"What, you want to go to the Heavenly Court?"
From the Mingde Hall, an angry voice came from the Hongchen family's estate.
"Grandpa, I've made up my mind, I hope you respect my choice?"
Opposite Jing Hongchen, his grandson, Xiao Hongchen, stubbornly stuck his neck out, his face full of stubbornness.
Seeing his grandson so persistent, Jing Hongchen was also a little angry. He slammed the table and stood up abruptly, pointing at Xiao Hongchen's nose and scolding, "You brainless thing, the founder of the Heavenly Court is Huo Yuhao, Poison Undying's apprentice. Not long ago, Tianhun and Douling were still trying to win over the Body Sect. If you join the Heavenly Court, what will the ministers in the court think, what will His Majesty think, and how will our Hongchen family conduct ourselves in the empire in the future?"
"And do you know that the Heavenly Court is currently in the eye of the storm, with countless eyes staring at it? Are you tired of living and squeezing into it?"
This was the first time Xiao Hongchen had seen his grandfather so angry. The angry scolding, coupled with the Title Douluo-level pressure on Jing Hongchen, shocked Xiao Hongchen into speechlessness.
It was at this moment that he realized that he had imagined things too simply.
Seeing that his grandson had been honestly taught by his words, Jing Hongchen's anger subsided slightly, and his tone softened, "Tell me, why do you want to go to the Heavenly Court? Give me a satisfactory answer, or you won't be able to get out of this door."
Hearing this, Xiao Hongchen's eyes lit up. After a brief silence, he said, "Grandpa, you went to the Heavenly Court last time, what do you think of that Huo Yuhao? I'm talking about his strength."
Jing Hongchen didn't expect his grandson to ask this question, but it also reminded him of the scene outside the Heavenly Court's Holy Hall last time when that kid Zhen killed the Title Douluo who came to provoke him.
Jing Hongchen hesitated a little, he was worried that telling the truth would greatly discourage his grandson.
Xiao Hongchen noticed his grandfather's abnormality, and could also imagine his concerns. He immediately smiled and said, "Grandpa, actually, I know even if you don't say it. The gap between me and him is too big. You're worried that I'll be discouraged, right?"
You brat, you have some self-awareness, Jing Hongchen thought to himself, but his grandson's reaction was a bit unreasonable. Jing Hongchen knew that this fool was arrogant and conceited.
To put it bluntly, that kid was arrogant and didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. The words just now didn't sound like something he could say.
No matter what, his grandson's mentality was peaceful at the moment, which was good. Jing Hongchen sighed, "I don't know what to say, that kid's cultivation is only Soul Emperor, but he gives me a feeling that I can't see through him."
After a pause, Jing Hongchen earnestly said, "Xiao, the Heavenly Court is a whirlpool, and it's within the territory of the Three Douluo Kingdoms. If you really get involved in it and something happens, even Grandpa may not be able to rescue you in time, and even if I catch up, I may not have the ability to save you."
Xiao Hongchen frowned upon hearing this, "Grandpa, are you so pessimistic about the Heavenly Court's situation? Why does it sound like the Heavenly Court will be destroyed at any time in your mouth?"
"Human nature is greedy, and the Heavenly Court has mastered something that is enough to make everyone jealous.
With this alone, the future struggle between the Heavenly Court and other forces will be inevitable, especially that Shrek. They have been sitting on the chair of the number one force in the mainland for so long, how can they be willing to watch someone step by step go to their heads and shit and piss?"
Hearing his grandfather explain the stakes, Xiao Hongchen was silent for a while. He realized that he was indeed lacking in consideration in many things.
However, he was still unwilling to give up. He looked up at Jing Hongchen, and there was no hesitation in Xiao Hongchen's eyes.
"Grandpa, I've thought it through, I still want to go to the Heavenly Court. One is influenced by one's company. What's the point of bullying a bunch of rookies here? If I can't surpass him, then I'll chase after him, even if I can never catch up."
"The platform is very important to a person. Being in the same era as someone like him is both lucky and unfortunate. Unfortunately, you will never be able to catch up with his pace.
But isn't that more interesting? There are not so many smooth sailing in life. This makes me feel the passion and gives me the motivation to strive forward."
Xiao Hongchen's eyes were burning, as if he had returned to the Soul Master Competition more than a year ago.
That sentence made him particularly clear.
Enemies defeated by me will never be regarded as opponents by me. I will give you time to catch up until you can't see me anymore.
Facts have proved that you are right. To this day, I really don't even have the qualifications to be your opponent, but so what, even if I can't catch up, I won't stand still.
These remarks stunned Jing Hongchen for a while. Was this still his unreliable grandson? Could this kid really say these words?
Looking at his grandson's firm eyes, Jing Hongchen's heart was a little shaken. A fledgling eagle also has a day to spread its wings and fly. Perhaps he should also respect his grandson's decision.
Moreover, his grandson has the courage to face difficulties, which is a good thing. He should support him.
Meng Hongchen's eyes were sparkling, and she was amazed by her brother's domineering declaration.
Jing Hongchen immediately looked at his granddaughter vigilantly, worried that this girl would follow blindly.
Seeing her grandfather's big reaction, Meng Hongchen smiled playfully, "Hehe, Grandpa, you misunderstood. I don't want to be controlled by others. I just want to go out with you guys."
...
That night, a figure quietly left Seagod Island.
Xuan Zi's eyes were resolute. This time, no matter what, he would eliminate that scourge. Regarding Huo Yuhao's growth rate, Xuan Zi felt a trace of fear in his heart. He was worried that if he allowed him to grow further, then no one would be able to do anything about that little brat.
Xuan Zi's departure went unnoticed by the elders of the Seagod Pavilion, except for one person.
Inside the Seagod Pavilion, Mu En opened his cloudy eyes and looked in the direction of Xuan Zi's departure, silently praying in his heart that Xuan Zi's actions would be smooth.
As the Pavilion Master of the Seagod Pavilion, he always prioritized the interests of the Seagod Pavilion and Shrek. How could he lack ruthless methods to get to where he is today?
He knew Xuan Zi's purpose, but he didn't have the idea of stopping him. In fact, he had the same concerns as Xuan Zi. He was also present at the Heavenly Court's founding ceremony and witnessed the terror of that child.
Not only did he not stop him, but Mu En also left a means on Xuan Zi's body, which could also help him at critical moments.
Falling Dragon Mountain, Heavenly Court, Huo Yuhao didn't know that danger was approaching, but he didn't have the heart to think so much, because an even greater crisis had already arrived at this moment.
