He already lost an Alchemy Emperor father. He did not wish to lose a lower realms father again!
With the scare after the incident, Ye Yuan's hatred of Ren Xingchun already reached the verge of erupting.
"Father, Mother, Yuan-er is incapable and made you two suffer!" Ye Yuan reproached himself.
Ye Yuan also sighed deeply in his heart. His current strength was still too weak!
If he had sufficient strength, Ye Hang and Ren Xingchun absolutely wouldn't have left by themselves, and also would not have feared that Ren Xingchun would harm him and not dare to even reveal his name.
Ren Hongling already recollected her emotions at this time and said to Ye Yuan with a smile, "Silly child. We can have today, your father and I are already with joy. Returning to Wu Fang City is your father and my decision. How can it be blamed on you?"
Ye Hang pulled a long face and said, "You rascally boy, don't take everything upon yourself!"
As he said, Ye Hang gave a sigh and said, "To really talk about incapable, Father is the most useless! Back then, I couldn't protect your mother and you well, and almost caused you mother and son pair to lose your lives. Father-in-law he couldn't accept his daughter becoming a cripple. I can understand that too."
These years, Ye Hang blamed himself very much secretly too.
Although he and Ren Hongling loved each other very much, he had indeed eloped with Ren Xingchun's daughter. And Ren Hongling back then was even Wu Fang City's future and hope.
When they escaped to the Southern Domain back then, they did not expect to run into a group of martial artists with malicious intentions.
Ren Hongling was pregnant at the time and accidentally affected the fetal circulation flow. At that time, Ye Yuan who was still in her w.o.m.b was already in danger of dying.
In order to preserve Ye Yuan at that time, she poured all of her essence energy into her w.o.m.b. But because her dantian was damaged, she herself became incapable of amassing essence energy again.
This increased the guilt in Ye Hang's heart even more.
It was precisely because so that he would think of returning to the Northern Domain and get Ren Xingchun's forgiveness.
But they never expected that Ren Xingchun was actually extreme to such a degree.
Seeing Ye Hang's expression, Ye Yuan's heart winced in pain, and he said solemnly, "Who said that Father is useless? Isn't it just a Peak Alchemy Sovereign? Father, your future accomplishments will surely be above his!"
Ye Hang laughed in spite of himself and said, "Silly boy, your grandfather is already standing at the pinnacle of the Endless World. Surpassing him, wouldn't I ascend to the Divine Realm?"
Ye Yuan laughed too and said, "What does ascending to the Divine Realm even count as? I've already realized now that the legacy I obtained absolutely far exceeds the Endless World's standards. Ascending to the Divine Realm is but a matter of time too."
Right at this time, an immensely powerful pressure enveloped the entire Feng Ya Pavilion. Everyone's faces changed.
Ye Yuan's expression darkened, and he said to Ye Hang and Ren Hongling, "Father, Mother, just stay here. I'll face-off with this old fellow!
To be able to release such a powerful pressure, who else could it be but Ren Xingchun?
Towards Ren Xingchun, Ye Yuan did not have the least bit of a favorable impression.
Ye Yuan casually laid down a set of restrictions to stop the two of them from coming out, but he himself then turned around and went out. He wanted to have a look at just how much of a scoundrel this old fellow was!
Ye Yuan came out from inside the house. A slightly aged looking silhouette appeared in the courtyard. Who could it be but Ren Xingchun?
Bang!
At first sight, Ren Xingchun directly slapped a palm at Xu Zihui.
Xu Zihui, Ren Yujie, and Ren Dong were all in the courtyard waiting for Ye Yuan. Ren Xingchun actually did not say a word and directly made a move!
Disregarding that Xu Zihui did not dare to resist, even if he really resisted, it was impossible to be Ren Xingchun's match too.
This palm directly beat Xu Zihui to heavy injuries.
Seeing this scene, Ye Yuan was already enraged to the extreme and reproached indignantly, "Old fogey, you dare to make a move and hurt people!"
