A Dish Best Served Cold Chapter 1586

 Before this, Chu Qi Tian had thought that he would have to go through a lot of trouble to marry the young princess of the Jones family.


        However, who would have thought that before Chu Qi Tian could even mention it, the head of the Jones family was already rushing to let them get married.


        This happiness came so suddenly that it was hard for Chu Qi Tian to accept it for a while.


        He just grinned in the middle of the room, like a fool, unable to stop smiling.


        One had to know that among the three families of the Chu Clan, the Jones family's young princess was notoriously beautiful.


        Only, previously, because of Angie's personality, she had been rejected by her peers from a young age and treated as an alien.


        However, only later did Chu Qi Tian Fang learn that An Qi was hiding some secret, a secret that could help Chu Qi Tian rise to the top of power.


        Under such circumstances, Chu Qi Tian naturally had long thought of Angie Jones. He had been looking forward to meeting An Qi. He had always been looking forward to the fulfilment of his marriage contract with Angie.


        Now, what Chu Qi Tian had been waiting for was finally coming, and Chu Qi Tian naturally felt an undisguised pleasure in his heart.


        At one point, Chu Qi Tian felt that he was so good that the Jones family head couldn't wait to put his daughter down.


        "Just you? Excellent my ass!"


        Just as Chu Qi Tian was floating in the air, Chu Zhengliang was the one who poured a pot of cold water directly on Chu Qi Tian.


        "I asked you, have you broken through the realm of Patriarch yet?"


        Chu Qi Tian shook his head.


        "Then, has the Second Form of Cloud Dao Heavenly Extinction been practiced yet?" Chu Zhengliang's old face darkened by a few points.


        Chu Qi Tian still shook his head.


        "And has the Chu Family's financial situation eased yet?" Chu Zhengliang's old face was gloomy as he asked again in a cold voice.


        Chu Qi Tian still shook his head.


        "Then what the hell are you doing all day?"


        Chu Zhengliang almost didn't faint from anger at that moment.


        This bastard son of his still hadn't improved at all in the past few months.


        Chu Qi Tian also had grievances in his heart, "Father, I haven't been idle these days either."


        "I don't know which unknowing power is targeting us, nearly half of our financial resources have been cut off."


        "The family has been unable to make ends meet for a long time now, and I have been looking for people to borrow money from all over the place to cover our daily expenses."


        "Alright, alright, you don't need to make excuses either. Qi Tian, my father just wants to tell you that if you want to be respected, you still need to master power."


        "Just like before, why did the Jones family ever mention your marriage."


        "But now, with my father's realm breakthrough, not only has the Jones family taken the initiative to ask for an early marriage, even the Chu Sect elders have come over to curry favour with my father, wanting to nominate my father to become the Chu Sect Master."


        "This is the charm of being powerful, this is what fascinates people the most about the Powerhouse."


        Chu Zhengliang slowly got up, he walked to the window and stood with his hands folded.


        Looking out at the starry river rolling and the sea of clouds tumbling, his low words, once again, rang out


        "Qi Tian, always remember one phrase."


        "When you stand across the void, neither mountains nor rivers nor earth can be relied upon."


        "Only power can be relied upon, only power is eternal!"


        "As long as you master power, this entire world will be within your reach."


        "Women, power, status, are all mere accessories to power."


        "In this world, too many people think that the primitive society of the weak and the strong has passed."


        "But in reality, this society has never changed."


        "The strong live, the weak die, it is the unchanging truth of the ages."


        "Qi Tian, these words of my father, do you understand?"


        Chu Zhengliang spoke in a serious tone, but within his low words, he carried an inexplicable power.


        When Chu Qi Tian heard them, he only felt deafening.


        He nodded his head heavily, "Father, I understand everything."


        "I will work hard."


        "After the wedding banquet, I will dive into seclusion and cultivate hard."


        "I will definitely step into the Seal Realm before I turn fifty."


        "I will never let down my father's expectations!"


        Chu Qitian clenched his palms, and in his eyes, the dense enthusiasm was surging.


        "By the way father."


