Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 567 - 566 The Divine Child Yu Wenbai

The Great Elder’s gaze became extremely solemn upon seeing Su Chan draw her sword.

With Su Chan’s attitude being so resolute, this was going to be a difficult situation to handle.

He couldn’t actually kill Su Chan, could he?

But if he didn’t kill Su Chan, he would have no way to kill Xu Ping’an.

At this moment, it gave him quite a headache.

The disciples around them also appeared solemn. How could they kill him if the Thirteenth Princess was protecting Xu Ping’an to this extent?

"Great Elder, let him go." Just then, a voice rang out.

This voice was cold yet filled with an incredibly domineering authority.

Following this, a young man dressed in brocaded robes and a jade crown stepped forward as if walking on air.

The young man was handsome and imposing, his head adorned with a jade crown, as if a fine tree bending gracefully in the breeze.

His entire being radiated an air of nobility.

Upon the appearance of the young man, everyone’s expression turned to one of awe.

"The Divine Son, it’s the Divine Son, the Divine Son has appeared."

Someone suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Immediately, everyone bowed in unison: "We pay our respects to the Divine Son."

Xu Ping’an also saw the man appearing in the sky, his gaze sharp.

He is the Divine Son?

Yu Wenbai?

Very strong, incredibly powerful.

His cultivation had already reached the Semi-Immortal level.

Moreover, the aura he emanated was extremely powerful, as if he had comprehended a very strong Dao Principle Embryo.

He had reached the point where his every action and movement seemed imbued with the charm of the great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

It was a sign of the great Dao of Heaven and Earth reaching perfection.

Even Xu Ping’an dared not claim that he could defeat him.

While Xu Ping’an was sizing up Yu Wenbai, Yu Wenbai’s gaze also fell on Xu Ping’an.

Especially when he saw Su Chan holding Xu Ping’an’s hand, a strong killing intent flashed in his eyes.

"Divine Son, why let him go?" the Great Elder hastily asked.

"This is the Palace Master’s command. Would you rather see the Divine Maiden die here or have her be an enemy to the entire Fire Divine Palace?" Yu Wenbai spoke.

Upon hearing this, the Great Elder and others stiffened.

Even as Great Elders, they still had to show respect to the Divine Son.

After all, the future achievements of the Divine Son would far surpass their own.

What’s more, this was an order from the Palace Master.

"Since it’s the Palace Master’s wish, then let him go. Su Tu, open the Heaven Sealing Great Formation," the Great Elder said.

Upon hearing this, Su Tu seemed hesitant but eventually nodded in agreement.

Then he activated the Formation, opening the Heaven Sealing Great Formation.

The sky’s seal disappeared.

Li Qingyi immediately revealed a slight smile.

Indeed, she hadn’t guessed wrong. With Su Chan there, Xu Ping’an wouldn’t be in danger.

But Yu Wenbai’s appearance was far from good news.

Su Chan was also staring at Yu Wenbai, her gaze still icy as ever.

"Su Chan, the Palace Master has already agreed to let him go. Put away your sword," Yu Wenbai said to Su Chan with a smile.

"Hmph, let’s go," Su Chan snorted coldly and then prepared to leave with Xu Ping’an.

However, before they had gone a few steps, Yu Wenbai on the side suddenly spoke up, "You are Xu Ping’an, managing to reach Semi-Immortal level combat power with the cultivation of an Eighth Rank First Layer Realm. You indeed are a peerless genius. Nevertheless, even so, you are still not worthy of Su Chan. I advise you, after you leave this place, you had better hide yourself far away. Otherwise, the next time I see you, I will kill you."

"Yu Wenbai, are you looking for death?" Su Chan immediately retorted coldly, her gaze sharp as a knife’s edge.

Xu Ping’an, however, just smiled and said, "Next time we meet, who will kill whom is yet to be determined. Yu Wenbai, you have issued a wanted order against me before, coveting Chan Niang. Even if you don’t kill me, I will make sure to kill you."

Upon these words, the entire place was in an uproar.

How could Xu Ping’an be so arrogant to speak of killing Yu Wenbai?

Although they had to admit Xu Ping’an’s combat power was strong and his talent was against the heavens, in their view, the Xu Ping’an of today could by no means be Yu Wenbai’s opponent.

After all, when Yu Wenbai was at Ninth Rank First Layer Realm, he already possessed combat power of the Ninth Rank Peak Level.

Now that he has stepped into the Semi-Immortal Realm, his combat power is definitely not just at a Semi-Immortal level anymore.

"Kill me? Haha, good, very good. It’s the first time anyone has spoken to me like this."

"Xu Ping’an, do you really think you can kill me? With your ant-like insight, I fear you don’t know how powerful a true genius really is."

Yu Wenbai sneered, although Xu Ping’an could fight beyond two ranks of combat power.

But in his eyes, these were just trivial tricks.

A true genius, fundamentally, wouldn’t even bother doing this.

In his view, Xu Ping’an was simply not a true genius at all.

His target had always been the top fifty on the genius list, ranking first on the Emperor’s Body list, and directly stepping onto the Immortal level list.

"Ants? A true genius?" Xu Ping’an laughed lightly.

If he had not obtained the memories of his previous life, perhaps he would have been intimidated by these words.

But he is the reincarnation of the Immortal Emperor, now cultivating again, stronger than in his previous life.

Even when facing those truly top-tier geniuses, he was confident he was not inferior.

All he lacked was time.

"I know you are not convinced, but you have no idea how vast this world is, how powerful the geniuses of this world are," Yu Wenbai said with a cold laugh.

"Are you done talking? If you’re done, get out of the way," Su Chan retorted coldly.

Without waiting for Yu Wenbai’s reply, she immediately took Xu Ping’an and soared into the sky.

Seeing this, Li Qingyi quickly followed suit.

Qing Huo hesitated for a moment, then also soared into the sky.

Soon, the group of four had left Fire Divine Mount, flying a full fifty li distance away.

"Ping’an, you should go now. This is as far as I can take you," Su Chan suddenly stopped and said, looking at Xu Ping’an with a hint of reluctance.

"Auntie, why don’t you come with me?" Xu Ping’an asked.

But Su Chan shook her head, "Ping’an, even though I really want to go with you, I can’t leave now; I still have things to do."

"What things?" Xu Ping’an asked.

"I can’t tell you for the moment, Ping’an, please believe me, everything your aunt is doing is for our own good," Su Chan hurriedly said.

Upon hearing this, Xu Ping’an slightly furrowed his brow.

It seemed Chan Niang was aware of some secrets that he did not know, which is why she was unwilling to leave with him.

Perhaps her leaving with him could possibly put him in danger, which is why she chose to stay.

"Ping’an, although Yu Wenbai’s words were harsh, he had a point. There are too many geniuses in this world. You may not know, some truly ancient powers are awakening. The geniuses from these ancient powers will be incomparably strong, so you must be careful in everything you do," Su Chan said.

Ancient powers awakening?

It seems that the powers that disappeared during the Ancient and Primordial eras are returning?

"How high does Yu Wenbai rank on the genius list with his strength?" Xu Ping’an asked.

"Around the sixties, definitely not in the top fifty. Ping’an, the guys in the top fifty of the genius list are terrifying. Many have hidden their true strength. If you really encounter them, please be extremely cautious," Su Chan hurriedly advised.

Xu Ping’an nodded. Yu Wenbai couldn’t even make it into the top fifty.

It seemed the water of this world was deeper than he had imagined.
