Transcending the Nine Heavens

As Yuan Shutu spoke, Chu Yang connected the dots from these past few days of mental confusion and vigilance, suddenly realizing that the calamity of Tie Butian was likely upon them; how could they let Tie Butian come forward?

The guy in front of him was clearly not a good person, a living embodiment of a lustful ghost.

Did you see that person? He came to the door wanting to meet someone else's wife right away!?

Yuan Shutu's face stiffened, and he said coldly, "Does Chu brother think I am not worthy to meet your esteemed wife?" His heart was filled with impatience; how dare a mere ant like you refuse me?

Truly, he didn’t know how to seek death!

Chu Yang smiled lightly and said, "It's indeed inconvenient for the inner family to make an appearance."

While Chu Yang maintained a friendly demeanor, a murderous intent was already rising in his heart.

Yuan Shutu sneered, "With the friendship between us brothers, does little brother really want to meet your sister-in-law... and Chu brother still wants to push me away? That would be rather ungracious. Since that's the case, I shall let it go."

Chu Yang nodded and replied, "It really isn't very gracious, but I suppose it has to be this way just once. Since Brother Yuan himself said to let it go, I can finally breathe easy, haha..."

Yuan Shutu originally said this to pressure Chu Yang, but he did not expect Chu Yang to straightforwardly admit it without holding back. This turned the situation around, and even made flattering remarks that completely sealed off Yuan Shutu's words.

Yuan Shutu found himself at a disadvantage in words and was filled with rage, smiling darkly, "I assume your sister-in-law must be a national beauty and heavenly fragrance... No wonder Chu brother is so reluctant to let her appear; a beauty like that should be kept for oneself."

Chu Yang’s originally smiling face suddenly turned serious, his expression becoming as heavy as an impending storm. He slowly said, "Whether beautiful or not is unimportant; the key is that she is my woman. Even if she's not beautiful, in my heart, she is the most beautiful!"

Yuan Shutu sneered, "Chu brother is quite the sentimental person."

Chu Yang leaned back in his chair, reclining, and softly said, "It’s better to be sentimental than heartless."

Yuan Shutu slowly nodded and ominously said, "But what if I must see your esteemed wife today?"

If it were a normal request, it undoubtedly wouldn’t be granted; thus, Yuan Shutu's words were purely meant to provoke Chu Yang! As long as he was the first to erupt, he could continue to perform on the spot!

The cold glint in Chu Yang’s eyes was flickering as he smiled, "What if I absolutely won’t let you see her?"

Yuan Shutu's gaze turned cold, and he said indifferently, "Chu brother, we’re all men here; there’s no need to beat around the bush. Little brother has taken a liking to your sister-in-law, so if you have any conditions, feel free to name them."

"As long as Chu brother agrees, I guarantee that you will live a life of wealth and status at Nine Heavens Pavilion, and no one will dare to provoke you; additionally, I will gift you three high-level sect manuals and provide everything needed for cultivation, as well as introduce you to join the sect and meet renowned masters. Within ten years, you can reach the saint position, and within a hundred years, ascend to become a celestial being! How about that?"

Yuan Shutu spoke this long list of conditions in a condescending tone, as if he were bestowing a favor!

If it were anyone else, even those who had previously interacted with Yuan Shutu using the same methods, any one of those conditions would have been enough for them to offer up their wives; after all, in this world where the strong dominate, women are merely a distraction, and strength is the real capital!

But considering this was Eastern Sovereign Heaven, and Yuan Shutu was particularly fond of Chu Yang, he simply laid out conditions that he believed no one could refuse!

In his mind, Chu Yang’s next step would be to immediately kneel, overflowing with gratitude, and fully agree. Following that, he would embrace the beauty and return...
