Sister Si was the first to see Ye Tiancheng's haggard appearance and asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing really, just that a person's mood is rather complicated!" His face was unpleasant, giving the impression of being passive.
The hidden things were difficult to express in words.
"I know!" Sister Lin laughed from the side, "It must be because of some reason that your head is acting up."
"If that's how you see it, then I'll just pretend I said nothing."
If a person has too many superfluous words, then frankly, they are purely seeking death.
Regardless of the future or the present, all these changes stem from one's own heart.
Since this was the case, there was no need for his five sisters to worry about him. Thinking of this, the fellow actually started to laugh happily.
He laughed quite eerily.
That eerie laugh made people feel a sense of awe.
"If all circumstances develop according to one's own thoughts, then problems will not be problems, and everything will become simple. Unfortunately, none of this will come to fruition. You should understand." As Sister Si spoke, her expression was filled with worry, her eyes were like lost pearls, looking at Ye Tiancheng.
In such a situation, everyone's mood was very bad, especially his eyes, which were filled with melancholy.
"Are you worried about the safety of us women if you go to another continent?"
Sister Si said with a smile.
Seeing such a smile, Ye Tiancheng had already developed a sense of misunderstanding in his heart.
This feeling could not be taken seriously at the moment, nor could it be considered important.
"It seems to be quite misleading." The system mocked Ye Tiancheng, thinking he was truly a fool. In front of women, one should never explain. No matter how much you explain, it's useless. The only useful thing is to quickly figure out how to get to the cultivation continent.
Now, he felt as if he couldn't let go.
Seeing his expression, everyone understood and said no more.
"Bastard!" At this moment, an angry roar suddenly came from outside.
A burly man stood opposite Ye Tiancheng, his face full of anger. What did he want to do? Since you are here, it is only natural to have a confrontation. He had traveled all this way, solely to seek justice for his son.
Because his son was already dead. During the battle to attack Caishi City...
"Old sir, who are you? Why are you looking for me?"
Facing this situation, he had only one way: to appease his heart.
"What else can be done? It's all your fault, you bastards, for causing trouble for me. Don't you think you should bear the primary responsibility? You're saying so much to me now, don't you think it's too late to regret it?"
Because the old man had accepted evil thoughts, he himself had become more evil and no longer believed that the world could be beautiful. Ye Tiancheng appeared even more ferocious. Why was this so? It was entirely because he was unwilling to see what he saw, and felt that all of this should be borne by Ye Tiancheng.
"You bastard, give me back my son."
Facing the old man's questioning, Ye Tiancheng had long been accustomed to it and smiled as a matter of course.
"People die in war. Your son died with honor. We will give you the highest compensation, and you will never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life."
Ye Tianchen could only approach it from this angle. If he spoke from another perspective, he would not be understood at all. Others would always feel that he deserved to pay the heaviest price, and these mistakes were all caused by him.
If he hadn't launched the war against the quarry, so many people wouldn't have died. For those in power, the number of deaths was irrelevant to them. No matter what, they were the superiors, the ones who controlled the destinies of others.
"Can your money buy back my son? What a joke. Stop being naive and childish. We won't be fooled, we won't believe your nonsense." The old man cursed hysterically. They had long been disappointed with Ye Tiancheng. They hoped to have a kind city lord who would treat them well.
"Do you think those things on the trees are correct? In reality, they are deceiving you. If you were the city lord, wouldn't you be the same? Sacrificing the interests of others for your own benefit. You always preach about everything, but when it comes to actually implementing it, who is willing to think of you? So face reality, and stop being naive."
In Ye Tiancheng's view, telling them the truth might allow them to face reality and see it clearly. The so-called reality was something not found in books, or perhaps the opposite of what was written in books. These things were often impossible to say or write down. Everyone habitually preached those nonsensical principles, making people feel that doing so was natural.
How others saw it was their business. As for Ye Tiancheng, what he thought in his heart had long formed a clear contrast.
It was just that some things, he didn't want to explain too clearly.
If explained too clearly, they really couldn't be understood.
"Stop talking so much nonsense. Today, we'll settle this!" As he said this, a killing intent appeared on his face.
This intense killing intent made Ye Tiancheng immediately feel the strong hatred from the other party.
"Really, do you think coming to find me like this will solve the problem?"
"Then tell me, how can we pacify our resentment?"
"It seems you cannot be pacified!" Ye Tiancheng said fiercely.
Seeing Ye Tiancheng angry, he could only smile helplessly.
"Ye Tiancheng, you scoundrel, you're asking for death!"
From behind the old man, a black aura shot towards him.
The speed was so fast, it was as if it was covering him from all sides, attacking Ye Tiancheng. He had no chance to dodge and was instantly engulfed.
The black energy filling the sky attacked him, extremely terrifying!
"Damn it! It's actually this powerful! Awesome!" As he said this, he felt completely unwell.
He became exceptionally worrisome. This kind of worry was something only an idiot would think of, right?
Perhaps, what others thought was only what others thought. What he thought now was what he thought.
Perhaps, when dealing with certain things, it was just annoying to look at them now.
"Die! Ye Tiancheng!" At this moment, he had already erupted with powerful killing intent.
The black substance enveloped him, like a black dragon charging forward.
A long string of dark shadows, so it charged towards him. How much spiritual energy was there to fight against it? After all, some things were not as you wished. Those things, in Ye Tiancheng's view, should be like this.
Should they be like this?
The system was very unwilling to accept this reality.
With this fellow around, no dark things could harm Ye Tiancheng.
That fellow could only glare.
"I'll be damned!" The dark aura was clearly unable to do anything, and could only curse.
But what could be done?
"Go to hell!" No matter how good Ye Tiancheng's mood was, it couldn't get any better.
Seeing that the situation was about to eliminate him, the system absolutely would not allow it.
Yes, it would not allow it.
"That's truly... foolish!"
It's truly tragic when someone who desperately wants to explain the situation cannot.
Yes, that's right, it's tragic.
"Then it seems quite obvious. We've been used." Sister Lin said.
"Yes... we've reached a position that others cannot attain. How can those who desire such a position not be angry? I understand that, haha." Ye Tiancheng laughed up to the sky.
"You can still laugh. If it were me, I definitely wouldn't laugh. You are truly incomprehensible."
"I want to know why you are like this today?"
Sister Lin's words made Ye Tiancheng feel speechless. These things could not be explained clearly, so he simply didn't say anything.
How others saw it was their business. How he himself thought was the dominant factor.
"Don't you think we are the ones in charge?" Ye Tiancheng retorted.
"Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. Don't underestimate the common people. Otherwise, when everyone has an opinion of you, you won't be able to be the city lord."
