Chapter 144: Severing Ties, A Thorny Situation

In the small courtyard, Meng Changhe watched the scene of Ye Lang and the sword stream, and realized that the question he had asked was completely unnecessary!

Although he was still shocked and puzzled, he completely believed that Ye Lang was the mysterious expert who had saved the Meng Family.

After all, these swords were clearly listening to him.

The other Meng Family members present no longer had any doubts.

However, while they were shocked, they were also a little uneasy.

After all… in their memories, they hadn’t been very kind to Ye Lang before!

Only Meng Qingqing’s eyes, as she looked at Ye Lang, revealed a brilliance she had never shown before!

She admired the strong, which was why she looked down on the Ye Lang in her memories. Although she had the title of his wife, she had never treated him as her husband!

But now, Ye Lang could control these strange and powerful swords without a sound!

He had saved them at the moment of the Meng Family’s destruction, before she was humiliated!

She couldn’t even see through his cultivation level!

There was no doubt that this Ye Lang had aroused her strong interest!

“Ye, Ye Lang, thank you for your help!”

“About what happened before… I hope you won’t blame the Meng Family.”

At this moment, Meng Changhe also reacted and stepped forward slightly, speaking.

“Haha.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve already helped you. I won’t do anything to you.”

Ye Lang glanced at him, saw his worry, and spoke indifferently.

To Ye Lang, the Meng Family’s Live-in Son-in-Law was just an identity brought by the system, and it was only a superficial one.

He himself had not actually suffered any humiliation in the Meng Family; it was all just memories arranged by the system.

So although he couldn’t say he had any favorability towards the Meng Family, he didn’t have any hatred either.

Everything he did was just to complete the identity mission.

“That’s good, that’s good.”

Hearing this, Meng Changhe couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief.

The other Meng Family members behind him also showed a hint of relief.

They felt a bit more grateful towards Ye Lang.

Not only did he save their lives, but he also didn’t pursue their previous taunts and insults!

“Ye Lang, what is your current cultivation level?”

At this time, Meng Qingqing stepped out from behind Meng Changhe, looked at Ye Lang with bright eyes, and asked.

“You don’t need to know that.”

Hearing this, Ye Lang shook his head directly, refusing to answer.

He was joking. He used the Breath Concealment Technique because he didn’t want people to see his cultivation level.

If it got out, it might cause trouble for his Dark Night Wolf Emperor identity!

How could he possibly tell Meng Qingqing?

Hearing this, Meng Qingqing couldn’t help but clench her teeth slightly and say:

“Ye Lang… we are husband and wife, you won’t even tell me your cultivation level?”

As soon as these words came out, Meng Changhe and the others unconsciously turned their gazes to Ye Lang.

Their eyes carried a hint of fervor.

“That’s right, that’s right.”

“Ye Lang, you are our Meng Family’s esteemed son-in-law!”

Meng Changhe’s face became even more enthusiastic as he spoke flatteringly.

“Husband and wife?”

Hearing this, Ye Lang couldn’t help but feel like laughing.

The Meng Family really wanted good things. They still wanted him to continue being a live-in son-in-law in the Meng Family!

Immediately, Ye Lang walked in front of them, forced a smile, and slowly said:

“If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten. I haven’t clarified our relationship with you yet.”

“Back then, I chose to stay in the Meng Family because your Meng Family Ancestor had shown me kindness. This time, your Meng Family faced annihilation, and I protected you from harm.”

“I will also go and settle things with those families in the Imperial Capital.”

“After this, I and your Meng Family will be even. As for me and Meng Qingqing, there was never a real husband and wife relationship, and there will be no relationship in the future.”

Since the identity system had arranged that memory, Ye Lang naturally spoke according to the memory.

And at this moment, after Ye Lang finished speaking, the enthusiasm on the faces of Meng Changhe and the rest of the Meng Family instantly froze.

Ye Lang… Did this mean he was divorcing Meng Qingqing and severing ties with their Meng Family?

And… from his words, it seemed that he had a great background?

Beside Meng Changhe, Meng Qingqing felt a sudden sense of loss upon hearing this.

She had just developed a strong curiosity towards Ye Lang and even actively said that she and Ye Lang were husband and wife.

This was absolutely impossible in the past!

But unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Ye Lang divorced her?

At this time, Meng Changhe came back to his senses, swallowed his saliva, and said tremblingly: “Ye Lang… we were wrong before, will you reconsider?”

“No need, there’s nothing to reconsider about this matter.”

Ye Lang shook his head and replied decisively, then asked again:

“By the way, do you know the specific origins of those few Imperial Capital dandies?”

The Meng Family’s crisis hadn’t been completely resolved yet, because those dandies and experts from the Imperial Capital had died in the Meng Family.

The families behind them would definitely not let it go.

“This…”

“Those few are backed by powerful clans in the Imperial Capital, and there are many Great Emperor Realm experts in their families!”

“Even… that Zhang Family seems to be related to the royal clan.”

Hearing this, Meng Changhe could only reply truthfully.

Thinking of those families in the Imperial Capital, his tone couldn’t help but carry a deep worry.

The conversation between the two brought the other Meng Family members back to their senses from Ye Lang’s previous words.

Their faces became panicked, and their eyes looked at Ye Lang with expectation.

Now, the only one who could protect their Meng Family was Ye Lang.

“If it’s just powerful clans, it’s fine… but if it’s related to the royal clan, it’s a bit thorny.”

Hearing this, Ye Lang’s thoughts couldn’t help but change slightly.

The Tianfeng City he was currently in was a remote small city located within the Great Qian Dynasty!

That royal clan was naturally the Great Qian royal clan!

And the Great Qian royal clan was one of the most powerful forces in the Zhenwu Continent, and even had Saints!

In Ye Lang’s memory, he was injured by a Saint of the Great Qian royal clan, which caused his cultivation to plummet!

Then he fled to Tianfeng City and became the Meng Family’s Live-in Son-in-Law.

With Ye Lang’s current strength, if he encountered a force related to the Great Qian royal clan…

He might not be a match for them!

“There’s no other way, I can only activate the Dark Night Wolf Emperor identity.”

After pondering for a moment, Ye Lang made a decision.

The Dark Wolf organization had numerous assassins, and Great Emperor Realm assassins were like clouds. As long as he could completely control them, dealing with a family that was only slightly related to the Great Qian royal clan…

Shouldn’t be a big problem.

In the small courtyard, Meng Changhe and the others saw Ye Lang fall silent and didn’t dare to make a sound for a while.

“Don’t run around these days.”

“Since I said I would repay the favor, I will handle this matter.”

Ye Lang glanced at them and said.

Immediately, he slightly opened the ring finger of his right hand.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

Countless white bone long swords suddenly appeared above the small courtyard!

They respectfully lowered their blades towards Ye Lang!

“Jian Que, you take the Sword Bones that have condensed their true bodies and guard around the Meng Family.”

“The rest of the Sword Bones, go hide hundreds of miles away from Tianfeng City in all directions, and report back immediately if there are any changes.”

Ye Lang waved his hand and instructed.

The next moment, these Sword Bones turned into sword lights and disappeared.

This scene made the Meng Family gasp in shock!

They didn’t know the division of the Sword Bones’ strength. Seeing that Ye Lang actually had so many Sword Bones, they couldn’t help but be extremely shocked!
