16: If you don't accept it, you can only endure it. If you don't accept it, you have to hold it in.

Law Enforcement Hall Peak, Sin Domain Prison.

“Uncle, my grandfather died so unjustly, I will not accept it even in death.”

In the prison, Ye Fan roared hoarsely, covered in blood, and knelt heavily before Ye Tianxiong, kowtowing repeatedly:

“The supreme divine medicine, and those Sect treasures, were clearly stolen by Chu Tian himself. Even if Hongwu Grandfather leaked the news behind the scenes, it was not entirely his responsibility. Chu Tian is the main culprit with the greatest responsibility, and the Chu Family also has responsibility for lax oversight.”

“Why? Why did my uncle have to commit suicide to atone for the sin, and I was thrown into this Sin Domain Prison, while Chu Tian is safe and sound, and the Chu Family is completely unharmed?”

“And Ye Qiang, my elder brother, was ambushed by Chu Tian without reason in the Eternal Heaven Hall, severely injured, with most of his bones broken, and on the verge of death, yet Chu Tian didn’t have to bear any responsibility.”

“Ye Fan refuses to accept this.”

“I beg Uncle to help this nephew for the sake of my father.”

Ye Fan’s eyes were bloodshot as he frantically kowtowed to Ye Tianxiong: “I beg Uncle to order my release. This nephew must go out to take care of Elder Brother, and also Liu Yun. Because she helped me, the Liu Family is now under immense pressure. This nephew still has too many things to do and cannot die in this Sin Domain.”

“Please, please, save me.”

Bang, bang, bang…

Ye Fan kowtowed frantically, his forehead hitting the black stone floor, bleeding profusely, the heavy thud echoing across the empty, dark ground.

“After all these years, you are finally willing to open your mouth and ask me, your Uncle, for help.”

Ye Tianxiong stood with his back to Ye Fan, his hands clasped behind his back, and his majestic yet low voice rang out: “I know you feel wronged in your Heart-Nature, that you refuse to accept this, that you are unwilling?”

“But if you refuse to accept it, you can only endure it now. If you are unwilling, you must suppress it for me.”

“Your life was exchanged with your uncle’s life. Otherwise, no one in the entire Saint Heaven Sect could save you, not even I.

Moreover, you still don’t understand what it means for that little brat Chu Tian to break into the first place on the Earth Ranking.”

Ye Tianxiong’s voice grew deeper and heavier:

“My Saint Heaven Sect has a Legacy of a million years, rising and falling through long ages, declining countless times, yet still able to rise again. Why is this?

It’s because the Saint Heaven Sect’s philosophy is always about strength, about talent being supreme. As long as one has strength, even our two founding Families must make way for him.

The Ancestors of the three top Sect Families, Duanmu Saint Ancestor, Gu Demon Ancestor, and Su Divine Ancestor, were all rising stars of the Sect, not belonging to our founding Families, but as long as they had sufficient strength, our two founding Families had to let them sit on the Sect Master’s throne.

And these three Ancestors who revitalized the Sect were all once ranked first on the Hengtian Earth Ranking.

Do you understand?”

Bang!

Ye Fan’s face turned pale, and he slumped to the ground. Only at this moment did he understand why his Uncle, upon learning that Chu Tian had broken into the first place on the Earth Ranking, didn’t even care that his elder brother Ye Qiang, who had barely squeezed into the bottom of the Earth Ranking, was severely injured. Instead, he hurriedly tied him up and went to apologize to Chu Tian, bearing thorns on his back.

What is the concept of the three Ancestors who revitalized the Sect?

Without them, perhaps the Saint Heaven Sect would no longer exist today. They turned the tide, saved the Sect from dire straits, and led the Sect to rise again.

And they, in their youth, had also broken into the first place on the Earth Ranking.

The three top Families are now, within the Saint Heaven Sect, Families second only to the Ye Family and Chu Family, and are qualified to possess a mountain peak exclusively belonging to their own Family within the Sect.

And Chu Tian, though only eight years old, has already broken into the first place on the Earth Ranking, capable of rivaling these three Ancestors who revitalized the Sect.

Such a Prodigy, even without the Chu Family as a background, stealing some supreme divine medicine and treasures, probably wouldn’t be considered much.

And a good-for-nothing like himself, who almost affected the Cultivation of such a Prodigy, was truly heinous and unforgivable.

If Chu Tian killed him, no one would say anything.

Ye Hongwu used his own life to bear the greatest sin.

“I killed my uncle, I am a good-for-nothing.” Ye Fan’s eyes were bloodshot, and he cried out loud.

Ye Tianxiong’s voice was heavy, like a sledgehammer, as he slowly turned around and gazed at Ye Fan’s bloodshot eyes: “Remember, this is a world where strength is respected. Strength is the foundation of everything. Is it useful that you have always endured and kept a low profile?

I will tell you now, it’s useless.

Crying, what’s the use of crying?

You swallowed so many divine medicines and Sect treasures, clearly possessing strength, yet you kept a low profile, endured, hid behind the scenes, didn’t contend or fight, and didn’t even have a name on the Hengtian Board.

If this isn’t a good-for-nothing, a coward, what is it?

