Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

In the banquet hall.

The dozen or so royal experts who were lurking here exchanged glances.

They set their sights on Zhou Yuqing, who was chatting and laughing with her friends.

Zhou Yuqing, Ye Ge's mother, is a powerful Asura Realm expert. She looks quite young, with fair skin and a beautiful appearance. At first glance, she looks only twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Her appearance and behavior also seem very innocent, like a college student who has just entered the world. Her behavior is full of youthful vitality.

She wasn't known for her overwhelming strength like Ye Quan and Ye Xiao, but her background was quite mysterious. She was said to be a very shrewd person, and as the mother of the Ye family, she was definitely not a naive and innocent character.

However, as long as we can capture her, we can definitely use her to threaten Ye Ge.

"So, are you going to make a move?"

"The Ye family's defenses are quite tight; it might be difficult to make a move..."

"Don't rush, be patient, and wait for your opportunity!"

As time passed, the banquet was drawing to a close.

Zhou Yuqing was drinking with a few girlfriends. She seemed to have drunk a little too much. Her face was flushed and she started talking nonsense. She also began to sway from side to side.

Dressed as a maid, Ye Zi rushed over and took Zhou Yuqing's arm, saying, "Madam, you've had too much to drink. Let me help you back to your room to rest!"

Zhou Yuqing nodded dazedly, then had Ye Zi help her leave.

Several royal experts' eyes lit up, and they immediately followed.

After leaving the banquet hall, only Zhou Yuqing and Ye Zi remained in the long corridor of the villa.

"Madam, please be careful, there are steps here," Ye Zi said.

"Hmm..." Zhou Yuqing seemed to be quite drunk and nodded blankly.

Several royal guards followed closely behind.

"Heh, I didn't expect Zhou Yuqing to be no different from an ordinary noblewoman." A master sneered, "It seems the rumors outside are false."

Another expert frowned. This was indeed a great opportunity to make a move, but... wasn't it going a little too smoothly?

“Something’s not right. Why isn’t there a single guard here? Third brother, scout around and see if there are any ambushes nearby.”

"it is good."

The third brother clasped his hands together and began to use his mental power to explore his surroundings.

After a while.

"There's no indication of any superhuman soul power reaction; most people are still gathered in the hall," the third brother said.

The expert frowned: "It's actually true... But... that shouldn't be the case? Is this all the vigilance the matriarch of the Ye family has? Has the Ye family's internal defense become so weak? Could it be because they didn't expect someone to cause trouble on this day?...?"

The third brother is a perception-type ability user in the Asura Realm, specializing in detection and reconnaissance. With his mental strength, even if there are extraordinary beings in the Apocalypse Realm lying in ambush around, they will absolutely not escape his detection in such a narrow space!

His reconnaissance is unlikely to be wrong, so there really is no ambush here?

"Boss, what do we do? If we're going to make a move, we have to hurry." Another person said gravely, "The opportunity will be fleeting!"

The boss paused for a moment; in situations like this, the only time available to make a judgment might be a few seconds.

His eyes hardened, and he immediately made a decision: "Do it! Kill the little girl and take Zhou Yuqing away!"

"Shh-"

"Shh-"

"Shh-"

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen experts rushed out at the same time.

In an instant, they appeared around Ye Zi and Zhou Yuqing!

Zhou Yuqing had one arm draped over Ye Zi's shoulder, her head swaying back and forth, completely out of her mind and unaware of the impending danger.

When Ye Zi saw these experts suddenly appear, her big, innocent eyes widened in surprise: "You...!"

"Hehe, got it!"

One of the experts sneered, thinking to himself that it was too easy, and that the Ye family was nothing special.

He drew a short knife and slashed it towards Ye Zi's neck.

"Om-"

The knife sliced ​​across the middle of Ye Zi's neck.

The expert was taken aback for a moment.

Because this cut was a real slash, as if it hadn't touched anything at all; the expert's arm passed right through Ye Zi's body...

The other royal experts also failed to capture Zhou Yuqing.

"phantom?!?"

The boss's pupils contracted as he realized what was happening.

Boom!

A thunderous roar echoed in their minds.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen royal experts were simultaneously and brutally pinned to the ground by the Ye family's guards!

The dozen or so royal experts were completely dumbfounded.

Because the scene before them had completely changed.

Inside the bustling banquet hall, Ye Ge stood on the main stage, looking at them with a cold expression.

Zhou Yuqing also had a playful smile on her face, standing not far away with her arms crossed.

The many distinguished guests in the banquet hall stared at these people in astonishment, whispering among themselves, pointing and gossiping.

The boss was completely stunned, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead instantly.

What...what happened?

Weren't they in the hallway just now?

How did we end up back in the banquet hall?

......

Fifteen minutes ago.

Ye Ge opened the system and glanced at the time.

almost.

Then I opened the chat panel again.

[Night Song: Xue'er, how's the Sky Eye setting coming along?]

[Takayuki: Yes, all equipment has been set up and the weapons are ready.]

[Night Song: OK]

At this moment, Li Shuying walked over and came up behind Ye Ge, whispering, "My lord, our Ye family's extraordinary observation platform has detected a magical perception-type extraordinary energy wave. It should be that the dark races from beyond the borders are using some kind of observation technique to investigate the situation in our southern territory."

Then he asked, "Should we interrupt their magic waves?"

Ye Ge's eyes were playful: "No need, let them see clearly."

He then walked onto the main stage of the banquet.

He picked up the microphone, said "hello" a few times, and then began to speak.

"Distinguished guests, please be quiet for a moment. I have a few words to say."

The scene suddenly became quiet.

All the guests turned their heads to look at the main stage.

Ye Ge smiled and said, "Those who have come here today are all important figures in the empire who are either rich or powerful. I am very grateful to all of you for taking time out of your busy schedules to participate in this wedding."

"I hope that everyone who is here today will be a friend of the Ye family in the future."

"Not the enemy."
