Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Chapter 1429: Chapter 770: Do You Know, the Red Dragon Son Is My Child

At this moment, the hall was in a frenzy.

Liu Dushi’s words were like a stone stirring up a thousand waves; the Zhao Family could no longer suppress their inner indignation, and vehemently rebutted him loudly.

For a while, the sound in the hall was thunderous, and the sound of scolding and angry cursing echoed incessantly.

“Hmph!”

A sudden cold snort, like a thunderstorm in the dry season, instantly silenced all the noise in the hall.

In an instant, the Zhao Family, as if their acupoints had been pressed, simultaneously fell silent.

Liu Dushi casually flicked his fingers, and lazily spoke, “You are angry, seems I hit the nail on the head, otherwise, why are you so anxious.”

Zhao Xiandu’s expression was extremely serious, and he said loudly, “Taoist Liu, your remarks are extremely absurd. You are groundlessly slandering my Zhao Family, how can you not allow us to refute your words. Although our family is located in a remote area and our influence is weak, we cannot allow such baseless accusations.

Liu Dushi, retract your words quickly. Otherwise… hehe!”

“Otherwise, what? How does Mr. Liu find it hard to understand. Do you intend to use weapons and keep us here? Who gave you such courage? Is it your ancestor who has already broken his power? Want to use force when words fail, you truly are audacious!” To everyone’s surprise, Liu Dushi showed no fear, but instead, arrogantly issued a series of soul-searching questions.

The Zhao Family, seeing this person distort facts, felt extremely aggrieved and were close to bursting with anger.

Zhao Xiandu’s face turned red with fury, but he was unable to act out. Just because he was anxious and misspoke, he landed in an awkward predicament where he was caught blindly.

“Liu Dushi, I was overzealous in my speech earlier. It wasn’t my intention. Please be generous and don’t take it to heart. Later, my family will present a generous gift to show our apology.”

In consideration of the bigger picture, Zhao Xiandu had no choice but to choose to make peace actively.

“What, trying to bribe me? How utterly ridiculous! Mr. Liu has always remained incorruptible and upright. To let mere treasure tempt me into error, you’re dreaming!” Liu Dushi spoke with great righteousness.

He didn’t even give Zhao Xiandu a chance to explain, directly saying: “I’ll say it one last time. Out of respect for Elder Xianglong, I’ll wait for an hour.

After an hour, I’ll leave immediately. But next time, the ones who come to take the person won’t be us few, but the All Heaven Twelve Fiend Gods.

The words have been spoken, whether to hand over the person or not, you must decide yourselves!”

After saying these words, Liu Dushi actually closed his eyes, pretending to rest idly.

One must admit, his words were sharp and hit home.

For a while, the Zhao Family was in a bit of chaos, as countless Divine Thoughts clashed silently, even stirring up a Divine Thought Storm in mid-air due to the intense arguing.

To hand over or protect the person, this was a matter concerning the life and death of the family!

Within the Zhao Family, Red Dragon Son has always been the most special, simply because he is the sole bloodline left by the Ancestor.

If the Ancestor had already fallen, that would make things easier. But if the Ancestor were still alive, and upon his return to the family finds Red Dragon Son missing… the consequences would be unimaginable!

Time passed bit by bit, the Zhao Family had long been divided into two major camps, unable to convince each other.

However, under the realistic threat, those agreeing to hand over the person gradually gained the upper hand.

As the Ancestor has been missing for hundreds of years, whether dead or alive is still unknown.

Currently, the most important thing is to preserve the family legacy; even if Red Dragon Son is special, he cannot compare with the preciousness of millions of lives in the whole family!

It was precisely this “greater good” that allowed those favoring handing over the person to gain the upper hand.

Just as everyone’s stance was gradually uniting, and the hour was nearing its end, a tall and slender figure suddenly appeared out of thin air in the center of the hall.

Liu Dushi seemed to sense some anomaly, suddenly opened his eyes, only to see the “uninvited guest” at first glance.

