"He's back. Yang Xiao is actually back."
On the grand tournant grounds of the Inner Mansion.
When Yang Xiao leisurely appeared before the crowd, the Inner Sect disciples were one thing, but the high-ranking Sect officials on the platform were utterly dumbfounded.
What was going on?
Yang Xiao had actually returned.
'Didn't the Supre Elder make a move against him?'
"Xiao'Er, you're back."
Only Yang Zhentian was smiling.
Although Yang Xiao had sent him a transmission saying everything would be fine, how could he not have been worried?
Now, Xiao'Er was back.
He could finally put his mind at ease.
"That's right, Father. From now on, I am the Junior Sect Leader of the Purple Sun Sect! Haha! Yang Ying, Yang Biao, Yun'Er, in a bit, you'll co with to the Pill Treasure Hall. Take whatever you like."
Yang Xiao declared, smug and triumphant.
Yang Ying and the others were thrilled and astonished.
They never imagined that their Young Master had truly beco the Junior Sect Leader of the Purple Sun Sect.
This was the Junior Sect Leader of the Purple Sun Sect, after all.
The future Sect Leader.
Such status.
It was second only to the Sect Leader and the Supre Elders.
"Hmph. A petty man enjoying his day."
Just then, a sarcastic voice cut through from the high platform.
It was Yann Xu.
Yann Xu had originally been too intimidated by Yang Zhentian's might to say a word.
But now, seeing Yang Xiao's arrogant and triumphant expression, an inexplicable irritation surged within him, and the words just slipped out.
Instantly, Yang Xiao's gaze shot toward him.
'This guy targeted several tis already.'
'I haven't even had the chance to settle the score with him yet.'
'And now he dares to mock .'
With a flicker of movent, Yang Xiao appeared before him.
"You... what do you think you're doing?"
Yann Xu was startled.
The mory of Yang Xiao killing Ye Lingtian with a single punch flashed involuntarily through his mind, and his heart trembled.
"What is the cri for insubordination and insulting the Junior Sect Leader?"
Yang Xiao said faintly.
All the high-ranking officials on the platform, even Ruan Tianyang, who was at the Peak of the Martial Grandmaster Second Layer, felt an involuntary pressure build in their hearts.
Before them was clearly just a youth.
No aura emanated from his body.
And yet, he gave them—Martial Arts Powerhouses who were at least at the Innate Peak, with most being at the Martial Grandmaster First Layer—an imnse sense of oppression.
It was as if they weren't facing a youth in the Innate Realm, but the cub of an Ancient Fierce Beast.
"For insubordination and insulting the Junior Sect Leader, the punishnt is to have one's cultivation crippled and be imprisoned in the Earth Pool Abyss for all eternity, never to be released."
Just as the Elders on the high platform were unsure how to respond, a voice called out from the distance.
It was Lin Nantian.
Although Lin Nantian had been thoroughly humiliated by Yang Xiao on Celestial Yang Peak...
It had been a great sha.
However, he was a Sect Leader, after all.
His skin was very thick.
Moreover, Yang Xiao's Junior Sect Leader Position needed his confirmation.
Naturally, he couldn't hide on Celestial Yang Peak and refuse to see anyone like Ye Dongcheng.
Instead, he had followed them out shortly after.
Therefore, he had heard what Yang Xiao said earlier.
And without hesitation, he had just pronounced Yann Xu's death sentence.
'What a joke.'
'This kid defeated even Supre Elder Ye Dongcheng.'
'And this idiot Yann Xu still dared to provoke him.'
'Even if he is my martial brother...'
Lin Nantian had to punish him, and punish him severely.
"Senior Brother Nantian—no, Sect Leader, you can't do this to !"
Yann Xu was dumbstruck.
He never, ever imagined that Lin Nantian would hand down such a heavy punishnt for a single sentence.
This... this was simply beyond his comprehension.
"Where is Ye Zongling, Chief of the Law Enforcent Hall?"
But Lin Nantian ignored him.
Instead, he shouted toward the high platform.
Ye Zongling did not appear.
In fact, he hadn't shown his face in half a year.
Lin Nantian was well aware of this, of course.
He was giving Ye Zongling a chance.
