"I'm done pretending. Actually, I'm the Dragon King."
Ye Tian smirked, a proud expression on his face, revealing his identity as the Dragon King.
"Dragon King?"
"What Dragon King?"
Bai Bingyue looked bewildered, puzzled, and confused.
She had no idea what a Dragon King was.
Last time, Ye Tian had also revealed himself, claiming to be a divine doctor capable of curing her strange illness.
As a result, she had been subjected to nine needles from Ye Tian, enduring excruciating pain, while her strange illness showed no improvement whatsoever.
Could this Dragon King also be a fraud?
However, upon hearing the name Dragon King, the patriarchs of the influential families revealed expressions of shock.
"The Dragon King, Ye Tian is actually the Dragon King!"
Bai Zhonghe, Yuan Chongjin, and other patriarchs were filled with immense dread.
To them, the name Dragon King was thunderous.
In the underworld, everyone knew the Dragon King's fearsome reputation!
To put it simply, any Dragon King's Emissary under the Dragon King had the power to wipe out a first-class influential family.
If Ye Tian were truly the Dragon King, this would be the most explosive news imaginable.
But why would he enter the Bai family as a live-in son-in-law, enduring the scolding and beatings from Bai Bingyue and her mother?
What was his purpose in enduring humiliation for three years?
Why would Ye Tian suddenly reveal his identity as the Dragon King?
Since he was the Dragon King, why would he deliberately play the role of a wretch, never fighting back against blows or retorts? Was this Ye Tian a masochist?
There were many mysteries and incomprehensible aspects to this.
Just then, a group of figures clad in peculiar black robes entered the Bai family's banquet hall and collectively knelt before Ye Tian.
Each of these individuals possessed a powerful aura.
"Dragon King's Emissaries of the Dragon King's Hall, pay respects to the Dragon King!"
"The three-year period has ended. We welcome the Dragon King's return."
A group of black-robed Dragon King's Emissaries prostrated themselves before Ye Tian, their demeanor respectful, their presence astonishing.
Witnessing this scene, everyone from the influential families present was deeply shocked.
"What, Ye Tian is really the Dragon King!"
"Then why did he disguise himself as a wretch and marry into the Bai family?"
While shocked, everyone was also filled with confusion.
Ye Tian seemed to relish the stunned gazes, especially seeing Bai Bingyue's shocked and adoring expression, which greatly satisfied his vanity.
"To be frank, I, Ye Tian, married into the Bai family because Bai'er and I had a marriage engagement since childhood."
"Not only that, Bai'er is also my master's daughter. I entered the Bai family as a live-in son-in-law to protect Bai'er and undergo a trial."
"Now that the three-year period has arrived, I, Ye Tian, will reclaim my Dragon King identity and command respect throughout the entire Dragon Country."
Ye Tian said proudly, explaining the reason for his marriage into the Bai family.
So, it turned out he had endured humiliation in the Bai family for three years to undergo his master's trial.
"Ye Tian, are you truly the Dragon King? And are you my biological father's disciple? Did you marry into the Bai family to protect me?"
Bai Bingyue stared at Ye Tian, her face a mixture of shock and suspicion.
This wretch, Ye Tian, was actually the Dragon King!
He had kept his true identity incredibly hidden.
"That's right. I am your father's direct disciple. With me, Ye Tian, around, no one will be able to harm you today."
Ye Tian rubbed his nose and spoke.
If it weren't for the three-year pact with the old man, how could he have tolerated the humiliation and abuse from Bai Bingyue and her mother, enduring it in the Bai family for three years?
"Ye Tian, since you are my father's disciple, do you have to obey my commands?"
Upon learning Ye Tian's true identity, Bai Bingyue immediately gained confidence and revealed her domineering and unreasonable side.
If Ye Tian was the Dragon King, then her biological father's status must be even more noble and extraordinary.
"This..."
Ye Tian appeared somewhat hesitant. He was, after all, the Dragon King.
