Chapter 38: Ants
Ye Tao has always been resentful about this matter. He believes that the so-called crisis back then was fabricated by Ye Chengzong in order to deceive him into selling his shares. This way, Ye Chengzong himself would become the company’s largest founder and receive more dividends. He has also instilled this concept into his son, Ye Zhen, making him hate Ye Chengzong to the bone and believe that the Ye family has deprived them of their originally prosperous life, forcing them to live a tight and difficult life.
Just like Ye Xuan, Ye Zhen awakened an A-class ability, the Heart of the Earth, during this year’s college entrance examination. When he stands on the ground, his power is endless. He has great potential and a strong overall ability, being able to manipulate the earth and create earth clones, among other things.
Ye Zhen, brainwashed by his own father, believes that Ye Chengzong has embezzled the wealth that should have belonged to their family. Therefore, after awakening his ability, he has been targeting the Ye family, pressuring Ye Chengzong to hand over the wealth that should have belonged to them, and even resorting to violence against the Ye family members several times.
Ye Xue, in order to ensure the safety of her family, married Zhou Yang and hoped to find protection, but ended up sacrificing herself.
Later on, although Ye Zhen did not directly harm the Ye Xuan family, he targeted them in various ways and seized the assets of the Ye family, leaving Ye Xuan’s parents with nothing. In the end, because the family lived in an old house in the outskirts far from the city, they were attacked and killed by wild beasts. It can be said that Ye Zhen is the main culprit behind the tragedy of the Ye Xuan family.
However, Ye Xuan did not deal with Ye Zhen like he did with Zhou Yang. Ye Zhen is indeed hateful, but even more hateful is Ye Zhen’s father, Ye Tao. If Ye Xuan secretly dealt with Ye Zhen like he did with Zhou Yang, what would be the point? Ye Tao might be saddened, but he wouldn’t regret it. But if Ye Zhen, influenced by the hatred instilled by Ye Tao, ruins his own life and falls from the rising path into the abyss, that would be the most ruthless punishment for Ye Tao!
Finally, the car stopped at the entrance of the villa. At the entrance, a middle school student stood, blocking the entrance. This person was Ye Zhen.
Ye Chengzong opened the car window and said, “Ye Zhen, why are you here? Where’s your father?”
Ye Zhen glared fiercely at Ye Chengzong and said, “My father didn’t come. I’m here today to collect some interest from you. If it weren’t for you, our family wouldn’t be living like this.”
Ye Chengzong’s face changed slightly and he said, “Did your father say something nonsense again? The matter back then was his fault. I, Ye Chengzong, have done nothing to be ashamed of.”
Ye Zhen angrily said, “Ashamed? You have no conscience!”
As Ye Zhen spoke, he took a step forward and kicked the front of Ye Chengzong’s car.
With the power of the Earth covering his feet, not only was the strength extremely high, but the force was also great. The entire car shook violently and moved back more than half a meter. Ye Chengzong and Lin Qiaozhu were both shocked, but fortunately, they were wearing seat belts and didn’t suffer any injuries.
Then, Ye Zhen said again, “Ye old dog, thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west. From today onwards, our positions have been reversed. I will make you suffer!”
At this moment, Ye Xuan finally opened the car door and got out of the car. He looked at Ye Zhen and said, “Suffer? Ye Zhen, has our family offended you? Do you really want to fight us to the death?”
Ye Zhen coldly said, “Offended? That’s just your own assumption! Even if there’s no offense, so what? I am an awakened, an A-class awakened. In front of me, you are all just ants. If one person steps on an ant, does the ant apologize?”
Ye Zhen said a line similar to what Loki said to Nick Fury in Marvel. In his past life, Ye Zhen also said this line, and after saying it, he beat up Ye Xuan, threatened Ye Chengzong, and destroyed the car’s dash cam before leaving in a cool manner.
But in this life, the development of this matter will be completely different. Now, Ye Xuan has also awakened his abilities, the A-class Indestructible Body and the Heart of the Earth, which are abilities of the same level as Ye Zhen’s. Ye Xuan’s ability development is also quite low, but combined with his rich combat experience from his past life and his iron will, he also has a pig-killing knife. Dealing with Ye Zhen is not difficult at all.
As for the consequences of this matter, Ye Xuan is not worried at all. With Ye Zhen’s statement that “one person steps on an ant, does the ant apologize,” Ye Xuan can completely defend himself and counterattack without limit. Even if he kills Ye Zhen on the spot, there will be no consequences. Now that the awakened have just appeared and their ability development is still very low, they don’t have much power yet, but they already consider themselves superior to ordinary people and even treat ordinary people’s lives as ants.
With Ye Zhen’s statement as evidence, Ye Xuan can completely defend himself and counterattack without limit. Even if he kills Ye Zhen on the spot, the law will ultimately be on Ye Xuan’s side. Only in this way can the peaceful coexistence between ordinary people and the awakened be ensured, rather than being in a hostile relationship.
After Ye Zhen said that line, Ye Xuan knew that the groundwork had been laid enough. He looked coldly at Ye Zhen and said, “Do you think we ordinary people are ants?”
“So what if we are? Lie down for me!”
As Ye Zhen spoke, he rushed towards Ye Xuan and threw a punch at his chest.
Ye Xuan crossed his arms in front of him and blocked Ye Zhen’s attack. However, since Ye Zhen was the attacker and Ye Xuan was on the defensive, plus Ye Xuan’s ability leaned towards defense, Ye Xuan took two steps back, but Ye Zhen felt a tingling sensation in his fist.
At this moment, Ye Xuan’s parents were very worried. They opened their seat belts and got out of the car, asking, “Son, are you okay?”
Ye Xuan calmly waved his hand and said, “I’m fine.”
Ye Zhen immediately became angry and said, “You’re fine? Then I’ll make sure you’re not!”
Ye Xuan ignored Ye Zhen and opened the trunk of the car, pretending to take something out. In fact, he took out the Cold Iron pig-slaughtering knife from the system space and walked towards Ye Zhen with the knife in his hand.
Ye Zhen immediately looked disdainful and said, “You think you can deal with me with a knife? Even with a knife, you’re still an ant!”
As Ye Zhen spoke, a yellow light flashed in his hand as he slapped towards Ye Xuan’s kitchen knife.