Unfortunately, Ye Zongling was never going to co out.
But Lin Nantian did not know that.
Even Yang Xiao did not know.
However, after calling out three tis, Lin Nantian said, "Ye Zongling has ignored my command. I hereby announce that he is stripped of his position as Chief of the Law Enforcent Hall. The position will be concurrently held by Honored Guest Chief Elder Yang Zhentian, who will be fully responsible for all matters of the Sect's rules and regulations. What do you all think?"
The mont he said this,
the Sect's upper echelons on the high platform were stunned.
'He's seizing power from the Ye Family and siding completely with the Yang Family!'
The Law Enforcent Hall and the Dharma Transmission Hall were the most important of the Purple Sun Sect's six great halls. In fact, the Law Enforcent Hall had historically held precedence over the Dharma Transmission Hall.
It was only because Ye Zongling's strength was far inferior to Ruan Tianyang of the Dharma Transmission Hall that people had gotten the impression in recent years that the Dharma Transmission Hall was more powerful.
But now, with Yang Zhentian entering the Law Enforcent Hall...
with his power, he would surely make the Law Enforcent Hall the most formidable hall in the Purple Sun Sect.
By then, if he decided to make trouble for them, the entire Purple Sun Sect would likely beco the personal fiefdom of the Yang father and son.
The Junior Sect Leader.
The Chief of the Law Enforcent Hall.
At the sa ti, if Yang Zhentian truly beca the Chief of the Law Enforcent Hall, he would have to join the Elder Council.
With his strength, even Ruan Tianyang would have to yield the position of Great Elder.
After that...
Wouldn't everyone have to watch their backs?
The Elders who had been close to the Ye Family, in particular, felt a chill run down their spines.
Yet, surprisingly, not a single person stood up to stop it.
They simply remained silent.
They did not dare to object.
Because Yang Zhentian's power was too imnse.
"Since no one has any objections, so it shall be. Sect Leader Yang, regarding Yann Xu, would you like to deal with him personally, or shall I handle it on your behalf?"
Lin Nantian looked at Yang Zhentian with a smile.
His tone wasn't that of a Sect Leader giving an order, but more like he was consulting him, trying to curry favor.
"The Sect Leader can handle this matter."
Yang Zhentian didn't speak, but Yang Xiao did.
He was very satisfied with how well Lin Nantian understood the situation.
Besides, he had no interest in dealing with Yann Xu directly.
He was just a dog.
He used to be Wang Qianhe's dog.
Now he was Ye Lingtian's dog.
Yang Xiao had no desire to dirty his own hands on a dog.
But when Lin Nantian heard his words, his heart jolted.
He thought Yang Xiao was still dissatisfied and wanted to see how he would perform.
Imdiately, he ascended the high platform.
He struck out with his palm and crippled Yann Xu.
"Se-Senior Brother!"
The speed and ruthlessness of the attack left even Yann Xu, who knew he was finished, in a state of disbelief.
He couldn't believe his own martial brother would actually do this to him.
He had thought Lin Nantian was just putting on a show for the Yang father and son.
But now he knew.
It was real.
It was real!
"I hate this! I hate myself! Why did I have to offend the Yang Family!"
He roared in his heart.
But regret was useless now.
His cultivation was crippled.
He was a cripple.
Like a puddle of mud.
Then, on Lin Nantian's orders, he was taken away and thrown into the sunless depths of the Earth Pool Abyss.
For all eternity, he would never see the light of day again.
Seeing Yann Xu's fate, the others dared not say a word.
Their gazes toward the Yang father and son were now tinged with sycophancy.
By this point, how could they not understand what had happened?
The sky had changed over the Purple Sun Sect.
The Yang Family was now the true master.
And they were all just dogs.
Even Ruan Tianyang.
He too felt this way in his heart.
He didn't dare to oppose the Yang Family.
"Alright, that's settled. Father, let's go."
With that one faint remark, Yang Xiao left with the mbers of the Yang Family.
This ti, they had been forced to co by the Ye Family.
At that ti, everyone thought they were dood to a miserable death.
But now...
it was the Ye Family that had t a miserable end.
And the Yang Family had beco the new Dominators of the Purple Sun Sect.
