Chapter 878: Chapter 507: Lingtian’s Fall, the Emergence of Opportunity! (Part 3)

Careless…

Xiang Lingtian let out a breath, the daze in his eyes gradually dissipating, and slowly focused on Chen Yuan, feeling seven parts respect, two parts complexity, and one imperceptible part of fear.

How great it would be if a person like this belonged to the Xiang Family!

Using my overwhelming cultivation and the terrifying double pupils, I still couldn’t defeat him, and he managed to turn the tables against the odds; even as his opponent, I find it unbelievable.

Below the Yang Transformation, someone can actually reach this level.

Moreover, he is merely over twenty years old.

Limitless future.

But, admiration aside, respect aside, he knows deeply that this man will inevitably be a great enemy of the Xiang Family in the future, one that will cease only upon death.

“You lost.”

Chen Yuan walked step by step downward.

Looking down at the fallen Xiang Lingtian, barely concerning over his complex expression.

His weak aura, certain death.

Xiang Lingtian’s lips curled:

“Lost, indeed I lost, but don’t celebrate too early, my Xiang Family will not let you go, you have no idea the terror of the Xiang Family.”

As he spoke, blood tears fell from his eyes.

He ruined his own eyes, unwilling to leave them for Chen Yuan.

And actually, Chen Yuan didn’t need them.

“How terrifying is it? Stronger than the court? If so, then you wouldn’t need to hide as rats.”

Chen Yuan’s form stagnated about ten zhang in front of Xiang Lingtian, slowly raising his hand.

Preparing to thoroughly end the opponent and reclaim his Qi Fortune.

Uncertain how this opportunity might turn out.

Could it advance my cultivation further?

But before he could act, before Xiang Lingtian could say any last words, a gleam of blood light suddenly appeared on him, then blossomed under Xiang Lingtian’s somewhat alarmed gaze.

Feeling the devouring power unexpectedly manifest from the Blood Pearl given by the Clan Leader, he seemed somewhat dazed, his flesh beginning to visibly shrink.

Qi and blood being extracted…

“No, no… Clan Leader, you… deceived me…”

Xiang Lingtian’s voice grew weaker, the Blood Pearl not only taking his Xiang Family Divine Blood but also his vitality!

Chen Yuan furrowed his brows, somewhat puzzled at the scene before him.

Seems… somewhat off.

Soon, in just an instant, this previously arrogant heir of the Xiang Family’s branch fell completely lifeless on the spot!

At death, he even became a… desiccated corpse.

Only leaving behind a pair of deep pupils, as though even his eyes were drawn away.

And under Chen Yuan’s Heavenly Eye, a glimmer of Qing-colored Qi Fortune rushed towards him.

…

Liangzhou, a certain mountain summit.

Xiang Qianqiu, lost in thought with closed eyes, slowly opened them, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

If observed closely, one would see that his pupils similarly showed two at once.

Double pupils!!!

Xiang Qianqiu also possessed double pupils!

But the circumstances weren’t simple; actually, the awakened double pupils on Xiang Lingtian were a strand of origin planted by Xiang Qianqiu during his childhood, hence the warning not to frequently use double pupils.

For using them excessively would reveal the anomaly within.

Xiang Lingtian, this Xiang Royal Family branch, nurtured from a young age by him, was a replacement, a pawn planned out twenty years ago.

But alas, a replacement is always a replacement.

Never achieving the ideal he’s envisioned.

Fortunately, the original is back!

Xiang Qianqiu’s gaze held traces of reminiscing, a picture from over twenty years ago emerged in his eyes.

It was inside a dilapidated temple where he, through certain means, successfully found that woman, Chen Yuan’s mother, Chen Xuanling.

“Qianqiu, Qianqiu, spare him, won’t you? He is only a child!” Chen Xuanling pleaded bitterly to the young man before her, whose expression was indifferent.

Xiang Qianqiu looked down at Chen Xuanling, and said flatly:

“For the resurrection of Chu, he must be sacrificed; don’t you know how much effort I’ve poured into him?”

Chen Xuanling laughed bitterly:

“Precisely because I know, that I took him away from the Xiang Family, can’t you choose another? Why do you have to treat your own child like this!”

When she was first pregnant, Chen Xuanling was happy, dissipating the grief from her brother’s disappearance, hoping little by little for him to grow up, while Xiang Qianqiu showed deep paternal love.

But inadvertently, she learned the truth was not like that.

Xiang Qianqiu devised every method to produce his bloodline, just to use him for the resurrection of Chu.

So, she fled…

Taking advantage when everyone was unobservant, she fled…

But Xiang Qianqiu remains Xiang Qianqiu; even if she runs to the ends of the earth, she can’t escape his grasp.

For the sake of her swaddled child, she found the painting sage Wu Daozi, begging him to take care of the child; Wu Daozi agreed without saying much.

And she stayed there waiting for Xiang Qianqiu.

“I don’t want to either, but for the resurrection of Chu, it must be this way; at worst, I’ll just have another.” Xiang Qianqiu back then answered Chen Xuanling like this.

But Chen Xuanling, body stiffened, raised her head with tearful eyes gazing at Xiang Qianqiu; it was a strange look, Xiang Qianqiu had changed, no longer the once promising young man.

After enduring countless hardships, his heart for resurrecting Chu deepened, even to an extent of doing whatever it takes to achieve it.

Then, Chen Xuanling killed herself, severing her heart veins, dissipating her cultivation; if Xiang Qianqiu intervened then, he could have saved her, but he didn’t.

Watching calmly as Chen Xuanling’s gaze gradually dispersed.

In his mind, Chen Xuanling’s dying words replayed, clutching his hand:

“He’s your child!”

On the mountain summit, sitting cross-legged, Xiang Qianqiu gazed north, Xuanling’s voice echoed in his ears.

A slight smile crept at his lips:

“He is my child, but… he is also of Xiang Family’s blood.”

“What a shame, I gave you the chance to be an ordinary person for a peaceful life in Ping’an County, yet you insist on entering Jianghu, returning to my view!”
