Chapter 5, Returning Home

Sun Ang stepped outside, raising his head to look at Sun Jie: "Come out, you who are ashamed of me. I, too, feel quite helpless about being in the same family as someone like you."

Having lost the heir, Sun Yuanhai will inevitably be unable to protect the Night Song Sword.

This swift kick sent Sun Jie tumbling through the air, flipping several times before crashing to the ground, bloodied and silent.

Sun Yue has not yet cultivated martial arts. Upon seeing her brother take action, she immediately waved her small fists to cheer him on: "Elder brother, hit him hard! He usually loves to bully me!"

Sun Jie jumped down with a thud, rubbing his fists in anticipation. Sun Ang suddenly revealed a playful expression: "Since you say I am a coward, do you dare to bet with me, this coward?"

Sun Yuanshan and others felt a sense of reassurance in their hearts

"Old Third!" A furious shout came from the main entrance as Uncle Sun Yuanshan emerged with a dark expression, hands clasped behind his back

Sun Yuanhai's waist | This treasured mount is a Second-Order Deep Shadow Leopard, which is considered a powerful existence even among Second-Order ferocious beasts

However, his wrist was still firmly grasped by Sun Ang, making escape impossible

Click!

Sun Ang glanced back at the distant Guardian Mountain, then turned around and shouted loudly, urging his horse to catch up with the others

Sun Ang's figure swayed as he approached to strike. However, upon seeing his moves, Sun Jie nearly burst into laughter: "Eighteen Scatter Hands! Hahaha!"

Cough! Sun Yuanhai cleared his throat heavily. Although he felt that his eldest son was quite right, he considered that he was, after all, a father and needed to "educate" his child. Thus, he reluctantly said, "Among relatives, it is essential to prioritize love and friendship..."

He swung his leg, and the sole of his foot traced a crescent-shaped glow of elemental energy, striking upward like a great axe and landing fiercely on Sun Jie's chin

They are all trusted confidants of the elder uncle, while the eldest elder Sun Ning, who is relatively close to Sun Yuanhai's branch, has instead gone missing.

At this moment, it was as if Sun Yuanyang, who had only spoken halfway, suddenly had his neck gripped tightly by someone. Sun Yuanshan and the others were also taken aback, how could this be possible

Why? The reason is obvious. Just look at Sun Ang, who stands behind Sun Yuanhai; he is nothing but a useless person.

Only after the deep and mysterious leopard had gained several dozen zhang in lead did they dare to start running

Upon seeing that black iron box, the servants could not help but shudder, for everyone recognized that the box contained the precious first-tier alchemical artifact, the Night Song Sword

The Five Thunder Palm surged forth with a thunderous roar, appearing unstoppable. In contrast, Sun Ang's Eighteen Scatter Hands seemed unremarkable, quietly slicing into the techniques of the Five Thunder Palm!

The powerful strike passed by Sun Ang, missing its target. However, Sun Ang's Eighteen Scatter Hands effortlessly penetrated a gap in the Five Thunder Palm. Even though the Eighteen Scatter Hands is merely a non-ranked martial art, at this moment, it became the most useful technique

As he released his grip, Sun Jie curled up into a ball, kneeling before him

Bang

With the death of Sun Ang, Sun Yue is even less of a concern

The Sun residence in Anhuai County is one of the prominent mansions, and Sun Yuanhai's deep and mysterious leopard is a symbol of it. As soon as he arrives at the entrance, a servant immediately comes forward to greet him: "Third Master, you have returned"

The dark panther let out a roar and charged forward, leaving a series of deep pits on the hard ground in its wake. The six steeds behind it were already quite majestic among the warhorses, yet they trembled in the presence of the dark panther.

From the manor to the county town, a distance of several dozen li, everyone returned in just one hour

Sun Yuanhai was furious, his eyes flashing like lightning: "Impudent! How dare you interrupt when an elder is speaking!"

He looked at Sun Ang with confusion, then glanced at Sun Yuanhai. When his gaze fell upon the black iron long box in Sun Yuanhai's hand, he suddenly realized: so that's it! It must be that Uncle San secretly lent the Night Song Sword to Sun Ang, which is why this kid dares to be so arrogant

Sun Ang once again forcefully pulled him down, twisting his body, and with a kick from below, it was as if a monstrous python had emerged from its den. Sun Jie only saw a shadow flash by, and with a whoosh, a tremendous force struck against his abdomen

In order to subdue this precious steed, Sun Yuanhai left behind nine enormous scars.

Father, allow me to take care of it

It appears that Sun Jie is using his own soft spot to collide with Sun Ang's hard knee, which is naturally akin to an egg hitting a rock

Strictly speaking, the Eighteen Scatter Hands do not belong to any rank, so this set of martial skills is two major levels below the Second Stage of the Nine Meridians, the Five Thunder Palm, and it is fundamentally impossible for it to be a match for the Five Thunder Palm

The treasure steed is captured after subduing the ferocious beast, which is of the ninth rank. The higher the rank, the more powerful it becomes, and the strength of each rank of the ferocious beast is almost equivalent to that of a human warrior of the ninth rank

Hahaha! A mix of loud and soft sounds emanated from Sun Yuanyang's mouth: "Little one, you are also a fool; your brother is bound to lose without a doubt..."

