"What?"
Upon hearing Ye Xiu's admission, the Long Family Manor erupted into turmoil. Aside from the Clan Leader and Nangong Yue's group of seven, the same question popped into the minds of everyone else from the Long Family and the thirteen external families.
Why? Ye Liangchen was the man most admired by the Clan Leader and an ally of the Long Family. Why would he incite the thirteen external families to betray them?
"Why?" the Long Family's fifth-in-command asked as he and his second, third, and fourth brothers approached. "Ye Liangchen, why did you do this?"
"Because he is Ye Xiu!" the Clan Leader declared before anyone else could speak.
A wave of shock swept through the Long Family Manor. Those who were injured and sitting or lying on the ground were so startled by the Clan Leader's words that they scrambled to their feet. Even the half-dead, mummy-like Long Yifei shot upright.
What? Ye Liangchen is Ye Xiu?
Nangong Yue and her six companions were utterly dumbfounded.
