What!
Wang Qisheng's eyes suddenly flashed.
He had already explained about the appointer.
Besides that, Ye Cangtian's last sentence made him furious.
"Ye Cangtian, out of respect for you as a member of the Hidden Group, I've been polite. But don't push your luck!"
"Tell me, on what grounds do I not have the qualification to lead the Dragon Group?"
Seeing Wang Qisheng's furious expression, Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and said, "I was in charge of the Dragon Group for a period before, and there is indeed someone like you in the Dragon Group."
Ye Cangtian paused and continued, "However, if I remember correctly, the records state that you are only a Xuan-level expert."
"Of course, I'm not saying that a Xuan-level expert cannot lead the Dragon Group, but rather, since you can lead the Dragon Group, why can't Xu Weiwei?" Ye Cangtian added.
"Heh, records are static, but people are alive and can grow."
Upon hearing Ye Cangtian's words, Wang Qisheng's face instantly showed a faint smile, and then he released a hint of his aura.
Huh?
In an instant, Ye Cangtian's brow furrowed tightly. He had already sensed this trace of aura.
What he didn't expect was that the other party was not a Xuan-level expert, but a quasi-Tian-level expert. He would not be mistaken about this.
Seeing Ye Cangtian's expression, Wang Qisheng's face showed a few more hints of pride and he continued, "Ye Cangtian, do you have any more doubts? To be frank, the reason why Old Master Xu had an accident was precisely due to his low strength."
Hmph!
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian snorted lightly.
He had already understood the implied meaning of the other party, which was clearly stating that to avoid repeating the same mistakes, the Dragon Group must be controlled by someone with strong power.
In that case, Xu Weiwei would be the first to be ruled out.
Thinking thus, Ye Cangtian said, "Even if you have the strength, you still lack the qualification!"
"Why?"
Wang Qisheng asked with a dark expression.
"I've already stated the reason, to lead the Dragon Group, one must gain the recognition of the Dragon Group members!" Ye Cangtian said calmly.
"Haha, ridiculous!"
Wang Qisheng burst into disdainful laughter and continued, "Once they spend enough time with me, they will naturally recognize me. These are not issues!"
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian said calmly, "Alright then, you can start as a member of the Dragon Group. When you gain their recognition, it will not be too late to lead the Dragon Group."
"You!"
With that sentence, Wang Qisheng was instantly enraged. He said fiercely, "Ye Cangtian, strictly speaking, you are no longer a member of the Dragon Group. It's best you worry less about the Dragon Group's affairs!"
"Hmph!"
Before Ye Cangtian could speak, Xu Weiwei let out a cold snort. She looked at Wang Qisheng and said, "Mr. Wang, although Ye Cangtian has joined the Hidden Group, he will forever be a member of our Dragon Group! Therefore, he has the qualification to manage Dragon Group matters!"
She paused and then said unpleasantly, "Also, I need to inform you that Ye Cangtian is more qualified to lead the Dragon Group than anyone else, so I will prioritize his words. If you cannot accept this, then please leave! I won't see you out!"
This...
Seeing Xu Weiwei, who had been silent, suddenly erupt, Wang Qisheng was stunned.
He had thought Xu Weiwei was a pushover who could be manipulated at will, but he hadn't expected her to be so resolute.
For a moment, Wang Qisheng's expression kept changing.
After a while, he looked at Xu Weiwei and said, "Miss Weiwei, whether you are willing or not, this is the appointment from above. I also know that you are not in a good mood lately, so I will give you some time to consider. We can talk again later."
In this situation, Wang Qisheng ultimately chose to leave.
He realized that with Ye Cangtian here, he would not be able to smoothly take over the Dragon Group, so he would come back another time.
Just as he was about to step out of the living room, he stopped and said, "Ye Cangtian, a word of warning. The matters of the higher-ups are not for you to interfere with. Don't ruin your future!"
After speaking, Wang Qisheng left the family compound without looking back.
Watching the retreating figure, Ye Cangtian's expression turned grim.
He really wanted to go to Dragon City now to see who issued such an order, but he couldn't leave at the moment!
If he left, Wang Qisheng would come again, and with the appointment letter in hand, Xu Weiwei and Xu Shian would surely find it difficult to resist.
