Shan Lingfei muttered, "Xiao Tong, I'm not stopping you from taking revenge, but the people you want to take revenge on have much too high cultivation!" Shan Lingfei spat out another mouthful of blood. He knelt on the ground, using his sword to support his weight.
He wiped the blood from the side of his mouth and said as if he had thought of something, "No, I can't let the child suffer any harm. He's still so young. He's not a match for those people."
He could not see Shi Letong's cultivation level. He thought that he had used some magic treasure to cover his cultivation level.
He had never thought that the young man actually had the cultivation level of the intermediate stage of the aurous core stage. Moreover, the young man had many magic treasures with him. He actually had the ability to challenge people of a higher level.
In the continent, no one below the nascent soul stage would be Xiao Tong's match.
Moreover, Xiao Tong was now more mature than when he was three years old. He would definitely not act rashly. He had thoroughly inquired about the Shan family's experts. Their highest level cultivator was at the peak of aurous core stage, and there was no nascent soul stage grandmaster.
Therefore, he had no fear at all!
...
Another big piece of news came out of the imperial capital.
The Genius of the Shan family, Shan Lingfei, who had been away from home for fourteen years, had returned.
At the same time, Shan Lingfei's cultivation had already reached early aurous core stage! As expected of the genius of the Shan family.
Shan Lingfei managed to reach aurous core stage with his pure water spirit root at the young age of just over 100 years old.
"Good, good, it's good that you're back!" The head of the Shan family and the others were all very happy.
"Fei 'Er, since you're back, I'll announce to everyone that you're still the heir of our Shan family!" The Shan family head said very happily.
Shan Lingfei's tone was cold as he said, "Do whatever you like!"
He did not come back to be the heir of the Shan family.
He wanted to come back because...
The second young master of the Shan family had been the heir of the Shan family for more than a dozen years, but his big brother had suddenly returned.
The fact that he had been stripped of his position as the heir of the Shan family really made him very angry.
However, he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction or resistance at all.
In terms of aptitude, he was not as good as Shan Lingfei.
In terms of cultivation, he was not as high as Shan Lingfei.
Therefore, his only way to return to his position as the heir was to destroy his brother's aptitude and cultivation. He knew he couldn't win Shan Lingfei in a fight head-on, but he could do it secretly.
When he was young, Shan Lingfei was a good big brother. Now, he acted like Shan Lingfei's good little brother again.
However, as time passed, everyone would change.
In the past, Shan Lingfei was very good to this little brother. He did not guard against this little brother at all.
However, when his wife and son were framed by the Shan family, and he was crippled, his good younger brother knocked him when he was down. Shan Lingfei was not an idiot. He treated the Shan Family so well, but they had all betrayed him. How could he not be wary of them?
He knew that his younger brother was very dissatisfied with his sudden return. He even had anger and resentment. Therefore, he wanted to see what exactly his brother was trying to do by suddenly befriending him.
Shan Lingfei's little brother wanted to restore their childhood relationship.
"Big Brother," one day, his younger brother took out a medicinal pill and said excitedly, "Big Brother, I know that you're heavily injured and haven't recovered yet. I've gone to the auction house and bid for a rejuvenation pill for you. Come, quickly eat it. Your injuries will be healed instantly!"
Shan Lingfei looked at the medicinal pill that his good younger brother had taken out. With a sniff, he could smell the smell of the spirit blockage powder inside even though it was covered up nicely.
His little brother was really 'kind' to him. However, he had underestimated his older brother. Did he think Shan Lingwei would be so easily fooled? The young man was too naive.
However, Shan Lingfei still ate the pill in front of his younger brother and said with a touching expression, "Thank you, younger brother. You're really my good brother. In the future, elder brother will definitely repay you properly."
There was a double meaning to his words, but clearly, Shan Lingyu didn't get it.
When he saw his brother eat the pill, his eyes immediately lit up. His face could not hide his excitement.
He kept screaming in his heart, 'This is great. He ate the pill.
