The sudden appearance of Ye Tian left everyone present in shock, not only the Wang family members but also Cold Bo Stone and Leng Bo Feng, who were equally astonished.
Prior to this, they had endured torture. Wang Tianba had been a bandit, and Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti had previously been the strategist for Black Wind Stronghold. He understood what kind of punishment could be deemed as torture.
Torture is not only about inflicting physical pain on captives; it also aims to destroy their mental defenses. Therefore, the news of Ye Tian being burned to death by Crimson Dragon Golden Blood naturally reached Cold Bo Stone and his companion.
With the Cold Family already slaughtered and Ye Tian also falling victim to a cruel fate, this news left Cold Bo Stone and his companion feeling utterly despondent, wishing only for death but unable to attain it.
That is true torture.
However, Ye Tian had appeared.
"Ye Tian!" Wang Tianba was the first to snap back to reality, quickly standing up with an expression of extreme fear.
His fear did not stem from Ye Tian's "resurrection," as he had not witnessed Ye Tian being incinerated by Dragon Blood. What truly terrified him was Ye Tian's sudden appearance and how he had turned Wang Tiankuang into a corpse and injured Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti in the blink of an eye.
Martial cultivators possess a sense of awareness; Ye Tian's swift strike was not because his opponents were unaware but because they had no time to react.
Because of this, even though it was a surprise attack and both opponents were injured, it could not be denied that Ye Tian's strength had surged dramatically.
"Very good." These words came from Wang Weiyang's mouth, though he was not the second person to react since he had remained silent until now.
At this moment, Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti was still rolling on the ground, and there was no need to elaborate on what it felt like to have one's vital area branded with a hot iron.
Ye Tian did not respond; he merely glanced at Wang Weiyang. He paid no mind to Wang Tianba's words, as Wang Tianba's strength was equally beneath Ye Tian's notice.
"Ah! Ah!" Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti screamed in agony, but despite the pain, he did not faint. This was also the reason why Ye Tian did not take his life. Many times, killing evil-doers does not provide true relief; making them suffer worse than death is the best consolation for the victims.
"Yang'er..." Wang Tianba looked at Wang Weiyang in panic, having seen a glimmer of golden light in Ye Tian's eyes.
"Very good." Wang Weiyang repeated these two words, finally standing upright. The death of Wang Tiankuang did not affect him in the slightest; instead, there was a hint of excited laughter on his face. However, as soon as the smile appeared, it became overshadowed.
Seeing his beloved son steady, Wang Tianba felt somewhat reassured and shouted, "How can you survive?"
What he really wanted to ask was whether Ye Tian had obtained the Divine Dragon Inner Pill. But then he thought that asking like that would undermine his own momentum. In his urgency, he couldn't find suitable words, so he ended up saying this instead.
"You won't die; how could I?" Ye Tian sneered, his smile devoid of murderous intent.
The absence of murderous intent did not mean he did not want to kill. On the contrary, what he most wanted to do now was to slaughter the Wang family to avenge the deep grudge from Blood Sea. However, with Wang Weiyang present and the Fourteen Stewards below him, the advantageous situation did not belong to Ye Tian. Therefore, if his killing intent was too strong, it might disturb his mind. With great enemies before him, a disordered mind would be akin to handing over his life.
"Father, you should go back first; I will return shortly." Wang Weiyang spoke calmly and confidently to Wang Tianba.
After saying this, he bent down and picked up two wine cups from the table without having touched any alcohol before.
"He leaves first? You will return shortly?" Ye Tian pointed at Wang Tianba and laughed, "You should both leave together; it’s better to have company on the road to the Yellow Springs."
Wang Weiyang's earlier words were quite clear; killing Ye Tian did not seem difficult in his eyes. Such arrogance and demeanor can intimidate those who feel guilty, but it had no effect on Ye Tian. Firstly, he had strength and therefore felt no guilt. Secondly, he held a mindset of certain death; even if he could not defeat Wang Weiyang, he would never be intimidated by his opponent's aura.
"Hahaha! Young and reckless!" Wang Tianba naturally believed in his son's abilities, so upon hearing Ye Tian's mockery, he was not angry. He took it as a sign that Wang Weiyang had absolute confidence in victory and thus supported him without cursing.
Wang Tianba was not angry; neither was Wang Weiyang. He stepped forward with calm and slow footsteps toward Ye Tian, still wearing a faint smile on his face. However, that faint smile only made him appear more sinister.
Before this, the Fourteen Stewards had already retreated several steps back and stood firm. Their actions were based on the belief that they could not fully retreat after Ye Tian erupted, and they also thought that at this distance, even if Ye Tian made a move, Wang Weiyang would be able to stop him.
Wang Weiyang seemed quite displeased with this group of elderly Stewards. As he approached, he reached out and pushed them aside, even those who clearly did not obstruct his path could not escape this rude gesture.
"Care for a drink?" Wang Weiyang slowly walked up to Ye Tian and smiled.
"Heh, begging for mercy?" Ye Tian replied lightly as he accepted the drink, while closely watching Wang Weiyang's eyes. He not only wanted to guard against any sudden attack from the other party based on his gaze but also aimed to discern his thoughts through his expression.
After a moment of silence, the two entered a process of mutual staring. After a while, they simultaneously raised their cups and drank it all in one go.