“Ah?!”

At the same time, someone’s exclamation immediately interrupted the debate among everyone.

Immediately, several Zhao Family elders were instantly stunned into silence, involuntarily shouting, “Ancestor?!”

“It’s truly the Ancestor!”

“Hahaha, the Ancestor has finally returned!”

Seeing the Ancestor, who had disappeared for hundreds of years, suddenly appear, everyone present was extremely overjoyed.

Those who reacted quickly, like Zhao Xiandu, immediately rose to bow deeply, shouting, “Junior clansman Xiandu, welcomes the return of the Ancestor!”

Upon his reminder, others immediately responded and stood up to formally greet.

In an instant, the entire hall was filled with kneeling people.

“You may be excused!” Zhao Sheng smiled slightly, nodded warmly.

The Zhao Family members all got up, then automatically moved to the sides to welcome the Ancestor to sit.

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng floated up and landed on the Jade Chair at the topmost position, sitting down gracefully.

Only then did Liu Dushi suddenly awaken as if just waking up from a dream, hurried from his chair to bow to Zhao Sheng, “Taiyi Spirit Palace fifth-generation disciple Liu Tonghe, pays respect to Senior Zhao. Junior congratulates Senior on your return to Taiyi Heaven.”

Zhao Sheng nodded somewhat coldly, suddenly said: “Do you know, Red Dragon Son is my son?”

Upon hearing this, Liu Tonghe immediately felt his heart sink, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, hastily explained: “Senior may not be aware, Red Dragon Son has already become a Fallen Demon. According to the Immortal Venerable’s decree, we Qintian Guard must take him back to report. This matter is irreversible, please do not make things difficult for us.”

With a slap, Liu Tonghe was instantly slapped flying backward, crashing hard against the walls of the hall before falling to the ground.

Thud!

Liu Tonghe got back up off the ground, opened his mouth and spewed a large amount of bloodwater, which even contained dozens of teeth.

Then, his entire face visibly swelled and deformed, transforming into a pighead in the blink of an eye.

“You… you woo woo… must go back… violating heavenly rules…” Liu Tonghe’s eyes ablaze as he looked at Zhao Sheng, incoherently shouting.

Though it was unclear what he was saying, everyone understood the meaning in his words.

The group of red-robed Qintian Guards saw their leader beaten, they were somewhat agitated, yet none dared to act.

To dare act against a Half-Immortal of the Void, that truly was a case of a birthday star eating arsenic, having lived long enough!

After hitting the man, Zhao Sheng said fiercely: Hmph, my son will be disciplined by me, no need for outsiders to interfere. Today, I hit you to teach you a lesson. If you’re not convinced, ask your superior to come personally.”

“Senior’s words, Mr. Liu has noted and will report them completely to the superiors… we’re leaving!”

Liu Tonghe made an effort to maintain composure, leaving a few official phrases, and then immediately turned around, hurriedly walking out of the hall.

The red-robed Qintian Guards also slipped out of the hall without a word.

Seeing the Qintian Guard flee in disarray, Zhao Xiandu was very worried and couldn’t help looking at Zhao Sheng, carefully saying: “Ancestor, these Qintian Guards belong to the Taiyi Spirit Palace, they have always been rampant and arrogant. Today we’ve offended them, I fear there will be serious consequences.”

“No matter, since I dared to act, naturally I have my considerations.” Zhao Sheng waved dismissively, then asked: “You all may disperse, I’ll first go see Hong’er.”

Having just returned, Zhao Sheng’s Divine Thought had already scanned the entire Zhao’s Station, so he naturally knew where Zhao Hong (Red Dragon Son) was held.

Seeing this, Zhao Xiandu hurriedly said: “Ancestor, Red Dragon Son is currently detained in the Bitter Prison for reflection. Please allow this junior to escort you.”

“No need, I will go alone.”

As soon as the words fell, the Ancestor’s figure was no longer in everyone’s sight.
