He had always known that the God of War was more optimistic about Ye Fan.
However, Tang Hao had never expected that the War God would have such a high opinion of Ye Fan?
To actually place the national fortune of Yan Xia's martial dao on Ye Fan alone.
"This... This Ye Fan, is he really... Is it really that good?"
Tang Hao still found it unbelievable, his eyes full of disbelief.
After all, this evaluation of Ye Fan by Ye Qingtian was too high, so high that it felt that unrealistic.
To Tang Hao's reaction, Ye Qingtian did not find it strange in the slightest.
After all, Ye Qingtian was also well aware of what this evaluation of his represented.
He knew even better how excellent and powerful anyone who could shoulder the fate of the country was.
"I don't know, I just have a feeling."
"As for whether my feeling is right or not, then let time verify it."
The God of War spoke in a deep voice, and within his low words, there was an inexplicable expectation.
After saying that, Ye Qingtian also left the hall.
However, when he reached the door, Ye Qingtian suddenly stopped and turned to Tang Hao, "I'll leave for a few days first, keep me informed if there's any news from the Fist King's side."
"Good."
Tang Hao was clearly still in shock from earlier and hadn't recovered, and only after a long moment of bewilderment did he return the word good.

The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into.
It was early evening and the lights were on.
The busy streets are crowded with people.
Men with women in their arms, parents with children in their arms, walk along the streets.
Quarrelling or talking, all sorts of things are happening all the time in this bustling city.
On the other hand, on the outskirts of the city, on the hill of the Truman family, it is much quieter than during the day.
In the Chu family manor, only a few young children were playing in the courtyard.
Against the night, an old man, however, slowly walked out of his room and strolled around in the manor.
Occasionally, he would take some sweets to the children he met on the way, and then ask them a few minor questions.
If Ye Fan had been here, he would have recognised at a glance that the old man in front of him was Han Lao, whom he had planted in the Chu family and had been in contact with.
It had been more than two years since Ye Fan and Elder Han had met after the first parting in Yunzhou.
Compared to that time, Han Lao was now much older.
Those old eyes were also much duller.
His white hair was dishevelled in the wind, and his straight body was now slightly stooped.
It looked like, in these two years, Elder Han's situation in the Chu family had changed greatly.
At the very least, the scenery and confidence of the past could no longer be seen in his demeanor.
"Shit!"
"What did you say?"
"Something has happened over in the Japanese country too? They need help urgently?"
"What a bunch of fucking losers!"
"Pass on my order."
"Immediately summon all relevant personnel to the hall for a meeting."
At this time, the angry voice of a young man suddenly came from the front.
This young man was by no means anyone else, it was none other than Chu Qi Tian, who was now in the ascendancy of the Chu Family.
The entire Chu Family was now controlled by his father, Chu Zhengliang.
As the son of Chu Zhengliang, Chu Qi Tian's status had naturally risen.
A large part of the family's financial advice has been entrusted to Chu Qi Tian.
However, these days, it is clear that Chu Qi Tian is not having a good time.
Especially in the last few days, the Chu family's properties around the world have been in trouble one after another. In addition, some of the subsidiary forces that were originally loyal to the Chu family suddenly rebelled against the Chu family, no longer honoured the Chu family, and no longer paid tribute.
All of these things came together and undoubtedly made Chu Qi Tian so anxious that he cursed directly on his way.
While cursing, Chu Qi Tian walked towards the family's meeting hall.
However, when he was passing by Han Lao, Chu Qi Tian suddenly stopped.
"En?"
"Who are you?"
"What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
This was already the core area of the Chu Family, and the people living around it were all the senior members of the Chu Family's clan.
This kind of place was strictly forbidden for ordinary people to enter.
What's more, it was night time.
Suddenly finding a raw face appearing here, Chu Qi Tian was naturally wary.
"I'm sorry, Young Master."
"I mistook my direction for a moment and entered here by mistake."
"I have disturbed young master, old slave will retreat now."
Han Lao bowed his head and his tone was all respectful, his entire posture was set very low.
After he finished speaking, Han Lao turned his head and headed back.
"Stop!"
Chu Qi Tian suddenly shouted at him, "Raise your head, let me take a look."
Chu Qi Tian said in a cold voice.
Han Lao had no choice but to do as he asked.
Upon seeing Han Lao's face, Chu Qi Tian instantly laughed.
That laugh was harsh and carried a sense of recklessness and arrogance.
"I said how I had a bit of an impression of you, I remembered, you were the old man who was the lapdog next to my eldest uncle before, right?"
"I remember that back then, you were very well respected by my eldest uncle."
"Several times when I asked you for help with something, your old man ignored it, in a very powerful way."
"What's wrong now?"
"Why are you so wilted in front of me?"
"Where was your authority?"
"Where's your old man's stature?"
Chu Qi Tian laughed wantonly, smugly, as if the victor was toying with his defeated men.
In the face of Chu Qi Tian's words, Han Lao merely lowered his head and did not speak.
"Old thing, why don't you get lost?"
"It's blocking this young master's path!"
After laughing, Chu Qi Tian suddenly changed his expression and with a bang, he kicked Han Lao directly, sending him to the side.
"Dog slave, when you were relying on my eldest uncle's favour and flaunting your authority at me, you didn't think that you would have this day, did you?"
"If it wasn't for the sake of your decades in the Chu family, on the day my father took control of the Chu family, this young master would have been the first to kill you!"
"Why don't you get lost?"
"If you want to live a few more years, be honest with me."
"Don't let me see you in places you shouldn't be again."
"Otherwise, the next time will definitely not be as simple as suffering a bit of flesh and blood!"
Chu Qi Tian warned in a cold voice.
After saying that, he took the several people behind him and left the place.
As for Han Lao, he forced himself to endure the pain and struggled to stand up from the ground.
"Grandpa Han, are you alright."
"My brother Tian has gone too far, he actually bullied you, an old man."
At this time, the children who had just accepted Han Lao's sweets ran over and helped Han Lao together.
Han Lao smiled in relief, "Grandpa Han is fine, grandpa's body is strong."
"Right, did you ask about the things Grandpa Han asked you to inquire about just now?"
Elder Han was obviously familiar with the few children.
After all, he had been a close vassal to the Chu family head back then, often following around Chu Zhenghong, and some of the children of the Chu family's core executives were familiar to Elder Han.
"Grandpa Han, I've asked."
"Mother said that she hadn't seen both Grandpa Xuan and Grandpa Hei for a long time either."
"Probably, they've been out on a mission and haven't come back."
The children spoke slowly.
When Elder Han heard this, he was slightly pleased in his heart and took these words to heart.
Yes, ever since after Ye Fan had decided that he would be going to Chu Mun Mountain in the near future, Elder Han had been using various ways to pry into the falsity of the Chu Family's strength.
In particular, the two Xuan Hei Lao, these two were the strongest guard forces known to the Chu Family, and were also the two people who posed the greatest threat to Ye Fan, so Han Lao naturally had to pay extra attention to them.
Now when he heard that the two Xuan Hei Lao were likely to be away on a mission and no longer in the family, Elder Han was surprised.
This was undoubtedly good news for Ye Fan's plans.
