A'ru regards Li Cheng as her lifeblood. In order to earn resources for Li Cheng, A'ru works no less hard than Li Hen.

But once the order from the direct line is given, it cannot be refused.

A'ru knew that she could not protect Li Cheng. If Li Hen had not been injured and A'ru had to treat his injuries, A'ru would most likely have fallen into the state of a walking corpse at this time.

When Li Hen heard Aju's words, his expression suddenly froze, and then he stood up directly regardless of the pain in his back.

Li Hen asked with red eyes and an extremely excited tone.

"Did the Aru family really issue such an order!?"

A'ru knew that Li Hen asked her back not because he didn't believe what she said, but because Li Hen was in the same out-of-control mood as herself.

Aju threw herself directly into Li Hen's arms and spoke with tears in her eyes.

"Li Hen, we are going to lose Xiao Cheng. The family's order for this matter has just been issued and Xiao Chen doesn't know about it yet, but I think the news will soon reach Xiao Cheng's ears."

"What do you think we should do?!"

Li Hen simply comforted Aju and came to the area where the direct line members lived with red eyes.

What Aju saw was Li Hen who was seriously injured and dying. Aju knew what Li Hen had done.

Li Hen went to find the direct descendant, hoping that he could revoke his decision and not let Xiao Cheng be the sixth young master's study companion.

Judging from the current situation, the direct descendants of the family not only rejected Li Hen, but also punished him with force.

A'ru felt sad as she bandaged Li Hen's wounds again. If she heard the news of Xiao Cheng's death in the future, she would not continue to live in such a family.

But Aju was reluctant and worried about Li Cheng.

The house was pitch black late at night, and Li Cheng had already known the news.

A'ju set out to accompany Li Cheng. When Li Hen woke up, the man who had been able to take lightly any serious injuries he had suffered during his exploration of the ruins world, couldn't help but shed hot tears.

In the darkness, Li Hen stretched out his hand, and looking at his first photo, he couldn't help but fall into a deep feeling of powerlessness.

At this moment, Li Hen, who was the most loyal to his family, actually had the idea of ​​betraying his family.

Li Hen wanted to rebel against his family and run away with Li Cheng and A Ru. Even if he joined a mercenary group and worked as a mercenary who was in danger of losing his job every day, it would be much better than what he is now.

But for Li Hen, this idea is just wishful thinking.

For the family, collateral disciples are not life but tools. How can tools have the qualifications to resist?

If I really resist as I thought, the family would probably kill me, Aju and Xiaocheng directly.

At this moment, Li Hen really wanted to endure the pain in his body and go to see Li Cheng, his only son. However, as a father, Li Hen only felt deeply sad for his own incompetence.

I lost the courage to see Li Cheng, for fear of seeing Li Cheng's frightened and disappointed expression.

It is said that men don't shed tears easily. Li Hen, who always hated crying, cried very sadly as a father.

After crying for an unknown amount of time, Li Hen made a wish in his heart in the dark night.

If he could escape from the Wanying Wolf Clan and stop Li Cheng from being a follower of the cruel Sixth Young Master Li Qianlie, he would be willing to exchange everything for it.

Thinking of this, Li Hen suddenly couldn't help but laugh at himself.

It seems like everything I have is nothing!

My worthless life is worthless! ...

In the dim night, five boys and girls were sitting by a rushing river.

Behind each of the five boys and girls, an elemental shadow with different postures appeared.

Four of the five elemental shadows appear to be quite solid, but one is extremely illusory.

This illusory elemental shadow belonged to an ordinary-looking woman.

The other four people had normal expressions on their faces when they manifested these elemental phantoms in different postures, but the expression on this woman's face was extremely painful.

Big drops of sweat dripped from her forehead, and the other figures, sensing the woman's condition, all showed expressions of contempt and mockery on their faces.

A charming laugh rang out.

"Ameng, your talent is too poor. With your talent, it will be meaningless even if you practice with us every day."

