Chapter Thirty-Eight Curtain Falls

  "Haha, the old master is going to use his Three-Part Return to Origin Technique! With this move, victory is assured."

  "That's right, now look at the master of the house, it's time to launch a fierce attack too. Hmph, you dogs from the Wei family, die!"

  "Charge! All Ye family sons, the chance for counterattack has arrived."

  ……

  The numb Ye family members, as if they had grasped a lifesaving straw at the moment of falling into the water, became excited and enthusiastic again. For a while, they even regained their momentum.

  Ye Xiao Tian's body was rapidly shrinking, like a withered leaf, his face turned pale, but the aura around him became increasingly terrifying. Wei Hong stood not far away and did not rashly attack, if he rushed up now, he would likely be directly blown away by Ye Xiao Tian's outer shield.

  It was waiting, waiting for an opportunity. Wei Hong's eyes showed a hint of confidence. If Ye Xiao Tian continued to entangle and fight with Wei Hong, then the one who would definitely lose would be Wei Hong. After all, the difference in their realms was too great.

  However, Ye Xiao Tian had lost his rationality due to anger and was preparing a move to end the fight directly. At this time, Wei Hong revealed a hint of cold smile in his heart, thinking that he could also end the fight with just one move.

  Only Ye Xi Tian suddenly opened his eyes, flashing a sharp light, although his appearance was more terrifying, but the corners of his mouth revealed a cold smile.

  "Little brat, go die!" Ye Xiao Tian growled, and then his hands transformed into a sphere of martial energy with a hint of destructive aura, which he fiercely launched at Wei Hong.

  "It's now." Wei Hong stomped his foot on the ground and unleashed his Lingbo Step to its limits, shouting "Go!"

  At the same time, he quickly retreated backwards, and as he ran, he actually created an afterimage, and at this moment, Ye Xiao Tian's attack was also fiercely aimed at Wei Hong.

  "Haha, it seems that the elder will win this time."

  In the crowd, everyone in the Ye family showed a hint of excitement and enthusiasm.

  Wei Tiannan and Sun Boren also discovered it, but they were now tightly entwined with Ye Feng, completely unable to intervene.

  "Haha, now you Wei family will lose another genius, this feeling is unbearable, right!" Ye Feng was already seriously injured at this time, with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, but he was laughing wildly.

  "Looking for death." Wei Tian Nan coldly snorted, his attack becoming even more fierce.

  "Boom!"

  Ye Xiao Tian's full-force strike destroyed most of the Ye family's buildings, causing massive casualties and sending dust flying everywhere.

  The Sanfen Guiyuan Gong created an explosive force that did not end with a single blow. Just as the first explosion ended and was about to return to calm, the second wave of explosions erupted again, flattening the area where Wei Hong was located.

  Everyone stopped fighting and looked in Wei Hong's direction, even Wei Tian Nan and Ye Feng were looking this way. As the dust dissipated, they finally saw clearly.

  "Cough, cough." Only one person came out, covered in dust and dirt, with tattered clothes, but surprisingly, without serious injury.

  It was not someone else, but Wei Hong. As he looked at the other side, Ye Xiao Tian didn't move, and then with a loud crash, he heavily fell to the ground.

  "How is it possible?"

  Ye Feng looked at this situation, lost his voice and said, a fourth-grade warrior's little son actually directly killed a ninth-grade warrior, this is unscientific, Ye Feng was completely shocked.

  "Haha, you can rest in peace now." Taking advantage of Ye Feng's momentary distraction, Wei Tian Nan burst into a loud laughter and joined forces with Sun Bo to unleash their full strength, instantly turning Ye Feng into mush.

  With Ye Feng and Ye Xiao Tian's death, the Ye family no longer had any will to fight, completely reversing the situation, while Wei Tian Nan also arrived at Wei Hong's side.

  "Haha, good kid, well done." Wei Tian Nan heavily patted Wei Hong and said with a smile.

  "Cough, cough." Wei Hong was patted by Wei Tian Nan and started coughing violently. It wasn't a minor issue, to say the least. If Ling Bo hadn't practiced his skills to the intermediate level himself, this time... it's likely that things would have ended here.

  "Alright, you can go back now, we don't need you here anymore." Wei Tian Nan said with a hint of concern as he looked at Wei Hong.

