Destined Antagonist: I Refuse To Annul The Engagement!

The Yin Yang Holy Lord pondered for a moment before speaking to Jiang Qiankun, "I have already made it clear to you before that the position of the young clan leader of the Jiang family is the task I have entrusted to you, as well as a test for you."

"If you successfully seize the position of the young clan leader, I will bestow upon you my inheritance and appoint you as the Saint Child."

"With your strength, this test is actually not difficult."

"But, you still failed..."

Jiang Qiankun lowered his head in shame and said, "Disciple is ashamed of betraying Master's trust."

The Yin Yang Holy Lord shook his head, his tone unchanged, and looked at Jiang Qiankun, saying lightly, "Failure is not terrifying."

"I can give you another chance."

"But if you fail again this time..."

Jiang Qiankun suddenly raised his head, his gaze intense, and said in a deep voice, "Master, rest assured, disciple will do everything possible to complete Master's test!"

"Please instruct me, Master, on what to do."

The Yin Yang Holy Lord nodded with a smile, "Since Jiang Xuan is used as a scapegoat, if he were to die..."

"This..." Jiang Qiankun hesitated, "We are currently not in the ancestral land. If I were to openly assassinate Jiang Xuan, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape death!"

The Yin Yang Holy Lord shook his head, "You don't need to take action, I will arrange everything properly. When the time comes, you just need to lure Jiang Xuan and anyone who poses a threat to your position as the young clan leader, and kill them all."

"With all your competitors dead, the position of the young clan leader will naturally be yours."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiankun's heart skipped a beat, and a deep unease immediately enveloped him.

If he were to kill Jiang Xuan and the others, he would indeed become the young clan leader of the Jiang family without any objections. However... this also meant that the Jiang family of this generation would be greatly weakened. With a slight mistake, the immortal Jiang family, which had inherited for millions of years, would be destroyed in his hands!

After all, the ancient Saints had long prophesied that this era would be a great revival of the myriad realms, with the return of gods and demons.

A great era meant a great calamity. Those who successfully crossed it would prosper, while those who failed would perish!

He did indeed have a heavy personal motive.

But in the end, he was a member of the Jiang family. It made him feel uneasy to ruthlessly harm his fellow clan geniuses.

There were just too many of them!

In fact, if it were just Jiang Xuan alone, he wouldn't hesitate at all. He would even spare no effort to tear Jiang Xuan into pieces!

The Yin Yang Holy Lord saw Jiang Qiankun's hesitation and coldly reprimanded, "Confused!"

"You should be clearer than me about the current situation of the Jiang family."

"The bloodline is gradually weakening, each generation inferior to the previous, and there are few geniuses."

"If it weren't for the imminent arrival of the great era, the magnificent Luck of the great era nourishing the Profound Heaven, with the current foundation of the Jiang family, it would be difficult for even a genius like Jiang Xuan to be born."

"Tell me, how can such a Jiang family withstand the catastrophic calamity that comes with the great era?"

"And how can it preserve itself and continue the name of the immortal Jiang family?"

Looking at Jiang Qiankun, the Yin Yang Holy Lord emphasized, "As a genius of the Jiang family, your responsibility is to ensure the survival, continuation, and growth of the Jiang family."

"With your talent, in due time, you can achieve the name of a genius. If you take control of the Jiang family and ascend to the position of the Yin Yang Saint Child, combining the strengths of both families, what great calamity can't be easily overcome?"

"Under the great calamity, the Jiang family will naturally have no worries."

This... Jiang Qiankun was stunned. The words of the Master were something he had never considered before, as if they had opened a door for him, giving him a sense of enlightenment.

Seeing that his words had an effect, the Yin Yang Holy Lord continued to administer a "strong medicine" to Jiang Qiankun, saying in a deep voice, "To be frank, I value you greatly. If you can control the Jiang family, I intend to appoint you as the next Holy Lord."

"At that time, with you in control of the Yin Yang Sacred Land and the Jiang family as your backing, you will stand undefeated, and even further, you will have the opportunity to dominate the Profound Heaven."

Jiang Qiankun's eyes suddenly widened, a glimmer of ambition flashed through them. To control the Jiang family, to take charge of the Yin Yang Sacred Land, and to dominate the Celestial Wonders Realm?

An unprecedented ambition surged in his mind.

Even his breathing became more rapid.

Jiang Qiankun's gaze instantly became firm, he looked at the Yin Yang Holy Lord, respectfully kowtowed, and solemnly said, "Thank you, Master, for pointing me in the right direction. Disciple knows what to do now!"

In the short term, killing Jiang Xuan and the others would indeed damage the foundation of the Jiang family.

