Rebirth of the Strongest Empress
Chapter 54
Panda Novel
There was no emotion on the Great Elder’s face. Narrowing his eyes slightly, he looked past Ye Ling and straight at the Second Elder. “Last night, four assassins barged into the Ye residence in an attempt to kill me and the family master. Do you know about this, Second Elder?”
The Great Elder’s question shocked Ye Ling.
The Second Elder, who was completely unaware, frowned slightly. He looked worriedly at Ye Ling, and after verifying that Ye Ling was not injured, he said in a low voice, “I have been in seclusion for many days and do not know about this incident. There are people in Lin Town who actually dare to offend the Ye family?”
“Don’t know about this incident?” The Great Elder suddenly scoffed. “In the whole Ye family, there are only three people who can exercise control: you, the family master, and I. If the family master and I died, and given that the Young Lady is still too young, who do you think… will be able to gain power and exercise control in the Ye family?”
Though the Great Elder was asking, everyone knew what he was implying in his words.
If the Great Elder and Ye Ling died, the position of power in the Ye family would naturally fall into the hands of the Second Elder.
The Second Elder’s expression darkened. “Great Elder, what do you mean by that?”
“Second Elder, the Great Elder’s meaning is very obvious. A clever person like you would surely understand?” Ye Xun looked at the Second Elder helplessly with a frown and continued. “Second Elder, do you really not understand or are you acting like you don’t? The Ye family has always treated you fairly, and you hold the respectable position of an Elder. My father had such deep respect for you, but it turns out that you are too greedy. Not only are you dissatisfied with the position as an Elder, but you even want to kill others to steal their power!”
The Second Elder’s eyes sharpened as he immediately looked at Ye Xun, who was full of slander.
“I have always had a clear conscience and have never once done anything to harm the Ye family. Ye Xun, how dare you speak so recklessly and accuse me?!”
Ye Xun was scared by the Second Elder’s glare. Purposefully putting on a wronged expression, she hid behind Duan Tianrao as she tugged on Duan Tianrao’s sleeves with tears dancing in her eyes. “Darling Duan… I’m scared.”
Duan Tianrao immediately raised his hand and patted Ye Xun’s tiny hands comfortingly. Then, he looked at the Second Elder and said, “Second Elder, I used to address you as the Second Elder of the Ye family and have always respected your abilities, but you are a man and should take responsibility like one. Everyone in Lin Town knows that something happened in the Ye family yesterday. With both Uncle Ye and the Great Elder targeted for assassination, who would dare to strike at the Ye family if there were no benefits to gain? Only you would vainly attempt to steal the family master position and do such a monstrous thing.”
The Second Elder’s expression darkened completely. He just ended his seclusion and was completely unaware of everything that happened outside. Never had he expected that the moment he ended his seclusion, he was accused of committing such a serious crime.
In addition, looking at the intimate gestures between Ye Xun and Duan Tianrao, the Second Elder’s eyes darkened a few shades instantly.
Duan Tianrao was clearly Ye Qingtang’s fiancée, but now, he was actually having an affair with Ye Xun, the adopted daughter of the Ye family!
The Second Elder was wholeheartedly besotted with martial arts and did not marry or have kids. He had long treated Ye Qingtang as his own granddaughter. As he looked at the two people in front of him, one who even accused him, anger filled him, and he narrowed his eyes at them.
Suddenly, a powerful aura dissipated from him, and in an instant, the few guards who locked his arms were thrown out by the force.
“Ignorant kid, how dare you to slander me!” the Second Elder remarked coldly.
