Inside the house, Yuan and Jun were looking at Chen, and Chen was also looking at the two of them.
The others caught up very quickly. The four Immortal Lords, Yao, and Lu An quickly arrived at the courtyard. The six of them could see Yuan and Jun standing in the middle of the house from outside, but they could not see Chen. The four Immortal Lords hesitated, not knowing if they should enter. Yao and Lu An were the same.
After some hesitation, Yao wanted to enter the house, but Lu An grabbed her wrist.
Yao turned to look at Lu An. Lu An did not say anything, but only shook his head slightly.
This matter only required the two of them, there was no need for a third party. As the Immortal Master and Immortal Empress, Yuan and Jun were extremely stable experts. They knew how to control themselves and would not cause trouble. Some things should be done as they should. If others tried to persuade them, not only would it not affect the outcome, it would also implicate them.
"Unfilial son! Kneel! " Yuan roared. His voice was so loud that it hurt everyone's ears. It even spread throughout Sengoku, so that everyone in Sengoku could hear it clearly!
Everyone in Sengoku was shocked and turned to look at the center. This was the voice of the Immortal Master, and it was filled with anger. Everyone was stunned, but no one dared to go near, let alone investigate.
After Yuan roared, Chen's heart trembled. Actually, he already knew that he had to be judged by his parents after they came out of seclusion. Before that, he was safe. During the process of being locked up here, he had been preparing himself mentally for this day. However, when the two of them stood in front of him, he realized that his preparations were useless.
However, it was not completely useless. At least he did not break down now. He looked at his angry parents, and in comparison, he seemed rather calm. He walked out from behind the desk, walked to the empty space in front of him, and knelt down.
Plop.
His knees made a dull sound as he knelt on the ground.
"You betrayed the clan and colluded with the enemy! What else do you have to say! "Yuan clenched his fists, as if he would kill Chen at any moment!
Chen's body trembled. He looked up at his parents and said, "I admit that I colluded with the enemy, but I did not betray the clan."
"How dare you quibble!" Yuan roared. "Do you think that just because you harmed the Hachiko clan, you didn't harm Sengoku? You've been learning Sengoku's rules since you were young. Betraying the rules is betraying the clan! "
"…"
Chen looked at his parents. He did not want to be in a deadlock on this issue any longer. He said, "Since you think so, I have nothing to say."
"So you're the only one who's willing to admit it?" Abyss shouted angrily. "Working with Qi, colluding with the Deathkin, and even trying to instigate Yao and Lu An to rebel. You admit to all these?!"
"Yes," Chen said. "I'll admit it."
Creak!
Yuan was furious. His face turned red as if blood was about to spurt out of it. He slammed his palm out!
Bang!!
Chen did not even have the chance to react as the palm struck his chest. Blood spurted out from his mouth as he was sent flying!
Boom …
Chen's body crashed into the desk and bookshelf, and a deep crack appeared on the wall. The bookshelves around him collapsed, and all the books fell one after another, landing on his body in an extremely sorry state.
"Pfft …"
Fresh blood spurted out from Chen's mouth. What he spat out was not just fresh blood, but also fragments of his organs. Chen could not stop himself from vomiting. His face was pale as if he was suffocating, and he looked as if he would die at any moment.
That palm strike almost took Chen's life.
Jun's heart ached as she saw the situation. She quickly stopped her husband as tears streamed down her face. She said to Abyss anxiously, "Stop fighting!"
"…"
Abyss looked at Jun. He naturally loved his wife, but that was different from the current situation! He had not seen his wife cry for a long time. His heart ached, but he could only grit his teeth and say, "The Celestials have rules. No one can go against them!"
Following that, Abyss looked at Chen, who was lying in the mess, and clenched his fists.
Was he angry? Of course, he was angry!
Was he heartbroken? Extremely heartbroken!
He was angry that his own children had betrayed the clan and colluded with the enemy. He had always been confident in his three children and had never thought that something like this would happen to him. Especially after Qi's incident, he had personally talked to his three children and told them not to go down the wrong path. Even so, something still happened.
When he talked to his three children, he was most worried about Yao because Yao was simple-minded. Lu An had the bloodline of the Deathkin and was the most dangerous. Next was Qing. After all, Qing had always been free and rarely interacted with others. She might be deceived by the Deathkin. Abyss was least worried about Chen because Chen had carried out too many missions. He thought that Chen had a stable temperament and was ambitious. No matter what, it was impossible for him to collude with the Deathkin.
