You Drove Me Out with Your Hypocrisy and now Crying When I Come to Take It All? Chapter 153 : Chapter 153
Chapter 153: What Exactly Has That Grandson Cheng Zhenjiang Done?!
Cheng Feng had entered the top thirty of the Human Ranking at only sixteen, and still had nearly twenty years left to chase the very peak of the Human Ranking.
His character and reputation were both widely praised, and throughout the Jianghu he was known as the Young Northern Alliance Leader.
At such a young age, he was already a celebrated young heroic prodigy.
He was the clear leading figure among the younger generation the Cheng Family had devoted itself to nurturing.
In the future, once Cheng Zhenjiang stepped into the Grandmaster realm, Cheng Feng was ant to beco the face of the Cheng Family, take up Cheng Zhenjiang’s banner, and lead both the Cheng Family and the River-Severing Sect.
With a blood descendant so important as this, Cheng Cangshan naturally could not ignore the fact that he had fallen into an Inner Demon and was unable to free himself from it.
It was precisely because of this that Cheng Zhenjiang, in his anxiety, had made one wrong move after another.
As the Cheng Family’s most senior pillar, Cheng Cangshan naturally had to step forward.
“Sword Chief Chang, do not be hasty.”
Cheng Cangshan’s expression turned sowhat serious, and he no longer addressed Chang Ningxiao as little girl.
Although Cheng Zhenjiang had not told him exactly how he had provoked her, one look at the Sword Intent filling the sky was enough to show that this Grandmaster of the Sword Dao had absolutely no intention of holding back.
“This matter arose because Zhenjiang was too desperate for his son’s sake and ended up making a mistake. Everything was done for the Cheng Family’s future. If he offended you in any way, then this old man will apologize on his behalf. Please do not bla him.”
Cheng Cangshan’s old yet vigorous figure leapt down from the giant turtle, and he cupped his hands.
“If we owe anything, then this old man will naturally not avoid it. We are both Grandmasters, so I ask Sword Chief Chang not to make things difficult for the younger generation of my Cheng Family.”
What had co here was only a projection.
Up against Chang Ningxiao, who was here in person, he would gain no advantage, so he first had to show courtesy, reason, and a asure of retreat.
When Chang Ningxiao heard this, her expression imdiately turned rather strange.
“Make things difficult for the younger generation of the Cheng Family? That is slandering . As for this talk of being for the Cheng Family’s future, I fear the truth is not what you think.”
A genius as unprecedented as Cheng Yu—so long as he was here, the brilliance of every other young mber of the Cheng Family would pale.
Such supre talent—
That was what truly concerned the Cheng Family’s future!
And yet he and Cheng Zhenjiang had ended up utterly irreconcilable, severing ties altogether, and they still had the nerve to speak of acting for the Cheng Family’s future.
It was simply laughable.
The mont Cheng Cangshan heard Chang Ningxiao’s words, his expression turned strange. With the eyesight of a Grandmaster, he could clearly read the unconcealed changes in her expression.
She was mocking him, albeit faintly.
He imdiately turned to Cheng Zhenjiang and, sure enough, saw the man lowering his head, trying to hide an expression of fear and regret.
Was this grandson hiding sothing from him?
Just as he was about to ask, he suddenly sensed a faint and inexplicable bloodline connection.
Cheng Cangshan imdiately understood.
There was another outstanding descendant of the Cheng Family here!
At the sa ti, Cheng Yu did not pay much attention to Cheng Cangshan’s appearance. His attention was fixed elsewhere.
After he had just recovered that dim Dragon Scale from Cheng Zhenjiang, the thing had instantly entered his body.
To his surprise, it had begun a wondrous fusion with the Black Turtle Statue.
Only at this mont had the two finally fused completely into one.
The Dragon Scale disappeared, and the lifelike Black Turtle Statue suddenly beca covered in a dense layer of exquisitely fine scales.
The aura and power contained within it beca even more mysterious and powerful.
Because of the changes brought about by this fusion, the Black Turtle Statue’s inheritance through the Cheng Family bloodline also vanished at that very mont, replaced by a unique aura that belonged solely to Cheng Yu.
This object no longer had anything to do with the Cheng Family bloodline!
