In the life of Fang Yu.

There are three men who have been crucially influential to him.

One is his biological father,

his biological father from the Lu Family, Lu Tianxing.

The second is his adoptive father, Fang Jintian.

If it weren't for Fang Jintian, he wouldn't have survived after being expelled from the Lu Family back then.

The third is his master, Fang Ju.

When the Fang Family got into trouble... Fang Ju took him and escaped into the old woods. Afterwards, cultivating the Divine Dragon Technique, he embarked on the journey home.

...

It all seems just like yesterday.

Recalling it leaves nothing but sighs.

...

Meanwhile.

In the Yanjing Imperial City, Xue Family.

Xue Feng, who was sitting cross-legged and cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes.

His lips trembled, his eyes reddened—

"Who dared to disturb my Xue Family's ancestral grave! Who is so bold?"

There are arrays set up around the ancestral grave.

There's also a dedicated Tomb Guardian.

Knowing it's the Xue Family's ancestral grave, yet someone dares to disturb it.

How bold must this person be?

Bam!

Xue Feng slammed his hand, splitting the table.

"Someone come!"

"Here!"

A voice came from outside the door.

"All Xue Family cultivators above the Great Heavenly Position, mobilize! Whoever destroyed our Xue Family's ancestral grave, must be cut to pieces!"

"Yes!"

This news quickly spread through the entire Xue Family.

Throughout the Xue Family, there are at least twenty or thirty cultivators who have reached the Great Heavenly Position.

Encountering such a matter of ancestral grave disturbance, how can they not be angry?

In no time, everyone gathered at Xue Feng's residence.

Within an hour.

The old steward reported to Xue Feng:

"Master, all Xue Family cultivators above the Great Heavenly Position have assembled, just waiting for your order! We can set off at once."

Xue Feng suddenly opened his eyes.

Said, "Good!"

Xue Feng's face was full of anger and hatred.

To disturb someone's ancestral grave is an irreconcilable feud.

No matter the time, disturbing an ancestral grave is an unforgivable crime!

In the courtyard.

The moment Xue Feng appeared.

All Xue Family disciples saluted simultaneously.

Xue Feng slightly raised his hand, loudly saying, "I sensed that our Xue Family's ancestral grave was dug up... the person behind this is outrageously bold... I called you here to take this opportunity to tell you that our Xue Family fears no one, and whoever steps on our Xue Family, I will step back on them."

Hearing that the ancestral grave was disturbed,

how can these young juniors remain calm?

Immediately, three or five people stepped out, faces full of anger.

"Xue Master, who is bold enough to touch our Xue Family's ancestral grave? Outrageous!"

"To disturb the ancestral grave is like insulting one's parents! Today, we must cut them to pieces!"

"Yes, no matter who, they must be cut to pieces."

"It's too infuriating!"

The young people chimed in one after another.

The courtyard was in uproar.

The crowd was indignant.

Xue Feng raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, and said, "Quiet..."

All the young descendants of the Xue Family shut their mouths.

But just as Xue Feng was about to say something—

A figure flew in from the sky, swift and fast as the wind.

Everyone couldn't help but look over in surprise.

To fly in the sky, a cultivator must either be breaking the law or have a pass as a great master.

The Xue Family people straightened their postures.

Moments later.

The figure landed squarely in the Xue Family's courtyard.

...

"Who is Xue Feng?"

Zhang Xiaoya asked as soon as she landed, her gaze sweeping around.

The Xue Family members were taken aback.

They looked at this woman in puzzlement.

She seems familiar, yet they don't recognize her at all.

Who is she?

Xue Feng maintained a calm expression and asked, "May I ask who you are?"

Zhang Xiaoya said indifferently:

"I'm a student of Teacher Tan, Zhang Xiaoya."

Everyone looked at each other in dismay.

Teacher Tan? In the Imperial City, among those surnamed Tan who can be called 'Teacher,' it's none other than the ruler of the Cultivator World.

Xue Feng furrowed his brows slightly.

"So, you're a disciple of Mr. Tan... I am the Sect Leader of the Xue Family, Xue Feng. May I ask what brings you here?"

