"H-How could it be possible?" Inside the Azure Palace, Weilan Wuhui, the eldest son of Weilan Tianjun and Weilan Xuan's older brother, turned ghastly pale after listening to the report. He couldn't believe that his unparallelled grandfather would lose to Yun Lintian and even get killed.
"It must be a lie!" On the side, Weilan Fan shouted angrily. He refused to believe that his grandfather and father were defeated by a hairy boy like Yun Lintian.
"All of you, get out and bring him back to me!" He roared at several elders in the hall.
The elders glanced at each other in dismay. Even the Dragon Guards couldn't even withstand Yun Lintian's attack. What were they?
"Shut up!" Weilan Wuhui glared at his younger brother. He turned to Weilan Xuan and asked. "What should we do, Supreme Elder?"
Weilan Xuan's eyes flickered slightly. She looked at everyone in the hall and said calmly. "Yun Lintian has become the world's undisputed number one powerhouse. Destroying this place is just a matter of flipping his hand… We only have two choices left. Fighting with him to death and submitting to him."
"What!? You want us to submit to a brat like him? Have you gone insane!?" Weilan Fan jumped to his feet and yelled at Weilan Xuan. There was no respect in his eyes anymore when he looked at her.
Weilan Xuan glanced at him, and her aura spread out, pressing Weilan Fan to the ground, and said sternly. "It seems you have never learned what I taught you."
"In front of absolute strength, everything is meaningless. In the past, our Azure Palace could dominate this world because we had enough strength to suppress everyone."
She swept her gaze over everyone and continued. "Open your foolish eyes and look around this place. Do you think we are still in the dominant position?"
Weilan Fan was so angry, but he couldn't get rid of Weilan Xuan's power. He glared around and saw all the elders lower their heads, losing their arrogance completely.
It was at this moment did he realize the Azure Palace was no longer what it used to be in the past.
He immediately went silent.
Meanwhile, Weilan Wuhui calmed down completely. Unlike his younger brother, he understood everything better. Although it was unacceptable, Weilan Xuan's words were true. The Azure Palace had become something in the past now.
He took a deep breath and asked. "How to do it, Supreme Elder? After all, we have a deep grudge against Yun Lintian. It's uncertain whether he would spare us."
Weilan Xuan said calmly. "Tian'er… We have to rely on Tian'er."
Weilan Wuhui was enlightened. He remembered that Weilan Tian had a good relationship with Yun Lintian. As long as Weilan Tian pleaded with him, Yun Lintian would definitely give him face and spare everyone.
"However, he must hate us deeply right now." Weilan Wuhui said worriedly. Weilan Tian being tortured by Weilan Jian wasn't a secret among everyone here. He didn't think Weilan Tian would help them easily.
"Let's try." Weilan Xuan said while closing her eyes tiredly.
The scene where she met Yun Lintian first time inside the Heavenly Sword Divine City appeared in her mind like it had happened yesterday. At that moment, she had a hunch that he would become the top figure among the top powerhouses in this world.
It was just that she didn't think his strength would progress this fast. In a span of one and a half years, Yun Lintian went from a small Saint to a Divine Foundation Realm expert who could kill even the peak expert with a wave of his hand. She had no words to describe it.
However, it couldn't be blamed on her. In fact, no one in this world would be able to see this coming. Even Weilan Jian and Xing Tengfei, who had been cautious their entire lives, couldn't predict it.
A moment later, Weilan Tian was brought into the hall. His clothes were still tattered and full of bloodstain. He was extremely skinny that everyone could see his bones.
Weilan Tian swept over everyone with his indifferent gaze and said. "Why did you bring me here?"
Before anyone could say, he said further. "Let me guess. Weilan Tianjun and Weilan Jian have already died in Brother Yun's hands, and now you want me to pacify him, right?"
Weilan Wuhui, who opened his mouth, was immediately rendered speechless.
This younger brother of his was smarter than his peers, and it was understandable why he could guess everything accurately.
Seeing everyone's downcast faces, Weilan Tian suddenly laughed out loud. "Hahaha! I knew it!… Hahaha! Good! Very good! They deserved to die!"
His laughter was like a sharp knife piercing everyone's heart. Yesterday, they were still in a high and mighty position, but now they were no different from desperate dogs seeking a way to survive.
Weilan Tian laughed for a good while and asked. "Do you think I will help all of you?"
Weilan Fan hurriedly said. "Third Brother, do you really want to see everyone die?"
Weilan Wuhui glared at him and turned to Weilan Tian. "I know you hate us deeply, but we are really helpless about what happened to you. You also know that we cannot go against our grandpa."
"He's not my grandfather." Weilan Tian said coldly. His eyes filled with boundless hatred as he spoke. "What a pity. I wish I could see him die with my own eyes."
"Well, it's not too late, Brother Tian."
All of a sudden, Yun Lintian's voice resounded from above, causing everyone's face to change drastically.
At this moment, Yun Lintian slowly descended and walked into the hall with Yun Qianxue, Shen Liqiu, Qing Xiaoting, and Tao Kang.
"Brother Yun." Weilan Tian was slightly surprised and quickly greeted Yun Lintian with a smile.
Yun Lintian walked over and patted Weilan Tian's shoulder while injecting the wood energy into his body. "I'm sorry. I should have come faster."
Weilan Tian could feel his body recover at a monstrous speed, but he wasn't surprised about it much.
He shook his head and said. "It's not your fault, Brother Yun. On the contrary, I should be the one who feels sorry for you. After all, Weilan Jian got the bloodline power from me."
Yun Lintian chuckled and said arrogantly. "It doesn't matter. He can't fight me anyway."
Weilan Tian looked at Yun Lintian and laughed.
Yun Lintian slowly turned his head to look at Weilan Xuan and said. "It's been a while, Elder Weilan."
