Madam, why do you keep mentioning that jinx?

"Heh, Xiao Chen is trash? I wonder who's talking out of their ass!"

"If Xiao Chen is trash, then the entire Great Xia is trash! No, not even as good as trash!"

Hearing this, Zhang Shiyi immediately laughed.

Trash?

Someone who can kill him, a Half-Step Martial Master, by leaping over several minor realms is trash?

If Xiao Chen is trash, who in the entire Great Xia dares to call themselves a prodigy?

Zhang Mohu frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"

"I discovered that he killed Zhang Youzhi. I originally brought him back to the Zhang Family, but he killed me with a single sword! What do you think I mean?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was almost scared to cardiac arrest, with extremely shocked expressions on their faces.

Xiao Chen killed Zhang Shiyi, a Half-Step Martial Master, with one sword?

An hour ago, Xiao Chen was only a Martial Apprentice at the seventh level!

That is to say, within an hour, Xiao Chen not only became a Sword Cultivator but also possessed the combat power to kill enemies by leaping over two realms?

How is this possible?

"Zhang Shiyi, do you want to hear the nonsense you're spouting? Throughout the entire Great Xia, only peerless geniuses can kill enemies by leaping over realms. Xiao Chen is someone cursed by the Heavenly Dao. How could he have such terrifying talent?"

Zhang Mohu found it hard to believe, staring at Zhang Shiyi's eyes, and questioned him coldly.

"Heh, the four guards who went with me saw it with their own eyes. If you don't believe me, ask them!"

Zhang Shiyi turned to look at the guards behind him.

"Is what he said the truth?"

"That's right. Commander Zhang originally wanted to capture Xiao Chen, but Xiao Chen subdued Commander Zhang with a casual sword strike. If he hadn't been without murderous intent, Commander Zhang would already be a corpse!"

Hearing the guard's words, countless shocks flashed across Zhang Mohu's eyes, and he believed their words.

A person's eyes will not deceive people. The kind of horror and shock in the guard's recollection could not be faked!

Could it be that severing ties with Xiao Chen and claiming to the outside world that Xiao Chen was a good-for-nothing was a play jointly performed by the Zhenbei King Manor and the Saintly Wasteland Academy to conceal Xiao Chen's peerless talent?

In the past ten years, the Demon Clan has been secretly hunting human prodigies. If Xiao Chen really has such shocking talent, it would not be surprising for the Zhenbei King to take this measure to protect Xiao Chen!

"Patriarch, I'm afraid we can't avenge this grudge, right? The Zhenbei King's combat power is unparalleled. Even if we all go together, it's not enough for him to slap us to death!"

A Zhang Family martial artist said cautiously.

Judging from the current situation, Xiao Chen is not only not an abandoned son of the Zhenbei King Manor but also a hidden prodigy. If anyone dares to attack Xiao Chen, they will probably immediately bear the Zhenbei King Manor's thunderous wrath!

Not to mention a small Zhang Family, even the Zhenbei City Lord would definitely not be able to withstand it!

"Zhang Lao Ba, what the hell do you mean by that? Didn't you just say you wanted to exterminate his entire family and play with all the women in his family? Why are you changing your tune now? Why are you being such a coward?"

"Stop talking nonsense here. What I, Zhang Lao Ba, talk about is courage. Who in the entire Zhang Family doesn't know that? But courage is not equal to courting death. The other party is the Zhenbei King! Who can beat him!"

"Then, according to your meaning, the Young Master's revenge will just be forgotten?"

Several Zhang Family martial artists couldn't stand it anymore and started arguing with Zhang Lao Ba.

Watching everyone arguing endlessly, the expression on Zhang Mohu's face began to change uncertainly. After struggling for a long time, he gritted his teeth and roared, "Alright, all of you shut up! Pass down my order, all Zhang Family martial artists will take my son's body to the Zhenbei King Manor. The Zhenbei King indulged his son in violence. I want to seek justice from him!"

"Patriarch, wouldn't it be inappropriate to do this! That's the Zhenbei King!"

An elderly Zhang Family martial artist advised in a low voice.

"Everything must be based on reason. He, the Zhenbei King, is powerful, but he can't be unreasonable!"

"With so many of us going to seek justice, I don't believe he can kill us all!"

Zhang Mohu gritted his teeth and said.

In terms of strength, his Zhang Family definitely can't beat the Zhenbei King Manor, but he knows that Xiao Zhentian is extremely concerned about face. If he goes to Xiao Zhentian in such a big way, Xiao Zhentian will instead be unable to bring himself to kill him.

Of course, this is actually a gamble, a very risky one.

However, with his most beloved only son killed, he really can't swallow this breath if he does nothing.

After all, even if his son is dead now, he can't close his eyes. He, as a father, must seek justice for his son.

On the other side.

Zhenbei King Manor.

A certain hall.