However, all of that is illusory!

With Jiang Xuan and the others' qualifications, they are fundamentally unable to bear the responsibility of protecting the Jiang family, let alone have the ability to strengthen the Jiang family and restore the glory of the Jiang family's ancestral lineage.

Even if that divine bone, even if that bloodline-reverting monster, it's still the same!

Time waits for no one, the great era could arrive at any moment.

Only he... has the qualifications and ability to achieve all of this!

...

Eastern Divine Continent, the far west.

Uncountable nameless immortal mountains, like stars scattered across the boundless ocean.

Deep surging waves contain a terrifying and majestic energy.

The ethereal immortal mountains circulate with mysterious and countless Dao symbols, displaying divine and extraordinary phenomena that reflect the heavens and earth.

Clearly, these two magnificent scenes are not in harmony, but they are miraculously integrated into one, as if they were born as a whole, following an indescribable rule and order.

This is where the Yin Yang Sacred Land is located.

The ancient Yin Yang Sacred Land's lineage is already untraceable, and even before the recorded ages in the Celestial Wonders Realm, the Yin Yang Sacred Land had already existed, towering at the peak of the Profound Heaven.

Through the fragmented images in various lost ruins, it can be vaguely understood that during its peak, even gods and demons had to retreat.

However, during those glorious eras and great times, the Yin Yang Sacred Land would be low-key, and even secluded from the world.

Therefore, the entire Celestial Wonders Realm has very little understanding of the Yin Yang Sacred Land.

Only one thing is clear: the Yin Yang Sacred Land is ancient and powerful, not to be easily provoked.

Faintly visible on each immortal mountain are thick and sturdy chains, resembling dragon-like shackles. The other end of the chains is connected to a magnificent celestial palace.

The celestial palace exists in the void, appearing and disappearing.

It quietly ripples with the eerie aura of the intertwining of yin and yang.

The Yin Yang Sacred Palace.

Inside the palace, the Yin Yang Sacred Lord, dressed in a platinum Dao robe, waved his hand to dispel Jiang Qiankun's communication image. His eyes narrowed slightly, emitting a faint light and darkness, yin and yang.

Buzz...

A profound light and shadow surged out from within the Yin Yang Sacred Lord, and obscure Dao patterns scattered, gradually forming a figure shrouded in black mist.

If there were outsiders present, they would be extremely shocked.

Because... the face of the figure in the black mist is exactly the same as the Yin Yang Sacred Lord!

"Your disciple is quite naive and cute," the figure in the mist said with a sinister smile.

The Yin Yang Sacred Lord glanced at the figure, his expression unchanged, his tone calm, "The easiest to deceive are always these 'geniuses' with average qualifications but lofty ambitions. They are unwilling to fall behind others and never reflect on their own mediocrity. They only blame their failures on external factors."

"These people are full of jealousy and endless desires. With a little instigation, they can be easily manipulated and controlled."

"Jiang Qiankun is no exception."

The figure in the mist clicked his tongue and couldn't help but applaud, "As someone who comprehends the Yang Dao, you should have a righteous and upright image. Unexpectedly, you have also understood human nature, hypocrisy, and deceit, effortlessly."

The Yin Yang Sacred Lord neither confirmed nor denied, his eyes slightly raised as he looked at the figure, his voice slightly condensed, "I hope you haven't deceived me!"

"We are originally one, how could there be deception between us?"

The figure shrugged, "You have also verified it. The Jiang family of Changsheng is indeed one of the human realm spirit clans, descendants of the ancient human race. Their bodies contain the bloodline of the spirit clan, carrying the vitality and lifespan of the ancient human race."

"As long as the concentration of the spirit clan bloodline in those Jiang family disciples reaches sixty, its effect is comparable to the supreme holy medicine!"

"I have told you before, in my era, there were many supreme existences specifically hunting down Jiang family disciples with a bloodline concentration exceeding sixty, treating them as blood food, devouring and refining them to enhance their potential and prolong their lifespan."

The figure looked at the Yin Yang Sacred Lord and smiled faintly, "You and I must integrate yin and yang, become one, in order to comprehend the great Dao. But you also know that I am from the past, while you exist in the present."

"There is a shackle of time order between us, making it extremely difficult to achieve integration."

"Since we can't find the miraculous holy medicine, the Jiang family's spirit clan is the best choice."

"There is one thing I don't understand." The Yin Yang Sacred Lord raised his eyes slightly, looking at the figure, and asked in a deep voice, "Since the Jiang family is a spirit clan with the bloodline of the ancient human race, why are they so weak?"