"If I were you, I would have given up long ago. It would only be embarrassing to continue like this!"

"Although you are a direct descendant of the bloodline, your power is so weak. I really don't know how you were born!"

"If the family hadn't conducted the test, I would have doubted whether your bloodline was impure!"

The woman with the charming voice has a very sweet appearance, but her words are filled with a kind of malice that is difficult to conceal.

In any ethnic group that values ​​bloodline, openly questioning the bloodline of one's own clan can be said to be an extremely vicious act.

Anyone whose bloodline is questioned in such a clan is ridiculed and isolated.

Following the charming female voice was a clear male voice.

"Third sister, don't say that. Before Yuan Qi condensed the Elemental Shadow, he was a genius valued by the family elders. It is said that the awakened Elemental Shadow may contain two elements!"

"Who among our generation could compare to Yuan Qi's glory at that time?"

"It's just that things have changed. The elders in the family were just as excited as they were now. "

"Not only did the Elemental Veins awaken so late, but it was even difficult for him to condense the Elemental Shadow. How can he possibly live up to the high expectations of the family?!"

"If I were to say, the most talented woman in this generation of our family would have to be you, Third Sister!"

The clear male voice was very pleasant to the ear, but the words were full of flattery, full of flattery for the charming female voice and contempt for Yuan Qi.

I don’t know if it’s because of the boy’s admiration or the instinct to curry favor with the powerful, but every time they come to the elemental river to practice together, such bad words always rang out.

"Well, we are all of the same generation. Yuan Qi's poor talent has not hindered your work nor has it taken away your resources."

This rough voice seemed to be trying to help Yuan Qi out, but the topic quickly turned back to Yuan Qi.

"Yuan Qi, you know your own talent. I advise you not to force yourself."

"You are wasting the family's resources by coming to the Elemental River to absorb elements. Our lineage is the weakest among the nine major bloodlines. You are occupying these resources without any value. Don't you feel guilty?"

"If you don't go and tell the family yourself, I won't report it to the family."

Yuan Qi, who looked ordinary, pursed his lips when he heard the rough voice.

"Yuan Meng, I know you have reported to the family more than once in an attempt to deprive me of the opportunity to absorb elemental energy here. The family did not agree to your statement because they have not given up on me yet."

"You guys can say whatever you want about me, but I will never miss any of the routine training sessions here!"

After saying that, Yuan Qi stood up and left, not letting himself continue to be involved in the trouble.

When he left, blood was already seeping out of Yuan Qi's clenched fists.

Yuan Qi felt his body that seemed to never be able to absorb enough elements and fell into a deep sense of powerlessness.

Yuan Qi's body absorbed elemental energy extremely quickly, far surpassing those of his fellow tribesmen who had just improved their strength together with him.

However, when these elemental energies were absorbed into his body, they seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

However, Yuan Qi could be sure that these elemental energies were indeed absorbed into his body.

That massive amount of elemental energy would not disappear out of thin air, and Yuan Qi was extremely confused about this.

Although he didn't understand his situation, Yuan Qi did not tell his family about it.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

The water-type lineage he belonged to was the weakest among the nine major lineages and had been suppressed by the other major lineages due to some historical reasons.

This is the only elemental river left that is suitable for the younger generation, and my situation is tantamount to wasting the clan’s resources.

Originally, those guys who targeted me didn't have that much dissatisfaction with me. It was because I absorbed the elemental energy in the elemental river too quickly during this period that made them dissatisfied. They thought that I was stealing their resources.

In Yuan Qi's heart, he has never taken his family seriously. What Yuan Qi cares more about is improving his personal strength from beginning to end.

Only by improving personal strength can you gain everything.

His grandfather, father, and mother gave everything for the family, but in the end they got nothing, and he himself did not receive much preferential treatment.

The reason why the family is still providing me with resources is simply because they are still confident in my talent.

Once I make my family feel that I am truly worthless, they will abandon me without hesitation.

Just like the father who abandoned him.

