Chapter 1 - Abandoned Child: Xiao Chen

Profound Sky Continent, Yunhai City

”Get out of Nie clan, useless thing.” Nie Yunhe looked at the youth who couldn't even get up from the ground, his eyes filled with disdain, ”A trash like you doesn't even care about your father, what face do you have to stay in the Nie clan?”

”Nie Chen, if I were you, I wouldn't even have the face to live. I'd have already been killed.” The beautiful woman at the side looked at Nie Chen, who had collapsed to the ground, with disdain and disdain in her eyes.

He was the second wife of Nie Chen's father, Nie Tianhai. When Nie Chen's mother gave birth to him, his father had married into a concubine that was extremely favored by him. Furthermore, he had given birth to such a talented son like Nie Yunhe, so he was even more favored by Nie Tianhai.

At that time, even though Nie Chen's mother was the legal wife, she was still far from having the right to speak to a concubine. Furthermore, Nie Tianhai didn't like her, so their relationship was as calm as water.

Since he was young, Nie Chen had always been inferior to his mother. Even though he was the eldest son of Nie clan, there was a heaven and earth difference between him and his half-brother. Furthermore, both of them had been bullied and unkind by his second mother.

As for him, he continued to be bullied until today.

Nie Chen's expression turned ugly and a hint of pain appeared in his eyes.

Everyone in Nie clan watched quietly. Even though they did not say anything, their eyes clearly stated everything.

It was contempt, it was disdain!

Nie Chen slowly crawled up from the ground. There were wounds all over his body and blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth. However, he didn't care about it. His eyes were filled with determination as he looked towards Madam Xia and said, ”Second Mother, I want to see my father.”

”Your father doesn't want to see you, so he asked me to pass a message to you, saying that he doesn't have a useless son like you. He wants you to scram out of the Nie clan from today onwards, and from today on, he will break off all relations between father and son with you.

Lady Xia's words were intended to tell Nie Chen, but it seemed more like she was making the matter of Nie Chen being expelled public.

Nie Chen clenched his hands so tightly that they turned white.

”Second Mother, even if you want to expel me from the clan, you need my father to personally tell me that I am the eldest son of the Nie clan and the future heir to the clan. You and Nie Yunhe are not qualified.” Nie Chen said indifferently, without even giving her a glance. Just as he was about to step through the door of the Nie clan, he was stopped.

”I'm still the young master of the Nie clan. If anyone dares to stop me, step aside. I want to see my father.”

Nie Chen's words seemed to have stunned the servants, causing them to feel relaxed as they held onto Nie Chen's hand.

Just as Nie Chen stepped through the entrance of the Nie clan, he was suddenly pulled out by a powerful force and ruthlessly fell onto the ground.

”Nie Chen, father has already said that he would break off all relations with you, so you're even more unworthy to enter the Nie clan. If you don't know what's good for you, then don't blame me for not thinking about our relationship after so many years.” While speaking, a smile could be seen in Nie Yunhe's eyes, but that smile was filled with ridicule. He had long wanted to get rid of Nie Chen, but because he was the eldest son of the Nie clan, he was unable to do so. If Nie Chen were to be expelled from the family, how could he let this opportunity go?

Nie Chen did not move. He just stood there, stunned. The pain in his body had already numbed him, and he couldn't stop thinking about the past.

Ever since he could remember, he had lived with his mother in a small, run-down yard. There were no servants, only the two of them.

One day, he went to his father to ask why his mother would stay in a dilapidated courtyard despite being his legal wife. Although Second Mother was his concubine, she lived a better life than his mother, yet in exchange, he received a beating from Nie Tianhai. In the end, she was hit to the ground by Nie Tianhai. Her already weak mother became sick, and even had to continuously be ridiculed and ridiculed by the Xia clan. Finally, one night, her mother died in depression.

Thinking up to this point, Nie Chen's heart was filled with endless rage.

The two men in front of him were the culprits behind his mother's death, but his father didn't care at all. The day after his mother's death was the day after she took his wife as his legal wife. Thinking about this made his heart go cold.

To him, this family didn't have any lingering feelings for him. The only thing worth lingering around was his mother, for the sake of his mother's dying promise.

Just as Nie Chen was in a trance, a middle-aged man walked out from the entrance of the Nie clan. Looking at Nie Chen with an indifferent expression, he was Nie Chen's father, Nie Tianhai, the Patriarch of the Nie clan.

Nie Chen looked at Nie Tianhai and did not say anything. Nie Tianhai indifferently said, ”Nie clan would not keep a piece of trash, so I don't need to say the rest of my words, do I?”

He was talking about his mother.

”For the past seventeen years, you have never treated me as your son. If someone bullied me, you would teach me a lesson instead. When I beat someone up, no matter if they were right or wrong, you would always scold me at the very first moment. Nie Chen bitterly smiled.

Nie Tianhai didn't say a word, and quietly looked at Nie Chen.

”I did it for my mother. Even when she was alive, she wasn't a person that you thought well of. Even when you died, you didn't stay by her side. However, she still wished for me to stay by your side and fulfill her duty as a human child …” As he spoke, tears rolled down Nie Chen's face.

”Seventeen years, you gave me my life, but I will use seventeen years to repay you. For the rest of my life, you and I will have nothing to do with each other, and from then on, we will break off all ties. Give me my mother's ashes, and I will immediately leave Nie clan, never to return.” Nie Chen lightly said.