Ren Xingchun's temper was clearly not good either, and he likewise rebuked furiously, "Humph! Living off me but secretly helping others! Leaving him his wretched life is already showing mercy! Boy, isn't your hand extending a bit too long? Don't think that with Old Hai backing you up, I won't dare to do anything to you! You actually dared to interfere with my family affairs, even if I killed you, I believe that Old Hai would have nothing to say either!"
"Father, he is . . ." Ren Yujie anxiously tried to explain.
"You shut your mouth for this old man! Your gall is getting bigger and bigger now, to actually dare defy my orders! After I take care of this brat, I'll deal with you after!"
"Old fogey, if you have the capabilities, kill me together with them today too!" Ye Yuan said with a cold smile.
"Humph! Do you really take this old man to be made out of clay? Since you want to die, this old man will fulfill your wish!"
As he said, Ren Xingchun actually really lifted his palm and struck towards Ye Yuan.
Right at this time, Ren Dong stepped forward bravely and blocked in front of Ye Yuan.
"Grandfather, if you want to kill Master, then kill me off too!" Ren Dong said with cold eyes.
Ren Xingchun's expression choked up, and he said furiously, "You! Each and every one of you is rebelling! You move to one side for me!"
At this time, a beautiful profile slowly appeared in front of Ye Yuan and said coolly, "Apologies, Mister Ye. Originally, I didn't want to disturb you. But this place is too noisy."
Once Yue Mengli appeared, the power emitting faintly from her body immediately scattered Ren Xingchun's pressure in all directions.
Ren Xingchun's expression became apprehensive. Everything in this courtyard was under his control. But he actually did not discover just how this woman showed up!
Furthermore, the aura emanating off from this woman's body unexpectedly made him feel daunted!
There was actually such a powerful martial artist around Ye Yuan still?
What background did this boy have? He was seriously too mysterious!
Ye Yuan said with a laugh, "This old man only knows how to be fierce all day long. I want to see if his bones are really that tough! Li-er, help me take good care of this old fogey!"
Yue Mengli said apathetically, "Alright."
As she said, Yue Mengli gently lifted her finger. The situation in the entire courtyard changed drastically!
Ren Xingchun's expression changed dramatically when he saw the situation; his mouth was unable to close no matter what.
"Boundless Realm! This . . . This is absolutely the power belonging to Boundless Realm! This . . . How is this possible?"
Chapter 530 - You're Regretting!
With Ren Xingchun's shout, everyone was taken aback from shock.
What kind of boundary Boundless Realm was, everyone present was all too clear.
This was power not belonging to the Endless World. How could it possibly appear on such a young girl?
But with Ren Xingchun's realm, how could he possibly identify wrongly?
With this, the gazes that everyone looked at Ye Yuan with underwent a change again.
A Boundless Realm expert actually willingly followed by Ye Yuan's side. What kind of concept was this?
Ren Dong was the first to react and begged Ye Yuan, "Master, although Grandfather he's rather overbearing, his offense doesn't deserve death! You . . . You let him go, alright?"
Ren Xingchun's mouth moved, wanting to say something, but he ultimately did not speak.
Facing a Boundless Realm experts, he seriously did not have any confidence to continue being arrogant.
Seeing Ren Xingchun's deflated look, Ye Yuan could not help fee
ling secretly pleased inwardly.
Yue Mengli could not really make a move. But using her move to deter a little was still very effective.
This kind of stirring up heaven and earth essence energy was just the effort of lifting a finger to Yue Mengli. But in the eyes of Divine Traversing Realms, it was a god-like realm.
A Boundless Realm in the Lower Realms represented invincibility!
Even with Ren Xingchun's domineering character, he did not dare to act rashly in front of Yue Mengli either.
"Forget it, forget it. Li-er, put it away. Who asked me to take in such an obedient disciple. If I killed his blood-related grandfather, this master and disciple relation wouldn't carry on well in the future," Ye Yuan deliberately said with an emotional sigh.
Yue Mengli nodded and kept her aura, becoming a harmless little girl again. She then stood behind Ye Yuan.
Ren Dong was 'sold' by Ye Yuan without even him knowing it. Seeing Yue Mengli cease, he could not help being overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!"
Ren Xingchun also recovered at this point. Hearing Ren Dong calling master over and over again, he could not refrain from saying angrily, "Dong-er, what are you calling him? What right does he, a Sea Transformation Realm brat, have to be your master?"
