The accident before, you could still imagine that it had a resolute person behind the arrangement, so much so that they could create a false appearance of a great amount of ultra-rank powerhouses taking action, but right now the old fellows who had followed them for a lifetime had fallen. They were all genuine first class peak powerhouses. Without the Seven Lotus old ancestors or even Ye Hongchen personally taking action, how would they have perished so straightforwardly, without a single person having a narrow lucky escape!?

Apparently, the Ye Family wanted to persist in implementing their so-called “time of breaking heaven”, with no margin for error!

Since they had to fight sooner or later, Ye Hongchen had given them a good reason. In that case, then start the war!

We didn’t want to rush indiscriminately into battle, didn’t want unnecessary losses, but right now, indeed you have started a fight with the five regions together!

Just by taking advantage of this time when your Ye Family isn’t well prepared, the five regions will cooperate to get rid of Heaven’s Leaf!

The five regions making a move is just like the winds of the tiger or the clouds of the dragon.

The Ye Family forces naturally were also making emergency war preparations. Right now, sincere speech had no use. After the five regions Sky Kings’ information organization personnel were slaughtered and the important government figures that came to negotiate had all fallen, the situation was already incapable of being resolved with words.

But before this, who would have thought that without still having a truly formed Ye Family force, they had hurriedly come into contact with the five regions! This simply was just a tragic scene!

Right now the Ye Family forces were still only a Jianghu organization, can you deny that?!

In this sort of time period, coming into contact with the Five Great Sky Kings’ elite main forces was simply courting death!

Right now, how could Ye Yunduan still have the inclination to look for trouble with Ye Xiao?

Right now, he was at the stage of being hard pressed.

On the one hand, he was arranging his manpower and gathering a great amount of supplies, and on the other he was also calling on all of the talents of their side, organizing the Ye Family forces into teams to train and prepare to welcome the coming war…

Everyone on the side of the Ye Family forces were scrambling like flying chickens and jumping dogs!

Only, just now remembering to drill the troops at this sort of time, was unavoidably somewhat late…

…

Not to mention the Seven Lotus Families’ seven old gentlemen, just all of the talents coming out of the Ye Family saw Ye Yunduan as the same sort of freak. You let a good several years pass and, this whole time, you never thought to drill the troops?

Why on earth did you recruit so many people like this?

Again taking a step back… don’t you know what the most important matter of this time’s coming out is!?

All day long, shouting “time of breaking heaven, time of breaking heaven”, you still didn’t train the soldiers. How are you going to fight a battle? Didn’t you know who you had to confront in the end? On one side the Sky Kings, on the other the Sky King’s forces, you couldn’t exactly simply run to the Jianghu and occupy a base of operations…

Everyone was thinking this, and some people even more straightforwardly came and said it out directly.

This comparatively fierce and impulsive person was precisely one of the Ye Family’s elder talents. With an age that could only be compared to Old Man Guan’s class of people or perhaps even older, his quality was like that of ginger or cinnamon: the older it is, the spicier it gets. With a fully unsatisfied expression, he was staring at Ye Yunduan. “Clearly you knew that the old ancestor’s original intention upon appearing back in the earth domain was to take over the world, why didn’t you train troops early? Right now you’re just starting? You… you know that our Ye Family… you know you yourself… you… just what on earth did you eat in the end?”

Ye Yunduan was nearly insane. Besides being humiliated from the bottom of his heart, he still felt a grievance that was as large as the sky.

“How could we not know what the ultimate target of our Ye Family’s arrival was? Even more, I understand what we came out for, but everything has to have a process… who could think that this matter would progress so fast?”

Ye Yunduan felt that he was terribly wronged. “I still haven’t gotten everything related to the Jianghu to a neat and tidy finish, right? Where would I know that the final ultimate big battle would erupt in this way? This is just like the student of a scholar who had just finished the exams having to take the top grade imperial exam at once. Even a top scorer wouldn’t be able to do it in time! Even someone who has a high talent and also inside information wouldn’t have enough time!”

