Third Elder struggled for a moment before replying. "She went out early in the morning. I don't know where she went either …" How would Third Elder dare to tell Great Elder about Ye Qingtang's whereabouts now? Great Elder already wanted to kill Ye Qingtang, and with Ye Xun's instigation, he had already made up his mind to kill her …
Great Elder took a deep breath, and his expression was very difficult.
The Third Elder responded tensely, but his heart was filled with anxiety.
He knew that Great Elder would not let Ye Qingtang off when he returned, and Third Elder was really as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He did not dare to tell Great Elder that he could not kill her because his grandson was in Ye Qingtang's hands. Otherwise, even he and Ye Ning would be in deep trouble!
Great Elder would not care about the slightest bit of friendship!
"Forget it. You can leave first!" Great Elder said coldly.
Third Elder's heart was in his throat, but he did not dare to let it go. As he retreated, his heart was in turmoil. He did not expect Great Elder's sudden return, and he could only secretly send out his trusted aide to bring the news to the Si family as soon as possible!
He hoped that Ye Qingtang could survive this calamity.
Only Great Elder and Ye Xun were left in the hall.
Although Ye Xun was young, she knew how to read people's expressions. When she saw Great Elder's displeased expression, she said, "Grandfather, Third Elder has always been reliable. This matter was not settled properly. Should we …"
Great Elder raised his hand slightly and interrupted Ye Xun's unfinished words.
He directly summoned the Ye family's housekeeper over. He did not completely believe Third Elder's words.
When the housekeeper saw Great Elder, he naturally told him everything he knew and honestly told him Ye Qingtang's whereabouts during this period of time. However, to prevent offending Third Elder, the housekeeper did not dare to say anything about Ye Ning.
"Si family?" When Great Elder heard about the Si family, his eyes were slightly shocked.
"Do you know how Ye Qingtang got in touch with the Si family?" Great Elder looked at the housekeeper. The Si family and the Ye family had a deep grudge. How did Ye Qingtang become so close to the Si family in such a short time?
The housekeeper shook his head. No one could guess this.
After thinking for a moment, the Great Elder dismissed the butler.
Ye Xun had been at the side all along and heard everything the housekeeper said just now. Although the housekeeper did not mention anything about the Third Elder, it was obvious that the Third Elder had a huge problem in dealing with Ye Qingtang.
"Could it be that Third Elder joined hands with Ye Qingtang?" Ye Xun asked.
The Great Elder sneered. "Join forces? Third Brother did not have the guts to do so. He was afraid that Ye Qingtang had something on him. However, since I've returned to the Ye Clan, what happens to Third Brother is no longer important. "
Ye Xun nodded obediently. "As long as grandpa oversees the Ye Family, Sister You's path will be smooth."
The First Elder narrowed his eyes expressionlessly, but a ruthless cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Ye Qingtang must die, but she must not die by my hands."
The crime of murdering the Patriarch's successor was enough for the Great Elder to bid farewell to the position of Patriarch.
Regardless of whether it was for Ye You or himself, Ye Qingtang must be eliminated secretly and must not be caught by anyone. Otherwise, he would not have asked the Third Elder to get rid of Ye Qingtang before he left.
Currently, Ye Qingtang was not dead yet. Her survival was a huge hidden danger to Ye You and the Great Elder.
