Chapter 341: Returning (3)

Wu Yuehua's face changed. She clenched her teeth and said, "So what? Is he not going to take his revenge against that fellow from the divine race? The fifth principal wasn't the one who had killed his father. Does he only have the courage to take out his anger on the multiple character faction? What a joke."

Elder Sun calmly said, "I don't know if he will do so. But I do know that his father had perished helping the fifth principal back then. Prior to his death, the fifth principal had promised a copy of his research data to the Zhou Family. Unfortunately, the data had been swallowed by Liu Wenyan and his fellow apprentices."

Wu Yuehua roared, "Nonsense! There is no such data! Furthermore, during the fifth principal's final moments, he had only said that he was grateful toward everyone who had helped him. He had never promised anything. And he had most certainly not promised the Zhou Family anything."

Elder Sun said, "I wasn't the one claiming that there is such a promise. You need to understand that the Zhou Family is the one saying so."

"So what if it's the Zhou Family?" Wu Yuehua coldly said, "This is Great Xia. Are you serving the Zhou Family? Even Zhou Mingren is only from a branch of a branch family. He is a great peak Mountainsea cultivator. Is he really so eager to be the Zhou Family's dog?"

Elder Sun frowned, "Nobody is serving anyone. But the multiple character faction has declined. In Great Zhou, the multiple character faction no longer exists. Liu Wenyan's return will only restart the old conflict."

"Cut the crap. Since he wants to return, nobody can stop him!"

With a roar, a massive cauldron appeared in the air. The cauldron tore through space itself and created a loud rumble as it pressed down upon Elder Sun.

At the same time, the middle-aged man flickered and reappeared before Yu Hong. With a smile, he said, "Elder Yu, it is better if you don't get involved. None of you can stop Big Brother Liu from returning today."

At the same time, combats were erupting in multiple other locations.

...

Atop a tall mountain.

Xia Huyou curiously asked, "Second granduncle, Liu Wenyan was not even a Skysoar cultivator when he left back then. How is he so well-connected? Why does he have so much prestige that so many people are still waiting for his return? Why have all these people been staying inactive when he was away?"

Marquis Xia lazily said, "Firstly, legitimacy. He is the direct disciple of the fifth principal. He is also the first disciple of the fifth principal. Thus, he is the successor of the fifth principal's will.

"Secondly, his peers from back then had all grown into experts. And back then, all these people were his close friends and fellow comrades.

"Thirdly, this fellow was a true freak. He used to be able to battle Skysoars at the Mental Tempering Stage. During the fifth principal's era, everyone below the Mountainsea Realm in the multiple character faction were basically his little brothers.

"Fourthly, before he was crippled, he was a blockhead. He did not treat the wealth of the multiple character faction as anything important and generously gave the wealth away. But he was lucky since all the wealth he had given out had ended up creating some experts.

"Fifthly, Liu Wenyan is not an orphan. In fact, he came from an influential family, the Liu Family."

"Liu Family?" Xia Huyou blanked out, "Which Liu Family?"

Marquis Xia rolled his eyes, "Which Liu Family can it be? It's the same Liu Family that nearly married their daughter to you back then."

"That Liu Family?" Xia Huyou exclaimed, "Liu Wenyan came from that family? But that Liu Family has already been destroyed..."

"Not all of them are dead." Marquis Xia said, "During that battle 50 years ago, they lost a Sunmoon. During the massive battle 30 years ago, they lost a few Mountainsea cultivators. During a battle 18 years ago, they lost a few more Mountainsea and Sunmoon cultivators. At that point, their family is near extinction. But some still survived. Liu Wenyan is one of them.

"The Liu Family had killed countless enemies and saved countless humans in the Allheaven Battlefeld. Liu Wenyan is one of the few surviving members of the Liu Family. Thus, the gratitude those people felt toward the Liu Family will now be directed toward Liu Wenyan."

Xia Huyou said in astonishment, "So he's actually from the Liu Family...No wonder nobody dares to lay a hand on him all these years..."

Marquis Xia smiled, "Nobody dares to touch him because he's trouble. Touching him is the same as inviting trouble to yourself. Liu Wenyan would be fine if he continues staying in Nanyuan, but now that he has left, the various experts will hear of it. And many of them are unwilling to see the multiple character faction rise again. Do you understand?"