Zhang Xiaoya somewhat impatiently, for Emperor Yu is getting angry at the grave, she doesn't have time to waste words with these people.

So she got straight to the point and said:

"Xue Feng, you have one night to prepare, bring your entire Xue Family, and tomorrow morning, go to Teacher Tan to apologize."

"Apologize?" Xue Feng was momentarily stunned.

"Yes, apologize."

Xue Feng looked baffled and said, "Xue Feng has never done anything guilty, and Mr. Tan is a person who can discern right from wrong. I respect him very much, and so does the entire Xue Family. Why should the Xue Family apologize? What is our crime?"

Zhang Xiaoya shook her head and said:

"I'm not sure what your crime is... I just know you've offended Mr. Fang..."

"Mr. Fang?"

"Tiandu Mountain, Emperor Yu."

"..."

"..."

"..."

The entire place fell silent.

The weight of those five words was too heavy.

Enough to plunge the entire Xue Family into silence.

Who is the Emperor Yu of Tiandu Mountain? A person revered by the entire Cultivator World.

The Xue Family is among those who revere him.

He's a heroic legendary figure, the Xue Family has always regarded him as a model, and many young descendants of the Xue Family idolize him.

It's just...

The Xue Family has always followed the principle of not provoking others unless provoked, when did they offend Emperor Yu?

In a mere instant, all the Xue Family disciples were speechless.

They began to panic.

All the previous anger and passion seemed to have been extinguished at this moment.

Doused with a bucket of cold water.

The Xue Family was fine, so how did they end up provoking Emperor Yu of Tiandu Mountain?

Zhang Xiaoya said:

"As I just said, you all need to remember. Tomorrow morning, go apologize to Mr. Fang. Oh, and bring the heads of the Fan Family and Wang Family; this is the last time I'm saying this. Whether you listen or not is up to you."

After saying these words.

Zhang Xiaoya was too lazy to explain to them.

With a leap, she flew into the air.

In an instant, she was gone.

For a moment.

The entire courtyard fell into a dead silence.

"Master Xue! What should we do now?" a young man asked with a worried face.

"What else can we do? Go inform the Wang Family and Fan Family to go to the Tan Mansion tomorrow." Xue Feng said depressingly. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

"How did it come to this?"

"You ask me, who should I ask? But it shouldn't be a big deal, with Mr. Tan's support, and besides, if it was a big deal, Mr. Emperor Yu would surely come to deal with us, why notify us to assume guilt? Since he's asking us to confess, it indicates there's room for maneuver. Don't just stand there... Before that, deal with the ancestral grave matter."

"Yes! Brothers, deal with those who disturbed the Xue Family's ancestral grave first!"

"Let's go!"

...

Things went awry.

Zhang Xiaoya didn't mention that Emperor Yu was the one who disturbed the grave.

Zhang Xiaoya didn't know why Emperor Yu was upset, she was just responsible for notifying.

So, things went awry.

...

As expected.

The Wang Family and Fan Family received the notification from the Xue Family, saying someone intruded into the graveyard, disturbing the best Feng Shui area.

The two families dispatched twenty cultivators, including those in the Taoist Saint Realm, the Saint Realm, a dozen in the Great Heavenly Position, heading to the graveyard.

At this time.

Night had already fallen.

...

Fang Yu had already cleaned the graveyard.

Re-erected the monument.

After finishing these, Fang Yu said calmly, "Father, I will take these dragon bones... Although I don't know why the dragon bones appeared here. But I think, this is destiny... Perhaps, you had long known there would be such a day..."

Looking at the dragon bones beneath his feet, Fang Yu was quite moved.

Yes, he found dragon bones in his father's grave.

And extracted them all.

Fang Yu scanned around and said, "Tomorrow, the Xue Family, Wang Family, and Fan Family will come to apologize voluntarily... Since they dared to build a grave here, I will have them personally rebuild yours. Today, just bear with it for a bit."

After saying that.

The dragon bones flew into the Nine Layer Tower.

Fang Yu slowly rose up.