In Wang Weiyang's eyes, Ye Tian saw the Shadow Falcon, but that was all he saw; his expression remained unchanged.
In Ye Tian's eyes, Wang Weiyang also perceived something—hatred.
After finishing their drinks, Wang Weiyang slowly raised his left hand. Just when everyone thought he was about to make a move, he surprisingly did something that left everyone dumbfounded.
"Your cup and mine; let us drink another." Wang Weiyang reached out to take the empty cup from Ye Tian's hand and returned to the table to pour more wine.
"What do you intend to do?" Ye Tian asked coldly, feeling somewhat anxious. At this moment, he realized he had been unconsciously influenced by Wang Weiyang.
"There's no rush; let's drink first," Wang Weiyang said as he continued pouring wine. The cup was small, so he lifted the wine jug high, letting the liquid flow slowly without spilling a drop.
The calmer Wang Weiyang appeared, the more uneasy Ye Tian felt. Until now, he had always thought of this person as immature and foolishly arrogant. However, after a year apart, he finally understood just how terrifying the young master of the Wang family was as described by others.
Without needing to make a move, the atmosphere had already shifted in favor of Wang Weiyang.
However, Ye Tian was ultimately not an ordinary person. The influence of Wang Weiyang on his mind faded after a moment, and the reason for his recovery was still hatred, as he heard the feeble breathing of Cold Bo Stone, barely hanging on...
"You and I have deep enmity from the Blood Sea, but in my eyes, you are quite compatible. However, since we are drinking, there must be a reason. Let that previous cup be my farewell gift to you..."
Wang Weiyang noticed the change in Ye Tianxin's demeanor and intended to disturb his mind again with words. However, before he could finish speaking, Ye Tian's voice interrupted him.
"This cup is my invitation for you to join me." After saying this, Ye Tian activated Yuqi Tayan Jue and appeared beside Wang Weiyang in the blink of an eye. Yet, he did not strike; instead, he reached out to grab a wine cup from the table, drank it all, and then smashed it.
"Please!" After smashing the cup, Ye Tian coldly glared at Wang Weiyang. Although Wang Weiyang appeared calm, Ye Tian keenly observed a slight outward movement of his palm just now—a subconscious defensive gesture.
Ye Tian's action of smashing the cup was unmistakably clear: after drinking, stop talking nonsense.
"Heh heh, interesting." Wang Weiyang chuckled as he picked up a wine cup, took a sip, and then placed it back on the table.
Ye Tian quietly watched Wang Weiyang's actions; his meaning was also very clear: "I can drink after killing you."
Whoosh!
The energy whispered as both of them moved simultaneously at the moment Wang Weiyang set down his cup.
Bang!
A muffled sound erupted as the cup wobbled a few times before finally settling down. Both retreated five paces and stared at each other.
This clash was certainly powerful, but there was no overwhelming energy released. This was because both were cautious and restrained their Martial Origin Power during their strikes to gauge each other's strength.
"More and more interesting." After a brief silence, Wang Weiyang spoke first. During their earlier exchange, he sensed that Ye Tian's Martial Sovereign cultivation was at the late stage of a Second-Stage Martial Artist, but his overall strength was definitely beyond that level.
"More and more boring." Ye Tian replied with a faint smile. After testing the waters, he had a rough understanding of Wang Weiyang's strength. This person’s Martial Origin Power was much more vigorous than his own, likely at the Late Stage of Fourth Rank Martial Master, but there were no other powers mixed in.
Of course, this was not the reason for Ye Tian's mockery. He had already determined that Wang Weiyang possessed the Blood Sect Evil Canon, which is fundamentally based on the Blood Exchange and Marrow Transformation Classic. The Blood Exchange and Marrow Transformation Classic is a peculiar technique that can significantly enhance one's strength for a certain period, but it requires activation.
Therefore, Wang Weiyang only activating his Martial Origin Power did not indicate much; on the contrary, he still had a trump card left.
"Is that so?" Wang Weiyang naturally knew that Ye Tian's mockery was intended to throw him off balance. As an expert in this field, he would not easily fall into such a trap. After asking back, he smiled darkly and said, "Do you want a fair duel or..."
"No need; everyone present can come at me all at once. I’ll take them down one by one." Ye Tian interrupted Wang Weiyang with a wave of his hand. Interrupting someone while they are speaking is an extremely rude act and can easily provoke the other party. However, this was not the time for casual conversation; Ye Tian aimed to anger Wang Weiyang.
"Hahaha! That sounds great; I'll go have a few drinks first." With that, Wang Weiyang turned around and took his seat again, but instead of using the previous cup, he picked up the wine jug and drank directly.
Seeing this, Ye Tian frowned slightly. The former's reaction surprised him; he had thought that his earlier words would infuriate Wang Weiyang since he was an arrogant person. However, Ye Tian was mistaken. While Wang Weiyang was indeed arrogant, in his eyes, someone who could not match his strength did not deserve to provoke his prideful anger.
In simple terms, after their earlier test, Wang Weiyang had already deemed Ye Tian no longer a threat.
The scene fell silent for a moment before Wang Tianba loudly issued orders along with the sound of breaking air from the Fourteen Stewards.
"Kill him! Only after killing him will the Cold Family be completely eradicated!"