Ren Dong shook his head and said, "He's not my Martial Path master but my Alchemy Path master!"
Ren Xingchun was stunned. The flames which were just suppressed shot up all at once with a roar again.
"With Grandpa teaching you alchemy skills, you actually still acknowledged others as your master? Ignoring that you acknowledged a master, Ye Yuan is at the very most just a Quasi-Alchemy King too. What right does he have to be your master? Have you lost your mind?"
"Grandfather, I'm very clear about what I'm doing! Although Master he can only refine Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal pills, the profoundness of his Alchemy Path knowledge far exceeds yours! As the saying goes, those who reached first can teach! He can naturally be my master!" Ren Dong said.
Only now did Ren Xingchun recall Ye Yuan's performance at the Thousand Query Wall. Back then, he stopped Ye Yuan from continuing to challenge. If he really carried on, how many questions Ye Yuan could answer was really hard to say.
Looking from this, Ye Yuan's Alchemy Path standards actually far surpassed his present realm.
As long as his boundary reached, the standards of the medicinal pills refined would greatly surpass those of the same rank.
Like this, Ye Yuan being Ren Dong's master did not seem to be unjustifiable.
Ren Xingchun discovered that he could not do anything to this youth before his eyes at all.
He had a Boundless Realm fighter, and his own alchemy knowledge was also very heaven-defying.
Martial Path and Alchemy Path, he actually could not match up to a brat who was still wet behind the ears. This made the arrogance in heart and haughty in manner Ren Xingchun feel very aggrieved.
"Stinking brat! Quickly hand over Ye Hang and my daughter! This is my family matter! It isn't your turn to interfere!"
Ren Xingchun talking right now was not as confident as earlier. He did not even dare to say threatening words.
But Ye Yuan said coolly, "They are right inside this house behind me. If you have the capabilities, you go and bring them out yourself."
"You!"
Ren Xingchun took a look at the Yue Mengli behind Yue Mengli and nearly spewed out a mouthful of old blood.
If I could beat her, I would have long brought them out! Why would I waste my breath with you?
Ren Xingchun s.u.c.k.e.d in a deep breath and reined in his impatience as he asked Ye Yuan, "Fine. Then I ask you, what is your relationship with them? Why do you want to save them?!"
But Ye Yuan did not answer. He just looked at him with a smile that wasn't a smile.
When these words came out, Ren Xingchun himself was stunned for a bit too.
He was originally in the midst of anger and did not think deeply about this matter.
Now that he asked, he thought of a possibility.
Ye Yuan was surnamed Ye. Ye Hang was surnamed Ye too. Moreover, calculating according to the time, Ye Hang and Ren Hongling had also left the Northern Domain for 18 to 19 years already; just nice coinciding with Ye Yuan's age.
Shouldn't be . . .
Ren Xingchun seemed to have thought of something and abruptly turned his head to asked Ren Yujie, "You all knew long ago?"
Ren Yujie forced a smile and said, "I only knew today as well! It was Sister's one sentence which shocked me awake thoroughly. That's why I took the risk of Father laying down punishment to bring her to find Ye Yuan."
Ren Xingchun was stupefied and asked, "What did Hongling she say?"
"She said, if Brother-in-Law died, she absolutely wouldn't live on alone! And if Ye Yuan knew that they died in your hands, he'll surely come to find you to take revenge in the future! She didn't hope to see this kind of human relations tragedy to happen to our Ren Family! When I knew that Sister's son was Ye Yuan, I knew that he completely had this capability to come and find you to take revenge in the future!"
Hearing these words, Ren Xingchun was secretly alarmed.
Was there a need to wait for the future?
Ye Yuan had a seemingly Boundless Realm expert beside him right now. He wanting to kill him was simply something effortless!
Even if he did not rely on this Boundless Realm, with Ye Yuan's degree of monstrousness, maybe in less than five years, he would not be his match anymore!
He had such a heaven-defying maternal grandson, but he also almost killed his son-in-law. Why did this sort of thing seem so absurd?
Except that Ren Xingchun never would have dreamed that Ye Yuan this gradually rising genius martial artist was actually his own maternal grandson!
