Within the Ye Family palace.
Just as Ye Ling and the rest stepped into the hall, they saw that the expression of Leng Xingyu, who was seated down, changed drastically. He quickly stood up and stood beside the hall with a trembling face.
Leng Xingyu was afraid of the current Ye Ling, so much so that his scalp would go numb. The grudge between him and Ye Ling, was caused by Leng Ruyan and the glazed calyx.
He had been fighting with Ye Ling for so long, yet he had never won. On the contrary, he had witnessed Ye Ling's rise until his ancestor, Leng Wushuang, appeared.
But now, the Leng Family was too weak, the Leng Family's Ancestor, Leng Wushuang, had suddenly disappeared from the Immortal World. At first, Leng Xingyu suspected that the Patriarch was trapped or died in the Immortal World Ruins.
However, when he met Zhan Tianxing by accident, he knew that his clan's patriarch, Leng Wushuang, was not dead. Because the patriarch had placed his life on Leng Ruyan, and Ye Ling had never forgotten about him.
Therefore, Leng Xingyu believed that his clan's ancestor Leng Wushuang would most likely fall into Ye Ling's hands, it was just that he wouldn't have the power to confirm everything that he had guessed.
Right now, with the North Sea in a panic, the Northern Profound Continent was in a precarious situation. Furthermore, the Leng Family's power was also limited, so he could only put his grudge with Ye Ling on the side. Right now, he could only seek the Ye Family to ignore the past grudges and help the Leng Family out of this difficult situation.
Ye Ling and Ye Xiong stepped into the hall, but Ye Tianqiong, who was sitting on top of the hall, had a big smile on his face. He anxiously got down from the hall and walked towards Ye Xiong, and said, ”Ancestor, Ye Ling, you two are finally back.”
Hearing Ye Tianqiong's tone, Ye Ling turned his head and looked towards Leng Xingyu, who was trembling in fear. He was a little curious to see Leng Xingyu appear at the Ye Family household.
However, nodded towards him with a smile, but Ye Ling did not ask, and instead cupped his fists in greeting, then retracted his gaze and looked at his grandfather.
”What happened?”
Ye Xiong frowned, he could also tell that Ye Tianqiong had an important matter at hand, hence he asked directly.
”Jiu Li should be the one to tell this to you right?” Ye Tianqiong said helplessly as he turned to look at Jiu Li.
”Oh?” Following Ye Tianqiong's gaze, he looked towards Jiu Li, and then directly stepped onto the roof of the hall and sat down.
The Sword Saint, Nie Hun and Xia Huai all sat at the side of the hall, while the atmosphere within the hall was a bit heavy. Ye Ling stood at the side of the hall, and looked at Leng Xingyu with a smile that was not a smile.
Facing Ye Ling's unfriendly gaze, Leng Xingyu naturally felt unwell, and now that the Ye Family had appeared, he was the only one who looked like an outsider.
”Jiu Li, have you come to my Ye Family this time for Ye Ling or something else?” Ye Xiong opened his mouth and asked Jiu Li in a deep voice.
Jiu Li stood up, cupped his fists and bowed to Ye Xiong, then said: ”Today, the Ye Family came for official business, because the Northern Profound Continent that is controlled by the Leng Family, suddenly suffered from the North Sea Goblin Tribe's unbridled command, which spread across the ocean quickly, and also had the intention of annexing the Northern Profound Continent. That's why he requested for help from my Sky Dragon Sect. It's just that Sky Dragon Sect had just experienced a disaster and the number of casualties among her disciples was not small. That's why she thought of the Ye Family … ”
After saying that, Jiu Li paused, and then turned to look at Leng Xingyu who was standing there.
Leng Xingyu saw that Jiu Li was looking at him and his old face looked a little unnatural. After hesitating for a moment, he forced himself to step forward and cupped his fists as he bowed towards Ye Xiong.
”Leng Family Patriarch Leng Xingyu pays respects to the Ye Family Patriarch!”
Leng Xingyu was extremely nervous. Whether he could successfully get the Ye Family's help this time was related to the life and death of his Leng Family, so he did not dare to offend the Ye Family again.
”When did your Leng Family fall to such a state?”
”It's just a small Northern Sea, if your Leng Family can't deal with it, how can you become the person in charge of it? What right do you have to stand on equal footing with my Ye Family? ”
Ye Xiong scrunched his eyebrows. After knowing that the Leng Family was in trouble, he actually mocked Leng Xingyu on purpose, ridiculing the current Leng Family to such an extent.
As one of the Four Great Clans, to think he would have the cheek to seek help from an outsider after getting himself into such a predicament.
Being humiliated by Ye Xiong, even Leng Xingyu had to endure the anger in his heart. At this moment, how could he have the qualifications to refute, in his heart, he hated the Ye Family to the bones.
If not for the loss of the Leng Family's glazed calyx, causing the ancestor of the Leng Family to be unable to recover his true body and unable to step into the peak of the realm, how could the Leng Family be so weak?
It was laughable that Ye Xiong was actually ridiculing their Leng Family. He, Leng Xingyu, had a stomach full of anger, but was unable to vent it out.
”The Patriarch is right.”
”It is I who humiliated the reputation of the Leng Family, causing the Ye Family to be implicated.”
”Now that my Leng Family ancestor suddenly disappeared, I do not know if he is alive or dead, but Leng Family is facing the invasion of the North Sea, it is difficult for my Leng Family to resist, I request the Ye Family's patriarch, on account of us being from the Four Great Families, to let go of his past grudges and help my Leng Family through this crisis!”
When Leng Xingyu said these words, his heart was filled with hatred, and his unfriendly eyes kept staring at Ye Ling, who was in the distance.
Facing Leng Xingyu's cold stare, Ye Ling did not care at all. He was curious about what had happened in the North Sea, why did the North Sea suddenly riot actually want to swallow the Northern Profound Continent?
Even Ye Xiong, who was standing above the hall, was not moved when he heard how pitiful Leng Xingyu's words were. He knew that the Ye Family and the Leng Family had deep grudges, so he only wanted to see if Ye Ling could ignore the past.
The Sword Saint and Nie Hun had strange expressions. It was true that they were curious about the sudden riots in the North Sea, but the most important thing right now was how to settle this issue.
When Jiu Li saw Ye Xiong turn to look at Ye Ling, he also turned to look at Ye Ling, because he knew that Ye Ling was the one who had decided this crucial point.
”Ye Ling, do you think we should help or not?” Ye Xiong said, and gave the decision to Ye Ling.