Looking at Chen, who was vomiting blood, Abyss's entire body trembled violently. Just as he mobilized his power and was about to yell at Chen, Chen spoke first.
His face was covered in blood and he could not even support himself with his arms. However, he stubbornly raised his head and looked at his parents with all his might.
"If … you had appointed me as the Young Master earlier … I would never have done something like this!" Chen tried his best to speak. One could hear the pain in his body from his voice, but they could also hear the pain in his heart. Tears of grievance flowed from Chen's eyes as he shouted himself hoarse, "I want to become the Immortal Master! I will not betray the clan! I can only contribute! "
Buzz —
Abyss and Jun's body trembled violently. Both of them instantly widened their eyes and looked at their child in disbelief!
Not only the two of them, even the four Immortal Monarchs outside the door trembled violently when they heard these words. They were dumbfounded!
They never thought that there would be such a reason!
What Chen said under such circumstances, in addition to Chen's crying state, it was impossible for him to lie. There was also no need to use this reason to lie. This sentence was the real reason why he did what he did.
For the position of the Immortal Master.
Immediately, the four Immortal Monarchs outside the door looked at Yao. Yao's face was pale. She naturally heard Chen's words clearly.
Her husband had said these words to her before so that she could prepare herself mentally. However, even so, when she heard these words from her brother, she still could not take it.
This feeling … It was as if she had harmed her brother.
Yao's eyes reddened instantly. Lu An saw his wife's expression and reached out to hold her hand tightly, helping her control her emotions.
In the house, Abyss and Jun looked at their daughter outside the door, and then looked at each other. They never thought that the reason why their child was forced to commit such a grave mistake was actually for the position of the future Immortal Master.
Indeed, before Yao grew up, the candidate in their hearts was naturally Chen. Without a doubt, Chen was more suitable to take on the heavy responsibility than Qing. However, after Yao displayed her outstanding talent, Abyss and Jun were very clear that Yao's future strength would definitely be much stronger than Chen's. Although Yao's scheming was shallow, she had always been pure and kind. It was enough as long as there was someone to assist her in scheming. However, the position of the Immortal Master had to be given to someone stronger. Hence, the two of them gradually treated Yao as the future Immortal Master.
However, they never thought that things would develop to this extent. Jun's heart was extremely pained, but Abyss did not.
He looked at Chen, and his eyes were filled with resentment for Chen's failure to live up to his expectations!
"The position of the Immortal Master belongs to whoever is capable. The Immortal Master has never belonged to any branch of Sengoku, and has never belonged to any family!" Abyss looked at Chen, and said furiously, "Whoever is strong and most qualified to lead Sengoku down the path, the position of the Sengoku will belong to that person! If the children of the four Immortal Lords display unparalleled talent and abide by the Immortal rules, the position of the future Immortal Master will belong to him! "
"This will never change!" Abyss clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth, and said furiously, "Even if I could foresee that you would betray the clan because of this, I will never change my decision. The position of the Immortal Master will never belong to you!"
Hearing Abyss's words, Chen's body, which was lying in a pool of blood, trembled. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
He never thought that his father would be so resolute!
"However, if it wasn't for little sister, I would be the most talented person! The position of the Immortal Master will be mine! " Chen was unwilling to accept this. In order to inherit the position of the Immortal Master, he worked hard day and night to cultivate, and carried out so many dangerous missions. He roared, "As long as Yao doesn't want it, it's mine!"
"…"
Abyss looked at his son, and was so angry that his face turned purple. He could not say a single word.
He was beyond cure!
Abyss wanted to speak, but in the end, he controlled his emotions and did not roar at Chen. He turned to look at Jun, and said heavily, "Let's go!"
Jun's body trembled, and her heart ached as she looked at her heavily injured child. She wanted to heal her child, but Abyss grabbed her wrist tightly.
"I hope that before you die, you can figure out where you went wrong." Abyss looked at his son, and finally said, "That way, after you die, your ancestors might forgive you!"
With that, Abyss forcefully pulled Jun out of the house. He released the immortal formation, and once again placed Chen under house arrest.
