An Unexpected Turn: Villain Becomes Dad-Chapter 221
Chapter 221
“Youyue Peak Master, what is your response?”
As the Heavenly Dao Holy Lord slowly approached, Zhan Qiuyun felt an overwhelming, mountain-crushing pressure surging toward her. Even though she had broken through to the Dao Integration Realm, she found it nearly impossible to resist.
Her face turned slightly pale. The Holy Lord’s power … truly terrifying.
No wonder her grandfather, despite being the Grand Elder and having operated within the Heavenly Dao Holy Land for four to five thousand years, still had to bow beneath her authority.
At that moment, Zhan Qiuyun finally saw the situation clearly. Today was a setup—a deliberate scheme against her. In truth, they had never intended to give her the Yu Kong Seal.
The Holy Lord merely used Yu Zun’s words to articulate her own stance.
Furthermore, the Holy Son Tournament’s rule restricting participants to under 1,500 years old clearly seemed tailored for Yu Zun, the Holy Lord’s nephew.
Zhan Qiuyun suppressed her fury with great difficulty.
She had coveted the Yu Kong Seal for a long time, believing that attaining the Dao Integration Realm would finally qualify her to claim it.
But now …
Damn it.
“Youyue Peak Master, the Holy Lord has already spoken. Surely you wouldn’t dare oppose her decision? Or is it that you and your Zhan family no longer regard the Holy Lord as worthy of your respect? Hmph, your Zhan family may be an ancient clan that founded the Heavenly Dao Holy Land, but my Yu Clan’s ancestors were the sect’s founders! Today’s Heavenly Dao Holy Land is still ruled by the Yu Clan!”
Yu Zun’s voice was cold as he addressed Zhan Qiuyun, showing no fear even in the face of a Dao Integration Realm powerhouse.
“Are you seeking death, Yu Zun?” Zhan Qiuyun, already struggling to suppress her anger, could no longer hold back after such provocation.
Yu Zun dared to challenge her so openly, as if she were easy to bully. Her Zhan family had no intention of bowing to the Yu Clan, either.
Boom!
Zhan Qiuyun didn’t employ her spatial abilities but instead summoned a bright full moon behind her. The pure moonlight illuminated the entire grand hall, pressing toward Yu Zun with overwhelming force.
“Hmph!” Yu Zun sneered coldly as a dazzling white jade-like glow erupted from his body. His entire form seemed to transform into a crystalline, translucent jade, radiant and resplendent.
A divine aura emanated from him, as if a celestial being had descended, commanding all beings to bow in reverence.
“Saint Spirit Physique!?” Zhan Qiuyun gasped in astonishment.
“That’s right! Zhan Qiuyun, so what if you possess the Holy Moon Physique? Before my Saint Spirit Physique, it’s nothing but dust! Break!” Yu Zun pointed a finger forward, condensing the divine brilliance into a spear of light. The spear pierced through the radiant full moon pressing down on him, shattering it instantly.
Yang Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly.
From Yu Zun’s earlier strike, Yang Chen could gauge his strength.
Yu Zun’s cultivation was roughly at the mid-stage of the Void Refinement Realm, far weaker than Zhan Qiuyun’s Dao Integration Realm power. However, his physique was extraordinarily unique, seemingly suppressing the Holy Moon Physique.
This allowed him to break the moonlight suppression with a single attack.
Yang Chen was astonished.
The Holy Moon Physique was already a Sacred Physique-class constitution, yet it was subdued so easily.
“Enough, Zun’er!” At that moment, the Heavenly Dao Holy Lord spoke calmly, her voice commanding and resolute.
“The decision is made. In six months, the Holy Son Tournament will take place! The one who emerges as the strongest shall become the Holy Son and lead the younger generation of the Heavenly Dao Holy Land. The Yu Kong Seal will also be entrusted to them!”
Yang Chen glanced at Zhan Qiuyun, noting the frustration on her face. It was understandable. As the dignified Youyue Peak Master, she had never been humiliated to this extent.
Even when Yang Chen himself had occasionally taken liberties with her, she had at least put up a half-hearted resistance. But now, she was being blatantly oppressed by this aunt-nephew duo, leaving her utterly stifled.

Just then, a sudden notification echoed in Yang Chen’s mind:
[Ding! Xiao Dong’s luck value has fallen below 5,000. He is no longer the Son of Destiny. A new Son of Destiny has been detected. Parsing information as follows!]
The system’s voice continued:
[New Son of Destiny detected: Yu Zun!]
[Characteristics: Possesses the Saint Spirit Physique, the purest bloodline of the Jade Beauty Clan in the past several hundred thousand years. Achieved the Void Refinement Realm in just 600 years of cultivation. At the same level, he is undefeated and aims to carve his own path of invincibility, naming himself Yu Zun.]
[Two individuals possess the destiny of being female leads tied to Yu Zun: his aunt, Yu Yourong, and his cousin, Yu Xuan!]
[Note: Yu Zun has a deep possessive desire for his cousin Yu Xuan. Having been raised by his aunt Yu Yourong, he harbors an extraordinary protective instinct for her.]
[Current Value: 30,000 points!]
“Huh?”
Hearing the system’s voice in his mind, Yang Chen was momentarily stunned.
A new Son of Destiny? Yu Zun? Junior Brother Xiao Dong isn’t even dead yet, and a new Son of Destiny has already popped up? Central Continent is really moving at a fast pace. But … aiming to walk an invincible path, undefeated among his peers?
Could this guy actually be an “Invincible Protagonist” type?
Aunt Yu Yourong? That must be the Heavenly Dao Holy Lord’s name.
Yu Yourong … with great capacity comes great magnanimity. I wonder if this Heavenly Dao Holy Lord truly lives up to her name.
Hehe (sinister chuckle).
