Su Family, Back Mountain Dungeon.
"Adoptive father, why! Why do you want to harm me!" A raspy voice, filled with hatred, echoed from the dim dungeon.
The speaker was a youth of fifteen or sixteen.
The youth's face was pale, his hands and feet pierced by iron hooks, pinning him firmly to the ground.
There was a hideous, terrifying bloody hole in his abdomen.
He was staring at the middle-aged man before him with gritted teeth, his bloodshot eyes filled with intense hatred and confusion.
His name was Su Chen, and he was originally the number one Prodigy of the Su Family.
Body Tempering at ten, opening meridians at twelve, and now, not even fifteen, he had already condensed a Primal Core; the title of Genius was well-deserved!
Not only that, he had made many contributions to the Su Family, seizing many mineral veins and causing the Family to flourish.
He had been covered in scars along the way, never complaining even when his bones were broken, because the Su Family had been kind to him and his sister.
But just yesterday, he was called to the back mountain by his adoptive father. He thought there was something to discuss, but he never expected what happened during the conversation.
His adoptive father suddenly attacked, destroying his Dantian with a single punch! Afterward, he was imprisoned in this dark, sunless dungeon!
This left Su Chen both furious and extremely confused.
He didn't understand why this middle-aged man, whom he regarded as his biological father, would do something so insane to him!
Facing Su Chen's heart-wrenching questioning...
The middle-aged man's expression didn't change at all. He only spoke in an indifferent voice: "Why? No reason! A ten-year scheme was all for that Heaven-rank Bloodline in your body!"
As the words fell...
Su Chen's body jolted violently!
"For the Heaven-rank Bloodline in my body? Could it be..."
Ten years ago, his other, true Su Family was wiped out by a group of men in black—pillaging, burning, and killing until blood flowed like a river. Then, Su Tianpo had descended like a Heavenly God to save him from the fire and water!
He had then recognized Su Tianpo as his adoptive father. Looking at it now, all of it was Su Tianpo's scheme!
Before Su Chen could continue his conjectures...
A cold female voice rang out from the dungeon entrance.
"That's right! Father did this exactly for me!"
Swish!
The figure of a woman in a white dress appeared before Su Chen.
Seeing the woman, Su Chen opened his mouth and subconsciously called out: "Menger..."
However.
Before he could say anything more...
Su Menger showed a look of disgust and then lashed a whip toward his face.
"Shut up! You nauseating, lowly mongrel!"
Snap!
Su Chen was whipped until his flesh was torn open, a hideous bloody gash appearing on his face as blood sprayed wildly from his mouth and nose.
His aura became even more withered.
At the same time.
He found it somewhat hard to believe.
Was this still the weak and gentle girl he used to know, the little follower who often trailed behind him asking for candy?
"So you've been lying to me all along!"
Coming to his senses, Su Chen clenched his fists, feeling as if his heart were dripping blood!
He wasn't blind; he could naturally see the coldness and heartlessness deep within Su Menger's eyes!
Su Menger gave a cold snort and said: "Humph! If it weren't for the need to use the Sun Yang Bloodline in your body to harmonize my Absolute Yin Ice Veins, why would I let a lowly person like you touch my hand?"
"To tell you the truth! Every time you transferred power to me, I had to spend half an hour washing my hands afterward!"
"Acting close to you was also just to make you willingly transfer power to me to suppress the Cold Poison in my body!"
Hearing these words...
Su Chen's heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife!
So.
From the very beginning, he had been used by the woman before him!
So.
Everything in the past was fake!
Others only knew that he tempered his body at ten, opened his meridians at twelve, and condensed a Primal Core before fifteen.
But who knew...
That during the past ten years, he had transferred half of the power he Cultivated every day into this woman's body! All to eliminate the Cold Poison produced by her Bloodline!
If not for this, with his Heaven-rank Bloodline, how could his Cultivation speed have been so slow?
He likely would have been reborn and reached the next level long ago!
If not for this...
This Su Menger would have died long ago!
Glancing at the dejected Su Chen...
