Chapter 151 - 150: Child of Destiny?

Chapter 151: Chapter 150: Child of Destiny?"What happened? Wasn’t Zhou Youwei holding the upper hand, why did she suddenly surrender?!" Seeing Zhou Youwei suddenly speak up and surrender, choosing to walk down the Daoist Platform, everyone was stunned. Not only was Lie Tian Academy’s side shocked, but so were the people from Emperor Immortal Sect. "This?" seaʀᴄh thё NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The disciples of Emperor Immortal Sect all felt puzzled. But soon, someone said, "The Holy Daughter clearly had the strength to defeat Lin Feiyan yet chose not to finish him, opting to surrender instead. Is she paving the way for the senior brother?" "That’s very likely, the senior brother has already stood up!" Everyone looked toward Ye Xuan, who had risen to his feet, their faces filled with anticipation. Yet, there were disciples who expressed concerns, saying, "Although the senior brother can defeat top-tier Sealing Kings, Lin Feiyan’s strength is clearly beyond just a Sealing King, but rather at a Sealing King Level. Can the senior brother really win against him?" "Since His Holiness the Holy Daughter has surrendered, clearly choosing to trust the senior brother, we should trust him as well!" Amid a burst of discussion, Zhou Youwei walked back to Ye Xuan’s side and whispered softly, "Be careful." Ye Xuan nodded slightly, his gaze cold, and he spoke quietly, "Just for what he said earlier, I can’t forgive him." This Lin Feiyan, knowing he was sitting here, still said those words to Zhou Youwei. It was practically an outright provocation and contempt. Ye Xuan had lived through countless ages and had seen countless bold individuals. If it were just some ordinary jester, Ye Xuan would not care. But if anyone dared to touch his bottom line, then they should be ready to take a beating. If there were ancient emperors from past millennia resurrected to see Ye Xuan’s expression at that moment, they would likely be so terrified that their courage would break apart. The Undying Night Emperor, who had reigned for countless eons... Was angry. "Do you need a sword?" Zhou Youwei took the initiative to offer her Divine Sword. Ye Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "To deal with someone like him, I don’t need a sword; it would just dirty yours." As he spoke, Ye Xuan stepped toward the arena. It was only then that the students from Lie Tian Academy came to their senses, and seeing Ye Xuan voluntarily moving toward the arena, they started laughing, "Has Emperor Immortal Sect gone mad? Zhou Youwei was in a favorable position yet chose to surrender, and let Ye Xuan take over?!" "It seems, Lin Feiyan alone can settle the fights of Emperor Immortal Sect’s Prince Level on his own, even without the need for our senior brother Zhang Yanliang to make a move." The many students of Lie Tian Academy laughed. This really caught them off guard. Originally, they all thought that Zhou Youwei would defeat Lin Feiyan, yet Zhou Youwei, who held a significant advantage, suddenly surrendered and directly walked off the stage, quite amusing indeed. "Emperor Immortal Sect, what exactly are you up to?" Zhang Yanliang frowned deeply, feeling utterly perplexed. Just moments before, everyone was convinced that Lin Feiyan was going to win, yet Zhou Youwei suddenly declared her surrender, which was completely unexpected. Even Zhang Yanliang couldn’t understand the shift in the situation. Not to mention Zhang Yanliang. Even Zhou Zihuang, perched on the high platform of the arena, slightly furrowed his brows. Zhou Youwei’s surrender was something he indeed had not anticipated. He had thought that Zhou Youwei would win this battle and then continue to challenge Zhang Yanliang. But Zhou Youwei suddenly surrendered. "Sect Master Zhou, what kind of strategy is this?" Hong Yunlie couldn’t help but laugh wryly. Hong Yunlie saw the slight change in Zhou Zihuang’s expression and felt that the situation was starting to get interesting. Zhou Zihuang remained silent, instead looking toward Ye Xuan. He was very aware that this was definitely Ye Xuan’s plan. ’Ye Xuan, you better not disappoint me...’ Zhou Zihuang sighed inwardly. Because if Ye Xuan lost this match, then Lin Feiyan would have single-handedly toppled the five Prince Level combatants of Emperor Immortal Sect. The exchange conference would then conclude with Lie Tian Academy being declared the victor. This was not the outcome that Zhou Zihuang wanted to see. If they were defeated, Emperor Immortal Sect would have to hand over their qualifications to travel to the Southern Ghost Tomb, and those sects and sacred lands secretly coveting Emperor Immortal Sect might also take action at the first opportunity. Then, Emperor Immortal Sect would be plunged into another round of calamity. A single move could set off a chain reaction. Everything now depended on whether Ye Xuan could win this battle. At this moment, above the Daoist Platform. Lin Feiyan, watching as the Sword Qi Storm dissipated, let out a small sigh of relief and smiled. Thankfully, with the help of his mentor, otherwise it would have been disastrous just now. "Thank you for your help, Master," Lin Feiyan said in his heart. But the ancient voice did not respond immediately, and after a while it said, "Something’s strange. That little girl seems to possess some kind of secret treasure that blocked this seat’s attack." "What?!" Lin Feiyan was suddenly taken aback. "She could actually block Master’s attack?" "What level of secret treasure is this?" Lin Feiyan was very aware that his master, despite being a mere remnant soul, wielded terrifying power. At Prince Level, he was like an ant in his master’s eyes. And Youwei had a secret treasure that could withstand an attack from his master! "Emperor Immortal Sect, truly fitting for a Great Emperor Immortal Sect, although it has declined, it still harbors powerful secret treasures..." the ancient voice echoed in Lin Feiyan’s mind. "If there is a chance, you must visit the Emperor Immortal Sect, do you understand?" "Yes, Master," Lin Feiyan replied with great respect. Lin Feiyan looked at Ye Xuan, who was stepping onto the Daoist Platform, and couldn’t help but smile slightly, calmly asking, "Do you wish to challenge me?" Ye Xuan stood still, with his hands in his pockets, and indifferently looked at Lin Feiyan before saying slowly, "Challenge is just a way of putting it." "Frankly, I am going to beat you so hard today that you’ll regret ever coming to this world." As soon as these words were spoken, the disciples of Lie Tian Academy burst into laughter. "Oh my, isn’t this Ye Xuan too arrogant? Just him? He wants to beat Brother Lin Feiyan?" The six newly risen Sealing Kings shook their heads and chuckled, "Does this guy really think he’s invincible because he defeated Li Xue?" No one in Lie Tian Academy thought that Ye Xuan could defeat Lin Feiyan. No matter how they looked at it, the two were not at the same level; there was no chance of turning the tables. Even Zhang Yanliang, although quite displeased with Lin Feiyan, also thought Ye Xuan was too arrogant. Lin Feiyan was at the peak of Earth Element, a top-tier Sealing King, but his real combat power was even less than that of an ordinary Sealing King Level. What was Ye Xuan in comparison? In truth, the moment Youwei conceded, Zhang Yanliang already had a sense of it. Today, it probably wouldn’t even require his involvement for Lie Tian Academy to claim victory. "Indeed, without Leng Yifan, Emperor Immortal Sect is just that..." Zhang Yanliang began to miss his days as Leng Yifan’s opponent. The Emperor Immortal Sect’s group was solemn at the moment, all eyes fixed on Ye Xuan, not rebutting the people from Lie Tian Academy but silently anticipating. Anticipating Ye Xuan to vent their pent-up resentment. "Are you upset about what I just said to Miss Zhou?" Lin Feiyan asked somewhat amused, looking at Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan’s expression was indifferent and he slowly replied, "Does it matter if I am or if I’m not?" Lin Feiyan grinned, his eyes fierce as he said, "Although I don’t know why you’re different from the idiot son-in-law in the rumors, I also rose from humble beginnings. No matter what tricks you have, today I will crush you to show you what it means to be a Child of Destiny." "Child of Destiny?" Ye Xuan suddenly laughed. It was obvious, this idea was surely instilled in Lin Feiyan by that remnant soul in the prayer beads. What is a Child of Destiny? No one knew better than Ye Xuan. It was someone who could wield the destiny of an era, overpowering All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, a generation’s Emperor. Like the founder of the Emperor Immortal Sect, the Lie Tian Great Emperor. That was a Child of Destiny. Such beings, Ye Xuan had nurtured countless ones throughout the endless ages. What was Lin Feiyan prattling on about being a Child of Destiny? There was a saying about teaching one’s grandmother to suck eggs; this was probably what it meant. "If you willingly let Miss Zhou go and let her marry me, I might consider sparing you," Lin Feiyan whispered this to Ye Xuan alone. As he spoke, Lin Feiyan intently stared at Ye Xuan, waiting for his response. Ye Xuan’s eyes remained calm, and the hands that had been in his pockets were now hanging by his sides. "I never show mercy to someone manipulated by Zhao Yulong." "Zhao Yulong manipulation?" Like Yang Jinchun and Huang Nian, when Lin Feiyan heard this term, he didn’t quite catch on.
