Urban Supreme Wild Son-in-Law War God

Chapter 25 Despicable Yun Family



In the Su family's main hall, everyone had gathered to celebrate the old patriarch's recovery. Yet, Ye Ling silently slipped away.

He approached a corner of the outer courtyard and gazed toward the direction of the Ye family ancestral home, murmuring, "This time I've returned, not only to avenge my parents but also to reclaim our ancestral home and appease their spirits in heaven."

"My lord!" Ye Jiu bent down on one knee, respectfully saying, "I have clarified the matter. After the destruction of the Ye family, the ancestral home fell into the hands of Yun Tianming."

"Yun Tianming, that despicable wretch, he was the one who betrayed my father!" Ye Ling said hatefully, a fierce intent flashing in his eyes.

The Yun family was originally a minor clan. If not for my father's support, how could the Yun family have risen to become one of the four great noble houses?

Yet Yun Tianming was ungrateful and kicked his benefactor while he was down, betraying his father. And now, he has even snatched away the Ye family's ancestral home, which is more despicable than livestock could ever be!

"My lord!" Ye Jiu hesitated, glancing at his darkened face, then spoke with a trembling voice, "Yun Tianming acquired the Ye family's ancestral home and completely demolished the compound. He's built a skyscraper called Yunzhen Tower on it. Today is the completion day, and he has even invited social elites to celebrate!"

The moment his words finished, he felt an icy gaze bore into him, as if piercing through his heart.

Ye Ling's gaze turned to ice as he stared in the direction of the Yun household, clenching his fists as he said coldly, "Yun Tianming, you deserve to die!"

"Ye Jiu, heed my command. Withdraw and arrange our men. I want Yun Corporation to go bankrupt. I want Yun Tianming and his son to be brought to justice. I want the Yun family's name stricken from the record!"

With a bang, his fist shot out, and the dense forest was as if ravaged by a hurricane, leaves scattered and tree trunks riddled with punch holes.

Ye Jiu's eyes showed shock; it was the first time he had seen the Northern Liao King so enraged.

With a heavy heart, Ye Jiu immediately knelt down and declared firmly, "My lord, rest assured. I shall arrange everything properly. I guarantee that the Yun family won't last past tomorrow!"

As his words fell, figures leapt up and darted off in every direction.

...

At the Yun family's site, which had once been the Ye family ancestral home, a building known as Yunzhen Tower reached high into the clouds, overlooking the entire city.

At the brightly-lit top floor, the Family Head Yun Tianming sat at the head of the table, swirling his wine glass and chuckling, "Haha, with my Yunzhen Tower's foundation set, not only have the presidents of various chambers of commerce attended, even a few government officials have come in person to celebrate. I, Yun, truly feel honored!"

"Haha, Family Head Yun, you are being modest. Who doesn't know that the Yun family is among the three greatest noble houses, especially in terms of wealth?"

"Indeed, in terms of wealth, the Yun family can be said to be the first among the leading families. It is truly an honor for us to be invited to a banquet at the Yun family!"

The crowd of wealthy merchants appeared reverent, bowing and raising their glasses to Yun Tianming, all holding their wine glasses as they stepped forward with smiles.

The young members of the Yun family looked smug, wrapping their arms around beautiful women and laughing, "Haha, our Yun family's current stature is all thanks to those fools of the Ye family. If they hadn't made such stupid mistakes, how could we climb over their heads to reach the top and become one of the three great noble houses?"

"Haha, I heard that Ye Ling, that waste, has come out of prison. He wouldn't be thinking of seeking revenge on us, would he?" Yun Long, the eldest son of the Yun family, said with a light laugh.

"Hehe, Ye Ling is now the live-in son-in-law of the Su family, which isn't even worth mentioning. He's too busy playing the coward to even think about seeking revenge from our Yun family," the crowd shook their heads, their eyes filled with scorn.

With the Yun family at the zenith of power, and Ye Ling being nothing more than a useless live-in son-in-law, he was like an ant, completely insignificant. If he dared to seek revenge against the Yun family, it would be an utter death wish!

"A live-in son-in-law, truly a disgrace!" Yun Long revealed a bored expression, then squinted his eyes and said, "I heard his wife, Su Rou, is stunningly beautiful, known as the top beauty. It's such a waste for her to be with him. Maybe I should send someone to the Su family to propose Su Rou become my concubine."

"Hehe, if Young Master Yun makes a move, I bet Ye Ling, that good-for-nothing, wouldn't dare to refuse and would even bring his wife over to curry favor," the crowd nudged each other, their faces full of mocking grins.

In front of these top-tier clans, a second-rate family like the Su family was completely beneath their notice.

At that moment, Ye Ling suddenly appeared at the doorway. He glanced coldly at the crowd and declared loudly, "Is Yun Tianming here? I, Ye Ling, have a gift for him!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd was taken aback, then showed an eager look as if they were about to watch a good show.

"Hmph, Ye Ling, you're just a live-in son-in-law now, with no right to attend a Yun family banquet. If you know what's good for you, you'd better scurry off!" Yun Long's cold voice carried a sinister glint in his eyes.

If it weren't for the banquet today and all the important families watching, he would have had someone take Ye Ling down, eradicating this remnant of the Ye family.

"Hmph, Yun Long, I'm here to speak with your father, not you. It's not your place to intervene!" Ye Ling snorted coldly, clutching a bundle as he walked forward.

But he had hardly taken two steps before Yun Long blocked his path, looking at Ye Ling with a sneer: "Oh, come on, Ye Ling. Everyone knows you're as poor as a dog. Aren't you here to beg for money?"

With that, he gestured with his fingers and tossed a stack of banknotes on the ground, announcing to everyone present, "Ye Ling, today is a joyous day for the Yun family, and I don't have the time to dally with you. Here's twenty thousand yuan. If you kneel down and offer your congratulations to the Yun family, the money is yours."

"Hehe, Ye Ling, aren't you going to kneel and kowtow to Young Master Yun? You don't even have a job right now, and that twenty thousand could keep you living in style for a while!" The crowd jeered, their faces brimming with delight.

The once great young master of the Ye family, a figure they used to look up to, was now like a lowly dog, trampled under their feet, the thrill of it exhilarating!

"Hmph, twenty thousand to shine my shoes, Yun Long? Aren't you generous!" Ye Ling sneered derisively, as he stepped on the banknotes on the ground.

"You, you're asking for it!" Yun Long's eyes turned green with rage. Had it not been for so many onlookers, he would have immediately ordered someone to kill this bastard.

Clenching his teeth to suppress the rage in his heart, he soon said with a mocking smile, "Alright, Ye Ling, if you want to join this banquet, that's fine. But you've got to show us your gift. Everyone seated here is an esteemed figure. If your gift is too shabby, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of these distinguished guests?"

"Exactly, everyone else brought jewels and paintings, each worth hundreds of thousands at least, unlike you, a penniless wretch with nothing but a ragged bundle, no better than a beggar!" The crowd laughed, their eyes looking disdainfully at his bundle.

Ye Ling glanced at Yun Tianming on the stage and then at Yun Long, who was gloating. He smiled faintly and said, "Alright, since you all want to see, I promise that this gift will definitely be an eye-opener!"

With a tug at the bundle, out came plaque after plaque of wood.

The crowd was taken aback, their eyes scrutinizing the wooden plaques.

On those plaques, clearly engraved, were characters representing various names.
