Dragon Lord of Myriad Calamity/
Chapter 2 Family Sinner
" What? Young Patriarch's cultivation was crippled? That's impossible, right?"
"It's true. When we were at the door, the Young Patriarch said it himself. Furthermore, Chu Xuan no longer felt any spiritual energy fluctuations..”
Good news stays in the house, bad news spreads far away.
The news of Chu Xuan's cultivation being crippled spread throughout the Chu Clan very quickly. It even began to spread outside the Chu Clan..
Chu Xuan did this on purpose..
Having experienced Lin Wan 'er's matter, he also understood a principle. When he was strong, those who appeared beside him were all good people or pretended to be good people..
And now, let's do it again..
He wanted to see what these people would look like when he was down and out..
At this moment, Chu Xuan was standing in the Chu family ancestral hall..
This is the place where the Chu family usually conducts business..
When he entered, he saw that the ancestral hall was already full..
Chu Clan Leader Chu Nantian.
The seven elders and ten stewards of the Chu family.
There was also the Chu family's core combat strength. There were dozens of people in total who focused their attention on Chu Xuan. Then, everyone was shocked..
Even though they were prepared, the first time they saw Chu Xuan, they could no longer sense any spiritual energy from Chu Xuan's body..
There are usually two kinds of situations like this..
The one who never started practicing.
The other way is to destroy all your cultivation.
As for concealing one's cultivation, nobody could do it in a remote place like Black Wind City..
Chu Xuan had been the strongest genius in Black Wind City since he started cultivating ten years ago. Now that he suddenly lost all his spiritual energy, he could only be crippled!
" Why? What exactly happened? Chu Xuan, how did your cultivation become crippled?"
Chu Nantian's expression darkened. He asked first..
Chu Xuan shook his head." Clan Leader, I don't want to talk about the exact process. I can only tell you that my cultivation has indeed been crippled. From now on, I am a cripple. I don't have the ability to continue serving as the Young Clan Leader..”
"I have come today for two reasons. First, I am resigning my position as the young clan leader. Second, I am begging the clan leader to allow me to retire to my hometown and enjoy my old age..”
Chu Xuan cupped his hands solemnly.
His words shocked the elders once again..
They could understand resigning from the young clan leader, but this retirement was too outrageous..
Chu Nantian was furious when he heard that. He slammed his chair and scolded," You're only eighteen years old. Why are you getting old? We're all your clansmen here. Don't tell me why your cultivation was destroyed?"
"Patriarch, it's already a fact that my cultivation has been crippled. No matter how much I say, is it useful?"
Even if he wanted to say it, he had to wait until he could wash away the humiliation. Chu Xuan's gaze was firm..
Chu Nantian could only sigh helplessly when he saw this..
Once the strongest genius of the Chu Family and even Black Wind City, he was crippled just like that. All the elders present sighed. For a moment, they didn't know what to say..
Seeing this, Chu Xuan also had a worried and bitter expression on his face." Patriarch, elders, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first..”
"Wait!"
" Chu Xuan, you family sinner! Do you think you'll be fine just because you resign your position as the Young Clan Leader and act pitiful? Three days later, there will be a battle for the mines of the major families in Black Wind City..”
" As the representative of our Chu Clan, you were either crippled earlier or later. But now, you are crippled. Isn't that equivalent to declaring our Chu Clan defeated? Do you know how much loss this will cause to our Chu Clan?"
Just as Chu Xuan was about to leave, an elder finally stood up in anger..
Chu Xuan looked over and realized that the person questioning him was Chu Nancheng, the third elder of the Chu family..
Following Chu Nancheng's attack, another elder stood up..
" Third Elder is right. The spirit vein that will be fought for in three days will account for half of our Chu Family's income!"
" In the end, Chu Xuan, you b * stard. Just a single sentence of crippling caused the clan to suffer heavy losses. I thought that it wasn't enough to strip him of his position as the young clan leader. I had to expel him from the clan and let him fend for himself!"
The one who stood up this time was the Fifth Elder of the Chu Clan..
The funny thing was that it was this Fifth Elder who tried his best to set him up with Lin Wan 'er, and the two of them ended up together..
Now that he's in trouble, this guy jumps out.
Chu Xuan thought to himself that he was lucky..
If he hadn't been crippled, how could he have seen these faces clearly?.
The veins on Chu Nantian's face were twitching..
He looked coldly at everyone present..
