Chapter 1063 - 1060: The Despondent Zhuge Yang

Huaxia, Lu Province.

"Ye Qiu is not dead, because the Dao intervened, Ye Qiu survived in Tian's hands."

"Additionally, after Ye Qiu safely returned to Hong Kong, he single-handedly annihilated the Huo and Rong families in one night, seemingly having increased his strength."

...

Just after returning to Huaxia and seeing the news from Hong Kong, Zhuge Yang couldn't help but punch the airport wall in anger, feeling very unwilling.

The Zhuge Clan, as the descendants of Zhuge Liang, are known for their divine calculation, strategic planning, and winning invisibly.

And he, as the prodigy of this generation of the Zhuge Family, had gained the admiration of countless people for his extraordinary planning and strategic abilities.

Therefore, Zhuge Yang himself had always been filled with arrogance.

Even when dealing with Ye Qiu, Zhuge Yang was disdainful, full of confidence, thinking that once he made a move, killing Ye Qiu would be a simple matter.

Unfortunately, Zhuge Yang never expected that Ye Qiu was this formidable, breaking one plan after another under his careful scheming.

He even brought out the Divine Blood in the final moments, using it on Ronghua, preparing to assuredly kill Ye Qiu at the best opportunity.

But heaven's plan surpasses man's, and Ye Qiu unexpectedly absorbed the Divine Blood from Ronghua's body, utterly destroying the layout he had orchestrated for so long.

If not for Tian's intervention, he might have died at Ye Qiu's hands.

Moreover, even though Tian intervened, he couldn't kill Ye Qiu, allowing him to escape disaster.

These repeated failures filled Zhuge Yang with unwillingness, as well as a deep sense of defeat.

He was known as the Zhuge Family's genius and the new generation's Divine Calculator, yet he couldn't kill even Ye Qiu. What kind of Divine Calculator was he?!!

Because of this, in front of others, Zhuge Yang was always full of confidence and arrogance, but when facing Ye Qiu, only utter helplessness remained.

Ye Qiu's strength was only at the Half-Step Divinity Ascension Peak, not having entered the Divine Realm, and he was already hard to handle.

Once Ye Qiu's strength broke through to the Divine Realm, wouldn't it be impossible for him to ever kill Ye Qiu?!!

Thinking of this, Zhuge Yang's mood became even more depressed.

Zhuge Yang, feeling somewhat dejected, sighed and could only return dejectedly to the Zhuge Clan.

"Zhuge Yang, you've finally returned."

The Zhuge Family patriarch and other members, upon seeing Zhuge Yang return to report, cheerfully asked, "Hahaha, since you're back, Ye Qiu should be dead at your hands by now, right?"

The matter of Zhuge Yang acting against Ye Qiu was already well-known within the Zhuge Clan.

So, everyone was full of expectations for Zhuge Yang.

After all, the opponent was that Demon King Ye Qiu, and only a genius like Zhuge Yang could possibly handle it.

Or instead, successfully kill Ye Qiu!!!

"No, I failed."

However, facing the expectations of the Zhuge Clan, Zhuge Yang could only let out a bitter laugh and replied helplessly, "That Ye Qiu killed Ronghua, who absorbed the Divine Blood, broke my plot, and survived."

"How could that be!!!"

Upon hearing Zhuge Yang's response, the pupils of the Zhuge Clan members constricted sharply, unable to maintain their composure in shock.

Ronghua's matter was specifically sent to the Zhuge Family, where the clan members applied their Secret Techniques on Ronghua, allowing her to break free from the bottleneck of power and unleash her strongest force.

Moreover, with the use of Divine Blood, Ronghua's physical strength could probably burst out with Divine Realm standards in an instant!!!

With Ronghua having Divine Realm strength, combined with Zhuge Yang's plot, yet they still couldn't kill Ye Qiu?!!

Could it be that Ye Qiu's strength really was that formidable?!!

"Has Ye Qiu already broken through to the Divine Realm?!!"

Zhuge Wei asked Zhuge Yang with a serious face, questioning him in a deep voice.

Perhaps only this explanation was plausible; only if Ye Qiu broke through to the Divine Realm could he counter Divine Realm power, and at this level, Zhuge Yang's plots and schemes truly would be futile.

Moreover, if Ye Qiu broke through to the Divine Realm, then everything would become troublesome.

Even their Zhuge Family would have difficulty handling a Divine Realm master!!!

"No, Ye Qiu's only at the Half-Step Divinity Ascension realm, but it's probably only a matter of time before he breaks through to the Divine Realm."

Zhuge Yang shook his head in defeat, bitterly.

Upon hearing this, looking at Zhuge Yang, the Zhuge Clan members also sighed.

They could see Zhuge Yang's low spirits and dejected demeanor, obviously having been heavily impacted by not being able to kill Ye Qiu.

If Zhuge Yang continues to slump down like this, it's very likely the Zhuge Clan might lose a genius.

"Zhuge Yang!!!"

However, at this moment, the Zhuge Family patriarch Zhuge Wei, staring at Zhuge Yang, shouted angrily, criticizing, "Look at what you've become, slunched back, head down, looking like you've lost your soul, a human not human, a ghost not ghost! In this state, you're not worthy of being a part of our Zhuge Family!!!"

"Patriarch...I..."

Zhuge Yang raised his head upon hearing this, seemingly wanting to explain something.

But before Zhuge Yang could speak, Zhuge Wei was already in front of him, sneering and slapping his face hard, continuing to scold, "It's just one failure, you didn't kill that Ye Qiu, it's not like you've been killed."

"Do you feel wronged? Uncomfortable inside, thinking you shouldn't be hit by me?!! You're no longer a child, constantly feeling wronged, failing once, feeling unwilling, wanting others to comfort you?"

Without any mercy, in the dumbfounded eyes of Zhuge Yang, Zhuge Wei coldly laughed and reprimanded, "Remember your identity, you're a part of the Zhuge Family, you should carry yourself as such!!!"

"You failed once and didn't kill Ye Qiu. What can you change by blaming heaven and others? Think of a way to start over, kill Ye Qiu, and return the shame of this failure, understand?!!"

Listening to the patriarch's reprimand and anger, feeling the burning pain on his cheek, Zhuge Yang felt himself becoming sober.
