6: How can such an invincible mother keep a low profile?
“Low-key, how can I be low-key? With such an invincible mother and the supreme Chaos Demon God Body, being low-key is simply impossible.”
Chu Tian continued to grumble about his father, Chu Tian King, in his heart.
In the original plot, Great Hatred Demon Lord's incompetent rage was a major factor, but the greatest responsibility for the Chu Family's demise lay with this father.
He squandered a good hand, rendering it useless, and even restricted the potential of his wife Jian Kongzhu and son Chu Tian.
A Genius who remains low-key for too long truly becomes mediocre.
Which Prodigy doesn't exhibit unusual traits from a young age?
Chu Tian looked down the Hengtian Board.
First on the Earth Ranking: Holy Maiden Hui Lian of Cihang Holy Sect. She possesses the Saintess's Physique, was born with Immortal Qi in her mouth, condensed blood at one year old, forged bones at two, and refined spirit at four. She once ranked first in the Blood Condensation Realm, second in the Forging Bone Realm, first in the Refining Spirit Realm, and first in the Body Integration Realm…
Looking further down, there was a string of astonishing feats.
Chu Tian directly skipped over this one. Although she was indeed formidable and beautiful, and a very important female character.
However, Holy Maiden Hui Lian's fated nemesis, the protagonist Ye Fan, was probably still a good-for-nothing at this moment, and it wasn't time for her to emerge yet.
He would deal with her later.
Fourth on the Earth Ranking: Ye Feng, son of Heavenly Hero Emperor. He once ranked third in the Blood Condensation Realm, fifth in the Forging Bone Realm, and in the Refining Spirit Realm…
“Ye Feng.”
A cold glint flashed in Chu Tian's eyes. This person was the fiancé of his eldest sister, Chu Yunshang, who was born with a Saint Bone. He was also the epitome of harshness, ruthlessness, and cold-blooded indifference.
His eldest sister, Chu Yunshang, would later be known as the Heartless Demonic Woman, scorned by the Hengtian Continent and pursued by various Sects, all for his sake.
Yet, Chu Yunshang ultimately died by his hand. His act of sacrificing his loved ones for the greater good, killing his own Dao Companion, ironically cemented his reputation.
“In this life, I will never allow such a tragedy to befall my Family.”
Chu Tian looked at the name Ye Feng, a terrifying killing intent flickering in his eyes. His gaze finally settled on the fifth spot on the Forging Bone Rankings, on a name called Ye Qiang.
Ye Qiang, Ye Fan's biological elder brother.
Ye Fan, despite being so useless, was able to remain in the Ye Family without being expelled, all thanks to the support of this biological elder brother.
Later, when Heavenly King Emperor Lord died tragically and the Chu Family was annihilated, it was this seemingly honest and simple, yet fiercely resolute Ye Qiang who killed the most ruthlessly, not even sparing the Chu Family's infants. He told Ye Fan that if you don't cut the grass by the roots, it will grow back with the spring breeze, and that he would handle such dirty work.
Ye Qiang is also the strongest Forging Bone Realm cultivator in Saint Heaven Sect currently, twelve years old, Forging Bone Ninth Layer, with three hundred thousand catties of immense strength, capable of killing ten Ancient Mammoth Giant Elephants in one minute.
First on the Forging Bone Rankings: Hui Mei of Cihang Holy Sect, Forging Bone Tenth Layer, ninety thousand catties of immense strength, in one minute…
Sixth on the Forging Bone Rankings: Liu Yun of Saint Heaven Sect.
Ninth: Ye Tian of Saint Heaven Sect.
Thirteenth: Ye… of Saint Heaven Sect.
On various rankings, the names of Ye Family Disciples were frequently seen, and there were many other Disciples from Saint Heaven Sect. However, the Chu Family, the founding Family of Saint Heaven Sect, had very few, almost no, names of its Family Disciples listed.
To avoid arousing the Ye Family's wariness, Chu Tian King not only kept his biological son low-key, but also strictly forbade many Chu Family Disciples from standing out and competing with the Ye Family.
The rumors of the Chu Family's decline circulating externally were not unfounded.
A cold glint flickered in Chu Tian's eyes. When a fierce beast retracts its fangs and claws, people will inevitably think it has grown old.
This situation is extremely dangerous and must not be allowed to continue.
