Fang Hanshan did not know the reason behind it, but since his son-in-law requested, he had no choice but to immediately activate his Inner Strength. As Guan Yue had predicted, as soon as Fang Hanshan began to circulate his energy, he broke through to the Mysterious Heaven Realm.
After a series of intense sounds resembling the collapse of heaven and earth, roaring mountains and tsunamis, chaotic clouds flying, and sand and stones swirling in turmoil, Fang Hanshan truly broke through to the initial stage of the Mysterious Heaven Realm.
Dizzy and overwhelmed, Fang Hanshan stood up and laughed heartily. His son-in-law was truly considerate, helping him reach the long-desired Mysterious Heaven Realm in one go.
It was such a joyous moment.
He cupped his fists towards Guan Yue and said, "Virtuous son-in-law, quickly send me off. I still need to host the banquet; you all should come later. But virtuous son-in-law, you should change your name; calling you Guan Yue is not appropriate."
"Then let's call me Guan Tian. I often went by Guan Tian in the Lower Realm," Guan Yue casually replied.
Fang West quickly interjected, "No, I prefer you to be called Guan Yunfei. Guan Yunfei is such a beautiful name, so resounding."
Seeing Fang West's serious expression and eager look, Guan Yue nodded and said, "Alright then, we'll go with West's suggestion. From now on, I'll be called Guan Yunfei."
After Fang Hanshan agreed, Guan Yue immediately sent him out of Sky Peak Tower, while Direction East and Fang West continued to jump and run around inside Sky Peak Tower.
Soon after, Guan Yue called the two siblings to join Fang Hanshan's celebratory banquet.
As they stepped outside, the siblings realized that this was Guan Yue's Sky Peak Tower, a divine artifact! Both siblings widened their eyes in amazement as they looked at the small Sky Peak Tower. Direction East enviously said to his sister, "This is brother-in-law's divine artifact; it's essentially yours. From now on, you can arrange things inside as you wish. You can build an incredibly large palace and invite many friends to come play. Plus, you can walk freely in the skies of the Dragon Python Celestial Domain without others noticing."
Fang West smiled and said, "If Guan Yue agrees in the future, we can live inside this divine artifact while cultivating. And here we can raise whatever we want according to our preferences—fish, sheep, rabbits, flowers—how wonderful would that be?"
Direction East chimed in with a grin, "In the future when brother finds a sister-in-law for you, let her stay in this divine artifact with you. Build her a palace and give her five hundred maidservants so she can enjoy herself."
Guan Yue couldn't help but laugh heartily at Direction East's comment and replied, "Five hundred maidservants? Is that meant for you? But can you handle that?"
Direction East felt embarrassed and said awkwardly, "You don't have to put it so bluntly! Those five hundred maidservants could also be for you... Oh no, that's not going to work; my sister will have objections."
Hearing her brother speak so recklessly made Fang West refuse to agree as well.
"Brother, let me tell you, you can only have a maximum of ten wives, not more than our father. Otherwise, I won't recognize you as my brother."
Direction East said with a bitter face, "Look at how miserable I am; even my own sister is getting married, and I don't even have a partner."
Fang West quickly replied, "Do you want me to introduce you to some of my friends? Now that father is the clan leader, your status has risen. Naturally, many girls will come to pursue you."
The three hurriedly arrived at Fang Hanshan's celebration banquet hall. Looking around, there were nearly a thousand people celebrating Fang Hanshan's appointment as the new clan leader of the Fang Family, with representatives from various forces present.
Guan Yue sat in the junior section with Direction East and Fang West, alongside some disciples from the Minor Ancestor Realm and Great Dao Realm. Logically speaking, both Guan Yue and Fang West had already broken through to the Skybreaking Realm and should have been in the stronghold area. However, due to Fat Elder's dissatisfaction, they were deliberately made to sit in the junior section.
Throughout the banquet, Fat Elder kept glancing at Guan Yue from the corner of his eye, making her feel uncomfortable as if she was being watched. Tall Elder also occasionally cast his gaze toward Guan Yue, which made her sense his deep animosity.
Guan Yue did not understand why these two elders seemed to harbor resentment against her. It seemed she had no interaction with the tall elder at all.
After Guan Yue's inquiry, Direction East explained to her, "The reason Fat Elder has maintained his decision-making power in the Fang Family is not only because he is of mid-tier Mysterious Heaven Realm while the other elders are of lower-tier Mysterious Heaven Realm but also because he has a close relationship with Tai Shun Pavilion. The Fang Family has been under the protection of Tai Shun Pavilion through Fat Elder, which is the greatest guarantee for the safety of the Fang Family for generations."
Upon hearing this, Guan Yue couldn't help but feel angry. It seemed that Tai Shun Pavilion's influence was pervasive, infiltrating every corner of Dragon Python Celestial Domain. What about the powers of Taihan Pavilion and Ocean Harmony Empire? Adding Leap Ridge Pavilion into the mix meant she would need to be extra cautious moving forward.
