Supernatural Insight Eyes-Chapter 1896 - 1897: Storm-Taming Song (Part 27)

Ye Qiu was nearly eliminated by a Saint, upon hearing this news, Zhang Yunke and Song Qinglong both sneered.

"Didn’t expect this guy to have such a strong fate. He’s not dead yet, wonder who made the move. As a Saint, failing to instantly kill a Martial Artist at the Return Ruins level, makes one question the prestige of a Saint." Zhang Yunke remarked.

"If it’s not from either of our families, could it be from the Fang or Xiahou families? It’s known that Fang Wei and Xia Houchun have had conflicts with the boy." Song Qinglong responded.

Zhang Yunke nodded, thinking it was possible, but felt that such minor conflicts probably couldn’t provoke their family into deploying a Saint. Without major enmities, this couldn’t happen.

Suddenly, Zhang Yunke recalled something, asking Song Qinglong, "Brother Song, do you remember when someone from the Zhu family came to see us a few days ago, wanting to discuss matters regarding Ye Fentian, but we declined?"

"That did happen." Song Qinglong remembered indeed such an event occurred.

"Do you mean, Brother Zhang, it’s likely a Saint from the Zhu family dispatched?" Song Qinglong queried.

Zhang Yunke nodded: "During the exchange meeting, besides Fang Wei and Xia Houchun, Zhu Yunkuang from the Zhu family was also defeated by Ye Fentian. I think it’s most likely the Zhu family took action."

Song Qinglong agreed with Zhang Yunke’s perspective, then chuckled: "No matter what, Ye Fentian just circled around the gates of hell this time. I’m curious how he will retaliate; he probably doesn’t even know who struck at him."

"Haha, that’s possible. Despite many Saints showing respect, it’s only because of his Divine Grade Alchemist status. Until he truly becomes an Immortal Grade Alchemist, no Saint would genuinely stand up for him against the Zhu family." Zhang Yunke laughed.

Just the day after Ye Qiu was attempted to be assassinated by a Saint, Ye Qiu released a personal statement that quickly spread throughout Luohé City.

The statement read: "The one who attempted to assassinate me is from the Zhu family. Within three days, Clan Leader Zhu Tian should come personally and apologize. If not, I, Ye Qiu, will punish the Zhu family in my own way."

Once this message was out, Luohé City was in an uproar. It was the first time someone dared to publicly diss a family.

Especially being openly targeted by a young person like Ye Qiu.

Forcing Zhu Tian, the clan leader of the Zhu family, to personally apologize was seen by many as inviting humiliation upon oneself. No matter what, Zhu family is a prominent clan that cannot simply be shaken.

In response to Ye Qiu’s words, the Zhu family stated that they knew nothing, accusing Ye Qiu of slander, deliberately framing the Zhu family, and if Ye Qiu wants to cause trouble for the Zhu family, they are ready to face it.

The Zhu family naturally would not acknowledge guilt or actively admit fault; otherwise, they would not be able to survive in Luohé City.

Regarding Ye Qiu’s declaration, the Zhu family’s stance was denial and fearlessness.

Seeing Ye Qiu and the Zhu family in direct confrontation, the families in Luohé City were stunned, not expecting the Zhu family to be thrust into the limelight overnight due to Ye Qiu’s actions.

Many speculated why Ye Qiu believed the Zhu family attacked him, sending two Saints to kill him.

Moreover, what kind of feud existed between Ye Qiu and the Zhu family was a mystery to many.

Some said Ye Qiu was once a Pill Master for the Zhu family, always neglected until becoming a Divine Grade Alchemist when the Zhu family began to value him. Eventually, Ye Qiu became displeased, left the Zhu family, arousing their hatred, leading to the attempt to eliminate him.

Others claimed the Zhu family once killed Ye Qiu’s family members, and now that Ye Qiu has become a Divine Grade Alchemist, having amassed some power and allied with the Bai family, he dares to openly challenge the Zhu family.

Ye Qiu heard such rumors, considering them baseless, while Bai Lingtian had better insight.

Knowing Ye Qiu’s acquaintance with Zhu Cang and linking the current relationship between Zhu Cang and the entire Zhu family, and Ye Qiu’s close relationship with Zhu Cang, it wasn’t difficult to imagine the Zhu family feared Ye Qiu’s growth, assisting Zhu Cang, potentially leading the Zhu family to change, hence wanting to remove Ye Qiu.

In fact, Bai Lingtian’s speculation was close enough, yet he felt Ye Qiu openly displaying hostility towards the Zhu family wasn’t a wise move.

Ye Qiu paid little heed; with the courage to declare such a statement, he already had contingency plans.

"Brother Lingtian needn’t worry about me. This matter between me and the Zhu family, you don’t need to intervene, I’ll handle it myself." Ye Qiu said.

Bai Lingtian didn’t know what leverage Ye Qiu had against the Zhu family, but he could assure that as long as Ye Qiu was in the Bai family, the Zhu family couldn’t harm him.

As for taking action against the Zhu family, Bai Lingtian was reluctant, as he had no enmity with the Zhu family.

Bai Lingtian also wanted to see how Ye Qiu would act; he didn’t believe Zhu Tian would truly come to apologize, pondering how Ye Qiu would conclude the situation.

Three days was a short time; during this period, Ye Qiu’s statements circulated among the families, prompting some young members to deem such behavior presumptuous.

No one believed in Ye Qiu; alone, he seemingly lacked a strong foundation in Luohé City, merely garnering Bai Lingtian’s favor. Combined with his Divine Grade Alchemist status, attracting some Saints’ attention. However, it was deemed impossible for these connections to cause Saints to confront the Zhu family.

The Zhu family wasn’t easy prey.

It should be known that the Zhu family housed multiple Saints, including a Supreme Elder, making it unlikely for a Saint who attacked them to walk away alive.

Even a Top-tier Saint wouldn’t dare take risks, as the Zhu family’s Supreme Elder was a Top-tier Saint himself.

As everyone prepared to watch the drama unfold, the three-day period ended, as expected, Zhu Tian didn’t appear, the Zhu family treated Ye Qiu’s words as if they didn’t exist, completely ignoring it.

"I wonder what this fellow has in store to punish the Zhu family; may he not strain himself boasting." Zhang Yunke remarked casually.

At this moment, Zhang Yunke, Song Qinglong, and some of Luohé City’s top young members were gathered at an inn, not far from the Bai family, from where they could observe people entering and leaving.

These individuals waited from morning until evening, with no sign of Ye Qiu.

"Let’s disperse; I suspect this guy is just bluffing, we may have been tricked by him."

"Indeed, he wouldn’t have the guts to trouble the Zhu family. A young man expecting to embarrass a family is improbable."

Many sneered, not seeing Ye Qiu appear, the crowd began to disperse, even Zhang Yunke and Song Qinglong felt there was no point in staying.

As dusk settled under the full moon. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

A silhouette stood in the air. Nobody believed Ye Qiu would genuinely act against the Zhu family, but tonight, Ye Qiu arrived to deliver a profound lesson to the Zhu family with his methods.
