Chapter 1648

~8 min read 1,518 words

These three conditions of Wan Pojun could be called unheard of for anyone!

He wanted the Ye family's ancestral grave, he wanted to keep the coffins of Ye Changying and his wife, he wanted the Ye family members to wear mourning clothes to bury his parents, and he wanted half of the Ye family's assets!

It was said to be three conditions, but in reality, it was four.

And any one of these four conditions was a challenge to the Ye family's limit, and it was putting the Ye family's face on the ground and stomping on it hard with their feet.

And these four conditions, stacked together, were not only putting the Ye family's face on the ground to stomp on, but also stomping on it while wearing spiked shoes, while simultaneously spitting on it a few times, and then cutting off the Ye family members' hands and feet, turning the Ye family members into human sticks.

Hearing this, Ye Zhongquan was so angry that he was about to have a heart attack!

His inner anger had overcome his fear, so he roared uncontrollably: "Your Palace Master is truly bullying people too much!!!"

"Back then, the Wan Liancheng couple both committed suicide; it had nothing to do with our Ye family! I am willing to give ten billion, which is already doing my utmost!!!"

"But your Palace Master can actually propose so many despicable and shameless demands; this is unbearable!!!"

Lu Haotian chuckled, took out another fine Cuban cigar, lit it, took a deep puff, and blew it directly into Ye Zhongquan's face, saying coldly: "Old thing, it doesn't matter if you don't accept it. Our Palace Master had long anticipated that you definitely wouldn't shed tears until you saw the coffins!"

Having said that, he turned around, pointed at these coffins behind him, and sneered: "So our Palace Master had me bring these coffins over for you to see clearly, to let you know that these coffins are all prepared for you!"

Ye Zhongquan said coldly: "I don't believe you can kill all the Ye family members! This is not the Middle East or Africa! It is not a place for you to act wildly!"

Lu Haotian said disdainfully: "Our Palace Master is of course clear about this point. And our Palace Master returned to Yanjing this time, besides seeking revenge on your Ye family, he also wants to announce to all the families in Yanjing that Wan Liancheng's son has officially returned. So under these circumstances, our Palace Master will of course abide by the law even more..."

Speaking of this, Lu Haotian smiled insidiously and added: "However, our Palace Master also said that if your family doesn't agree to his conditions, he won't do anything to you Ye family members. It's just that, in the future, you Ye family members will definitely die unnatural deaths one after another!"

"And the causes of death might be diverse and varied!"

"Some people might die in car accidents, some might die in fires, others might die by drowning or suicide, and maybe someone will even be bitten to death by dozens of dogs..."

"However, for you, every method of death is like opening a blind box. Whatever method each person gets depends entirely on your own luck."

These words from Lu Haotian made every Ye family member, except for Ye Chen, feel like they had needles on their backs.

This feeling was as if the opponent's sharp knife was already pressed against their hearts, ready to be stabbed in at any moment.

Hearing this, Ye Zhongquan's heart turned to ash.

He had already understood Wan Pojun's plan.

Since Wan Pojun wanted to return openly and aboveboard, he naturally wouldn't dare to kill the Ye family members with great fanfare.

Although he couldn't kill them openly, assassination was much easier.

The Wanlong Palace itself was the world's top mercenary organization, with countless experts under its command.

If these experts all came to assassinate the Ye family members, then it was absolutely impossible for any of the Ye family members to survive.

He even felt that even Ye Chen probably couldn't withstand such terrifyingly powerful experts.

If the Ye family couldn't satisfy Wan Pojun's demands, Wan Pojun would definitely launch indiscriminate assassinations against the Ye family members.

And he also believed that Wan Pojun had waited twenty years for this day, and he definitely wasn't just talking.

However, the conditions given by Wan Pojun were indeed too harsh.

This was not a choice between life and death; this was a choice between lingering on in a desperate situation and burning calmly.

If they accepted Wan Pojun's conditions, the Ye family members could indeed save their lives.

However, all the dignity of the Ye family would cease to exist.

And as long as the Ye family members were still alive, they would forever be the laughingstock of others, and even after they died, they would be pointed at by others.

Consequently, he fell into the most difficult choice of his life.

Suddenly, he didn't know what to do.

And the Ye family members behind him were also harboring their own ulterior motives at this time.

For the vast majority of the Ye family members, they didn't have any real backbone; all they had was the sense of superiority that had always existed deep in their hearts, set off by money and status.

Therefore, at this moment of facing the threat of death, they just wanted to survive.

As long as they could survive, whether they lost face or not was not important.

If it really didn't work, they would just take the remaining assets and leave China, go to a place where no one knew them, and live out the rest of their lives peacefully.

This would still be better than dying an unknown death under the assassination of the Wanlong Palace.

However, Ye Zhongquan could not accept such conditions.

Just at this moment, Lu Haotian looked at Ye Zhongquan and questioned him coldly: "Old thing, how have you considered it? Do you agree or refuse our Palace Master's conditions?!"

Bearing immense pressure, Ye Zhongquan slowly opened his mouth and said: "Young man, please report back to your Palace Master. These conditions are truly too harsh for our Ye family. Even if I were truly willing to give up Mount Ye Ling to him, there are so many coffins of Ye ancestors on Mount Ye Ling that it would take some time to properly relocate them..."

As he spoke, Ye Zhongquan paused slightly and said earnestly: "Moreover, Ye Changying was my son. As a father, I cannot leave my son's coffin to others. What's more, I had already let him down once when he was alive; now that he is dead, I cannot let him down again!"

Hearing these words from the old master, Ye Chen took an extra look at Ye Zhongquan.

It had to be admitted that Ye Zhongquan daring to say such words at this time made Ye Chen surprised, and at the same time, it changed his attitude toward him somewhat.

At this time, Ye Zhongquan continued: "Also, to express our family's apologies to the Wan family, I am willing to lead the Ye family members to pay respects after the coffins of the Wan Liancheng couple are moved into Mount Ye Ling. But if you want me, such an old bag of bones, to wear mourning clothes for them, I cannot accept it!"

"Finally, there is the matter of me handing over half of my assets; I cannot accept this either!"

"I just said it, I am willing to take out ten billion RMB as compensation. If your Palace Master is not satisfied, I can change the RMB to USD, but this is already the maximum limit I can accept!"

Lu Haotian really didn't expect that Ye Zhongquan would actually show resistance to every condition proposed by the Palace Master, so he questioned him with a sinister expression: "Old thing, did you think I came here to negotiate with you? I only came here to truthfully convey our Palace Master's instructions! You have no qualifications to bargain at all!"

Hearing this, Ye Zhongquan had an expression of being ready to die heroically and said coldly: "If there is no room for bargaining, then there is no need to talk. If your Palace Master is not afraid of inciting public anger, he can come to the Ye family and kill me. Anyway, at my age, death is not a pity."

When Ye Chen's eldest uncle, Ye Changkong, heard this, he became anxious and said in a low voice: "Dad! You must not be impulsive! This Wanlong Palace is extremely powerful, and they are all top experts, and they kill without blinking... Even the chief guard was vulnerable in front of them, let alone us ordinary people... You are old, but Xiao Feng, Xiao Hao, and the others are still young!"

Ye Zhongquan stared at him and asked coldly: "What? As the eldest son of the Ye family, do you want me to agree to their conditions?!"
