"Pfft!"
Shen Yunting let out a scream, blood gushing from his mouth. He stared in disbelief at the palm that struck his chest, feeling as if his ribcage was about to cave in. His body flew backward like a kite with its string cut.
"Big Brother!" Shen Yunlei's eyes widened in rage and despair at the sight. He roared, disregarding everything, and lunged at Chen Yuantu, his long knife slicing through the air with an unstoppable force, as if intending to cleave Chen Yuantu in half.
"Looking for death!" A glint of cold light flashed in Chen Yuantu's eyes as he kicked out, landing squarely in Shen Yunlei's abdomen.
"Ah!" Shen Yunlei let out a muffled groan, his body crashing into a large tree like a cannonball before sliding helplessly to the ground.
"Second Brother!" Shen Yunting struggled to rise from the ground, looking at Shen Yunlei lying in a pool of blood, filled with grief and fury. His eyes turned red, resembling a madman as he charged toward Chen Yuantu, intent on fighting him to the death.
"You dare to be so arrogant like an ant before me!" Chen Yuantu's eyes flashed with murderous intent as he struck out with his palm, hitting Shen Yunting squarely in the chest.
"Pfft!" Shen Yunting spat out another mouthful of blood, his breath weak and his spirit utterly deflated.
"Chen Yuantu, you beast! Even if Old Madam becomes a ghost, she won't spare you!" Shen Zhentian cried out in utter despair as he looked at his two sons lying in pools of blood. He struggled to rise but collapsed helplessly back to the ground, blood staining the earth beneath him.
In just a few breaths' time, Chen Yuantu had severely injured them all. "Old fool, don't forget that our Qian Sheng Empire values strength above all! Even if I wipe out your entire Shen Family, no one will say a word!"
Chen Yuantu cast a cold glance at Shen Zhentian, a cruel glimmer flashing in his eyes. "Now I'll send your whole family to hell!" A cruel smile curled at the corners of Chen Yuantu's mouth.
Once he killed the members of the Shen Family, those two little brats would naturally be at his mercy. With that thought, he slowly raised his right hand. In his palm, a dazzling golden light began to coalesce, emanating an unsettling and terrifying aura.
Shen Zhentian watched as the golden light grew brighter and brighter, filled with fear and despair. Today, it seemed that their Shen Family was doomed to face calamity.
"Stop!" At that moment, a crisp voice suddenly rang out.
Chen Yuantu frowned and impatiently turned to look, only to see Chen Li glaring at him with an expression of anger, cold light flashing in his eyes.
"What do you want, little bastard?" Chen Yuantu looked at Chen Li, a flicker of disgust and disdain crossing his gaze.
"I'll say it again, stop!" Chen Li ignored Chen Yuantu's mockery and coldly repeated himself.
Chen Yuantu was instantly enraged. How dare a mere little bastard act so recklessly in front of him!
"What are you even? How dare you order me around?"
Chen Yuantu laughed in anger, golden light surging in his hand as he reached for Chen Li.
Chen Li stood his ground, his small frame swaying like a sapling about to be broken by the wind. Yet, his gaze remained exceptionally firm, showing no signs of fear. As the golden light approached, he could even feel the suffocating pressure, but he did not flinch, allowing Chen Yuantu to grab him as if he were a chick.
"Let him go!" Shen Qingyue cried out in anguish, struggling to rise but fainting again due to her severe injuries.
Chen Li glanced down at his sister before raising his head to meet Chen Yuantu's furious eyes. He spoke clearly and deliberately: "If you let my maternal uncle go, I will return with you to Wuding Marquisate."
Chen Yuantu laughed in rage, as if he had heard the biggest joke: "Little bastard, who do you think you're negotiating with? What do you think you are?"
Unfazed, Chen Li replied coldly: "What am I? I am the Legitimate Son of Wuding Marquisate! If you dare harm my maternal family today, who in this capital will not know that you, Chen Yuantu, are ungrateful and have murdered your own kin? At that point, do you think your title as Marquis will still hold? Will that Saint in the imperial city still favor you?"
His words fell like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the raging fire of anger within Chen Yuantu.
A shock ran through him; this little bastard may be young but his thoughts were indeed vicious!
Chen Li was absolutely right. Although he held immense power now, he was ultimately just a pawn in the imperial city. Once he bore such a notorious name, it would not be long before he faced abandonment and a lack of cultivation resources!
He had worked hard to attain his current status; there was no way he would throw it all away for two little bastards!
The killing intent in Chen Yuantu's eyes gradually faded, replaced by a deep calculation.
He fixed his gaze on Chen Li as if trying to see through him: "If I don't make things difficult for them, will you really come back with me to Wuding Marquisate?"
Of course, Chen Li nodded without hesitation. "Even a tiger does not eat its own cubs. Between us father and son, what unresolved issues could there be? As long as you agree to spare them, I guarantee that not a single word about today will escape my lips."
Chen Yuantu looked at Chen Li's youthful face and sneered inwardly.
This little bastard certainly knew how to use words against him.
However, as long as this little bastard dared to follow him back to Wuding Marquisate, how he dealt with these two little bastards would naturally be up to him.
Fine then; today he would spare their lives. Once they returned to the marquisate, he could slowly teach these two little bastards a lesson!
"I promise you!"
Chen Yuantu suddenly threw Chen Li to the ground, his tone chilling.
Then, as if not fully convinced, he glared at the small Chen Li, as if to threaten him.
"Kid, you better keep your word, or I will make you regret ever coming into this world!"
Chen Li was dazed from the fall, but he quickly shook off the pain and scrambled to his feet.
He rushed to Shen Zhentian's side, anxiously asking, "Grandfather, how are you all doing?"
At that moment, Shen Zhentian was at his last gasp. He trembled as he tried to reach out and touch Chen Li's face, but his hand fell weakly to his side.
"Child, you foolish boy!" Shen Zhentian's voice was weak, filled with deep sorrow and self-reproach. "How could you risk your life for us?"
"Grandfather, don't speak! You all need to heal. Once Li grows up, we'll come back to honor you!" Chen Li fought back tears as he helped Shen Zhentian up.
"It's useless," Shen Zhentian said with a bitter smile. "We... we won't survive." *Cough cough.*
"That won't happen, Grandfather! You all will be fine!" Chen Li shook his head vigorously, his big eyes brimming with confidence.
Even Shen Zhentian could see that Chen Li showed no signs of worry or fear. It was as if he was about to embark on a simple journey for leisure.
Chen Yuantu looked at the sorrowful Shen family with impatience. "You little brat, are you done yet? I don't have that much patience!"
Hearing Chen Yuantu's urging made Chen Li's small face scrunch up in distress.
Although his mindset was no longer that of a mere child, having experienced reincarnation once, he still felt a pang of reluctance.
"Grandfather, take care of yourself and Mother, Uncles! When Shen Qingyue and I grow up, we will definitely come back!"