Moreover, no modern communication devices could be used within the Huaxia ruins. This round trip would take at least half a month.
If Wang Qisheng utilized such a long time effectively, by the time he returned, the Dragon Group would be unrecognizable!
"Brother, what should we do?"
Just then, Xu Shian's voice came.
Ye Cangtian was silent for a moment and then slowly said, "I will handle this matter. Let's pay respects to Old Master Xu first!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Shian nodded. He fully supported Ye Cangtian's decision!
On the other side, although Xu Weiwei saw something, she did not say it directly.
Thus, the three of them came before Old Master Xu's memorial tablet.
The next moment, Xu Shian took out Drams's head from the Qiankun Bag and placed it on the altar.
This...
Upon seeing Drams's head, Xu Weiwei was stunned, and then her eyes turned red.
She naturally recognized Drams, and at that moment, she wished she could stab him two more times.
Thud!
After offering incense, Xu Shian knelt before the memorial tablet.
"Old Master, with Brother's help, your grandson personally beheaded Drams and avenged you! If you have a spirit in heaven, you can rest in peace..."
"Ye Cangtian!"
As Xu Shian's voice just fell, a sharp shout came.
Xu Weiwei, standing nearby, rushed to Ye Cangtian in anger and unceremoniously kicked him.
Bang!
The kick landed heavily on Ye Cangtian's stomach, but Ye Cangtian was unharmed. Instead, Xu Weiwei was bounced away, losing her balance and falling to the side.
This...
Seeing this scene, Xu Shian was completely bewildered and quickly said, "Sister, what are you doing?"
"Don't worry about it!"
Xu Weiwei reprimanded him, then looked at Ye Cangtian and said fiercely, "Scoundrel, you dare to fight back!"
Uh...
With that sentence, Ye Cangtian was instantly on the verge of tears. He hadn't fought back at all. It was clearly because the other party's strength was insufficient, and she was repelled by his protective Zhen Qi.
Of course, he also understood the reason why Xu Weiwei attacked him.
It was because he had taken Xu Shian to risk their lives in Bright City to avenge Old Master Xu without informing Xu Weiwei beforehand.
Now that revenge had been served, Xu Weiwei found out and was furious.
Therefore, to let her vent her anger, Ye Cangtian had not dodged just now.
On the other side, seeing Ye Cangtian's silence, Xu Weiwei became even more agitated and angrily said, "Ye Cangtian, do you know that he was the only relative I had in this world!"
Xu Weiwei spoke with increasing grievance, tears falling one by one.
Ye Cangtian could not tolerate her in his heart and did not accept her, but he also took Xu Shian to take risks.
If Xu Shian had an accident, how could she live? How could she explain it to her grandfather!
"It was my fault. I concealed it from you before because I was afraid you would worry."
"Don't worry, this is absolutely the last time."
Seeing the tears on Xu Weiwei's face, Ye Cangtian felt a prickle in his scalp.
He could face mountains of knives and seas of fire, and even the depths of hell, but only women's tears left him helpless.
"You... Hmph!"
Seeing Ye Cangtian admit his mistake, Xu Weiwei was suddenly at a loss.
After all, the other party had admitted his mistake and had avenged her grandfather, so she had no reason to be angry anymore. But to continue like this, she truly felt stifled!
"That... I have some urgent matters at home. Now that we've paid respects to Old Master, I'll be leaving..."
Seeing the awkwardness of the situation, Ye Cangtian hesitated for a moment and felt it was best to make a quick exit.
So he said, then quickly turned to leave.
"Stop right there!"
Just then, Xu Weiwei's voice came from behind him, and Ye Cangtian couldn't help but stop.
He saw Xu Weiwei walking up.
"I was a bit impulsive just now, please don't mind... that kick is the price for deceiving me."
Gritting her teeth, Xu Weiwei glanced at the footprints on Ye Cangtian's clothes and said, "Take off your clothes, I'll wash them for you. You are not allowed to refuse, consider it my thanks for avenging Grandpa..."
This...
Ye Cangtian's head suddenly felt enormous. He wanted to refuse, but he thought that if he didn't agree, the other party would find other reasons to thank him, which would be even more troublesome.
So he nodded, found a room, left his clothes, and quickly left the family compound...
