Chapter 737: A Pitiful Person
Chapter 737: A Pitiful Person
Xu Long and his wife could not believe that their proudest daughter had actually been defeated in a battle against someone of the same realm.
What is the origin of the little baby on the other side, and what are those strange wings of light?
The light wings moved without any fluctuation, teleporting short distances like an instant, making them impossible to defend against during attacks.
"Bad guys, it's your turn."
After defeating Xu Mingzhu, Xiao Ling'er turned her attention to the rest of the Xu family.
The First Madam and Xu Long were given special attention. Relying on her super speed, Xiao Ling'er controlled her strength and used the couple as punching bags, sending them flying left and right. In the end, the First Madam was even pinned to the ground and beaten up with her little fists by the little girl.
The First Madam was beaten black and blue, but at least she was still alive. The worst off was Xu Wen, who was beaten until his skin was torn and bleeding, and he could barely breathe.
"nailed it."
After finishing her work, Xiao Ling'er ran back to Xu Chen and the Second Madam.
The second wife's condition is relatively stable. She had previously taken a miraculous healing medicine, and the remaining medicinal properties are enough to repair the penetrating wound caused by the maid.
"Ling'er, thank you."
Xu Chen was filled with gratitude. If it weren't for the little girl, he and his mother would be dead, and some things would have to be settled.
"Mother, wait for me."
Xu Chen's eyes were dark as he lowered his head, picked up a knife, and walked toward Xu Mingzhu, who was lying on the ground.
He wants to dig out the bone and take back the one that the Xu family took from him!
"You little bastard, how dare you!"
"Don't touch my daughter!"
The First Madam and Xu Long struggled but couldn't get up, and the other members of the Xu family were also unable to move and could only watch helplessly.
At this moment, the Xu family's house was reduced to ruins, and a crowd of people gathered on the street in the distance, pointing and whispering.
Ignoring the stares of the outsiders, Xu Chen coldly walked past Xu Long. Suddenly, Xu Long grabbed his ankle, his bloodshot eyes filled with madness, "Mingzhu is your cousin, how could you harm her!"
"If you can harm my mother, why can't I?"
"Mingzhu is born a supreme being, destined to become an unparalleled emperor. That is the glory of my Xu family!"
"So what if she becomes the Supreme Emperor? What does that have to do with me and my mother?"
Xu Chen, holding his knife, looked mockingly at Xu Long, who was shouting. Before the latter could say anything, Xu Chen swept his knife across him.
Xu Long screamed in agony as the hand gripping Xu Chen's ankle was severed.
The Xu family members present were stunned, and only then did they realize that the Xu family was finished.
"You little bastard, you dare touch my daughter? I'll never forgive you!"
The First Madam struggled to crawl toward Xu Mingzhu, but Xu Chen was much faster and went straight to Xu Mingzhu's side.
Xu Mingzhu was seriously injured. She lay weakly on the ground, clutching her chest and unable to move. However, as a born supreme being, even at this moment, her eyes did not change, remaining as proud as ever.
Xu Chen raised his knife and said to the First Madam, who was still crawling in the shadows, "So what if I touched her? Madam, there's always a cause and effect. What can you do to me?"
"don't want--"
The First Lady wailed hysterically, tears mingling with blood streaming down her face.
Chen Futu and Fu Shuang couldn't help but sigh at the sight.
As the saying goes, every pitiful person has something hateful about them.
I have no one to blame but myself for getting to this point; it's all because of my greed back then.
Even if we take a step back and say that the Xu family had treated the Second Madam better back then, given her gentle nature, she would most likely have accepted it and wouldn't have asked the younger generation to take back the divine bone. In the end, it was the Xu family's malicious intentions that led them to seize someone else's foundation and then betray them. It was all retribution.
Amidst the flames-scorched ruins, Xu Chen withdrew his gaze and swiftly brought down his knife on Xu Mingzhu, who was utterly powerless to resist.
puff!
The knife plunged straight into Xu Mingzhu's heart.
Xu Mingzhu convulsed in pain, clenching her teeth and remaining silent, her fingernails tearing the stone slab to shreds.
Xu Chen sheathed the knife, reached into the wound, and pulled out a piece of blood-stained, gold-pink bone.
"It really is a divine bone; it's been well-nurtured within Xu Mingzhu's body."
Fu Shuang clicked her tongue in amazement.
Divine bones are rare; even the God of War rarely sees them.
Chen Futu asked, "Can this divine bone be transplanted back?"
"Who knows."
Fu Shuangping smiled.
She was very curious about how the second wife would handle this divine bone.
Xu Mingzhu lay dying in a pool of blood, and the First Madam finally crawled to her side. Seeing the horrific injuries on her body, she wept uncontrollably, "Mingzhu, sob sob sob, it's all my fault..."
Xu Mingzhu shook her head weakly, "The path to supremacy is invincible, why should I borrow someone else's bones? Mother, I have also gone astray."
"It's not your fault, it's your mother's greed that has ruined you."
Hoping their sons will become dragons and their daughters will become phoenixes.
With her son prodigal, the First Madam pinned all her hopes on Xu Mingzhu, thinking that Xu Mingzhu could lead the Xu family to its peak. But in the end, it all came to naught, which was both laughable and pitiful.
Xu Mingzhu remained silent, gazing blankly at the sky, a tear of blood silently sliding down her cheek. "Over the years, I have been in seclusion, constantly fighting. I have been diligently cultivating, trying not to disappoint my clansmen. But I know that no matter how far I go in the future, I will never be able to live up to my third uncle's family. My foundation will never be perfect. This is the punishment I deserve."
Xu Mingzhu's voice trailed off at this point.
Chen Futu and Fu Shuang in the thatched cottage showed surprise, "This is, understanding my Dao heart."
Because her family took someone else's bones and placed them on her body, her character was flawed, and her foundation could never be perfected.
What is stolen is ultimately stolen; it is not something one is born with. One will always feel awkward about it, which is not conducive to spiritual practice.
Xu Mingzhu is dead, but she still retains a faint trace of life. This state is very strange. Others cannot see it, but Chen Futu and Fu Shuang can see it clearly.
Xu Mingzhu's fundamental flaws are being repaired; she is undergoing a transformation, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, and is about to enter the realm of true innate supreme beings.
Unfortunately, the Xu family was unaware of this.
"Mingzhu'er is dead! It's all over, everything is over!"
"I told you long ago that you'd be punished for doing that! And now it's come true, Xu family, haha, Xu family!"
"Why did this happen? Why!"
The Xu family members looked at their home, now reduced to ruins, and laughed and cried at the same time, as if they had gone mad.
The First Madam lay on Xu Mingzhu's body, sobbing and wailing. Xu Long, as if all his strength had been drained, lay on the ground, letting the blood gushed from his wounds. "Gone, all gone. The Xu family is finished too. In the end, it was all for nothing. Hahaha!"
Xu Chen ignored the madmen.
He presented the blood-stained divine bones to the Second Madam, sobbing, "Mother, what belongs to you, your son has brought back for you."
The second wife didn't look at the divine bone; she was more worried about her son. That knife strike had severed the foundation of the Xu family and shattered the clansmen's wild dreams. Xu Chen was also a member of the Xu family; would his character be affected?
“Mother, don’t worry. Just as Ling’er said, they are all bad people. There’s no need to be merciful when dealing with bad people.”
