Yang Su confronts Su Chen, angered by Hu Zong's death and fearing her miss's reaction. Before Yang Su can act, a powerful group led by Yu Zhang of the Yu Family descends, having located the Imperial Family due to the Emperor's Heavenly Punishment. Yang Su distances herself from the conflict. Yu Zhang calls for the Imperial Family members to step forward, and Su Chen declares Di Deijin is his woman, vowing to kill anyone who touches her.
"Hehe..." Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Yang Su was the first to erupt in laughter, so hard it seemed uncontrollable, as if she were looking at an utter fool. Her gaze swept over Su Chen.She found it incomprehensible that stupidity seemed to have no bounds. This young man from the Minor Thousand Worlds truly knew nothing and had never experienced the wider world.If the members of the Yu Family hadn't arrived so suddenly, she would have already taken action to impart a crucial lesson to Su Chen, demonstrating what a truly powerful individual was. The Fourth Level of the Divine Lord Realm was leagues beyond the First or Second Level.Alas, the appearance of the Yu Family had thwarted her plans. This brat was fortunate, managing to escape with his life.Who could have possibly imagined...He didn't know when to treasure his good fortune!!!An absolute simpleton, clearly seeking his own demise.Yang Su was confident in her ability to easily overpower Su Chen, let alone this middle-aged man from the Yu Family? He was at the Fifth Level Peak Phase of the Divine Lord Realm!It wasn't just Yang Su; even the Iceflame Vermilion Bird felt a sense of unease. She wasn't optimistic about Su Chen's chances against this ancient powerhouse from the Yu Family. She considered warning him, but then realized it was likely too late. Su Chen had already spoken; could he possibly retract his words?"Hahahahaha..." In the following moment, peals of laughter erupted from the hundred-plus formidable martial cultivators of the Yu Family. Each one fixed their gaze upon Su Chen, their expressions filled with amusement.The Half-Step Divine Sovereign Realm daring to threaten the Fifth Level Peak Divine Lord Realm?!How fascinating, truly intriguing."Great Elder..." The young man beside Yu Zhang, exuding a cold and sinister aura and cultivating at the Third Level of the Divine Lord Realm, took half a step forward. He addressed Yu Zhang respectfully while glancing at Su Chen, seeking permission to deal with Su Chen first."There's no need. It's a good thing for young people to possess courage, isn't it?" Yu Zhang chuckled, declining the request. He didn't seem angered by Su Chen's audacity, instead, his eyes glinted mischievously as he regarded Su Chen with amusement. "This old man quite appreciates young individuals who are confident and even arrogant."Su Chen remained quiet, his eyes meeting Yu Zhang's. "So, will you permit my woman and me to depart?"If the opposing party truly made no move, he wouldn't interfere, as he harbored no animosity towards the Yu Family. As long as Fei Jin was saved, that was all that mattered.As for the Yu Family's intentions to eliminate other members of the Imperial Family, he saw no issue with that. Haha, he actually wished for every single one of them to perish without a proper burial. Naturally, he wouldn't concern himself with it.Honestly, had the Yu Family not appeared, he would have personally taken the initiative to annihilate the Imperial Family, without a doubt.The arrival of the Yu Family had indeed served as the executioners.Very well.Su Chen's demeanor remained incredibly overbearing. Deep down, his greatest desire was to crush members of the Imperial Family like Di Jie, to torment them until death. Others dealing with the Imperial Family members did not assuage his anger. It would be best if he handled it himself.But ultimately, Di Jie was Fei Jin's biological father.Su Chen understood that even if he killed Di Jie with his own hands, Fei Jin would likely not object, nor would she hold any resentment.Di Jie had brought it upon himself, had he not?But what if, as a consequence, a slight rift formed between him and Fei Jin? Even with ample justification, logically, Fei Jin might comprehend, yet familial bonds could potentially sow a small seed of resentment in her heart.This was simply human nature.Su Chen placed himself in her shoes. What if it were his own blood relative killed by Fei Jin? Even if that relative was in the wrong, deep down, there would still be a difficult hurdle to overcome, wouldn't there?Su Chen did not wish for the slightest trace of animosity to arise between him and