“Qingxue, I’m truly relieved that you were able to think it through so quickly,” Lu Wuchen said as he gently patted Su Qingxue’s back.
He had not expected that after seeing Lin Tianyang in that state, Qingxue would recover so fast.
“Young Master, let’s go in. It’s been quite some time. Yang’er should have taken care of things by now,” Su Qingxue said softly after taking a deep breath.
What must be faced will eventually be faced. Avoidance solves nothing.
“Those beasts!” Lin Tianyang gritted his teeth.
What had just happened would undoubtedly become the darkest shadow of his life. Even if he one day stood at the peak of the Piao Miao Continent, he would never erase his fear of that region of his body.
Though exhausted in both body and mind, he still endured the pain and cleaned up the surroundings. His mother and that bastard were outside.
“Yang’er, your mother and your father have come to see you,” Su Qingxue called again.
It was as if nothing had happened. She sounded just as she had when she first arrived.
Seeing her son trembling slightly, Su Qingxue wanted to step forward to support him. But recalling what she had just witnessed, she restrained herself.
“Mother, I’m fine!” Lin Tianyang said, his eyes complicated as he looked at the faint hesitation on her face.
To have his humiliation witnessed by his own mother… If his mind had not been strong enough, he might have already smashed his head to death.
When he saw Lu Wuchen’s filthy hand still wrapped around his mother’s waist, the fire in his heart flared again.
But this time, he did not explode like before.
Without absolute proof, anything he said would only provoke his mother’s disgust.
So if he acted, he would act to kill.
“It’s good that you’re fine. It’s good that you’re fine,” Su Qingxue said with visible relief when she saw that he had not lost any limbs and had no visible bruises.
With the young master’s arrangements, Yang’er had not suffered bullying or torture in prison.
“Yang’er, I’ve already discussed it with the young master. We plan to let you leave the Holy Land and go to the secular world,” Su Qingxue said gently.
“What?” Lin Tianyang’s face turned strange.
Driving me away? What is that bastard planning now?
“Mother, why? Do you really want to chase your son away?” he asked in confusion.
He could not understand. Did that bastard intend to strip him of his identity as a son and completely claim his mother for himself?
“Yang’er, your mother’s heart aches as well,” Su Qingxue said, her voice trembling slightly. “But for your safety, it’s better that you leave.”
Seeing her son’s hurt expression, she felt reluctant. Get faster updates on g.com.
Once mother and son were separated, it might be forever.
She also wished the three of them could stay together as a family.
But she understood that doing so would only bring the young master trouble.
Given Yang’er’s rebellious temperament and those special preferences, remaining in the cultivation world would only harm him. It might even bring disaster upon the young master.
The young master had shown such deep care for them. She could not repay kindness with cruelty.
Hearing his mother’s explanation, Lin Tianyang felt aggrieved. This is all that bastard’s scheme. I’m a good person!
“Yang’er, Qingxue and I have already discussed this. I will give you a sum of money so you can live a life of wealth and comfort in the secular world,” Lu Wuchen said calmly. “You’ve offended too many people. From now on, you should not return to the Holy Land. I will personally send you to a safe place. Live out the rest of your life peacefully there.”
After speaking, he placed a pouch of spirit stones on the wooden table.
Lin Tianyang’s eyes hardened as he looked at the pouch.
Do you think a bag of spirit stones is enough to send me away?
He sneered inwardly.
But thinking of his current identity, he nodded lightly.
This bastard must think I’m just a cripple whose cultivation was destroyed, which is why he treats me so lightly.
How could a sparrow understand the ambition of a swan?
If he stayed here, he would only face endless suppression. Not only would his restored cultivation risk exposure, but those perverts might return again.
Leaving would bring only benefits.
His mother had already been involved with Lu Wuchen. Did he still need to worry about her being deceived?
What he needed now was to find a place to cultivate quickly, grow stronger, and eventually tear that bastard into pieces.
Then he would take his mother away from this land of trouble, and they would live together forever.
“Yang’er, have you made up your mind?” Su Qingxue asked again.
She could not allow Yang’er’s selfishness to affect the young master’s future.
If things reached that point, she would have no choice but to use her final measure to drive Yang’er away.
“At first, I was worried you would be bullied if you stayed here alone, so I didn’t want to leave,” Lin Tianyang sighed. “But now, it seems I was overthinking. There’s no place for me in this Holy Land anymore. Perhaps changing places will be good for both of us.”
Until his cultivation surpassed this bastard’s, he must not expose himself. Otherwise, all his suffering would have been in vain.
If he remained silent, so be it. But when he finally spoke, it would shake the world.
“Yang’er, I’m truly glad you understand,” Su Qingxue said, relieved that her son had not become completely stubborn.
“Yang’er, spend the next two days packing. In a couple of days, I will personally send you off,” Lu Wuchen said with the appearance of a benevolent father.
Lin Tianyang frowned at those words.
You’re sending me off? Or sending me to see the King of Hell?
He was not a fool. This man was definitely harboring ill intentions.
No. I can’t stay long. I’ll leave tonight.
“Alright,” Lin Tianyang said.
If I don’t steady you first, how can I leave?
Seeing him like this, Su Qingxue felt comforted.
Thank you, Young Master, for setting Yang’er back on the right path. I will repay your kindness at any cost.
With everything settled, there was no need to remain in this foul-smelling shack.
“If my mother suffers even the slightest mistreatment here, I will never let you go!” Lin Tianyang shouted at Lu Wuchen as he reached the door.
“Yang’er, rest assured. As long as I am alive, Qingxue will never go hungry,” Lu Wuchen replied confidently.
That much, he could guarantee.
“Mm.”
Lin Tianyang did not know Lu Wuchen’s true thoughts.
But one thing he was certain of was that this man was not merely playing around.
Otherwise, he would not have schemed so much against him.
With his status, a single word would bring countless beauties to him willingly.
There was no need to target a widow whose child was nearly his own age.
