"An ancient chess game that has been passed down to this day?" Everyone froze upon hearing Luo Juntian's words. Where did this chess game come from?
“No wonder we haven’t been able to understand it. It has a history of thousands of years, even tens of thousands of years. Who can decipher it?” someone from the Luo family said in surprise.
“If it’s genuine, I can give it a try,” Luo Juntian said calmly. “But if it’s fake, even if I take action, it won’t help.”
"I see." Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes showed a hint of regret. Luo Juntian's strength had reached the peak of the Great Emperor Realm, making him virtually invincible below the Saint Realm.
However, even Luo Juntian was powerless to help. How could they break this?
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Luo Juntian; their fates were in his hands.
Luo Juntian's gaze swept around the room before finally settling on Luo Juntian. He slowly exhaled and said, "Third brother, I know you harbor resentment, but if you remain obstinate, you will harm yourself and others."
Upon hearing this, Luo Juntian's eyes flashed with a cold glint, and he said, "I know what you are thinking, Senior Brother, but I have already fallen into demonic possession. How could I easily change my beliefs?"
"Wishful thinking!" Luo Zhan retorted angrily, "If it weren't for your father back then, you would no longer exist in this world!"
Luo Juntian's expression changed slightly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and he said, "If it weren't for Father, I would never have survived to this day."
"So what? You killed my father and took away his power. I will make you pay for this debt sooner or later!" Luo Juntian stared coldly at Luo Zhan.
A cold glint flashed in Luo Zhan's eyes as he sneered, "You killed your father first, so it's perfectly normal for me to seize your power. The future of my Luo family will never be handed over to you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the space fell silent. A chilling aura enveloped the vast space. The elders beside Luo Zhan released their majesty and pressed down on Luo Juntian. Luo Junzhan retreated to avoid being affected.
"Enough!" Just then, Luo Tianlong shouted, his voice filled with anger. He glared at the two men and demanded, "What do you want?"
Luo Zhan's expression stiffened for a moment. He looked at Luo Tianlong and said in a low voice, "Second brother, don't forget who helped the Luo family through the crisis back then!"
"This matter is over, and I will naturally not bring it up again. However, as the head of the Luo family, you have failed to bring benefits to the Luo family and instead brought disaster upon it. You made a mistake, and you need to take responsibility." Luo Tianlong said in a firm tone. He was Luo Zhan's older brother, so he was not afraid that Luo Zhan would hold a grudge if he said these words.
"I have not let the Luo family down," Luo Zhan shook his head and argued.
"Shut up!" Luo Tianlong snapped. "Now that the Nine Domains Ranking has been determined, Luo Hua is a member of the Luo family, and moreover, he is one of the top prodigies among the younger generation of our Luo family. Yet you refuse to give him the position of family head. Do you think the Luo family will be defeated by you?"
"I just..." Luo Zhan was about to say something when Luo Tianlong interrupted him. His expression sharpened as he stared intently at Luo Zhan and said, "Do you know that if it weren't for the fact that you are a descendant of the Luo family, you would no longer be a member of the Luo family?"
Luo Zhan's expression changed, and he stared blankly at Luo Tianlong. He did not doubt Luo Tianlong's words. With Luo Tianlong's current status, he could completely strip him of his position as the head of the Luo family.
After all, he had been cultivating for less than a hundred years, and his foundation was too weak, far inferior to those elders who had cultivated for thousands of years.
"If you dare to harbor any disloyal thoughts, then get out of the Luo family!" Luo Tianlong said coldly, his eyes icy. All of this was Luo Zhan's own doing, and he had no one to blame but himself.
“Father…” Luo Juntian’s face was pale, his eyes fixed on Luo Tianlong. He had not expected Luo Tianlong’s attitude towards him to change so drastically, and now he was even being asked to leave.
Luo Zhan looked at Luo Juntian with heartache. He had grown up with Luo Juntian since childhood and loved his younger brother dearly. Otherwise, he would not have risked sending Luo Juntian away.
“If you are willing to come with us, I will not treat you unfairly.” Luo Juntian turned his gaze to Luo Yifeng and said, “You should know that you alone cannot possibly contend with Gu Yifeng.”
A hint of hesitation flashed across Luo Juntian's face, as if he was struggling with something.
Upon seeing this, Luo Zhan's expression trembled violently, and he immediately stepped forward and shouted, "Don't even think about it!"
"Second Uncle, Luo Hua and I are both members of the Luo family. I hope you won't stop us." Luo Juntian looked up at Luo Zhan and spoke, his tone extremely sincere.
“Impossible.” Luo Zhan refused directly, saying, “If you insist on this, I will no longer try to persuade you, but I also have my own principles that I will never change.”
"Since that's the case, then don't blame your nephew." Luo Juntian said calmly, looking at the chessboard in the void. Suddenly, Luo Tianlong waved his hand, and a chess piece flew out and landed directly on the chessboard.
In an instant, a terrifying storm of destruction erupted. Wherever the chess piece landed, the entire chessboard collapsed violently, as if subjected to an extremely strong impact. Then, a deafening explosion rang out, and the chessboard shattered instantly, turning into dust and dissipating into nothingness.
"How could this be..." Luo Zhan's expression froze upon seeing this scene, his face turning ashen, as if he had been greatly shocked.
The chessboard he painstakingly built simply vanished.
"You bastard, how dare you destroy the chessboard! Do you know your crime?!" Luo Tianlong glared at Luo Zhan, his voice filled with boundless rage.
"Let the chessboard be destroyed, it's better than others coveting it," Luo Zhan sighed. He knew that Luo Tianlong was warning him not to reveal the chessboard's existence.
He would never be foolish enough to reveal this matter; such a heaven-defying technique could only belong to the Luo family.
A hint of surprise flashed in Luo Juntian's eyes. This was the first time he had seen Luo Zhan show signs of rebellion against the family. Although he was also pleased, after all, the rise of the Luo family was inseparable from Luo Tianlong's efforts, he still felt uneasy at this moment. Luo Zhan's change was too fast.
"My Luo family has stood firm in the desolate region for tens of thousands of years, with an unparalleled foundation. Even the sects and families ranked lower on the Nine Domains Ranking cannot shake the Luo family's position." Luo Tianlong spoke proudly, his eyes revealing a domineering aura that looked down upon the world. From ancient times to the present, his Luo family has always been among the top forces in the Nine Domains City!
"My Luo family will last forever!" Luo Zhan laughed loudly, his smile carrying a hint of heroic spirit.
“That’s right, eternally immortal!” Luo Tianlong nodded in agreement, then looked at Luo Juntian and asked, “Do you now realize that you were wrong?”
Luo Juntian remained silent for a moment, then clasped his hands and said, "Thank you for your understanding, family lord, but Juntian will never regret it."
"You are truly stubborn!" Luo Tianlong's eyes showed deep disappointment. Luo Zhan also shook his head and sighed. He had expected this outcome. Jun Tianjue would not be willing to be trapped in the Luo family. Even if he did not violate the ancestral teachings, he would definitely leave.
