Chapter 35: Shackles (Part 2) (Fourth Update)

  "Have you thought it through?" Yi Ba Tian said tightly, staring at Yi Chi.

  Yi Chi smiled and nodded slightly.

  "Old man, isn't this the best outcome? At least I'm still alive, and having multiple Nine Star Dou Ling in the family isn't bad either, heh." Yi Chi said with a slightly bitter smile.

  He can't be too calm now, after all, the original owner of this body is only fifteen years old, to be exact, his fifteenth birthday hasn't arrived yet.

  Since you're still a kid, you should look like one. Even if you're mature, don't show it too much or people will suspect something.

  "It's also, ah, Yi Jia owes you an apology! If only we were a bit stronger..." Yi Ba Tian sighed.

  After all the hardships to protect the genius, it was not protected. Although there will still be some achievements, but the Yi family is not lacking in talented people. As long as Yi Chi is banned this time, then his life will be like this. Thinking of this, Yi Ba Tian couldn't help but sigh again.

  "Yi Lao Gui, you should be happy instead. If you had saved him today, hehe, I guarantee that he won't live past tomorrow. You know, our Piao Yu Castle isn't just dominated by our four families." As he said this, Lu He pointed in a certain direction.

  "This... Ah, it seems that this is indeed the best outcome!" It seemed like he had thought of something, and Yi Batian also looked enlightened.

  Yi Chi looked in the direction pointed by Lu He.

  "There? It should be the center of Huīyǔ Castle, so to speak, they are referring to the Lord's Manor." Yì Chí looked in that direction with a thoughtful expression.

  "It's also true that an empire can't tolerate unstable factors outside of its control. Fortunately, I managed to save my skin this time. It seems that in the future, before having strong power, it's better to keep a low profile. After all, one can't fight against these towering giants that have stood for tens of thousands of years!"

  This time he was lucky, just as Yi Ba Tian proposed this sealing proposal, and coincidentally Mu Yin Zhu had a ninth-level magic scroll, Great Sealing Technique. Otherwise, it's estimated that he would have been killed by the people sent by the City Master's Mansion tonight.

  After all, this is a first-class city of the Xiang Tian Empire. Those who sit here are all members of the royal family and are completely loyal to the emperor, acting solely in the interests of the empire. If it were some other small city with a noble as its lord, then Yi Chi wouldn't have had to worry at all - the lord would be eager to curry favor with him.

  Of course, it's not that the empire knows where there are geniuses and goes to destroy them. It's just that Yi Chi is not a commoner, nor is he the son of a noble family. He's just the son of a local family. People like him, even if the empire wants to recruit them, are afraid of being betrayed. After all, the sons of local families are raised from childhood with the idea that their family's interests come first, and it's hard for them to truly serve the empire. It's better to just destroy them directly.

  "Now that it's been decided, let's get started." Mu Yin Zhu saw that everyone didn't object and Yi Chi himself also agreed, so he took the scroll and walked to Yi Chi's front.

  Others who saw it retreated silently, their hearts filled with fear of this kind of sealing magic, making them involuntarily want to get away from it, which was a normal human reaction.

  Mo Yin Zhu looked at Yi Chi with a fixed gaze after which she tore open the magic scroll.

  After the scroll was torn open, the bamboo of Yu Yin quickly moved away from Yi Chi. The whole scene was watched by Yi Chi with a look of disdain.

  Only to see that the scroll was still floating in front of Yi Chi after Mu Yin Zhu let go, a strange light emanated from the scroll, and those lights kept circling around Yi Chi's body. After a burst of intense light, when Yi Chi opened his eyes again, the scroll in front of him had disappeared, leaving only the nine-colored lights that continued to rotate around his body.

  Those rays of light seemed to be pulled, and on the top of Yi Chi's head, they formed strange characters that Yi Chi didn't recognize at all. However, he seemed to understand their meaning, which was the incantation of the Great Forbidden Spirit Technique.

  Those characters that gathered together formed a straight line in the sky, and in Yi Chi's astonished eyes, they suddenly rushed down towards him.

  Yi Chi only felt a dizziness in his head, and it seemed that there was something extra in his body. This feeling only flashed by, and almost in the next instant, Yi Chi didn't have this feeling anymore, just like everything before was an illusion. However, Yi Chi knew that the extra thing should be the sealing power of the Great Forbidden Spirit Technique.

  As long as this sealing power remains in Yichi's body, he will never be able to cultivate to the level of Douwang. Of course, there are some people who can't even cultivate to that level their whole lives, but Yichi is clearly not one of them.

  But will Yi Chi care about this sealing power?

  "This is 500,000 energy points! What a waste!! But it's okay, at least using them to buy a life is still pretty cheap. Yi Chi felt a pang of heartache, but then thought that if he wasn't sealed away, the alternative would be death after all, and so he let it go."

  After Yi Chi was locked up, the other three also considered their mission accomplished for today. After bidding farewell to Yi Ba Tian and others, they all left.

