Chapter 2939 - 2913: Failed? (Sixth Update)
Chapter 2939: Chapter 2913: Failed? (Sixth Update)
"It’s nothing for now," Ye Chen said softly.
Concern leads to chaos, Ye Lingtian’s words immediately made Ye Niang halt her steps. A strange glimmer flashed in her beautiful eyes, Hall Master?
This title...
All the other members of the Ye family also showed a look of doubt, especially Ye Tanzhu and Ye Sheng, who were particularly suspicious.
"Hall Master, hehe, it seems our Chief has been hiding quite a lot of things," Ye Sheng sneered softly.
"This Ye Lingtian didn’t show much respect to the ancestors, yet he gives a servant’s courtesy to Ye Chen. If there’s no secret behind this, who would believe it?"
Ye Tanzhu also spoke with a sarcastic tone.
Ye Sheng continued, "It seems like our ancestral rite has failed this time. As the Chief, he doesn’t care about the family’s survival but first shows concern for someone irrelevant, hehe..."
"Buzz!"
Almost as if prompted by some unseen force, just as Ye Sheng finished speaking, a cold voice echoed in the surrounding void!
With these sounds, dense formation patterns began to appear in the void around the Reincarnation Star Stone. The bright patterns were complex and mysterious, originally meant to protect and seal the Reincarnation Star Stone, but at this moment, the patterns were slowly disappearing.
"Is this..."
All the disciples were stunned, eyes wide with disbelief as they watched the dense formation patterns shrink and vanish from all directions...
"Could it be... someone has passed the inheritance ritual!" Ye Sheng and Ye Tanzhu exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.
As the last formation pattern dissipated, the entire Reincarnation Star Stone suddenly released a powerful wave, like emotions repressed for countless years suddenly unleashed. The terrifying energy formed a shockwave that instantly knocked everyone to the ground.
The automatic dissolution of the sealed array formation meant something that could not be clearer to Ye family members.
For endless ages, every ten thousand years, the Ye family would send dozens of elite disciples to this Ancestral Land to attempt to pass the inheritance ritual and receive the ancestors’ approval, trying to reuse the Reincarnation Star Stone.
Yet it always ended in failure.
Repeated failures nearly extinguished the family’s faith from top to bottom.
Just like when Ye Sheng, Ye Tanzhu, and others were suddenly interrupted in their assessments and appeared in this Little World, their first reaction was not that someone succeeded but that they had failed.
And now, as this dreamlike scene unfolded before their eyes, everyone was stunned, unable to react for a long time.
Until Ye Lingtian was suddenly drawn towards the Reincarnation Star Stone, visibly swirling laws encircled him, with countless Dao Traces shuttling through his body.
Seeing this, Ye Tanzhu and the others were taken aback. This was the Reincarnation Star Stone gifting its bounty to the successor who passed the inheritance ritual!
If nothing unexpected happens, once this baptism of Heavenly Dao is completed, Ye Lingtian could likely ascend two more small levels!
Meanwhile, the Blood Essence Sealing God Pearl, originally kept with Ye Chen, flew out on its own and whooshed to Ye Lingtian’s side.
Like a jubilant child, it flitted around Ye Lingtian, circling him up and down. One after another, the laws of life manifested, making Ye Lingtian’s blood essence burn like a celestial furnace!
The family’s Supreme Treasure has recognized its master!
This signifies that the person who successfully passed the inheritance ritual is none other than Ye Lingtian!
Watching this scene, Ye Sheng suddenly thought of what he had just said.
Failed inheritance?
Indifferent?
Everything before him felt like a resounding slap in the face, leaving him dizzy and unable to describe his feelings at this moment.
Happy? Or should he be sad?
Ye Tanzhu’s emotions were also complex. As a disciple of the Ye family, he hoped this ancestral rite would succeed, but he did not want to see Ye Lingtian recognized.
Even if it was Ye Sheng or Ye Niang, his longtime competitors, he would have been willing.
As the final gifting ceremony unfolded, some members of the Ye family had joyful expressions, clenching their fists tightly with excitement. The ancestral rite succeeded, and from their generation, the Ye family would begin its journey to flourish.
They would become the most brilliant and glorious generation of the Ye family in tens of thousands of years.
Even though they were just witnesses for now, they believed firmly that there would be opportunities for merit in the future.
The road to rise would certainly be fraught with battles.
On the other hand, another part of them, like Ye Tanzhu and Ye Sheng, had mixed feelings.
"You two, are you just going to stand by and watch?"
Suddenly, a ghostly voice echoed in the minds of Ye Sheng and Ye Tanzhu, and they looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.
"His current level of cultivation is already extremely high, and now he has the Supreme Treasure recognizing him and received the Heavenly Stone’s gift. Once the ritual is over and he returns to peak-level, it’ll be too late for regrets."
The voice continued speaking to them, containing a hint of killing intent, "The ancestral rite is already successful, and the existence of the Chief is not important. After all, the Reincarnation Star Stone doesn’t need a Chief to be taken.
Think about it, for all these years, how much have our families sacrificed for this day? How much have we given? Are we just going to let an outsider pluck the fruit?"
The continuous transmissions made Ye Sheng and Ye Tanzhu’s expressions grow increasingly grim and sinister.
Everything else was trivial, but the last sentence truly struck at the core of their hearts.
As the main forces of the Ye family, both Ye Sheng and the faction behind Ye Tanzhu had poured countless resources and sacrificed much for the family’s restoration over the years.
Only to find the greatest benefit was about to go into the hands of an ’outsider.’ Even if he bore the bloodline of the Ye family, and even if he was the one who passed the inheritance ritual, it was unacceptable!
Since the inheritance ritual has been passed, and the seal on Ye family’s Supreme Treasure has been lifted, then this ’outsider’s’ mission should be more or less complete now.
However, there’s still a pressing issue...
As the person in the transmission said, considering Ye Lingtian’s strength and powerful bloodline, could they win smoothly after taking action?
Moreover, this person transmitting information must have other intentions; otherwise, why secretly incite instead of stepping up to lead?
In response to the duo’s concerns, the mysterious voice chuckled and said, "Precisely because Ye Lingtian’s strength is great, we need to divide forces, can’t all oppose him at once. Surely, you understand surprise attack tactics?"
"Then why shouldn’t we be the ones to deliver the surprise?" Ye Tanzhu said in a deep voice.
"Considering your relationship with Ye Lingtian, won’t he be on guard once things escalate?" the hidden person remarked.
Ye Tanzhu and Ye Sheng fell silent.
