Central County.
The news of the Ji family, one of the three great families of the Eastern Region, being challenged had already spread throughout the Central County.
That seemingly simple and dull youth had a wooden saber hanging on his back. He looked very ordinary, but he had actually arrogantly said that, among the Ji family of the same generation as him, there was not a single genius worth their salt, and that they were all trash.
His following words were, “If you’re not satisfied, then let’s fight!”
The supporter behind that simple and dull youth was actually the third young miss of the Yu family, Yu Beibei.
The arena was erected directly in front of the main entrance to the Ji family’s residence.
Yu Beibei had even mobilized the Yu family’s forces and spread the news everywhere. Now everyone in Central County knew about this matter.
Everyone was puzzled. Why was Yu Beibei doing this? Could it be that some genius of the Ji family had offended her?
Yu Beibei was not just the pearl of the Yu family. She was also the fiancée of the number one genius of the Eastern Region, Ling Baiyun.
The Yu family and the Ling family had a marriage engagement.
There was something strange about this matter.
No matter what was going on behind the scenes, the Ji family could not just sit by and do nothing when someone erected an arena in front of their door,
Moreover, they could not bully the weak with the strong.
Otherwise, would it not confirm that the younger generation of the Ji family was trash?
The elders of the Ji family did not take this matter to heart. They only treated it as a joke between members of the younger generation.
However, the matter developed in a way they had not expected.
On the first day, all the Ji family geniuses under the age of 30 were crushed.
One punch after another, they were beaten until they were left lying unconscious on the arena platform.
Emperor realm expert!
That simple and dull youth was actually an Emperor realm expert?
Those who were more than 100 years old could also be called part of the younger generation if they were cultivators.
However, why did he have to bully those below the Emperor realm?
Thus, the Ji family’s Emperor realm geniuses made their move.
First-level Emperor realm, defeated!
Second-level Emperor realm, defeated!
Third-level Emperor realm, similarly defeated!
As such, the Ji family’s higher-ups had no choice but to take this matter seriously.
This was no longer a simple farce between members of the younger generation.
This youth had directly attacked the Ji family’s pride, and wanted to trample upon the Ji family’s dignity!
Patriarch Ji first sent a message to Patriarch Yu, inquiring as to what the Yu family’s intentions were.
In the end, Patriarch Yu replied that this matter had nothing to do with the Yu family, and that it was only because his daughter’s life had been saved by that youth that he had repaid the latter’s kindness.
This was a grudge between the Ji family and that youth!
Since it had nothing to do with the Yu family, then the Ji family had nothing to worry about.
However, the matter of this youth challenging the Ji family’s geniuses had already spread throughout the entire Central County.
Moreover, the Ji family had been defeated consecutively.
If the older generation were to make a move at this time, they would definitely be ridiculed, and their younger generation would be forced to hang their heads in shame.
As one of the three great families in the Eastern Region, the Ji family cared about their reputation.
Unless saving their reputation was no longer viable, the older generation would not make a move.
There were many Emperor realm experts in the Ji family!
There were even Emperor realm experts among the younger generation who possessed outstanding talent.
Therefore, a sixth-level Emperor realm expert from the Ji family’s younger generation made a move.
Among the martial artists, this expert was actually much older than Chu Pingfan!
In a remote corner of Central County, there was a small shop.
Chu Yuan’s face looked much more haggard than before.
He looked at the street outside the shop with a bitter expression.
Since he had not been able to see his wife since he came to the Eastern Region, he knew that the Ji family had not completely disowned him as their son-in-law.
It was just that they needed him to show off his abilities.
They gave him this shop. As long as he could manage the shop well and displayed outstanding management talent, the Ji family would accept him as their son-in-law.
As for cultivation talent, the Ji family did not lack it.
Chu Yuan could not be said to be very outstanding among the Ji family’s geniuses.
Thus, they gave him a way out by asking him to manage the shop. As long as he had the ability to make it prosper, the Ji family would also accept him.
