Chapter One :Chapter 1

Lan Mountain City, Chen Family's Great Hall.

Sounds of chaos filled the ears, and Chen Xu's consciousness began to slowly return, his whole body feeling as if it had been disassembled. The intense pain made Chen Xu's eyebrows crease tightly.

However, as one of the most powerful God Kings under the divine emperors in the entire world, how could he succumb to this little pain?

"What happened? Haven't I died already?" A sense of bewilderment flashed in Chen Xu's eyes, perplexed.

Chen Xu remembered clearly. Under the siege of the four great divine emperors in the God Realm, he had detonated the Heart of Heaven with great fury, his soul completely obliterated, dead to the very core.

The next moment, a sudden sharp pain surged in his mind, and a slew of unfamiliar memories flashed before his eyes.

A sense of understanding flashed in Chen Xu's eyes, contemplating to himself, "So that's it...Tianwu Continent, Zhongzhou Ancient Domain, TianNan Kingdom's Lan Mountain city, Young Master of Chen family, Chen Xu... I have already died..."

"Chen Sihai, you are too selfish! As the head of the Chen family, all you think about is taking care of your grandson with the resources of the family. If Chen Xu were a martial arts genius, this old man would have no complaints. But he is clearly a waste, and yet you still use so many resources to nurture him, it is unjust, what would the other disciples think about that!"

Suddenly, a roar of accusations sounded by his ear, interrupting Chen Xu's train of thought.

"Elder is correct, we have more than your grandson as a disciple in the Chen family. If you allocate all resources to Chen Xu, what about the others?"

"Chen Sihai, you only care about your own grandson, your selfishness is too heavy..."

...

A cacophony of blame resonated in his ears, and Chen Xu lifted his head to see in the great hall, several faces that were familiar yet somewhat strange.

Through these new found memories in his mind, Chen Xu soon started recognizing the people in the hall.

In addition to himself, there were nine individuals, eight elders from the Chen family, and his grandfather, Chen Sihai, who was also the patriarch of the Chen family.

Thinking it over, Chen Xu soon realized what had happened.

Early this morning, Chen SiHai had given him a spritual blood essence grass. However, as soon as he had left the main hall, he ran into the Second Elder's grandson, Chen Yang.

In front of everyone, Chen Yang insulted his grandfather, calling him a sick old ghost, and him a good-for-nothing.

Angered, Chen Xu decided to punch Chen Yang.

But he was only in the post-celestial Triple Heaven, whereas Chen Yang was already in the post-celestial Quintuple Heaven. He was no match at all and was quickly knocked to the ground, losing consciousness.

"So that's how I got injured. Chen Yang... daring to lay a hand on me, he's as good as dead!"

A hint of an inscrutable murderous intent flashed in Chen Xu's eyes, cold light flickering.

In his previous life, he was known as the Seven Kills God King, a nearly invincible existence among the many God Kings. He certified his own body with killing, with strong murderous thoughts.

With one thought, rivers of blood and mountains of bones are created.

"Xu'er, you're awake."

A voice suddenly sounded in his ear. Chen Xu turned his head to look at the old man, his eyes muddled but full of loving and somewhat pained expressions.

Maybe influenced by the remnant thoughts of "Chen Xu", he felt an indescribable familiarity towards the Chen SiHai in front of him.

"Grandfather, I'm fine." Chen Xu forced a smile at the corner of his mouth and reassured him.

Bam!

A loud noise interrupted the conversation between the grandfather and the grandson.

“Chen Sihai! Let me tell you, you're too selfish right now. You only think about cultivating your grandson, not suitable to be the head of our Chen family anymore!”

Chen Xu glanced over, his brows slightly furrowed.

The one who banged the table was the eldest elder of the Chen family, the only person who could contest Chen Sihai's authority; also a peak Houtian-stage existence.

"Humph! Chen Sihai, you see it yourself. The entire Chen family is now upset because of you and your grandson, what do you have to say?”

At this moment, an old man seated beside the eldest elder coldly huffed, his face was somber.

The second elder of the Chen family.

