112: Chapter 112 Unfilial Son, I'll Pretend You're Not My Son!

"Mmm-ah! ~~"

By the lakeside of the Prefectural Academy, Shen Qinglan released her grip on Chen An's waist, voluntarily breaking their connection. She smacked her lips, looking as though she were savoring the taste of their recent intimacy.

"So this is what kissing is?!"

"It doesn't feel bad at all!"

"Not bad, Xiao An. From now on, you are this young lady's man!"

"Rest assured, this young lady will take responsibility for you, hehehe!! ~~"

"Alright, this young lady has things to do today, I'll come find you again tomorrow!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Qinglan glanced at Chen An with bright red earlobes, then turned and left without hesitation.

"What, what is this?!"

"Is this right?!"

Watching Shen Qinglan stride away, Chen An couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Chen An, who had still been feeling a bit of a thrill, froze in place. He raised a hand to touch his lips, his face filled with a wry smile.

He had anticipated the young girl being shy and lowering her head, acting coy and feigning anger, or running away with a blushing face, but he never expected Shen Qinglan to have such a bold, assertive personality.

Even though she had let out a soft, sweet gasp when she was ambushed just moments ago, she immediately adopted a domineering attitude of "having captured the opponent," even brazenly claiming she would take responsibility for him.

Gently shaking his head, Chen An suppressed the chaotic emotions in his heart, yet a gentle smile bloomed in his eyes involuntarily.

Since they were young, Shen Qinglan had always been so lively and straightforward, daring to love and hate. Now, even the feelings between them had been finalized by her in such an unexpected way.

"Oh well."

Chen An walked slowly to the lakeside with his hands behind his back, gazing at the sparkling water. The curve of his lips grew wider, "Being claimed by you like this, I don't seem to be losing out either."

However, thinking of what Principal Beigong Mo had mentioned earlier, the smile on Chen An's face gradually faded.

"Ancient Demon Race!!!"

His eyes flickered, Chen An took a deep breath, then strode towards the main gate of the Prefectural Academy.

...

"Hua'er, Hua'er, what happened to you?!"

The inner courtyard of the grand and opulent Shen Family residence featured carved beams, painted pillars, and elegant gardens.

A lady dressed in luxurious clothing with exquisite makeup saw Zhao Tieshan enter carrying Shen Qinghua, who was deathly pale with bloodstains on his lips. Her face immediately turned white, and she hurried over, her voice filled with panic and heartache.

She reached out to help, but Shen Qinghua shoved her away.

"Mother! I want to kill Chen An! I must kill him!"

Shen Qinghua struggled off Zhao Tieshan's back, stumbling to steady himself against a pillar, his eyes bloodshot, his voice raspy like a vengeful ghost.

"What?!"

"Hua'er, Chen An? Who is Chen An?!"

Seeing Shen Qinghua's crazed appearance, Lady Liu was both shocked and furious. She looked at Zhao Tieshan, who had carried Shen Qinghua back, and asked, "Zhao Tieshan, who hurt Hua'er?!"

"Replying to you, Aunt, it was Chen An!"

Looking at Shen Qinghua and the shocked and angry Lady Liu, Zhao Tieshan felt his scalp tingle. He said, "Chen An is a new student at the Prefectural Academy from Wurong County. Brother Shen had a duel with him today, and it seems he was injured by his Saber Intent!"

"What, a wild boy from a rural county dares to hurt my son?!"

Hearing that the one who hurt her son was just a new student at the Prefectural Academy from Wurong County, Lady Liu trembled with rage, her face turning green. She then shouted, "Someone! Chang Wei, get in here immediately!"

"Madam!!!" A middle-aged man wearing black martial arts attire walked in respectfully.

"You go with him to the Prefectural Academy and bring that brat named Chen An back for me!" Lady Liu pointed at Zhao Tieshan and said.

Hearing Lady Liu's words, Zhao Tieshan and the middle-aged Martial Artist named Chang Wei immediately changed expressions.

Go to the Prefectural Academy to make an arrest?!

The Prefectural Academy was the Sacred Martial Arts Grounds of Chengtian Prefecture. Not to mention the teachers and professors, even the ordinary students were either of the Acquired Realm or experts of the Innate Realm.

In Chengtian Prefecture, who would dare to go to the Prefectural Academy to make an arrest, and who could do so?!

"Aunt, I have urgent matters, I'll be leaving first!"

Zhao Tieshan didn't say another word and immediately sprinted towards the Shen Family main gate, leaving Lady Liu slightly stunned.

"Please forgive me, Madam, but I cannot obey this order!" Chang Wei also stepped forward and said to Lady Liu in a deep voice.

