C35 (1/2)

Taking a deep breath, Wen Zheng forcefully suppressed his emotions and walked into Cao Zhou City.

”Stop, what are you doing?” A soldier Wen Zheng had never seen before stopped Wen Zheng and the others. With the disturbance caused by those martial artists, King Changping had increased the defense of Cao Zhou City by a lot.

”Oh, an invitation from a relative to come and celebrate his birthday. They're here to accompany me.” Wen Zheng suddenly thought of something. Due to his relationship with Master Wen, Prefect Cao had always been on good terms with Master Wen. Wen Zheng had also gone to see him a few times on his birthday. Now that he suddenly thought of it, that Prefect's birthday was probably in the next few days. However, he didn't know if this Prefect of Cao Zhou City still had the right to invite others to celebrate his birthday.

”Relatives? What relatives? Do you have an invitation letter? ” The soldier said again.

”Yes, yes.” As Wen Zheng spoke, he winked at Situ Ya behind him. The Quasi-demon god instantly creating an invitation letter was a trivial matter. With a wave of his hand, an invitation letter appeared in his hand. Wen Zheng received the invitation letter and handed it to the soldiers. Beneath the invitation letter was a silver ingot. ”The soldier did not read the invitation letter, but saw the silver ingot. His tiny eyes widened in an instant, and his attitude changed drastically as well.” ”Oh, there really is one. Wait a moment, everyone can go in.”

After entering Cao Zhou City successfully, a familiar street appeared in front of them. The commoners had listless looks on their faces, which probably had something to do with Wencun. The street is still the same street, but the Wen Mansion is gone. In just a few months, things have changed! ” Wen Zheng muttered to himself in a low voice, and the few of them followed him towards the Wen Mansion without saying a word. Gradually, the large courtyard of the Wen Mansion appeared in front of his eyes and it was the same as before. However, on the signboard, it was changed to the Liu Mansion. When he saw the golden words ”Liu Mansion”, Wen Zheng clenched his fist tightly.

”The second brother has left. The lord and the eldest brother have also left. This old woman has also been chased out. She doesn't have a home anymore.” Wen Zheng suddenly heard a hoarse voice. Turning his head to look, he saw an old woman in rags sitting by the side of the road, mumbling to herself. As he slowly approached the old woman, Wen Zheng squatted down as well. He used his hand to roll up his messy hair, revealing a familiar face.

”Mother!” Wen was hugging the old woman and crying loudly. This person was really Wen Zheng's mother, Mrs. Wen.

Madam Wen did not see Wen Zheng's face, and even if she did, she would not be able to recognize him. However, Madam Wen heard his voice clearly, it was the voice of her second son. He trembled slightly as he caressed Wen Zheng's face and said, ”Second brother, why did you come back? ”Hurry up and leave!” Wen Zheng was startled to see his mother touching his face. ”Mother, your … your eyes …”

”He's blind! He's been poisoned! Son, you should leave now. Go find your father, look for your father, and take revenge on me!” Lady Wen said to Wen Zheng.

”Mother, your son isn't leaving. Your son will take revenge on you now. Tell me, who was it that poisoned your eyes?” Wen Zheng sobbed silently as he faced his wife.

”Liu Chen, it's Liu Chen. He is an ungrateful person. Your father saved him from the jaws of death in the past. Who would have thought that he would completely ruin the Wen Family.” Madame Wen's voice could even be described as heartbreaking.

”It's because I owe you a debt of kindness that I didn't kill you. Otherwise, how could I possibly have the touching image of you and your son meeting each other today?” Wen Zheng suddenly turned around to see Housekeeper Liu and a group of soldiers staring at him with a sinister smile.

”Liu Chen, today, I will make you die a graveless death!” Wen Zheng viciously said as he stared at Liu Chen with his blood-red eyes.
