"Alright. Make the arrangements for the Divine Son's affairs tomorrow."
Di Ba spoke from the seat of honor.
After all the elders had left, Di Ba swept his hand, and streams of Chaos Qi appeared.
Immediately afterward, a great formation enveloped the two of them.
Di Ba looked at his son, his gaze complicated and filled more than anything with guilt.
Di Tian had been born with demonic qi.
Though it had been sealed by Di Ba, it would gradually awaken as he cultivated.
Di Ba had already prepared himself to become enemies with the entire Divine Domain if that was what it took to protect his son.
But now, the Di Tian before him seemed like a completely different person.
A suspicion rose in Di Ba's heart.
"Tian'er, you..."
Even with Di Ba's immense strength and noble status, his body trembled slightly at this moment.
At this moment, he was only a father.
A smile appeared on Di Tian's lips. Looking at Di Ba, he felt a sense of warmth.
In his previous life, he had been an orphan. By the age of thirty, he had built a fortune worth hundreds of millions through his own abilities, yet he had never known a parent's love.
"Father, I'm fine now. I can control the demonic qi in my body."
Hearing Di Tian's words, Di Ba's body shuddered.
Then he burst into laughter.
"Ha ha ha! Good, good!"
After hearing Di Tian's words, Di Ba felt a weight lift from his heart.
"With you like this, I can finally rest easy. Your mother will return tomorrow as well. When the time comes, let her be happy too."
Di Tian nodded.
"By the way, that girl from the Ye Family whose engagement you broke off has returned against the heavens. The Supreme Bone within her is even stronger than before. What do you plan to do?"
"Should the Lineage make a move and destroy them directly?"
Di Tian was left speechless by Di Ba's words. As expected of his father, the head of the Di Family.
"Father, leave this matter to me. You don't need to interfere. I'll handle it."
"Alright, then. Tell me anytime if there's a problem."
"Understood, Father."
Di Tian walked toward the outside.
"Father, Mother."
A gentle smile appeared on Di Tian's lips.
"I don't want this life to be disturbed. You Children of Fortune really are annoying."
"So what if I'm a villain? To preserve this familial love, all of you blessed with fortune can go to hell!"
"In this life, I will be the one who holds the chessboard!"
Early the next morning, the entire Di Family sprang into action.
After all, today was their Divine Son's coming-of-age ceremony. To the entire Di Family, it was an earth-shaking occasion.
At this moment, a voice rang out through the Di Family.
"The Shangguan Family has arrived!"
As the Di Family's in-laws, the Shangguan Family naturally arrived first.
The Di Family's Great Elder looked at the Shangguan Family's Great Elder and spoke.
"You old bastard, you haven't crawled into your grave yet?"
"You old bastard, aren't you still alive too?"
The two looked at each other and both burst into laughter.
"The Great Cloud Divine Dynasty has arrived!"
When the Great Cloud Divine Dynasty's prince saw that the Shangguan Family had arrived, he froze. He had thought the Great Cloud Divine Dynasty would be the first to arrive.
"The Shocking God Hall and Heaven Suppressing Hall have arrived!"
Upon hearing that announcement—
Everyone was stunned. These two factions had long harbored grudges against each other.
Sure enough, the Great Elders of the two factions exchanged a glance, each seeing killing intent in the other's eyes.
But upon seeing the Di Family elders, all that killing intent was withdrawn.
Though the forces behind these people were powerful, they still did not dare act recklessly before the Di Family.
Only these overlord forces of the Divine Domain knew just how terrifying the Di Family truly was.
"The Misty Sect and Boundless Sect have arrived!"
"The Gu Family, Mo Family, and Nangong Family have arrived!"
"The Ye Family has arrived!"
At that moment, another announcement rang out, and everyone who had come to the Di Family was taken aback.
A trace of amusement appeared on their lips.
After all, the matter between the Di Family and the Ye Family had caused an uproar throughout the Divine Domain back then.
The Ye Family's dignity had practically been ground into the dirt beneath the Di Family Divine Son's feet.
Though the Di Family had also offered compensation—
Could something like one's dignity truly be recovered once it was lost?
They had heard that the Ye Family's young prodigy had returned against the heavens.
They had come today to watch the Di Family Divine Son's coming-of-age ceremony.
That was one of their purposes in coming.
To watch the clash between the two prodigies!
That was what interested them the most!
They also wanted to see just what the Di Family's Divine Son, said to possess the bearing of a heavenly being, was truly like.
The Ye Family's Great Elder had the air of an immortal sage. Looking at the Di Family elders with a peaceful expression, he acted as if there were no rift between the two families.
One look, and it was clear he was an old hand.
Everyone's gazes involuntarily turned toward the woman behind the Ye Family's Great Elder.
Her shoulders seemed carved from jade, her waist slender as silk, her brows like kingfisher feathers, her skin white as snow.
Dressed in purple, she perfectly outlined her waist, so slender it seemed one hand could encircle it.
Many young disciples brought by the various families and factions revealed greedy looks upon seeing her, wearing expressions like leering pigs.
Quite a few people also noticed the young figure beside the Ye Family's young princess.
He wore no extravagant clothes, and his appearance was not especially outstanding.
Yet the aura around him was actually no weaker than that of the Ye Family's young princess.
There was even an eerie, convincing magnetic field around that young figure.
It was as though anything he set out to do, he could accomplish.
The leaders of those factions—
Exchanged glances, each seeing the surprise in the other's eyes.
Chu Fan, floating in the sky, looked at Ye Liuli beside him with affection in his eyes.
Ye Liuli was especially mesmerizing today, even more so than usual.
"Very soon, you'll be mine. Today, I'll trample that Di Family Divine Son who humiliated you beneath my feet!"
"I, Chu Fan, am the one most worthy of you!"
At that thought, Chu Fan's lips curved into a confident smile.
Quite a few young women revealed looks of admiration when they saw Chu Fan.
This made Chu Fan even more smug, and he unconsciously straightened his back a little further.
"The Cloud Top Heavenly Palace has arrived!"
Hearing that announcement, everyone was stunned.
Though this faction was not particularly powerful and had yet to reach the level of an overlord force, it surpassed many first-rate factions and could be considered a half-step overlord force.
Most importantly, it was a faction founded by Di Tian's mother, the previous generation's Divine Maiden of the Shangguan Family!
"The Vice Headmaster of Heavenly Mountain Academy has arrived!"
After hearing that announcement, everyone was stunned and revealed astonished expressions.
Heavenly Mountain Academy was extremely renowned in the Divine Domain. Many overlord forces sent their own prodigies there.
Like the Di Family, it was an existence that had spanned eras.
They had never heard of Heavenly Mountain Academy attending any ceremony held by another faction!
The Di Family truly had enormous prestige!
"The Heavenly Dao Sect has arrived!"
When they heard the name Heavenly Dao Sect, many forces rose to their feet.
Who in the Divine Domain did not know of the Heavenly Dao Sect? They proclaimed themselves the spokesmen of the Heavenly Dao!
Though everyone in the Divine Domain thought this faction talked a big game, that did not change the fact that they were powerful. One of their ancestors had even suppressed an entire chaotic era.
And someone from the Di Family at the Saint Emperor Realm came out to personally lead the people of the Heavenly Dao Sect inside.
Afterward, several more first-rate and second-rate factions arrived. Ordinary Di Family stewards received and guided them.
This left those factions both flattered and alarmed, as though they had been shown tremendous respect.
