"Are these the dolls for this year? There are a lot of them." An old man with white hair and beard came over and looked at the children of the Ye family with the same eyes as he looked at a piglet. Except for Liam Ye, the other children shuddered when they saw his eyes.

The old man couldn't help but look at Liam Ye again, and saw Liam Ye smile. For a five-year-old child, this smile was a little shy, but of course it was very cute.

"This baby is interesting. What's your name?" He didn't ask Liam Ye what his ranking was, which family he was from, or whose son or grandson he was, because these were meaningless to the old man.

As the manager of the Ye family's underground city, even Leonard Ye, the head of the family, needs to give him some face.

"Liam Ye," Liam Ye blinked her eyes, her voice was crisp, but her smile was still delicate and shy, "Wu is flawless like white jade, Ying is singing like an oriole."

...

...

...

As a member of the Ye family, the old man certainly couldn't have been unaware of the middle character of this generation of children, "Wu". However, he didn't expect that this kid would introduce himself like this. After being stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Interesting, interesting. If someone asks you your name, you will say it like this?"

"If my uncle asked me, of course I knew my last name. If someone else asked me, I would naturally tell them my last name."

"Oh? What does this word ye mean to you?"

"Of course it's Ye from Qinan Ye Clan."

The old man shook his head, "This isn't very pretty, how about changing it to 'falling leaves rustling'?"

"Uncle, this is not domineering."

"I pray that Nan Ye will be domineering?"

The little kid nodded affirmatively, "Of course."

However, he didn't know that what Liam Ye was thinking in his heart was that the Ye family of Qinan was really domineering in Qinan. As a local rich man with no other family, he would naturally not be domineering enough in the future. But when he said that his surname was Zhao, the Zhao of the Heiyin Zhao family, he would naturally be so domineering that almost everyone would change color when he heard it.

Unfortunately, in comparison, he still prefers the Ye family. Although there are many people here that he hates, they are human beings after all, not perverts.

The old man nodded with satisfaction, showing a happy look, "I haven't seen such an interesting kid for a long time." He handed a transparent emerald green jade card to Liam Ye, "Here, this is your uncle's leaf card, you can play with it. If you run into any trouble in the future, come to this old house to find your uncle, and I will help you once!"

Grace Ye's face changed slightly, and she took a closer look at Liam Ye, because this leaf card was not simple, it was equivalent to a promise. The Ye family was a noble family, and every member of the Ye family had his or her own unique leaf card. Once the leaf card was out, it was a promise worth a thousand gold.

In the past, although Liam Ye was good-looking, he was not particularly special. He spoke very little, like a saw-mouthed gourd. He was a little at odds with Mason Ye, who was very prestigious in the Ye family school. Because of this, he was not very popular in the family school.

I didn't expect to vote for this person.

The group of people went up to the elevator pavilion on the side of the stone platform and fell steadily for dozens of meters before stepping on the marble floor. Two barefoot, black-haired young men and women in simple white robes came over and saluted the old man. The old man waved his hand casually and said, "Okay, take these kids to test their aptitude."

"yes."

In this huge underground city, the staff naturally do not wear white coats or even protective clothing like in the science fiction world. However, compared to the maids and servants of the Ye family outside who are dressed brightly, all the maids and servants here are pretty, dressed in white robes, without any pendants, and even barefoot, without shoes or socks, so that they walk silently. All the craftsmen and weapon masters who work here, regardless of gender, wear blue robes, with plain faces and no jewelry, and only wear a pair of white cotton socks on their feet.

To be honest, the aptitude test process is not a good memory. These seemingly young men and women were very strong. They ignored the boys and girls' screams and rudely stripped them and threw them into a large white marble pool. The pool was full of thick black liquid medicine. An unpleasant bitter and even pungent smell rushed into the nose. Weaker children like Ye WEthan did not stand firmly when they were thrown in, and were even choked by the medicine, and their faces turned green immediately.

But everyone endured it. Even the most spoiled children did not dare to lose their temper with the white-robed maids and attendants. Just the sight of this magnificent underground city had worn away most of their usual arrogance. What's more, even a fool could see that here, status and position had no say. Only the old man just now had the final say.

After soaking for two hours, even without the psychic meter, Liam Ye knew that it was almost 7:30 when they came in, and it should be noon now...

But on this day, they couldn't expect to have anything to eat.

After soaking enough, they were thrown into a clean pool and washed several times before being put into clean white linen clothes and pants. They were then led one by one into a silver-grey metal door. The treatment here was much better than outside. At least there were a few cool metal stools for them to lean on. But at this moment, a feeling of uneasiness began to spread among the children, and no one cared to sit down and rest.

