In the Starry Continent, martial arts were revered.
Five hundred years ago, the strongest cultivator of the Starry Continent, Zhenwu Great Emperor, died in the Land of Chaos. Before he died, he transmitted his voice to the entire continent.
"I will fuse the Sovereign Soul into the Dao Heart Depository and the Land of Chaos. The one who obtains the Heart of the Great Emperor shall obtain the world!"
The Heart of the Great Emperor was the strongest inheritance!
Five hundred years later, the Starry Continent entered an unprecedented golden age. In order to obtain the Heart of the Great Emperor, countless experts and geniuses embarked on the road to become Emperors!
… …..
Behind the General's Mansion in Jiangnan County of Dragonmartial Country.
"Ninety-eight, ninety-nine … one hundred!"
Bang …
The huge millstone was thrown to the ground by the young man. He was panting and sweating, but his eyes were sharp.
The young man's name was Zhou Yang, the seventh son of the Three-Star Dragon General Zhou Zhantian.
"Three years … I'm finally one hundred."
Looking at the chipped millstone on the ground, Zhou Yang was filled with joy.
Three years ago, he failed to fuse with the Star Soul Stone under the watchful eyes of the entire family. From then on, he became the laughing stock of the family.
The Star Soul was the key to martial arts. Without awakening the Star Soul, one would forever be an ordinary person.
For ordinary people to awaken the Star Soul, they had to open a container to contain it — Stellar Glint.
The earlier one opened the Stellar Glint, the earlier one could awaken the Star Soul. Therefore, the younger one opened the Stellar Glint, the greater the potential.
Three years ago, he was thirteen years old. He was the third person in a hundred years to successfully open the Stellar Glint at the age of thirteen.
That day, the whole city was shocked. His father, who was guarding the border thousands of miles away, returned at night and gave him the high-grade Earth Fiend Star Soul Stone the next day.
Unfortunately, he failed to fuse with the Star Soul Stone.
In the following years, his father gave up on him, and his second wife took the opportunity to make things difficult for him and his mother. These years, he lived a life worse than a servant.
However, he did not give up. Like before, he continued to train his body every day, just to verify a story he read in an ancient book.
"Brother Yang, something big happened, something big happened."
…! # E2c '7 …% 03) R7pR5' 9
His recollection was interrupted by a shout from the bottom of the hill. A fat teenager in a short-sleeved shirt ran with heavy steps as he shouted.
"Fatty … What happened?" Zhou Yang hurriedly went up to him.
Fatty Guo Dazhuang was the son of the general who guarded the city, and his only friend in the General's Mansion.
"It's Ye Zhining. Just now, Ye Zhining's father announced that she was betrothed to the eldest son of the Xu family. What's even more hateful is that they even said that you've been pestering Ye Zhining all these years. This is simply nonsense." Guo Dazhuang said while panting.
"I understand." Zhou Yang took a deep breath and a fierce look flashed across his eyes.
His cousin, Ye Zhining, was the daughter of Third Madam's elder brother. She could be considered a collateral descendant. However, her father was now the head butler of the General's Residence, and he had Third Madam behind him. It could be said that he had a high position of power.
"But Brother Yang, isn't she your childhood sweetheart? You gave her the Advanced Earth Fiend Star Soul Stone. You are ungrateful!" Guo Dazhuang said angrily.
"Everyone in the world is motivated by profit. I knew this day would come, but I didn't expect that they would be so impatient before the year was up."
After Zhou Yang finished speaking, he clenched his fists. He didn't care about Ye Zhining's ingratitude, but he couldn't ignore his own dignity.
A year ago, Ye Zhining had personally said in front of everyone that she wanted to marry him, and he agreed because of his mother's wish. In the end, under Ye Zhining's bitter begging, he gave her the Star Soul Stone.
Originally, they had agreed to get married at the end of the year, but halfway through, Ye Zhining's father went back on his word. He said that unless he fused the Star Soul Stone and awakened the Star Soul, he wouldn't let Ye Zhining marry him.
However, a year hadn't passed, and the Ye family actually went back on their word for the second time. This time, they even skipped him and betrothed Ye Zhining to the second son of the Xu family.
This was a slap to his face, and it was also a slap to his mother's face.
"Brother Yang, these years, the General only returns home a few times a year. The huge General's Residence has already become Second Madam's word. I think you should leave as soon as possible. As long as you say the word, I'll let my father arrange it right now …"
"Fatty, you're my good brother, but now is not the time to leave. Go back, I heard that the latest issue of the Starlight Residence's Net Worth Ranking is about to be released." Zhou Yang patted Guo Dazhuang's shoulder and looked down the mountain at the huge General's Residence.
