nChapter 42: Beating Up Someone so Badly That He Becomes A Dead Dog

nTranslator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

nWhat’s ridiculous was the word ‘family’ in Xia Cangliu’s speech.

nIn that case, when the Southern Xia Manor had been at its most dire straits and needed help the most, had the Northern Xia Manor treated them as a family and offered help?

nOf course not!

nNow that they were in trouble, they finally recalled they had a family at the Southern Xia Manor and still dared to speak so boldly, telling Xia Yuan to sell all his assets for the sake of saving the Northern Xia Manor.

nIn addition, Xia Cangliu even brought up the suggestion of moving into the Northern Xia Manor, so their whole family could be under one roof.

nWas there anything more ridiculous and laughable than this?

nEven when their Southern Xia Manor didn’t owe a single cent to the Northern Xia Manor, they were already treated like dogs. In the past, when they had gone to the Northern Xia Manor for Xia Cangliu’s birthday celebration, they had even been arranged to be seated at the corner.

nIf they truly lost everything and went to stay in the Northern Xia Manor, wouldn’t they be treated like **?

nXia Cangliu actually dared to say such a thing!

nWhat sort of character did Xia Xun and Xia Qilin have? Did he not know?

nThis was completely speaking bull**!

nThis wasn’t something as simple as being biased. This was simply him not caring about the life and death of Xia Yuan and Xia Qingchen!

nAs long as Xia Xun and Xia Qilin were fine, it didn’t matter if Xia Yuan and Xia Qingchen died!

nHence, Xia Qingchen couldn’t endure it anymore and was enraged.

n“Xia Qingchen, is this how you talk to grandfather?” Xia Qilin slapped the table and rebuked him.

nHowever, Xia Qingchen cast a cold glance at him. “You and your father finally no longer pretend to be silent corpses? If you need money, the two of you simply sat there quietly, not even daring to let out a fart. You told an old thing to use words of kinship and family to pressure my father, while you parasites can simply wait for money with your hearts at ease!

n“You all don’t even know how to beg for help and still want me and my father to help you all? What lunatic ravings!”

nTruthfully speaking, if they sincerely asked for help, Xia Qingchen had a way to make the martial pavilion spare them.

nAfter all, he had earned a lot of credit for being the one to expose Li Weifeng.

nIf he asked them for mercy, would they reject his request?

nBut what a pity this father-and-son duo couldn’t put down their pride. They only knew how to forcefully do what they wanted.

nWas there any reason for Xia Qingchen to help them?

nWhy not just leave them to their fates?!

nPak!

nXia Cangliu was so angered that he trembled. He slapped his chopsticks onto the table and angrily stared at Xia Yuan. “Look at the good son you brought up! What **ty words is he saying?”

nHowever, Xia Yuan who had always shown filial piety and listened to him remained unmoving.

nAfter some time, he slowly spoke, “Qingchen’s will is my will. Since second brother has committed a mistake, he should think of ways to resolve this himself. I will not take out a single cent!”

nAfter speaking, he rose to his feet.

n“Unfilial child!” Xia Cangliu’s aged eyes were wide open as he berated, “I gave birth to you and raised you up. In the end, is this how you show filial piety?”

nXia Yuan calmly spoke, “To show you filial piety is what I suppose to do. However, second brother didn’t give birth to me nor did he raise me up. There’s no reason why I should make my family bankrupt to help him!”

n“Farewell!”

nXia Yuan clasped his fists toward Xia Jie.

n“Xia Yuan, I have already decided on this matter. You have no right to refuse!” Xia Cangliu spoke sharply with an ashen expression.

nMn?

nXia Yuan could hear the meaning of his words. His eyes narrowed. “Father, what do you mean?”

nXia Qingchen could also feel that something was wrong.

nHowever, be it Xia Cangliu, Xia Xun, or Xia Qilin, all of them simply sat down, not giving an answer at all.

nIn the end, Zhao Churan had a look of reluctance on her face as she glanced at Xia Yuan. There was compassion in her eyes as she silently wrote the word for ‘house’ on her palm and showed Xia Yuan.

nHouse?

nXia Yuan’s eyes narrowed as though he understood something. “You all sent someone to my residence?”

nSince he had already guessed it, Xia Cangliu no longer intended to continue hiding this.

nHe spoke confidently like justice was on his side. “That’s right! I have already sent someone to take over your residence! This is an inner affair of our clan. Even if you report this up to the imperial capital, no one would care.”

nWhat?

nXia Yuan couldn’t believe that his father would do such a thing!

nIn other words, even before they came to this dinner, Xia Cangliu had already made the arrangements to send people to their residence.

