Chapter 497 The Ancestor Has Come Out of Seclusion
Everyone in the ancestral hall was frightened. They had never experienced such a strange phenomenon in their lifetime.
Xiao Xi and a few others who were hiding on the roof were cast under a spell by Ye Xingxian. Even the tiles flew away, but they were still lying on the roof safe and sound.
I saw the ancient well facing the gate of the ancestral hall, and the huge rock above it flew up into the sky.
Could it be a blowout? Everyone in the host family thought.
Xiao Xi and the others were also staring intently. What was gushing out of the well was not water, but a person.
To be precise, he is an old man with a face full of wrinkles and few hairs. His face is covered with age spots, which makes people dare not look directly at him.
"What are you arguing about? You unfilial descendants are really getting worse with each generation. You are bringing shame to our Ye family."
Among the people present, only Ye Bingkun recognized the old man.
"Welcome, ancestor. I was just saying I have something to tell you. I was just sending you a message. Isn't it the day for you to come out of seclusion yet?"
The old ancestor did not answer Ye Bingkun's words. He just glared at everyone in the ancestral hall fiercely.
"I just want to ask you youngsters, what are you arguing about? Today is not a day to worship our ancestors. Who asked you to come?"
Everyone was silent, it turned out that this person was the ancestor of their Ye family.
The oldest uncle mustered up the courage to step forward and answer.
"In reply to the old ancestor, today is the day when the tablet of the previous patriarch Ye Dexian is placed in the ancestral hall, so we, the younger generation, have gathered here. We are disturbing the old ancestor's meditation. Please punish us!"
The new head of the Ye family, the second son, just reacted.
He fell to his knees with a thud.
"The 13th generation head of the Ye family, Ye Shiming has met the ancestor."
The old man snorted.
"According to the time calculation, Ye Dexian was not yet dead, so how could he die?"
Ye Shiming didn't dare to hide it and had to tell the truth.
The old man stepped on the ground and the bluestone slab immediately shattered.
"I'm so angry. Each generation is worse than the previous one. How did Ye Dexian educate his son? He is such a failure. He is not worthy of being the head of the family. He deserves to be smothered to death by his son.
A small guy like Ye Shiming was unexpectedly picked up by you and became the head of the family. Then you should work hard for me.
If you can't manage the family well, I will destroy you immediately!"
How could Ye Shiming dare to say no? His whole body was wet and he knelt on the ground, obeying his orders submissively.
The old ancestor was angry for a long while, and suddenly he slapped his head, then he remembered what his original intention was for coming out of the well?
If someone hadn't moved the thing in the ancestral house, how could he have degenerated so much? What's the difference between him and someone who is about to die of old age?
"Ye Shiming, let me ask you, has anyone moved the ancient mirror in the ancestral home?"
"What ancient mirror? Old Ancestor, I really don't know what ancient mirror you are talking about? If you need an ancient mirror, Shiming will find it for you right away!"
"fool!"
The old man was so angry that he was shaking all over and broke a piece of bluestone on the ground.
It's really impossible to communicate, and I feel so tired.
Only Xiao Xi and others who were hidden on the roof knew what ancient mirror the ancestor was talking about.
They found it funny in their hearts. They never expected that the ancient mirror that Ye Shian presented to Blue Star No. 3 was found in their ancestral home.
I didn’t expect that this was the main reason why the ancestor came out of seclusion.
Unfortunately, the ancient mirror had been smashed into pieces and used in the formation for transferring Ye Lingfeng's mark.
The old ancestor glanced at Ye Bingkun, meaning to let him explain.
Of course Ye Bingkun knew about this ancient mirror. The ancestor relied mostly on this ancient mirror when he was in seclusion in the dark room in the basement of the ancestral home.
He cleared his throat and began to explain science to the descendants of his ancestor.
"The reason why the ancestor was able to retreat safely is inseparable from this ancient mirror."
In fact, he knew the inside story. This ancient mirror had a history of at least thousands of years, and it continuously absorbed the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
The ancient mirror provides the ancestor with the spiritual power needed for his retreat. To put it bluntly, it is also absorbing the Ye family's luck. The ancestor is the ancestor of the Ye family, so of course he has to rely on the Ye family's luck for support.
In order to prevent the younger generations of the Ye family from knowing the inside story, the ancient mirror is actually in Ye Shiming's grandmother's room.
His grandmother died when she was less than 50 years old, also because she liked playing with antique mirrors.
But Ye Shiming didn't know that his good brother secretly returned to the ancestral home and took away the ancient mirror.
So Ye Bingkun's majestic voice sounded again.
"We must find this ancient mirror!
If you have offended the ancestor, then you may have to replace the new head of the family, right?"
Ye Shiming agreed verbally but was not convinced in his heart.
This Ye Bingkun is just a servant of the ancestor. What qualifications does he have to show off here?
His position was originally a lucky one, and his father never taught him how to be a qualified head of the family since he was a child.
I just finished taking care of my father's funeral, I was exhausted, and now this terrible thing has happened.
And this old ancestor is just an immortal. His existence has not been proven to be a big deal as to how much he protects the Ye family.
But since he can live to this day and exists as an old monster, Ye Shiming is afraid of this ancestor.
At this time Ye Bingkun smiled apologetically to the ancestor.
"Old Ancestor, even if I don't have the ancient mirror, I have left a backup plan for you.
The younger generation has been training a lot of talents for the master family. These people were selected from various branches since childhood.
I wonder if the ancestor still remembers that I asked him to seal them last time!"
When Xiao Xi heard this, she was so angry that her teeth were about to break.
It turns out that Ye Bingkun is so hateful. Most of the pain Ye Lingfeng suffered came from him.
Ye Bingkun continued to curry favor and take credit.
"Among those who have been marked, there is a guy named Ye Lingfeng. He is actually a technological genius. He designed a medical therapy cabin and is offering it to you today."
Ye Bingkun straightened his back in front of the ancestor.
"Don't worry, ancestor. Look at how vigorous my spirit is. I have tested it on myself for you first!"
The old ancestor then looked Ye Bingkun up and down.
He couldn't help feeling jealous. He was getting older and older, and was no longer as good as before. His servant was not much younger than him, but now it seemed that the difference between the two was several times.
"What therapy cabin? Why don't you bring it up? Let me try for now, but we can't delay the search for the ancient mirror!"
Of course Ye Bingkun did not dare to disobey the ancestor and glared at Ye Shiming again.
"Why don't you arrange a room for the ancestor? You are so dull and stupid, how can you be the head of the family? And when the ancestor is resting, no one present is allowed to leave the ancestral house!"
Ye Shiming hurried to handle the matters arranged by Ye Bingkun, and the other uncles dared not say anything although they were angry.
However, at this moment, Xiao Xi and the others on the roof were more looking forward to what results would occur when the ancestor slept in these two body treatment cabins.
In this way, the people in the ancestral hall waited for three days and three nights.
Xiao Xi and the others did not leave the ancestral home for the time being. When they were tired or sleepy, they went to her castle in the sky to sleep and eat.
On the third night, Ye Lingfeng heard the reminder sound that the lid of his second body treatment cabin was about to be opened.
Of course they stripped the roof again.
The lid of the therapy cabin opened and a man with beautiful long silver hair climbed out.
