Words:871Update:22/06/30 03:58:32
The Zhan Family Clan was one of the most ancient families in the Middle Realm and they had once flourished. Even before the Nine Temples and Twelve Palaces were built, they had already made a name for themselves in the Middle Realm. With the passage of time, the Zhan Family Clan had experienced the accumulation of generations after generations of family members and the treasures they possessed had become rather impressive. It was because they had obtained more treasures and the Zhan Family Clan had their own unique way of cultivating spirit power that not many people in the Middle Realm dared to offend them.
Although the Zhan Family Clan was unable to dominate the Middle Realm, but they had the ability to protect themselves.
After the Nine Temples and Twelve Palaces were built, the Middle Realm was embroiled in endless battles and the Zhan Family Clan had always maintained an attitude of self-preservation and did not participate in any of the battles.
The Zhan Family Clan had once been glorious but after that, their numbers dwindled and when it came to Zhan Miao's generation, they had only had one son for three generations. Even his grandfather's generation only had his grandfather's bloodline and they did not even have sisters.
The Zhan Family Clan had always kept a low profile but for some unknown reason, the generations of Clan Leaders did not die of old age and the number of heirs they left behind was extremely few. When it came to Zhan Miao, he and his wife had been in love for more than ten years and when he was close to forty, they only had one son and his wife had died during childbirth.
Leaving behind only one son, Zhan Qu.
Zhan Miao had not married because he missed his wife so much and had only devoted himself to nurturing his son, Zhan Qu.
"Zhan Qu is my only son and the future successor of the Zhan Family Clan." Elder Ying said with a bitter smile as he looked at the jade pendant in his hand. Without even raising his head, he said as if talking to himself: "This jade pendant, is the proof of the Zhan Family Clan's inheritance. I personally hung it on Zhan Qu's waist when he turned sixteen ….."
"Zhan Qu is very intelligent and he learns the cultivation technique very quickly. Our Zhan Family Clan has only one family rule, we are not allowed to join any powers and we are not allowed to come into contact with any powers ….." When he said that, Elder Ying's gaze involuntarily lowered.
The Zhan Family Clan's family rule was followed by generations of the clan members. This family rule was left behind by the ancestors of the Zhan Family Clan. As for what it was exactly, they did not know but they just followed the ancestor's words.
But on that day, when Zhan Qu came back with a beautiful lady and told Elder Ying that he was going to take her as his wife, Elder Ying was initially delighted, until ….. Elder Ying came to know that the lady was someone from the Nine Temples and he was completely enraged.
Because of the family teachings, Elder Ying was strongly against the marriage between Zhan Qu and the young lady, and had forcefully severed all ties between them.
Zhan Qu continued to resist, and in the end, he did not even hesitate to cut off all ties with the Zhan Clan, bringing that girl far away.
Before they left, Elder Ying and Zhan Qu quarreled and Elder Ying personally broke the Zhan Family's heirloom jade pendant, which was then taken away by Zhan Qu in the end.
It was only several years after Zhan Qu had left that the rage in Elder Ying's heart slowly dissipated. Looking at the empty Zhan Family Clan, he would often wonder if he had done something wrong. Why did he have to force his only son away because of the family's teachings?
The regret in his heart spread through Elder Ying's heart and in the fifth year after his son left, people from the Shadow Moon Palace came to find him and handed half of the jade pendant to Elder Ying.
At that moment, Elder Ying knew that his son Zhan Qu had died three years ago, and Zhan Qu's wife and child had gone missing, their fates unknown!