Even in aristocratic families, aptitude represents everything, and this short period of time can determine their fate for the rest of their lives. Several children were so nervous that they even vomited, but they had not eaten anything all day, so they couldn't vomit anything.

In front of them was a rather tall metal instrument, which looked a bit old, but had dozens of metal tentacles moving slowly, which looked quite creepy. In fact, ordinary aptitude testers were not expensive. Civilians could pay one string of money to test the aptitude of their children, and it was not that troublesome at all.

Liam Ye looked at the instrument in front of her and smiled faintly. The reason why it was so troublesome for the aristocratic families to test their qualifications was because this machine could not only test the qualifications of warriors or Qi cultivators, but also measure the various physical indicators and potentials of all children. Most importantly, it could test whether these children could become a witch!

Unlike warriors and Qi cultivators, witches are servants of God. All witches must be from aristocratic families. Not to mention commoners, even children of noble families are not qualified to become witches. To be a witch, one must have noble blood.

Back then, Ye Qishang possessed extremely high talent and had the physique to become a witch. When she was five years old, she was taken away by someone from the capital that night.

Of course, none of these dozen children could become a witch.

Liam Ye's smile was slightly mocking. There was nothing good about being a witch. Anyway... almost all of those people were perverts! Thinking of this, he almost wanted to grind his teeth, wishing he could bite the chest of that person in his memory again, but in the end, he just sighed.

In the end, when he died, that was the only sentence he could hear so clearly.

"...No matter where you go, you will not be able to escape! I will torture your loved ones to death one by one, and engrave the most vicious curse on your descendants for generations to come! This is a blood curse, and it will last forever!"

Liam Ye was in a complicated mood, he was clearly about to be beaten to ashes by those eight saints, so why could he hear every word of this passage so clearly?

The resentment and viciousness in it was almost solidified into substance.

Liam Ye knew his ability very well. Since he said so, the eight saints would definitely not escape his revenge. Even if he heard this curse, he would shudder, okay? If he died at that time, at least someone would avenge him, so it seemed that he was not doing too badly.

But Liam Ye couldn't feel grateful or touched by that person. He was too complicated and a pervert. Liam Ye asked himself...if he was given another choice in his previous life, he - probably would stay as far away from him as possible.

"Liam Ye!"

"Which one is Liam Ye!"

He suddenly came to his senses, stood up and walked towards the metal lump.

He was not at all uneasy like other children when it came to testing his aptitude. He was just doing it again, and again he received surprise, envy, even jealousy and conspiracy from almost everyone.

Aristocratic family has more than just its glamorous side.

A bright golden light lit up, reflecting the astonished faces of all the children and servants in white.

"Oh my god! It's a heavenly aptitude! Five, four, three, two... Heavenly aptitude! Heavenly aptitude! Liam Ye! Heavenly aptitude!"

"Go and call the butler!"

"And Miss Qi Fei! Oh, call the elders on duty today as well!"

...

...

All the servants and maids became busy, leaving only a dozen children, whose faces changed from astonishment to envy, and then to jealousy, until their eyes turned red with jealousy.

Liam Ye was laughing, laughing at the ignorance of these servants and maids and even the Ye family members.

As the Ye family was a declining family, even at its most glorious time, it had never produced a person of true super-heavenly rank. Therefore, they naturally thought that they were of the first-grade Tian. In fact, the light emitted by this machine now far exceeded the golden light that could be produced by the first-grade Tian.

Because he has the Golden Thunder True Martial Body, a super-natural aptitude that only the Black Yin Zhao family can have. If the person sitting in the imperial city had known earlier that he had the Golden Thunder True Martial Body, no matter how much pressure he was under, he would not be willing to send himself to the Ye family. In the Zhao family, the first rank of the heaven is nothing. In every generation, there are always a dozen or twenty children who are the first, second, and third rank of the heaven. Even a heavenly guard like Qing Su is not that few. However, the Golden Thunder True Martial Body, which is extremely rare in the family bloodline inheritance, is not a cabbage that can be picked up easily.

He even possessed a natural sword heart and a sword spirit body. Well, he knew that the so-called superior talent and favored child of heaven were not popular attributes among the protagonists of time travel. Instead, they were mostly used to set off the protagonist or as the main cannon fodder...

Aren’t the loser type or the one who plays the pig and eats the tiger the most common protagonists?

But Liam Ye had already decided that in this life, he would walk a path that others would never be able to catch up with, and then he would step on them one by one under his feet, so that they would never be able to turn over!