“Before, we decided that our first target was to unify the Limitless Ocean, and that we would wait firmly until we achieved that. Afterwards, we would precisely structure our power, feed the weapons and sharpen the horses (TLN: not sure if this is intentionally backwards), and campaign across the world… All of this has a process! This time, the matter has actually developed too quickly, but also touching, just directly coming into contact with all five regions, this is simply just a joke, a joke that isn’t funny at all…”

That elder’s complexion looked even worse. “Joke? You actually would sum up everything before your eyes as a joke? According to the way you said this, you don’t have even the slightest bit of responsibility? I ccan only say that what you just said is precisely the joke, because what you thought was too pretty. First unify the Limitless Ocean, after that uniting all the forces, then forging an elite band of troops, then finish transforming into an incomparably grand lion and having a decisive battle for the world… You beat this scheme out, pow pow, could it be that you never thought where the time and the process of all of this came from?”

“You think that the Five Great Sky Kings are each and every one an idiot?! You unifying the Limitless Ocean, what sort of idea were you wishing for!? That they would wait for you to be completely ready again before starting war with you? From the ancient times until now, have you seen this kind of foolish leader? Not just this generation of Sky Kings, Their Majesties, even if it was a common Jianghu person, with this kind of cleverness how would they not take preventative measures? Would they really wait for you to train up all your troops, wait for you to have absolute certain victory in your grasp, and then determine it all with a desperate struggle to the death? And you were just stepping in place, not doing anything? They would let you do what you liked to your heart’s content?!”

The more this elder said, the angrier he got. With an angry roar, he said, “Ye Yunduan, do you think that you’re an idiot? You think everyone in the world, especially the Five Great Sky Kings and you, are all the same kind of idiot?”

“Right now, this old man has done no more than point a few words out to you, and you unexpectedly still feel wronged?”

“You already shit in your pants just thinking that you were over a latrine, how ridiculous is this?!”

“Right now you still feel that it has no relation with you, that you completely don’t have any responsibility!?”

This elder was spitting in anger. “Ye Yunduan! You think that since you’re called Young Master Yunduan, you are precisely someone yun duan (high in the clouds)? You think boasting words can cover up your own mediocrity? I really don’t know that you haven’t developed brains. The inside of your brains have developed mold! You unexpectedly think that the Five Great Sky Kings are all morons! I spit at you, pei!”

Ye Yunduan, dejected and depressed, was unexpectedly not even allowed to retort.

The five sides great forces were still at the stage of pledging to go to battle before their troops, but on this side in the family, astonishingly internal strife had already appeared. Furthermore, everyone saw how the current situation came about, meaning that the owner of the Ye Family forces, Ye Yunduan, would find it hard to escape his blame!

This one big battle erupted suddenly, with the trouble being in their own backyard, this is fact. However, the Ye Family’s elder’s one point similarly was without a mistake: could it be that the Five Great Sky Kings would have to wait until you were fully fledged to start the battle?

If things really developed to that stage, what did that say about the five Sky Kings? That simply says that they are five stupid pigs!

If the five region Sky Kings had lacked such foresight up until now, how could they have stood straight atop the peak of the Human Realm Upon Heavens for countless years?

Ever since Ye Yunduan had entered the world, apart from the time that he was being conspired against by Ye Changqing, the time that he was in power was already not lacking. However, within that interval, he had never cultivated battle troops, had never made preparations for the future big battle! Indeed, this is a big unforgivable mistake!

Old Man Guan, who was participating in the banquet, watched the Ye Family turn into a quarreling bunch. He glanced over at Old Man Qin and the rest, and all he saw inside his counterparts’ eyes was a powerless disappointment.

With just this kind of basis and strategy, you still had vain delusions of comparing yourself with Ye Xiao?

Where did your self-confidence come from?
