Opening: Me, I become stronger when I am beaten!

With the support of the city lord, the several Patriarchs naturally returned happily.

If the Ye family can be successfully destroyed, it seems that Zhao Tianhong has gained the greatest benefit, and can annex the Ye family's heritage.

But in the long run, the other big families are more profitable.

After all, it is impossible for the Ye family to gather all the resources in the family's important place, there are still some small warehouses in private, and it will take a lot of time to search for all of them.

And these are basically things between several big families.

Moreover, the annexation of the Ye family's market and industry is very beneficial to the expansion of the strength of the other major families.

Soon, Zhao Tianhong had mobilized thousands of city defense troops, ready to attack the Ye family.

The news from the city lord's mansion quickly reached the Ye family.

After Patriarch Ye Peng heard the news, his expression suddenly changed.

You must know where their Ye family is Zhao Tianhong's opponent. Although it looks like several big families occupy each side in this Zuoyi City, in fact, all of them are controlled by the city lord.

Immediately, he summoned the senior members of the family to gather in the meeting hall to discuss the matter together.

On this day, Ye Chen just woke up and used some high-grade pills he got from Wei Hong. At this time, his realm has been promoted to the Ninth Heaven of Warriors.

He has reached the peak of the martial artist, and is only one step away from the martial artist.

At present, it is just around the corner to break through to the Dao Martial Master level. For other monks, it may take several years to prepare, but it is easy for Ye Chen.

He also discovered that although he can quickly gain energy value under the attack of a strong person, as the realm rises, the speed of energy value acquisition also slows down.

As for Zuoyi City, there are not many martial arts masters, so it is destined that he cannot completely rely on fighting to level up.

Just as he pushed open the door and stretched his waist, he saw a disciple walking up.

"Third Young Master, the Patriarch invited you to the meeting hall, saying that there is something important to do."

Ye Chen nodded slightly, and walked over slowly.

When they came to the meeting hall, several elders were talking with each other, with worried expressions on their faces.

This time when the family meeting is held, someone will invite Ye Chen, which indeed proves that his status in the family has risen to a new height.

After all, when he was in the third level of the warrior, he could take the three moves of the warrior-level powerhouse without any damage, but Ye Chen was not proud of it, on the contrary, his strength improved rapidly.

Up to now, it is already the peak realm of warriors, and it has to be impressive.

At the beginning of the warrior, he had the strength to fight against the warrior class, but now he has reached the peak of the warrior, which makes people have to look at him with admiration.

Even faintly, Ye Chen's status is already higher than that of several elders in the family, to the point where everyone is in awe.

Ye Huiyao did not come to the conference hall this time, probably arranged by Ye Peng. The two had some personal grievances, and they were worried that there would be unhappiness at the meeting.

Ye Chen stepped into the meeting hall and sat on the chair at the end, but he looked more unusual than anyone else.

"Already the Ninth Heaven of Warriors? The third son is really the best among the younger generation!" The second elder said a polite word.

As soon as Ye Chen entered the door, several elders had already sensed it. After all, they were all martial artists, and they were more sensitive to the aura of monks, so they could see the state immediately.

"Where is it, the second elder praises it, and thank you for your cultivation in the past." Ye Chen smiled lightly.

As soon as these words came out, several elders were taken aback for a moment, and then laughed along with them.

Where did they usually cultivate Ye Chen? Some even embezzled his resources and suppressed him.

Right now, I just hope that Ye Chen is not the kind of person who must take revenge. In the future, his strength will surpass them, and he won't turn around and settle accounts with them one by one.

"Okay, now that everyone has come, what do you think about the city lord's action to suppress my Ye family?" Ye Peng said.

He sat on the first seat and glanced around at everyone, first of all he asked for everyone's opinions.

And in the end, he just needs to express his opinion, which is the rule in the Ye family most of the time.

"At this moment, from the perspective of this old man, we should find someone to bring a big gift as soon as possible, and go to Zhao Tianhong to make peace. We shouldn't fight Zhao Tianhong, otherwise the Ye family's strength will be greatly damaged regardless of the end!" The great elder said.

Several other people also nodded one after another. This method is relatively safe. If Zhao Tianhong is willing to regress, no matter how much resources are spent, it will be worth it.

If a fight really broke out, the Ye family might not be able to handle it at all, and they would be exterminated in a short time.

Even if they really survived, their strength would be greatly reduced, and it would be difficult to withstand the combined attack of several big families.

"I've heard that this time the other families spent a lot of money to hire Zhao Tianhong. I'm afraid that even if the Ye family's wealth is exhausted, the resources we give are not as good as [-]% of theirs. The Ye family will be destroyed sooner or later." matters." The second elder said suddenly.

"Then what do you say?"

Everyone cast their eyes on the second elder, wanting to see what he could do.

"There is only one way, and that is to surrender. With our strength, Zhao Tianhong will naturally not treat us badly." The second elder said.

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

It's too spineless to want to criticize, but the current situation is really forcing them, but they can't say such a thing.

"Shut up! Shameless old thief." Ye Chen cursed suddenly, "Surrender is not in my dictionary. You must have a backbone, and you would rather stand dead than live on your knees."

Being scolded like this, the Second Elder's face instantly became extremely gloomy.

But Ye Chen didn't give him a chance to speak.

He continued: "What has been handed down by the ancestors of the Ye family can stand upright in Zuoyi City today, that is the merit of the ancestors. If the Ye family falls outside the hands, how can we be worthy of our ancestors?"

"Whoever dares to take advantage of the Ye family, we will fight him to the end!"

"Blood battle to the end!"

"Blood battle to the end!"

Encouraged by Ye Chen at this time, some core disciples present were already full of enthusiasm and completely aroused their fighting spirit.

Ye Chen looked at the second elder coldly, and said, "Our Ye family has never needed someone without backbone. From now on, you will no longer be the second elder of the Ye family."

The second elder looked at Ye Peng, wanting to see how he would deal with it, but Ye Peng didn't make any statement, as if he had already acquiesced.

Facing the disgusting eyes of many disciples, the second elder didn't have any face to stay any longer, and just shook his sleeves and left.

Next, he went to the City Lord's Mansion.

"Report! The second elder of the Ye family came to pay a visit."

Zhao Tianhong froze for a moment, could it be that someone betrayed him so soon, "Let him in."
