28: This is the first time and the last time
"Bastard."
"You are so young, yet so vicious, relentlessly pursuing and trying to ruin my Ye family's Prodigy."
Ye Tianxiong let out a low roar, staring at Chu Tian, his Evil Qi permeating, and a terrifying sense of majesty radiating.
As an Imperial Dominator on the Hengtian Board and the Sect Master of Saint Heaven Sect, ruling over millions of miles of land, the majesty Ye Tianxiong had accumulated was extremely terrifying. With a single glare, the aura of long-held power could make ordinary adults' legs go weak, instinctively daring not to meet his gaze.
However, Chu Tian, having lived two lives as a godfather, possessed a will no less formidable than Ye Tianxiong's. With a cold sneer, he met Ye Tianxiong's gaze: "Sect Master, as the Saint of the Sect, I am upholding the Sect's rules: the strong are respected, and only the excellent can obtain all resources.
And your nephew, Ye Fan, has no talent, no strength, and has made no contribution to the Sect. His private consumption of so many divine medicines and treasures, wasting the Sect's vast resources, was originally a capital offense.
If Ye Hongwu hadn't committed suicide to take the blame, and the Ye family hadn't handed over a portion of the divine medicines, he would have died long ago.
Even more, that good-for-nothing dared to use the excuse of having saved my fiancée to repeatedly approach my fiancée Liu Yun and sow discord between us. For that alone, I can kill him ten thousand times.
What kind of good-for-nothing is he, to dare to step on my head?
I am merely respecting my true self."
Facing Ye Tianxiong's terrifying majesty, Chu Tian's eyes were cold and indifferent, completely fearless. He took a step forward, standing a short distance in front of his father, Chu Tian King, and said coldly:
"Sect Master, there is no room for negotiation in this matter."
"Ye Fan must die!"
"I hope this is the first time, and also the last."
"All uncles and Grandpa, bear witness for Chu Tian. If next time, the Ye family, for any reason, releases Ye Fan from Sin Domain Prison, I will dare to follow my true self and, according to Sect rules, kill him on the spot."
Terrifying Killing Intent erupted from Chu Tian's cold eyes, and his tender face was filled with a murderous aura unsuited to his age.
At this moment, the shock felt by the surrounding high-ranking Sect members and Grand Elders was simply unimaginable.
They had never expected Chu Tian, at such a young age, to be so bold and unyielding, confronting Ye Tianxiong face-to-face.
Not to mention that Chu Tian was only eight years old; even many Disciples in the Sect who were over twenty and close to igniting their divine fire would tremble and not even dare to raise their heads when facing Ye Tianxiong.
What an incredibly resolute and unshakeable mind. How many Cultivators sought this but could not obtain it, and would actively go out to temper themselves, hone their will, and experience myriad tribulations.
But Chu Tian, how old was he, yet he seemed to possess it naturally.
Chu Tian King's heart trembled violently as he looked at his son, truly feeling as if he were understanding Chu Tian for the first time.
Had his son been suppressing himself all these years, accommodating him, his old father?
After all, with Chu Tian's talent, he should have long since become famous throughout the continent, attracting widespread attention and being enveloped by countless halos.
It was because of him that his son stayed cooped up on Holy Emperor Peak all day, and when he occasionally went out, it was to the Liu family to find Liu Yun.
But even so, he was still schemed against by outsiders.
"Congratulations, Host, you have triggered the second stage of 'Villain No Longer Low-Key': Defeat Hui Mei, the Luck Child of Cihang Holy Sect. Reward: Ten thousand destiny points and one enlightenment tea tree sapling, an Innate Spirit Medicine." The System's gentle voice sounded in Chu Tian's ear.
After Chu Tian finished speaking, he stomped his foot and, without waiting for Ye Tianxiong's reply, shot off the high platform and landed on the arena.
"Chu Tian, Saint of Saint Heaven Sect." Chu Tian curled a cold smile at the corner of his lips and beckoned to Hui Mei ahead: "Don't waste time, less talk, I'll defeat you in three moves."
