Realms In The Firmament

Chapter 1089: Have to Let It Out

Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy

Ye Liangchen's father saw what his son did, and he wasn't happy about it. In fact, he was so angry that his nose was twisted. He walked over, beat Ye Liangchen up really hard, and scolded, "You wasted trash! Can't you do something normal… Are you going to exasperate me to death with all these useless feminine things…"

Ye Liangchen made waves of exclamation that shocked the world…

…

Ye Xiao went back to the room as his father told him. He looked pretty calm and indifferent as he raised up the teacup of tea that was still warm and drank the tea up.

Han Bingxue twisted his lips and asked, "How was it? Did you feel good?"

"Just so-so." Ye Xiao sighed. "I didn't want to pretend. There was no other way to do it."

Han Bingxue thought for a while and nodded to agree. "That's true! Only to finish it swiftly can get it done once and for all."

"Let them rebuild their leadership on their own. You and me, we better have a drink." Ye Xiao sighed. "In fact, I didn't feel peaceful and calm as I expected during the massacre."

Han Bingxue nodded.

Ye Xiao had admitted to being a member of Ye Clan, so how could he feel nothing after killing over a hundred of his own people?

However, it was something he had to do, though he didn't really want to.

Ye Shuqing gradually woke up. The first thing he did when he woke up was to spit out a mouthful of blood.

He had been enduring those men for many years because he wanted the clan to rise. Even though he and his family had been suffering the insults, he never fought back. In his mind, only the rise of the clan was essential to everybody…

However, he never thought that his grandson would kill all of the opponents in the clan when he met those people for the first time after he returned!

It was a wild slaughter! He literally killed every one of them without mercy!

Gramp Ye thought about that bloody scene in his sight before he passed out, and he felt difficult to breathe. [If we have to do this, I would have done it long ago! Why would I wait till the present? I would have fought against them even without forefather's support. I at least wouldn't need to endure their insults all these years. But… we are in the same clan. We are the same name. Do we really have to be so ruthless?]

However, after looking around the others, hearing their conversations, he slowly came to enlightenment. [I… maybe… I was wrong from the beginning!]

"Only to strike it in this thundering way can we firmly stand on the floor in the clan and have the right to let out our voice!" It was a junior brother of Gramp Ye talking.

"That's right. The foolish idea of stepping back again and again weakly, hoping they would spare us some certain rights would only make us fall to the bottom of desperation!" The man who said these was Ye Liangchen's father, Ye Nantian's cousin.

"True. Qing-Yun Realm is a world for the strong, not for the weak. Not only outside the clan, but also among the clans, even inside a clan, it is always the natural law!"

"Family bond… What is the family bond? Haven't we kept talking about the family bond to them all these years? What has been brought to us? They kept forcing us to the corner of nowhere!"

"It's right to kill them!"

"They deserved it!"

…

What Gramp Ye heard were all angry voices.

He was such an experienced man. He knew that these people who had been supporting him for many years were actually disappointed by his self-surrender.

"Guys, don't you have any different opinions about what happened today? Any different views?" Gramp Ye was lost. He actually asked a question that shouldn't be mentioned, a question a man like him should never ask.

"Different opinions? Different views?" The others all felt surprised. "No. We may feel a little grieved, but if we have to do it again, we would still applaud for it! To be honest, we never have that strength to do it. Otherwise, we would have done it long ago!"

"That's right!"

"Correct! Same here!"

"We have the same point!"

"Was I always wrong to step back to them, bearing their insults? Was it just my own dream to hope that they would become kind and united to us…" Gramp Ye murmured, "All the decisions I made, I made them for the clan. Was I wrong?"

"You were wrong!" An old man stood up. He was Ye Shuqing's closest blood-related brother, who looked eighty percent alike to Ye Shuqing, Ye Shuzhan.

"Second Brother, even you think so?" Ye Shuqing looked at his closest brother and couldn't believe what he just heard.

"Brother, I have some words that I have buried deep in my heart. I don't think I can hide it anymore. Today, I would like to seize the chance to let it out." Ye Shuzhan took a deep breath and said, "Please forgive me if I offend you."

"Go ahead," Gramp Ye said in a daze.

Ye Shuzhan took a deep breath. His face gradually turned red.

Finally, he started talking…

As he spoke, he had been holding it in the heart for too many years. He couldn't bear it anymore. As he started, his words were let out like a river rolling on in the waves! Apparently, he was extremely emotional at the moment.

"Brother, why do you think we chose to support you? We chose you, not only because… you are nice, honest, honorable, profound, and powerful… but also something else. At least these are not all…"

Ye Shuzhan loudly said, "The main reason why we chose you is that we wanted our lives to become better and better under your lead!

"We wanted to be at least respected in this clan, though we couldn't hope for a position next to you. We wanted our voice to be respected!

"We wanted the opportunity to grow our rights and profits gradually!

"All in all, as a bunch of people who couldn't achieve great success on our own, why do you think we want to follow somebody? Why wouldn't we just enjoy our days? Why would we put ourselves under constraint?

"Because we wanted to do something that we can't succeed on our own, under the wise command of a mighty person!

"Brother, I know you don't like what I am saying. I know I may hurt you by saying it out." Ye Shuzhan stood straight up and spoke loudly, "I know you would consider my words as too realistic and snobbish, maybe cold-blooded.

"However, no matter what we wish for, it all depends on our power!

"Humanity, loyalty, you name it. These only can be upheld by strong power!"
