Chapter 995: Completely Erase
flaws, unable to determine if it was his luck being against him, or if there had been foul play during the drawing of lots.He glanced at Zhang He, but the old eunuch didn't even look at him. His expre...Ye Bufan smiled faintly: "Everything has its priorities, I'm here to help the head of the Dongfang family."
He couldn't figure out what Dongfang had that needed Ye Bufan's help.
"Ye Bufan smiled and said, "How come, Patriarch Dongfang doesn't welcome me"
Oriental Construction only then realized it had been rude and quickly invited him in.
The steward knew Ye Bufan had something to discuss with the head of the household, so he arranged for tea, snacks, and fruit to be prepared before having everyone else leave. Only the two of them remained in the grand hall.
Dongfang Jianye asked, “Mr. Ye, what did you just mean You've left me confused.”
Ye Bufan smiled faintly: "Head of the Dongfang clan, how do you think things went today"
"Wonderful! It feels so good! I've hated that old fox, Ximen Fengyun, for so many years, and today I finally got to slap him right in the face. "
After today's events, the Ximen family will definitely lose face in the capital.
Speaking of which, Dongfang Jianye's face lit up with excitement.
Ye Bufan asked, "What does the head of the Dongfang family think Will the Ximen family have other moves"
"Well, I never thought of that."
Oriental Construction was momentarily speechless. He clearly hadn't thought about this.
The Five Great Families of the Imperial Capital have coexisted for decades, and in recent years, they have lived in peace. This has made him gradually lose his vigilance.
Let's put ourselves in Ximen Fengyun's shoes. What state of mind would he be in right now What would he do next
“If I were Ximen Fengyun, I would definitely be furious right now. As for what to do next…”
At this point, Dongfang Jianye also stopped and began to think seriously.
As the head of the Eastern Family, his mind was by no means simple; he had just overlooked this issue previously.
I originally thought that the Five Great Families would remain peaceful for many years, and the Ximen Family wouldn't make any further moves. But now it seems like things are not as simple as they appear.
He rose from his armchair, hands clasped behind him, pacing the room in deep thought for a long time.
“Today, you and I were too intimate, and as your family is the Changsun clan's branch, there is already a trend towards unification.”
If the two forces joined hands, it would be absolutely impossible for the Ximen family to resist. This would cause Ximen Fengyun extreme unease.
And now he is no longer what he used to be, holding two heaven-ranked great perfection level masters in his hand, against a family whose strength is absolutely the strongest.
"Speaking of this, his expression grew grave. 'If I were Simon Fengyun, I would take further action regardless of whether it was for the sake of the Simon family's reputation or self-preservation.'"
The best way is to defeat them one by one before the Changsun family and the Dongfang family truly unite.
In terms of strength, neither the Dongfang family nor the Changsun family can stand up to the Ximen family without outside help...
"Speaking of which, he changed the subject: "Mr. Ye's meaning is that Ximen Fengyun will take action against our Eastern family"
"Yes, I guess that's it."
Ye Bufan said, "The Ximen family took the initiative because there are three reasons. First, it was for self-preservation to prevent the Dongfang family and Changsun family from uniting and then eliminating them."
Second, they now have the capability to strike first.
If it had happened before Ximen Fengxue's breakthrough, they would have been evenly matched against both the Dongfang and Changsun families.
If you forcibly eliminate your opponent, the end result will be that you are severely weakened, and then you will be absorbed by the other major families.
But now it's different, they have two experts at the peak of Heavenly Rank, and with a sneak attack, they can eliminate the opponent at minimal cost.
The third reason is for face. Today, the Ximen family can be said to have lost all face. If we don't take some action, it will really be impossible to stand in the capital in the future.
"For these three reasons, I guess the Ximen family will definitely take action tonight."
Dongfang Jianye's expression grew heavier and heavier. He now fully agreed with Ye Bufan's statement and then asked, "Even if the Ximen family is preparing to divide and conquer, how can you be sure they will target our Dongfang family first"
"In terms of strength, the Dongfang family and the Changsun family are not much different, they could be said to be evenly matched."
In this regard, the possibility of the Ximen family attacking you is roughly 50% for both sides.
But when it comes to emotions, it's different. I'm the grandson of Changsun's family, so them helping me is only right.
And today, the head of the Eastern Family is completely on my side. This will definitely anger the Western Family even more.
"In this regard, the Ximen family is even more eager to seek revenge on you, and the probability of them making a move could increase by at least 10%."
"That's only 10%, Mr. Ye, why are you so sure The Ximen family will definitely attack us first."
Oriental Construction didn't have any other meaning; it was just curious about making this judgment on Ye Bufan.
Ye Bufan smiled faintly: "The head of the Dongfang family is right, but that was before. Now I have sent Qingye Shi Tai and my mother back to the Changsun family, and I am here now."
As a top family in the imperial capital, Ximen Fengyun couldn't possibly be unaware of our situation.
If he goes to Changsun's family first, with Qingye Shi Tai there, they wouldn't stand a chance.
And at this very moment, I happen to be at the Eastern House. If they were to kill me, perhaps Master Qingye would leave for the Imperial Capital and no longer assist the Changsun family.
This way, they could break the alliance between the Dongfang and Changsun families and establish themselves as the first family in the capital.
It's a double win; you can both kill me and avenge yourself. Do you think the Ximen family would pass up such a good opportunity
"No."
"Dongfang Jianye confidently stated, 'I can now confirm that tonight, they will definitely attack the Dongfang family.'"
He then asked, "Since Mr. Ye has already confirmed that the Ximen family will seek revenge, why didn't they just attack directly at the wedding today"
With Longsun Wugong and Qingye Shi Tai, plus our Eastern family's Great Elder, we could completely crush the Ximen family in terms of strength and give them a heavy blow.
As long as one of Ximen Fenglei and Ximen Fengxue is eliminated, the Ximen family will be severely weakened and unable to cause any waves.
That is not the best choice.
Ye Bufan shook his head, "If that old fox, Ximen Fengyun, couldn't control his temper, they would strike first, and we would still have a chance to make a move. But he held back."
Even when I slapped Ximen Yujiao at the end, he still didn't move.
The Ximen family, no matter what, is a top family in the capital. This is under the emperor's feet. If we act too aggressively, we might incur displeasure from above.
In this situation, even if we took the initiative, it wouldn't be good to go too far. Even if we crippled one Heavenly Realm Grand Perfection, there's still another one.
"Later, I'm going to bring my industry to the capital. If we don't eliminate this threat, it will inevitably pose a huge danger to me and my family. This isn't the outcome I desire."
Ye Bufan did think that way. Since he had offended the Xi Men family, he might as well go all out and eliminate this threat completely.
Whether it's Qin Chuchu, An Yimo, or Wang Xueneng, in the future they will all develop their industries to the capital city.
Leaving the Ximen family as such a great enemy would definitely be a huge threat. He wouldn't allow any danger to threaten his woman's existence.
Oriental Construction's face drastically changed, and with a shocked expression, he cried out, "Your meaning is to completely erase the Xi Men family from the capital"s larger.After this tribulation of annihilation thunder, the gourd containing meteor thunder in my hand is basically at its capacity limit.I was still worried about how to deal with the next thunderst...