This grandson should originally have been the entire Wu Fang City's pride. But now . . .
This was the first time in his life that Ren Xingchun felt somewhat regretful.
For so many years, he stood by his words. He wanted the entire Wu Fang City to all listen to him.
His daughter fell for a bottom-level alchemist; he wanted to use forceful means to separate them.
Now, that alchemist brought sincerity and brought his wife to come and apologize to him; instead, he wanted to kill that alchemist.
"You're regretting!" Ye Yuan's voice suddenly rang out.
Ren Xingchun was startled. This boy actually saw through his thoughts?
"You're regretting that a junior which even Old Hai regards highly was actually your own grandson, but you didn't know!"
"You're regretting that this grandson can give your Wu Fang City, can give your Ren Family limitless reverence and benefits, but you wanted to kill his father!"
"You're regretting that such an outstanding grandson, but you offended him thoroughly!"
"But have you thought about that if I was just an ordinary person, would you still regret the things that you did last time?"
"If I were just an ordinary person, my corpse would probably be lying in this courtyard right now already, right?"
"Therefore . . . you're just an utter and complete self-centered person! In your eyes, only your paramount status is the most important!"
Chapter 531 - Hitting the Nail on the Head
Each sentence that Ye Yuan had uttered struck Ren Xingchun's heart like a heavy punch.
Such an outstanding junior was absolutely what every family clan were extremely eager for.
Even using one's heel to think about it, one would also know that Ye Yuan's future accomplishments would surely be extraordinary.
But now, Ren Xingchun had offended this descendant thoroughly.
Of course, offended means offended. If it were an ordinary person, Ren Xingchun could capture him back to discipline him strictly.
But the problem was that he could not do anything to Ye Yuan at all!
"Humph! What do you know at your young age? Everything that I do is for the sake of the Ren Family!
If there wasn't me, how could the Ren Family quash the Cao Family and firmly occupy this Wu Fang City's highest position?"
Ren Xingchun was very conceited. Even if he felt regret over Ye Yuan in his heart, it was also not possible to lower his head to Ye Yuan this junior.
Furthermore, he did not feel that what he did was in any way wrong.
This was the most crucial!
"Hahaha! You, this old man, are really amusing! Is this game of deceiving yourself and others very fun?" Hearing Ren Xingchun's words, Ye Yuan burst into laughter.
The mockery in the laugh was revealed completely.
Ren Xingchun said with a black face, "Deceiving myself and others? Wu Fang City is already managed by me tight like an iron bucket. Who dares to say a word of no to my orders?"
"Like an iron bucket is it? Maybe! It's just that, this is only temporary! If your words are really the law in this Wu Fang City, on that day when I challenged the Thousand Query Wall, you shouldn't have been standing on the Cao Family's side. You should have been kicking them while they are down to pull the Cao Family up by the roots! You didn't dare to do this because the Cao Family's bedrock is too deep. And this Wu Fang City's prestige still needs the Cao Family to maintain it, and not you, this City Lord!"
Ye Yuan continued with a cold smile and said, "The Cao Family is just on the decline temporarily. Their foundation is right there. Sooner or later, there will come a day when they will rise up once more. And you . . . are just an upstart. Without a bedrock, without any future! After you pass your peak period, Wu Fang City will change hands once more! Actually, you yourself realized this point too, right?"
"Humph! Dong-er talent greatly surpasses that Cao Fang. You saw it yourself too. As long as Dong-er m.a.t.u.r.es, the Cao Family still will be trampled underfoot by our Ren Family!" Ren Xingchun continued to be stubborn.
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "I don't deny this point. But do you really feel that Ren Dong can take on the heavy responsibility all by himself? What can you leave for him? A powerful family? Cao Family is indeed inferior to Ren Dong, but they are just Quasi-Alchemy Kings after all. At Alchemy King this level? Alchemy Sovereign this level? The Cao Family can invite so many Alchemy Sovereign experts every five years. Those people didn't come on account of your face. They came for the Cao Family! In terms of foundation, in terms of connections, in terms of talents, the Ren Family doesn't have a single one that can beat the Cao Family!"