From his memory, the original position of the head of the Chen family should have been the second elder’s, but subsequently, Chen Sihai rose to power, becoming the top person in the Chen family, hence taking over the master's throne.

The second elder had been peaceful in the past, but since a year ago, when the news spread that Chen Sihai had suffered severe injuries, the second elder had become rather active, his intentions were clear as day.

A gleam flashed in Chen Xu's eyes. In his past life, he had cultivated from an ordinary person to the realm of God King, living for tens of thousands of years, his experiences were rich, and naturally, he instantly spotted the trickery.

Moreover, the one who injured him was also this man's grandson.

Chen Xu’s lips curled up faintly. He glanced at the second elder and looked at the eldest elder, speaking mildly, “Then, Eldest Elder, how do you think I should be handled?”

The calm voice resounded in the hall, causing a momentary pause in everyone present.

Everyone looked at Chen Xu in shock. They all knew very well; even though Chen Xu was Chen Sihai's grandson, he was not only renowned as a waste in martial arts within the Chen family, but he was also timid and fearful.

In their presence, he was usually barely able to speak a word. However, the tone of his speech just now was remarkably calm.

He glanced at the slightly stunned elders of the Chen family, and his grandfather, Chen Sihai.

Chen Xu sighed helplessly. From his memories, it was evident that Chen Si Hai's difficulties as the Clan Head, and the subsequent criticisms from the elders largely originated from him.

If he had been a bit more assertive, Chen Si Hai wouldn't have had to encounter such embarrassing situations in the Chen family.

The Grand Elder was slightly startled, he spoke coldly, "We must follow the clan rules. If you cannot reach the Postnatal Fifth Level before the age of sixteen, you will be expelled from the main lineage and will not be allowed to benefit from the family resources for further martial arts cultivation."

Chen Xu raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly, "As the Grand Elder has said."

Chen Si Hai's expression drastically changed, he was about to intervene when the Second Elder intercepted with a cold laugh "Good, Chen Xu, since you've agreed, you should know that there's less than three months left…"

"No need for the Second Elder to worry about that." Chen Xu calmly interrupted him.

"Hmph!" The Second Elder's face darkened as he was interrupted by the youngster. He sneered, "As long as you're aware."

Chen Si Hai looked increasingly somber, he turned to Chen Xu and said sullenly, "Xu’er, what are you…"

"Grandfather, there's no need for you to worry. Breaking through to the Postnatal Fifth Level in three months isn't difficult," Chen Xu chuckled, his eyes full of self-assurance.

Calm, confident, composed.

For him, achieving the Postnatal Fifth Level within three months didn’t seem challenging.

"Hmph!" The Grand Elder snorted with an unconvinced expression.

The Second Elder smirked with a mocking glint in his eyes, "Well since you've said so, then we'll take our leave!"

The elders stood up one after another, and after a while, only the grandfather-grandson duo were left in the grand hall.

Chen Si Hai looked grave, he pondered and said, "Xu'er, I know you are not reckless, but this time, you've rushed into it. Now, since you have agreed to the Grand Elder's demand, does it mean that you've already broken through to the Postnatal Fourth Level?"

Chen Xu shook his head, smiling, "Not yet, but it should be soon. Grandpa, I'm confident I can break through to the fifth level of the acolyte stage in three months."

Chen Si Hai's eyes flashed with a hint of complexity. Clearly, he didn't believe Chen Xu's words, but he said, "Since you have confidence, then grandpa won't stop you... I still have a Purple Ginseng here. Take it first and try to break through as soon as possible."

Chen Si Hai apparently didn't take the words of the senior elders to heart. He took out a wooden box from his bosom, handed it to Chen Xu, gave him a few instructions, and then asked Chen Xu to leave.

It was tough returning to his small courtyard, his body was in unbearable pain. Chen Xu frowned tightly, "I should first take care of my wounds, so as not to leave any lingering ailments."

Once he returned to his room, Chen Xu crossed his legs and sat down, forming a strange hand gesture with both hands, and slowly closed his eyes.

Boom!

His body trembled lightly, as the true Qi inside his body started to circulate.