Looking through ancient and modern times, how many Emperor Venerables and heroes were not famous in their youth, dominating the world, pushing their way to the top?”

Ye Fan wiped away the tears on his face, kowtowed heavily, letting out a loud bang, his entire body radiating Qi, no longer hiding his strength: “Uncle, this nephew was wrong. Please help me and show this nephew a clear path.”

“After this nephew goes out, I will challenge the Hengtian Earth Ranking and the Forging Bone Rankings. I will no longer hide my strength and pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger.”

“This nephew wants to challenge Chu Tian and defeat him with my own hands.”

“I want to avenge my grandfather and elder brother.”

“I want to rescue Liu Yun. Chu Tian’s Heart-Nature and methods are so malicious; Liu Yun will not have a good end following him.”

“Qi and blood like a Dragon, nearly eight hundred thousand catties of strength.”

Looking at Ye Fan’s profound Qi, Ye Tianxiong sighed and bent down to help him up: “Uncle chose to end his own life to protect you. But with such strength, you have indeed lived up to his sacrifice.

You were born with a Hongmeng Saint Bone in your glabella. In terms of talent, you are not even inferior to that brat Chu Tian’s Chaos Divine Demon Body, a Prodigy appearing once in a million years for my Ye Family. But while you were in your mother’s womb, you were harmed by a villain using a Divine Ability, and after birth, you were poisoned, rendering all your meridians useless. Your parents died searching for supreme divine medicine to save you.

I, your Uncle, have secretly investigated for more than ten years, and have secretly screened the strong individuals within the Ye Family, and even the major Families including the Chu Family, but have never been able to find that villain.

The reason Uncle didn’t take care of you all these years was because I was afraid that you would be noticed again by that villain and harmed. I could only entrust Uncle Hongwu to secretly look after you.”

“Uncle, you…” Ye Fan trembled all over upon hearing this, his eyes turning red.

“There isn’t much time, don’t speak, listen to Uncle.”

Ye Tianxiong’s face became stern as he turned around, his hands clasped behind his back: “What I, your Uncle, did was for the future of the Family, to protect the Prodigy of my Ye Family.

But this time, although Uncle is the Sect Master, the Law Enforcement Hall is a Domain controlled by the Chu Family, and I cannot directly overstep my authority to release you.

In this Sin Domain Prison, Spiritual Qi is depleted, and even a peerless mighty figure would quickly become a cripple.

But you are different. You have many divine medicine powers hidden within your body. Take this opportunity to temper your strength well and absorb the power within your body.

I, your Uncle, will find an opportunity to release you from the outside.”

Ye Tianxiong turned and stared into Ye Fan’s eyes, his voice solemn: “But you must remember, the only thing that can truly save you is your own powerful strength.”

Ye Fan was silent for a moment, then gently touched his glabella. Instantly, a purple sacred light flashed by.

“Uncle, in the past ten years, this nephew has also had a fortuitous encounter, obtaining a supreme treasure, the heavenly profound divine ring, passed down from ancient times. With the help of the heavenly profound divine ring, the Hongmeng Saint Bone in my glabella has shown signs of recovery.”

“That’s why this nephew’s strength has improved so quickly.”

“But this nephew just discovered that Chu Tian stomped on my arm and actually snatched the heavenly profound divine ring.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Tianxiong was stunned, and the scene of Chu Tian suddenly squatting down, tormenting Ye Fan, and stomping on his arm quickly flashed through his mind.

At that time, he thought that Chu Tian was deliberately retaliating and tormenting Ye Fan, and he didn’t pay much attention.

Ye Fan had the power of divine medicine in his body; even if all his bones were shattered, as long as he didn’t die, he would quickly recover as before.

“That little brat Chu Tian’s goal was actually the divine ring on your finger.” Ye Tianxiong’s face turned extremely gloomy.

“What a cunning and vicious little brat.”

“Uncle, the heavenly profound divine ring is very precious. You must help this nephew get it back.” Ye Fan’s voice was urgent, his heart bleeding.

Ye Tianxiong shook his head. It was too late now. If it had been discovered on the spot, he could have easily taken it back, but now this was a dispute between juniors, and he could not intervene, otherwise, the strong individuals within the Chu Family would also interfere.

“And about that little girl from the Liu Family, you don’t need to worry too much. She won’t die. At most, her Family will be implicated and suffer some damage and sacrifice. The Chu Family also needs that little girl to cover their face.”

Ye Tianxiong began to advise Ye Fan. Since the Hongmeng Saint Bone had already begun to recover, he should not worry too much. The current task was to quickly improve his strength.

He originally thought that Chu Tian was absolutely invincible in the Forging Bone Realm and could only be slowly planned against and suppressed.

But he didn’t expect that Ye Fan’s Hongmeng Saint Bone had actually begun to recover. Perhaps he really had a chance to suppress Chu Tian in the Forging Bone Realm.

“As long as you can prove that you are stronger than Chu Tian, everything will not be a problem.” Ye Tianxiong encouraged Ye Fan, and then left.

“It’s only one million five hundred thousand catties of strength. I can do it too. Uncle, believe me, I will take revenge with my own hands.” Ye Fan’s hysterical roar echoed through the Sin Domain Prison.