  Yi Chi watched these people leave, feeling very calm in his heart.

  "Hehe, everything today will eventually be paid back with interest, hehe, just you wait." He thought to himself silently, but on the surface, Yi Chi still maintained a frightened expression.

  "Yi Chi, you... Ah, never mind, maybe this is the best outcome after all. Be optimistic, at least you're still alive, aren't you? Go back, and consider this matter settled." Yi Yun looked at Yi Chi who was still standing there, went up to comfort him for a few sentences, then silently left. Yi Ba Tian also took a glance at Yi Chi, shook his head and left as well.

  "Disappointed? Hehe, you'll have your surprises." Yi Chi didn't care about what others thought of him, after all, some things weren't meant to be known by others, not even his own father.

  Looking at the Yi family members who were dispersing and whispering to each other, Yi Chi sneered inwardly and stopped paying attention to them. He turned around and was about to leave, returning to his own little world.

  "Little brother."

  Who else would call him at this time?

  Turning around, it was her four brothers, and she coldly laughed.

  "Are you here to humiliate me? Humph, whatever." Yi Chi didn't stop and continued walking with an air of indifference.

  Several figures had crossed Yi Chi and were now standing in front of him.

  "What's up, something happened?" he said lightly, looking at the four people with an indifferent expression.

  "Now it's quite united!" With a disdainful glance at the four of them, Yi Chi thought he'd see what they were up to.

  "Hehe, Fifth Brother, why must you be like this? In the past, you weren't someone who couldn't cultivate and was a waste. At least now you're better than before, aren't you?" The four of them looked at Yi Chi with disdain, ridiculed him for a moment, then burst out laughing.

  "Is it funny? If there's nothing else, I'll be going back." Yi Chi was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold himself back and fight with them. If that happened, he would probably get into trouble again. To be honest, Yi Chi wasn't afraid of them. After all, he had already become a one-star Dou Shi. With the power of the variant Dark Fruit, even if he were to face off against the strongest Yi Xing, he wouldn't be intimidated. However, now was exactly the time for him to keep a low profile. Perhaps there were already experts watching him right now. He absolutely couldn't reveal that strength that didn't match his cultivation.

  The consequences of being exposed are absolutely more terrifying than one's own talent, and at that time, one will absolutely not be able to save their own life. To indulge in a momentary pleasure and lose one's life is absolutely not the result that Yi Chi wants.

  "Halt!" Seeing Yi Chi being so dismissive of them, Yi Xing suddenly flew into a rage.

  He pointed at Yi Chi's nose, looking at him with extreme arrogance: "You little bastard, who do you think you are? Let me tell you, in the entire Yi family, except for our ancestors and father, I am the greatest. You actually dare to ignore me? Do you think you will still be valued by the family now? You're just a waste of space, remember! You, are, nothing, but, trash!!"

  One word at a time, Yi Hang's mood seemed to have improved a lot. Yi Chi just lowered his head, he had to endure now, if he resisted, there was only one outcome, death.

  He didn't want to die, he had barely managed to cross over into this world, he couldn't afford to die, if he wanted to become a superior being, for now he could only endure.

  Clutching his fists tightly, Yi Chi repeatedly wanted to resist, but he endured it all.

  He wasn't without opportunity, but it wasn't now. On the surface, he was just a one-star master, and he absolutely couldn't reveal his super strong fighting power.

  "But if you're going to take advantage of me, that's a different story." Yi Chi's eyes flashed with a fierce glint, and his tightly clenched fists struck Yi Hang's face with lightning speed.

  Regardless of whether he had injured Yi Hang, Yi Chi hastily activated 'Catching the Wind and Seizing the Shadow', almost instantly appearing one hundred meters away.

  "It's easy, don't think I'm a pushover. Today's humiliation will be avenged tomorrow!" He turned around and shouted loudly, successfully attracting the attention of a large crowd. Yip Chi also didn't linger, flashing his body several times before disappearing from everyone's sight.

  "Bastard! Yi Chi, I'm going to make you die a terrible death!!!" Yi Xing, who had been punched in the nose, was now covering his nose with his hand, and blood was dripping from between his fingers. Obviously, Yi Chi's punch had landed squarely on his nose.

  "Big brother! There are many people watching around." Yi Lun hastily pulled back Yi Hang, who still wanted to chase after Yi Chi, and whispered in his ear.

  Looking around, there were indeed many people staring at him and his group. Yi Hang was not a fool either, he knew he had fallen into Yi Chi's trap. With Yi Chi's parting words earlier, combined with his own hasty remarks, it would definitely reach his father's ears. If he continued to pursue the matter, he could forget about competing for the position of family head.

  Yi Xing secretly vowed to take Yi Chi's life and hastily left the place of right and wrong with Yi Yun.

  Yi Feng and Yi Ming, who were originally at odds with each other, saw the two leave and sneered.
