The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 113 - 112 Yang Jinchun’s Threat

Chapter 113: Chapter 112 Yang Jinchun’s Threat

"Perfect completion," Ye Xuan said with a faint smile.

"Big brother, I’m starting to understand why you could take the position of Chief Disciple," Zhang Dahai looked at Ye Xuan, with arms crossed and a smile on his face, "I find that your skin is really thick, able to still smile after six defeats—looks like you really do want to give up the position of Chief Disciple."

"Big brother, please accept your junior brother’s bow!"

Zhang Dahai gave Ye Xuan a formal bow.

"Let’s go, you bowing for what, maybe I will be the big brother in the future," Xu Meng patted Zhang Dahai on the back, saying irritably.

"Alright then," Zhang Dahai wasn’t offended and followed Xu Meng and Liu Tianhao with a chuckle, being the first to leave the Lie Tian Martial Arena.

Huang Nian slowly stood up, stretching lazily, glanced at Ye Xuan with a sneer and said, "Big brother, your junior is taking leave first."

"Big brother, Yang brother, junior is taking leave," Wen Lin said with a slight bow, leaving with Huang Nian.

Soon, only Ye Xuan and Yang Jinchun’s teams were left in the Lie Tian Martial Arena.

Yang Jinchun had not spoken a single word to Ye Xuan from beginning to end.

Once everyone else left, Yang Jinchun finally looked at Ye Xuan slowly and, after glancing at the ten dispirited people behind Ye Xuan, he said calmly, "To be honest, according to that speech of yours at the Emperor Great Hall, there’s no way you would have chosen someone from the Xuanyuan Peak lineage, yet you did."

"What, do you have an opinion?" Ye Xuan said casually as he stood up.

Yang Jinchun shook his head gently, saying, "Just a bit curious."

"I’ve checked your background; you come from the Ye Family, but not that powerful branch of the Ye Family. You’re from a supporting branch that is remote and isolated, became an idiot at the age of eleven, and last year at fifteen, you married the Holy Daughter Zhou Youwei."

"Your marriage seems to be solely due to a marital arrangement, and Zhou Youwei’s wish to use you to avoid marriage with someone from the Luotian Sacred Land."

Yang Jinchun paused slightly, a faint smile emerging at the corner of his mouth. He continued looking at Ye Xuan calmly and continued,

"I don’t know how you regained your senses, but your marriage to Zhou Youwei is definitely not a good thing."

"Zhou Youwei, after all, is a Phoenix that soars through the Nine Heavens, while you, are nothing more than a weak ant."

"In the future, only someone like me, a True Dragon Emperor, is worthy of Zhou Youwei."

Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he did not speak.

True Dragon Emperor?

Even if he were a real True Dragon, Ye Xuan had slew those before, what significance did Yang Jinchun have?

Additionally, this Yang Jinchun actually investigated the Ye Family...

Seeing that Ye Xuan didn’t respond, Yang Jinchun continued, "After twenty-four days, when you give up the position of Chief Disciple, it will be a beginning."

"Moreover, I give you a warning, once I take the position of Chief Disciple, keep your distance from Zhou Youwei. Although I can’t harm you, I can still harm the people of the Ye Family’s branch."

"You..."

"Understand?"

Yang Jinchun said calmly, his words heavy with threat.

After listening to Yang Jinchun’s words, Ye Xuan’s expression remained calm. He looked at Yang Jinchun and said slowly, "Are you threatening me?"

"It’s just a necessary measure," Yang Jinchun said calmly.

Ye Xuan laughed, a somewhat cold laugh. He looked at Yang Jinchun indifferently and said, "Not to mention whether that day will come, even if it does, I will slaughter you before you make a move, along with your master Wei Yungang."

Yang Jinchun’s eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of murderous intent emerging in his gaze as he said in a deep voice, "We shall see."

With that, Yang Jinchun stood up and left the Lie Tian Martial Arena with everyone behind him.

The recent conversation was heard only by Yang Jinchun and Ye Xuan.

The others didn’t hear it.

Ye Xuan looked in the direction where Yang Jinchun had left, murmuring to himself, "Quite audacious, to actually threaten me..."

If someone familiar with Ye Xuan were here, they would know that Ye Xuan now harbored the intent to kill.

This Yang Jinchun actually dared to investigate the Ye Family...

Ye Xuan didn’t want to, but he was going to have to kill him.

In the Ye Family, there were Ye Xuan’s family members.

After soul-transcending through the ages, day and night he yearned for his homeland, hoping to one day see his family again. It was that belief that kept him going, until he freed himself from the control of the Burial Emperor and laid out plans throughout the ages.

