"Li Fuchen, you're still not going after your opponent and my chariot for ten years."
Bumped!
At the training ground, a smooth-looking Li Fuchen was seen being thrown off the stage, and the person who threw him was a teenager wearing green clothes.
"Heh. As I thought, you were defeated in three steps."
"This was already the seventh time Li Fuchen had been defeated by Li Yunhe in a year!"
"It's not so! Just last year, Li Fuchen was considered a genius and had always suppressed Li Yunhe. But unexpectedly, after a year, genius became incompetent.
Not only did his abilities not increase at all, it also seemed that there was stupidity. Knowing that Li Yunhe was not someone he could defeat, he still accepted Li Yunhe's challenge.
"You've mistreated Li Fuchen, he's always had a nice personality and never gave up on a challenge."
"Hey, blame Li Fuchen's fiancee, Guan Xue, there was no one who didn't know that Li Yunhe also liked Guan Xue.The three of them grew up together, but Guan Xue was already engaged to Li Fuchen, who was already engaged to her, it made Li Yunhe very unhappy.
A mocking laughter coming from around rang out in Li Fuchen's ears, causing him to start breathing erratically.
A year, it all happened a year ago.
A year ago, within the Li Clan, he was judged as a prodigy. Li Yunhe was never considered to be his rival.
Suddenly, his talent seemed to vanish. More like concentrating, he would experience a splitting headache. The pain made him unable to cultivate peacefully. After the duel, Li Yunhe realized Li Fuchen if he did not try his talent to be unusable, each time increasing, he then began to repeatedly challenge Li Fuchen.
With his fists tightly clenched, Li Fuchen looked up at the sky with an unyielding heart.
"Poor heaven, when did I ever offend you, why did you take away my talent? Don't you know that in this world, having power is supreme and the consequence of not having any talent."
Li Fuchen's heart was furious.
Unfortunately the sky could not hear the voice of his heart.
Staring at Li Fuchen with a grin, Li Yunhe felt domineering.He always felt jealous of Li Fuchen, jealous because his father was the Patriarch of the Li Clan, regardless of the treatment of resources, everything was better than his. If his own father was the Patriarch, his growth would definitely defeat Li Fuchen.
Now that Li Fuchen had fallen from grace, the Patriarch could no longer. It was a known fact that the Patriarch had no final say in the Li Clan.
At the back, there was a committee consisting of clan elders. Once the committee made a decision, even the Patriarch would not be able to change it. However, most of the time, the Patriarch was able to make a decision, as the elders rarely interfered in the daily affairs of the household.
"Li Fuchen, I suggest that you forget about Guan Xue. An incompetent person like you is not good enough for him!"
As soon as he finished berating, Li Yunhe turned around and left the training ground.
All the spectators left one after another, leaving Li Fuchen alone.
There was a pavilion in the distance, the person standing inside was a middle-aged man dressed in white, watching the entire commotion.
"Fuchen, even though Father is the Patriarch, even I can't help you in this situation, you have to rely on yourself"
As a father, seeing Li Fuchen being bullied, he was someone else. But he was clear, if he helped his son, Li Fuchen would suffer more humiliation and hatred than the others. In this world, where the one who feels worse than the strong is the one in power, and where rank is highly desirable, it is all about one's abilities. Help from others can make a person look good on the outside, but in the dark, everyone will hate him.
...****************...
Far away at night...
Li Fuchen sat on the futon, meticulously developing the red jade technique.
The red jade technique, the cultivation technique of the Li Clan which only had a high-level yellow class with a total of seven ranks.
A year ago, Li Fuchen had already expanded it to the third rank. But since last year, there has been no measure of progress. As for Li Yunhe, he could use that one year's time to rise to the fourth rank, so as to suppress it.
"Gee!"
Even after trying so many times, the pain in his head still haunted Li Fuchen, making him howl in pain.
This type of pain is much worse than the pain of the body by a hundred times, the source of the pain comes from within the Soul.
Moistened by sweat, Li Fuchen raised his eyelids reluctantly, as blood dripped from his lips from being forcefully bitten.
"Why is it still the same?"
As of now, Li Fuchen had yet to understand what had happened to him. The fight he defeated had actually already shocked him, but the verdict of losing his talent for no reason whatsoever was another one. Just like the venom from a snake slowly damaging one's bone marrow, by the time you realize it, the entire marrow is gone.
...****************...
When night disappears, day comes.
Early in the morning, a guest came to visit the Li Clan. It was the Patriarch of the Guan Clan, Guan Yue.
In the conference room, dressed in white, Li Tianhan excitedly came forward to greet his guests.
"Guan Yue, what wind brought you here today?"
Guan Yue was close to eight feet tall, had a nice back and a big waist, so I came to laugh awkwardly, "I'm looking free, how's Fuchen lately?"
Li Tianhan's face showed a sad expression.
"Don't be in a hurry, maybe just temporarily, I'm sure he can handle this."
Hesitatingly, Guan Yue took out a jade bottle, "There's a refresher pill in it, maybe it's beneficial to him."
"Rejuvenation pills?"
Li Tianhan did not accept the pill, but instead looked on in bewilderment.