"But why is that the case?" Xia Huyou asked, "Just because of the Zhou Family? They are far away at Great Zhou. This is Great Xia, the territory of the Xia Family. Can the Zhou Family get too arrogant in our place?"

"Bullshit!" Marquis Xia said, "What do you mean by our place? The Xia Family's hands are tied regarding this matter. Back then, Zhou Zhan had indeed perished while helping the fifth principal. The Great Zhou King had stayed silent about that. Because of that, your great grandpa can't get involved in this conflict either. He can only let the youngsters resolve their own conflict.

"In the end, Liu Wenyan crippled himself while Zhou Zhan's son is now on the verge of reaching the Invincible Realm. What else can we do?"

Xia Huyou nodded. He gloomily said, "Yeah, that makes it hard for us to get involved. But the Zhou Family...is really too overbearing. Weren't they told that there is no such data? Why do they insist on bothering the multiple character faction and spend the past 50 years suppressing them?"

"Who knows if the data really exists?" Marquis Xia smiled, "I have been suspecting that the so-called data for a cultural researcher's advancement into the Invincible Realm is not some actual data. Instead, the secret lies in his character. And many people share the same thought. But all of them have too much misgivings to do anything toward Liu Wenyan."

Xia Huyou looked shocked.

Marquis Xia curled his lips, "Thus, the suppression of the multiple character faction is not the wish of only one group of people. Rather, numerous groups are trying to suppress them, forcing Liu Wenyan to hand over the character. Silly kid, don't only look at things from the surface. The Zhou Family might not really be that overbearing. But everyone has simply decided to do so while pushing the Zhou Family to the front as the scapegoat.

"And the Zhou Family probably covets the character as well so they haven't even bothered trying to explain themselves. Because of that, they somehow turned into the leader of the single character faction."

Xia Huyou nodded in understanding. He had learned something new today. So that was why.

Marquis Xia said, "Liu Wenyan has yet to fully return. The moment he completes his return, that will be a signal that he has given up on his peaceful life in Nanyuan. More trouble will come knocking in the future." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ - ɴovᴇlbin

Xia Huyou frowned, "Second granduncle, is it proper to let the internal conflict between fellow humans escalate to such a level? This will only weaken the strength of Great Xia. Just look at how even the elders of the academy are fighting each other."

Marquis Xia inhaled deeply and said, "This...can't be considered a proper internal conflict. It is more like the final battle before the reorganization. The two holy lands are intending to reorganize the various prefectures and unify humanity, forming a single group that could fight together in the Allheaven Battlefield. Thus, such internal fights will persist for a while. Only after a winner has emerged would the reorganization happen smoothly."

"What? That’s happening?" Xia Huyou was astonished, "In other words, these intense conflicts are actually being supported by the various prefectures?"

"Of course." Marquis Xia nodded, "This is not only happening in Great Xia. Similar internal conflicts are happening in the other prefectures as well. The winners will be the ones to enjoy more power after the reorganization."

"Can't we come together without something like this?"

"Silly kid, you overestimate the human heart. It is not easy for so many different people to truly come together. Just let me give you an example. If the Xia Family is suddenly told to start obeying the Zhou Family, would you agree?"

"No!" Seeing how decisive Xia Huyou was, Marquis Xia laughed, "There you go."

"In that case, what is our family doing? Why do I feel like we're doing nothing?"

"Our family? Who says we're doing nothing?" Marquis Xia yawned, "Xia Changqing, Xia Yuwen, Xia Yunji...aren't all these members of the Xia Family? Our family is definitely involved in these internal conflicts as well."

“...”

Xia Huyou blinked. Why did he suddenly feel like he was actually Su Yu's enemy as well? Someone from the Xia Family, Xia Yuwen, was trying to snatch Chen Yong's position. After scratching his head, he decided to stop thinking about it. That had nothing to do with him.

Battles were still erupting everywhere. Some were trying to stop Liu Wenyan's return and some were trying to clear the path for him. On that day, a shabby old truck continued heading to the capital.

That day, numerous experts received news of his return. The experts of the various academies packed up and started heading toward Great Xia one after another.

A storm was brewing.

Fifty years ago, the fifth principal had failed. Liu Wenyan, the person once lauded to be the future sixth principal, had also failed and crippled himself.

Today, he was returning.

With his return, numerous people decided to visit Great Xia again, to once again set their eyes on the person called Liu Wenyan, to wait for that person one more time.
