Chapter 267: Chapter 266: 【Breaking Through Boundaries is Important】Returning to his own bedroom, Ye Tianchen contentedly ate the fruit from the fruit plate. He had just fed a slice of watermelon to the miniature Bichon Frise his sister was raising and had watched for about half an hour. Finding nothing amiss, he assured himself that Qi Ruxue had not tampered with it by adding any drugs, and he began to eat heartily. After finishing the fruit in the plate, Ye Tianchen did not go to sleep immediately. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the bed. The moonlight outside the window was still very bright, illuminating the room through the window. Ye Tianchen slowly entered a state of meditation, feeling the peak power of his King-level Superpower Realm. He wanted to make a breakthrough, even though the natural laws of Earth had already changed. Whether it was for superpower users, Ancient Martial Sect experts, or Mutated Demon Beasts from the apocalypse star, all could be said to involve Cultivation. Since it was cultivation, it could not be separated from "Tao" — "Tao", at its smallest, refers to the natural laws of an entire planet, and at its largest, to the laws of the entire universe, the natural laws. This is the Tao. That night, Ye Tianchen had used the strength of the Peak of the King-level Superpower Realm twice, especially during the fight against the black-clothed assassin sent by the Xuanyuan family. Ye Tianchen demonstrated his most powerful strength. Otherwise, he would not have been able to eliminate such a top assassin in a brief period of time. The black-clothed assassin was very strong, already capable of unleashing powerful Inner Strength moves with a casual swing of his sword, and the material of his blade was particularly special, invincible. If it were not for Ye Tianchen unleashing the peak power of his King-level Superpower Realm, concentrating it all in the palm of his right hand, and shattering the blade into segments with one palm strike, he, Ye Tianchen, might have been cleaved in two himself. It was when Ye Tianchen leaped into the moonlight and shattered the giant blade shadow with one punch that he felt his entire body filled with the power of the King-level Superpower Realm. Every cell and every drop of blood seemed to be permeated by this power. Ye Tianchen, once a Divine-level superpower expert in the apocalypse star, knew what this meant. It meant he was about to break through to the Emperor-level Superpower Realm. But at that moment, he could not feel the natural energy of Earth, the so-called Tao, and thus could not make the breakthrough. Every breakthrough required a vast amount of natural energy. Relying solely on one’s own superpower was utterly insufficient to meet the energy needs of a breakthrough. Only when one’s current realm reached a peak could one absorb a large amount of natural energy, combine it with one’s own superpower, and burst through to a new Cultivation Realm, greatly increasing one’s strength and achieving a complete breakthrough. However, as Zhang Yide and Ye Tianchen both understood, Earth’s nature had been severely damaged, having undergone thousands of years of change. This had altered the natural laws, making it nearly impossible to draw energy from Earth’s nature to achieve a breakthrough and reach a higher peak of power. The energy on Earth had almost dissipated. Only a few hidden places untouched by humans still retained some energy reserves, but without reaching a certain realm, drawing this energy from Earth’s hidden places was extremely difficult. This was also why, as Earth developed into modern times, there were very few powerful experts left. More and more ordinary people were unable to engage in cultivation. The most important reason was that the destruction of Earth was too severe. The energy of the natural laws that could enlighten people had almost completely dissipated, and everyone was doomed to mediocrity for their entire lives. "No, I must find a way to break through to the Emperor-level Superpower Realm. Otherwise, relying on my current strength, even if I find the Transmission Array and go to Emperor Star or return to the apocalypse star, it would be like being slaughtered by others. How could I then seek the Longevity Skill or avenge my dead family and friends?" Ye Tianchen admonished himself in his heart. He must not be negligent in dealing with this matter, and he should find a way to break through his power since he still had more important tasks to accomplish. It was his mission. Gradually, as Ye Tianchen meditated, he repeatedly stimulated the peak power of the King-level Superpower Realm, tempering every inch of flesh and bone in his body. Even if he could not break through the realm now, he was preparing for a breakthrough. If he truly went to Emperor Star or returned to the apocalypse star, where strength reigned supreme in a world where people preyed on each other, being not strong enough meant being slaughtered by others. At that time, in a place in Capital City that very few people knew about, on the rooftop of a towering forty-eight-story building, a man around thirty years old, dressed in a casual white shirt, lay on a sun lounger. Enjoying the high wind and sipping a glass of red wine, behind him stood two tall, stunning women dressed in tight clothes. If anyone dared to flirt with them without permission, they would surely lose their lives, for those two beauties were powerful assassins. Even a hundred men were no match for them. The man in his thirties sipped his red wine, observing the night view of the entire Capital City, a smile forming on his lips. Over the years, he had reached a height where he has many significant identities, yet no one knew who he was or what background he had. He enjoyed directing affairs from the shadows. He thought he had become bored with his expertise and had nothing exciting left to play, but Ye Tianchen’s emergence rekindled his interest. This man, who had once been trampled under his feet and could have been casually exploited, now had undergone a change that warranted his renewed attention, amping up his playful interest significantly. "Young Master, I just received news that Ye Tianchen went to Heaven and Earth and taught the Young Master Party a lesson!" a beautiful assassin stepped forward and reported respectfully. "Oh? It seems he has already started investigating that matter of the past. Well, let him investigate. I’ll play along with him and hope he doesn’t disappoint me," the man in the white shirt commented after a brief pause.