'Now, I just need to wait. Soon, his pure water spirit root will be destroyed!
'Then, I'll be the heir again.'
When Shan Lingyu left Shan Lingfei's room, a cold and angry youth's voice suddenly sounded in Shan Lingfei's ear. "Idiot! You clearly know that it's poison, so why did you eat it?" Shi Letong suddenly appeared in his room.
"Tong 'Er!" When Shan Lingfei heard the child's voice, he became extremely excited. His face appeared to be very happy.
Shi Letong rolled his eyes when he saw Shan Lingfei's silly smile. He asked again, "Why did you eat that poison?"
Shan Lingfei came back to his senses and was stunned. Then, he asked, "Tong 'Er, are you concerned about me?"
"Who is concerned about you?" Shi Letong said with a disdainful look.
But Shan Lingfei was happy.
He could hear his son's concern for him from his disdainful tone.
He was unusually excited. He explained, "Tong 'Er, I didn't eat the pill!"
Then, Shan Lingfei stretched out his hand and opened his fist. Inside was the pill that Shan Lingyu had sent over. He said with a smile, "This poison is here. When I took the poison from him, I exchanged it with the rejuvenation pill that you gave me. I actually ate your pill!"
Shi Letong, "..." I knew Shan Lingfei is not that stupid.
Shi Letong asked with a serious expression, "Did you suddenly return to the Shan family to stop me from taking revenge?"
This man had severed ties with the Shan Family fourteen years ago. He knew what his family did to his wife and son. Why did he suddenly return to the Shan family? And it was right after meeting his son?
Therefore, the only explanation was that he wanted to stop Xiao Tong from taking revenge on the Shan family.
When they first met, Xiao Tong had probed his attitude, and Shan Lingfei wanted to stop him. This time, Xiao Tong wanted to know Shan Lingfei's real purpose for returning.
When Shan Lingfei heard Xiao Tong's question, his expression became unusually serious, "Xiao Tong, listen to me. The Shan family is not as simple as it looks. The Shan family has been in existence for thousands of years. When the ancestor of the Shan family ascended, he left something for his descendants. These are all the foundations of the Shan family.
"Otherwise, the Shan family would have been exterminated long ago!"
Shi Letong said very seriously, "Don't worry. I won't exterminate the Shan family. At least I won't hurt you. I just want to seek revenge on the person who framed my mother and hurt her!"
Shan Lingfei,"..." that was not what he meant.
Shan Lingfei took a deep breath and said directly, "Tong 'Er, don't you understand? You're the one I care about!
"As for the Shan family, I've given up on them fourteen years ago. I have no feelings for them at all!"
Sh Letong looked at his father's sincere face seriously and then asked sharply, "So, I'm now asking you. When I seek revenge against the Shan family, which side are you on?
"My side, the Shan Family's side, or neither side?"
Even though Shan Lingfei said that he had no feelings for his parents, they were blood relatives after all. They were connected by blood. When it came to the issue of life and death, would he let his parents be murdered by their grandson?
Shan Lingfei was silent for a moment before he said in a very worried and serious manner, "Xiao Tong, listen to me.
"If you want to take revenge, of course, I won't stop you. "However, do you know how many experts the Shan family has?
"What kind of foundation do they have? Even the Heavenly Gate sect would not dare to attack the Shan family easily. Otherwise, based on the enmity between the two parties, the Heavenly Gate sect would have long wiped out the entire Shan family, wouldn't it?"
Shi Letong said with slight anger and impatience, "I don't care how many experts the Shan family has or how deep their foundations are. I'm telling you now. I'll come and take revenge in three days!"
With that, Shi Letong's figure flashed, and he disappeared.
Shan Lingfei panicked and shouted, "Tong 'Er, don't be impulsive!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the entire Shan family heard a voice.
"Three days later, Shi Xiaohe's son will come to take revenge!
"Shan family, are you ready?"
The Shan family was in chaos!
