3: Chapter 3 If my son is not well, you will all be buried with him.

"Snap!"

"Clang!"

Xiao Yueqing slapped the knife that Xiao Tian had pulled from his sleeve, attempting to slit his own throat, knocking it to the ground with a crisp sound.

Xiao Tian stared blankly, a trace of joy rising in his heart.

Mother couldn't bear to lose him...

"Slap! Slap! Slap..."

Xiao Yueqing, completely devoid of the grace of a noble lady, began to slap Xiao Tian wildly.

"You want to die?"

"If you want to die, you can, but take out your uncle's life-saving Medicinal Pill first, and then you can die however you like!"

"Do you think you can threaten me by threatening to die?"

"Hah!"

"Xiao Tian, I tell you, I have wanted you dead for a long time!"

"I wish you would die sooner!"

Xiao Yueqing's crazed appearance made Marquis Chengen frown.

It was truly unbecoming!

He gave the butler a look, and the butler immediately stepped forward.

"My Lady, why must you do it yourself? Just leave such rough work to us servants."

After pulling Xiao Yueqing away, the butler signaled the two servants who had been holding Xiao Tian earlier.

The two understood immediately; one stepped forward to pin Xiao Tian's shoulders to prevent him from resisting, while the other took over slapping him.

The strength of the servants was not something that a pampered lady like Xiao Yueqing could compare to; after a few strikes, Xiao Tian's entire face was swollen.

A hundred breaths later.

"Enough!" Marquis Chengen called a stop, and the servants immediately ceased.

Having lost support, Xiao Tian fell weakly to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood mixed with teeth, looking utterly wretched.

But no one felt sympathy.

Gazes of either indifference or schadenfreude were cast upon Xiao Tian.

"Xiao Tian, bring out the Medicinal Pill, and I shall let bygones be bygones!" Marquis Chengen spoke again.

Xiao Yueqing said coldly, "Did you hear that? Your uncle is not holding this against you, so hurry up and hand over the Medicinal Pill!"

Xiao Tian chuckled, which pulled at the swollen and bruised wounds on his face, causing intense pain, yet he seemed not to feel it.

He slowly propped himself up, leaning against the pillar behind him, and staggered to his feet.

His spine was straight as he leaned against the pillar, like a pine tree that would never bend.

Xiao Tian used his eyes, which were swollen until they were only slits, to look around at everyone in the council hall.

His gaze lingered for a moment on Xiao Zimu, passed over his biological mother, and landed on the high-and-mighty Marquis Chengen.

"I said, I didn't take it. Even if you beat me to death, I still can't produce it!"

Marquis Chengen laughed in anger, "Fine, fine, fine!"

"Someone! Drag him out and beat him! I want to see how long his mouth can stay so stubborn!"

Xiao Tian was dragged out of the council hall by the servants of the Chengen Marquiss Residence, pressed to the ground, and sticks rained down upon him.

"Slap! Slap! Slap..."

Blood flowed out from beneath Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian could no longer feel the pain, and his consciousness began to blur.

Yet he still struggled to open his swollen eyelids, trying hard to stare at the people inside the council hall.

This time, he did not avoid his biological mother.

In those eyes, there was no longer any trace of familial affection or attachment, only deep, unbreakable hatred.

"If I do not die, I will surely return this a hundredfold!"

Xiao Zimu felt the intense malice and complained to Marquis Chengen, "Father, look at Cousin. He has no intention of repenting at all! He actually dares to glare at us viciously! He has come to hate us!"

Marquis Chengen's expression was gloomy. "Did you all not eat? Has the Chengen Marquiss Residence been starving you?"

The servants administering the beating heard this and thought, is the Marquis dissatisfied with their lack of effort?

They immediately increased their force!

"Snap!"

"Crack!"

Xiao Tian's lumbar bone was snapped!

When Luo Yunkai arrived, this was exactly the scene he witnessed.

His eyes were filled with rage!

"Presumptuous!"

With an angry shout, accompanied by a sudden gale, the tiles of the Chengen Marquiss Residence were shaken in all directions by the wave of Qi.

Luo Yunkai reached out with a grab, and the servant who was about to continue beating Xiao Tian flew toward him in a bizarre manner.

He brought his palm down in a chop, and the person was split in two in mid-air!

