Chapter 1691

When Ye Chen and the Ye family members finished their simple worship of the ancestors and came to Buckingham with his grandfather Ye Zhongquan and little aunt Ye Changxiu to host a banquet for the relatives and friends who had climbed Mount Ye Ling today, the outside world, which had been paying attention to the movements of Mount Ye Ling, had already received the news.

Learning that the Ye family finally compromised with the Cataclysmic Front, no one who didn't know the inside story doubted the authenticity of this news.

After all, no matter how powerful these tycoon families were, they couldn't defeat the Cataclysmic Front. This was the basic consensus of everyone.

Moreover, the Hall Master of the Cataclysmic Front had deep hatred for the Ye family, so he would definitely not spare the Ye family members lightly.

And those Ye family branch members who fled overnight, after receiving this news, were all incomparably lucky in their hearts.

What they were lucky about was that they reacted quickly and ran even faster, thus escaping a disaster.

However, besides being lucky that they escaped a disaster, they were also worried about the future.

These branch families all relied on the Ye family for survival. The main source of income for many branches was the business that the Ye family rewarded them with.

After all, every branch family was separated from the main family step by step. This was like Ye Zhongquan becoming the head of the family, and his younger brother, Ye Zhongzhuo, had to consciously leave the Ye family and go out to stand on his own.

And Ye Zhongquan, whether out of compensation or family affection, naturally couldn't ignore his younger brother from then on. On the contrary, he had to give him as many resources as possible. One was to keep him from having the idea of competing for the head of the family, and the other was to maintain family affection. At the same time, once there was a need, these distant relatives could also come to help.

The principle is like the crown prince ascending the throne in ancient times, arranging other brothers to be feudal lords in various places.

For these branch families, once they lost the big tree of the Ye family, their own future development would also be greatly affected.

However, before they could catch their breath, the Cataclysmic Front released news again: "All Ye family branch members whose names appear on the Ye family's ancestor worship ceremony list must gather at the foot of Mount Ye Ling before 8:00 tomorrow morning to kneel and worship. Those who fail to arrive by the deadline will be hunted down globally by the Cataclysmic Front!"

As soon as this news came out, these domestic big families were even more shocked.

Everyone didn't expect that the Cataclysmic Front would not be satisfied after conquering the Ye family, and would not even let go of these branch branches of the Ye family.

And these Ye family branches were also desperate to the extreme.

The feeling of surviving a disaster hadn't lasted long before it was immediately replaced by the despair of "the monk can run, but the temple can't run."

The big list of the Ye family's ancestor worship ceremony had long recorded the name and identity information of each of them in great detail.

For example, who is the person, how old, what generation, where is the home, who is the father, who is the grandfather, and which branch of the Ye family the ancestors were separated from—these were all written clearly with a brush dipped in cinnabar.

Because this big list was to be burned for the ancestors to see after the ancestor worship ceremony, no one dared to have any sloppiness on it.

Now, this list had fallen into the hands of the Cataclysmic Front, which was equivalent to everyone's bottom line being firmly grasped by the Cataclysmic Front, so there was nowhere to run.

Everyone knew the strength of the Cataclysmic Front very well. If they really wanted to assassinate them, it would be easy, so no one dared to defy the Cataclysmic Front's order.

Therefore, this group of people could only bite the bullet and return with anxiety.

Ye Zhongzhuo's son and grandson received the news on a private plane returning to Canada.

Ten minutes after receiving the news, the plane made a circle at an altitude of 10,000 meters and turned back to Yanjing.

At the same time, Ye Chen had already filled his wine glass and was thanking all the relatives and friends who had climbed Mount Ye Ling today one by one in the banquet hall of Buckingham.

And these relatives and friends of his, including his father's close friend Gu Yanzhong, looked at him now as if they were looking at a god.

The first person Ye Chen toasted was Gu Yanzhong.

In his eyes, Gu Yanzhong was the elder he respected the most and the one who treated him the best.

Therefore, he was deeply grateful that his family of three could climb Mount Ye Ling today.

Gu Yanzhong was also unable to calm down for a long time in excitement at this time. After a few glasses of wine, he said to Ye Chen with difficulty hiding his excitement: "Chen'er, now that you have taken the Cataclysmic Front under your command, the Ye family's strength is already the undisputed number one among many families in the country! Looking at the world, it can at least rank in the top ten!"

Ye Chen said: "The gap between the top ten and the number one is still very far..."

