505: Feng Chen's Past

Early the next morning, Su Xuan, who had already appeased Mo Li, couldn't help but stretch, feeling incredibly relaxed.

"My Lord, we have finished investigating the information about Feng Chen!"

Su Xuan received a sound transmission from his subordinate.

As early as yesterday, when he left, Su Xuan had already ordered someone to investigate Feng Chen.

After all, the System only said that Feng Chen was the father of destiny, but was this father of destiny the father of a Destined Protagonist who had already been born, or one who had not yet been born?

This, Su Xuan did not know!

"Speak!"

Su Xuan said indifferently.

It turned out that Feng Chen was originally the Young Lord of the Feng family in Qingfeng Town, and at that time, the Feng family's status in Qingfeng Town was that of an overlord.

However, Feng Chen, as the Young Lord, became addicted to gambling, and in less than two years, he squandered the entire Feng family fortune.

Because his gambling was kept secret from his family, by the time the Feng family head reacted, most of the assets had already been packed up and taken away.

Upon learning of this, the Feng family head, who was Feng Chen's father, committed suicide in a fit of rage.

Feng Chen's mother contracted a disease not long after Feng Chen's father passed away, and she also died shortly after.

Hearing this, Su Xuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion; it was too tragic to be a relative of a Destined Protagonist!

Indeed, almost no one who gets involved with a protagonist ends up well!

Although Feng Chen was very miserable, he still had a beautiful wife accompanying him.

His wife was named Lin Qingyue, and because the Feng family had been kind to Lin Qingyue in the past, Lin Qingyue married Feng Chen.

After Feng Chen became addicted to gambling, Lin Qingyue's family was also implicated.

In a fit of anger, the Lin family severed ties with Feng Chen; as for Lin Qingyue, they originally wanted to take her back to the Lin family, but Lin Qingyue was a very virtuous woman and refused to leave Feng Chen no matter what.

Having no other choice, the Lin family, seeing how stubborn Lin Qingyue was, could only give Lin Qingyue a little more time; if Lin Qingyue failed to move Feng Chen within a certain period, the Lin family would forcibly take Lin Qingyue away.

Thus, Lin Qingyue and Feng Chen lived a life of poverty; although poor, because the Lin family secretly provided relief, Lin Qingyue's life was still quite good.

However, Feng Chen did not change because of this; instead, he became even worse.

Slowly, the Lin family felt that Feng Chen had no chance of changing and wanted to forcibly take Lin Qingyue away, but Lin Qingyue still refused, even using her pregnancy as an excuse.

The Lin family had no choice but to give Lin Qingyue a little more time.

Everyone knew the final outcome: Feng Chen still did not change, and the Lin family could no longer tolerate it, directly cutting off support to Lin Qingyue.

They wanted to use this to force Lin Qingyue to return.

"This Feng Chen really is something! He has such a good wife, yet he doesn't know how to cherish her! He's truly foolish!"

Su Xuan listened to the information from his subordinate and couldn't help but shake his head.

An exquisite woman like Lin Qingyue was simply every man's dream.

Setting aside whether she was beautiful or not, in this Tianxuan Continent, there were basically no ugly men or women; as long as they were Cultivators, they were basically not ugly.

The most precious thing was Lin Qingyue's character; her character was too rare!

To be able to share joys and sorrows with her husband already surpassed countless people.

A woman like Lin Qingyue could completely abandon Feng Chen to find a better existence, but she didn't.

"Hehehe! Feng Chen, ah, Feng Chen, since you don't know how to cherish your wife, then don't blame me for being impolite!"

"The woman you don't cherish, then I will cherish her well for you!"

Su Xuan had a mischievous smile on his face; he was a man who had inherited the style of the legendary Martial God, and he certainly wouldn't let go of such an exquisite woman.

"But then again, I really didn't expect that this time's Destined Protagonist would still be unborn!"

"If I can handle this, how much Villain Value can I gain!"

Su Xuan was a little excited.

Although he used to take Destined Protagonists as his sons, the previous times were different from this one!

Those previous protagonists didn't even get a chance to call him 'father' before he eliminated them, but this time's protagonist would have to call him 'father' from childhood to adulthood!

"Hehehehe, that feeling, just thinking about it gives me a thrill! It's simply too exhilarating!"

Su Xuan shivered just thinking about it; he was already a bit impatient.

"It's still early before the Evil God Sect begins its sacrifice, and the Heavenly Martial Holy Lord is still gathering forces, so I'm not in a hurry at all!"

Su Xuan thought to himself.

Moreover, if he could take down the Destined Protagonist on Feng Chen's side, he could earn even more Villain Value.

As long as he had enough Villain Value, he would have more security; in case there were any unforeseen turns in the Evil God Sect matter, he would still have some room to maneuver.

"Then, without further ado, let's go to Qingfeng Town now!"

Su Xuan smiled wickedly.

"Hehehehe, little darling Qingyue, wait for me, I'll be coming for you soon!"

Su Xuan thought to himself.

...

On the streets of Qingfeng Town, Feng Chen, after throwing a tantrum in front of Lin Qingyue yesterday, wandered the streets with a wine pot.

After Feng Chen's commotion yesterday, Lin Qingyue eventually softened and handed over her last dowry, a golden bracelet, to Feng Chen.

Despite her repeated requests for Feng Chen to pawn it and leave some money for her to buy food and drinks.

Feng Chen naturally agreed readily at the time, but once he got the money, he didn't care about her requests anymore.

First, he used part of the money to pay off gambling debts, then borrowed a lot more, and subsequently lost it all.

Finally, Feng Chen used the remaining money to buy some wine, immersing himself in the world of alcohol.

He walked numbly through the streets, his disheveled appearance making those around him want to laugh.

Especially those who recognized Feng Chen's identity, they openly ridiculed him without reservation.

Feng Chen was already numb to the words of these people; at this moment, he only wanted to sink into his own world.

"Drink... I still want to drink... I can still drink! Hahaha! I can still drink!"

Finally, Feng Chen collapsed by the roadside.

He had a dream, a very long dream, in which he dreamt that he won a large sum of money from gambling, allowing him and Lin Qingyue to live a happy and fulfilling life.

He also trampled all those who had bullied him before, making them grovel and lick the dust from the soles of his shoes.

Later, Lin Qingyue's child was born, a lovely boy, and Feng Chen still didn't know what name to give him.

And then, Feng Chen was slapped awake.