Ye Tianchen did not kill him; perhaps he has already betrayed us!" the beautiful assassin asked for instructions. "Bai Wu has never seen me; he is merely a tool I used to manage the Young Master Party. When I first started out, the first thing I did was to use that fool Ye Tianchen to peek at Liu Rumei bathing. It caused a great sensation in Capital City, just a casual amusement for me. Unexpectedly, Ye Tianchen did not die, and the Liu family really can endure. Since Ye Tianchen now wants to find me, I will play along and see how impressive his transformation really is!" "So, should we kill him or not?" "Kill him. Keeping him is of no use anymore. Also, send someone to kill Ouyang Feiyun; let’s see if Ye Tianchen can withstand an attack from both the Xuanyuan family and the Ouyang family, these two great Hidden Families." The man in the white shirt, always with his back to the two beautiful assassins, spoke in a calm tone, yet with a hint of playfulness. "Yes!" the beautiful assassin nodded and said. According to the information they had received, the Xuanyuan family had already taken action to kill Ye Tianchen, even attempting to exterminate the Ye family. The Xuanyuan family was a major family located in Sichuan Province. They hadn’t attacked rashly because they were not in Capital City, and many things still needed planning. But everyone knew that the Xuanyuan family, hidden and powerful, would unleash attacks as fierce as a storm once they moved. As for the Ye family, they were definitely unable to withstand it. Ye Tianchen also knew the Xuanyuan family was very domineering and powerful. Sending a letter was enough to flatten an entire villa area; sending one black-clad assassin was to demonstrate their exceptional prowess. And these were just minor tests by the Xuanyuan family. According to the fallen black-clad assassin, within the Xuanyuan family was an extremely powerful individual. This colossal power was condensed into a single envelope by him, making him very likely to become Ye Tianchen’s greatest obstacle and opponent in eradicating the Xuanyuan family. "This is really fun, Ye Tianchen, I am still very thankful to have an opponent like you. Don’t disappoint me. If you can’t even handle the Xuanyuan and Ouyang families, how will you deal with me?" The man in the white shirt, quite confident, mused aloud. Early the next morning, Ye Tianchen was awakened by a roaring sound, louder than the roar of a lion. Immediately after, he heard his own room door about to be knocked down as his younger sister, Ye Qianwen, loudly yelled outside, "Brother, come out! Did you feed watermelon to my Bichon Frise?" Ye Tianchen yawned, slightly startled by his sister’s words, then smirked mischievously. He covered his head with a blanket and pillow and continued to snooze heavily, ignoring how Ye Qianwen knocked and shouted outside. He decidedly did not open the door. Clearly, it was he who had fed a frozen piece of watermelon to the Bichon Frise last night to prevent Qi Ruxue from pranking him, and now that the Bichon Frise had a problem, his sister Ye Qianwen guessed it was his doing, hence her furious visit. Now, to open the door would be to invite a fierce scolding from the temperamental sister, not to mention the joint criticism from their mother Luo Yan and Qi Ruxue. Why bother? Pretending to know nothing was better. Ye Qianwen knocked on the door of Ye Tianchen’s bedroom for at least half an hour, furiously kicking the door without getting her brother out. She was so angry that her little face turned red, and after kicking the door violently once more, she said to their mother Luo Yan downstairs, "Mom, brother is really too much, he must have tampered with the Bichon Frise and now he’s too guilty to come out, huh!" "Come down and eat, leave your brother alone!" Luo Yan said with a laugh, shaking her head. "Little sister, it must be this big bad guy. If the fruit plate I stored in the fridge wasn’t eaten by him, then who else could it be?" Qi Ruxue also said frustratedly, looking upstairs.(To be continued.