It was precisely because of this change that his bloodline produced a fluctuation, which Cheng Cangshan sharply detected.
The mont Cheng Cangshan looked over, he was dumbfounded.
The young man before him had a bone age of no more than twenty, yet his Internal Energy had already reached the late Sixth Rank, and his entire body brimd with astonishing Vital Blood.
Most importantly of all, he carried the Cheng Family’s bloodline, and it was exceptionally pure—pure enough to belong to the direct line!
He had rely napped through two years of secluded cultivation.
Since when had the Cheng Family produced a young genius of this level?
At this age and with this level of strength, there were only a handful of such people in all of Great Qian!
“Young man, who are you?”
Cheng Yu raised a brow and revealed the token at his waist. “Jinyiwei Thousand-Household Commander Cheng Yu of Great Qian’s Jiannan Circuit!”
His voice burst forth with the imposing force of powerful Internal Energy.
Neither humble nor overbearing, it fully displayed the bearing of the Jinyiwei.
So he really was surnad Cheng!
Cheng Cangshan shuddered again. This junior’s bearing was astonishingly strong, and his Internal Energy was also absurdly powerful!
But why was his hostility so strong?
Cheng Cangshan looked at Cheng Zhenjiang with a puzzled expression. “Little Jiang, which branch does this little fellow belong to? How have I never heard of a genius like this?”
If not for the Flying Fish Uniform on Cheng Yu being rather eye-catching, forcing him to be cautious, he would already have leapt over to inspect Cheng Yu more closely.
The mont Cheng Zhenjiang heard that question, his whole body trembled.
What was bound to co had finally co!
If Cheng Cangshan learned that this rebellious son, with such terrifying talent, had severed ties with him, then sothing enormous would absolutely happen!
But now that he had fallen into such danger, there was no longer any way to hide it!
“H-he... he is a descendant of the main line...”
Cheng Cangshan raised a brow. “The main line... wait! Am I not from the main line myself? What are you talking about?!”
He could see Cheng Zhenjiang’s unease, and his suspicions grew deeper and deeper.
Was there so huge problem behind this?
Cheng Zhenjiang nodded stiffly and spoke with a bitter expression.
“Yes. If not for that matter, he should also have been your great-grandson.”
Great-grandson?!
It was as though a bolt of thunder had struck him. Cheng Cangshan froze on the spot.
This was his great-grandson?!
“There is such a genius among my descendants, and I did not know about it?”
His foot moved, and in an instant his figure appeared before Cheng Yu.
But to his surprise, a Xiuchun Saber was already barring his path.
Cheng Cangshan did not grow angry in the slightest, because once again he saw strength in Cheng Yu that exceeded all expectation.
What fierce Saber Qi! It was even stronger than that of an ordinary Seventh-Rank martial artist!
A supre talent of the Saber Dao!
Who knew which branch of the family had produced such a son?
“Child, your na is Cheng Yu, isn't it? Co, let your great-grandfather take a look at you.”
Cheng Yu stepped back and looked at him coldly.
“Senior, I have absolutely nothing to do with the Cheng Family. My only identity is as a mber of the Great Qian Emperor’s personal guard. Please conduct yourself with propriety!”
He had long since seen through the Cheng Family’s hypocritical nature of caring only for profit. The old man before him looked kindly enough, but compared to familial affection, what was far more obvious in his eyes was a desire that made Cheng Yu uncomfortable.
Cheng Cangshan’s hand froze in midair. He had never expected Cheng Yu to react like this.
He had no relation to the Cheng Family?
He had even rejected the concern of a Grandmaster. What exactly was going on?
At the sa ti, Cheng Zhenjiang’s roar rang out.
“You rebellious son! Do you know who you are speaking to?!”
Disdain flashed through Cheng Yu’s eyes. “I have already severed ties with you. What does anything of the Cheng Family have to do with ?”
Rebellious son? Severed ties?
As Cheng Cangshan listened to all of this, the shock on his face beca even more obvious. He finally understood.
This was Cheng Zhenjiang’s son!
A talent capable of standing above all of Great Qian’s younger generation, yet he had severed ties and was filled with hostility toward the Cheng Family!
He turned back to look at Cheng Zhenjiang.
What exactly had this grandson of his been hiding from him?!
