Chapter 45 Even with a spirit bone, a waste is still a waste.
Chapter 45 Even with a spirit bone, a waste is still a waste.
Upon recognizing Cheng Xiao as the visitor, Cheng Wanshan instantly regained his fatherly authority.
Seeing that face and remembering what he had done in the Spirit Beast Garden, a surge of anger instantly rose in his heart.
He pointed at Cheng Xiao's nose and started cursing.
"Cheng Xiao! You unfilial son, how dare you come back?"
He was clearly very angry.
Even disregarding the Cheng family's public image, he continued to berate them: "You are unkind, unjust, disloyal, and unfilial! At home, you show no love for your younger siblings, disrespect your parents, and even steal from the Cheng family's Spirit Beast Garden, a treasure accumulated over a century! You rebellious traitor, I, Cheng Wanshan, have no son like you! Today, I will enforce family law, uphold justice even against family ties, and execute you on the spot, you wicked creature!"
Standing to the side, Li Mu saw Cheng Xiao, then glanced at the terrifying dragon behind him, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.
She quickly lifted her skirt and ran forward, putting on the act of a heartbroken and loving mother, and cried out.
"Xiao'er! How could you speak to your father like that? Quickly, kneel down and apologize to your father. If you compensate for the loss of these spirit beasts, I will beg your father to spare your life..."
A loud slap interrupted Li Mu's cries.
It was not Cheng Xiao who made the move, but Cheng Wanshan, whose eyes were bloodshot.
He slapped Li Mu hard, sending her flying, and roared, "Ignorant fool, shut up! This kind of traitor who betrays his master and ancestors will surely die today, no amount of pleading will help!"
At this moment, Cheng Xian, who had just gotten up from the ground, was staring intently at the silver dragon behind Cheng Xiao, his eyes filled with jealousy and greed.
He couldn't understand how a piece of trash whose supreme spiritual bone he had taken could control such a terrifying true dragon.
Why would a dragon be willing to form a contract with him?
Cheng Xian never expected that the giant dragon in front of him was the "useless mudskipper" that he had obtained from the black market to forcibly sign a master-servant blood pact with Cheng Xiao in order to humiliate him.
At that time, he felt that the snake with its tendons removed and Cheng Xiao with his bones removed were a perfect match.
Once greed arises in one's heart, it grows ever larger.
If he could take away Chengxiao's spiritual bones back then, he can take away this true dragon today!
Cheng Xian stepped forward, blocking Cheng Wanshan's path, and said righteously, "Father, please calm your anger. Family scandals should not be aired in public. Why trouble you and the elders with such a trivial matter of cleaning up the family? I am willing to personally kill this traitor and wash away the shame of my Cheng family!"
Cheng Wanshan looked at his imposing youngest son and nodded repeatedly with a face full of satisfaction.
This is the kind of good son he admires.
He said "good" several times, then continued, "As expected of Cheng Wanshan's prodigy! Go, let him see what a true genius is!"
Cheng Xian sneered, took a step forward, and an aura of pressure instantly erupted from his body.
Some sharp-eyed people in the audience had already noticed.
"Golden Core stage! My god, a fourteen-year-old Golden Core stage cultivator!"
This time it wasn't flattery, but a genuine shock from the heart.
Upon seeing the dragon, many people in the city initially wanted to flee, but now they stopped.
After all, who can resist the gossip of a large family?
It's rare to see a legitimate son and an illegitimate son fighting in the street.
Faced with such gossip, many people risk their lives to watch the spectacle.
Cheng Xian looked down at Cheng Xiao with a condescending gaze: "Cheng Xiao, for the sake of our past brotherhood, I'll give you one last chance. Release the spirit beast behind you from its contract and hand it over to me. Then cripple your limbs, and I can plead with Father to let you return to the Cheng family."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiao was momentarily speechless.
He discovered this problem after he traveled through time.
Perhaps the people here are too busy cultivating immortality and are in seclusion for years, neglecting basic education.
Most of them are not highly educated, and what they say is so funny that it makes people want to laugh.
These monks not only have their own mental illnesses, but some of them, despite being hundreds of years old, are still as immature as children.
Take, for example, the Cheng family father and son standing in front of him now.
He recalled someone from his hometown saying that some people are just getting older, but their mental age is still that of a broken child.
Cheng Xiao replied with amusement, "A piece of trash who barely reached the Golden Core stage by digging into my bones dares to bark wildly in front of me?"
This revelation immediately drew the attention of those below.
It was worth risking their lives to watch the spectacle.
This is some really big news!
Just as Cheng Xiao had predicted, Cheng Xian was enraged by just one sentence.
His entire body shone with golden light, and he roared, "You're courting death!"
Then, together with the Purple Flame Unicorn that was barely able to stand up, they pounced on Cheng Xiao!
A fierce glint flashed in Long Yingxue's eyes behind her. Just as she was about to lash out, she heard Cheng Xiao's voice ring out in her mind: "I can do it myself."
Upon hearing this, Long Yingxue obediently sat down to the side.
Faced with an opponent like Cheng Xian, Cheng Xiao had no need to use his Mahayana stage divine soul.
He simply stretched out one hand and met the opponent's deadly attack.
His physical body had been constantly tempered over the past six months, and it was now far beyond what ordinary cultivators could achieve.
Moreover, this world places greater emphasis on cooperation with spirit beasts, and very few people cultivate their physical bodies.
With a dull thud as flesh collided, Cheng Xian's confident, all-out attack was completely thwarted when Cheng Xiao firmly gripped his wrist with one hand, leaving him completely immobile!
"How is this possible?" Chengxian asked in horror.
He's at the Golden Core stage!
The other party clearly didn't have even a trace of spiritual energy fluctuation on them!
"Stop acting like a dim-witted villain," Cheng Xiao coldly commented.
The next second, he slapped her across the face.
The fourth-tier purple flame unicorn that roared and pounced forward had its skull shattered by Cheng Xiao's seemingly casual slap.
Its massive body was sent flying backwards in an instant, crashing through more than a dozen courtyard walls and dying on the spot!
Before Cheng Xian could react to what was happening, Cheng Xiao's right leg flashed like a blur and kicked him hard in the abdomen.
"Wow!"
Cheng Xian coughed up a mouthful of blood instantly, his body went limp, and he was trampled under Cheng Xiao's feet.
In less than three moves, this "peerless genius" who was the focus of the entire city was beaten to the point of almost losing his life.
Everyone who was watching the spectacle was dumbfounded.
They were already retreating to avoid being caught in the crossfire of this earth-shattering battle.
But unexpectedly, this "battle" ended so quickly.
A Golden Core stage expert in his teens was unilaterally and brutally beaten.
Cheng Xiao placed one foot on Cheng Xian's chest, looking down at his distorted face.
"Trash is trash. Even if you are given a supreme spiritual bone, you will still be a piece of garbage. But I, Cheng Xiao, can still trample you under my feet even without a spiritual bone."
Cheng Xiao did not use his divine soul, but only used the cultivation he had gained in this world to use the body of "Cheng Xiao" to trample the culprit who had dug out his spiritual bones under his feet.
This can be considered as giving an explanation to the original owner of this body.
After dealing with the villains, the next step is to wipe out the entire Cheng family.
Seeing Cheng Xian's defeat, Cheng Wanshan realized he was in a panic.
He roared, "You unfilial son! Release Xian'er!"