In three years, he went from a genius to a laughingstock. He had tasted the coldness of human nature and knew that large families only cared about profit. However, in the end, he was still a disciple of the General's Residence, and his mother was still the General's Fifth Madam. Even if he could disregard everything and leave, his steadfast mother would definitely not leave.
For his mother, and to avenge his past humiliation, he would definitely not leave now.
"Alright, anyway, I'm hungry."
The two of them returned to the General's Residence. Zhou Yang purposely chose a small path to return to his own courtyard, not wanting to bump into other people in the residence.
However, the tree may desire peace, but the wind will not stop. Just as they returned to their own courtyard, they saw a youth dressed in embroidered clothes sitting on a chair waiting for them at the entrance.
"Ye Haochen!"
Guo Dazhuang looked at the youth dressed in embroidered clothes as if he was facing a great enemy.
Ye Haochen, Ye Zhining's brother, was the most hedonistic young master in the collateral family. What he usually liked to do was to laugh at him and Guo Dazhuang.
"I say, cousin, your skin is really thick." Ye Haochen looked at Zhou Yang with contempt, holding a piece of parchment in his hand.
"Do you have something to say?" Zhou Yang asked coldly.
"Of course I have something to say." Ye Haochen stood up and walked in front of Zhou Yang, saying, "My father has already announced to the public that my sister will be married to the Xu family's Second Young Master, yet you still haven't come forward to clarify things."
"Clarify what? You should be the one clarifying things. Three years ago, you were the ones who begged Mother Zhou to marry Ye Zhining to Brother Yang. You even said that she could be a concubine. Now you're actually accusing Brother Yang of pestering your sister. How shameless of you!" Guo Dazhuang scolded.
Ye Haochen glanced at Guo Dazhuang, his eyes full of disdain, "Guo Dazhuang, this has nothing to do with you. I advise you not to get involved. This matter was decided by the Second Madam. If you still want to stay in this city, then get out of here."
"This is my business. It has nothing to do with Dazhuang. If you want to do anything, then come at me." Zhou Yang looked at Ye Haochen and said indifferently.
Ye Haochen smiled and immediately opened the parchment in his hand, saying, "This is a public apology letter. It states how shamelessly you have pestered my sister all these years. You also promise not to pester her in the future. As long as you sign this letter and paste it in the Institute of Martial Arts tomorrow, this matter will end here."
"Shameless!"
Guo Dazhuang clenched his teeth in anger, "Ye Haochen, don't forget this time last year, you and your sister knelt in front of Brother Yang in front of me, begging Brother Yang to give you a Star Soul Stone. Your sister even said that as long as Brother Yang agreed, she would immediately become Brother Yang's woman."
Speaking of this, Guo Dazhuang couldn't help but laugh, "If it wasn't for the fact that Brother Yang isn't a lecherous person, your sister, the proud daughter of heaven, Ye Zhining, would already be a used shoe."
"Shut up!"
Ye Haochen shouted angrily. This matter had always been a thorn in the hearts of everyone in the Ye Family. It was also a stain on his genius sister's life.
"Ye Haochen, if you want to go back on your words, then ask Ye Zhining to come and find me personally." After speaking, Zhou Yang walked towards the courtyard.
"Zhou Yang, I'm warning you, the General has already agreed to this matter. At the end of the year, he will personally deal with it. If you know what's good for you, then sign it. Don't think about a toad eating swan meat. Think about it carefully, I will come and find you tomorrow morning."
Ye Haochen suppressed his anger and glared at Guo Dazhuang before turning to leave.
Kacha!
The sound of a fist hitting the ground resounded in the courtyard. Zhou Yang stood there, his eyes cold and piercing.
This was how ungrateful he was!
Initially, he wasn't willing to give the Star Soul Stone to Ye Zhining because of Ye Haochen's character. However, in the end, he couldn't stand Ye Zhining's begging. Moreover, it was indeed useless for him to keep it.
However, his momentary benevolence was exchanged with ingratitude. He could imagine that if he wasn't a direct descendant of the General's residence, the Ye Family would have already killed him.
"Yang 'er, don't be angry. As long as you are firm enough and don't give up, all the people who ridicule and persecute you will only make you stronger."
The door opened, and a beautiful woman with half her face covered spoke as she walked in front of Zhou Yang.
Mother, Su Ruotong.
