Chapter 382: Myriad Star Demon Refining Scroll (1) Translator: CKtalon

In the Chen familys residence in White County.

Xu Jingming sat in the courtyard when he suddenly heard knocking on the door.

Young Master. A voice sounded from outside.

Only then did Xu Jingming get up, unlock the wooden bolt, and open the courtyard door.

Outside was a slightly hunched man with disheveled hair. His eyes looked around through his disheveled hair, causing the surroundings to seem colder. However, his gaze was much warmer when he looked at Xu Jingming.

!!

Young Master, the hunchbacked old servant greeted.

Uncle Qi, Xu Jingming greeted back.

In this world, the person Chen Qi was closest to was this old servant, Uncle Qi. Uncle Qis full name was Wu Qi, and he was the butler brought over by Chen Qis mother from her maiden home! He was loyal and had served Young Master Chen Qi for so many years.

If it werent for Wu Qi, Chen Qis life in the Chen family would probably be much harder.

Young Master, I have something to tell you, Wu Qi said seriously.

What is it? Xu Jingming asked.

I often visit Misss grave to get rid of the weeds and keep it maintained. Wu Qis eyes were cold. But I discovered that the Chen family sent someone to exhume Misss coffin yesterday in preparation to relocate her grave.

Relocate her grave? Xu Jingmings expression changed slightly. He felt an obsession in his mind immediately become much stronger and even a little crazy.

The Wu family got into big trouble, and the Chen family is afraid of being implicated, so they are trying their best to draw a line. Wu Qi nodded. However, I never expected the Chen family to be so ruthless. Miss Wu has been dead for more than ten years, but they still had the heart to relocate her grave.

Young Master, dont worry. In the past two days, Ive already hired an expert to select somewhere nice to have Miss buried, Wu Qi said.

Thank you, Uncle Qi. Xu Jingming felt the surging obsession in his mind. This is the lingering obsession of the Demon Vanquishing World body that I descended into?

Before Xu Jingming entered, he had learned that the Demon Vanquishing World was created to hone and improve ones mind and consciousness. Therefore, the original body that one descended into would have lingering obsessions.

Chen Qis obsession is Xu Jingming felt it clearly. To make a name for himself! Make his father and the Chen family regret it! He will never return even if they beg him to return.

He couldnt turn his back on these obsessions. The more he went against them, the worse the backlash from his obsessions would be. It was very normal for him to suffer from schizophrenia and go crazy.

Fortunately This obsession wasnt difficult.

It was impossible for him to curry favor with the Chen family. What he had learned made him dislike the Chen family. In order to fulfill the obsession, he would do things beautifully.

With his mind set, the obsession immediately calmed down.

Uncle Qi, Xu Jingming said, Chen Shian gave me 100 taels of silver today and forced me to leave the Chen family and fend for myself.

Just 100 taels? Wu Qi couldnt help but ask.

Xu Jingming nodded.

Wu Qi gritted his teeth and said, The dowry Miss brought over and the silver she earned for the Chen family over the years have all become the Chen familys! Miss left you 8,000 taels of silver before she died. Your father even swore in front of Miss that he would give it to you when you turn 18, but he kept delaying it. Now, hes giving you 100 taels to let you go out and fend for yourself?

Wu Qi was furious. This wasnt in line with his mistresss wishes!

I dont even want these 100 taels, Xu Jingming said. Lets pack up and leave the Chen family today.

Wu Qis eyes lit up when he heard that. Alright, Young Master. No matter where you go, Ill always follow you. Moreover, Miss also realized Chen Shians nature back then, so she hid 5,000 taels of silver with me! Ive always kept it safe for you, Young Master.

Xu Jingming was slightly stunned. The dead Chen Qis mother actually held a trump card?

Before Miss got married, she only saw Chen Shian twice. She found his appearance and reputation pleasing, but who wouldve thought that it was all Chen Shians disguise? Wu Qi shook his head. Forget it. Now that weve left the Chen family, be it in White County or elsewhere, you will definitely live well with the silver and my service.

Alright. Xu Jingming nodded. Lets pack up.

You have to bring some of Misss belongings too, Wu Qi said.

Soon, Xu Jingming packed some simple clothes and other things and left with Wu Qi.

Xu Jingming and Wu Qi passed through the courtyard doors and corridors. Along the way, some guards and maidservants were puzzled when they saw Xu Jingming and Wu Qi carrying bags.

When they reached the front yard

Chen Qi! an angry shout sounded.

Xu Jingming turned his head and saw a young man with a proud expression. The latter had some subordinates beside him as he pointed at Xu Jingming and shouted, Are you and that old servant of yours planning to leave the Chen family with those bags?

Xu Jingming didnt say anything and continued walking out.

Stop! The young man shouted coldly, You two are acting all furtive with those bags. Who knows if you stole from my Chen family? Someone, check their bags!

Chen Shuwen. Xu Jingming looked at him. Thats excessive.

Im afraid that the Chen familys assets will be stolen by you. Go, check their bags, the young man instructed. As the grandson of the patriarch, Chen Shuwen had much more authority in the Chen family than Chen Qi.

Under his orders, the guards immediately stepped forward, intending to use force.

Scram! Wu Qiwho had been standing behind Xu Jingmingsuddenly took a step forward. With a shout, the saber at his waist unsheathed and flashed!

The five guards, who were inches away, were sent flying.
