The Favored Son of Heaven

“What? Qin Fen is going back to Shenyang to receive the award?”

A sharp and piercing high pitched female tone raised in the quiet courtyard. The anger in her words, even for those who did not recognize her, conveyed that this person had a strong hatred for Qin Fen.

Zhi sha…

The door of the villa in the courtyard slowly opened. Cao Rong switched off her handphone and went into the hall of the villa with a sullen face. Her mean face was like the venomous poison of an old witch from the fairy tale.

“Mother, is Qin Fen still alive?”

Liang Tao sat on a fully automatic wheelchair that could be operated with just the movement of a finger. From the corner of the hall, he stared at his mother coldly.

“He is living well…”

At the sight of her son only being able to sit in a wheelchair temporarily, Cao Rong’s hatred that had not been extinguished in her heart was once again burning. The already pale face became even more pale, “It’s all because of the poisonous tumor Qin Fen! My son can only sit in a wheelchair and I wasted so much of the public fund to hire a killer, and it’s all the poisonous tumor Qin Fen’s fault! I didn’t expect the blood ranking nine to be such trash!”

“Mother, I just received a message.” Liang Tao finger pressed a button on the wheelchair lightly, and a series of sounds slowly rose.

“Liang Tao, have you heard? That Qin Fen who made you temporarily disabled has offended Song Wendong! That’s right, the Earth Martial God Song Wendong! The angered hidden emperor said that if anyone can beat Qin Fen in a one-on-one battle would be qualified to ask for a hand in marriage into the Song Family. ”

The hall fell into a silence where even the sound of a needle drop could be heard. Liang Tao’s eyes flashed with viciousness.

Cao Rong looked at her son with delight. The son that used to rely on his family’s influence to cause trouble outside and attained achievements has now begun to learn to use his brain and create such a conspiracy!

“Song Wendong… Song Wendong…” Cao Rong clenched one of her fists and pounded her other hand’s palm repeatedly. “Good, very good. This is an opportunity. This is indeed a good opportunity! We can use this opportunity, along with other ways, to kill him before he returns to the recruit camp! Those who hit my son — I make sure he uses his life to repay that debt!”

“Cao Rong!”

Outside the hall, a deep roar could be heard. Cao Rong’s thin figure trembled violently and with horror in her eyes, looked at her third brother Cao Bo who entered the room with a push on the door, his face filled with so much anger it was sufficient enough to kill someone.

This fast? Cao Rong’s eyes were timid. Such anger could only be one thing… that the truth behind that incident…

Pa…

A crisp slap rang in the hall. Cao Bo’s right hand kept shaking, the anger in both his eyes had not reduced and he stared intently at his sister who sat on the ground after the slap.

“How dare you use the federal public funds? How could you use such a large sum of money? Are you crazy? The Cao family member is not only you! This is a family! What do you want to do? Do you want to ruin the Cao family? What did you do with the money? Spit it out!”

The series of thunderous questions was returned with a spiteful stare and with a corner of the lip that was smeared with bloody red, Cao Rong sneered, “What did I do? I used it to hire an assassin to kill someone. Are you going to avenge my TaoTao? Didn’t you say you would not give me any money? That is why I used the public funds.”

“Avenge?” Cao Bo’s eyes had a trace of despair, “What kind of avenging can I do for you? What did Qin Fen do? He brought glory to the East Asia Military Region! What can your son do? You used tricks to rob Qin Fen of his tournament spot first, but you won’t allow him to take it back fair and square? And now you hired a killer? Good, good! Great! You won’t be satisfied unless you’re dragging the Cao’s family name through the mud! In a month’s time, you better return the funds that you used, or else …”

“Don’t you worry. I will return the money.” Cao Rong wiped the trace of blood that was on the corner of her lip and with abnormal hysteria in her eyes, she said, “I have spoken to dear mother about this. She will help me accumulate the funds and return it to you. You don’t have to worry about this.”

“And Qin Fen, don’t you touch him anymore. He is an excellent soldier. Although he has yet to shine, the previous recruit contest is already a good springboard for him…”

“No!” Cao Rong’s shriek was so sharp it could even shatter the glass. “I must kill him! The glory he took in this recruit tournament was my son’s! He robbed my son of his glory and injured him! I want Qin Fen dead! How could they compare the champion of the Recruit Tournament with the weight of our Cao family? If you think about it, the Federation will make a correct measurement.”

“You are killing people and committing crimes, today I will…”

“My third child, I will help the youngest one with the money soon. You should not interfere with the other things.”

Cao Bo looked up at his eighty-year-old mother, who was walking down the stairs step by step. The white silver hair with eyebrows of joy should have brought a kindness that could not be described.

However, the face of the old woman flashed with ruthless coldness.

