C106 Fishing People

Ye Zonglei knew he was in trouble this time, so he could only plead with Ye Shouzheng.

All of his previous arrogance had disappeared, replaced by the face of a slave. Now that he was asked to lick Ye Shouzheng's toes, he wouldn't get a single word of rejection.

"Back then, we all suspected that this matter had something to do with Tian, but we didn't expect it to be you, a vile creature. You wasted my love for you a few years ago!"

Ye Shouzheng was so angry that his body was trembling. He had never thought that the murderer behind this was actually Ye Zonglei.

Back then, the one Ye Shouzheng loved the most was Ye Zonglei. Ye Zonglei had extraordinary talent, which made Ye Shouzheng feel relieved about the future of Ye family. He didn't pay much attention to Ye Tian.

However, after all these incidents, Ye Shouzheng was very disappointed in Ye Zonglei. Until now, Ye Shouzheng had completely given up on this grandson of his.

"Tian, hand him over to the civilians. Let's attack him. No matter what, he will be suspected of covering up for us. It's better for us not to interfere..."

Ye Shouzheng waved his hand and stood up to leave. He did not want to take another look at Ye Zonglei.

Ye Tian brought Ye Zonglei to the busiest street in Luoshui City and explained what had happened in the past few days. The people of Spirit Feather Academy had also arrived after hearing the news.

"It's best to kill such a person. Let him pay with his life!"

"We have wronged this Ye Tian. It turns out that it wasn't him who did it!"

"Ye Zonglei doesn't look like a good person. Today, we have finally exposed him. Kill him!"

The public expressed their opinions one after another, which made Ye Zonglei very afraid. Now that his cultivation technique had been crippled and his body was injured, it was impossible for him to resist.

The principal of Spirit Feather Academy, Daoist Qianhe, and a group of teachers were watching from the side. They did not speak much about this matter and gave the right to choose to the people.

"Everyone, please be quiet!"

Just as Ye Tian was about to act according to the will of the people, a voice suddenly sounded from behind the crowd. Immediately, a guard opened up a path and let the owner of the voice come forward.

This person was the Luoshui City's City Lord, Murong Zaikuo!

When Ye Tian saw Murong Zaikuo, his eyebrows also raised up. He hadn't seen Murong Zaikuo in the previous incident. He had only been looking for traces. Everyone knew that Murong Zaikuo didn't want to deal with this matter.

Now that Murong Zaikuo had suddenly appeared, he did not want anyone to take care of Ye Zonglei. Due to his identity as the city lord, Ye Tian could only give up for the time being.

"Everyone, the crime of Ye Zonglei consuming the blood essence of life is unforgivable. However, it's not right for you all to organize a massacre on the street..."

"Now, I will take Ye Zonglei away and lock him up. I will ask him about the things that happened behind the scenes, and we will punish him accordingly. What do you think?"

Murong Zaikuo's voice was very gentle, and it made people feel no repulsion towards him. However, in his tone, it seemed like he couldn't be refused, and no one present dared to express their anger.

"This Ye Zonglei is already a devil. One more day, he will have a chance to escape. How can we let the people rest assured if we don't let him die in front of everyone?"

At this moment, Ye Tian turned his head to look at Murong Zaikuo and said. He didn't have the slightest bit of hesitation because of Murong Zaikuo's previous tone.

The fact that Murong Zaikuo had appeared here indicated that he might have some connection with this matter. Who knew what would happen in the end?

"Ye Tian, you have done well this time. You have made great contributions to all of us. From today onwards, Ye Tian will be one of our guards!"

Murong Zaikuo did not answer Ye Tian's question. Instead, he gave Ye Tian a position in the city.

One should know that the guards of the city lord had great power. They could even do more things in the city. No one could stop them.

In the eyes of outsiders, a disciple of a family and a member of the guards of the city lord had made the Ye family even more prosperous.

However, Ye Tian sneered in his heart. He knew that this was the soft knife used by Murong Zaikuo to kill people, and it wouldn't be stained with blood.

By giving him such a small position, he could take the opportunity to take Ye Zonglei away. Moreover, if this position was asked to do something he didn't want to do later on, Ye Tian wouldn't have a choice.2

Such a method was like killing two birds with one stone. It also made Ye Tian understand that the hatred between him and Murong Zaikuo had reached a point where they would never rest until one of them died.

"I am young and can't accept such a position. You should give this position to someone who needs it..."

Ye Tian slightly bowed. His attitude was the same as Murong Zaikuo's. There was no flaw in his attitude.

"Good, good, good. What a heroic young man. Then, I will wait for a few years. I will personally go to the Ye family to discuss this matter!"

Murong Zaikuo's attitude towards Ye Tian made everyone present speechless. They were all envious of Ye Tian, who had earned the appreciation of the City Lord at such a young age.

Before Ye Tian could say anything, Murong Zaikuo suddenly approached him. He bent down and whispered into Ye Tian's ear.

"That's enough. As the City Lord, what I want to do is not something you can compare with. If you want to live longer, do you know what to do?"

Murong Zaikuo revealed his identity. Although he was smiling, Ye Tian could hear the coldness in his voice.

Ye Tian now knew what Murong Zaikuo meant. He smiled.

"City Lord, please do as you wish. I will have to trouble you with this matter!"

After saying that, Ye Tian jumped down from the stage. No matter what the people below the stage asked, Ye Tian did not answer.

He went straight away, leaving Murong Zaikuo on the stage to look at Ye Tian's back. The corner of his mouth revealed a profound smile.

When he returned home, after Ye Chengfeng found out about this matter, he blamed Ye Tian for not being careful enough. Although Ye Zonglei was Ye Chengfeng's nephew, Ye Zonglei's crime had long drawn a clear line between Ye Chengfeng and him.

"Tian, don't you know what kind of relationship Murong Zaikuo has with Ye family? Now that Murong Zaikuo has brought Ye Zonglei back, it means that he wants to restore Ye Zonglei's strength!"

Ye Chengfeng was very nervous. When he heard about Ye Zonglei's transformation, he felt a chill run down his spine.

Although the Ye family had the upper hand, he couldn't afford to be careless in these matters. If he wasn't careful, it would cause the Ye family to repeat the same mistake.

Furthermore, if Ye Zonglei really recovered, it would be another disaster for the people of Luoshui City.

"Father, don't worry. Even if Ye Zonglei is rescued by the Great Luo Divine Immortal, he will only be a cripple. That cultivation technique of his will will only continue to be cultivated in his next life!"

Ye Tian casually waved his hand. He wasn't worried that Murong Zaikuo would stir up a huge storm after saving Ye Zonglei.

Ye Tian had destroyed the cultivation technique on Ye Zonglei's body along with all the qi points on his body. For the rest of his life, Ye Zonglei could only live like an ordinary person.

He had dealt with Murong Zaikuo for a while just to prevent Murong Zaikuo from suspecting him. Now that he had returned home, he naturally could say what he wanted to say.

When he heard Ye Tian's explanation, Ye Chengfeng was surprised at first, but then he showed a gratified expression. Ye Tian's actions were watertight, which made him feel much more at ease!

"Alright, Father, I won't say so much for now. I still have to go to the academy. This time, the principal said that he will give me some rewards!"
