01. Thrown away

"Why? Did I do something wrong that you cruelly want to kill me?". With a wound on his abdomen, a young man was sitting in pain while shouting angrily at the woman who was cleaning the green sword in his hand.

The man looked miserable because he had just been stabbed by a beautiful woman who was none other than the person he had always been with, as a friend, best friend and they had even been engaged for two years. Unfortunately, the young man did not expect that the woman would lie to him by taking him into the forbidden forest in the green city.

The woman stared coldly at him, "I really have no interest in you anymore, in my eyes you are an obstacle to the path of cultivation. That's why I want to kill you here, after which I can go to the Diyu Sect."

Seeing how she left him made the young man's heart ache. It hurt so much that he felt that everything he did for his beloved was completely useless. Looking at the woman who left without even turning around after severely injuring him, the young man cursed and would take revenge on her. The humiliation he felt now would be avenged a hundred times more painfully by her later, "I will definitely... Will definitely avenge all your deeds! I will..." although in the end the young man was unconscious due to the heavy injuries he received from the woman.

At that time, after the young man was unconscious a few hours later several figures appeared there and immediately took the man back home. They looked very anxious and there was fear on their faces when they saw the condition of the injured man. When they got home, the whole house became so excited that they quickly called a healer or master to see the condition of the unconscious young man. The pale face of the young man made them all genuinely afraid of something happening to him.

"Nothing should happen to you, child!"

.......

Green City, a small town under the rule of the Yuan Empire.

In the city, there were two major families that held power under the city's own ruler. They were the Lu Family and the Han Family, two families that were always enemies whenever they had time. They always fought small wars such as in trade, pill, and artifacts, but these two could be said to be the best clans in the green city because their reputation was also well-known in some nearby cities.

And at this moment in the Lu family residence, a handsome young man was sleeping on a tree in the Lu family's youth training yard. Whereas there an elder was explaining some things related to martial arts to the younger generation of the Lu family. But the young man sleeping on the tree didn't seem the least bit interested in what the elder had to say. He ignored everything and just lived on his own, even if someone insulted him he really didn't care.

One man angrily insulted the sleeping man along with another friend "Tch! This trash is still sleeping, doesn't he realize that he's just trash now? He should wake up and try to train with us."

"Right! Just because he's the nephew of the head of the family, he's relaxing like that. This useless trash is bringing shame to our Lu family."

However, an elder immediately stopped them loudly because it was during the training period, "Shut up! Listen to me speak, if you can't demonstrate the Cheetah shadow technique I will punish you severely!" Hearing that they would be punished severely, they dared not keep quiet and continued to insult the sleeping man.

The elder who was training the youngsters turned his head towards the youngster who had been insulted by his protégé. There was no change in expression as he looked at the boy even though he was insulted every day and time by many people in the clan. Even though the elder knew the youngster's life, he couldn't do anything even if he hoped to see the boy revitalized. And at this moment in the Lu clan hall, there were several figures who were spending a lot of treasure in front of the Lu clan leader. And of the few figures he knew, there was a beautiful woman who was also the fiancée of his own nephew.

The clan chief coldly asked, "What do you mean? Wasn't the engagement already approved by both our families?" Obviously at this point canceling the engagement for no apparent reason or fault of the nephew was something unfair to clan Lu.

"This is my decision, my future is better than your niece's uncle. So, I beg you to accept this decision I've made, otherwise perhaps clan Lu will suffer!" The woman's firm reply made all the clan elders angry. They immediately stood up and wanted to reply but the clan leader stopped them with his hand code.

If asked if he was angry? Of course he was furious at the woman's words but did they have to lower themselves to such a position now? From the beginning this engagement was a request from the other party themselves and now that they were getting something much better than Clan Lu, they just left it at that. The Cha family is just a middle-level family in the rainy city, they were the ones who always hoped to get Clan Lu's attention at first but now....

They completely turned their faces away as if they saw that Clan Lu was no longer useful to them. If it was her, she would probably cancel the engagement right away since it was her own niece who was engaged, not her or anyone else in the clan. He can only wait for his niece's decision whether or not she still wants to continue this engagement which he thinks is very unfavorable for the Lu family. All the elders also felt the same, this engagement should have been stopped, it's just that the person is not them, so they can only be silent to hold their own anger. But at that moment, the sound of footsteps and laughter made all the elders stand up in surprise, they all turned their heads towards the entrance and saw the figure they had been waiting for for a long time appear in the hall.

"Uncle seems to be in trouble. Never mind uncle! If they really want to cancel this engagement, just cancel it uncle. Why are you thinking so hard? Even if they cancel it, won't we have nothing to lose? After all, they should be the ones losing here, right?"