"You... very well, very well, Chang Wei, are you trying to rebel? This Madam..."

Having just seen Zhao Tieshan leave without a word, and now hearing Chang Wei openly defy her order, Lady Liu was so angry her face turned livid.

"What has happened?!"

Just at this moment, a deep, resonant voice came from behind the hall door. Immediately following, a middle-aged man wearing a green brocade robe walked out.

"Master, you've come just in time. You must seek justice for Hua'er!"

Seeing the middle-aged man enter, Lady Liu immediately felt as if she had found a backer and hurriedly said, "Hua'er was severely injured by a wild boy from the County Academy at the Prefectural Academy. Quickly send people to catch that boy and avenge Hua'er!"

Shen Wanshan walked over. He looked at Shen Qinghua, who was sitting in a chair, deathly pale, eyes bloodshot, with bloodstains on his lips, looking dejected yet unable to hide the malice in his expression. He frowned slightly and said, "Hua'er, how were you injured, and who did this?!"

"It was just a new student at the Prefectural Academy from the County Academy. He didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and dared to injure Hua'er. Master, quickly send men to the Prefectural Academy to capture that wild boy and vent Hua'er's anger!" Before Shen Qinghua could speak, Lady Liu rushed forward and said anxiously.

Hearing Lady Liu's words, Shen Wanshan couldn't help but be stunned. He turned his head to look at Lady Liu and then shouted angrily, "Liu Ruyan, have you gone mad enough? Sending people to the Prefectural Academy to make an arrest, are you trying to get our whole family killed?!"

"You, you... Shen Wanshan, why are you scolding me?!"

Hearing Shen Wanshan's angry rebuke, Liu Ruyan was also stunned for a moment, then glared at Shen Wanshan and said, "Your son has been beaten into this state, and you don't even dare to arrest the person. Are you even a man?!"

"Fine, if you won't handle this, I will, I..."

*Slap!!~~*

Before she could finish her sentence, Shen Wanshan suddenly slapped Lady Liu hard across the face.

"If you want to go mad, go back to your own family and do it; don't go mad here in front of me!"

"That is the Prefectural Academy, do you think it's your Liu Family home?!"

"If you want to die, I'll write you a divorce letter right now!"

"From now on, you will have no connection to my Shen Family!!!" Shen Wanshan said coldly.

Liu Ruyan clutched her burning cheek, looking at Shen Wanshan in disbelief. She hadn't expected that Shen Wanshan would not only hit her but actually wanted to divorce her.

For a moment, Liu Ruyan was stunned on the spot, not daring to make any more unreasonable trouble, fearing that Shen Wanshan would divorce her right there.

"By the way, I think I heard the name of the student who injured Hua'er earlier. Who is it?!" Shen Wanshan spoke again.

"Replying to you, Master, Madam seemed to say earlier that the person's name is Chen An!" Seeing that Lady Liu had no intention of answering, Chang Wei, who had been standing to the side, said in a low voice.

"Who?!"

"Chen An?!!!"

Hearing Chang Wei's words, Shen Wanshan froze, then his eyes widened as he looked at Shen Qinghua, who was sitting in the chair with a flash of fear on his face.

"Rebellious son! Rebellious son!!!"

Shen Wanshan flashed forward, appearing directly in front of Shen Qinghua, and then slapped him across the face.

*Slap!!~~*

With a crisp sound, Shen Qinghua was sent flying.

While in mid-air, a mouthful of blood sprayed out, and he finally landed on the ground.

"Fa..." Shen Qinghua clutched his face, looking at Shen Wanshan with terror.

"You rebellious son!"

"Didn't I tell you absolutely not to provoke that Chen An, and to try to befriend him? What have you done?!"

"That is a Genius whom even our Old Ancestor wants to recruit and value, a Prodigy who has comprehended the Extinction Saber Intent, the Disciple of the Great Grandmaster Prefecture Head Beigong, an expert who will surely become a Great Grandmaster in the future!"

"Is such a Prodigy someone that a piece of trash like you, or even I, can afford to offend?!"

"Someone! Break this rebellious son's legs and lock him in his room. Without my order, no one is allowed to let him out!" Shen Wanshan looked at Shen Qinghua on the ground, his eyes no longer holding any warmth, only endless coldness.

"Shen Wanshan, you've gone mad, Hua'er is your own son..."

*Slap!!!~~*

"You get out of here too!"

"I don't just have one son; at worst, I'll act like I don't have this son at all!"

Shen Wanshan waved his hand and slapped Lady Liu flying. He looked at her coldly, then flicked his sleeves and strode outside...
