The old butler's insinuation just now, of course, Wang Junze understood, but he likewise didn't care at all.
The Meridian Opening Pill was given to him by Xin'er, and anyone who wanted to take it had to first face the sword in his hand!
After saying this, Wang Junze immediately turned around and walked out, without even packing anything, just a man and a sword, calmly stepping out of the Wang Family's gate.
With a sigh, the old butler did not persuade him any further, slowly turned around, and returned to Wang Cheng's study.
"He left?"
In the study, Wang Cheng sat on a chair, not even raising his head, asking calmly.
"Yes!" The old butler nodded lightly and replied softly, "Young Master Junze left without taking anything with him."
"Doesn't know life and death!" Wang Cheng snorted coldly and replied indifferently, "Does he really think he can take the Meridian Opening Pill away?"
"Young Master Junze has a stubborn temperament, and Wang Xin has always been at odds with him. I'm afraid if a conflict arises, there will be danger." The old butler said with some concern.
"Such a fool is not worthy to be my son. Even if he dies, he deserves it!" Wang Cheng responded indifferently, "Do not interfere with him! This is his own choice. Since he left... I will consider him dead!"
....
After leaving the Wang Family, Wang Junze slightly determined the direction and then headed straight towards Jubei City.
Yongning Town, where the Wang Family was located, was not far from Jubei City, only more than a hundred miles away. If he walked quickly, he could reach Jubei City by evening.
Although he failed to open his meridians back then, in the past three years, Wang Junze had persisted in practicing the sword every day, so his body was definitely not weak. Such a short distance wasn't a problem, but now that he was penniless, finding a place to settle in a big city like Jubei City would not be easy.
Walking all the way, after about an hour or so, suddenly a sound of galloping hooves emerged behind Wang Junze.
"Trash, stop right there for me!"
From afar, before anyone even arrived, Wang Junze heard a familiar scolding voice.
Indeed, they still came!
Slightly narrowing his eyes, Wang Junze felt no panic inside, but rather an unusual calmness.
From the moment he left the Wang Family, he understood that some people would not let him leave easily with the Meridian Opening Pill.
Slowly stopping, Wang Junze turned around, quietly waiting for the other party to approach.
"Trash, you sure run fast, making it hard for me to catch up with you."
Riding on the horse, a round-faced little fat boy looked at Wang Junze with contempt, lifting the bridle as he mocked, "Do you still not realize you're trash? You think you can leave with the Meridian Opening Pill? Do you deserve it?"
In no time, several other members of the Wang Family followed him, surrounding Wang Junze, jeering collectively.
Wang Junze looked up and glanced at them. They were all familiar faces, mostly collateral descendants from his second uncle's line, and these were the ones who mocked him daily.
As for the little fat boy in charge, it was naturally his second uncle's son and his cousin, Wang Xin.
"Won't you even call me bro?"
Looking at Wang Xin, Wang Junze's mouth curled into a sardonic smirk as he calmly spoke, "Three years ago, you used to follow me every day calling me brother!"
"Bah! Wang Junze, do you still think it's three years ago?" Spitting fiercely, Wang Xin said arrogantly: "Back then you were the Wang Family prodigy, everyone said you were a Sword Dao genius, but what happened? You, this piece of trash, couldn't even open a meridian!"
"Just because I failed to open my meridians, I'm no longer your brother?" Wang Junze asked back with a cold smile.
"I don't have a useless cousin like you!" Wang Xin said contemptuously: "Moreover, you've already been expelled from the Wang Family, even your father doesn't acknowledge you, this trash, what right do you have to call yourself my brother?"
"That's true, since I've left the Wang Family, there's naturally no connection between us anymore... Wang Xin, what do you want to do? Just say it directly!"
Wang Junze wasn't angry, just asked calmly, nodding his head.
Extending his hand, Wang Xin burst into arrogant laughter.
"Hand over the Meridian Opening Pill! Then kneel down and kowtow three times to me, and I'll spare your life!"
"Haha, exactly, kneel and kowtow to our Young Master Xin for mercy!" The other Wang Family collateral descendants jeered along: "Trash should have the awareness of trash, understand?"
"Spare my life?"
Slightly narrowing his eyes, Wang Junze said coldly: "So, if I refuse, will you kill me?"
"And what if I do?" Wang Xin said disdainfully: "My father said to spare your life, but... keeping you, this piece of trash, around is always a hassle. If you really managed to run to the Cloud Mirror Sect and complain to Wang Xin, wouldn't that be a problem for me?"
A sinister smile appeared on Wang Xin's face as he said meanly: "To tell you the truth, no matter what, you can't escape death today!"
At this moment, Wang Junze's expression finally changed.
Before, when Wang Xin pursued him, Wang Junze just thought the other party wanted to snatch the Meridian Opening Pill, but he didn't expect that the other party would be so malicious and actually wanted to kill him.
Indeed, although his father didn't care about his life or death, Xin'er was very close to him. If Xin'er returned one day and found out about this, she surely wouldn't let Wang Xin off.
But if they killed him, there would naturally be plenty of excuses to shift the blame. After all... it was he who wanted to leave the Wang Family. What's so special about an Innate Wasted Vein dying outside without the Wang Family's protection?
So, naturally, silencing him would be the best choice.
Yet... this kind of venomous mindset, how could there be even a shred of familial affection?
