Chapter 21

"Damn it, when there were benefits to be had, they all came running, but now that there's trouble, they run faster than rabbits." Ye Gang angrily cursed.

"Everyone, pack up. We'll pack lightly." Ye Tongtian, supported by family members, limped into the house.

"Ye Tongtian won't let this rest. With Ye Shan and Ye Handong, the three of them will likely join forces. However, we're not afraid of them coming. If they do, it will give us a reason to deal with them. But we still need to be on guard." Ye Jun Tian said.

"Hmm, but tomorrow, you must take the lead in the ranking competition. You need to show Ye Tianhao your strength. If you can enter the second round and perform outstandingly in the competition against the existing Wood-level disciples, Ye Tianhao will come running.

Because you are exactly 15 years old, you are a qualified Ye family disciple for this city lord selection competition. At that time, Ye Tianhao will rely on you to help him win the position of city lord. Although you only represent one of the six people.

However, the selection of each disciple must be extremely cautious for Ye Tianhao. Because he can't afford to lose. If he fails to reclaim the throne this time, what credibility will his clan leader have?

Among the disciples aged 15 and under, you should be able to take first place. Being part of the six-person team for the city lord selection competition is a sure thing." Ye Qingshao said.

Upon arriving at the manor, Ye Jun Tian went to see his younger brother Ye Jun. He found that his brother's entire body was swollen, his face swollen to the size of a basin. A quick examination revealed that his internal organs were in terrible condition.

About half of his meridians were severed, and the damage was catastrophic, with inch-long breaks. His heart, liver, and other organs were covered in fine, web-like cracks.

His breathing was extremely weak, as if he could die at any moment. However, the Taixuan Continent had no oxygen equipment, and Ye Jun's life was in grave danger.

"That old man actually used the mid-tier Heavenly Rank martial technique 'Golden Diamond Palm' bought from the market. He probably withheld some of his strength. Otherwise, your brother would have been shattered completely." Ye Qingshao said with a sad expression.

"Is there really no way to save him? If we can't in Qingmu City, we'll go to Qingzhou for medical help. If not in Qingzhou, we'll go to the capital." Ye Jun Tian was particularly calm at this moment.

"Ye Jun can't be moved at all. He can't withstand the journey to Qingzhou; it would be like directly killing your brother. Doctor Yang said he absolutely cannot be moved. Even for defecation and urination, extra care must be taken. Otherwise, a single jolt could cause him to fall apart." Ye Qingshao said.

"I'll go and beg Uncle Tian!" Ye Jun Tian turned and rushed out.

"Sigh... I hope he will help..." Ye Qingshao sighed. Uncle Tian was a high-level expert with a unique personality. It was already a great favor for him to help Ye Jun Tian. Despite his anxiety, Ye Qingshao didn't dare to make the request.

Ye Jun Tian ran to the old house and knelt down with a thud, saying, "Uncle Tian, please save my brother Ye Jun!"

"I can't save him." Uncle Tian took a puff of his pipe, his expression indifferent.

"How can you, a great expert, not be able to save him? Didn't I hear that a Heavenly Rank expert can use 'Blood Essence' with some medicine to repair damaged organs?" Ye Jun Tian asked.

At the Human Martial Realm, blood consciousness awakens, and blood energy can be released to injure from a distance of several dozen meters.

At the Earth Martial Realm, blood energy is refined into 'Gang' and can be released to injure from a distance of over a hundred meters, with the same effect as a physical blow.

At the Heavenly Martial Realm, blood Gang condenses into Blood Essence, and with the support of blood soul, Blood Essence energy overflows, achieving the dream of 'flight.' Heavenly Martial experts are true martial cultivation experts because they transcend the physical limits of ordinary people, becoming strong flyers.

Of course, the flight height and distance of Heavenly Martial experts are limited. They can only be said to have initial flight capabilities. But for ordinary people, this is a significant leap.