Initially, everything went smoothly. After all, Chu Yuan was still a Heaven’s Blessed. He still had the fortune of having been taught by Chu Qiuluo.
The shop’s business quickly recovered, but then a love rival appeared.
The guy who had pursued Chu Pingfan’s mother back then came out to suppress Chu Yuan, but the Ji family did not give him any support.
Without sufficient strength and support, no matter how brilliant Chu Yuan’s methods were, there was nothing he could do.
No method could withstand the oppression of absolute strength.
As a result, the shop’s business, which had just started to improve, was instantly thrown down the gutter again.
The Ji family called him a useless person who was unworthy of being the Ji family’s son-in-law.
Recently, he also heard that the Ji family was preparing to marry his wife to that love rival because the other party did not mind that the Ji family’s young miss had once married someone else!
What a shame!
Chu Yuan felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
Yesterday, that love rival had come once again to cause another ruckus and beat him up.
The reason was that his wife would rather kill herself than remarry.
Chu Yuan was very worried. If this situation continued, the other party would either use him to threaten his wife, or go to the Chu family’s territory in the Southern Region and use Chu Pingfan as a hostage.
The situation was very bad!
However, he could not do anything about it.
Recently, he heard that there was a young man who came to challenge the geniuses of the Ji family.
Chu Yuan could only hope that this young man could stall for time, and perhaps even mess up the Ji family.
He closed the door and walked toward the Ji family’s residence.
He went to see the young man who challenged the Ji family for himself.
After so many years, his cultivation had risen to the ninth level of the truth realm.
However, he was still far from breaking through to the Emperor realm.
The Ji family’s Emperor realm geniuses had been defeated consecutively.
Chu Pingfan stood in front of the Ji family’s door with a wooden saber in his hand, his gaze sharp.
“Is this one of the Ji family’s geniuses? He’s worse than trash!”
Many of the surrounding cultivators gloated over the Ji family’s misfortune. When they saw the Ji family make a fool of themselves, they were extremely happy.
The bigger the family, the more grudges they had.
The expressions of the Ji family’s higher-ups were extremely unsightly.
If they did not defeat the challenger, the Ji family would lose their dignity and their reputation would be greatly tarnished.
“Tiancheng, you go.”
The Ji family’s patriarch, Ji Xinming, said.
“Yes, Father.”
The white-clothed, tall Ji Tiancheng walked out of the Ji family’s residence with a sword in his hand.
Following Ji Tiancheng’s appearance, all of the surrounding martial artists were shocked.
“It’s Ji Tiancheng!”
“The Ji family’s strongest genius, a hundred-year-old Emperor realm expert. He’s now at the ninth level of the Emperor realm and has the best chance of reaching the Heaven realm.”
“This challenger has completely enraged the Ji family.”
Chu Pingfan looked at Ji Tiancheng, who was walking over, and tightened his grip over the wooden saber in his hand.
His opponent’s cultivation level was higher than his, but Chu Pingfan was not afraid at all. A cross-realm battle was nothing to him.
Yu Beibei, who was in the crowd, was a little worried when she saw this scene unfold.
She sent over a voice transmission, “Hey, silly boy, if you can’t beat him, just admit defeat. Ji Tiancheng is very powerful!”
Chu Pingfan ignored her.
Ji Tiancheng stopped 30 feet away. He looked at Chu Pingfan coldly and said, “I’m very curious. Who sent you to provoke my Ji family?”
“Don’t think for one second that you’re invincible in the Emperor realm!”
Chu Pingfan held his saber in his hand. “You’re the strongest genius of the Ji family?”
“That’s me!”
Ji Tiancheng admitted it without hesitation.
No one in the Ji family objected either.
“Very good. I’ll trample you under my feet today and tell everyone that the geniuses of the Ji family are all useless and trashy!”
Chu Pingfan’s imposing manner was full of vigor. His third-level Emperor realm cultivation was displayed without reservation.
The scenes from when he was young reappeared in his mind.
Today, he wanted to let the Ji family and those people know that the little trash that they looked down on in the past was now trampling on their so-called geniuses!