Prior to this, he had captured a total of six second-tier ferocious beasts alive. The others all chose to die rather than surrender, and ultimately, only this one was successfully captured

Sun Jie was momentarily stunned by the sudden flash of cold light in his eyes. When he regained his senses, he immediately thought, why is this kid so confident? Is he trying to deceive me? That doesn't seem likely. This is not his character.

They still believe that this waste and coward, just like before, goes back to complain when bullied, prompting his father to take revenge

Indeed, the lowest level martial art of the Anhuai Sun family is the Eighteen Scatter Hands

A palm came through the air, and under the enhancement of elemental force, Sun Jie’s palm instantly expanded to the size of a basin, with faint flashes of lightning flickering around, creating an astonishing spectacle

The three of them took out this elixir, clearly indicating that they are about to act!

"What do you want to do?" He questioned Sun Yuanhai as soon as he appeared. Behind him, his second uncle Sun Yuanyang and fourth uncle Sun Yuanxin, among others, stepped out together.

Sun Ang executed a triple strike, as swift as lightning

Sun Jie was overjoyed, as he was worried about not finding an opportunity to teach Sun Ang a lesson: "This is what you brought upon yourself! You coward, do you really think that this young master would be afraid of you!"

However, he had never seen a prodigy like his own son, who practiced at an astonishing speed.

Sun Yuanhai trembled with anger, his large hand already resting on the black iron long box. A hand reached out, gently pressing down on his father's arm

Sun Ang feigned indifference: "You have already stated that you have reached the peak of the Four Veins' power, so of course, there is always the possibility of a breakthrough at any time"

Sun Yuanhai's imposing presence surged forward, only to be halted by an overwhelming force. Sun Yuanyang let out a cold sneer: "Third brother, Jie'er speaks his mind; although it may be somewhat rude, it is nonetheless the truth. Your son Sun Ang has brought shame to the Sun family since the day he was born, and to this day, he has embarrassed us to the point that even our own family knows about this useless waste of a person we have..."

In fact, within the entire Anhuai Sun clan, there are only three precious steeds, which respectively belong to Sun Yuanhai, the clan leader Sun Yuanshan, and the elder Sun Ning.

Sun Ang sneered: "What, are you afraid now? If that's the case, you are even less than this coward of mine, so what are you? From now on, do not bark recklessly in front of this young master!"

Three guards and Uncle Guan, along with the father and son trio, only Sun Yuanhai possesses a precious steed, while the others can only ride horses

With a dull thud, Sun Ang's palm struck fiercely against Sun Jie's shoulder. The power of the Five Meridians erupted, and Sun Jie felt as if his shoulder had been struck by a giant bear. With a crack, his bones shattered completely, leaving half of his body instantly immobilized

Above the dark sea, the martial arts are divided into nine realms, with the lowest level being the Life Origin Realm. The subsequent realms are the Life Spirit Realm, Life Prison Realm, Life Lamp Realm, Life Bridge Realm, Life Profound Realm, Life Transmigration Realm, Life Extreme Realm, and Life Heaven Realm

However, considering that his son is now at the realm of the Five Veins Power, he forcibly suppressed his impulse to act and anxiously watched.

The events that took place at the manor were regarded by Sun Sheng as a great humiliation, and naturally, he would not take the initiative to publicize them; thus, the vast majority of people in the household remained unaware.

However, the fact is that Sun Ang, with his unranked Eighteen Scatter Hands, was able to break Sun Jie’s second-tier martial art, the Five Thunder Palm, in a single move

Sun Jie was furious, vigorously channeling his vital energy, with an even greater urgency to smash Sun Ang into a pulp with a single palm strike

However, this seemingly flawless Five Thunder Palm, in his own view, was met with a disdainful shake of the head from Sun Ang: "Full of flaws!"

Sun Yuanhai dismounted from his steed, but with a dark expression, he removed a long box that was strapped to the rear of the deep black leopard.

On the other side, Sun Yuanhai was momentarily taken aback, already unable to restrain himself from making a move, the Eighteen Scatter Hands... It was simply too rudimentary. Even from Sun Yuanhai's perspective, it was absolutely impossible to defeat the Second Tier Martial Skill, the Five Thunder Palm

It now seems that waste will always be waste, and a salted fish can never turn over. Yesterday, it is likely that Sun Sheng was too careless.

The Five Thunder Palm is a high-level martial art taught by the Sun family of Anhuai to their disciples, far surpassing the Eighteen Loose Hands. It is already a second-tier martial skill within the Nine Meridians realm, and it is no less impressive than the Fire Bull Cannon Fist

Five Thunder Palm, Break!

