"What did you say?" The elders exclaimed in disbelief, their voices rising.

When Ye Chen said those words, he showed a kind of arrogance, which deeply stimulated the group of elders.

Finding a bunch of wives and still daring to be so haughty and imposing—is there no rule of law anymore?!

"We are on different levels, have different understandings, so no matter how much we talk, it's useless!" Ye Chen looked at the group of elders without any trace of stage fright and spoke calmly.

"Are you disdainful of talking to us old folks?" the elders said angrily.

They all knew Ye Chen was extraordinary, that he could easily slay Saints, almost reaching a Transcendent level!

But who were these elders? Despite giving up their cultivations, their identities were too frightening!

Li Kuishou and his four companions were founding fathers, Yang Shouye and his three were military leaders, definitely the most powerful and influential figures in Huaxia!

Even if Ye Chen had towering skills, nearing godhood, he was still a youngster!

Faced with such major figures, the fact that Ye Chen dared to disdain speech left the elders unable to accept it.

"It's not disdain, but unwillingness!" Ye Chen shook his head. "You are all concerned with national affairs, worthy of being great heroes, but you are still far from my level!"

"So, some things I don't want to speak about, and even if I did, you wouldn't understand!"

Ye Chen had already comprehended the epic and became a great malefic, possessing the power to destroy realms, making even the Heavenly Dao have to take notice!

The elders are esteemed and revered, but they are different from him, on another plane!

"Fine then!" He Shanhe said in anger and amusement. "I, He Shanhe, have lived a life of war and valiance, even those from ancient families have to honor me as an elder, and now I'm despised by a kid like you!"

"On the surface, you are unwilling to explain, but in reality, you look down on us!"

"I never thought we, who have spent our lives in military service, would be belittled by you!"

Although these old men did not have high cultivation, their status was paramount!

If a special situation arose, even a Saint would have to personally protect these elders in front of him.

Therefore, even if Ji Dahai brought Saints to attack, the elders would remain unafraid because their contributions were immense!

While their strength may not compare to the Saints, their accomplishments surpass them!

For Ye Chen, a younger generation, to boast and say enigmatic things in front of them—how could they endure it?

"Elders, please calm down. I have only respect for you, not disdain or contempt—you've misunderstood!"

Seeing the elders so angry that their eyes were about to catch fire, Ye Chen could only smile wryly.

The reason Ye Chen was unwilling to elaborate was that he was too high up; even if he explained, they might not comprehend.

But Ye Chen did not expect that his approach would cause such a misunderstanding!

The elders mistook his calm demeanor for contempt!

"Misunderstanding, my foot!" Kun Wuchang's temper flared up again. "You merely see us as old and useless, so you look down on us!"

The elders had glorious pasts and could be considered national heroes, reaching the pinnacle of power!

Yet heroes have their sorrows, namely the fear of aging!

The world won't allow a hero to grow old!

Once a hero turns white-haired, they're no longer a hero, but a bear!

Hence, the elders had strong self-esteem, couldn't take any blows, and refused to accept the fact of aging!

Ye Chen's rebelliousness was a fact, yet he wouldn't heed their advice, essentially belittling them, looking down on these old folks!

Therefore, the group of elders was very angry, feeling outraged that a mere youngster would look down on them—isn't that intolerable!

"You old men are really..." Ye Chen was speechless.

This group of old men was just too individualistic, each with a stubborn attitude, flying into a rage at the slightest thing—weren't they afraid of getting themselves angry?

"Ye Chen, you've truly infuriated this old man—believe it or not, I'll have you arrested and then find some charge to put you in prison for the rest of your life!"

Wen Xiangyou was a refined elder, never hurried or impatient in anything. Yet Ye Chen's rebelliousness and the disregard he revealed forced this honest man to the point of considering abusing his power.

"Old man, don't scare me!" Ye Chen laughed. "The Earth can't even contain me, and you want to arrest me and have me serve time in prison?"

"..."

The old men were stunned. They were used to being high and mighty, controlling people's lives, and Ye Chen told a plain truth that they truly couldn't accept.

Exactly!

The Earth couldn't contain Ye Chen; how could they capture Ye Chen and have him serve prison time?

"Ye Chen, don't get complacent!" Li Kuishou roared in a low voice. "The foundation of Huaxia runs deep—it's not just modern armies, there's also the powerful Dragon Group, we can handle you!"

The Dragon Group is Huaxia's official organization, teeming with martial experts; it's Huaxia's foremost blade, intimidating the world!

"Elder, perhaps you don't know yet, but my daughter's mother is the Dragon Leader!" Ye Chen looked at the elders, smiling slyly. "Yun Zheyue has led the Dragon Group for years, her authority deeply rooted—she's my lawful wife, would the Dragon Group dare mess with me?"

Yun Zheyue, Yun Xianghan, Lin Ying are all members of the Dragon Group, occupying important positions!

