Ye Tianyi was really stunned!

‘Bro, have you been reading too many novels? Has the powerful person returned? He was just a useless person!’

Although…

Something he said did make sense. Ye Tianyi was far from making a comeback as a powerful person, but it was true that he was no longer useless! With this level of talent, it could be said that he was training towards becoming a powerful person, right?

Everybody thought it was a joke. However, there were some who took it seriously, such as Huo Shui…

“F*ck me! Is that true? What this fatty said seems to make sense! The entire Ye family was indeed massacred by a group of unknown people. Ye Tianyi was so young at the time. If he was a genius, the best choice would be to hide his true strength.”

“Really? It’s such a cliche story, though! I don’t believe it! However… Ye Xian’er is Ye Tianyi’s sister. They come from the same bloodline, so how could he be a useless person? It wouldn’t make sense for them to have different powers since they share the same blood. Is it possible….”

“I don’t want to hear it, noooo! This person’s more useless compared to me! I don’t believe this!”

“…”

Some people had started gossiping about the situation.

Huo Shui was deep in thought, a frown on her face.

Could it be possible that what the fatty said was true?

It was totally possible! From the first time she saw Ye Tianyi—the look in his eyes, his tone while he spoke—she had thought to herself that he was not just some useless person. The confidence that peeked at the corners of his mouth… He made her feel like a fatigued little witch who failed at executing her pranks. All through her years at the Tensui Academy, only Shi Jiayi made her feel that way. As for the other students who were her age, she simply regarded them as kids, and it was pointless pulling pranks on them. Of course, she only pulled pranks on men who were obsessed with her looks.

As for this Ye Tianyi…

She could not understand him.

Shi Jiayi also felt it was possible! Among all the people there, only two people other than Ye Tianyi knew it was impossible. One of them was Ye Xian’er, the other was Bai Hanxue. Only they knew that Ye Tianyi was a real bastard—an abandoned child the Ye family had adopted—not an actual member of the Ye family.

Following Li Bang’s question, everybody’s attention was fixated on Ye Xian’er.

Ye Xian’er had no idea what to tell them.

Ye Tianyi was helpless! Li Bang’s words made everybody around him start to wonder. On the surface, nobody seemed to believe it, yet they were secretly suspicious. Especially when they remembered that Bai Hanxue kissed Ye Tianyi and that she herself had allowed Ye Tianyi to kiss her as well. Although she had clarified that she was not in a relationship with Ye Tianyi, she did not give further explanations either. As everyone was unable to understand how the incident happened, they naturally came to their own conclusions. Could it be possible that Ye Tianyi was really hiding his true self and that Bai Hanxue secretly knew about this? So she was secretly in a relationship with him?

That was a huge possibility.

Ye Xian’er said lightly, “I don’t want to say much about matters regarding the Ye family. As for Little Yi… That’s his personal matter, and I think he can do better in the future.”

Ye Xian’er’s words confused everyone. Was he making a comeback as someone powerful or what?

Li Bang always suspected that was the case.

Qin Chao stepped forward and said, “Everybody, refrain from jumping to conclusions. The incident of the Ye family has always been a mystery of the Tensui Sacred City and it’s also one of our deepest regrets. I’ve been investigating it over the years. As for Ye Tianyi…”

Qin Chao looked to Ye Tianyi and said, “Wind damages the flourishing trees in the forest. I like this saying and I believe that everybody wishes to be that tree. I also hope that you, Ye Tianyi, are hiding something, because I’d really like to challenge you to a fight.”

Qin Chao’s words were meant for Ye Xian’er.

Ye Tianyi shrugged and said, “I’m sorry, but I, too, wish that I’ve been hiding the fact that I’m a genius all these years. Such a pity…”

Everybody could not help but laugh after hearing what Ye Tianyi said.

They would have been concerned if he was hiding his true self all these years, but it turned out that he was not. He was just a useless person.

“What’s a pity?” Qin Chao asked with a smile.

“It’s a pity…” Ye Tianyi raised his head, scanned the crowd, and said indifferently, “I used to think I was a genius, but in the end, I discovered that…I’m a god!”

Everybody, “???”

“Ding… You’ve successfully showed off. Master was so handsome, he made thirteen chicks cry. Drag Points +130,000;

“Ding… You’ve successfully showed off. Master was so handsome, he made three chicks dizzy. Drag Points +210,000.”

It was true. With Ye Tianyi’s good looks, the attention he got, and the fact that his simple words were meaningful and memorable, more than a dozen girls cried because of his charming ways.

It was unexplainable why some people could look so handsome when they tried to act cool.
