Chapter 336: "Father, I Have Achieved True Enlightenment.
However, just as the Wei Family Patriarch sighed and nodded, preparing to let his son and the second miss of the Ji Family have another meal together to soothe his son's emotions, the brawny man who had been sitting by the pond suddenly stood up and spoke in a rumbling voice.
"Father, I am ready to go to the Tidal Immortal Realm to defeat that Chen Qiu."
"You..."
Upon hearing this, the Wei Family Patriarch almost lost his breath in sudden anger; damn it, do you really enjoy being used as a pawn so much? But after taking a deep breath, he hoarsely said, "Since you want to go, then go ahead."
"And bring back the second miss of the Ji Family."
Forget it.
Let it be as his son wishes.
He had never heard of Chen Qiu, but considering it's just someone from a fifth-grade Immortal Realm, he didn't care. No matter how big the trouble, their "Wei Family" could handle it.
However, to be cautious.
He still gave his trusted aide a look to investigate this Chen Qiu's information.
And so it was.
After his son left, he was unwilling to stay any longer, and with a grim face, he immediately left the "Ji Family."
An hour later.
He had already returned to the "Wei Family," sitting in the Family Head's chair, listening to the reports brought by his confidant.
"Chen Qiu, Sect Master of the Chao Tian Sect, has recently risen to fame in the Tidal Immortal Realm, reportedly having climbed up from the First Grade Continent."
"He crossed the second-grade Heavenly Tribulation with a seventh-level Peak Tribulation Crossing Cultivation, and crossed the third-grade Heavenly Tribulation with Peak Tribulation Crossing Cultivation."
"He formally gained fame on the Heavenly Dao Decree of the First Grade Continent, at that time with Golden Core Peak Cultivation, and now with an eighth-level Earth Immortal Cultivation. He built everything from scratch with no family background, and all this happened in just over a decade."
"Currently, the Heaven and Earth Power in the Tidal Immortal Realm has been entirely exhausted, even preventing Ba Dan from passing the True Immortal Tribulation."
"Ascension Conference..."
One cannot deny.
The Wei Family is indeed one of the top thirty powers in the "Silent Annihilation Immortal World," their speed and accuracy in gathering information are incredibly frightening. With each piece of news, the Wei Family Patriarch's face darkened a bit, and finally, he interrupted without waiting to hear more.
"Quickly contact that bastard and tell him to hurry back for me!"
Previous enemies caused by that slut could be tolerated, but the enemy engaged this time, each piece of news makes him feel uneasy just listening to it.
Indeed.
With the Wei Family's strength, an eighth-level Earth Immortal Heavenly Pride is nothing to fear.
But what truly fears him is this individual's potential. If one from the First Grade Continent grows into a Child of Destiny, and if not eliminated immediately, once this person matures, what awaits the Wei Family will be total destruction.
Especially since such individuals tend to grow at an extremely terrifying speed, as shown by them taking just over a decade to rise from Golden Core Peak Cultivation to eighth-level Earth Immortal Cultivation.
This time, he truly cannot clean up the mess.
"Mas... Master!"
The trusted aide standing by quietly said, "The young master has blocked all communication channels, and no one can reach him now."
"Quick, quickly send people to find him!"
"No way!"
The Wei Family Patriarch's face was grim as he pounded the armrest of the chair and immediately stood up, now disregarding anything else: "I will go personally, you come with me, and bring that Luminous Pearl from my study."
"Master..."
The confidant, who had been with the Wei Family Patriarch for a long time, was slightly stunned. He naturally knew how much the master treasured that Luminous Pearl, never allowing outsiders to touch it, and now that he intends to take it with him, its purpose is self-evident. However...
Because he had been with the patriarch long enough, he could speak some things he wouldn't usually say, relying on his seniority.
"No matter how you put it, it's just an eighth-level Earth Immortal, Master, aren't you overvaluing him?"
"Phew..."
The Wei Family Patriarch took a deep breath, with a complicated expression, preparing the Teleportation Array while looking at his confidant: "Do you know how the Wei Family rose to power?"
"I do."
The confidant nodded and recounted from the clan's history: "Thousands of years ago, the Wei Family was just a small family in the 'Silent Annihilation Immortal World.' Later, due to the patriarch's courage, countless families were slaughtered, and their heritage was seized, allowing the Wei Family to quickly rise."
The Wei Family Patriarch shook his head: "The clan's history is not fully recorded. At that time, the Wei Family was no more than a tiny family, and no matter how brave the patriarch was, he didn't have the strength."
"The truth is that..."
"Back then, the Wei Family encountered a man, at death's door but with Heavenly Immortal Peak Cultivation, very young."
"The Wei Family, being kind-hearted at the time, saved him, and this man later asked what the Wei Family Patriarch wanted as a reward, the Patriarch jokingly said, he wished for the Wei Family to become a great family."
"Later... that person left."
"Three years later, he returned with a cultivation no one could contend with, leading the Wei Family's unstoppable rise."
"Do you understand now?"
"Therefore, the Wei Family has always had an ancestral teaching, passed down orally only to the Family Head. It expresses that it is better to offend great families than provoke those heavenly prides, for their rise in power is terrifyingly fast."
"This matter must be taken seriously, and I must personally take action as insurance. In case things really have come to an irretrievable point, as the strongest in the Wei Family, I have the obligation to exert all my strength to remove this potential future threat to the Wei Family completely."
"However, if things have not yet reached an irretrievable point, then my personal appearance and this Luminous Pearl should be able to remedy some of it."
...
At this moment, Chen Qiu had no knowledge of the approaching storm.
