Chapter 17: The Family Truth

After Ye Xing Chen gradually gained a firm foothold in the city, he began to investigate deeply into his family's false accusation back then. After a grueling investigation, he gradually realized that there was a huge conspiracy hidden behind it. It turned out that it was one of the elders in the family who had colluded with other families and mysterious forces in order to compete for the family's inheritance, and had designed a frame-up of Ye Xingchen in an attempt to remove him as a thorn in his side. Ye Xing Chen's heart was filled with anger when he learned the truth, and he vowed to expose the conspiracy and let the truth come out to the world, returning his own innocence while clearing the family's name.

With his intelligence and connections, Ye Xing Chen began to collect evidence. He went deep into the tiger's den and risked a great deal to infiltrate the strongholds of the forces related to the conspiracy. In the enemy's lair, he traveled like a ghost, skillfully avoiding the numerous traps and patrolling guards. Once he found documents or clues related to the conspiracy, he did not hesitate to pocket them.

On one occasion, he infiltrated a heavily guarded villa that was an important stronghold for the conspirators. The area around the villa was covered with all sorts of surveillance equipment and alarm devices, as well as a group of well-trained guards patrolling the area. Ye Xing Chen took advantage of the night and quietly approached the villa. He first utilized his superior lightweight skills to avoid the range of the surveillance, and then swiftly resolved a few guards like a ghost without making a single sound. After entering the villa, he carefully searched in each room. Just when he was about to find the key evidence, he suddenly triggered a hidden alarm device. In an instant, the entire villa resounded with ear-piercing alarms and the lights came on brightly. Ye Xing Chen's heart was startled, he knew he was in danger.

At this moment, a group of guards came like a tidal wave and surrounded him in a room. Each of these guards was armed with advanced weapons, their eyes staring ferociously at Ye Xingchen. The order they received was to shoot on sight, so as soon as they came up, they shot wildly towards Ye Xing Chen. Ye Xing Chen quickly sought cover as he hid behind a table, the bullets rained down on the table and wood shavings flew. Ye Xing Chen knew he couldn't just sit and wait for death, he observed his surroundings and found a vent. He took advantage of the gap between the guards changing their magazines to perform the lightness of the mysterious inheritance and rushed towards the vent like a dark shadow. Seeing this, the guards fired towards him, but they were all skillfully dodged by Ye Xingchen.

Ye Xingchen drilled into the vent and quickly crawled through the narrow ventilation ducts. However, the guards did not give up their pursuit as they followed Ye Xingchen closely through the vent's tracking system. Ye Xingchen turned left and right in the ventilation ducts, trying to shake off the pursuers behind him. Suddenly, a fork in the road appeared in front of him, and Ye Xingchen chose the left passage without hesitation. Shortly after he climbed in, he heard an explosion from behind him. It turned out that the guards had set up a bomb at the fork in the road in order to stop him from escaping. Ye Xingchen screamed in his heart that it was a fluke, if he had chosen the right passage, I'm afraid he would have been blown to pieces at this moment.

After a thrilling chase, Ye Xing Chen finally got rid of the guards and successfully escaped the villa with the key evidence.

After months of hard work, Ye Xing Chen finally grasped enough evidence. He organized this evidence into a book and then held a grand family meeting. At the meeting, Ye Xing Chen showed the evidence one by one in front of all the family members. The family members were shocked when they saw the ironclad evidence and accused that elder of despicable behavior. That elder originally wanted to argue, but in front of the conclusive evidence, his face turned pale and he was speechless.

Ye Xing Chen exposed the Elder's plot without mercy and made his actions public. The family members were so angry and disappointed with the Elder's behavior that they unanimously decided to expel the Elder from the family and deprive him of all his powers. Ye Xing Chen managed to clear his name, restore his honor, and return to the core of the family.

His status in the family rose rapidly and he became a pivotal figure in the family. The members of the family were impressed and drew closer to him, hoping to gain his patronage and support. Ye Xing Chen, on the other hand, utilized his influence to carry out a series of reforms to the family. He reorganized the family business, purged the corrupt elements within, and introduced advanced management concepts and techniques to revitalize the family business. At the same time, he also strengthened the family's martial arts training, enhancing the family's overall strength and making the Ye family's position in the Jianghu more secure.
