Ch. 343The Green Mountain Holy Son's Dual Identity!
Key plot points and events
- Ye Tian confronts the shadowy figure behind the trouble at the Su Family. The enemy, Tian Zheng, recognizes Ye Tian’s exceptional physique and sees through the rumors that he has an ordinary one.
- Ye Tian reveals that Tian Zheng has a second identity: he is the Green Mountain Holy Son, while also serving as a Hunter from the Life Forbidden Zone—a force that targets promising prodigies.
- Tian Zheng admits that Ye Tian has uncovered his secrets and acknowledges the Green Mountain Sacred Land’s infiltration by the Forbidden Zone. The land’s leaders and disciples have been corrupted by dark power.
- Ye Tian recalls that Tian Zheng created the “human bomb” Su Ming. Though the blood-extinction gu gave Su Ming formidable strength, his recklessness led to his complete destruction.
- The two agree that their personal duel is only a small part of a larger conflict between the Eternal Ye Family and Outer Chaos. Ye Tian refuses further discussion and attacks Tian Zheng with a devastating purple beam.
Character developments and interactions

He resolves to eliminate the Forbidden Zone’s infiltrators and believes the Eternal Heavenly Court has the power to destroy the Green Mountain Sacred Land.
- Tian Zheng is exposed as both a respected sacred-land Holy Son and a Forbidden Zone Hunter. Though he recognizes Ye Tian’s abilities, he accepts that their confrontation must end in one of their deaths.
- Huang Ruoxi and Su Qinglian realize the shocking truth about Tian Zheng. Huang Ruoxi is especially impressed by Ye Tian’s rapidly growing strength, recognizing that she could not match him.
- The Su Family disciples watch in confusion and awe as the hidden identities and immense power of the two adversaries are revealed.