Xiao Zhentian was drinking tea with an old man with a celestial air, the old man being Zhang Qitian, who had previously assessed Xiao Chen's future at the Saintly Wasteland Plaza with his Martial Spirit Realm cultivation.

"Senior, can my son Lingtian really enter the Saintly Wasteland Academy?"

Xiao Zhentian looked at Zhang Qitian with an excited expression.

Originally, he had no hope for Xiao Lingtian's matter regarding the Saintly Wasteland Academy, but unexpectedly, Zhang Qitian actually took the initiative to find him later, saying that he could recruit Xiao Lingtian into the academy, which made him and Wen Wanrong extremely happy.

Although the eldest son has been crippled and his lifespan is about to end, the youngest son has ushered in an opportunity to transform into a dragon, which makes them feel fortunate.

That faint sorrow from the eldest son's downfall was instantly washed away!

"Originally, I wanted to invite Xiao Chen to join my Saintly Wasteland Academy, but I didn't expect that he would be envied by the Heavenly Dao and become a cripple. Now, for some reason, the Martial Spirit Realm isn't responding either. I can only select Xiao Lingtian, who has the highest talent in this year's assessment, to enter the academy!"

Zhang Qitian took a sip of tea and said with a look of regret.

In fact, he didn't think much of Xiao Lingtian's qualifications. After all, he was only a Heaven Rank!

The one he truly valued was Xiao Chen, who possessed the Born King Physique. Such a prodigy was worthy of his Saintly Wasteland Academy's cultivation. It was just a pity that fate played tricks!

He could only make do with taking Xiao Lingtian back.

"Senior, do you think Chen'er can become a Sword Cultivator if he enters the Sword Immortal Academy?"

Wen Wanrong, who was beside him, couldn't help but ask.

"Mother, what are you thinking? Xiao Chen is cursed by the Heavenly Dao and is destined to be plagued by misfortune. How could he possibly become a Sword Cultivator?"

Xiao Lingtian immediately became unhappy, and a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes.

This Xiao Chen had already severed ties with the Xiao Family, yet he could still make his mother think of him. It was truly hateful!

If Xiao Chen hadn't appeared, he should have continued to enjoy his parents' love alone!

"Lingtian, he is still your brother after all!"

"Mother, he is not my brother. He has already severed ties with our Xiao Family! He is now just a piece of trash, a short-lived ghost!"

"Lingtian, how can you say such things about your brother! You didn't used to be like this towards him!"

Wen Wanrong's eyes widened, unable to believe why her youngest son hated her eldest son to such an extent. Before her eldest son's dantian was shattered, her youngest son had always been respectful to her eldest son!

Xiao Lingtian lowered his head and remained silent, but a trace of monstrous resentment flashed in his eyes.

He didn't used to be like this towards Xiao Chen?

That was because the time hadn't come yet.

Ever since that day when the enemy invaded, he deliberately didn't leave and ruined Xiao Chen's dantian.

He had decided to change his way of life!

Why should Xiao Chen be born with the Born King Physique and be high above everyone else from birth!

And why should he, Xiao Lingtian, have to live in Xiao Chen's shadow for the rest of his life? Even though Xiao Chen had always been very good to him, he was unwilling to live so humbly!

Zhang Qitian glanced at Xiao Lingtian, frowned slightly, and then looked at Wen Wanrong, "A person envied by the heavens is destined to have no connection with the Dao, and the Sword Dao is the number one Dao in terms of killing power. It is extremely difficult to cultivate. Not to mention that Xiao Chen has already been cursed by the Heavenly Dao, even if he hadn't been, it would still be extremely difficult for him to become a Sword Cultivator!"

"Is there not even a glimmer of hope?"

"No, absolutely impossible!"

Zhang Qitian shook his head.

"Mother, you believe me now, right? Sword Cultivators are all invincible existences of the same rank and are extremely rare. How could that trash Xiao Chen possibly become a Sword Cultivator?"

Xiao Lingtian gloated.

"Perhaps I was asking for too much!"

A trace of disappointment flashed in Wen Wanrong's eyes, but when she thought that her youngest son was about to soar into the sky, that trace of disappointment instantly evaporated.

Perhaps, this was Xiao Chen's fate.

He was destined to be inferior to Xiao Lingtian!

"Madam, today is Lingtian's great day. Why do you keep mentioning that jinx? He is destined to be useless, and he has nothing to do with my Zhenbei King Manor anymore. We must look forward!"

Xiao Zhentian couldn't help but say, a trace of disgust flashing in his eyes.

The Zhenbei King Manor could not tolerate trash!

Especially a cursed person plagued by misfortune.

From now on, he, Xiao Zhentian, only had one son, and that was Xiao Lingtian, who was about to enter the Saintly Wasteland Academy and soar into the sky.

As for Xiao Chen, he was just a discarded piece of trash, not worth mentioning!
