Hearing Wang Ba's relentless barrage of threats, Wang Tian's expression flickered subtly with inner turmoil. The threat involving the Main Clan Envoys was no empty bark; that internal political pressure had long been the chain binding his hands.I knew all along he coveted the position of Patriarch... But I never expected him to plot this far just to bring me down—even provoking all the elders so that Wang Chen becomes my weak spot! Wang Tian thought bitterely.However, before tension could tighten its grip over the square any further, a pair of casual footsteps echoed from behind Wang Tian.Wang Chen stepped forward. He now stood side-by-side with his adoptive father, looking at Wang Ba with a subtle smile laced with deep disdain."Becoming Patriarch solely by riding the coat-tails of your son's reputation?" Wang Chen’s voice drifted calmly, yet it instantly cut through the noisy chatter of the elders."You constantly glorify Wang Yu as the 'supreme genius' of this branch clan... You

But suddenly..."YOU BASTARD! DIE, WANG CHEN!"A hysterical scream burst from Wang Ba's throat as his exploding rage consumed all reason. The Earth-Grade Meridian Restoration Pill had been the sole remaining hope to heal Wang Yu, his eldest son, who lay dying from permanent meridian damage. Seeing his son's last hope reduced to ashes right before his eyes, Wang Ba’s eyes turned blood-red, burning with pure, concentrated intent to kill.BOOM!The aura of Wang Ba's five-star Earth Warrior Realm violently exploded! The ground beneath his feet cracked and shattered as his body shot through the air like a streak of gray lightning, driving a lethal claw of Qi straight toward Wang Chen’s throat."Return the restoration pill or die, you bastard!"Facing a lethal attack from an Supreme Elder, Wang Chen's golden eyes narrowed. Though his cultivation was only at the Five-Star Novice Warrior level, the Dragon Flame dwelling within him might just be enough to withstand the impact.However, just be

Hearing his adoptive son's cold rage, Wang Tian's expression instantly turned conflicted. A flash of deep guilt dwelt behind his eyes. As the Clan Leader, he was truthfully helpless against the internal political pressure launched by the elders' faction during Wang Chen's absence.Wang Tian took a step forward, reaching out a hand as he let out a heavy sigh."Chen'er... this is not what you think. There is a reason behind all of this...""A reason?!" Grand Elder Wang Ba interrupted with a cold, condemnatory snort.Wang Ba stepped forward, cutting Wang Tian off without a shred of respect. His cunning eyes scanned Wang Chen from head to toe. While the initial shock of Wang Chen's cultivation soaring to the Five-Star Novice Fighter Realm had briefly taken him aback, decades of arrogance as the Grand Elder quickly eroded that astonishment."Enough, Clan Leader! There is no need to explain anything to this insolent brat!" Wang Ba barked, his raspy, heavy voice booming across the entire pla

The echo of Wang Chen's sharp voice struck the ears of the dozens of armored soldiers. The heavy pressure behind his words, dripping with killing intent, caused the surrounding air to freeze instantly."W-Wang Chen...?! H-Has he really returned?!"The soldiers stood frozen. Their eyes widened in utter disbelief as they stared at the youth before them. Shock paralyzed their nerves for several seconds. How could this young man, who had been gone for less than a month, have already returned? What's more, they could feel the surge of Qi and murderous aura surrounding him—it bore no resemblance whatsoever to the "meridianless trash" they used to look down upon!"H-How could he be back so fast?!" one soldier whispered with trembling lips, unconsciously taking a half-step back.The fierce-looking Guard Captain swallowed hard, cold sweat dripping down his temples. Though his own eyes witnessed Wang Chen standing tall with a suffocating aura, his pride as an armored captain forced his fear to

With swift and decisive steps, Wang Chen broke through the bustling crowd at the city gate. His robe fluttered in the wind as he charged straight toward the Wang Clan's territory. Inside his spatial ring, the Earth-tier Meridian Restoration Pill radiated a glimmer of hope that kept his spirit burning.'It's only been a few days... Mei Lu should be safe inside the dungeon... Mei Lu, wait for me!' Even though he was thrilled to have secured the Earth-tier Meridian Restoration Pill and could now resume his cultivation, an ominous foreboding crept inexplicably into his mind.Without wasting a moment, Wang Chen directed his steps toward the clan's main hall, where the elders and high-ranking officials usually gathered. The familiar stone pathway crossed through the center of the clan settlement, leading him past the vast plaza typically used for training young disciples.However, the instant his foot touched the edge of the plaza, Wang Chen froze in his tracks."..."His golden eyes widene

The sun began to dip below the western horizon, casting a golden-orange glow that pierced through the lingering wisps of medicinal steam in the outer courtyard of the Medicine Pavilion."Mei Lu... Wait for my return. Two months is far too long... Now, I shall return immediately and set you free..." Wang Chen muttered coldly.As Wang Chen set foot outside the pavilion's main area, a magnificent carriage stood neatly parked beneath the shade of a lush tree. It was drawn by two Two-Horned Wind Wolves—mid-tier demon beasts famed for their incredible speed and remarkable endurance.Beside the beautifully carved sandalwood door of the carriage stood a figure with porcelain skin, clad in a light blue silk gown. Gu Qingcheng offered a subtle smile the moment she saw Wang Chen's shadow approach."It seems your business with my crazy master went smoothly," Gu Qingcheng called out in her signature gentle voice, breaking the evening silence."And, since you were able to walk out... that means you
