Chapter 136 You don't want to be punished by the sect, do you?
Ye Wensheng did not hide anything because he planned to have Ye Cheng help him seize control of the Ye family, and there were some things he needed to tell Ye Cheng.
Yes, there is more than one.
The cultivators stationed at the Ye family's residence come from major sects and have already formed a relationship of mutual benefit with the Ye family.
They possess certain rights and interests in the capital, which are incomparable to those of minor sects.
Cheng'er, it is a big taboo for secular cultivators to cultivate internal energy. Once you have cultivated internal energy, you must go to the capital to register.
Without registration, if a conflict arises with a sect on the mountain, even if one is killed, it will be a pointless death.
Moreover, the capital city has a special department for reporting lay practitioners.
Once discovered, having their martial arts skills crippled is the least of their worries.
Ye Cheng said, "I don't have internal energy. I just have a body that is different from ordinary people and know some martial arts. I am not a cultivator."
Ye Wensheng didn't completely believe Ye Cheng's words: "Did you offend the sects on the mountain?"
I can use the Ye family's resources to help you.
Ye Cheng stiffly refused, saying, "No need, I don't want to owe the Ye family anything."
I appreciate it if you can provide me with information.
However, I warn you, if you rashly interfere in the affairs of Hedong City, I will definitely hate you!
I know what your purpose is in contacting me first.
If you want to win my favor, listen to me.
Ye Wensheng fell silent.
Ye Cheng added, "It's late, get some rest."
After saying that, Ye Cheng hung up the phone.
Ye Wensheng stared at his phone screen, tears streaming down his face: "He cares about me, he cares about me..."
He saw hope in breaking the ice between himself and his biological son.
Ye Cheng put his phone in his pocket, tiptoed to the living room on the first floor, sat down on the sofa, and waited quietly.
A moment later, Ling Suqiu came down from the second floor and sat down opposite Ye Cheng: "What do you want to tell me?"
Ye Cheng looked at Ling Suqiu quietly and said, "That man in black couldn't stand the torture of my flying needles and told me a lot of things."
For example, he comes from the secretive Iron Blade Sect.
Director Ling comes from the Flying Swallow Sect.
The one from the Cheng Group comes from the Peach Blossom Sect.
Ling Suqiu's pupils contracted slightly, her surface calm, but her heart was already churning with turmoil.
"You hinted that I should come out just to tell me this?"
Ye Cheng smiled slightly: "What's the point of just saying this?"
I'm here to verify something with Director Ling.
Ling Suqiu calmly looked at Ye Cheng: "What do you want to verify?"
Ye Cheng bluntly asked, "If Shen Qingrou became the chairperson of the Shen Group, would you try to kill her?"
Ling Suqiu said, "I raised her from a young age. Even if she's not my biological daughter, I've developed feelings for her. How could I possibly kill my daughter?"
Besides, now that Qingrou is the chairperson, why would I kill her?
Ye Cheng sneered, "Director Ling, that's not very meaningful."
Although you hid it well, I could still see your fear of Shen Qingrou.
Ling Suqiu wouldn't admit it easily. She knew the difference in martial arts skills between herself and Ye Cheng, and if she did, she would only be at Ye Cheng's mercy.
"Are you misunderstanding something? Although Qingrou isn't my biological daughter, she's better than my own."
Even if she becomes the chairperson, it won't affect me much.
"But you, are you trying to sow discord between us to achieve your ulterior motives?"
Ye Cheng chuckled coldly: "If you suspected me like this from the beginning, it would indeed be difficult for me to defend myself."
Now that I and the Shen Group have been through so much, you're still turning around and biting me. Are you trying to undermine us?
"Director Ling, could you try a different approach?"
Ling Suqiu remained calm: "You're the one who's desperate and will do the opposite of what you're supposed to do."
They know controlling the Shen Group isn't so easy, so they're trying to blackmail me, aren't they?
In order to have a better conversation, Ye Cheng first showed his sincerity: "Director Ling, is there some misunderstanding? I didn't mean to blackmail you by inviting you out."
I just wanted to defuse the threat you posed to Shen Qingrou.
How can we unite against external forces if internal conflicts are not resolved?
The Chen Group has already made its move; I don't want to face a situation of internal and external troubles.
Ling Suqiu said, "The Chen Group is targeting you. What does it have to do with the Shen Group?"
Ye Cheng said, "So Director Ling wants to be complacent and unwilling to make progress, and give Feiyan Sect an explanation?"
The promise was indeed tempting for Ling Suqiu, but only if she could control Ye Cheng.
"The Flying Swallow Sect is satisfied with its current economic situation, so there is no need for me to take any risks."
"is it?
I'm sure Director Ling is more aware of the current situation of the Chen Group than I am.
If you miss this opportunity to advance further because of your lack of honesty, and Feiyanmen finds out, I'm afraid Director Ling will have a hard time explaining it.
After all, those who can be sent down the mountain are the most mediocre disciples in the sect.
He probably doesn't have much status within the sect.
Merit may not be rewarded, but wrongdoing will certainly be punished.
"Director Ling, you don't want to be punished by the sect, do you?"
These words struck at Ling Suqiu's weak point; she couldn't understand how Ye Cheng knew so much.
"Who exactly are you? Which sect on the mountain are you from? What is your purpose in coming to the Shen Group?"
Ye Cheng deliberately threatened, "You are not qualified to know my identity."
Let me put it this way: cooperating with me is your only way out.
Of course, I meant no harm.
I'm talking to you today because I've realized you pose a threat to Shen Qingrou's life.
Actually, I don't care about the Shen Group; I only care about Shen Qingrou's life.
"We've already put things so bluntly, is Director Ling still unwilling to cooperate?"
Ling Suqiu said coldly, "What do you want me to cooperate with? Do you want me to say that I will kill my daughter?"
You've been trying to get me to admit it, but what are your true intentions?
Ye Cheng said, "If you are not honest with me, how can I cooperate sincerely with you?"
Ling Suqiu questioned, "Why should I be honest with you? Are we that close?"
Ye Chengdao: "We're really not familiar with each other."
Okay then, if you need enough evidence, I'll analyze it for you one by one.
Shen Qingrou isn't your biological daughter after all. If she becomes the chairperson, there are too many uncertainties.
If any sect from the mountains were to come and steal our business, even the Flying Swallow Sect would likely be helpless.
This reason alone is enough to shut up the Flying Swallow Sect.
Don't say that this situation won't happen; the conflicts between sects can be quite intense.
Some sects have been waiting for just this opportunity.
Ye Cheng was not familiar with the situation between the sects on the mountain; what he said was merely his speculation.
But Ling Suqiu heard it differently, feeling that Ye Cheng knew everything about the situation between the sects on the mountain.
"The most important thing is that you have a son."
You've given so much to the Shen Group over the years, only to have it all benefit someone else in the end.
Would you be willing to do this for your son's sake?
If it weren't for the strict rules in the capital and the mountains, you probably would have killed Shen Qingrou or Shen Qianfeng long ago.
I don't want to assume malicious intent about others.
However, people can sometimes become ruthless and unscrupulous when faced with profit.
Should I remind Director Ling of something? The night Shen Qingrou and Chen Zhaoyi were racing, a car suddenly crashed into them.
If I hadn't been in the car, Shen Qingrou would probably be in grave danger.
I've already investigated who did this, but I didn't want to escalate the situation too much, so I gave Director Ling a chance.
