C6 How Can the Disparity be so Great

Jade bi? A pair?

The courtyard became quiet all of a sudden. Everyone's gaze turned towards the door.

They were all wondering who Ye Tian was to be able to take out such a precious item.

Ye Jingshan and Ye Na were also stunned.

It wasn't because of the jade bis, but because of the two words, Ye Tian.

"Ye Tian? Could it be that Little Tian has returned?" Ye Jingshan was surprised and happy at the same time. He put down his cup and ran to the door.

"Uncle, it's Little Tian. I'm back."

Ye Tian quickly went up to Ye Jingshan.

After not seeing him for more than ten years, his uncle's face had become more wrinkled, and his body had lost a lot of weight. However, he was still as amiable as before.

Ye Tian would never forget that it was this man who raised him and encouraged him to join the army!

It could be said that without Ye Jingshan, The Reaching Heaven God of War would not exist!

"Alright, alright, it's good that you're back. It's good that you're back!" Ye Jingshan patted Ye Tian's shoulder as his eyes turned red all of a sudden.

"Little Tian, you've grown up." Looking at Ye Tian, who was a head taller than him, Ye Jingshan was very proud.

"Uncle, it's your birthday. I came here to wish you a happy birthday!" Ye Tian had a smile on his face, but there was a weird light in his eyes.

He could clearly feel that Ye Jingshan's face was a little pale. He was short of breath, and even his gait was a little unsteady.

This was a sign of injury, and it was not light at all. Ye Jingshan was just barely holding on.

Could it be that something had happened at home?

Ye Tian's gaze turned sharp.

"Uncle, you're the birthday star, how can you stand? Hurry up and sit down."

Ye Tian also helped Ye Jingshan to sit down.

"You child." Ye Jingshan smiled and waved his hand. He didn't refuse. "Look at you, you've become a lot more mature. The life in the army must be difficult, right?"

"Not bad!" Ye Tian shook his head. "The leader took good care of me. I didn't suffer much."

Ye Jingshan acknowledged it, but he didn't see that in Lin Kui's eyes.

If a warlord really didn't suffer, his Dragon Country would have been invaded long ago.

"Girl, why are you still standing there? Didn't you always ask when Big Brother would be back? Why are you still in a daze?"

Hearing this, Ye Na, who was at the side, immediately blushed. She took two steps forward and stood in front of Ye Tian.

"Little ... Brother Ye Tian!"

Ye Na originally wanted to call Ye Tian "Little Tian", but she was unable to do so under the watchful eyes of the crowd, so she quickly changed they way he addressed him.

She and Ye Tian grew up together, and they called each other "Little" for almost ten years!

However, more than ten years passed in a flash. Ye Na was at a loss as to how to deal with the man in front of her.

Especially since they had been engaged as children.

Back then, she had been happy for several days because of this.

But now, looking at Ye Tian's ordinary appearance, she couldn't laugh at all.

"Haha, Na is already this old? I almost didn't recognize you!"

Ye Tian smiled. It was said that women undergo a change at the age of eighteen. The little follower behind her had now become a slim and graceful girl.

"This girl …" Ye Jingshan laughed bitterly and looked at Ye Tian. "Little Tian, come and sit, let me tell you —"

"What else is there to say?" Wang Xiulian interrupted, giving Ye Tian a casual look.

"What time is it? If you continue, will the banquet ever start?"

The atmosphere was a bit awkward. Ye Tian laughed without a care and then spoke to ease the situation.

"It's all my fault for being late. Uncle, let's hurry up and start the banquet. Don't delay it any longer."

Ye Jingshan stopped smiling and stared at his wife. "What did you say? Little Tian had gone through so much trouble to come back, so couldn't you watch your words?"

Wang Xiulian snorted, "Am I wrong? For his sake, you have neglected so many distinguished guests. Was it worth it?"

As she spoke, he looked Ye Tian up and down a few times before turning her head away in disdain.

"You, cough, cough ..." Ye Jingshan wanted to retort, but he started coughing violently with a pale face.

"Uncle, Aunt is right. Uncle and nephew have plenty of time to talk. We can't leave our guests alone."

Ye Tian frowned and patted Ye Jingshan's back. It seemed that his uncle's injury was more serious than he thought.

"Yeah, Mom, stop talking." Ye Na rolled her eyes at Wang Xiulian and helped Ye Jingshan into the seat of honor.

Ye Jingshan managed to steady himself, glared at Wang Xiulian, and patted the chair beside him.

"Don't worry about her. Little Tian, come and sit next to Uncle!"

Wang Xiulian snorted and turned her head away with a dark expression.

What she didn't notice was that Lin Kui was looking at her with a cold gaze. If she wasn't Ye Tian's aunt, she would already be a corpse.

No matter where Ye Tian went, he would be treated as an honored guest, let alone this small Ye family.

Ye Tian bluntly walked to Ye Jingshan's side. Just as he was about to sit down, a discordant voice rang out.

"You're Na's brother from the army, Ye Tian?"

Ye Tian turned around and saw a young man with an oily and powdered face staring at him.

"Little Wu, what are you doing?" Ye Jingshan frowned as he looked at Wu Tong, a little annoyed.

Wu Tong smiled and said, "Uncle Ye, it's your birthday today. Even if Na doesn't take this seat, Aunt should be the one to take it. Why should an outsider like him take it?"

Then, he looked at Ye Tian again. "Kid, you need to know your place. You are just an adopted son. If it wasn't for your relationship with Uncle Ye, you wouldn't even have the right to be here. Tell me, what qualifications do you have to sit here?"

Wu Tong's words could be said to be cruel.

It hadn't been a day since he started chasing Ye Na, but Ye Na had never looked at him directly.

Yet she was so intimate with this bumpkin that he nearly exploded from anger.

He would take this opportunity to teach him a lesson today.

"Wu Tong, you …" Ye Jingshan was about to speak, but he was stopped by Ye Tian's raised hand.

"Then tell me, where should I sit?" Ye Tian raised his head and looked at Wu Tong with interest.

Wu Tong looked at him with disdain. "You are just a country bumpkin. You should get out of here as soon as possible. Don't dirty Uncle Ye's place."

Ye Tian smiled. He didn't seem angry at all. "Then who are you? What right do you have to kick me out?"

"You don't even know me? He really is a bumpkin!" Wu Tong's eyebrows twitched as his voice became a bit louder. "Have you heard of the Wu family?"

"The Wu family?" Ye Tian shook his head. "Never heard of it."

"You! However, that's understandable. How could a bumpkin like you even touch someone of that level?" Wu Tong's expression became even more contemptuous as he continued, "I heard that you've been a soldier for quite some time. What rank have you achieved? It can't be that you're a gatekeeper, right? "

Seeing Ye Tian's attire and how young he was, Wu Tong did not put him in his eyes at all.

Ye Tian shook his head and said, "I have already retired from the army. I am now serving in the military."

Leaving the army at such an young age?

Ye Jingshan and Ye Na frowned.

If he were to retire, wouldn't that mean he would lose his job?

Wang Xiulian curled her lips, not bothering to look at Ye Tian.

"Hahaha, no wonder he suddenly came back." Wu Tong laughed without restraint. "I think you were discharged. You said that you wanted to see Uncle Ye, but you only came because you were discharged, right? Furthermore, you even have a position in the military. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at? "

"Look at the God of War of the North. He's only in his early forties and he's already a warlord! At his age, he already has one hundred thousand troops under his command.

Wu Tong's words were full of disdain and mockery. "You are both soldiers, so why is there such a huge gap between you?"
