Although the king had never mentioned the evil lord to Ye Xunhuan, Ye Xunhuan was well aware in his heart that the king must have been suspicious long ago, and might even already know.
He just hadn't spoken up, because after all, some things don't need to be spoken, it's enough for everyone to be aware of them.
Dragon's Head fell into silence, though he really didn't want to admit it, he had to concede that what Ye Xunhuan said was the truth!
Someone as astute as the king, how could he not have suspicions?
Seeing Dragon's Head silent, Ye Xunhuan spoke again, "Regardless of whether I go to the Ye family or not, he will have suspicions in his heart, and he won't spare me. So why shouldn't I go?"
"To put it bluntly, if I fail to fight against the king and end up killed by him, then I'll never be able to step into the Ye family in this lifetime." Ye Xunhuan said lightly to the king: "Rather than that, why shouldn't I just follow my heart!"
