Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi
Chapter 901 - 899: The Supreme Venerable Submits [Fifth Update]

A double kill with a single sword!

Nantian Yu and his son knelt face to face on the ground, as their bodies were pierced through by countless sword lights.

Even the Primordial Spirit of Nantian Hou did not escape this fate.

Under the assault of Sword Twenty-Three, his Primordial Spirit was shredded, leading to death and the obliteration of his path.

Nantian Hou, a formidable Fourth Order Heavenly Venerable Realm practitioner, faced Xiao Yi's most powerful strike without any power to resist.

Gulp!

Nantian Wen swallowed hard.

Even though he had long known of Xiao Yi's strength, and was aware that he had slain Master Tianyun, a Fifth Layer Heaven Honor Realm practitioner, witnessing Xiao Yi killing Nantian Hou and his son with a single sword still left him utterly shocked. After all, he knew that even someone as talented as himself could not accomplish this feat at the same realm as Xiao Yi.

"Dead?"

Nantian Yan's face turned extremely grim.

He had never imagined that Nantian Hou and his son would die at Xiao Yi's hand, let alone that someone would dare to assassinate the royal lineage right in front of him, the Supreme Venerable ancestor of the Nantian Dynasty!

"Kid, you've gone too far!" An icy voice squeezed through Nantian Yan's clenched teeth.

Xiao Yi looked up at him.

This was his first time directly facing a Supreme Venerable level powerhouse!

But at this point...

There was no fear in Xiao Yi, he replied with neither servility nor insolence, "Too far? I do not know where I have exceeded bounds?"

"Daring to kill the legitimate bloodline of my imperial family right in front of me, is that not going too far?" Nantian Yan said.

Xiao Yi sneered, "I had a life-and-death contract with Nantian Yu. Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are in the hands of heaven, where is the wrong in that?"

"Hmph!"

Nantian Yan couldn't refute and could only say coldly, "If Xiaoyu had a life-and-death contract with you and he died, only his lack of skill is to blame. But you should never have killed Nantian Hou as well..."

"The terms of the contract clearly state no one shall interfere. Nantian Hou, however, disregarded the agreement and attempted to intervene in our conflict. Was I wrong to slay him?"

Xiao Yi stood his ground confrontationally, stepping forward aggressively, "Should I simply stretch out my neck and wait for him to kill me without the right to retaliate? What kind of logic is that? Could it be that the third ancestor of the grand Nantian Dynasty is going to bully the weak, use his power to oppress, and seek revenge for the two of them?"

"You, you..."

Nantian Yan's complexion alternated between shades of green and white, and even with his temperament, he was provoked by Xiao Yi to the point of speechlessness.

Bullying the weak, using power to oppress.

If he truly made a move with his Supreme Cultivation to suppress Xiao Yi, the fallout would ruin his reputation once the news spread. After all, the six great holy lands had an agreement that those above the Supreme rank should not interfere at will, let alone take action against Xiao Yi after a lost wager.

Nantian Wen took a deep breath, compelled to defuse the tension, "Ancestor, Xiao Yi, both of you please calm down!"

He never got along well with Nantian Hou.

Nantian Hou's death was virtually a great fortune for Nantian Wen.

However...

Before Nantian Yan, he could not show even a trace of pleasure, and said in a heavy tone, "Arguing now is futile... Since Nantian Yu is dead, Xiao Yi is the victor of the wager. Our Nantian Dynasty has always honored our words, so naturally, we will not pursue this matter further. What do you say, ancestor?"

With a cold snort, Nantian Yan was silent for a moment, and then nodded, "You're right, the royal house of Nantian can afford to lose!"

Only after hearing these words did Xiao Yi silently breathe a sigh of relief.

His tense nerves also relaxed.

If Nantian Yan really intended to kill him, he had no confidence in escaping alive from a Supreme Venerable powerhouse's hands!

Nantian Wen felt a sense of relief as well and said, "Since that's the case, let's fulfill the terms of the wager and send Xiao Yi to the Reincarnation Realm for training!"

"Bring the source stones!" Nantian Yan said with a dark face.

He would have loved nothing more than to slap Xiao Yi to death, but firstly, it was indeed Nantian Hou who had broken the contract, and secondly, Nantian Wen was supporting Xiao Yi. After all, he was the emperor of the Nantian Dynasty, and even Nantian Yan had to show him some respect.

Nantian Wen handed over a hundred source stones to Nantian Yan.

Looking at the hundred source stones in hand, a glint of greed flickered in Nantian Yan's eyes, but he quickly suppressed this covetous thought.