        "There is a piece of information that I don't know whether I should tell you or not." After a brief moment of excitement, Chu Qi Tian looked at his own father again, wanting to say something.


        "What kind of information?" Chu Zhengliang was puzzled.


        "It is, about that outcast."


        "Recently, there are rumours again that the outcast is not dead and has reappeared in China."


        "Of course, these are just some rumours."


        "I don't really think that that Ye Fan will be able to stay alive under his teacher's sword."


        "However, to be on the safe side, I sent several intelligence officers to China one after another to investigate and collect messages."


        "But the weird thing is that everyone, after entering China, sank like a stone into the sea, with no further news."


        Chu Qi Tian's eyebrows were gloomy and his words carried a bit of gloom.


        In recent years, the Chu family's power in the land of China had become thinner and thinner.


        Especially in recent times, all the Chinese family forces that were loyal to the Chu Family had either betrayed or been eradicated.


        Even some of the intelligence officers who were hidden among the city's wells were also uprooted.


        During this period of time, Chu Qi Tian always felt that there was a force within China that was deliberately targeting their Chu Family.


        "Hmm. I had already read this news several months ago."


        "However, there is no need to care about it."


        "My father's Cloud Dao Heavenly Duel has already stepped into the sixth level."


        "The Cloud Dao Heavenly Destruction Secret Art has also gone one step further."


        "Even if your eldest uncle is here, I am still afraid of him."


        "Not to mention, a little Chu Family outcast." Chu Zhengliang said these words in an ordinary manner, but the bravado and dominance in that tone of voice caused Chu Qi Tian to tremble in shock.


        "Dad, what did you say?"


        "Your Cloud Dao Heavenly Duel, has... already cultivated to the... sixth level?"


        "As I recall, Eldest Uncle was only at the fifth level of completion, right?"


        "Back then, when grandfather was in his prime, he was only this good, right?"


        After learning of his father's true strength, Chu Qi Tian was already completely stunned.


        A pair of pupils, staring in gigantic horror.


        Eyes that were close to popping out.


        He had never dreamed that his own old man, in his wildest dreams, would be so bullish.


        The sixth level of the Cloud Dao Heavenly Duel?


        What kind of concept was that.


        According to Chu Qi Tian's knowledge, apart from the initial family head, the highest realm that the successive generations of Chu family heads had reached was only the sixth level.


        In other words, the height that Ruijin Chu Zhengliang had reached was already almost comparable to that of the Chu Family's successive ancestors.


        At his son's surprise, Chu Zhengliang did not seem surprised.


        Instead, the corners of his mouth curled up as he gently smiled, "So Qi Tian, in the future, our goals as father and son should be set higher and farther."


        "As for that Chu family outcast, he can no longer enter your father's eyes."


        "Even if he were alive, he wouldn't be able to make any waves under your father."


        "Right now, our main priority is to take down the Chu Clan's Sect Master position."


        "As long as your father is in control of the Chu Sect again, no one in this world will dare to disobey me again."


        "At that time, with a single word from my father, I will make you the Chu family head, who will dare to disobey?"


        Chu Zhengliang spoke proudly, but between his words, he was overbearing.


        Chu Qi Tian also heard the blood boil and laughed, "Father, doesn't that mean that you are now the strongest person in the world? Already able to challenge my teacher and challenge the number one on the Heavenly Ranking?"


        Chu Qi Tian was so excited that he asked repeatedly.


        However, Chu Zhengliang shook his head, "Whether or not I can overpower Tang Yun, my father still can't say."


        "But the top three in the Heavenly Rankings is more than enough for me."


        "It's just a pity that the Cloud Dao Heavenly Duel that we are practising is not the original version."


        "Even the Cloud Dao Heavenly Duel Secret Technique is a simplified version."


        "If my father could obtain the complete version of the Cloud Dao Heavenly Duel of my Chu family, then, let alone the number one in the Heavenly Ranking, even if those old monsters beyond the Heavenly Ranking, your father and I would not be able to fight."


        After his bravado, Chu Zhengliang let out a sigh.


        There was regret and pity in his words.
