Even if Tian Anping didn't ask for help, the Tian Clan of Daze still tried their best to save him.
In order to protect him, the Tian Clan didn't hesitate to engage in a bloody war with the Fufeng Ryu clan. From this, one could see Tian Anping's value.
"What happened in the end?" Jiang Wang asked.
"Tian Anping's Golden Body Jade Marrow was broken, the Four Great Sacred Buildings were destroyed, and his Inner Mansion Realm was reduced. He was sealed for ten years and confined to the Daze County. Within these ten years, he couldn't break through or leave the county. With his cultivation and the ten years of his mortal lifespan, he was able to atone for his crime of killing Liu Shentong. "
Yan Fu sighed, "This year is already the ninth year."
If one didn't reach the Shenlin Realm, it would still be an illusion. Only by reaching the Shenlin Realm could one truly break through the lifespan limit. With a Golden Body Jade Marrow, one wouldn't be afraid of aging, and one's cultivation would only decline after death.
Since ancient times, only one in ten thousand cultivators could break through the Shenlin Realm. Every one of them had to go through hardships.
After one's realm was reduced, the difficulty of regaining it was multiplied. Ordinary people who had their Golden Body Jade Marrow broken and the Four Great Sacred Buildings destroyed had almost no chance of recovering. But for Tian Anping, he was sealed for ten years.
This showed how terrifying this person was.
"For such a peerless genius, not being able to make any progress in his cultivation for ten years is truly a terrifying torture." Jiang Wang sighed, "But compared to the dead Liu Shentong, this is already fortunate enough."
Tian Anping didn't kill an ordinary person. He was the legitimate son of a famous clan, a member of the Fufeng Ryu clan in Tianjiao.
He couldn't have not paid a price.
"Who said he wasn't?" Yan Fu said, "In order to protect Tian Anping's life, the Tian Clan paid a heavy price and gave up a huge amount of resources. When the Tian Clan Master welcomed Tian Anping back, he said, 'I don't know if the Tian Clan is lucky or unlucky to have you.'"
Listening to Yan Fu's narration, Jiang Wang's mind was filled with the scene of Tian Anping's appearance in the Seven Stars Valley.
Thin clothes over his body, hands and feet bound, chains dragging on the ground.
Calm, pain, indifference, madness.
It was as if it had gathered all the contradictory existences.
Yan Fu continued, "However, the head of the Ryu family only replied with one sentence: 'If Liu Shentong can be revived, the Ryu family is willing to give up these things!' This left the Tian family speechless."
Save the people and lose the land, but gain the people and the land. If you keep the land but lose the people, you will lose both the people and the land.
No matter how many resources there were, it was impossible to produce a top-notch genius.
A huge amount of wealth and resources could only slow down the decline of the Ryu clan. Willow Shentong alone could bring the Ryu clan back to its peak. It went without saying which was more important.
Back then, Tian Anping and Liu Shentong had fought over something. Before the great battle, only the two of them were present. Later on, when Liu Shentong died, Tian Anping did not mention a word about it. Even now, no one knew the reason.
However, the matter of Tian Anping killing Liu Shentong was a lose-lose for both parties and even the families behind them.
The Fufeng Ryu clan was unable to recover from the setback, and the Daze Tian clan had almost bled dry in order to atone for Tian Anping's sins.
It was no wonder that the Tian family was filled with resentment towards Tian Anping.
A normal person would not have made such a choice.
In the past ten years, only Wang Yiwu had attempted to kill Chung Geng Sheng. However, Chung Geng Sheng was still alive and well, while Wang Yiwu and Military God Jiang Mengxiong were both expelled from Linzi and sent to the death row for three years.
In the end, Tian Anping did not pay with his life. Wasn't this unfair to the Fufeng Ryu clan?
Tian Anping was a Tianjiao that was beaten from Shenlin to the Inner Palace and was not allowed to break through for ten years. Wasn't this too harsh for Tian Anping?
Different people would have different answers.
However, there was one thing that everyone was clear about. If no one had stopped the bloody battle in the past, the Fufeng Ryu clan would have been destroyed in the end.
"I've seen Tian Anping." Jiang Wang said solemnly, "He is indeed a terrifying person."
