Reasons behind his hatred for Li Zian

Huang Guiren coughed and gave a signal that another two outsiders had come into their way. Though their guess earlier was proved to be wrong, they still couldn't tell that the two would not do anything ambiguous in the presence of no one.

Zhao Xiuying who was sobbing like a little kitten earlier was startled as she turned around and pretended to wipe her eyes. Clearly, all before was just an act. She just got such a rare chance to get close to her crush and these two had to come at this exact moment ruining her little opportunity.

And as she turned back, the sight of two brothers looking at each other with coldness and indifference came into her vision. If a stranger were to witness such a scene, they would undoubtedly thought these three were in a love triangle.

But nothing could be further from the truth. None of the two was interested in the girl. This was just some other type of family matters. Of course, Huang Guiren was the first to break the silence as he said, "Hey, Li Qing, look. We've got many snacks from villagers. We don't even need to buy other things. Um.... you like baked sweet potatoes, right? "

Li Qing only glanced over his sibling with his brows furrowed. That bandage.... it seemed like their mission this morning didn't go well. But it did not come as a surprise to him. This half brother of his was a trash. Of course, a trash would get what he deserved.

These two brothers never had a smooth relationship. In fact, it was since Li Zian came into their family..... since the very first time of their meeting. Back then, Li Qing was the eldest son of Li Peizhi. Not only he was the son of the main wife but he also had the highest cultivation level among other children of his father.

But all of these didn't do much to get his father's attention. Li family was an absolute curse to him. Since he was born, there was not even a moment of peace in his life. Everybody was wicked and competitive. Everyday was all about competing and opposing with one another. He never had a chance to experience that thing called love. He didn't even get it from his parents.

His father was an extreme workaholic. He rarely showed any love or warmth towards his family. And his mother.... she was nothing better than his father either. His mother only knew how to force him and make his life immerse in cultivation that, cultivation this.

Despite him showing his limit, she kept pushing her son. And when he said the truth that he was tired or that he was at his limit, he didn't get nothing like words of consolation and cheering as he expected. Instead, what he got back was those harsh and fierce words of disappointment from her. His life seemed to be the most superior one among other children in the household but in truth, every second of his life was as difficult as hell. Only loneliness had been his sole companion.

And it was when his father adopted Li Zian. By then, the boy got so much care and love from his father. He never thought his father would have such kind of caring version.

Not to mention that Li Zian got a heavenly spiritual root which he wished to have like crazy. Back then, the boy was just a mere newbie to the field of cultivation and he had no idea that little kid would make his already miserable life even more terrible.

This little genius took all the things he had in his life. His father's love and care all went to him. What's more? He had to share his privillege like the best of the best trainings and masters with that kid. His mom who was an ambitious woman would not stop pushing him beyond his limit at the realization that someone was about to take her son's position.

He was struggling with all those difficulties but the kid was just doing all fine.And, at last, that kid outdid him. Li Zian surpassed his cultivation and got the title of Li family's genius young master which was supposed to be his... his and his alone.

A young Lord, who was respected and admired by masses, was suddenly pulled back to the second place and that someone who pulled him down was a mere lowly birth and a kid three years younger than him?

Life was so cruel and only heaven knew how he endured those days. His mom would not stop scolding and calling him " a trash who had no ability to outdo a lowly birth."

The boy had everything he didn't have a chance to enjoy. Love, fame, talents.... he got everything. Not to mention that there were two more caring parents for him other than his father.

But somehow, heaven gave him some face. Li Zian's cultivation encountered a hard breakthrough all of a sudden. Li Qing decided it was his chance and tried his best, taking advantage of that moment to surpass Li Zian. Finally, he'd got what he want. But, strangely Li Zian was stuck at that level forever.

What a trash.....Heaven gave him everything and made him a perfect human being, yet he couldn't even make good use of it. Li Qing was the first one who gave him that title of a "trash". He bullied him everytime he got a chance. The boy dared to snatch his position. He was already fuckin lucky that Li Qing didn't do anything terrible than bullying.

But one day, he unexpectedly saw the boy secretly sobbing in tears. Well, he was not in his old days anymore. Of course, the boy might despise his life like hell. But since then, Li Qing made up his mind to stop bullying him and not to pay attention to the boy anymore.

Even so, he couldn't help it. Everytime he encountered the boy, those faces kept popping out in his head.... those mocking faces of everyone.... every single one including his mom and dad...those words saying he was a trash who couldn't even beat a lowly birth. Regardless of everything being in the past, he still couldn't let it go.

And when that happened, he would not let the boy go easily and had to do some shit. But compared to previous events, it was nothing that could be described as bullying in other's eyes.

"I need to go take some spiritual stones. Just enjoy the meal yourself."

Li Qing said those words to Huang Guiren before preparing to leave immediately.

"Ah...but why don't you- " Huang Guiren had yet to reply when a white peach in his hand was snatched away by Zhao Xiuying. This girl..... at least, show some respect to him in front of his junior, okay?

"Why just all fruits? Where my breakfast? " Dissatisfied, the girl mumbled as she took a bite at the peach. Her eyes flashed with stars as she chewed. Not bad...hmm! No, it was just so awesome. Its sweetness alone was enough to tempt her into taking constant bites! The girl busied herself by chewing white peach that she didn't even know when her Qing-ge had left.

She turned to look at the other two only to realize that she was completely ignored by them. They were placing fruits and baked sweet potatoes on a stone table. No doubt, it was the creation of Huang Guiren. Yes, but to clean that dirty stone which was covered in dust upon dust, Zhang Long Wei helped.

Zhao Xiuying frowned and glowered at Li Zian as she chewed the peach. This bastard.... last time, she gave him a letter and made him come to their usual dating place. But she couldn't even spot the corner of his shadow.

Since his recovery, Zhao Xiuying felt like this boy had been distancing himself from her. She was not going to let him go like this. Li Zian needed to get punished for treating her like air. His crime was naturally unforgivable.
