Talk About Bragging, How Do You Really Have The Qualifications Of The Great Emperor?

Chapter 36: Once I step down, you will be the head of the Thunder Lineage.

Alright!

Actually, it wasn't intentional, I just happened to overhear Ji Jinglei's words.

In fact...

Ji Yan had been secretly observing in Storm Tower for quite some time, but he didn't have the courage to show himself at first.

Why?

Naturally, it was because of his disappointing sons.

Goodness!

As the esteemed head of the Thunder Lineage and an Almighty in the Astral Projection stage, he confidently declared that he would arrange the best teacher for Wang Xiu.

But what happened?

The originally peak Nascent Soul stage Ji Ba inexplicably became Ji Jinglei at the Core Formation First Layer stage, a huge downgrade.

How embarrassing!

Even after practicing for many years, Ji Yan still felt his face burning with embarrassment.

If this got out, Ji Yan would lose all his credibility if he asked Ji Jinglei to teach thunder techniques as a favor.

Ji Yan was furious at that time.

He directly contacted Ji Ba and then... got blamed layer by layer, with the final target falling on Ji Jinglei.

Hmm.

How should I put it?

It left Ji Yan speechless.

The law doesn't hold everyone accountable, and these brats are becoming more and more skilled.

It's impossible for Ji Jinglei to teach thunder techniques unless the Thunder Lineage wants to be as infamous as the Divination Lineage.

But when to stop is also a matter of careful consideration.

If he appeared immediately and faced Wang Xiu, Ji Yan wouldn't know where to put his old face.

So...

Ji Yan decided to hide in the shadows and observe for a while. If he found any problems with these two boys' foundational thunder techniques, then...

At that time...

He would descend as a "hero," save the two boys, and resolve the embarrassment.

That's what Ji Yan thought.

However...

What did he see?

He saw his own son, whose cultivation was so ordinary, yet so confident.

He...

He even dared to teach Wang Xiu the Thunder Symbol Sword Art.

Heh.

You should know that the Thunder Symbol Sword Art is a high-level thunder technique.

Even a Gold Core stage Perfected Being wouldn't dare to casually teach such a high-level thunder technique to others because it could easily spiral out of control and cause casualties.

This brat!

At the Core Formation First Layer stage, he dared to teach a Foundation Building stage cultivator a high-level thunder technique. Where did they get the audacity?

For a moment...

Ji Yan, hidden in the void, almost burst out laughing from anger.

He made up his mind.

As long as there was even the slightest problem when Wang Xiu practiced the Thunder Symbol Sword Art, he would immediately reveal himself and scold the two of them until they were covered in dog blood, unforgettable for their whole lives.

Especially Ji Jinglei, that turtle grandson!

If he didn't recognize him after being whipped by the thunder whip, then Ji Yan would have been a useless father!

But...

The development of the situation once again exceeded Ji Yan's expectations.

These two little brats, one dared to teach and the other dared to learn, actually managed to learn the Thunder Symbol Sword Art.

It was simply unbelievable, beyond belief.

Even novels wouldn't dare to write such a thing!

But that's still not the most unbelievable part. What's even more unbelievable is that after teaching the Thunder Symbol Sword Art, Ji Jinglei, this scoundrel, dared to continue teaching.

The Lightning-Wind Talisman Sword Art!

The Thunderous Annihilation Curse!

The Shadowy Lightning-Step!

...

Each one of these is a high-level thunder technique with both power and danger, where a mistake in cultivation could result in death.

Only Ji Yan, as an Almighty in the Astral Projection stage, with his high skill and boldness, dared to continue observing from the shadows.

If it were any other Venerable in the Nascent Soul stage...

Seeing these two messing around like this, they would be scared out of their wits.

This is not how you court death!

However, this is still not the most unbelievable part. What's even more unbelievable is that Ji Jinglei actually managed to teach Wang Xiu all these high-level thunder techniques.

No, it's not right!

It shouldn't be said that he taught Wang Xiu, his own son, everything. Ji Yan is very clear about it.

This wave.

It's all because Wang Xiu, that kid, is a natural genius. He relied on his talent to self-study advanced Thunder techniques, and even indirectly helped Ji Jinglei improve.

Sigh~

I originally wanted to teach Wang Xiu Thunder techniques to repay the favor owed by my daughter. But now, not only has my daughter's favor not been repaid, but my foolish son owes this kid another favor.

This is ridiculous!

Although Ji Jinglei is infuriated, there is still some good news.

That is.

Wang Xiu's talent far exceeds Ji Yan's imagination.

After all.

If he learns Thunder techniques from a Nascent Soul stage or Astral Projection stage Thunder Venerable or Thunder Almighty, it's normal for his cultivation to progress quickly. It's not considered a remarkable skill.

However.

If he can learn Thunder techniques quickly and well from a mediocre practitioner, what does that mean?

It means that Wang Xiu is definitely a rare genius in the cultivation of Thunder spells, surpassing his peers. Even in the peak Thunder Lineage of nine hundred years ago, no one could compare.

If he can be brought from Spirit Turtle Peak to Thunder Sound Peak... it would be a huge gain for Thunder Lineage.

Perhaps there is a chance to lead Thunder Lineage back to glory!

Hehehe~

As for the threat from Luo Binglan?

Heh.

Disciples have the freedom to choose their own branch, that's the rule of the sect.

Even if Luo Binglan is arrogant, she is just one person. At most, she can charge up to Thunder Sound Peak and beat Ji Yan.

As for the others?

If thousands of disciples from Thunder Lineage swarm her, can she kill them all?

Hidden in the shadows.

Ji Yan was thinking about what bait to use to lure Wang Xiu over.

But.

He absolutely cannot use his daughter's happiness as a bargaining chip!

Even if they were to be together, it would only be after this kid leaves Divination Lineage and lives a stable life with Xiao Jiu.

Then.

Ji Yan would consider it reluctantly after multiple tests.

He won't use his daughter as a bargaining chip to win over Wang Xiu, not a chance!

...

"Dad!"

Seeing Ji Yan suddenly appear, Ji Jinglei instinctively shrunk his neck.

"Don't call me dad, I'm not your kind of father!"

"Pah!"

Ji Yan coldly snorted, "I'm not your kind of father either. Don't you know your own level? How dare you teach others advanced Thunder techniques without permission? Are you asking for death?"

Who do you think you are?

Ji Jinglei felt a surge of resentment and couldn't help but retort, "But I did teach Wang Xiu junior brother, and I only took two days!"

"Dad."

"When you taught us Thunder techniques back then, it took more than half a month for us to get started. So it seems..."

Ji Yan indifferently interrupted, "What does it seem like?"

There was a murderous intent!

Ji Jinglei shrank his neck and forced a smile, "It doesn't seem like anything."

This old guy!

His teaching level is poor, yet he won't let others say it. He's really concerned about his reputation and misleading others.

Crack~

Seemingly aware of his foolish son's dissatisfaction, Ji Yan directly used his hand to pinch a spell, and a thunderbolt struck Ji Jinglei.

Whoosh~

The silver-clothed youth instantly turned into a black-clothed youth. His hair stood on end, black smoke billowed from his mouth, his eyes rolled back, and he fell to the ground.

...

"All the miscellaneous people have been dealt with."

Ji Yan put away the spell and looked at Wang Xiu, calmly and proudly saying, "Your talent is good, very suitable for learning Thunder techniques. I will make an exception and give you a chance."

"Leave Divination Lineage and join Thunder Sound Peak."

"I can accept you as a closed-door disciple and teach you all my lifelong Thunder techniques. After I step down, you will be the new leader of Thunder Sound Peak."

"What do you think?"
