Su Changfeng met with Wang Tianhu, offering him a Fate Fruit and hinting at future collaboration, though Wang Tianhu remained unaware of the fruit's true value. Wu Chen observed this interaction with suspicion, questioning Su Changfeng's motives for befriending Wang Tianhu. Meanwhile, Ye Qingtian found himself unexpectedly released from Shangguan Sichen's custody, a freedom he attributed to Su Changfeng's intervention. At the airport, Ye Qingtian encountered Ye Tian, who was astonished by their striking resemblance, mistaking Ye Qingtian for his deceased father.

"Young man, what’s the matter with you? You’ve been staring at me. Is there something on my face?"

Ye Tian snapped back to reality when he heard this. Realizing his behavior might have been seen as rude, he smiled and said, "I’m really sorry, it’s just that you look very much like my father, and I was just a bit..."

Ye Qingtian nodded and smiled, "Oh really, you think it’s just a simple resemblance?"

Hearing this, Ye Tian felt his mind go blank.

Then he slowly realized that not only did this person look like Ye Qingtian, but even their voice seemed identical!

But, but this shouldn’t be possible!

Ye Tian simply couldn’t believe it, especially since he had personally witnessed Ye Qingtian’s burial. How could he see Ye Qingtian again now?

As Ye Tian stood there in stunned disbelief, Ye Qingtian said, "This is a long story. Let’s go back first, and I’ll explain everything to you."

Hearing this, Ye Tian finally believed that the person in front of him was indeed Ye Qingtian.

He nodded in shock and then said, "Alright."

Meanwhile, Ye Tian’s mind was racing, wondering if what he had seen back then was false after all?

Was the person buried not Ye Qingtian?

There were indeed too many questions unanswered. Ye Tian could only wait for Ye Qingtian to explain once they returned. But seeing his father alive again, Ye Tian felt naturally excited.

He then got into the car with Ye Qingtian, and even on the way back, Ye Tian would occasionally glance at Ye Qingtian, his eyes still filled with disbelief and shock.

Ye Qingtian understood Ye Tian’s reaction and said nothing.

He just looked at Ye Tian and asked, "How is the Ye Family doing?"

When this topic was brought up, Ye Tian felt quite troubled. After all, the Ye Family was on a decline, with many people unwilling to cooperate with them anymore.

If things continued like this, their company would eventually face bankruptcy, and even Shangguan Feihong was powerless at this point.

So, Ye Tian directly told the truth. Upon learning these things, Ye Qingtian also felt very puzzled.

Because before Ye Qingtian was captured, the Ye Family was gradually improving. If Shangguan Feihong hadn’t done anything wrong, it shouldn’t have come to this.

Thus, Ye Qingtian frowned and asked, "Didn’t your mother manage things well, or did she do something wrong?"

Ye Tian hesitated for a moment and said, "It’s not other things, it’s just that Chang Feng was driven away."

"What?"

Ye Qingtian’s face darkened at this, even though he was previously aware that Shangguan Feihong had always liked Ye Weijun. But no matter what, Su Changfeng was also a descendant of the Ye Family.

No matter what, Shangguan Feihong shouldn’t have gone to such lengths.

Ye Tian said, "Father, actually, Mother has always been very fond of Weijun. I believe you know this without me saying so; therefore, no matter what Chang Feng did, Mother couldn’t accept it."

"Slowly, their relationship completely fell apart, which is why our company has gradually reached this point."

"What do you mean? Are you saying this has something to do with Chang Feng?" Ye Qingtian asked, frowning and puzzled.

After all, Su Changfeng was just a child now. Even if Shangguan Feihong really drove Su Changfeng away, Su Changfeng couldn’t possibly fight back against Shangguan Feihong.

However, Ye Qingtian recalled what Shangguan Sichen had told him before, saying the reason he left that place was because of Su Changfeng.

Ye Qingtian couldn’t help but speculate, could it be that Su Changfeng had accomplished something remarkable?

"Actually, this situation wasn’t caused by Chang Feng because Chang Feng never acted against our Ye Family. But Chang Feng is very powerful now, so basically, everyone wants to befriend him."

"Because of this, the companies we previously had partnerships with have cut ties, causing our Ye Family to decline day by day," Ye Tian explained to Ye Qingtian.

When Ye Tian said these things, he didn’t blame Su Changfeng because the person responsible for all this was Shangguan Feihong, and Su Changfeng never retaliated against the Ye Family.

Otherwise, the Ye Family might not have lasted this long. Given Su Changfeng’s current status and position, if he wanted to, the Ye Family would probably be gone in a day.

Ye Qingtian frowned and said, "It seems many changes happened during this time, but you say Su Changfeng is very powerful? Can you explain why?"

Ye Tian said, "The Martial Arts Competition."

Ye Qingtian was even more puzzled upon hearing this. He knew about the Martial Arts Competition, but what’s the connection to Su Changfeng?

Even if Ye Qingtian knew that Su Changfeng had been secretly practicing martial arts, he shouldn’t be able to participate in such a competition, right?

"You mean Su Changfeng participated?"

"Yes." Ye Tian nodded. Speaking about this brought a hint of helplessness to his eyes. Initially, Ye Tian always felt that Su Changfeng participating was an overestimation of his abilities because how could a child like Su Changfeng compete against these people?

But reality had given him a slap in the face.

Su Changfeng’s achievements at that time were beyond their wildest imaginations, and because of this, Su Changfeng became famous, and everyone was eager to win his favor.

"Su Changfeng made a name for himself in this competition, astonishing everyone, and now everyone believes the championship belongs to Su Changfeng, even before the final match," Ye Tian said.

"In fact, as long as they knew Su Changfeng was their opponent, they usually forfeited directly, so Su Changfeng was likely to wait until the final match to really compete," Ye Tian added.

"What?!"

Ye Qingtian couldn’t believe what he was hearing. After all, Su Changfeng was only a teenager, but Ye Tian’s words implied that no one could defeat Su Changfeng?!

Ye Tian continued, "I don’t know if father knows Wu Chen."

Ye Qingtian said, "I know him. Why?"

After all, Ye Qingtian and Wu Chen were from the same era.