  Wei Hong took a glance at the nearly concluded battlefield, and without being polite, he directly gave Wei Tian Nan a slight bow before quickly leaving. As he watched Wei Hong leave, Wei Tian Nan's face turned cold once again.

  "All the people of Ye's family, regardless of old or young, not a single blade of grass will be left." Wei Tian Nan said in a deep voice. As soon as his words fell, the Ye family instantly turned into a slaughterhouse.

  For a full three hours, at this time, some of the Wei family youths suddenly started vomiting, many of the youths were killing people for the first time, and they had killed so many.

  Wei Tiannan waved his hand and everyone left. As the crowd dispersed, Wei Tiannan directly threw a fireball, and a big fire broke out.

  ……

  Everyone did not expect that the Wei family, after being low-key for a month, would make such a strong comeback. The big fire at Ye's house burned for three days and three nights, and the people of Songlin Town naturally had another topic to talk about.

  At this time, in the Wei family, the martial arts arena was filled with joy.

  Today is the day of rewarding achievements and conveniently releasing the ranking results of the Grand Competition, everyone arrived early at the martial arts arena.

  "Wei Tian, how many people did you kill yesterday?" a thin and weak young man asked in a low voice among the crowd.

  "Not many, just a dozen or so." The unassuming young man in green clothes said lightly.

  "Not many, I've only killed five." The frail young man said with a hint of envy.

  "Haha, I killed thirty of them. Alas, the Ye family is really too weak." A loud voice rang out, and it turned out that Wei Wuyou had arrived.

  "Hmph, I've killed thirty too." Wei Song said in a low voice from the other side.

  …

  Under the stage, all sorts of discussions started, and so-called "numbers" were set at that time. Wei Tian Nan had established a rule: for every person killed, he would cut off his little finger, which would naturally be verified on the spot later, making it impossible to fake.

  Wei Tiannan sat in the first position, slightly pressed his hand, and then said: "From today on, Songlin Town will only have my Wei family as the sole leader. Although we will have more resources in the future, this also means that we will receive more attention and challenges from others."

  Wei Tian Nan's expression turned slightly solemn as he continued: "Now, let's first discuss the candidates for the positions of Elder and Executor."

  As Wei Tian Nan spoke, the elder stood up and promoted several of the Wei family's younger generation who had performed relatively well this time. After all, they were already middle-aged, and their potential had long been exhausted.

  With the confirmation of elders and deacons, next is the ranking of the Great Comparison.

  The top ten of the Wei family's competition were actually selected, with the top three having the qualification to go to the main house of the Wei family for further cultivation, while the fourth to tenth places had their own rewards.

  Finally, Wei Hong deservedly took first place, while Wei Ning unexpectedly came in second, Wei Wuyou third, and Wei Hong's older brother Wei Song fourth. Fifth place went to a one-armed youth named Wei Niu, whom Wei Hong had never seen before. The other places were also taken by some of the better-performing young men from the Wei family.

  After the ranking was announced, Wei Tian Nan spoke again: "Wei Hong, you are now the first place in the Grand Competition, so you will have the qualification to automatically become the next head of the Wei family. Now I ask you, are you willing?"

  Wei Hong glanced at Wei Tian Nan with a faint gaze and said in a low voice: "Unwilling."

  As soon as Wei Hong's voice fell, the audience erupted into a flurry of discussion. However, Wei Tian Nan did not seem surprised and continued to say: "In that case, according to past conventions, you can nominate any one of the Wei family children to be the next head of the household, and we will put your nomination to a vote."

  As soon as Wei Tian Nan's voice fell, Wei Song looked at Wei Hong with a slightly tense expression. Although he had obtained Wei Hong's guarantee last night, he still had some worries.

  "I propose Wei Song." Wei Hong said without hesitation.

  Finally, Wei Tiannan didn't even consider it and directly made a decision to let Wei Song be the next head of the family, which also counts as indirectly showing favor to Wei Hong.

  The grand comparison came to an end, and with its conclusion, the Ye family's downfall was sealed. The Wei family also became more powerful as a result. However, these matters were of little concern to Wei Hong. At this moment, he had been summoned by Wei Tian Nan to the forbidden land.