The refresher pill was not like an ordinary herb, but a pill that was worth thousands of high-grade yellow grade potions, only gold.
Although Guan Xue was engaged to Li Fuchen ever since being detained, and to give such a rare herb, it confused Li Tianhan.
Guan Yue was not happy: "This is just a concoction pill, isn't it to your liking??"
Being friends for so many years, Tianhan knew he was hiding something to Li.
Putting aside the jade bottle, Guan Yue reluctantly spoke, "Tianhan, this time I have a matter to discuss with you."
"Get out with that! You're grabbing my attention!"
Li Tian Han felt a disturbing unease flowing from the bottom of his heart.
Clearing her throat, "Just a week ago, my daughter Guan Xue's cultivation broke through to the seventh level of the Qi Realm."
"Seventh level, Qi Realm?"
Li Tianhan breathed in a cold air... Guan Xue and Li Fuchen were both 14 years old this year, yet he broke through to the seventh level of the Qi Realm.
If not for being old friends with Guan Yue, Li Tianhan would have thought that he was joking.
One should know that at the age of 15, Li Clan's current unrivalled genius Li Yunhai was only at the sixth level of the Qi Realm. Li Fuchen and Li Yunhe were only at the fourth level, a difference of three overall levels.
Li Tianhan asked, "If I don't mistakenly remember half a year ago, he just broke through to the sixth level?"
Guan Yue laughed bitterly, "This girl is talented, even to the point of cultivating our Guan Clan's Water Moon technique to the sixth level. You should also know, that at some point, techniques are much harder to develop than advancing to the Qi Stage . Those who can cultivate the Water Moon technique to the sixth level, without exception, can reach the Origin-Back Stage (Originally)."
Li Tianhan felt envy in his heart, "Talk about being unfair!"
"Sister Tianhan, my daughter has been recruited as a disciple of the Cang Lan Sect, so I'm afraid this engagement won't happen." Guan Yue felt she did not need to hide anymore and was more outspoken.
Li Tianhan's brows twitched, "They are young, the matter of marriage can be discussed at a better time."
Guan Yue started off in a serious tone, "This is also what my daughter wants, I expect Brother Tianhan's approval."
Crossing across Anger Tianhan's face, it looked at Guan Yue sternly, "What's wrong!?
Did the Guan Clan want to break their oath? It was the Guan Clan that initiated this engagement, but it was the Guan clan that pulled it, how do you treat my Li Clan! ? Is this how you treat me! ? Do you feel that, the Li Clan is weakening now and is unfit to join in the marriage with Li to have in your Guan Clan?"
"Brother Tianhan, my Guan Clan will make up for you. Please save this refreshment pill first, a few days later, my Guan Clan will offer our best lodging in Yunwu City to the Li Clan."
Guan Yue felt relieved, she had said what she wanted to say.
Yes, what Guan Yue said was not wrong, unity in marriage should have value. The Li Clan for the past ten years had no one recruited by the Cang Lan Sect, yet the value of the Guan Clan increased with a disciple being accepted into the Cang Lan Sect every two years.
This year, Guan Xue became a disciple of the Cang Lan Sect even before the annual election, and every disciple that was recruited earlier had great promise. If not for this, the Guan Clan would never have retreated from the engagement in a hurry.Since the Li Clan was still considered one of the four great clans, it was not, and still stronger than the rising Guan Clan.
Sadly, to Li Fuchen's disappointment, he did possess extraordinary talent, but a year ago, whether it was karma or not, his talent suddenly disappeared. Now being an incompetent person, how could he still be matched with the shining star of the Guan Clan, which was why the Guan Clan was unable to accept the marriage.
Moreover, Guan Xue did not want any business with this engagement and this was not the first time he had proposed to break off the engagement with Guan Yue. Guan Yue had been suppressing him all along, but she felt that she had treated the Li Clan with enough respect.
"My Clan Li won't accept pills nor lodging, we won't accept anything. Brother Guan Yue, this is the last time I will call you Brother, from now on, we no longer have any ties."
Li Tianhan felt his heart harden, the progress of the Guan Clan until now was due to the many supports from the Li Clan. But he never thought that the Guan Clan would burn a bridge after crossing a river (describing ingratitude).
"Brother Tianhan, since we have reached this impasse, there is nothing more to say, this time my Guan Clan is wrong, I say goodbye."
Sighing deeply, Guan Yue stood up from her chair and immediately left.
"Take your fucking pill."
Hand, Li Tianhan waved using his refined Qi and sent the bottle flying towards Guan Yue.
Reaching out to receive the bottle, Guan Yue left in silence.
...****************...
Destroy it!
As soon as Guan Yue left the hall, Li Tianhan smashed the armrest of his chair, his face blackened.
A few days later, the Guan Clan sent messengers for the dissolution of the marriage. At this moment, the entire Yunwu City was filled with news on the matter.
Unfeeling, the Li Clan and Li Fuchen had become laughingstocks.
After discussing about this, or about Guan Xue joining the Cang Lan Sect. Deep down, everyone knew that the Guan Clan would experience a meteoric awakening to the peak, because being accepted first to the Cang Lan Sect was a rare occurrence that only happened to food, but it was a rare occurrence, people or they heard it hundreds of years ago.
