The Rebirth of the Strongest Female Emperor

Chapter 53: Second Elder (2)

After getting off the carriage, Ye Ling frowned as she looked at the several Elders from the Duan family beside the Great Elder.

Today was the day when the Second Elder of the Ye family was about to end his seclusion, what were the Elders of the Duan family doing here?

“Great Elder, this Elder from the Duan family ..” Ye Ling said with a frown.

The Great Elder replied coldly, “Before, the Second Elder went into seclusion to make a breakthrough. Our friends from the Duan family have almost the same level of strength as the Second Elder. They are here today to find out if the Second Elder has indeed managed to make a breakthrough and might even learn from the experience of the Second Elder.”

“Thank you for your hospitality,” Family Elder Duan smiled as they made a polite exchange despite their tone of somewhat disrespect to the family master, making him appear indifferent.

The Duan family was clearly aware of the situation in the Ye family. Although Ye Ling was still the ruler of the family of Ye family, the change in position of the person was only a matter of time.

They would rather be friendly with the Great Elder than with Ye Ling.

Anyways…

Supporting the Great Elder was Ye You who entered the Yunxiao Sect!

Ye Ling sensed that something was amiss, but the few Elders from the Duan family and the Great Elders did not intend to speak any further. Moreover, Ye Ling saw the shallow attitude of the Duan Family Elders towards her, and she knew that she would not get any answers even if she asked.

Up next…

Ye Ling was upset with the Duan family over Duan Tianrao's initiation to break off the engagement. Now that he saw Ye Xun and Duan Tianrao appear together in public, he was even more unwilling to say anything more.

At that moment, Ye Ling felt that it was a good thing for Ye Qingtang not to come today so that he would not get angry when he saw Ye Xun and Duan Tianrao together.

When the stone door completely opened, a tall figure slowly walked out of the stone door. It was an old man over fifty years old, but his tall and straight posture did not make him look old at all. His firm and handsome face exuded a healthy glow. If one ignored the faint wrinkles on his face, it would be difficult to guess the true age of this person before them.

The Second Elder of the Ye family stepped out steadily. Although he only wore a simple top, his disposition could not be covered.

As the Second Elder looked up, shock filled his eyes for a moment when he saw that other than the Ye family, the people from the Duan family were also there. However, he was not too worried.

Before he went into seclusion, Ye Qingtang and Duan Tianrao were engaged. So, even though he was surprised by the visit of the Duan family, he did not think too much about it.

When Ye Ling saw the Second Elder walking out of the stone door, her heart that had long been hanging in the air finally calmed down gradually. He immediately came forward to talk to the Second Elder, but a figure defeated him.

The Great Elder suddenly stood in front of the Second Elder. At that moment, there was not the slightest bit of emotion on the Great Elder's face. With a slight frown, his eyes sharpened when he saw the Second Elder, and he ordered coldly, “Down Second Elder!”

Ye Ling and the Second Elder were both stunned by the words of the Great Elder.

Just when Ye Ling and the Second Elder were still in shock, a group of guards who had come with the Great Elder came forward and locked onto the Second Elder's arm.

“Great Elder, what does this mean!” The Second Elder frowned in confusion.

“Great Elder, what are you doing?” Ye Ling's face sank as she looked at the Great Elder.
