Chapter 1136: Chapter 708: Xuanyuan’s Request
The current four major families are absolutely incomparable to the original four major families.
Whether it is from the current situation and condition of the four major families or from the freedom of the heads of the four major families, they are far from what they used to be.
In the past, each of the four major families held nearly a trillion terrifying funds, and even the eight major families famous throughout Hua Country could do nothing about them. It can be said, that they were absolute lords over their own territories, no other forces dared to provoke them easily.
However, compared to the past, the four major families have now chosen to submit. Although on the surface, the assets of the four major families still belong to their own management, what’s different now is that their assets have actually been completely transferred under the control of the Liuli Sect. Even many key positions have been held by people appointed by Chu Mo. As time goes by, the control of the four major families over their own industries is getting weaker and weaker.
What’s even more powerless is that even though the assets of the four major families are being gradually devoured, the four Family Heads, who are the helms of the four major families, have not only shown no resistance, but instead willingly chose to submit.
Originally, these heirs thought that once Liu Ping, the former helmsman, died, they would regain control over their assets and take back what originally belonged to them. After all, the reason why the four major families chose to submit was their fear of the terrifying strength of old man Liu.
Naturally, under such circumstances, once that old man was gone, it would be time for the four major families to regain power. As for that girl called Liu Liu, nobody really cared about her.
But now, the situation suddenly underwent an irreversible change. Liu Ping is dead, but the backing of the Liu family, Mr. Chu from the capital, has transformed, directly becoming a legendary Celestial God-level powerhouse. Even the strongest Family Head of the Northwest Hua family, Hua Zhenyu, had to pledge loyalty to Mr. Chu before finally breaking through to the position of a Great Grandmaster.
Previously, a single Liu Ping was enough to oppress the four major families and force them to submit. Now facing a Celestial God-level supreme powerhouse, it can be said that the four major families have completely lost any room to resist. Other than choosing to submit, they no longer have any other options.
That’s why, eventually, Wei Ran, the most outstanding second-generation heir of the Wei family, after meticulous deliberation, finally chose to submit.
Previously, it was a waste of energy to compete with other heirs and eventually take over an empty shell-like Southwest Wei family. It’s better to let go and give it a try, directly pledging loyalty to Miss Liu Liu. In this way, not only could he become a loyal servant of the Liu family, but he could also gain the favor of a Half-step Celestial God powerhouse, and might ultimately carve out a vast scope for himself.
At this moment, precisely because of such determination and perseverance, Wei Ran gritted his teeth, and under the terrifying pressure from the opponent, he has persisted until now.
Although Tianya has not advanced to a true Celestial God realm, as a Half-step Celestial God, the Innate True Qi within him has gradually transformed into Spiritual Energy. Spiritual Energy and Innate True Qi are simply not on the same level, being completely incomparable. Once Tianya, as a Half-step Celestial God, releases his pressure, within ten steps, even a true Great Grandmaster doesn’t stand a chance to resist, let alone ordinary Grandmasters who would likely fall back under the immense pressure.
And those with strength lower than a Grandmaster, absolutely cannot survive under this immense pressure.
As for someone like Wei Ran, who hasn’t even reached Grandmaster, merely a half-step to Grandmaster, if Tianya, as a Celestial God realm powerhouse, truly unleashes his full pressure, he wouldn’t even be able to last the blink of an eye, probably being directly slain by the terrifying pressure.
Therefore, the reason why Wei Ran has been able to hold on until now is not because his perseverance is so firm, but merely because Tianya in front of him has not fully unleashed his pressure.
At this time, Tianya only released a small amount of his pressure, merely to test Wei Ran’s limit, which was just enough to keep Wei Ran on the verge of collapse.
As time passed, seeing that the young man opposite him hadn’t immediately collapsed, although blood had begun to trickle from the corners of his mouth, Tianya had no intention of stopping.
As a Half-step Celestial God powerhouse, Tianya has never taken a disciple in his life. Most of his time was spent in solitary cultivation, rarely interacting with others, and naturally, only Grandmaster level or above warriors could enter his eyes. As for those outstanding young generations, they could hardly even see Tianya.
And this time, Tianya is about to enter life-death seclusion, with a high chance that he might not come out again after this seclusion. Hence, he suddenly very much wanted to leave a legacy behind, and at the same time, repay Liu Ping’s kindness, settling his last lingering affection.
It is precisely because of this, Tianya cares greatly about this trial, unwilling to casually select someone lacking perseverance as his successor. Naturally, he seriously scrutinizes Wei Ran in front of him.
Under the immense oppressive pressure, not only did Wei Ran’s mouth bleed, but his entire being was on the verge of collapse. If not for the last bit of persistence in his heart that kept him going, Wei Ran would probably have fallen to the ground by now.
