"So what? Don't forget that before this, I hatched him alone. I didn't ask for a single cent from the family!" Ye Xiwen glanced at the Heaven Realm elder and said slowly.
What he meant was that when he worked hard, he didn't ask for a single cent from the family. Wasn't it a little too obvious for him to want to take the fruits of his labor now?
The elder's face instantly flushed red. He was angered by Ye Xiwen. Normal people wouldn't dare to speak to him like that.
It had been a long time since he was scolded by someone like that. But this person was Ye Xiwen. After such a long time, they knew that Ye Xiwen was different.
Ye Xiwen, who had already defeated an Initial Celestial Realm expert, had enough status to be on the same level as them.
To look at him with the eyes of the younger generation was a little funny.
There were many more disciples in the younger generation who could participate in the Elder Guild. It wasn't just the older generation anymore. There were even Heaven Realm experts like Ye Xukong, Ye Qiong, and Ye Kuang.
These people were enough to be on the same level as them. Maybe if this continued, in just a short time, the younger generation would replace their positions.
No one dared to shout at the younger generation anymore. That was because they had the right to be treated as equals.
"No matter what, it isn't as good as Master feeding him personally, right?" Ye Xiwen continued to ask.
Until the elders were all speechless. Indeed, this matter didn't make sense no matter how they looked at it. However, they were just hoping that Ye Xiwen would let them go.
Who knew that Ye Xiwen's temper was still the same as before. It was called smelly and tough. It was the same tough temper as his master. Many of these elders had seen Ye Xiwen's bad temper in high-level meetings. They didn't expect that after so many years, Ye Xiwen's temper hadn't changed at all. On the contrary, it had become even fiercer.
Many people thought about how Ye Xiwen treated the Phoenix Sect. Even someone as arrogant as Ye Kuang had to be careful and smile. Even if he was furious, he couldn't do anything. How did he dare to do that?
F * ck, he even knocked him out. How cruel was that!
At that time, many people of the Elder Council were also in the secret territory, and they saw with their own eyes that the Phoenix Sect was extraordinarily tyrannical. If they were in the same realm, even they could be defeated by the Phoenix Sect. However, such a tyrannical Phoenix Sect was beaten to a pulp by Ye Xiwen.
This was simply a lawless person. Whoever dared to provoke him, he dared to beat them up!
Not to mention the Phoenix Sect, even many people in the Elder Council had suffered at Ye Xiwen's hands. Ye Kuang had once been captured alive by Ye Xiwen. Ye Qian's son had died in Ye Xiwen's hands, but there was no way for him to take revenge.
Ye Zhen Mo's soul incarnation had been blown up by Ye Xiwen in front of everyone. Later on, Ye Xiwen had forced him to retreat after he had personally descended. This was a bitter, bloody history.
In the past, no matter how he looked at this troublemaker, he was always in a bad mood. If it wasn't for Ye Zhentian's support and the Patriarch's intentional or unintentional bias towards him, with his personality, could it be that he wanted to retreat unscathed?
However, now that they saw that he had beaten the arrogant and despotic Phoenix Sect half to death, they suddenly felt a little happy when they thought about it.
They had personally witnessed the Phoenix Sect's domineering nature, and they had beaten them until the end.
However, after the beating, there was a problem. There was still a lot of aftermath to deal with.
The entire Elder Council was dumbfounded by the questions. If they wanted to argue, they had to think about how Ye Xiwen had brutally blown up the Phoenix Sect's ferocious might. Looking at his fierce eyes, many people couldn't help but swallow their sophistry.
At this point, it was too late to say anything about restraining them!
"Then let's not talk about this first. Let's talk about the matter of you attacking the Phoenix Sect. Don't you know that he is the special envoy of the Ancient Phoenix Realm?" Ye Qian asked aggressively. Who knew that Ye Xiwen's next sentence would directly make their momentum stagnate, and they were dumbfounded.
"I don't know!" Ye Xiwen said as a matter of course.
Suddenly, many people became speechless. Motherf * cker! He really didn't know! Many people knew that he had been in closed-door training for ten years. And, he hadn't even stepped out of his house during these ten years. So, he didn't know. So, it was really reasonable to say that he didn't know.
Many people felt as if they were going to cry themselves blind. Did he really have to say such a thing?
"It doesn't matter whether you know or not. However, you have already created a fact. Don't you know that the Ancient Phoenix Realm's ambassador is pressuring our Ye Clan because of your impulsiveness? He wants us to hand you over. Otherwise, the cooperation between the human race and the Ancient Phoenix Realm will come to an end. Do you know how big of an impact you have caused?" Ye Qian shouted, "Our human race is fighting against the devil race on our own now. And, we need the cooperation of the Ancient Phoenix Realm. What do you want?"
"That's right. Can you bear the responsibility if the cooperation between the human race and the Ancient Phoenix Realm is destroyed?"
