop him. The current situation is somewhat similar to that of back then.

After thinking for a while, the Great Elder Ye Hongcheng suddenly said: "If you want Ye Chan to save his life, then he cannot continue to stay in the Ye Lin Empire. Our empire is also qualified to participate in the Ancient Wasteland Trial. It just so happens that the Ancient Wasteland Trial is because of If it is postponed due to special circumstances, let Ye Chan take part in the trial with a quota. "

"The Trial of the Ancient Wasteland? Don't you still want him to die? The Trial of the Ancient Wasteland is full of crises every year, especially this year's Trial of the Ancient Wasteland. I heard it is full of big crises. I don't agree. "

After hearing the great elder's proposal, the leader of the country, Ye Shan, immediately rejected it without even leaving any room for discussion.

After some planning in his mind, the great elder immediately put on a smile and continued: "Please rest assured, Lord, this ancient trial is not a forced entry. As long as he chooses to give up before the trial, we will spend more money later." For a small price, if Ye Chan is sent to a major sect, not only will his life be safe, but his future will definitely be good as well."

This time, Ye Shan's expression finally softened slightly. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said: "This arrangement is acceptable, so let's do what the great elder said."

The great elder held his fist respectfully, and a big stone finally fell to the ground in his heart. However, he was thinking to himself, 'When that leafhopper goes to the ancient wilderness, it will be up to him whether he will participate in the trial or not. If he dies there, it will be his fate. , for the eternal permanence of the Ye Lin Empire, he must not stay. ’

While thinking about it in his mind, the great elder continued: "If this is the case, then Ye Chan's identity jade medal must be taken back, and the guards around him need to be dismissed immediately. The Elders' Council will specially send strong men to protect him. To ensure his safety, we will send him to the ancient wilderness tomorrow.”

"Why are you so urgent? Didn't this just be decided..."

Before Ye Shan finished speaking, he found that the great elder was staring at him with stern eyes. Seeing the other party's appearance, Ye Shan couldn't help but sigh again, waved his hands in a dazed manner, and said: "Since we have decided, let's leave early. It’s the same if he leaves late, so just leave it to you, and I… won’t send him away.”

When Ye Shan spoke, a hint of peace and loss appeared on his face. It could be seen that it was not that he didn't care about Ye Chan, but because he cared so much that he couldn't bear to let him go.

Grand Elder Ye Hongcheng watched Ye Shan stand up, walk slowly from behind the high platform, and go straight to the back hall. Then he looked up to the sky and let out a big breath, and at the same time, there was a touch of joy that could not be concealed on his face.

For so many years, the Ye Lin Empire has been in a state of gradual decline, and the Great Elder has always wanted to work hard to change, but he has always been constrained by various constraints.

Now there is an army led by Ye Meng outside, which goes directly to Xingkari County to suppress and clean up. But this time the city itself takes action, and finally successfully solves the problem of leaf cicadas.

On the surface, dealing with Ye Chan and cleaning up Shinkari County have nothing to do with each other. However, those who know Ye Lin’s internal secrets know that this series of actions are actually targeting one organization, which is the same name as the Sacrifice Hall. The Soul Sacrifice Hall.

As long as the forces in Qingkari County are purged and Ye Chan is driven out of the imperial capital, it will be extremely easy to further suppress and weaken the Soul Sacrifice Hall.

When the great elder Ye Hongcheng walked out of the hall, his face was full of pride. Looking at the sun in the eastern sky, I felt an indescribable joy in my heart, as if the big stone that had been weighing on my heart for more than ten years had finally been removed.

"Hey, why is the light so bright today and the temperature feels much lower? What on earth is this..."

The Great Elder, who was slowly walking out of the hall and walking down the stairs, muttered to himself doubtfully and looked up into the distance. At this glance, his heart tightened suddenly, because he found that the large formation on the top of the Emperor Mountain had been opened at some point.
