Xiao Chen paused in his steps.

He abruptly turned back to stare at Xiao Lingtian.

His eyes were sharp as knives, "Little bastard, don't underestimate people. Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west, I, Xiao Chen, won't necessarily never have a chance to turn things around!"

"Hahaha, with you, a cripple with a shattered dantian? Is that even possible?"

Xiao Lingtian's eyes were filled with disdain as he looked at Xiao Chen, as if looking at an ant.

He was completely immersed in the jealous rage of his mother caring for Xiao Chen, and completely forgot that he was alive and standing here today, revered as a genius, entirely because Xiao Chen had risked his life to take a palm strike for him. Otherwise, he would have died long ago.

"Lingtian, why are you saying so much to this good-for-nothing? Tell him to get lost! I want to see how many days this trash can survive outside without the protection of my Zhenbei King Manor!"

Xiao Zhentian scolded angrily.

Xiao Chen's series of actions just now had completely enraged him.

"Xiao Zhentian, then you should open your eyes wide and see how I rise from ruin, and how I trample your high and mighty Zhenbei King under my feet!"

Xiao Chen sneered and turned to leave!

Although his cultivation was currently inferior to Xiao Zhentian, and even far inferior to Xiao Lingtian.

But this little gap was like dust to him, who possessed the Martial God Physique, and not worth mentioning.

He believed.

It wouldn't be long.

The world would tremble because of him.

And everyone would sing praises of his name.

"Chen'er, don't go!"

Wen Wanrong hurried forward, wanting to pull Xiao Chen back.

Although Xiao Chen signing the severance letter shocked her and made her feel a little disheartened, Xiao Chen was, after all, a piece of flesh that had fallen from her body. How could she bear to really let Xiao Chen leave?

Xiao Zhentian was dumbfounded.

Rise from ruin and trample him under his feet?

What great ambition!

He never expected that his eldest son, who had always been too afraid to even breathe loudly in his presence, would actually have such lofty aspirations!

Could it be that he had wronged him in the past?

It was just a pity.

He was already a useless person with a shattered dantian!

Rising up was impossible!

Otherwise.

Such ambition, coupled with the Born King Physique, would definitely guarantee the Xiao family a thousand years of glory.

"Hehe, Xiao Chen, stop pretending. You don't want to leave at all, do you? You're just doing all this in the hope that Father and Mother will try to keep you here, right?"

Xiao Lingtian noticed the moved expressions on his parents' faces, and a hint of resentment flashed in his eyes.

He was selfish.

He was unwilling to share his parents' love with anyone else.

In the past, Xiao Chen was just a nobody, and he was already a little unhappy.

Now.

Seeing his parents starting to care about Xiao Chen.

How could he endure it?

"Rest assured, from now on, the entire Xiao family is yours. One day you will discover that everything you regard as precious is as light as dust in my eyes!"

The corner of Xiao Chen's mouth curled into a sneer, and he left without looking back!

The Zhenbei King Manor's eldest son?

So impressive?

Did he care?

He was a man with a system!

What did this identity amount to!

Seeing Xiao Chen really walk out of the Zhenbei King Manor.

Everyone present was stunned.

All the servants looked at each other, and all saw shock in each other's eyes!

At this moment, Xiao Zhentian's face was already livid. He never dreamed that Xiao Chen would actually have such backbone, daring to really walk out of the Zhenbei King Manor!

And Wen Wanrong's face was also pale, and she slumped to the ground in despair.

She never imagined that after being separated from her eldest son for three years, and only reuniting for a month, their mother-son relationship would be severed.

To think, since Xiao Chen returned, she hadn't even held him once!

Xiao Lingtian was also stunned.

But quickly, a hint of glee surfaced on his brow!

The Xiao family's biggest good-for-nothing had finally left.

From now on, Mom and Dad would be entirely his!

Xiao Chen, walking out of the Zhenbei King Manor, instantly felt relaxed, a sense of relief washing over him.

Looking at the crowded streets, he felt an unprecedented sense of exhilaration.

Seeking what you can't have is truly the greatest suffering in life.

Before, he was cautious and submissive, only seeking a little bit of affection.

But all he received in return was cold looks and disdain.

Now.

He had completely let go.

This feeling.

It was truly fucking amazing!

From now on.

He would only live for himself, only protect the people he wanted to protect!

As for blood ties and familial affection?

Fuck them!

After Xiao Chen left.

The entire Zhenbei King Manor was frighteningly suppressed.

Xiao Zhentian's face was gloomy, and he didn't say a word.

Wen Wanrong, with disheveled hair and tear-streaked face, collapsed to the ground.

All the servants lowered their heads, not even daring to breathe loudly.

"That beast actually dared to leave! How dare he? Leaving my Zhenbei King Manor, he won't even survive a month!"

Xiao Zhentian still couldn't believe it.

"Your Grace, the eldest young master didn't take anything when he left. The world outside is not a good place, will he be alright..."

Butler Li, with his graying hair, stepped forward and cautiously reminded him.

He was an old member of the manor, having been there since Xiao Chen was born.

Back then, he was the one responsible for taking care of Xiao Chen's food and daily life, and he still had some affection for Xiao Chen.

Since Xiao Chen's return, he was one of the few servants in the manor who cared for Xiao Chen.

Seeing Xiao Chen leave empty-handed like this.

He couldn't help but feel sorry for him!

"Hmph! Doesn't he think he's capable? Let him go out and try! Once he hits a wall, he'll know how good the Zhenbei King Manor is to him!"

Xiao Zhentian sneered.

"But the eldest young master is penniless, I'm afraid..."

Butler Li said worriedly.

"Penniless? Doesn't he have his monthly allowance? How could he be penniless?"

Xiao Zhentian frowned.

The Xiao family's children all had a monthly allowance to collect, and it was extremely generous.

Take Xiao Lingtian for example.

He received two hundred taels of silver each month just from his allowance.

That didn't even include various cultivation resources.

At least a thousand taels of silver or more were spent on him each month.

This was a terrifying number.

You have to know.

In the Barren North, a family of three only needed ten taels of silver for a year's worth of living expenses.

But even that.

Very few people could achieve it.

Most commoners often didn't know where their next meal was coming from.

Only a large and prosperous family like the Zhenbei King Manor could afford to give its descendants such a large sum of pocket money.

"Your Grace, the eldest young master has never received any pocket money. You said he couldn't cultivate, and since his food and drink are all provided at home, he doesn't need to spend any money. Therefore, such a large sum of money has never been allocated to him!"

Butler Li said in a low voice.

Hearing these words, Xiao Zhentian was shaken to his core.

He suddenly remembered.

He seemed to have really said those words.

At that time, he transferred the resentment of Xiao family's thousand-year dream of glory being shattered onto Xiao Chen, and he found Xiao Chen displeasing in every way, so he canceled his pocket money.

After saying those words, He had forgotten about it.

In this way, It had continued for three years.

And after hearing these words, Everyone present was dumbfounded.

The eldest son of the dignified Zhenbei King Manor actually didn't have any pocket money?

This was absolutely impossible in any large clan!

"Then why didn't he say anything himself? Does he not have a mouth?"

The expression on Xiao Zhentian's face changed constantly. He struggled for a long time, but in the end, he still stubbornly said.

"The eldest young master respects Your Grace like a god. He once secretly asked this old servant about this matter, but when he heard that it was Your Grace's order, he didn't mention it again! Perhaps, he thinks that Your Grace must have his reasons for doing so! Moreover..."

Butler Li sighed and hesitated.

"Moreover, what?"

Xiao Zhentian pressed.
