You Drove Me Out with Your Hypocrisy and now Crying When I Come to Take It All? Chapter 166 : Chapter 166
Chapter 166: The Mother and Son Both Misunderstand, and Cheng Feng Coughs Blood
Cheng Zhenjiang watched Zhao Xichun approach with her sword in hand, her killing intent surging.
He was instantly dumbfounded, and the aura he had been circulating with the help of the healing spiritual spring abruptly stagnated.
“Madam, w-what is the aning of this?”
The way his eldest daughter Cheng Yue had looked at him just now had already seed sowhat wrong. There had clearly no longer been that admiration a daughter should have for her father.
She had also given sothing to Zhao Xichun to look at.
And it had turned her into this.
Could his precious daughter have learned from that unfilial son and started doing outrageous, treasonous things?
When Zhao Xichun saw Cheng Zhenjiang’s innocent expression, the anger in her heart grew even stronger.
He was still hiding it from her!
Tears slid from the corners of her eyes as she gritted her teeth and said, “Yu’er… what exactly happened to him?!”
Cheng Zhenjiang froze.
That unfilial son? What happened to him?
He had latched onto the Sword Chief of the Sword Bearers, beaten Cheng Zhenjiang until he fled in a sorry state, seized two inheritance secret treasures, and succeeded beyond all expectations.
Instead of comforting him, the pitiful father, why was Zhao Xichun asking about that unfilial son?
“Are you still refusing to speak?”
After Zhao Xichun guessed what had happened, her killing intent grew weaker and weaker, turning into boundless sorrow.
No matter how angry she was, what fact could it change?
Seeing that Cheng Zhenjiang still refused to yield, her heart grew increasingly desolate. In a daze, she even thought of a terrifying possibility.
As a publicly recognized great hero of the Jianghu, Cheng Zhenjiang regarded reputation and chivalry as dearly as his own life.
Back then, it had also been because of these things that he and his biological son had fallen out, reaching the point of severing ties.
Their relationship had even developed into irreconcilable hatred.
Zhao Xichun knew what Cheng Yu had done to the people of the Jianghu in Jiannan Circuit. Calling his actions demonic would not be an exaggeration.
He would absolutely beco a public enemy of the Jianghu.
As Cheng Yu’s father, Cheng Zhenjiang was caught in the middle. It would be hard to avoid him making so horrifying decision…
The mont she thought of this.
Zhao Xichun’s eyes trembled, and her entire body began to shiver.
The object in her hand slipped down, and she said in disbelief, “Cheng Zhenjiang, you… you cannot have thought Yu’er was too ruthless and intolerable to the Jianghu, and then done sothing utterly unconscionable, can you…”
At this mont.
Fury completely clouded Zhao Xichun’s mind, and she only felt that Cheng Zhenjiang’s face before her was incomparably ugly.
In her heart, she imdiately recalled the helpless words of her old father, Zhao Yi.
This man seed upright and righteous, but he specialized in hurting those closest to him!
Cheng Zhenjiang widened his eyes and stood there in a daze.
What utterly immoral thing had he done?!
Why did he not know about it?!
As his emotions shook wildly, the aura from the spiritual spring that was healing him was actually blocked inside his ridians, obstructing the circulation of his Internal Energy. His injuries beca even more severe.
He imdiately began coughing. “Cough, cough, cough!”
When Cheng Feng had seen Zhao Xichun suddenly erupt with killing intent just now, he had montarily forgotten the gloom and pain in his heart.
Then he heard what she said, and his heart imdiately trembled.
He hurried forward and picked up the sheet of paper that had fallen to the ground.
He examined it carefully.
Cheng Feng, nineteenth on the Human Ranking… he had advanced by one place!
Wild joy suddenly erupted in his heart.
Then he looked toward the seventh position, the na that had made him feel despair these days and left him unable to lift his head.
Cheng Yu’s na was no longer there!
Across the entire Human Ranking.
There was no na Cheng Yu at all!
Cheng Feng was overwheld by joy. The pressure brought by Cheng Yu’s talent was impossible to avoid, but removing Cheng Yu was also a fine solution!
Father seed to have cleaned house and eliminated that hateful fellow!
Good!
It was simply wonderful!
A lowly person with no chivalry like that had brought destruction upon himself. No matter how talented he was, it was aningless.
A young Jianghu talent like Cheng Feng was the one whose future was truly bright!