Cao Bo sighed in his heart and shook his head again and again. This sister had been spoiled by his mother. Even such a big thing like murdering someone could be said without a care.

“Keke…” Cao Rong looked at the back of her brother during his departure and smirked arrogantly, “Don’t act like you have filial piety. If you are really filial to mother, you should use your strength to kill Qin Fen.”

Shush!

Cao Bo suddenly turned back and his pair of slightly depressed eyes suddenly shot two beaming lights, “Killing someone is not a trivial matter. Moreover, as a person, you should have a conscience. If you do things against your conscience, you will receive retribution.”

“Retribution?” Cao Rong’s laughter became more hysterical and mad, “What is retribution? The person that should receive retribution is Qin Fen! He hit my son and took my son’s spot! Since the gods did not take him down, I will take him down in place of the gods!”

Cao Bo’s face turned pale. At this moment, he began to understand why his brother-in-law would rather carry the bad reputation of having an affair, giving up a comfortable living environment, to live with an ordinary woman outside.

Enough! I really had enough! This sentence that his brother-in-law, Liang Aimin once said, echoing in Cao Bo’s ear.

“My youngest child, off you go too.” Old Lady Diao stood in the middle of the stairs, waving her hand gently, the string of rosary swaying slightly, “The youngsters nowadays are getting more and more lawless, how dare they hit my grandson? Go and do what you need, I’ll bear the consequences of everything.”

“Yes, Mother.”

Cao Rong’s eyes were full of smiles. With this sacred command, even if the third brother was to interfere, would be pointless.

The hall quickly recovered its silence while a military airport in Shenyang was still very lively.

The crowd of recruits who participated in the recruit competition walked out the gates of the military airport. Two young people who wore loose martial artist attire looked at the crowd of recruits with ill intent and finally locked their eyes on Qin Fen.

“Are you Qin Fen?”

“I am Pang Zhifeng! I have come to challenge you.”

The recruits heard these two sentences and their faces showed sympathy towards Qin Fen. He had just gotten off the plane and immediately people were coming to look for him. Song Wendong’s words were indeed influential. If they were unaware of how strong Qin Fen was… the mass of recruits also had doubts about whether or not they could have resisted this temptation.

Qin Fen frowned and stretched his lips. What is this called? On normal occasions, whether it was in the sky battle network or the recruit camp, you need to pay a fee to challenge someone!

Nowadays… Qin Fen released a sigh again. Now upon the face of challenge, he was unable to ask for a challenge fee. If he did not accept the challenge, it would mean that he admitted defeat and his wife would belong to someone else.

Looking at the two five-star martial artists, Qin Fen was too lazy to even use the strength of his fingers. He said bluntly, “I am in a hurry, both of you come at me together.”

“Together? How does that work? After we win, who is considered the winner?”

“Haha, this is simple.” Xue Tian said was calmly, “When it happens, why don’t the both of you decide a winner among yourself?”

The two challengers were stunned, nodded repeatedly and praised Xue Tian’s method. This instantly made the other recruits to laugh.

“It’s decided then. I will be the referee.” Xue Tian stood in the center between both sides and his hand waved downwards, “Begin!”

Immediately afterward, the crowd of recruits saw the two challengers turn into projectiles that formed two imperfect parabolic lines in the air. Even their belts rolled on the ground for a distance of more than ten meters before it stopped

“Terrible! It’s just terrible! I can not bear to watch anymore…” Xue Tian covered his eyes, pick up the pace while he walked right past the two groaning challengers that were on the ground and show a very sympathetic demeanor. Some of the recruits could not hold back and laughed at Xue Tian’s act.

Once they stepped out of the airport gate, the recruits followed Zhao Huzi all the way. The military department prepared a luxury bus specifically for pick-up and drop-off. All they need was to take this corner…

“Are you Qin Fen…”

While he took the corner, Qin Fen looked at another young man in a martial artist attire, nodded and asked, “Here to challenge?”

“Yes…” The challenger was surprised. Why does the person who was challenged show such an impatient face?

Qin Fen asked impatiently, “Are you ready? I am in a hurry?”

“Ah? Yes, I am…”

Bang… swoosh… dong…

The sound of a kick, the sound of the flight in the air, and also the sound of rolling after a huge fall to the ground connected rhythmically. The challenger held his lower abdomen with both hands while his body curled into a shrimp-like state, his mouth continuously spraying white foam.

Since getting off the plane, getting out of the airport, and going to the bus, he had encountered three batches of challengers. Regardless of how patient Qin Fen was, his patience was greatly reduced by such frequent challenges. Anyway, the challenge was to rob your wife, what an embarrassment!

As a man, one could be patient about other matters, but how could someone endure such a thing? If one could still maintain a smiling face when someone comes to rob him of his wife, Qin Fen doubted that the person could still be regarded as a man.