Nantian Yan waved his hand, collecting the bodies of Nantian Hou and his son, then glanced coldly at Xiao Yi and said indifferently, "Follow me!"

Nantian Wen gestured to follow.

Xiao Yi and Little Lin trailed closely behind...

A short while later.

They arrived at the Reincarnation Hall in the Reincarnation Realm, where the hall, shaped like an octagon, subtly conformed to the positions of the Bagua in Qimen Dunjia.

In the center of the grand hall.

Atop a stone platform, an ancient-looking bronze mirror was placed.

This is the Reincarnation Realm.

Also known as the Reincarnation Mirror!

Nantian Wen pointed to the bronze mirror on the stone platform and said in a deep voice, "Just place the origin stone within, and you can activate the passage to the Reincarnation Realm, allowing your consciousness to enter the Reincarnation Realm and acquire a random life."

Nantian Yan still had a grim expression.

After placing the origin stone on the stone platform, he formed several mysterious hand signs.

Crack crack crack!

The stone platform shook violently.

The hundred origin stones quietly melted at a visible speed, turning into pure and refined energy, which was then completely absorbed by the Reincarnation Mirror. After absorbing the energy of the origin stones, the Reincarnation Mirror emitted a bronze glow that seemed to fleetingly reveal a myriad of worlds within the mirror.

"Go then!" Nantian Yan said expressionlessly.

Nantian Wen whispered, "Go ahead, I will protect you!"

He was telling Xiao Yi that no one would be allowed to harm his body.

Xiao Yi hummed in acknowledgment, took a few steps forward, paused with his foot planted, and turned back to look at Nantian Yan, "Great Protector, using the Reincarnation Realm this time has been troublesome for you. This junior here has a modest gift to show my appreciation!"

Nantian Yan refused coldly, "No need, there isn't much in this world that catches the eye of this old man, keep your trash for yourself!"

"Uh..."

Xiao Yi confirmed with an odd expression, "Senior is certain you don't want it?"

"No need!"

Nantian Yan said coldly.

Xiao Yi said alright then, and immediately tossed a palm-sized green bag to Nantian Wen, smiling, "Brother Nantian, since the Great Protector has no regard for my gift, I'll give it to you!"

Before he had finished speaking,

Xiao Yi was already enveloped in the bronze light.

His body unconsciously settled in a seated position before the stone platform, his eyes closed, yet his consciousness had already entered the Reincarnation Realm.

At the same time...

Nantian Wen opened the bag out of curiosity, his face stiffened as he muttered, "Damn, this kid is way too generous, isn't he?"

Nantian Yan looked at Nantian Wen with annoyance, scolding, "As the Nantian Dynasty's emperor, how can you be so uncomposed?"

"..."

Nantian Wen wore a peculiar smile, opened the bag, and pushed it towards Nantian Yan, saying, "Ancestor, take a look..."

"Hmph, what good things could that kid possibly give..."

Nantian Yan scoffed, but his gaze inadvertently swept over the contents, and he could not move his eyes away.

Inside the bag was, incredibly, a hundred origin stones!

Hiss!

Even with Nantian Yan's disposition, he couldn't help but gasp in shock, his face showing a mixture of laughter and tears as he looked at Xiao Yi's back, expressing a look of amusement and frustration, "If I had known this youngster was so generous, why would I have bothered scheming so? Nantian Hou, oh Nantian Hou, if you had known this earlier, would you have given up your life for nothing?"

At that moment...

Both Nantian Wen and Nantian Yan couldn't help but feel sympathy for Nantian Hou and his son.

If only they had sought kindly counsel earlier.

Would it have come to such an outcome?

Now, they had lost their lives for nothing...

"Ancestor, about this..." Nantian Wen pointed at the bag, probing.

Nantian Yan glanced at him, sighed softly, "Since it's given to you, keep it." He paused, his gaze growing complex as he looked at Xiao Yi, and said seriously, "You were right; this young fellow is indeed worth winning over. Once he returns from the Reincarnation Realm, you may reveal some information about that plan to him..."

"That's exactly what I'm planning!" Nantian Wen said.

Nantian Yan hummed in affirmation, squinting his eyes, and muttered to himself, "The new waves of the Tianhe river push forward the old... Now, it really is the younger generation's era..."

Xiao Yi, having already entered the Reincarnation Realm, was unaware.

A Supreme Venerable...

Had been persuaded by him!

At this moment...

He was already in the Reincarnation Realm, embarking on a brand new, completely different life…
