Young Master Song did not think much before answering.

"Yes, I do believe so."

Wei Chen asked again, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, I am sure," Young Master Song replied with certainty.

Wei Chen let out a smile that was not quite a smile, half mocking and half amused.

"Then, by the virtue of my strength, your storage ring and all the items within it should not belong to you, because you do not have enough strength to protect them. Give them to me," Wei Chen said matter of factly.

"What?" Young Master Song was stunned. "You cannot do that. This is…" He wanted to protest, but Wei Chen silenced him.

"It is wrong? No, it is not. You said it yourself that it is a virtue, and since it is a virtue, you should act according to it. Unless what you just said was nothing more than empty words," Wei Chen argued.

"This…" Young Master Song wanted to argue back, but when his own reasoning was thrown back at him, he did not know how to respond.

Little Wealthy Demon: [This guy is so bad…]

Handsome Tall and Rich: [I do not know why, but I suddenly feel enlightened.]

Sword Dao Genius: […]

Azure Sky Elder: [Virtue only applies to those who are righteous. An unrighteous person, even with strength that can hold up the sky, is still not virtuous.]

Drinking till Dawn: [Someone really likes monopolizing virtue.]

On the stream, Wei Chen looked at Young Master Song, who was still hesitating.

"Quick, give them to me," Wei Chen said as he wiggled his hand, signaling Young Master Song to hand over the storage ring.

Young Master Song gritted his teeth, then took out the storage ring and gave it to Wei Chen.

"Your flying ark too. Give it to me," Wei Chen said as he looked toward the flying ark parked not far away.

"What?"

"Why hesitate? Is it not a virtue?" Wei Chen asked in return.

"Stop while you are ahead. You should not bite off more than you can chew," a powerful and charismatic voice rang out from the flying ark.

Wei Chen sensed a powerful pressure coming from the flying ark, but when it reached him, it felt no different from a gentle breeze.

"Oh? You have more than one protector?" Wei Chen asked Young Master Song.

"Senior, you are indeed stronger than me, but my father is in the Void Refining Realm. I advise you to stop," Young Master Song threatened.

"Oh? That is your father? Does he believe in the same nonsense as you do?" Wei Chen asked.

"Of course. He is a firm believer in the virtue of strength. In fact, all of the Song Clan believe in this," Young Master Song said proudly.

"Hmm. Good to know," Wei Chen nodded. Then he suddenly vanished, startling Young Master Song and the onlookers.

On the broadcast screen, Wei Chen reappeared, but this time, he was standing on the deck of the Song Clan's flying ark.

"What!?" "Who are you!?" "Seeking death!!"

The Song Clan members on the deck all shouted and immediately rushed to attack Wei Chen.

"I've seen him, all right," Wei Chen said with a smirk as he deflected the incoming blow with his bare hand.

The attackers were at the Nascent Soul Realm, and all of them immediately activated artifacts such as flying swords, flags, fans, and even a bell.

A bell descended from the sky, trying to trap him, but with a single step, Wei Chen vanished.

Slap!

A resounding slap rang out as the bell user's face was struck to the side, blood and teeth spraying from his mouth.

"You…" Before the bell user could say anything, another slap landed, this time on the other side of his face. The force sent him flying backward, crashing into the wall of the main building on the deck behind him.

The injury was not much, but the humiliation he felt….

It's beyond comprehension….

Slap! Boom! Slap! Boom! Slap! Boom!

A few more resounding slaps rang out, and all of his companions were sent flying, crashing into the walls near him. Every one of them wore an expression as if they had lost all meaning in life. Their cheeks were marked red, and several of their front teeth were missing.

If they knew that all of this was being broadcast to the three provinces, they might have wanted to commit suicide. All of them had been building reputations within the Song Clan and the Vermilion Bird Empire.

Even when they lost to their patriarch during sparring sessions, they had never felt humiliation to this degree.

In a few moments, the deck was cleared of all obstacles. Everyone who dared to attack Wei Chen had been slapped senseless and no longer dared to move. They knew their strength was no match for him, and could only hope that their patriarch would avenge them.

At this time, a man with a long, noble looking beard walked out of the main building on the deck. His eyes reflected nothing but superiority, seeing Wei Chen as no different from an ant.

With a voice full of majestic arrogance, he spoke. "I admit you are strong, but this is as far as you can go. I will teach you about the immensity of heaven and earth."

Wei Chen smiled wryly. "I do not know why, but I think you like the sound of your own voice."

This was exactly how Wei Chen felt. Every time this man spoke, he used spiritual qi to amplify his voice and make it sound grander than it should be. With Wei Chen's spiritual sense at the Nascent Soul Realm, he could easily detect it.

It sounded like listening to a voice actor trying to act tough purely through his voice.

Hearing Wei Chen's words, the man's brow twitched. Somehow, what this so called lowly peasant said touched his nerves.

"Hmph!" The charismatic man snorted as his spiritual pressure surged toward Wei Chen.

To Wei Chen, it felt like nothing more than a gust of wind passing by. He felt no pressure forcing him to kneel, nor any crushing force on his bones.

"Let me guess," Wei Chen said casually as he pointed at the charismatic man. "You are that spoiled brat's father."

Seeing that his opponent showed no fear and felt no pressure from his spiritual aura, the charismatic man was startled for a moment before his expression darkened.

"Insolence!" the charismatic man spat as he increased his pressure.

Wei Chen felt a bit more pressure, but it was still no different from a light pat on the shoulder. He easily dispersed it with a slight exertion of his spiritual qi.

Wei Chen continued to watch the man's expression shift from dark, to green, then to red. He was clearly doing his utmost to force Wei Chen to kneel through sheer pressure.

But to Wei Chen….. it was no different from someone desperately trying to hold in their bowels on a bad day.

"Oi, oi. Are you sure you are all right? You look like someone who has not taken a dump for weeks," Wei Chen said with a mocking smile while pretending to show concern.

Hearing Wei Chen's provocation, the man's face turned red with anger. He was at the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm, the highest cultivation realm in the lower world before the Great Ascension Realm forced cultivators to ascend to the upper world.

His dignity and prestige demanded that he not lower himself to the same level as this hooligan. At first, he had wanted to force Wei Chen to kneel through sheer cultivation pressure. Later, he found it impossible when Wei Chen was still far away. Now, with Wei Chen standing barely ten meters in front of him, he still could not make this hooligan kneel.

One needed to know that his special cultivation technique came from the golden age, and his cultivation could be considered invincible within the same realm. The power output of his cultivation far surpassed that of ordinary cultivators at the same level.

But now, he was being humiliated by this nobody.

His anger surged, and he immediately rushed forward, brandishing his treasure sword while taking out a treasure horn. It was the White Horn of Strength Bestowal, an artifact that could increase his strength by an entire level.

Wei Chen noticed the man charging at him, and with this level of strength, he knew he could not play around as he had with the others he slapped senseless earlier.

Wei Chen immediately unleashed his claw. The Avatar of Death appeared behind his back as his claw strike slashed toward the charismatic man.

Clank!

The treasure sword clashed with the claw. The instant they collided, cracks spread across the sword.

"You… are you in the Void Refining Realm? How is this possible?" the charismatic man uttered in disbelief.

One needs to know that in the Void Refining Realm, there will be traces of Heaven Tribulation on the cultivator. This Heaven Tribulation is like a unique spark that only those in the Void Refining Realm possess. This spark acts as the starting capital for a Void Refining cultivator to advance into the Great Ascension Realm.

It stands to reason why this charismatic man did not think that Wei Chen was in the Void Refining Realm.
