Chapter 14: Slap in the face! Father

  That aura completely disappeared, and Yi Chen finally regained his freedom. He turned his head towards the source of the sound and found that it was actually Yin Wei who had made the move.

  "How's it going little guy, didn't hurt your bones?" Completely ignoring Yi Shu and others, Yin Wei had a relaxed smile on his face as he walked to Yi Chen's front.

  "Don't worry, I won't die for the time being." Wiping away the blood from his mouth, Yi Chen moved his injured area, and a sharp pain suddenly came, making him grit his teeth. "How is it? Has your old self's strength fully recovered?"

  "Hastily recovering only sixty percent, but I can assure you it's enough." Ying Wei smiled faintly and turned his head to look at Yi Shu.

  "Who are you? How did you end up in my Xiping Horse Ranch?" Yi Shu's face was full of shock, the other party didn't release any aura, but it gave him a very heavy feeling.

  "Who I am is none of your business." Although Yin Wei's face was extremely calm, the words were filled with arrogance.

  The old man who loves to pretend. This is Yi Chen's brand new evaluation of him, but when he saw Yi Shu being bullied, Yi Chen actually felt a kind of refreshing feeling.

  "Old rascal, now look at you still being arrogant." Under the big tree is a good place to cool off, having a powerful teacher makes all the difference. Standing behind Yin Wei's back, Yi Chen hooked up a smile at the corner of his mouth.

  "Even if your cultivation is higher than mine, this is a private matter of the Yi family. Do you want to bully the weak and intervene in the affairs of the Yi family?" Yi Shu sneered coldly.

  "Bullying the weak with strength, how is that?" He smiled indifferently, and his body trembled slightly, leaving a residual shadow in place. The next second, he appeared behind Yi Shu, raised his hand and slapped him.

  "Peng." Ying Wei's speed was too fast, and Yi Shu hadn't even reacted yet when he felt a forceful impact on his back, sending him flying out with a massive force, falling to the ground far away.

  A strong man who can slaughter a level-four demon beast was powerless in front of Yin Wei, and the former still had a relaxed expression, which made the eyes of the people present dull.

  "This is too strong, right?" Yi Chen's eyes widened in shock, clearly stunned by Yin Wei's move. Although he knew Yin Wei was very powerful, being able to swat Yi Shu away like a fly still left him feeling astonished.

  Those guards were also dull-eyed, with a look of disbelief flashing in their eyes. The usually high and mighty elder actually had such a miserable time.

  "How dare you." Yi Shu's old face turned bright red, unsure if it was from injury or shame and anger. After getting up from the ground, he shouted: "You actually dared to hit me, are you trying to bully my family because we have no one?"

  "Your skills are not strong, but your ability to rely on others is quite good." Ying Wei disappeared again and reappeared in front of Yi Shu, grabbing his neck and lifting him up, saying: "I'm bullying you, what can you do?"

  Arrogant, absolutely arrogant. Seeing this scene, Yi Chen's eyes flashed with a strange color. This is a world where the strong are respected, and the weak can only be trampled on. Only the strong can live with dignity. The scene in front of him was the best example, which made Yi Chen yearn for strength even more.

  Yi Shu's face turned beet red as he was pinned down by Yin Wei, who had a tight grip on his neck. He struggled with all his might to break free, but the other man's strength far surpassed his own, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't shake him off.

  Those soldiers wanted to go forward and help, but unfortunately, they were no match for the enemy, so going would be a futile death, so they made a very rational choice to watch.

  "Little guy, kill or not?" Indifferently smiled, Yin Wei turned his head towards Yi Chen and said.

  Being asked this way, Yi Chen's eyebrows furrowed, and after a moment of relaxation, his eyes gradually turned cold, and his fists clenched.

  Yi Jie is Yi Shu's grandson, the former must be instructed by the latter to harm Yi Chen. This is a world where the strong are respected, and there is no need for sympathy or pity.

  "Teacher, let him go." An unexpected sentence came out of Yi Chen's mouth.

  Although he had a grudge against Yi Shu, Yi Chen also wanted to rely on his own strength. He didn't want to lean too heavily on others. Moreover, it wasn't the time to eliminate Yi Shu yet, or else it would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the other elders of the family.

  A big tree attracts the wind. If there is turmoil within the family, it will definitely be taken advantage of by external enemies who are watching closely. It was precisely because of this consideration that Yi Chen made such a decision.

  After half a year at the horse farm, Yi Chen learned what it means to endure humiliation. All the humiliation he suffered, he would repay double with his own two hands.

  A hint of gratification flashed in his eyes, and Yin Wei nodded secretly. The mainland of Longyuan had many talents with exceptional natural abilities, but most of them perished halfway. Having one's sharp edges exposed wasn't always a good thing; Yi Chen's decision made him feel doubly grateful.

  "Peng." With a casual flick of his right hand, Yi Shu, who was being held around the neck by Yin Wei, was tossed out and slammed into the ground in the distance.

  "Cough, cough." He looked quite wretched, Yi Shu covered his neck and started coughing, staring at Yin Wei with a resentful gaze, but didn't dare to make a move.

  Slowly shifting his gaze onto Yi Chen's body, Yi Shu's eyes were filled with coldness and astonishment. He was extremely perplexed. When did Yi Chen find such a powerful master?

