These words drew nods of agreement from the Shu family members.
"That makes sense, this method is the safest."
"But what if he doesn't want to?"
"He has no choice but to agree; does he think he can escape from our grasp?"
"Besides, we're doing this for his own good. The cultivation world is so dangerous; a slight misstep could cost you your life!"
"If he's still not satisfied, I'll just give him more compensation afterward."
The crowd was buzzing with discussion about how to keep Chen Tianwen under control in the Shu family's ancestral land.
The ancestral home of the Shu family has defensive measures left over from ancient times, which helped the Shu family survive many crises of extermination.
Keeping Chen Tianwen under control here is undoubtedly the safest and most secure method.
These words, when they reached Shu Yuntian's ears, sent a chill down his spine.
Memories of his previous secret encounter with Chen Tianwen flooded back into his mind.
Faced with that terrifying four-armed primordial spirit, he couldn't even muster the will to resist.
And this group of family members actually wanted to restrict Mr. Chen.
That would be terrible if it caused Mr. Chen to become enemies with the Shu family.
Shu Yuntian clearly knew
If Chen Tianwen wanted to, wiping out the entire Shu family wouldn't be a problem.
The Shu family did not perish under the curse of heaven.
Instead, he died by Chen Tianwen's sword, which would have been a real tragedy.
"Absolutely not!"
He shouted and quickly tried to stop them.
"Yun Tian, is there a problem?"
The others, including the patriarch of the Shu family, all looked at him at the same time.
"That Mr. Chen's strength is extraordinary; he is far beyond our control!"
Shu Yuntian quickly replied.
"How powerful can a young man in his early twenties be?"
A middle-aged man with bright white eyes said.
He has a pair of naturally heterochromatic eyes, which can reveal a person's innate bone age and cultivation level.
A few days ago, when Chen Tianwen and his group first arrived, he was in the welcoming party.
At that time, he used his heterochromatic eyes to look at that Mr. Chen.
His bone age was found to be only twenty years old.
At the age of twenty-something, even if that Mr. Chen is the most outstanding genius, reaching the late Nascent Soul stage is the highest one can achieve.
If the Shu family were to use all their strength, suppressing a Nascent Soul cultivator would be a piece of cake.
No matter how powerful a Nascent Soul stage kid is, he can't possibly escape the grasp of the Shu family!
"No, you don't understand!"
Shu Yuntian shook his head, a bitter smile on his face: "Yi Yao told me that when Mr. Chen was in the Nascent Soul stage, he killed a cultivator in the early stage of the Divine Transformation stage with a single sword strike."
Upon hearing this, all the cultivators in the Shu family immediately fell silent.
The Shu family has weathered many vicissitudes over the years.
They had seen many Nascent Soul cultivators fight against Nascent Soul cultivators.
Many talented cultivators can achieve this by using heaven-defying techniques and bloodline artifacts.
The Shu family itself once produced a prodigy who fought and killed a Nascent Soul cultivator, becoming famous for a time.
However, fighting beyond one's level is usually extremely difficult. The genius of the Shu family who fought against the Nascent Soul cultivator paid a huge price and remained at the Nascent Soul level for the rest of his life, without making any progress.
However, Chen Tianwen actually killed the Nascent Soul cultivator with a single sword strike.
"Instant kill" and "fight to the death" differ by only one word, but their value is worlds apart.
Even the powerful figures in the late-stage Nascent Soul realm of the Shu family wouldn't dare claim that they could instantly kill a Nascent Soul early-stage cultivator.
Shu Yuntian ignored the shock of the Shu family members.
He continued, "Later, Mr. Chen and Yi Yao entered the Purple Meteor Ruins together, subdued two demon kings with ancient bloodlines, and broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm within the Purple Meteor Ruins."
Shu Yuntian's voice carried a hint of shock.
Demon Kings are cultivators far stronger than humans.
Subduing two demon kings is even more difficult than killing two demon kings, let alone demon kings who possess ancient bloodlines.
Demons with ancient bloodlines are even more powerful in combat, and usually require multiple Nascent Soul cultivators to work together to have a chance of winning.
And that Mr. Chen actually managed to subdue two of them!
The key is that he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage only after being subdued!
This level of strength is beyond the Shu family's comprehension.
In their memory, the only person who could do this was probably that saint from the Shu family...
"As for his current strength..." Shu Yuntian continued, "I secretly fought him a few days ago. He only revealed a little bit of his primordial spirit illusion, but it still made me tremble with fear!"
"That primordial spirit is too terrifying. Even if all of us from the Shu family were combined, we would definitely not be his match!"
A rare hint of fear flashed in Shu Yuntian's eyes: "Not only that, Yi Yao said that this person is also a member of the Array Dao Clan, and also possesses the inheritance of an ancient Qilin..."
"And what we've seen so far is just the tip of the iceberg for Mr. Chen."
"I suspect..." Shu Yuntian's voice trembled slightly as he finished speaking, "This Mr. Chen is very likely the reincarnation of some ancient sage!"
After he finished speaking, the entire Shu family fell silent.
There was nothing that could be done; what Shu Yuntian said...
It was absolutely stunning.
One sword strike instantly kills a Nascent Soul cultivator.
They subdued the two demon kings.
Even the projection of his primordial spirit could intimidate Shu Yuntian.
If what Shu Yuntian said is true, then this Mr. Chen could very well be the reincarnation of a legendary ancient sage.
To clash with such a figure would be tantamount to suicide for the Shu family.
"Enough, enough!" the Shu family patriarch said, breaking the silence.
"No matter how powerful Mr. Chen is, or who he is reincarnated from, we members of the Shu family would never do anything wrong. We are already very grateful that he has helped us!"
The words of the Shu family patriarch gave those who had just been clamoring to control Chen Tianwen a way out.
They all said, "Our ancestor was right. We, the Shu family, would never do such a thing."
"Yes, yes, we can't tarnish the Shu family's reputation."
"We should still treat Mr. Chen well."
Hearing these words, Shu Yuntian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
at the same time.
The Shu family, inside Chen Tianwen's teahouse.
Chen Tianwen sat cross-legged on a futon, his flesh and blood radiating a precious light, and with each breath, auspicious streams gushed forth.
At this moment, his entire consciousness was immersed in the Purple Mansion.
Within the Purple Palace, the purple clouds were deep and beautiful, like a dream, as if it were the world at the beginning of time.