"I'm asking you, do you or do you not obey me?"
Bai Bingyue's expression turned cold as she continued to press him.
"Yes, of course! Whatever orders Bai'er has, I, Ye Tian, will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Ye Tian said with a fawning smile, acting like a devoted sycophant.
"Excellent. I want everyone who humiliated me, mocked me, belittled me, and wished me dead, to die!"
Bai Bingyue's gaze swept across everyone present, her eyes filled with venom.
That's right, she wanted everyone dead!
The faces of the Bai family members present turned extremely grim upon hearing Bai Bingyue's words.
This Bai Bingyue was indeed an ungrateful wretch.
The Bai family had raised her, yet she wanted to kill everyone in the family.
"Earlier, Bai Lieyang tried to kill me! Now, I want him dead!"
"Ye Tian, you are the Dragon King, kill Bai Lieyang immediately!"
Bai Bingyue shot Bai Lieyang a venomous glance and ordered Ye Tian to kill him.
"Ye Tian, I am a Major in the War Department. Do you dare to kill me?"
Bai Lieyang stared at Ye Tian, his expression vigilant.
He hadn't expected that this crazy woman, Bai Bingyue, would want him dead first.
"Hahaha... I am the Dragon King. There is no one Ye Tian dares not to kill!"
Ye Tian burst into laughter.
Now was a perfect opportunity for him to show off and impress Bai Bingyue.
He had endured for three full years, waiting for such a moment.
"Die!"
Ye Tian took out a golden needle and slowly uttered a single word.
"Whoosh!"
The golden needle shot out, transforming into a streak of golden light, instantly piercing Bai Lieyang's forehead.
Bai Lieyang, who was at the Martial King realm, had no ability to resist and died on the spot, his eyes wide open in disbelief.
"Bai Bingyue, you beast! The Bai family raised you, and you heartlessly killed your cousin Bai Lieyang."
Seeing Bai Lieyang, the Bai family's prodigy, killed by Ye Tian, Bai Zhonghe was filled with rage and began to curse Bai Bingyue fiercely.
His elder brother, Bai Zhongshan, had not only become a stepfather but also raised a viper!
"Ye Tian, kill everyone in the Bai family manor for me!"
"Leave Li Xingye for last. I want to torture him myself."
Bai Bingyue ignored Bai Zhonghe and ordered Ye Tian to kill everyone.
She was the illegitimate daughter of Wen Yuwei, not a member of the Bai family.
Since Bai Zhonghe called her a bastard, she would kill everyone.
"Bai Bingyue, you heartless madwoman, we have no enmity with you, why do you want to kill us?"
Yuan Chongjing and the other members of the influential families looked on in horror.
Bai Bingyue wouldn't even spare them, intending to have the Dragon King kill them all.
"Heh heh... Now that you've seen me like this and overheard my background, there's no need for you to live."
Bai Bingyue said coldly, utterly merciless.
After transforming into a pig-headed monster, her psychology had become even darker and more twisted.
"Since Bai'er wants you all dead, then die!"
"Dragon King's Emissaries, kill them all!"
This Ye Tian was a devoted lackey, directly issuing a kill order to his Dragon King's Emissaries.
"Yes, Dragon King."
These black-robed Dragon King's Emissaries immediately unleashed their terrifying killing intent and madly charged towards everyone present.
The strength of these Dragon King's Emissaries was formidable. Wielding their scythes, they reaped lives with ferocity.
Even Yuan Chongjin, the patriarch of a first-class influential family, was easily killed by them, let alone others.
The Bai family manor echoed with screams, turning into a scene of utter carnage.
.........
"Li Xingye, was it you who turned Bai'er into this pig-headed state?"
Ye Tian scrutinized Li Xingye, asking with a smirk.
Damn it!
Li Xingye was even more handsome than him, the Dragon King. No wonder Bai Bingyue wanted Li Xingye to marry into the Bai family back then.