Gu Yanzhong said seriously: "It doesn't matter if there is a gap, but you must be steady and take it step by step."

As he said this, Gu Yanzhong exhorted Ye Chen: "Chen'er, a family like Rothschild is too strong. At this time, I really don't suggest you contact them too early!"

Ye Chen nodded and laughed: "Uncle Gu, rest assured, I won't clash head-on with them when I go to Northern Europe this time. The main thing is to help Helena regain the throne first, and by the way, contact the Rothschild family. I will hide my identity when the time comes, please rest assured."

Seeing that Ye Chen had made up his mind, Gu Yanzhong exhorted: "Rothschild is commonly known as Old Money in Europe and America. Unlike new-generation tycoons like Bill Gates, whose every asset and every stock is on the table, it is more like a huge iceberg. What we can see now is just the tip of the iceberg!"

"And what is truly powerful about it is its comprehensive penetration into the entire Western society that has been pervasive over the past few hundred years!"

"On the surface, it seems that they have ten companies, but in reality, the companies they actually control through various means may be as many as thousands. This power is quite terrifying, so terrifying that even if your grandfather's family is already one of the top three families in the world, the assets of your grandfather and the Middle Eastern royal family combined may not be able to rival Rothschild!"

Speaking of this, Gu Yanzhong exhorted: "Chen'er, no matter when, when facing the Rothschild family, you must be absolutely careful!"

Ye Chen nodded solemnly and said: "Uncle Gu, rest assured, I have a plan in mind!"

At this time, Gu Qiuyi looked at Ye Chen with an excited face and said excitedly: "Brother Ye Chen! With your strength, I believe that even the Rothschild family will be stepped under your feet by you!"

Gu Qiuyi was originally Ye Chen's little fan, and now she was even more like a fanatical fan.

Ye Chen nodded slightly and laughed: "Nannan, rest assured, this day will eventually come!"

After finishing, Ye Chen filled another glass of wine and said: "Uncle Gu, Auntie Lin, and Nannan, I toast the three of you, thank you again for your great love for me!"

The Gu family of three filled their wine glasses and drank it down with Ye Chen.

Seeing the Song family and the Ito family sitting at the same table not far away, Ye Chen said to the Gu family of three: "There are other friends over there, I'll go say hello first."

"Go!" Gu Yanzhong said with a smile: "Remember to come back and drink with Uncle later!"

"Good!"

Ye Chen said goodbye to the Gu family, carried his wine glass, and came to the table where the Song family and the Ito family were.

At this time, Ito Nanako, watching Ye Chen walk closer and closer, although she was still as gentle as water, the look full of love in her eyes could no longer be hidden.

She had originally loved Ye Chen extremely deeply. Today, seeing Ye Chen force the entire Cataclysmic Front to kneel in front of him and beg for mercy with his own strength, she only felt that if she couldn't marry Ye Chen or become his woman in this life, she could only grow old alone.

Because she knew that there would never be any other man who could conquer herself from consciousness like Ye Chen.

As for the elegant and beautiful Song Wanting, she had always demanded herself with the demeanor of a lady, but deep in her heart, she had long since fallen like a little woman.

As soon as Ye Chen arrived, the Song family and the Ito family all stood up.

Ito Yuhiko and Tanaka Koichi couldn't stand because they had lost their legs, but they also raised their wine glasses high and looked at Ye Chen with respect.

And the nearly two hundred people brought by their two families also stood up in unison!

Among them, more than a hundred top ninjas who were regarded as national treasures in Japan stood straight, their hands humbly hanging on both sides of their bodies, and their necks and heads respectfully lowered by forty-five degrees, full of respect.

This was their instinctive reaction and etiquette when facing the strong they respected and feared.

Seeing this scene, Gu Yanzhong couldn't help but sigh to his wife and daughter: "These Japanese ninjas seem to have been completely conquered by Chen'er's strength. In front of him, they don't even dare to raise their heads!"

Gu Qiuyi said seriously: "That's for sure! Brother Ye Chen's strength is much stronger than theirs, they must be respectful!"

Lin Wanqiu whispered at this time: "I always feel that the girl from the Ito family and the girl from the Song family look at Chen'er with eyes that seem a bit wrong..."

After finishing, she looked at the Su family sisters, Su Zhiyu and Su Ruoli, sitting at another table not far away, and sighed: "And those sisters from the Su family... the way they look at Chen'er also has some problems..."