  "You old rascal, one day I'll chop you up myself." A cold gaze came over, and Yi Chen turned his head to meet Yi Shu's eyes, silently snorting in his heart.

  "Drive, drive." At this time, several shouts came from afar, instantly attracting the attention of Yi Chen and others. They turned their heads to look over, only to see a carriage pulled by three demonic beasts rushing towards them.

  The three-headed demon beast pulling the cart were all first-class demon beasts, the Mochi Beast, which looked very similar to a deer. An old man held a long whip, driving several Mochi Beasts, with a flag of the Yi family inserted on top of the carriage.

  "It's the family of Yi Jia's charioteer, I don't know who has come." Seeing this situation, a look of confusion flashed in Yi Chen's eyes.

  The chariot of millet is only available for the high-ranking officials of Yi's family, and generally, the high-ranking officials of Yi's family would not come to the horse farm, so Yi Chen was very curious. Even Yi Shu was the same.

  "Hush." The carriage pulled by the three Chi Tu beasts quickly approached under everyone's gaze, and when it arrived not far from Yi Chen and the others, the old driver pulled on the reins, and the three Chi Tu beasts stopped at the same time.

  "Yi Zongguan, how did he end up here." After getting a clear look at the old man's appearance, Yi Chen secretly felt surprised and suspicious.

  Although it had been half a year since they last met, Yi Chen could be certain that the old man was the steward of the Yi family, and his personal strength was no weaker than that of the elders of the Yi family.

  "Yi Lin, how did you end up here?" Yi Shu also had the same question and asked aloud.

  "I just saw the horse farm send out an emergency signal, the master is worried and specially sent me with young master to come and check."

  Yi Lin glanced sideways at Yi Shu, then shifted her gaze to Yi Chen's body. When she saw that the latter was unharmed, she visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

  "Big Young Master? Yi Lin Shu, could it be that Father has also arrived?" Upon hearing Yi Lin's words, Yi Chen was taken aback for a moment before quickly asking.

  "It's the young master." Yi Lin wrinkled up that old face, revealing a smile, and then lifted the tarpaulin of the cart, and suddenly a sturdy middle-aged man appeared under his eyelids.

  Unlike his robust build, his face was pale with no hint of blood color, as if he had suffered a serious injury that had not healed, and his lips were purple.

  Seeing the middle-aged man, Yi Chen's eyes flashed with excitement. He was Yi Chen's father in this life - Yi Kui! Since coming here, he had not seen him again.

  Yi Kui also saw Yi Chen, and a hint of kindness flashed in his dull eyes.

  With Yí Lín's support, Yí Kuí got down from the rickety cart and sat in a wooden wheelchair, which was pushed by Yí Lín towards Yí Chén.

  That's right. The former number one war general of the Yuan Xuan Empire is now sitting in a wheelchair and can only move around with the help of a wheelchair!

  "Hmph." Looking at the wooden wheelchair, Yi Chen's fists clenched in an instant, a thick hatred flashing in his eyes, his heart choked with a fierce anger.

  He will never forget what happened half a year ago when Yi Kui returned from the expedition. That expedition changed Yi Kui into his current state.

  "Chen Er, you've worked hard for the past half year." As he came to Yi Chen's side, a joyful expression floated onto Yi Kui's pale face.

  "Father, why have you come back here?" Those words of grievance didn't amount to much for Yi Chen. He took a deep breath, calming the violent anger in his heart, and said.

  "It was circumstances that brought you here in the first place. This time, I've come to take you back to the Yi household."

  "Go home?" Hearing this word which was originally very distant, Yi Chen didn't react for a moment.

  "No way, Yi Chen has already been expelled from the Yi family and his name was removed from the family tree long ago. He is no longer a member of the Yi family and doesn't have the qualifications to stay in the Yi house." A voice shouted from not far away by Yi Shu.

  If he were mediocre, it would be fine, but Yi Chen happened to show extraordinary cultivation talent. This is a potential threat, so Yi Shu must stop him.

  "Yi Chen may have left the Yi family, but he still has the blood of the Yi family flowing through his veins. How can you elders decide whether he stays or goes?" Yi Lin said with a snort.

  "The elders have the right to supervise Yi family's disciples. If Yichen wants to return to the Yi family, he must get our consent."

  "This Fifth Elder doesn't need to worry. The family head has already spoken with the Great Elders, as long as Yi Chen can achieve a top three ranking at the Family Gathering, he will be able to return to the Yi Estate." Yi Kui's eyes flashed with anger, but he forced himself to remain calm.

  "Tribe meeting?" Upon hearing these words, a strange glint flashed in Yi Chen's eyes.

  Yi's family is one of the three major families in the Yuan Xuan Empire, with a foundation that other forces can only look up to but cannot reach. However, for a family to prosper forever, it needs an endless supply of fresh blood.

  The Yi family holds a clan meeting every two years, and all members over 15 years old must attend. At that time, the collateral members of the Yi family will come to participate, and it is very lively.

  This is the Yi family's selection of fresh blood, so it's very grand. As long as you get a top ten score, you can get a very good reward, so all the participating disciples are very enthusiastic.

  This year Yi Chen is already fifteen years old, if he was still in the Yi family, he would probably have started preparing for the clan meeting.

  "Will you admit it?" Two sharp glints flashed across Yi Chen's eyes, and his fists clenched in that instant.