Boom!
Upon these words, the entire arena fell silent.
Then, a violent cheer erupted in the square. The Sect Disciples, who had been suppressed for too long, finally unleashed their pent-up emotions.
They had watched an entire evening of the Sect's famous Prodigies being effortlessly defeated by Hui Mei in various ways, trembling upon entering the stage, and even Ye Fan being scared into running away. They had truly had enough.
This was the territory of the Saint Heaven Sect, the number one Sect on the continent. Why should an outsider like Xiao Guangtou be so arrogant?
"You are Chu Tian, who suppressed me on the Forging Bone Rankings and also snatched the number one spot on the Earth Ranking from my cousin Hui Lian."
"Very good, you finally dare to show your face and accept my challenge."
Hui Mei raised a hand and rubbed his bald head, the smile on his demonic face somewhat twisted: "You're certainly arrogant, but I wonder how much strength you truly possess."
Boom!
Hui Mei moved his foot, his figure instantly vanishing from his original spot, his body transforming into streaks of afterimages, appearing everywhere on the arena.
At this moment, it was as if hundreds or thousands of Hui Mei were simultaneously attacking Chu Tian on the arena.
Hui Mei's words were arrogant, but when facing Chu Tian, he showed no carelessness and directly used his Divine Ability Martial Skill.
"Phantom Dragon Secret Art. This is Cihang Holy Sect's top-tier movement Divine Ability. It was created by their eighteenth generation Holy Lord by observing the soaring trajectory of the Primordial Dragon. It ranks among the top ten movement Divine Abilities in all realms and is extremely difficult to Cultivate. No one in Cihang Holy Sect has successfully Cultivated it for many years." Elder Duanmu exclaimed in a low voice, his eyes filled with shock.
The other high-ranking Sect members also had expressions of dismay in their eyes.
At the Forging Bone Realm, he had already comprehended a top-tier Divine Ability, and had even achieved initial success. This Xiao Guangtou's talent was truly astonishing.
"No wonder Cihang Holy Sect, knowing that their Saint possessed one hundred fifty thousand catties of strength, still tacitly approved of his actions." A high-ranking Sect member said in a low voice.
"With his spirit, he can unleash power exceeding two million catties. Coupled with this top-tier Divine Ability, he is basically invincible in the Forging Bone Realm."
"It's not unfair even if Little Holy Son loses to him, after all, he's two years younger and hasn't had time to Cultivate the Sect's Divine Ability."
"I hope Little Holy Son can withstand three moves."
At this moment, Ye Tianxiong's face was extremely grim. However, he didn't watch the battle on the arena but turned to Chu Tian King, saying in a low voice: "Second Brother, is the Chu family still under your control? How can you let Xiao Tian be so reckless and unbridled? Didn't we agree to work together to revitalize the Sect and never engage in internal strife?"
Ye Fan possessed the Hongmeng Saint Bone. Although it was tainted, there was still immense hope, and Ye Tianxiong was unwilling to give up no matter what.
"It's not that I, your uncle, don't love him, but Xiao Tian's nature is so cruel, vindictive, and narrow-minded. It has now affected the relationship between our two families. As his father, shouldn't you rein him in?" Ye Tianxiong's voice grew colder.
"Tianying made contributions to the Sect back then, and within the Ye family, I can't really..."
"Big Brother, you should stop now." Suddenly, Chu Tian King's low voice sounded.
Ye Tianxiong's heart trembled, but then he saw Chu Tian King raise his head and stare into his eyes, saying word by word: "Big Brother, you should understand that Chu Tian is my only son. These past years, because of these matters within the Sect, I have wronged him too much."
"We both know what's right and wrong in our hearts."
"Xiao Tian did nothing wrong this time."
"As his father, I will never again, under the guise of Sect unity, restrain him or limit him."
"I cannot let my son down again."
