C359 Two Paths

"En! Failure. I can only say that I am inferior to Qin Yuan." Zheng Xiang replied.

Before entering this place, Zheng Xiang was a member of the Essence Sect, and Qin Yuan was a Sect Master. However, he was not here.

In this place, Zheng Xiang was no longer a disciple of the Essence Sect, and Qin Yuan was not his Sect Master either.

In this place, the two of them were enemies. In this place, they were rivals, and in this place, they were competitors.

"You go first." Qin Yuan was the first to speak.

"Thank you." Zheng Xiang smiled.

Zheng Xiang knew that this was Qin Yuan giving in to him.

If he really obtained the recognition of the Heavenly Martial Embryo, then Qin Yuan's trip here would be in vain.

In other words, Qin Yuan was trying to become Zheng Xiang.

Zheng Xiang took a step forward and slowly extended his right hand to touch the Heavenly Martial Embryo.

Buzz!

When Zheng Xiang's hand touched the Heavenly Martial Embryo, it trembled slightly, and its body released a strong light that enveloped Zheng Xiang.

Then, under Qin Yuan's gaze, Zheng Xiang closed his eyes. His face was calm, as if he was enjoying it.

"Aren't you afraid that Zheng Xiang will succeed and the Heavenly Martial Embryo will acknowledge him as its master?" Feng looked at Zheng Xiang, who was enjoying it, and said to Qin Yuan.

"I'm not afraid." Qin Yuan shook his head. "Because I'm confident that the Heavenly Martial Embryo belongs to me."

"It's mine. No one can take it away from me!"

Qin Yuan's eyes released a strong nine color lights. A supreme Qi rippled out from Qin Yuan's body.

"Hmm?" When the supreme Qi rushed into Feng's body, Feng instantly frowned.

This was because he could sense that this aura was different from the other Immortal Venerables.

He had also come from the Immortal Venerable Stage, so he was crystal clear about the Qi of an Immortal Venerable. However, Qin Yuan's Qi was definitely not an ordinary Qi.

Feng could faintly feel that this Qi was comparable to his master.

The moment this thought emerged in his mind, Feng was startled.

How could this be possible?

Qin Yuan had just broken through to the Immortal Venerable realm and was a First Layer. Even with the help of the Essence Realm, he had only reached the peak of the Quasi-sage, just like Feng Feng.

However, his master was a Great Luo Saint amongst the three realms of the Saint realm. He was a peerless existence even amongst the Great Luo Saint.

However, this was what he felt.

Furthermore, Feng also felt that this supreme aura wasn't the aura of an Immortal Venerable, but a supreme aura that looked down upon all living beings.

In short, Qin Yuan had become mysterious in his eyes.

Whether it was this supreme Qi or the nine color lights on his body.

Without saying anything else, he stared at Zheng Xiang.

Buzz!

Time flew by. After an unknown period of time, the Heavenly Martial Embryo trembled once again. The light that had enveloped Zheng Xiang disappeared in an instant, revealing Zheng Xiang's figure.

Hu!

Zheng Xiang exhaled a breath of white air. However, judging from the disappointment in his eyes, it was obvious that Qin Yuan had failed.

"It's your turn." Zheng Xiang was also an open-minded person. He stepped back and said to Qin Yuan.

"Okay." Qin Yuan nodded. He walked past Zheng Xiang and patted him on the shoulder. He looked encouraging.

"The Heavenly Martial Embryo is just a support. The most important thing is still yourself. Strength is the foundation."

"En! Your own strength truly belongs to you." Zheng Xiang nodded his head and said.

Da!

Qin Yuan took a step forward and arrived in front of the Heavenly Martial Embryo.

Just like Zheng Xiang, he stretched out his right hand and began "intimate" with the Heavenly Martial Embryo.

Buzz!

The Heavenly Martial Embryo trembled once again. Just like before, a strong light enveloped Qin Yuan.

Hong family.

Hong Shan and the others who were discussing suddenly stopped because a person had appeared out of nowhere.

This person was Hong Lai, who had rushed back from Eastern Continent after a long journey.

Hong Lai looked around with a gloomy expression. He stretched out his hand and grabbed a chair to sit on.

"Old patriarch!" Seeing Hong Lai's appearance, the expressions of the people who were sitting on the chairs suddenly changed. They stood up and said respectfully.

The old patriarch had actually appeared.

There was only one possibility for him to appear, and that was to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm. However, he should be happy about it.

However, why was the old patriarch's face gloomy? Clearly, he was dissatisfied in his heart.

"Father, you've come out of seclusion." Hong Shan was slightly startled. Hong Lai's appearance had caught him by surprise. He didn't know why his dad would appear here.

However, no matter what, Hong Lai was still his dad. He still had to do what he needed to do.

Hong Shan quickly stood up and ran to Hong Lai's side, saying respectfully.

"You guys go out first!" Hong Lai waved his hand and ordered the people in the hall.

"Yes." The people of Hong family replied.

They knew that this was a private matter between the father and son, and they had no right to interfere.

"You also know that I'm still your father!" When everyone left, Hong Lai looked at Hong Shan with a mocking gaze.

"Uh!" Hong Shan was stunned. He did not know why he had made his father so unhappy.

"Dad, what did I do wrong? If you can change it, I will try my best to change it!" Hong Shan said seriously.

"Let me ask you, what's your surname?" Hong Lai stared at Hong Shan and said in a deep voice.

"Hong!" Hong Shan did not think and quickly replied, "Dad, why are you asking this!"

"Surnamed Hong? Hmph!" Hong Lai revealed a look of disdain, "Then let me ask you again, where did my Hong family come from and who did I come with?"

"They came from Immortal World!" Hong Shan replied.

"Is the Hong family one of the ancient times family?"

"Yes. Currently the leader of the nine ancient times family. "

"He is now the leader of the ancient times family. You can say that too." Hong Lai mocked him.

"If it wasn't for the ancient war, if it wasn't for what you did back then, would the Hong family have become the leader of the ancient times family? Hmph! "

"If it wasn't for my ruthlessness back then, would the Hong family have developed so quickly? Can we have so many Immortal Lord warriors? " Hong Shan's expression turned serious as he spoke in a deep voice.

"I order Hong family to not have the current strength." Hong Lai said in a cold voice.

"Now, I will give you two choices. Join the Essence Sect and become a part of it."

"Of course, you can refuse. However, in order for the Hong family to stay in the universe for a long period of time, I can only force you to abdicate and give up your position. I will personally lead the entire Hong family."

"Dad, are you trying to make me abdicate?" Hong Shan looked at Hong Lai coldly.

It was as if Hong Lai was not his father, but his enemy.

"Yes." Hong Lai's eyes were fixed on Hong Shan, "If you still want to continue being the patriarch, do as I say and submit to the Essence Sect."

"Submit to the Essence Sect? That's impossible." Hong Shan returned to his seat and looked down at Hong Lai.

"What virtues and abilities does the Essence Sect have to make the entire Hong family submit to them? And what qualifications does Qin Yuan have to become a Sect Master of the Essence Sect?"

"Qin Yuan is the person chosen by our master, the person we are waiting for..."