. " Other than Third Elder and Fifth Elder, who else agreed to remove Young Master Chu Xuan and expel Chu Xuan from the clan?"
"Patriarch, I disagree!"
"I disagree..”
"I disagree!"
"This grandson doesn't agree either!"
……
The whole ancestral hall, instantly boiling.
To Chu Xuan's surprise, only Third Elder and Fifth Elder opposed him, as well as a few Chu Family warriors belonging to their lineage..
The rest of us, almost unanimously, supported him..
How is it different from what I imagined?
Chu Xuan's eyes were a little dull..
Chu Nantian's face turned ashen." Very good. Men, take down the Third Elder, Fifth Elder, and those who support them!"
Ga?
Third Elder and Fifth Elder were dumbfounded." Patriarch, we are innocent, but you want to arrest us for a piece of trash?"
"Trash?"
Chu Nantian sneered. He suddenly pointed at Second Elder Chu Nanshuang and asked," Second Elder, how many mines do we have?"
"Clan Leader, adding up the large and small mines, there are a total of ten. Three of them belong to the Chu Clan. The remaining seven are all obtained by Chu Xuan during the past ten years..”
Chu Nantian nodded and pointed at another person." Fourth Elder, you are in charge of the herb gardens. How many herb gardens do we have in the Chu family?"
" Clan Leader, our Chu Clan has nearly ten large and small herb gardens. Of these, only three are ancestral gardens. The remaining seven are all Chu Xuan's, and they were obtained for the clan's desperate struggle!"
Fourth Elder's face was solemn..
Chu Nantian nodded again and pointed at Chu Xuan." Take off your clothes!"
" What? Take off your clothes? Clan Leader, it's not good to be in public, right?" Chu Xuan was shocked, but before he could resist, Chu Nantian tore his clothes apart..
The first thing that came into view was not the muscular upper body, but the densely packed scars on it..
Chu Nantian pointed at the wounds and asked loudly," Chu Xuan, how did you get these wounds?"
"It's not that bad."
Chu Xuan's eyes reddened. However, a warm feeling suddenly appeared in his heart. He puffed out his chest and shouted loudly," All of you are here to fight to the death for our family!"
" Did you hear that?" Chu Nantian looked around..
Staring at the scars all over his body, everyone was moved..
Chu Nantian patted Chu Xuan on the shoulder and said," Chu Xuan, I don't care how your cultivation was destroyed. As long as I'm alive, the position of Young Patriarch will be yours!"
"As for those of you who oppose, all of you will be crippled and expelled from the clan!"
" What? Chu Nantian, you want to cripple us just for a piece of trash? On what basis?" Third Elder and Fifth Elder's faces changed drastically as they shouted frantically..
And I got a roll of the eyes and spit..
"On what basis? Just because you are ungrateful and add insult to injury, you are not worthy of being part of the Chu family!"
Touch!
The elders present personally took action and crippled the Third Elder and Fifth Elder's cultivation on the spot..
This scene also caused a strong impact on Chu Xuan once again..
If Lin Wan 'er's betrayal had once plunged him into darkness, then this scene had once again given him light..
However, Chu Xuan didn't say anything. He only clenched his fists tightly and swore to himself," If I don't do my best, won't I truly become a sinner of the family?"
Thinking of this, Chu Xuan turned around and left without looking back..
Chu Nantian did not stop him. After dealing with the Third Elder and Fifth Elder, he would discuss with the other elders again..
" Now that Chu Xuan's cultivation has been crippled, I intend to send someone to the Imperial City to invite the best apothecary to come and treat Chu Xuan, even if I have to spend all my family's wealth for this. Do you agree?"
"Patriarch, we agree. Let's not talk about anything else. Chu Xuan has risked his life for the family these past ten years. Even if we lose everything, we don't care..”
" But Chief, what if the Young Chief's cultivation cannot be recovered?" Some elders were worried. Chu Nantian smiled." Then we'll raise him for life! If we really can't, we can move out of Black Wind City!"
"What? Move out of Black Wind City?"
Outside the ancestral hall, Chu Xuan did not leave but eavesdropped. In the end, he heard these words. One must know that the Chu family had been established in Black Wind City for a hundred years. Once they moved away,.
This was a great humiliation to the entire Chu family!
Thinking of this, Chu Xuan could not help but clench his fists. His nails were deeply embedded in his flesh." Lin Wan 'er, Lin family…"