Sun Ang certainly noticed the gazes of those servants, and he secretly scoffed, yet there was no need for him to explain himself to these people

His internal organs suddenly exploded and he let out a miserable scream, curling up like a shrimp in pain

In fact, even in the past, Sun Ang rarely complained; it was always Sun Yuanhai who discovered that his son had been bullied and could not help but seek revenge

Sun Ang secretly curled his lip, thinking that the original owner was once friendly, but in the end, he nearly got killed by those so-called relatives

The next morning, Sun Yuanhai looked at his eldest son as if he were a monster. He was well-read and experienced, having even represented the family in several missions in Weiyuan County.

Sun Yuanhai also noticed that his eldest son was not taking it to heart. He did not mind and waved his hand, saying, "Let's go, return home"

He wore a long black robe, with a blazing flame embroidered in gold thread on his chest. His robust figure exuded the authority of a family head

"Last night you were still at the peak of the Four Veins Power, how did you suddenly reach the realm of the Five Veins Power overnight?"

He let out a scream and retreated repeatedly, but unexpectedly, Sun Ang's palm changed in a strange manner, still employing the Eighteen Dispersed Hands technique, effortlessly grasping his wrist. With a sudden pull, he yanked him back, while at the same time, his knee seemed to rise casually.

Sun Jie is one year older than Sun Ang. Previously, due to intense competition, he was unable to enter the ancestral land. However, his father, Sun Yuanyang, is a trusted confidant of the family head, Sun Yuanshan. Additionally, since Sun Ke is reputed to be the foremost genius among the disciples of the Anhuai Sun clan in this generation, Sun Yuanshan has shown considerable favor towards their family, which is why he made an exception to impart knowledge to them

Upon hearing his brother's words, Sun Ang's pupils flickered with a trace of dark flame, and the power in his hand increased by three points

But everyone knows that it is impossible

However, a second-tier violent beast is equivalent to a powerful being in the human race's Fate Spirit Realm, which greatly aids Sun Yuanhai—Treasure Knights are also an important component of his combat strength

The confrontation between the two this time appeared exceedingly strange, as if Sun Jie had deliberately left the goal wide open, allowing Sun Ang to seize the opportunity with a single move.

Sun Jie gave his father Sun Yuanyang a glance, and Sun Yuanyang subtly nodded, indicating that he would support him.

Hehe, fortunately, this young master is clever and will not fall for your tricks

Yesterday, Sun Sheng returned in defeat, causing everyone to feel uneasy. They wondered if Sun Ang had experienced some extraordinary event that suddenly increased his strength.

Sun Ang felt a pang in his heart and couldn't help but pat his younger brother's head: "Rest assured, from now on, your elder brother will protect you. If anyone dares to bully you, just come to me, and I guarantee I will make them unrecognizable to their parents"

With the covert support of his father, Sun Jie suddenly erupted with a fierce smile, utilizing his extraordinary speed to charge towards Sun Ang: "Fool! Today, I will make you understand that a waste will always be a waste!"

Once Sun Ang is dead, great matters can be accomplished

In the stage of the Nine Veins Realm, it is essential to solidify the foundation of the body in order to further cultivate the true martial arts

But how could this kid be so confident? According to what that guy Sun Sheng privately told me yesterday, this kid is only at the initial stage of the Four Veins of Power, while I am at the intermediate stage of the Five Veins of Power. There is no way he could be my opponent.

Sun Ang declared resolutely: "I bet my life! If I lose this match, I will commit suicide on the spot! Likewise, if you lose, you will dash your head against the stone tablet at the entrance and die. Do you dare to accept?"

Sun Jie has been training hard for more than six months, never showcasing his skills in public. Now, he suddenly emerges to catch Sun Ang off guard, aiming to resolve this embarrassing waste in a single move

Not only is it difficult to capture alive, but even if captured alive, they often will not be subdued

Sun Ang tilted his head and said, "Oh, this posture is quite suitable for another kick."

"What are you betting on!" Sun Jie appeared completely unafraid.

The sound of the rib fracture was very clear, as Sun Ang's vital energy erupted at the knee, propelling Sun Jie upward with tremendous force, sending him flying into the air.

Sun Yue clearly does not have as much thoughtfulness as his father. His elder brother is making rapid progress, and he is very happy, waving his little fist: "Elder brother is truly amazing! If you had been like this before, I wouldn't have been bullied by them."

Sun Yuanyang looked at the two people in the battle group with a teasing expression, unable to help but stroke his beard lightly, and insincerely remarked: "Alas, my son Jie is indeed victorious without merit; his opponent is simply too weak. After entering the ancestral land for six months, he has not even learned a single martial skill of any rank."

Sun Yuanhai let out a cold laugh: "What do I want to do? Big brother, I would like to ask, is Sun Ang your nephew, is he not one of our Anhuai Sun family?"

Sun Jie shouted from behind Sun Yuanyang: "It is best if Sun Ang is not from the Anhuai Sun family; having such a useless person in any household brings misfortune. Unfortunately, we have no choice; he is still one of us."

At present, Sun Ang is in the Nine Veins Realm, which is essentially just a preparatory stage; disciples of this kind cannot even be regarded as true martial artists
