BXBX NOVEL Chapter 616: 617 I Want to Be a Good Person
Death to the father if not to the son, no matter how one hears this, it grates on the ears. One really wonders what the Family Head of the Situ Household on the high platform would think if he knew.
It wasn’t just him; all the clan juniors who were confined with him were also pupils constricted, looking absolutely horrified, staring blankly at the person in front of them as if seeing him for the first time.
“Brother Situ, what did you just say?”
“Heaven and earth as my witness, all of this was my father’s directive. He is both my father and the Family Head, I simply have no room to argue and could only comply!”
“Not to hide from the third in command, I’ve long found this old thing displeasing to my eyes. For the sake of personal gain, disregarding the well-being of all, utterly blinded by greed, selfish to the extreme. It is a blessing for the world that you’re willing to carry out the execution.”
“I beg you to consider my willingness to mend my ways, and spare me this time.”
“I had no choice before, now, I want to be a good person!”
Situ Guixiong went all out, screaming as if he had gone mad!
At this moment, the only thing on his mind was to survive. As long as he lived, surpassing his old man was just a matter of time with his talents. He would still be one of the overlords of the Immortal Spirit Continent, living freely and happily!
“You vile spawn!”
“Without the Situ Family, how could you have your today, do you think you got to where you are today by yourself?”
“To utter such inhuman words, the Situ Family doesn’t have a descendant like you!”
Below the high platform, the Family Head of the Situ Household, suppressed on the ground, felt his vision go dark with anger. He could have never imagined that at such a life and death moment, before the Family Head beside him started any scheming, it was his own son who stabbed him in the back first.
If he could survive today and return, he would personally execute that unfilial son!
“Dad, this is your fault, you should just admit it!”
“I am the hope of the Situ Family; I cannot die. As long as Dad takes all the blame, your son can live!”
“Rest assured, I will not forget your kindness!”
Situ Guixiong’s face was ferocious, his eyes bloodshot, and he howled.
“Unfilial son!”
“Truly unfilial!”
Situ Guixiong felt a buzzing in his brain, his internal energy chaotic, nearly losing control.
“This child is beyond redemption.”
Below, Long Xue also shook her head and sighed. She had recovered from the despair of her own defeat, and now seeing Situ Guixiong’s true nature fully revealed, she realized he was no longer worthy of being called human.
Two silhouettes stood beside her, the Protectors.
“Miss, the strength of your prospective husband has been tested, it’s time to return.”
“Yes, what follows is the internal conflict of Aolai Country. We are ultimately outsiders; it’s inappropriate for us to intervene or even to watch. The old man has already arranged the next steps, we just need to wait for the groom-to-be to visit our doorstep.”
The two Great Crossing Realm Experts advised.
Being involved in the dispute of a Half-step Human Immortal, they too had no assurance. If by any chance Long Xue was affected, even ten heads would not be enough for them to lose.
“So be it, let’s return to the clan and report back first.”
Long Xue nodded, looking deeply into Li Xiaobai’s eyes before vanishing on the spot with the aid of two Protectors.
On the stage, Master Rong’s expression turned even colder. Situ Guixiong’s words had also shattered her worldview. In her wildest dreams, she hadn’t expected such an unfaithful, unfilial, inhumane, and unjust person to have grown up within her home, Aolai Country.
What a disgrace!
“I’ve already said that the truth can be found by searching the soul. If you refuse to accept this, I can search your father’s soul first and then search yours,”
Master Rong said indifferently.
The Situ Family is the principal culprit; no matter what, they cannot escape this fate.
Upon hearing this, Situ Guixiong’s body seemed to lose all its strength as he collapsed, understanding that neither he nor his father would likely escape disaster today.
The other disciples remained silent too. The third family head’s aura was oppressive, but the words of the Young Master of the Situ Family were truly chilling—using his own father as a human shield without batting an eye. Such behavior was nothing short of devilish.
“Sister, bring these family heads back to the Punishment Hall’s Celestial Prison and lock them up,”
Master Rong instructed, gazing into the void.
“That’s right, let the whole world witness today that anyone in Aolai Country who engages in vile and despicable acts will face this end!”
Huahuo’s expression was calm as she moved with an effortless authority. Empowered with Primodial Spirit Power, she pressed down into the void with both hands, sweeping boundless Spiritual Power to firmly restrain all the family heads.
“Senior Qi, Senior Qi!”
“Why aren’t you moving?”
“As long as you can delay until the experts from the other Two Sects arrive, it will be our victory!”
Elder Su’s eyes showed panic as he incessantly urged the motionless person in the black robe beside him, promising all sorts of benefits.
“Yes, if you can save our lives, old one, we won’t negotiate terms. All the resources of our clans will be offered up!”
“And Li Xiaobai is right below. If you can stop the two family heads, all of this will be yours, including the secret recipe that can enhance cultivation level and intelligence. If you can get it, the Three Sects will surely prosper!”
The other family heads also hastily spoke. Facing the onslaught of a Half-step Human Immortal, they had no power to resist.
“Situ, the great surprise you mentioned, is it Young Master Li?”
The person in the black robe suddenly asked.
“Yes, perhaps you aren’t aware, but this youngster harbors a great secret. Despite his young age, he has already reached the Mahayana Realm, and he holds the recipes for Tangneng First-class and premium goods. If we can search his soul…”
Patriarch Situ spoke, his eyes blood-red, his voice hoarse; something seemed off about this ancestor, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.
“You didn’t give me the details before coming here.”
“That’s why it’s a grand gift. I was also afraid of leaking the information…”
Patriarch Situ tried to explain further, but the person in the black robe suddenly stood up, cutting him off impatiently: “You really know how to cause trouble.”
Then, under the puzzled gazes of the onlookers, he removed his broad black robe and slowly walked toward the stage.
This was an old man with white hair, somewhat overweight, with smooth skin that lacked many wrinkles, giving off an air of wealth and contentment.
Master Rong’s gaze became more vigilant by the second, ready to fight to the death at the slightest sign of trouble from the elderly man.
Huahuo, floating in the void, was also focused on the old man’s every move, her grip involuntarily tightening, causing bones of some weaker family heads to break, eliciting bursts of agonizing screams.
Li Xiaobai, however, was unconcerned, smilingly recognizing the familiar figure: “It turns out to be Senior Qi, back from the frontier. Good to see you’re unharmed!”
