"I didn't give you a chance!"
Wang Cheng's face turned cold as he slowly said, "Three years ago, I took you to Jubei City, and the City Lord himself helped you to open your veins, but what was the result? You couldn't open a single meridian; you're destined to be without hope in cultivation!"
"Who says there's no hope in cultivation? I've been diligently practicing my swordsmanship every day, and I can open my veins soon..." Wang Junze argued excitedly, but before he could finish his sentence, he was forcibly interrupted again.
"It's been three years, and you still haven't faced reality! What's the use of going to the Martial Arts Arena to practice swordsmanship every day? What meaning does it have other than attracting ridicule?"
After a pause, Wang Cheng continued, "Xin'er is naive, but I can't let her mess around! What use is it to have taken the Meridian Opening Pill? Even if you barely open a meridian, can you cultivate?"
"Do you expect Xin'er to find a way to get you a second, a third pill? Do you know the price Xin'er paid for that elixir?"
With a fierce glint in his eyes, Wang Cheng coldly said, "I am here to end your hopes! Not only this Meridian Opening Pill, but starting tomorrow, you're not allowed to waste time on cultivation anymore. Follow the family disciples into business and be an ordinary person!"
"And what if I refuse?"
Raising his head, looking at his father, Wang Junze slowly asked.
"Then you will no longer be my son, nor a member of the Wang Family; leave the family... and fend for yourself!"
"Hahaha!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Junze laughed bitterly.
This is his father, cold and unfeeling, seeing only the interests of the family!
For the past three years, the reason he was mocked every day was because of this father's indifference, wasn't it? Otherwise, as a direct descendant of the Wang Family, even if he couldn't cultivate, who would dare to laugh at him?
"Fine, since father considers me a waste, then... I'll leave the Wang Family! From now on, I have nothing to do with the Wang Family!"
Raising his head, Wang Junze replied decisively.
After saying this, Wang Junze immediately turned and left!
"Wait!"
Watching Wang Junze leave, Wang Cheng spoke again, "Wait until Xin'er returns to the sect tomorrow, then you can leave! Also, don't let Xin'er know about this, understand?"
It's not pleading for him to stay; it's just fear of affecting Wang Xin. Hearing such words only adds to the chilling feeling.
However, Wang Junze already didn't care anymore.
"Don't worry, I care about Xin'er more than you do!"
After saying this, Wang Junze strode out of the room.
In the past three years, if there was anything in this family that he cared about, it was only this sister. Naturally, he wouldn't let his sister know about these matters.
"Whew!"
Walking out of the room, Wang Junze exhaled deeply, as if he wanted to release the breath he had held for the past three years.
A single Meridian Opening Pill, in fact, Wang Junze didn't care at all!
What he cared about was his sister's intentions. This was what she had exchanged her own cultivation resources for, and for this reason alone, he wouldn't hand over the Meridian Opening Pill.
Moreover, his father's cold attitude had completely disappointed Wang Junze, and such a Wang Family... was not worth staying with!
As for himself, having such an Innate Wasted Vein, what's the use of practicing swordsmanship?
Soon enough, they will naturally understand what a true prodigious genius is!
"Brother, you're out? What did Dad say to you?"
Soon, Wang Xin approached again with a cheerful smile and asked.
"Nothing much, just telling me not to embarrass the Wang Family." Smiling, he patted his sister's head, and Wang Junze replied nonchalantly.
"Don't mind him. Ever since Mom left, he's been like this! Brother, I believe in you; you can definitely succeed in opening your veins!" The little girl hugged Wang Junze's arm again and said, "Come on, I want something delicious; brother, make it for me!"
....
"Big brother, how did it go, did you get the Meridian Opening Pill back?"
At the same time, Wang Zhao walked into Wang Cheng's room and asked.
"No!" Shaking his head, Wang Cheng calmly replied, "He'd rather leave the Wang Family than hand over the Meridian Opening Pill."
"That brat, what does a wasted vein need a Meridian Opening Pill for?" Hearing this, Wang Zhao's face immediately turned extremely grim as he angrily cursed, "Big brother, I've already promised Junze about this; what should we do now, you must have a plan."
"Why are you so anxious?"
Giving his second brother a cold glance, Wang Cheng replied indifferently, "Xin'er is only temporarily back and will return to the sect tomorrow. Then, let Wang Xin request it from Junze himself; are you really afraid of not getting it back?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhao's eyelid twitched slightly and immediately understood his big brother's intentions.
It seemed that his big brother truly did not care about this wasted son. Never mind that by then Wang Junze would have been expelled from the Wang Family; even if not, if Wang Xin took action to seize the Meridian Opening Pill, it would at most be considered youthful mischief, with no real punishment.
As long as they were careful not to take the boy's life, no matter how severe the action, it would be a minor issue.
After pondering, Wang Zhao spoke again, "The only concern is that boy might heedlessly consume the Meridian Opening Pill today..."
He didn't care about Wang Junze's life or death, but there was only one Meridian Opening Pill. If it were consumed early, even killing Wang Junze would be too late.
"With his character, he wouldn't take the pill and open his veins in front of Xin'er."
With a calm demeanor, Wang Cheng confidently replied.
Wang Junze had a Innate Wasted Vein, and a single Meridian Opening Pill was not enough for him to open his veins into the path of cultivation, so he wouldn't let Wang Xin, his sister, see him fail to open his veins again. If he were to try, it would definitely be after Wang Xin left.
"Thank you, big brother!"
Wang Zhao also came to the same realization, showing a hint of joy on his face as he cupped his fists in salute.