"You've committed a heinous crime. You've been arrogant and despotic in the past. But, you've affected the cooperation between the two races now. You won't be able to atone for your sins even if you die ten thousand times!"
Suddenly, everyone's reprimanding voice resounded in an earth-shattering manner.
They couldn't say anything about Kun Peng's matter in a righteous and confident manner. However, it was different now. Things would be different if they were crowned with righteousness.
"Have you been in closed-door seclusion for a long time? Have you become stupid?" Ye Xiwen looked at them and said.
"What did you say?"
"Impudent!"
"How dare you!"
The elders of the various clans shouted in succession.
"Do you think that an important matter like the cooperation between the two races will be decided by me or the Phoenix Sect?" Ye Xiwen tilted his head and asked. "The thing that decides whether the Ancient Phoenix Realm will cooperate or not isn't whether I've attacked the Phoenix Sect or not. Instead, it's whether there will be tangible benefits. Have you forgotten this? Could it be that you've been in closed-door seclusion for too long? And, you haven't come in contact with the matters of your race for a long time. So, you don't even have this little insight? "
These people's faces turned red as they heard Ye Xiwen's words. They were so angry that they almost died. They glared at Ye Xiwen one after another. They wanted to see what he would say.
"Can't you see it clearly? The Ancient Phoenix Realm has sent people to contact us. Is it because they sympathize with us? Are they pitying us? They're putting on such a high and mighty appearance. How come you've been deceived by them? "Ye Xiwen said.
He continued, "The real reason that prompted them to send their emissaries is because of the real threat of the devil race. The devil race is currently attacking our human race. However, will the other clans sit back and watch? The entire ancient desolation won't be far from falling if our human race is breached. And, the devil race will find the Ancient Phoenix Realm even if they hide in a different space once the ancient desolation is breached. They don't want the flames of war to affect the Ancient Phoenix Realm. So, they've sent people here. They're afraid that the devil race will go crazy. Would they have been defeated and driven out if the devil race hadn't attacked the Ancient Phoenix Realm and the Dragon Island at the same time? "Ye Xiwen looked around at everyone and said.
How could the people of the Ancient Phoenix World be so kind-hearted? They had come here because of the matter of the devil race. The Ancient Phoenix World had also suffered heavy losses due to the madness of the devil race. The devil race had driven the Ancient Phoenix World back to their hometown in the end. However, the people of the various races had been plunged into an abyss of misery and suffering at that time. And, this was still vivid in everyone's minds.
The devil race hadn't erupted with their most formidable fighting strength yet. That was because they had been suppressed outside the Devil World. So, they hadn't been able to display their superiority to the fullest. However, a large number of devils would descend upon the world if they were allowed to break through any one of them. And, it would be a disaster for the entire ancient desolation.
The human race wouldn't be able to stop them. So, the Ancient Phoenix Realm wouldn't be far from falling into the enemy's hands. And, the Ancient Phoenix Realm would also be affected once the ancient desolation fell into the enemy's hands. The Ancient Phoenix Realm must've understood this. Therefore, they had acted hastily before the human race had shown any obvious signs of decline. It would've been the best choice for all the clans if they could suppress the devil race at the crack. After all, the main force would be the human race, and not them.
"Don't mention that I had beaten up the Phoenix Sect in such a situation. So, what if I had killed him? Would the Ancient Phoenix Realm not have acted out of anger because of this? The reason they had acted wasn't because of sympathy. Instead, it was because of benefits. Would they sit idly by as long as there were enough benefits? " Ye Xiwen glanced at everyone and asked. Everyone suddenly felt a little embarrassed. It was as if they were asking an idiot.
"On the other hand, if I had been beaten to death at that time, would any of you have stood up for me and said that you wouldn't cooperate with the Ancient Phoenix Realm?"
Ye Xiwen asked a straightforward question. If he had been the one who had been defeated at that time, would they have stood up for Ye Xiwen?
It was obvious that they wouldn't have. The higher-ups of the human race would've thought of a way to suppress the impact of this matter. In the end, it was for the greater good. Whether it was him or the Phoenix Sect, their weight wasn't light. However, it was still far from the so-called greater good.
In the face of the greater good, everyone could be sacrificed. This included the Phoenix Sect and Ye Xiwen.
However, Ye Xiwen had won now. Therefore, the person who needed to be sacrificed wasn't him.
Everyone remained silent. They wanted to say that they would. However, it was obvious that no one would believe them even if they said it. If they were to say it forcefully, it would only be a ridiculous joke.
"Therefore, it doesn't matter whether I had beaten him or not. It has nothing to do with the greater good. They just want to use this opportunity to force the human race to bow their heads. When that time comes, they will occupy the dominant position in the cooperation between the two races. This is already very obvious. Did you see that their envoys had come to the human race? The Phoenix Sect is so arrogant because they want to infuriate us. Sooner or later, someone will take care of them. At that time, the Ancient Phoenix Realm will have a reason to flip out. Just like now! "Ye Xiwen said faintly.