Su Menger said to Su Tianpo: "Don't waste time, Father. Do it!"
"Do it?"
Su Chen gave a low roar: "Even if I die, I won't let you have your way!"
As he spoke, he prepared to bite his tongue to commit suicide!
"Su Chen, you dare!"
"If you do that, I will make sure you never see your sister again for all eternity!"
Su Tianpo narrowed his eyes and said indifferently.
As soon as these words were spoken...
Thump, thump, thump!
Su Chen's mind trembled, and his entire body kept recoiling.
In his heart, his sister Su Waner was his reverse scale!
His sister was two years older than him and had taken care of him since childhood, looking after him with every possible care.
Bullying him was one thing, but bullying his sister was absolutely unacceptable!
"Su Chen, don't resist! Otherwise, I will make your sister wish she were dead! You know, Chen Lingtian of the Chen Family has always been very interested in your sister!"
Su Menger let out a light laugh, her smile looking extremely twisted. She seemed to have forgotten how well Su Waner had treated her, completely regarding her as a future sister-in-law.
"Hateful!"
Su Chen roared toward the sky, fire seemingly spitting from his eyes. Su Menger's mocking voice echoed continuously in his ears as he said through gritted teeth: "Menger, my sister and I treated you like that, yet you treat me like this? You poisonous woman!"
Chen Lingtian was the most promiscuous among the Chen Family Disciples, having been with countless women and enjoying abusing them!
He looked at the jade pendant hanging around Su Menger's neck, seemingly crazed, and let out a low hiss: "Including that jade pendant hanging from your neck, I gave you that too! It was the only memento my biological father left me when he disappeared!"
Snap!
Just then, Su Menger took off the jade pendant and threw it directly at Su Chen's face, saying: "It's just a jade pendant!"
"Father, do it!"
As she spoke, she looked toward Su Tianpo beside her.
Su Tianpo nodded slightly and said calmly: "Actually, there's no need to waste so much breath on him!"
"There is a need!" Su Menger nodded slightly and said calmly: "This way, he won't resist!"
She was already impatient!
Su Tianpo nodded.
Walking up to Su Chen, he used his hand like a blade and forcefully sliced open the latter's chest.
Then, his hands formed complex seals as he began to seize the Heaven-rank Bloodline from within Su Chen's body!
As Su Tianpo moved...
In an instant.
Intense pain struck!
Su Chen's vision went black, and he nearly fainted.
"Aaaah!"
Pain!
It was simply too painful!
He even wished he could just die! But he knew he couldn't, because he still had his sister!
Regarding this...
Su Tianpo remained indifferent, his face cold, and he even increased the force in his hands.
Before long.
A constantly writhing dragon-shaped Bloodline was pulled out by Su Tianpo.
Seeing this, Su Menger's eyes immediately lit up. As long as she successfully refined it, she would have a great fortune!
Seeing this scene...
Even with Su Tianpo's deep shrewdness, he couldn't help but be a little excited at this moment.
"Good! Good, good! A ten-year scheme, today is finally the day of the harvest!"
"Excellent! Father! Quickly marry his sister off to Chen Lingtian of the Chen Family!" Su Menger went back on her word immediately, her expression not even changing.
Hearing these words...
Su Chen's body, which was on the verge of fainting, jolted violently, and his eyes turned incredibly bloodshot.
His features twisted further from the rage in his heart.
From his mouth came a roar like that of a wild beast.
"Su Tianpo!! Su Menger! I, Su Chen, swear that one day I will see you father and daughter dead without a place for burial!!"
Wiping out his Family!
Stealing his Bloodline!
Making him recognize his enemy as his father for over ten years!
Exploiting him for over a decade!
Every single one was an irreconcilable hatred!
Just then, the blood seeping from his body poured collectively into that jade pendant.
Crack!
The jade pendant shattered directly!
An incomparably grand, incomparably overbearing voice exploded in his mind like a great bell!
"Without destruction, there can be no construction; through destruction, one is rebuilt!"
"Bury the Heavens, Bury the Earth, nirvana heaven coffin!"