With a preliminary future plan in mind,
Chu Tian strode into the Sect. Instead of returning to the Chu Family, he headed towards the Eternal Heaven Hall.
…
Eternal Heaven Hall.
As Chu Tian stepped into the palace, gasps of cold air immediately came from ahead, followed by overwhelming praises.
“Only thirty seconds, and Ye Qiang has already killed fifteen Ancient Mammoth Giant Elephants.”
“Forty seconds, twenty.”
“Is Ye Qiang going to challenge for the top spot on the Forging Bone Rankings?”
“This generation of the Ye Family, besides that good-for-nothing Ye Fan, are all incredibly strong.”
“Could it be that the rule of rotating the Sect Master position in our Saint Heaven Sect this generation is about to be broken, and the Ye Family will continue to hold the position?”
“The Sect Master's son, Ye Feng, is already Heaven-Defying enough, and Ye Qiang's momentum in catching up is also fierce.”
“Fifty seconds, twenty-five Mammoth Giants, ten more seconds…”
“Twenty-eight now.”
Chu Tian looked up and saw that behind Ye Qiang's name, ranked fifth on the Body Forging Rankings, the numbers were constantly jumping. The one-minute countdown wasn't over yet, but the number of Ancient Mammoth Giant Elephants killed had already reached thirty.
However, Chu Tian didn't pay much attention, standing quietly and waiting for Ye Qiang to come out.
Ye Qiang was not his objective for coming here, and he didn't have the time or energy to bother with such a supporting character right now.
Finally, when the minute ended, the number of Mammoth Giants Ye Qiang had killed reached thirty-three.
He was killing one Ancient Mammoth Giant Elephant, each possessing one hundred thousand catties of immense strength, almost every two seconds, which was infinitely close to instant kill territory.
Ye Qiang's ranking also instantly rose to third place on the Forging Bone Rankings.
Ye Qiang, Forging Bone Ninth Layer, five hundred thousand catties of immense strength, killed thirty-three Ancient Mammoth Giant Elephants in one minute.
Suddenly, the Hengtian Board's Earth Ranking also began to glow, and Ye Qiang's name appeared at the very end, ninety-ninth.
Earth Ranking ninety-nine, Ye Qiang, twelve years old, once ranked fourth in the Blood Condensation Realm, and third in the Forging Bone Realm.
“Hiss!”
Inside the palace, numerous Saint Heaven Sect Disciples cast envious and jealous gazes.
Saint Heaven Sect alone had millions of Inner Sect Disciples. Less than one in ten thousand could make it onto a ranking, and only one person every few years could make it onto the Earth Ranking.
Being on the Earth Ranking meant entering the scope of the Sect's key cultivation.
Even being the very last name was a huge honor, as well as an endless supply of resources.
A vortex appeared on the golden giant stone, and a robust young man with a buzz cut, dressed in coarse gray cloth, walked out of it.
“Detected a pseudo-Luck Child, Ye Qiang.” A gentle and pleasant prompt sounded in Chu Tian's ear.
“System, what is a pseudo-Luck Child?” Chu Tian asked.
“The Luck Child possesses immense Luck. Those close to him will also be enveloped by the overflowing Luck and will grow alongside the Luck Child, thus they are designated as pseudo-Luck Children,” the System explained, then added a reminder.
“Targeting a pseudo-Luck Child also falls under the category of suppressing the Luck Child, and will cause a significant blow to the Luck Child's Luck.”
At this moment, Ye Qiang, who had just walked out of the golden vortex, immediately noticed Chu Tian at the entrance. A cold glint flashed in his eyes: “Chu Tian, you slandered my younger brother, and instead of hiding in the Chu Family, you actually dared to come to the Eternal Heaven Hall.”
A strong Evil Qi flickered in Ye Qiang's eyes. He had rushed to the Eternal Heaven Hall for the test precisely because he had learned that his younger brother had been arrested by the Sect.
After all, only if he was good enough would the Family consider his efforts and protect his younger brother, Ye Fan.
But what he hated even more was Chu Tian.
His younger brother's meridians were severed, which was pitiful enough, yet this guy not only showed no sympathy but even slandered his biological younger brother, putting him in danger.
The reason he recognized Chu Tian was from an occasion when Chu Tian went to the Liu Family to find Liu Yun. He happened to be at the Liu Family with his younger brother Ye Fan and had seen Chu Tian from a distance.