Fei Jin.For this reason, he was willing to step back. Di Jie must naturally die; there was no room for negotiation on that point. However, he could refrain from personally taking action.This concession wasn't requested by Fei Jin; it was Su Chen's own voluntary decision.After all, Fei Jin occupied an extremely significant position in Su Chen's heart. He had no desire to create even a minor point of contention with her.Fei Jin was the woman chosen by his mother, a predestined daughter-in-law, possessing breathtaking beauty and unparalleled prodigy talent in martial cultivation. She was entirely devoted to him and had saved his life on multiple occasions when he faced mortal peril.In Su Chen's estimation, Fei Jin's standing in his heart was equivalent to that of Lin Lanxin, Wenren Nongyue, Xiao Yuan, and Yoo Junluo. She was among the most cherished among all the women he possessed.Of course, if Fei Jin had actively pleaded for Di Jie's life, Su Chen would have preferred to act himself, even if it meant Fei Jin's status in his heart would plummet from that day forward.Fortunately, Fei Jin did not intercede.At this precise moment.On one side, Di Jie lay collapsed on the ground, utterly defeated and filled with extreme tension.With the arrival of the Yu Family, he understood the Imperial Family's doom was sealed, their extinction inevitable. He was certainly going to die. Before his end, his sole desire was to witness Su Chen's demise!!! That's right! His animosity towards Su Chen was beyond description, far greater than imagination; this was his only wish left. Initially, when Su Chen stepped forward, recklessly trying to rescue his daughter Fei Jin, it was clearly a suicidal act, and Su Chen would most likely perish at the hands of the Yu Family. But who would have predicted that the Great Elder Yu Zhang would disregard the established rules? It appeared Yu Zhang held a certain regard for Su Chen! What should be done... Di Jie grew exceedingly anxious, his complexion turning ashen, trembling as he fixed his gaze on Yu Zhang, awaiting his verdict, each second stretching into an eternity. Moments later. Under the astonished eyes of everyone present, Yu Zhang actually nodded: "Very well, young man, I, this old one, appreciate your spirit. I shall spare this girl on your behalf, despite her being a direct descendant of the Imperial Family!!!" As soon as these words were uttered. Di Jie almost bit off his own tongue. He felt no joy, even though it seemed his daughter's life was spared. However, he would rather his daughter perish than Su Chen survive. As long as Su Chen meets his end, even if his daughter dies, it would be acceptable! His hatred for Su Chen had reached such a monstrous degree. Yet, unexpectedly, Yu Zhang... the resolute Yu Zhang, had a change of heart? Di Jie could not fathom this turn of events; it shouldn't be like this! Not only Di Jie, but Li Chui, Yang Su, and the other members of the Yu Family were equally dumbfounded, completely taken aback. Su Chen's brazenness, his sheer audacity? Yu Zhang actually... actually... intended to let Su Chen walk away? For this, he'd even permit the daughter of the Imperial Family's Patriarch to leave? Was he insane? Without hearing it firsthand, who would ever believe such a thing? "Yu Zhang, this girl is my own daughter!" At that precise moment, Di Jie suddenly bellowed, roaring: "Yu Zhang, do you truly dare to let my daughter go?! Are you not afraid that one day she will seek vengeance for the Imperial Family? Hahaha..." While Di Jie was speaking. Fei Jin's tears began to flow. Crystal-clear tears, streaming down her face. The final vestiges of their father-daughter bond were severed, completely obliterated. Hehe... Fei Jin understood perfectly why her father felt the need to emphasize her status as his daughter at this critical juncture? "Father, to you, your daughter truly holds no significance whatsoever." Fei Jin's heart felt profoundly empty. For the survival of the Imperial Family, her father could force her into marriage with Hu Zong, even tricking her into consuming the Soul-Locking Pill. To ensure Su Chen's demise, he was even willing to let her be buried alongside him. This was her father! Her own biological father!!! "Father, from this day forward, Fei Jin will bear no further connection to the Imperial Family." Fei Jin silently swore in her heart, the last thread of attachment to the Imperial Family, the final trace of father-daughter affection, was gone. "From this day forward, I, Fei Jin, shall live solely for my man, and solely for the pursuit of the higher path of martial arts.