Now back on this land, although he hadn’t yet seen his family, their faces were etched firmly in his heart.

Yang Jinchun dared to use the Ye Family to threaten Ye Xuan, and this was absolutely touching Ye Xuan’s reverse scale!

"Let him jump around for a few more days."

Ye Xuan calmed his mind and turned to look at Tan Qingshan and the others.

At that moment, Tan Qingshan and the others were showing bruises and swelling, having been beaten quite badly.

Fortunately, they were all superficial injuries.

Every time Ye Xuan conceded a point, it was pinpointed so none of them received fatal injuries.

Because of this, Yang Jinchun, Huang Nian and their six people had instructed their subordinates not to go all out. They were very clear that if they did, causing Tan Qingshan and the others to be injured, Ye Xuan would then have an excuse to replace his disciples.

They naturally did not wish to witness this scene.

So, even though Tan Qingshan and the others had lost six matches in a row, they didn’t sustain serious injuries.

However, the mental state of Tan Qingshan and the others was indeed terribly poor.

When everyone else had left, they still sat there, heads sunk in dejection.

"Not planning to leave?" Ye Xuan teased.

The crowd remained silent.

"Earlier you said you wanted to lose," Ye Xuan said with an indifferent smile.

"Though that may be true, we still hoped to win at least once..." Tan Qingshan said bitterly.

"This defeat will make the reputation of Xuanyuan Peak even worse," Zhu Xiaofei also sighed.

"I thought you didn’t care?" Ye Xuan asked again.

"Who said that?" Zhu Xiaofei glared.

"Then get up," Ye Xuan’s expression chilled.

"Everyone follow me back to Xuanyuan Peak. In these twenty-four days, do not leave my sight," Ye Xuan said coldly. "If you can’t do it, you’ll be directly kicked out of the Sect."

Hearing this, everyone reluctantly got up and began to descend the mountain.

Ye Xuan followed behind the crowd, heading towards Xuanyuan Peak.

After returning to Xuanyuan Peak.

Many Xuanyuan Peak disciples were present, especially the Divine Gate Realm disciples who had gathered the day before.

Qi Yunpei, however, did not come, probably in closed-door cultivation.

After all, he had received great insights the previous day.

This time, it was another Hall Master surnamed Sun who received Ye Xuan.

"Son-in-law," Hall Master Sun greeted Ye Xuan as he saw him return with Tan Qingshan and the others, bowing slightly.

Ye Xuan nodded in acknowledgment and spoke slowly, "For these twenty-four days, I will be training these ten people. I just wanted to give you a heads up."

"Alright," Hall Master Sun did not refuse.

"Son-in-law, may I ask how the warm-up battle went?" Hall Master Sun quietly asked.

Ye Xuan glanced askance at Hall Master Sun and replied with a faint smile, "Not too bad, lost all six battles."

"..." Hall Master Sun’s mouth twitched.

Lost all six battles, and that’s not too bad?

The other disciples were also at a loss for words.

However, they were not overly surprised by the result.

After all, everyone knew that the ten people selected by Ye Xuan were significantly inferior in both individual and collective strength to the other teams.

A complete defeat was expected; it would have been strange if they had actually won.

"I have borrowed the Qi Bamboo Forest behind Xuanyuan Peak," Ye Xuan said to Hall Master Sun, paying no mind to the rest.

"Son-in-law, please feel free to use it. No one goes there to cultivate anymore," Hall Master Sun bowed and said.

Without any further ado, Ye Xuan led Tan Qingshan, Zhu Xiaofei, and the others towards the Qi Bamboo Forest behind Xuanyuan Peak.

"Sigh, six defeats in a row, as expected..."

Once Ye Xuan and the others had left, the disciples of Xuanyuan Peak couldn’t help but sigh.

Although they had agreed yesterday to make Ye Xuan lose face,

knowing about the six defeats, they were completely unable to rejoice.

Yes, Ye Xuan was ridiculed,

but at the same time, Xuanyuan Peak was also laughed at.

Unwittingly, they shared in both honor and disgrace.

This left them with particularly complex emotions.

"What should we do in the official battle twenty-four days from now?" A disciple even harbored such worries.

"Instead of pondering this question in your spare time, you’d better focus on your cultivation and strive to bring honor to Xuanyuan Peak," Hall Master Sun humphed.

The disciples scattered like birds and beasts.

Ye Xuan brought Tan Qingshan, Zhu Xiaofei, and the others to the Qi Bamboo Forest.

Ye Xuan had his own plans. This warm-up battle was meant to evaluate the fighting styles of those six teams.

Winning or losing, for now, was unimportant.

The Qi Bamboo Forest was a very crucial element.