Cheng Feng only felt that he had completely recovered at this mont.
He revealed a well-behaved and sensible expression, then stood in front of Zhao Xichun.
“Mother, do not bla Father. Making such a decision must have been very painful for him. Please do not make him suffer any more.”
“Who told Second Brother to be so insensible? A small family might indulge his tantrums, but the greater family of Jianghu chivalry cannot tolerate him…”
Zhao Xichun’s entire aura froze, and the sword in her hand fell to the ground.
Second Brother.
This was the first ti Cheng Feng had called Cheng Yu that.
Since the other party was already like that, Cheng Feng did not mind using him now to display a little obedience and sensibility.
“Feng’er…”
Her sensible younger son was before her, yet Zhao Xichun could no longer see her other son.
She only felt incomparable grief, and tears poured down her face as she hugged Cheng Feng.
Even a tiger did not eat its cubs.
But if Cheng Zhenjiang had truly done such an utterly unconscionable thing, what could she do?
They still had other children!
“Feng’er, Mother cannot bear to part with your Second Brother…”
Cheng Feng wiped his mother’s tears sadly, forcibly suppressing the joy deep in his eyes.
He comforted her. “Mother, do not worry. Second Brother will no longer make mistakes. No matter how great the resistance is, I will definitely bring him back to the Cheng Family ancestral hall.”
A performative promise that cost him nothing.
He was very good at that!
When Zhao Xichun saw that her younger son had abandoned his hatred at this mont and was willing to completely accept his insensible elder brother, her grief and sorrow deepened even further.
Their family had once been whole. How had things co to this?
To the side.
Cheng Zhenjiang watched the tragic scene of mother and son embracing each other. As he listened to their words, he fell into complete stupefaction.
If his judgnt was correct.
The two of them were about to start mourning Cheng Yu!
This… this was far too unreasonable.
“Madam, Feng’er, I fear the two of you may have misunderstood sothing.”
Cheng Feng squeezed out a tear and looked at his father sorrowfully.
“Father, now that things have reached this point, there is no need for you to hide it from us anymore. Feng’er will always support your decision!”
His younger son was as sensible and obedient as ever.
Yet Cheng Zhenjiang’s face only showed a strange expression. What had he done?
This ti, he had failed to seize the inheritance from Cheng Yu. The gap between his two sons would inevitably grow wider and wider. Could Feng’er still support that?
Cheng Feng’s forced tears blurred his eyes, so he could not see his father’s expression.
He continued, “Father, where is Second Brother’s body? As his brother, I must bring him ho!”
Body?!
Cheng Zhenjiang’s mouth fell open. “What are you talking about? That unfilial son is alive and well. Why are you collecting his body?”
As soon as these words were spoken.
The mother and son froze at the sa ti, staring at Cheng Zhenjiang in disbelief.
Cheng Yu was not dead!
Zhao Xichun was instantly overjoyed. Her husband would not lie to her about sothing like this. Yu’er had not t with disaster!
Cheng Feng’s hands trembled, and his heart sank to the bottom in an instant.
He forcibly kept himself from showing disappointnt and raised the copied paper of the Three Rankings in his trembling hands.
“Then… then why is his na not on the Human Ranking…”
Not on the ranking?
Cheng Zhenjiang froze. He took it and looked. Cheng Yu’s na was indeed not on the Human Ranking.
The problem was.
Cheng Yu had already torn Xiao Teng, who had transford into a Vital Blood Flood Dragon, apart with his bare hands. What was he still doing on the Human Ranking?
Bullying children?
“Is this not him?”
Zhao Xichun and Cheng Feng hurriedly looked over. What Cheng Zhenjiang showed them was not the Human Ranking, which totaled one hundred and eight nas.
It was the other side.
The Earth Ranking, which contained seventy-two nas.
“Sixtieth on the Earth Ranking, Cheng Yu of the Jinyiwei, twenty years old, martial realm at Late Sixth Rank (doubtful)… crushed a Late Seventh-Rank martial artist of Prince Qing’s Lineage… A talent unseen in a thousand years, with an imasurable future!”
The matter of Cheng Yu slaying Xiao Teng had been hidden!
But his other combat records were already shocking enough.
Twenty years old, and on the Earth Ranking!
Cheng Feng stared blankly at those words, only feeling his mind and blood churn violently.
The world spun before his eyes, and his throat grew itchy and sweet.
Pfft!
A mouthful of blood spurted from his lips.