Pfft— crimson blood sprayed across the sky.

Luo Yunkai still felt it wasn't enough to vent his anger, so he struck several more times, smashing the body into pieces!

A rain of blood began to fall from the sky, mixed with bits of flesh and bone, landing in front of the council hall of the Chengen Marquiss Residence.

Accompanied by this terrifying rain of blood, Luo Yunkai landed beside Xiao Tian.

Looking at his miserable, thin son who was barely breathing, Luo Yunkai glared at Marquis Chengen and the others with crimson eyes, his overwhelming killing intent pouring out.

Instantly...

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Under the pressure of the Qi Refining Great Perfection, a whole group knelt down!

"If my son is not well, I will have you all buried with him!"

After dropping this sentence, Luo Yunkai ignored the others and hurriedly began to treat Xiao Tian.

Gentle Wood-type Spirit energy was slowly infused into Xiao Tian's body, healing his injuries.

Xiao Tian, holding on by a single breath, only thought he was dreaming.

He knew very well that he was at the end of his rope.

He was just unwilling to die like this!

Luo Yunkai's appearance, his domineering protection, and that phrase, "If my son is not well, I will have you all buried with him," he thought were all his own delusions.

He thought, if he had a father, he should be like this!

But he didn't, he was just a... bastard!

"Son, it is Father who arrived late and let you suffer." Luo Yunkai used his aged hand to stroke Xiao Tian's blood-stained and swollen face, full of heartache.

Of course he was heartbroken, he had almost lost a 10 million Spirit Stone + Spirit Stone ATM!

A fearful Luo Yunkai glared fiercely at the people of the Chengen Marquiss Residence again.

Xiao Yueqing met Luo Yunkai's bloodthirsty gaze, and it was as if she saw the bloody scene from many years ago, when he descended from the sky and slaughtered the bandits who had kidnapped her, leaving none behind; the image of that field of bloody corpses remained permanently in her mind.

When she was young, she only felt it was heroic, but now she only felt terrified.

She shivered and screamed out, completely lacking the bearing of a noble lady from a high-ranking family.

"You cannot kill me! I gave birth to a son for you! I am Tian'er's mother! You cannot kill me!"

Xiao Tian woke from his chaotic consciousness because of this piercing scream.

He stared blankly at Luo Yunkai, who had white hair and a white beard and looked quite like the Immortal of legend, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Was it you... who saved me?"

Luo Yunkai heard his son's voice, immediately withdrew his fierce gaze, revealed his most kind and gentle expression, and looked down at his son, whose head was resting on his lap.

"Son, you are awake. It is all Father's fault for arriving late and letting you suffer. Rest assured, Father will avenge you, and none of these people will escape!"

Xiao Tian's nose felt sore, and his eyes turned red. "Are you my father?"

Luo Yunkai nodded, then remembering something, he touched his old face with some embarrassment.

"I am a bit old, but I really am your father. If you don't believe me, ask your mother."

"Mother?" The tears in Xiao Tian's eyes vanished completely, and he said coldly, "I do not have a mother."

Luo Yunkai was slightly stunned. Thinking of the scene he had just witnessed, he couldn't help but nod. "A mother who doesn't care whether you live or die is not worth having!"

"From now on, you only have a father!"

Luo Yunkai looked expectantly at the 10 million—oh no, at his son!

The System would only give the Spirit Stone once the son acknowledged his father.

10 million, oh 10 million! No matter what, he could not let the 10 million that was already in his mouth run away!

Luo Yunkai's expression became even gentler, striving to appear like a kind, elderly father.

Xiao Tian met Luo Yunkai's hopeful gaze, turned his face away, his expression full of stubbornness. "Why did you never appear until now?"

Luo Yunkai said, full of guilt, "Child, Father did not know of your existence before."

"It was only because you encountered a life-threatening crisis that Father felt a connection, and that is how I knew of your existence."

"If I had known about you sooner, Father would have definitely appeared long ago to take you by my side and would not let anyone bully you!"

Luo Yunkai said this with absolute certainty.

However, these words also came from the heart.

Although Luo Yunkai was evil, committed countless murders, engaged in arson and looting, and stopped at nothing... he was still willing to protect his own Bloodline!

Hearing that phrase, "would not let anyone bully you," Xiao Tian could no longer control his tears.

"Father!"
