Divine King of Honour-Chapter 432 - Are You Satisfied, My Lord?

"Great Elder, this absolutely cannot be allowed. Xu Nian is not one of the Xu Family, how can he possibly enter the Ancestor Vein?" Xu Ming immediately spoke up.

"Yes, Great Elder, there are rules within the clan that only Xu Family members can enter the ancestral land. Moreover, Xu Nian has not even awakened the Ancestor Vein Power; he simply does not qualify to enter the ancestral land," another middle-aged man named Xu Zhong quickly added.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yu and the others instantly became enraged.

These two were clearly targeting Xu Nian.

Obviously, they did not want Xu Nian to enter the Xu Family Ancestral Land.

"Hmph, Xu Nian is the grandson of Xu Tianxu and his surname is Xu, how can he not be considered a member of the Xu Family? You bunch of pedantic fools. As for the fact that Xu Nian's bloodline has not awakened, that's because he has not yet undergone the baptism. I believe, with his talent, he will certainly reach the Second Rank," Xu Tianxu retorted coldly.

"But..." Xu Ming and Xu Zhong seemed to want to argue further.

However, they were directly interrupted by a wave of Xu Tianxu's sleeve.

Xu Ming and Xu Zhong were not Xu Tianxu's sons; they were the sons of Xu Tianxu's elder brother, Xu Tianhong.

Xu Tianxu originally had one son and one daughter, namely, Xu Nian's mother's brother.

However, this uncle had died before Xu Xin was even born.

Thus, Xu Tianxu now had only one daughter.

Xu Tong was Xu Ming's son, who died by Xu Nian's hand.

Naturally, Xu Ming opposed Xu Nian at every turn.

Seeing Xu Tianxu actually intending to let Xu Nian undergo the Ancestor Vein Awakening baptism was far from acceptable to Xu Ming.

As for Xu Zhong, it was for the sake of his son.

His son was currently the highest in the Xu Family ever to have awakened the Ancestor Vein Power.

He had reached the Fourth Rank.

He was considered a peerless genius disciple who had always been secretly nurtured by the Xu Family.

He was bound to be the future Family Head of the Xu Family.

Although he did not believe that Xu Nian could surpass his own son, having one less competitor was always better.

Moreover, Xu Nian had achieved the Saint Realm at such a young age.

What if he awakened some powerful Ancestor Vein Power? Wouldn't that mean one more competitor?

Xu Nian had been silent all along.

In fact, he indeed wanted to enter the ancestral land.

Emperor Ye Tian had once said that the piece of Black Jade he carried was related to the ancestral land.

Only by entering the ancestral land could he unlock the secrets of this Black Jade.

Now that the opportunity was right before him, he naturally did not want to miss it.

Besides, his mother was still inside, and he had an unavoidable reason for going.

"Swoosh!"

Just then, two figures flew over.

Leading them was an elderly man.

This elder had a youthful appearance despite his white hair, carrying an unspoken authority.

The aura emanating from him was even that of a Half-Emperor Level.

Next to him was a Saint, who was none other than the Xu Family Saint Xu Nian had met twice.

Xu Nian easily guessed the identity of the Half-Emperor Senior.

Who else could it be but the Family Head Xu, his grandfather's brother Xu Tianhong?

"Greetings, Family Head!"

Xu Ming and Xu Zhong promptly bowed.

Although they were sons of the Xu Family Head.

On normal occasions, they all referred to him as the Family Head.

It showed just how strict the Xu Family customs were.

Upon seeing Xu Tianhong arrive, Xu Tianxu also slightly nodded as a greeting.

From this, Xu Nian could tell that the relationship between Xu Tianhong and his own grandfather wasn't too good.

Xu Tianhong paid no mind to Xu Tianxu but instead focused his gaze on Xu Nian

"Family Head, the Great Elder insists on having Xu Nian undergo the Ancestor Vein Power awakening. He is not our Xu Family's member, and even if he indeed awakens the Ancestor Vein Power and reaches the Second Rank, he must absolutely not be allowed to enter the ancestral land. That is the foundation of our Xu Family, how can we tolerate an outsider..." Xu Ming spoke up upon seeing his father arrive.

He immediately started to speak.

But before he could finish,

Xu Tianhong slapped Xu Ming's face fiercely.

"Smack!"

Xu Ming was instantly dazed.

He didn't understand why his father would suddenly hit him.

Wasn't he always at odds with the Great Elder?

Xu Tianxu was also surprised.

He didn't quite understand his elder brother's actions.

Back when he had protected Xu Xin, his elder brother had strongly opposed it.

In the end, it was only through threats using his status as the Great Elder that he had reluctantly agreed.

Now why was he suddenly siding with Xu Nian?

The Xu Family Saint who came with them knew the reason.

It was obviously due to Xu Nian's new status.

Alien Minister Elder of Divine River Palace, a position just below one and above tens of thousands.

Every power wanted to curry favor with Divine River Palace.

But Divine River Palace had not offered an olive branch to any power.

Now, Xu Nian was a breakthrough for the Xu Family.

How could Family Head Xu possibly want to give up this opportunity?

After learning this news, Xu Tianhong had pondered for a long time.

He decided to first seal the news about Xu Nian and then personally visit the Divine River Palace to talk with Xu Nian.

But before he could go to Divine River Palace, Xu Nian had already arrived in advance.

And to happen at the time when Master Qingluo had kidnapped Xu Xin.

This infuriated him terribly.

If Xu Nian was truly angered,

And later used the power of Divine River Palace to suppress the Xu Family,

Then the Xu Family would truly be finished.

So after much thought, Xu Tianhong concluded that Xu Nian absolutely could not be offended.

He hadn't imagined his own son to be so incompetent.

Before he could even speak, he had, for his personal vendetta, pushed Xu Nian to the opposite side of the Xu Family.

How could Xu Tianhong not silence him?

"Hmph, you go stand aside. How is Xu Nian not a member of my Xu Family? The Great Elder is right; since he is the Great Elder's direct external grandson and carries the Xu surname, how could he not possibly awaken the Ancestor Vein Power? I see you are acting out of personal desire, deliberately targeting Xu Nian. I'll have you go to the Cliff of Reflection for three years to reflect on your actions, and only return when you truly realize your mistake," said Xu Tianhong coldly.

"What? Reflect for three years?" Xu Ming and Xu Zhong both showed shocked expressions.

The Cliff of Reflection was filled with strong winds and cold snow. Reflecting there for three years in such conditions was a very severe punishment.

They hadn't expected their father to impose such a harsh punishment on them for the sake of Xu Nian.

Xu Tianxu was also puzzled, wondering if his elder brother had taken the wrong medicine today.

Xu Nian, although a bit surprised, soon understood what was going on.

It seemed that Xu Tianhong was not such a rigid person; although ruthless, he was willing to go to any lengths for the benefit of the family.

This was him extending an olive branch.

"I wonder, Lord Xu Nian, if you find my handling of this situation satisfactory?"

Just then, Xu Tianhong walked up to Xu Nian with a smile and spoke.

"Lord?"

Xu Ming and Xu Zhong heard this, and their hearts surged like tumultuous waves.

Their own father was actually calling Xu Nian "Lord"?

They even doubted whether they had heard wrong.

Xu Tianxu also looked surprised.

Could it be that this grandson of his had secrets unknown even to him?