When Yuan Qi thought of this, he felt a chill in his heart and a surge of hatred at the same time.

But Yuan Qi felt deeply powerless.

I am indeed very ambitious, but my ability is obviously not worthy of my ambition.

I wonder how many times I can come to the Element River again? If the family sees that I have not made any progress, I am afraid they will not let me come to the Element River again soon!

Thinking of this, Yuan Qi's expression darkened.

Yuan Qi said silently in his heart, if this world can give someone a chance to rise up and have enough strength to dominate the world, I, Yuan Qi, am willing to exchange everything for it!

Yuan Qi has always admitted that he is an extremely ambitious person, but having ambition without strength is tantamount to being a joke.

Because Yuan Qi's parents and grandfather had passed away, he was fostered in his aunt's home when he was young and did not receive much love, but he suffered a lot of contempt.

My aunt has always wanted me to give up the idea of ​​going to the Elemental River for training.

Because he voluntarily gave up, his younger brother had the opportunity to go to the Elemental River for training.

Yuan Qi was unwilling to give up this opportunity no matter what his aunt said, and for this, he was beaten by his aunt and uncle many times.

Even his own younger brother would openly target him.

Yuan Qi calmly let the elders of the tribe discover the truth about his abuse, and only then was he able to get rid of his aunt's family and return to the old house where he lived with his parents when he was a child.

As soon as Yuan Qi returned home, he found that his aunt came to see him.

The only reason his aunt came to see him was because of that incident. The fact was just as Yuan Qi thought. He only heard his aunt speaking in an imperative tone.

"Xiao Qi, you have the same unyielding character as your elder brother, but you have already tried everything you should have tried."

"Given your situation, there is no point in you going to the Elemental River anymore."

"Xiaodong has already awakened the Elemental Vein, and you haven't even been able to condense the Elemental Shadow yet. The elders of the tribe will not let you occupy this opportunity for long."

Hearing what his aunt said, Yuan Qi felt a chill in his heart for no reason.

Is this his so-called relative? Yuan Qi suddenly felt that his aunt was not like a member of his own clan, but more like a vampire ready to suck his blood at any time.

There are many rules in the clan, and the most taboo one is talking back to elders.

Yuan Qi took a deep breath and spoke softly.

"Aunt, my opportunity was fought for by my parents, and it also has something to do with my own talent."

"Even if I force myself to give up the opportunity, I don't think Yuandong's talent is enough to get this chance!"

"Aunt, we are the closest blood relatives in the clan, why can't you see me getting better?!"

"Not only have they treated me harshly over the years, they have also been depriving me of opportunities and taking away so many things my parents left for me."

Yuan Qi asked in a calm tone the question that he had wanted to know the most over the years. The woman standing in front of Yuan Qi actually cursed loudly upon hearing his words.

"If it weren't for your father, your mother and that old man who favored you right after you were born and kept collecting supplies for you everywhere."

"They both won't die!"

"If the two of them hadn't died, how could our lineage have been suppressed so badly!?"

"All of this is caused by you. You are such a treacherous little girl. You even asked the elders to take back some of the resources left by your parents."

"If you didn't want to take these resources, why would it take Xiaodong so long to awaken the elemental veins!?"

After hearing what his aunt said, the last bit of emotional hope in Yuan Qi's heart was completely cut off.

It turned out that her aunt had always resented her father, who was known as the guardian of the legitimate bloodline, and her mother, who had saved her and uncle's lives more than once.

In the eyes of my aunt, taking back the resources left to me by my parents was like doing something immoral.

It was a pity that when I was treated coldly by my aunt and uncle at the beginning, I kept reflecting on whether I had done something wrong.

Now it seems that I was too stupid.

"Aunt, I'm tired, you can go back. Anyway, I am still one of the five people in this generation who have been selected and trained by the family."

"You are here to affect my improvement and slow down my speed of condensing elemental shadows. I don't think you want me to ask the elders of the family to drive you away, right? "