So, the Dragon Group is nearly Ye Chen's organization—how could it pose a threat to him?

"You, you..." Li Kuishou pointed at Ye Chen, too angry to speak, his fingers trembling violently.

"Where are the Huaxia Nine Souls!" Wen Xiangyou shouted. "The Huaxia Nine Souls are all Saints, they've guarded Huaxia for countless years, can't they handle you?"

As founders of Huaxia, these elders are greatly respected, fully aware of Huaxia's immense strength.

The Dragon Squad couldn't handle Ye Chen, but there's still the Huaxia Nine Souls!

The Nine Souls are all immensely powerful Saints, even the ancient noble families respect them. They can't believe Ye Chen could still roam free.

"Old man, do I have a grudge against you?" Ye Chen asked helplessly.

"No!" Wen Xiangyou replied.

"Then why are you targeting me, even wanting the Nine Souls to suppress me?" Ye Chen asked.

"I just don't like you!" Wen Xiangyou said.

"..."

In the eyes of these elders, Ye Chen is young and talented, but such outstanding achievements inevitably make him arrogant!

Moreover, Ye Chen does not respect the elderly and the young, almost ignoring them, which makes the elders quite displeased.

However, the elders' retribution makes Ye Chen feel very innocent.

Isn't he just a bit younger, a bit more handsome, a bit richer, with a few more wives? Is there a need to suppress like this?

Looking at the elders in front of him, Ye Chen felt troubled and even a little angry.

He respects the elders greatly because they are pioneers with outstanding achievements!

But the elders he respects, without distinguishing right from wrong, pressure him like he did something wrong... This is intolerable for Ye Chen.

You all better not have granddaughters, if you do, they better not be pretty, otherwise I would ruin them all! Ye Chen thought viciously to himself, looking at the group of elders.

"Ye Chen, since you're here today, come over to the Xu Family, everyone is waiting for you!" Xu Wuming suddenly grabbed Ye Chen, refusing to let go.

"Grandpa, I'm busy!" Ye Chen smiled awkwardly, indicating he was very busy.

"What's more important than getting a wife?" Xu Wuming said. "Qingling's parents talk about you every day, just hoping you'll come over for a meal!"

"Uh." Ye Chen was momentarily speechless, the enthusiasm of the elders was hard to decline.

"Ye Chen!" Qin WuMing suddenly shouted. "I know you have many women, even children, but the Qin Family doesn't care! As long as you're good to my granddaughter, the Qin Family will still consider you a son-in-law!"

"However, Qin Lan and Qin Ying have been ruined by you. At least come home with me once to settle your engagement so that your in-laws can be at ease!"

Ye Chen sees he's in a difficult position, being recognized by two families as their son-in-law!

However, the 'ugly daughter-in-law' ultimately has to meet her in-laws, Ye Chen must visit home once, otherwise, both families will be uneasy.

But then here's the problem, Ye Chen is the son-in-law of two families, which one should he go to first?

The order of visiting feels significant to Xu Wuming and Qin WuMing, as it represents the granddaughter's status in Ye Chen's mind!

"I..." Ye Chen doesn't want to go anywhere, but before he can speak, he's interrupted.

"Silence!"

Kun Wuchang walked over with a fierce aura, coming to stir up trouble again.

"I can't make you understand, can I?" Kun Wuchang was furious. "Ye Chen doesn't follow the rules, created so much trouble, he can't go anywhere, he must be punished!"

"..."

Xu Wuming and Qin WuMing were stunned, then a wave of anger rose within them, dammit, when does this end!

Ye Chen is their families' son-in-law, they haven't even expressed their views, what's with these elders?

"What did I do wrong?"

As the two big shots were displeased, Ye Chen let out a cold laugh, starting his counterattack.

"You tarnished the purity of women, isn't that wrongdoing?" Wen Xiangyou said angrily.

"We fell in love freely and were willing to be together, how is this wrongdoing?" Ye Chen retorted.

"Nonsense!" He Shanhe also targeted him. "They are all outstanding women, how could they fall with you, you must have coerced them!" In the eyes of these elders, Ye Chen was no different than a demon!

"Qingling, did I coerce you?" Ye Chen asked Xu Qingling in front of everyone.

"No!" Xu Qingling shook her head, stating firmly.

"Did I coerce them?" Ye Chen asked again.

"No!" Xu Qingling shook her head once more.

Ye Chen and they were truly in love, cherished each other, and got along so happily, how could there be any coercion?

At this moment, not only were Xu Wuming and Qin WuMing angry, even Xu Qingling was a bit mad, these elders were really meddling!

"You, you, you always deceive women!" Wen Xiangyou accused Ye Chen.

"How did I deceive?" Ye Chen replied unhappily.

The elders hold high positions, Ye Chen didn't act arrogant, always showing respect!

However, his continued concessions only met with suspicion, which made Ye Chen uncomfortable and somewhat angry.