"I saw his injuries when they happened, and I couldn't save him." Uncle Tian said.

"Uncle Tian, why didn't you save my brother when you saw him injured?" Ye Jun Tian's tone unconsciously became angry.

"Am I your family's 'bodyguard'? Boy, don't push your luck." Uncle Tian's face turned stern, and he sneered.

"You won't save my brother, but why did you save me? Why?" Ye Jun Tian's face was filled with killing intent.

"At that moment, I was in a good mood. Get lost!" Uncle Tian was angry. With a burst of Blood Gang, he threw Ye Jun Tian out of the yard. "Don't come back, or I'll break your legs!"

"Old man, you're a cold-blooded animal. From now on, I won't come back, and I won't beg you. Old thing!" Ye Jun Tian's heart was filled with 'sadness' and 'anger.'

That anger wasn't directed at Uncle Tian. Uncle Tian was right; he had no obligation to save Ye Jun. It was already a favor for him to save himself. That sentence was very 'arrogant,' a characteristic of a strong person.

Ye Jun Tian didn't even ride a horse; he ran several miles, and then found a forest and dove into it.

Tiger Fist, Stone-Crushing Palm, Ground Rolling Leg—every boxing and leg technique he had learned, he unleashed on the trees, venting his frustration. The forest echoed with the sound of chaos, and the birds, frightened, flew into the sky, angrily screeching at Ye Jun Tian, the bird hater.

In Ye Jun Tian's mind, Uncle Tian's last words kept echoing: "At that moment, I was in a good mood."

In China, it's "If you have money, you can be任性 (reckless)." Here, it's "If you are strong, you can be reckless."

"I will become strong, stronger, and even stronger! Uncle Tian, one day, I will also be reckless!" Ye Jun Tian was extremely angry. He swallowed a low-grade Blood Replenishing Pill and, under the surge of blood energy, he continued to pummel the trees and rocks while roaring to the sky. Through his透视 (penetrating vision), he noticed that the 'black hole' in his stomach seemed to become agitated, and it was spinning.

Finally, he reached the peak of madness.

His eyes twitched, and a tremendous pain spread from the 'black hole' to his eyes. With a loud boom, Ye Jun Tian discovered a new meridian. It was very strange; the meridian route started from the black hole in his stomach, passed through his heart, and finally reached his eyes.

This was a direct 'channel' connecting the black hole to his eyes.

His eyes began to twitch violently. In the next moment, Ye Jun Tian opened his mouth wide. Because he saw an additional eyeball in his eye.

This eyeball was only a fraction of the size of a speck of dust, enclosed within his original eyeball. It was called the inner pupil. He felt as if he had suddenly become a person with double pupils.

Having 'double pupils' is also a talent, and it has appeared on the Taixuan Continent before. People with double pupils have twice the perception ability of those with single pupils. Because they have two eyes, while you have four, they can see farther, higher, and more clearly.

Ye Jun Tian tried to move the inner pupil. With a slight turn, he looked around. Within a mile, everything was in his sight.

Moreover, Ye Jun Tian was shocked to find that his originally blurry透视 (penetrating vision) had become twice as clear. He could see the sap flowing in the tree trunks clearly.

He could see the finest hairs on a small caterpillar thirty meters away, in great detail. However, the farther he tried to see, the blurrier it became. It was clear that his current透视 (penetrating vision) range was about thirty meters.

Could it be because of the second inner pupil that appeared mysteriously, and it and the first inner pupil worked like a zoom lens, providing a 2x zoom capability? Therefore, it could bring distant objects closer, making them clearer.

What the hell is this thing? It's damn frustrating!

Ye Jun Tian lay in a cool 'X' shape in the grass, gazing at the sky. At this moment, his ears were particularly clear, and he could hear a small insect 'whispering' dozens of meters away.

At this moment, Ye Jun Tian suddenly sprang up and darted to the side.
