Chapter 97: I Beat Up My Dad
Zhao Haiâs voice came from outside Jinâan Palace.
Shen Cangtian (Emperor Wu) walked quickly at the front, his face extremely grave.
The moment he entered the bedchamber, Shen Yian turned and their eyes met.
Shen Cangtianâs head buzzed, and before his eyes seemed to appear a vast grassland. He roared with eyes bulging in rage: âWho are you?!â@@novelbin@@
âYour Majesty?!â
Zhao Hai and the others who followed closely behind were startled by Shen Cangtianâs roar. Seeing Shen Yian, they were all dumbfounded.
Why was there such a young man of unparalleled bearing in the Noble Consortâs bedchamber?!
Zhao Hai had the sharpest eyes. For some reason, he felt the young manâs brow bore some resemblance to His Majesty.
Shen Cangtianâs fists clenched with a cracking sound, but his peripheral vision noticed the infantâs cradle was empty. His rage instantly shot to the heavens.
Shen Yian said coldly: âShe just turned the corner from danger, itâs not appropriate to disturb her. If you want to fight, letâs fight outside. Beat me, and Iâll tell you everything you want to know!â
There was something he had actually wanted to do for a long time.
âFine!â
Shen Cangtian growled, then turned to instruct: âZhao Hai, while Iâm gone, forbid anyone from approaching this place.â
âYes, Your Majesty!â
Zhao Haiâs eyes flashed fiercely. It was his first time seeing His Majesty so enraged. No matter who this young man was, today he absolutely could not leave the palace alive.
Seeing Shen Cangtian agree so readily, Shen Yian took a step and in the blink of an eye was already outside Jinâan Palace.
Such skill shocked those present once again.
âYour Majesty...â Zhao Hai wanted to speak up to remind him that this is the imperial palace, and there is no need for His Majesty to put himself in danger against such a master. It would be safest for everyone to surround and beat him up.
Before he could finish speaking, Shen Cangtian had already removed his dragon robe, revealing the tight-fitting clothes underneath, and strode into the rain.
Two figures flashed through the rain one after another, in the blink of an eye reaching the vast plaza before the Imperial Hall.
Waves of heat rolled off Shen Cangtianâs body, turning falling raindrops into wisps of white steam. Behind him appeared a great golden sun wheel, on which four golden crows flew tail-to-beak. Purple-gold flames intertwined on it, seeming to possess the power to burn the heavens and boil the seas.
The Shen Familyâs ultimate skill, the Eastern Emperor Scripture!
Shen Yian took a deep breath. Behind him appeared his own sun wheel, with golden flames intertwined with streaks of white flame.
Shen Cangtianâs pupils shook. He didnât continue to ask who the other was.
After all, they had agreed that if he won, the other would tell him the answer. Opening his mouth to ask now would just be a waste of breath and time!
The current Shen Cangtian was in the prime of his youth, with martial arts that reached the heavens. If thrown into the martial arts world, apart from those old monsters, no one of his age could match him.
But unfortunately, he had encountered Shen Yian, whose talent and strength were even more monstrous â and in Shen Yianâs dream, no less!
Shen Yian, at full power, pummeled Shen Cangtian from one side of the palace to the other, then back again. In the time it takes to burn half an incense stick, over half the palace was left battered and full of holes from their battle.
Shen Cangtian felt utterly frustrated. He wanted to fight back but found he had no chance to retaliate; his opponentâs speed was simply too fast.
The most humiliating part was that while the otherâs punches hurt, they didnât damage his internal organs. He felt like a human punching bag, constantly taking hits.
âEnough!â Shen Cangtian roared in mid-air.
Shen Yian pretended not to hear and punched out your front teeth with one blow.
âOuch, sorry old man, I didnât hold back enough,â Shen Yian said awkwardly, seeing the two bloody front teeth flying.
He had gotten too carried away and accidentally used too much force.
To be honest, fulfilling something he had always wanted to do felt incredibly satisfying from the inside out.
Although it was a dream, it felt very real. Beating up his own father in a dream shouldnât count as actually beating him up, right?
Shen Yian hesitated for a moment before quickly concluding that it definitely didnât count.
After all, it was just a dream. If he didnât say anything, who would know he had beaten up the old man in his dream?
âBoom!â
Shen Cangtian fell heavily to the ground, creating a large crater. He stared at the sky with lifeless eyes and he was too exhausted to resist anymore.
âGet up, letâs continue. Donât you want to know the answer?â Shen Yian landed with his hands behind his back and walked forward to enrage him.
âWho exactly are you?â Shen Cangtian asked through gritted teeth.
âWhat if I told you Iâm your son? Would you believe me?â Shen Yian raised an eyebrow and replied softly.
Shen Cangtian: â???â
âImpossible! Who are you really?!â
âItâs true. My name is Shen Yian, Iâm your sixth son.â
Shen Yian crouched down and blinked.
The name âShen Yianâ couldnât be wrong; he had personally named his Sixth Son that. Thinking of the empty cradle in Jinâan Palace, Shen Cangtian doubted his life even more.
âOld man, Iâm going to do something. If nothing goes wrong, four women will die. Will you hate me for the rest of your life?â
Shen Yian chuckled lightly, stood up, and looked towards Fengyi Palace.
âLong Yuan!â