Originally, she could act independently, but now that she was about to marry Fang West, she could no longer enjoy that freedom. At least she couldn't let Fang West suffer because of her.
During the banquet, Guan Yue had no interest in eating or drinking. Fang West chatted excitedly beside her while she responded absentmindedly. Sensing her distraction, Fang West stopped talking and focused on eating instead, occasionally serving her dishes and pouring her drinks.
The only thing that brought a bit of joy to Guan Yue was seeing Short Elder seemingly having a good relationship with Fang Hanshan; they clinked glasses and exchanged smiles.
Guan Yue realized that she would never find peace in the Fang Family again. She might face retaliation from Fat Elder since his son had lost all his power after consuming her Skybreaking Beneficial Pill! If Tall Elder, who also harbored animosity toward her, decided to take action against her as well, she would be in danger.
Determined, Guan Yue decided that once the banquet ended, she would leave Direction East and Fang West inside Sky Peak Tower under the pretense of having them build their own palace there. Of course, all necessary building materials were available inside.
"I saw you two siblings ate quite a bit at the banquet; now it's time to start construction and digest a little," she said with a laugh as she exited Sky Peak Tower.
She then set up a formation in her residence—a Divine-Level Formation designed to trap Gong Bufan. She knew that under Fat Elder and Tall Elder's intentional persuasion today, Fang Hanshan would likely get drunk and not wake up. In that case, it was very likely that Fat Elder would come looking for trouble with her.
As for how to deal with the Fat Elder, it is Guan Yue's greatest dilemma.
If he does not take action against the Fat Elder, he may very well find himself in a situation where he has no place to die, constantly at risk of being ambushed and attacked. However, if he does take action against him, whether injuring or killing him, it would damage the Fang Family's highest Combat Power and provoke Fang Hanshan's retaliation! An even more serious issue is whether he can actually defeat the Fat Elder. Another concern is whether this will draw the attention of Tai Shun Pavilion.
Guan Yue already knows that four factions are currently hunting him: Leap Ridge Pavilion, Tai Shun Pavilion, Taihan Pavilion, and Ocean Harmony Empire. Fang Hanshan is aware of this as well, but he can still help Guan Yue. However, if Guan Yue were to create conflict with his Fang Family, it would put Fang Hanshan in a difficult position; he might sacrifice his daughter and himself for the sake of his family. Guan Yue does not dare to take that risk.
Thus, dealing with the Fat Elder must be done covertly, making him realize the difficulty of the situation on his own. Otherwise, Guan Yue might consider eliminating him completely. But if Tall Elder also assists him, Guan Yue would be in great danger.
At this moment, Guan Yue does not have confidence in facing two Mysterious Heaven Realm Great Powers at once. After all, Guan Yue is merely a mid-tier Disciple in the Breaking Heaven Realm. However, after breaking through to the Breaking Heaven Realm, he has noticed that the two Primordial Infants in his Blood Sea have grown significantly. The two Primordial Infants have always been of equal size and have grown together without one overshadowing the other; even their consumption of Essence has been identical. This is what makes Guan Yue the happiest.
After breaking through to the Breaking Heaven Realm, Guan Yue wonders whether he will earn respect and admiration from others. He does not know, but he has noticed that he increasingly likes the person from the West. Could this phenomenon be due to her also breaking through to the Breaking Heaven Realm?
The Breaking Heaven Realm is indeed a fascinating stage!
At this time, at the banquet venue, Fang Hanshan was already thoroughly drunk from the relentless toasts from the Fat Elder and Tall Elder. The Fat Elder then said fiercely, "Brothers, for the sake of our Fang Family, I can tolerate Fang Hanshan being the patriarch of the Fang Family. However, I absolutely cannot tolerate that little girl from the Fang Family and her lecherous husband—namely that brat Guan Yue, no, now called Guan Yuntian. They conspired to deceive me and misled the elders of our family, causing my son—a peerless genius—to become a useless person with no combat ability whatsoever. Second Brother, take Fang Hanshan to a side room; Old Three and I will go find those two little brats in the Breaking Heaven Realm. I am going to teach them a lesson they will never forget—that elders are not to be offended."
The short elder sighed heavily and advised, "Big Brother, you must clarify things first; do not misunderstand them. Find out the reason before taking action. They consumed Skybreaking Beneficial Pill without any issues and broke through to the Breaking Heaven Realm at only fifteen or sixteen years old. Your son also took Skybreaking Beneficial Pill but had an accident; perhaps there are other reasons behind it—not necessarily that they plotted against your son."
Tall Elder Old Three coldly replied, "Exactly! Since they had no issues consuming it, why did your son encounter problems? It clearly shows they set him up."
"Did they voluntarily give that pill to Big Brother's son? Were they preparing to offer it willingly? If they offered it voluntarily, it could be seen as a plot against your son; however, I suspect Big Brother was tempted by greed and asked for it himself. Did they really bring a poison pill specifically to harm Big Brother's son?"