Now, he had two palaces and two abilities. Thinking back to the time when he met Tian Anping, the Tian Anping whose cultivation was limited to the Outer Palace, he still felt terrified.
Logically speaking, no matter who it was in the Inner Palace, he should have the confidence to fight.
However, the terrifying pressure that Tian Anping gave him was something he did not even feel from Hai Zongming of the Outer Palace.
Even if he was suppressed for ten years, such a person might not have stopped improving.
However, after the Inner Palace was the establishment of the Starlight Holy Tower. He was beaten back from Shenlin. The Starlight Holy Tower was established early, and the abilities were set early … What else could he do?
Jiang Wang could not think of anything, but he felt that Tian Anping must have his own way … a way that normal people could not think of.
When the ten years were up, he might be able to find out how Tian Anping had spent the past ten years.
Yan Fu obviously did not want to continue talking about Tian Anping. He finally drank the wine in his hand and said, "Liu Shentong was killed. Fufeng Liu can no longer see the future. Even so, my ancestor did not decide to cancel the marriage. The Tian family of the Daze paid such a huge price. My ancestor, as the in-laws of the Ryu clan, also contributed. However, the problem lies with Xiuzhang's younger brother. "
"Liu Xuanhu?" Jiang Wang was curious. "Is he also a genius?"
"On the contrary!" Yan Fu said, "When Liu Shentong died, he was only ten years old. He had just adjusted his body and opened his meridians by taking a pill. With the resources of the Ryu clan and the guidance of strong people, he was able to reach the Reaching Heaven State in just one year. However, nine years have passed, and he is still in the Reaching Heaven State. He was stopped in front of the Heaven and Earth Gate for eight years. "
Jiang Wang said, "Maybe this means that his Heaven and Earth Gate is indestructible and has great potential …"
Yan Fu shook his head. "Wang Yiwu was stuck in the Reaching Heaven State for so long. Who said that he was mediocre? The Heaven and Earth Gate is something that can be observed. Facts have proven that Liu Xuanhu was unable to break through the Heaven and Earth Gate. Even with the support of the Fufeng Ryu clan, which has been passed down from generation to generation, it is impossible for him to have the fighting strength of a Shenlin. "
All the top aristocratic families had similar inheritances.
For example, the old master of the Junggenjia, Chongxuan Yunbo, had relied on the Junggenjia family's inheritances to have the fighting strength of a Shenlin when he reached the peak of the Outer Building.
Without such methods, the Junggenjia would have fallen to the bottom of the valley when Chongxuan Futu, Chongxuan Mingshan, and Chongxuan Chu Liang died in battle.
Of course, the Junggenjia now had one family and two marquises.
There was nothing much to say about Chongxuan Mingguang, while Chongxuan Minghe was considered average. The younger generation, Jung Genzun, had stolen the limelight of his peers. The son of Futu, Chung Geng Sheng, was not to be outdone. He had obtained the top-notch divine ability, Heavenly Transformation, in the Inner Mansion Realm. His future was promising.
After returning to the Fufeng Ryu clan, Liu Shentong's younger brother, Liu Xuanhu, was too weak to support the family. In order to pass down the glory, the Ryu clan had to pass down the family's inheritance.
The top aristocratic families didn't just pass down the family's status and title. They also passed down the extraordinary power. Passing down the family's inheritance wouldn't work.
Whoever had the extraordinary power would have the status and authority.
The real world was just that cruel.
Once the powerful Junggenjia and Chongxuan Chu Liang rose up, they had to establish their own families.
However, what if no one in Chongxuan Yunbo's line could support the family and protect the Shen Lin Clan's fighting strength? That would be for Chongxuan Chu Liang to take control of the family.
Marquis Dingyuan was also good, but how could he compare to the hereditary Marquis Bowang?
When Yan Fu said this, Jiang Wang completely understood.
With the Beijun Yen Clan's background, the only person who could match up with Yan Fu was the daughter of the first wife of a prestigious family. Once Yoo Hoo-chang's line became a side branch of the Ryu clan, they naturally wouldn't have the right to marry into the Yan family.
This point wasn't something that could be changed by Yan Fu's will.
This was why he said that with his background, he couldn't decide his own marriage.
