The Ethereal Domains

Chapter 989: Song Jue’s nephew?

Song Jue's nephew? . . .

In fact, Cha Eun Xiao found the situation involving the Song Clan to be a complex web of intrigue and family dynamics.

"Song Xuan! You finally showed some backbone!" Song Fei laughed with overwhelming arrogance. "I had assumed you would merely watch me torment these outsiders. I thought you'd tuck your tail between your legs and slink away. Haha, admirable courage!"

Listening to Song Fei's words, Cha Eun Xiao and his companions unraveled the true motive behind the young lord's actions. He had provoked Cha Eun Xiao and company solely to anger Song Xuan, who he must have glimpsed when passing by this location. Thus, he had turned back to bully Cha Eun Xiao and his friends, believing them to be an easy target. It was clear that Song Fei had no intention of genuinely offending Cha Eun Xiao.

However, even though the motive had been unveiled, Cha Eun Xiao and his friends couldn't help but find Song Fei's actions despicable. "Why not confront Song Xuan directly if you seek to provoke him?" Cha Eun Xiao wondered. "Why involve innocent bystanders? It's fortunate that he targeted us. Ordinary people would have been completely helpless against him."

Cha Eun Xiao shook his head, feeling that it didn't matter whether they were fortunate or not. It was Song Fei who had miscalculated. His actions had taken him down a perilous path.

Song Fei was undeniably unlucky. His level of misfortune had reached world-shattering proportions. The consequences of his actions were likely to bring ruin to his family's bloodline. His intent had been to humiliate a fellow clan member, but he had chosen to antagonize three individuals who were practically divine figures, making him the unfortunate one in this scenario.

Intriguingly, Xuan Bing had been unusually patient. It was evident that she wanted to understand the dynamics between the two young men and would likely intervene at some point. Once Xuan Bing grasped the full picture, Song Fei would undoubtedly face dire consequences, possibly even a fate worse than death.

Cha Eun Xiao pondered the situation further, realizing that Song Fei's actions might lead to a catastrophic outcome for the entire Song Clan. While Song Fei might deserve punishment, Song Clan was Song Jue's family. As things soured, he would have to step in and prevent the clan's destruction.

Yet, the challenge lay in restraining Xuan Bing. Cha Eun Xiao wondered whether he had the capacity to deter her from wreaking havoc. It was a daunting task, for Xuan Bing's fury was a force to be reckoned with.

The confrontation continued as Song Xuan spoke up, attempting to defuse the situation and protect Cha Eun Xiao and his companions. Clad in tattered clothes and carrying a basket of medicinal herbs, Song Xuan implored Song Fei to let them go.

Song Fei, perched high on his horse, scoffed and retorted, "Oh, Song Xuan. Are you suggesting that you're defending them? Haha. Then I should give them an even harsher beating! What, you think you can issue orders to me or tell me what to do? Remember, you're the reason they'll suffer! Keep that in mind!"

The disdain in Song Fei's words was palpable, and Cha Eun Xiao's group couldn't help but feel Song Fei's cruelty was boundless. "If you wish to infuriate your clan member, Song Xuan, why involve innocent people?" they collectively pondered.

"Are you trying to provoke Song Xuan by tormenting us?" Cha Eun Xiao wondered. "At least confront him directly if you want to anger him. Why subject outsiders to this ordeal? It's fortunate he targeted us. Ordinary people wouldn't stand a chance against him."

However, this situation was the least of Song Fei's concerns. He was riddled with bad luck, and his actions would spiral into a catastrophic outcome for his entire clan.

Xuan Bing, who had remained surprisingly patient, seemed intent on unraveling the true dynamic between the two young men. When she fully comprehended the situation, Song Fei would likely face severe consequences. Perhaps a single act of mercy would be to allow him to meet his demise.

Song Clan's future appeared bleak, and the impending turmoil seemed inevitable. Cha Eun Xiao feared that Song Jue would be compelled to intervene, but he had little confidence in his ability to restrain Xuan Bing.

Indeed, Cha Eun Xiao recognized that Song Xuan's past was marked by immense potential and promise within the Song Clan. He had been one of the most gifted individuals among the clan's cultivators, possessing remarkable potential and talents. Despite not being designated as the primary disciple, he had access to substantial cultivation resources.

By all accounts, he should have been a formidable force for the clan, given his exceptional talent. However, a series of unfortunate events transpired, beginning with a mistake made by Song Jue. This mistake had dire consequences, plunging the entire clan into a crisis. The group that Song Jue had once been part of found themselves on the weaker side, and ultimately, Song Jue was banished from the clan.

Song Xuan, despite his innate genius, could not singlehandedly rescue the group and elevate them to a more prominent status within the clan. Yet, he remained steadfast in his resolve. His ultimate dream was to restore his group to a position of prominence within the clan, a goal he tirelessly pursued.

Through diligent cultivation, Song Xuan made significant strides, emerging as one of the most powerful individuals among those of his generation. The clan began to recognize his value, and his group steadily improved. However, their aspirations were crushed three years prior when a tragic incident shattered the progress they had made.

During one fateful day, while Song Xuan was engrossed in his cultivation, he fell victim to a brutal assault by a masked assailant. This vicious and lightning-fast attacker not only severely beat Song Xuan but also aimed to end his life. In the ensuing confrontation, Song Xuan sustained significant injuries, and his inner energy was severely depleted. Despite a lengthy recovery, his future in cultivation appeared bleak.

In the wake of this incident, Song Xuan's group within the clan faced an increasingly disadvantaged position. Their economic circumstances became dire, bordering on the brink of destitution. The return of Song Jue, Song Xuan's uncle and a previous member of their group, sparked a glimmer of hope. However, Song Jue carried the label of a clan offender, and his abilities alone could not rectify the group's predicament.

As a result, the group that encompassed both Song Jue and Song Xuan had been subjected to relentless persecution within the clan, enduring hardships and injustices on a regular basis.
