Chapter 430: Want to snatch even the position of the Patriarch?
"I can't possibly beg for mercy on your behalf." Ye Li looked at Ye Yuanwei coldly, "I don't know if you can still survive, but one thing is for sure: you have to return the position of head of the family to me."
"Everything in the Ye family is the result of my father's hard work. I will never let the Ye family fall into your hands again, including Ye Technology. From now on, it will have nothing to do with you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Yuanwei was stunned.
His expression instantly turned gloomy. "What? You still want to snatch the position of Patriarch from me?"
"I'm not robbing you, I'm asking you to return it."
Ye Yuanwei sneered immediately, "You are young, but you have big ambitions. You want to be the head of the Ye family, but you don't even consider whether you can manage the Ye family. If outsiders knew that the head of the Ye family is a waste, who do you think would still give our Ye family face?"
"I am no longer the waste you mentioned." Ye Li looked at him, raised his hand casually, and a powerful internal force poured out, directly destroying the thick wall next to him.
Ye Yuanwei and the elders were all stunned.
Several elders looked surprised, "Miss Ye Li, you can practice now?"
"I have been able to practice cultivation all along, but my acupoints are sealed, which prevents me from circulating my internal energy."
Ye Yuanwei couldn't believe it, "How is this possible?!"
When Ye Li was born, he secretly had someone seal Ye Li's acupoints. It is not easy to unseal the acupoints, and the probability of success is very small.
Ye Li glanced at Ye Yuanwei and said quietly, "You did this too, didn't you?"
Ye Yuanwei gritted his teeth, his face darkened, and he said nothing.
Several elders looked at Ye Yuanwei in disbelief, feeling deeply saddened by his actions. "Ye Yuanwei, this is your brother's only daughter!"
Is there anything Ye Yuanwei can’t do?
"In that case, Miss Ye Li, how did you recover?" asked one of the elders.
"It was Miss Jiang who helped me and asked Jiang Xuanji to unblock the acupuncture points for me."
When the elders heard this, they all understood, "So that's how it is!"
"If it's Jiang Xuanji, with his divination ability, he can calculate the best time to unblock the acupuncture points, which can also be regarded as a disguised way to increase the probability of success."
"Elders, I didn't have the ability to compete with Ye Yuanwei before, but now, after knowing the truth, I have no choice but to fight for the position of Patriarch. If you are willing to stand on the same side with me, I welcome you at any time. If not, then we can only fight with weapons."
"Having said that, the elders will decide whether to live or die."
Ye Li's meaning was clear enough.
In short, it can be translated as "Those who follow her will prosper, and those who go against her will perish."
It's just that it's said more subtly.
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of several elders showed strange colors.
Ye Yuanwei never thought that one day Ye Li, this loser, would dare to act so rampantly. He gnashed his teeth in anger, "Ye Li, do you still want to seize power and usurp the throne?"
Ye Li looked indifferent, not wanting to argue, "You can say that if you insist."
Ye Yuanwei's face turned ashen.
Ye Li didn't say anything else, but looked at the elders present.
The elders didn't even have to think about it.
"Ms. Ye Li, we support you!"
"Ms. Ye Li, Ye Yuanwei killed the previous head of the family and did such a heartless thing to you. If we had known the truth earlier, we would never have recognized him as the head of the family! Now, of course, we will no longer support him!"
Almost all the elders here were there when Ye Li’s father was in power. They were also very sad about Ye Jingtian’s death. Ye Yuanwei colluded with outsiders to murder the former head of the family. His crime was unforgivable and they would not forgive him!
"That's right. I suggest that Miss Ye Li be appointed as the new head of the family right now. Ye Yuanwei has offended the Jiang family and his life is coming to an end. He can no longer hold this position."
All of them were voices supporting Ye Li.
In the past, Ye Li was unable to practice ancient martial arts, and they were powerless to help him. But now it is different. Since Ye Li is qualified to be the head of the family, even though Ye Li is young, they will do their best to train him.
After all, this is the only bloodline of the previous head of the family!
Ye Yuanwei was so angry that his face turned blue, "You, you guys...!"
He really didn't expect these people to change their faces so quickly and all stand on Ye Li's side.
"Ye Yuanwei, if you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for having no bottom line. A person with such a vicious mind like you is not worthy of being the head of the family!" said the fourth elder in a deep voice.
"Besides, you have offended the Jiang family. Do you want the entire Ye family to be buried with you?"
"Even if it's for the Ye family, we have to choose Miss Ye Li."
"..."
"Since everyone has made up their minds, I would like to ask the elders to help drive Ye Yuanwei's lineage, including Ye Ronghui and Ye Zeqian, out of the castle."
The fourth elder looked directly at Ye Yuanwei, "Ye Yuanwei, do you want to leave on your own and save some dignity, or do you want us to take action?"
Ye Yuanwei was still trying to argue, "Elders, please don't listen to her one-sided words..."
The fourth elder snorted coldly, his expression becoming stern, "It seems you are asking me to take action."
The Fourth Elder was just about to take action when an extremely powerful force came crushing towards him, forcing the Fourth Elder back several steps.
It’s Ye Dongsheng, the eldest elder of the Ye family!
Together with Ye Dongsheng was the second elder, Ye Dingsheng, the only hypnotist among the elders of the Ye family.
There are eight elders in the Ye family elders council. The oldest one is the great elder Ye Dongsheng, who is 92 years old and is the undisputed strongest person in the Ye family.
Unlike the seven major clans, among the thirty-six noble families, the strength of the elders is often better than that of the family heads themselves, because the family heads are relatively young, and it is difficult for them to surpass their age advantage solely by talent.
Of course there are exceptions, but they are rare.
When Ye Dongsheng made this move, a thin layer of sweat appeared on the Fourth Elder's forehead, and he could barely stand steady.
When Ye Yuanwei saw Ye Dongsheng coming, he felt as if he had found his backbone, "Great Elder! You are finally here!"
He ran towards Ye Dongsheng, pointed at Ye Li and the elders around him, and shouted angrily: "These people are really lawless, they actually want to rebel!"
Ye Dongsheng's obscure gaze fell on Ye Li. Then, she glanced at the wall that Ye Li had punched through, stroked her beard, and sneered, "What? Now that your body has recovered, you've become so powerful? You even want to take the position of the head of the family?"
Ye Li narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Dongsheng, "Is the Great Elder planning to stand on Ye Yuanwei's side?"
Ye Dongsheng laughed twice, "Of course."
"I am loyal to the master of the family."
He glanced at the elders around Ye Li one by one, his eyes filled with contempt and disdain, "I'm not as stupid as some people."
The elders all looked unhappy when they heard this.
"Great Elder, Ye Yuanwei killed the previous head of the family! Even so, you still want to stand on his side?" The fourth elder looked at Ye Dongsheng with burning eyes.