nBecause they could already foresee that Xia Yuan and Xia Qingchen wouldn’t agree.

nHence, they wanted to forcibly sell something that belonged to Xia Yuan.

n“You old fogey!” At this moment, even Xia Yuan couldn’t bear it anymore and started cursing.

nThey were both his sons. Xia Xun was a treasure, could it be that he, Xia Yuan, was just as worthless as mud?

n“Impudent! How dare you speak to father like this!” Xia Xun slammed the table and stood up, glaring at Xia Yuan. “As the eldest brother, you don’t even have a bit of filial piety. You best be careful that I, as your little brother, might teach you how to properly be a human!”

n“Scram!” Xia Yuan was completely enraged.

nDuring all these years, he had suffered from his second brother and he had done his best to endure it.

nBut now, he no longer wished to.

nSuch kinship, such a family…They might as well go to hell!

n“Hmph, unfilial thing. Let me teach you a lesson!” Xia Xun leaped out and slammed a palm toward Xia Yuan.

nHe had always depended on his higher cultivation base to oppress Xia Yuan.

nBut now, things were no longer the case.

nIf it was in the past, Xia Yuan would have lay low.

nBut now, not only did Xia Yuan not hide away, but he even gave a shout and took the initiative to attack.

n“Star-Seizing First Stance, Falling Star!” In an instant, Xia Yuan erupted forth with his cultivation base at the second vortex-level of the major constellation stage.

nSpeaking of cultivation, he was only one level lower than Xia Xun’s third vortex-level.

nHowever, the martial skill he was using was the high-grade yellow-tier technique Xia Qingchen had given him. It was also the pinnacle of all high-grade yellow-tier martial skills.

nOnce he displayed the first stance, along with his cultivation base, even experts at the fourth-vortex level of the major constellation stage had to avoid his superior strength.

nLet alone Xia Xun…

nHis palm strike was countered directly by a single finger from Xia Yuan.

nArgh~

nXia Xun let out a miserable scream that sounded akin to the sound of dying pigs. His face was filled with agony and fear.

nXia Cangliu and Xia Jie were both badly shocked as well!

nXia Yuan actually broke through to the major constellation stage and was even at the second vortex-level. Not only that, but he was also using such a profound martial skill?

nXia Yuan didn’t stop there.

nHis eyes had a crazed look. It was like he was venting all the resentment he felt from the life-long oppression.

n“Star-Seizing Second Stance, Extinction!”

n“Third Stance, Soundless!”

nHe struck out three finger strikes continuously, tapping the different body parts of Xia Xun.

nEvery place he tapped, the bones there shattered immediately, causing Xia Xun to feel extreme pain.

nWhen he finished executing the three moves, Xia Xun was already lying on the ground. His countenance contorted as he screamed in pain. Where was his splendor from the past?

nWhen Xia Qilin saw this, his eyes turned red. “You dare to injure my father!”

nHe erupted forth with a cultivation base at the ninth radiance-level of the minor constellation stage!

nSo it turned out that after several months of nurturing and training in the martial pavilion, he had finally broken through to the ninth radiance-level of the minor constellation stage and successfully became the strongest student in the A class.

n“Nine Plum Blossoms Bloomed!” He roared and aimed an attack at Xia Yuan’s back.

nHmph!

nXia Qingchen narrowed his eyes. He took a step and rushed forward, launching an attack through the air at Xia Qilin.

nXia Qilin had no alternative but to switch his target to Xia Qingchen.

nBoth of them used the first stance of the same martial skill, and the might unleashed was equal. Their streams of inner force dissipated after blasting into each other in mid-air.

n“Despicable thing who sneakily learned my martial skill!” Xia Qilin roared in a low voice. He still persisted in believing that Xia Qingchen’s martial skill had come from the manual they had bought at the auction.

nXia Qingchen coldly replied, “Sneakily learned? I’ve already explained this before. Now, let me explain it to you once again!”

n“Second stance, Windsnow Flow!” He rapidly moved forward. His inner force was emitted in a cycling posture.

n“Third stance, Guest from Heavens!”

n“Fourth stance, Fallen Plum Departure!”

nFour stances were used together, as smooth as floating clouds and flowing water. The essence of each move was unleashed to perfection, pushing Xia Qilin so hard that he could only be on the defensive end.

nAnd the last stance caused Xia Qilin to fly through the air as he coughed up blood, blasting a hole at the door and startling the guests in the next VIP room of the restaurant.

nFor a moment, Xia Cangliu, Xia Jie, and Zhao Churan were stunned once again.
