I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

Chapter 800

Bam!

Following a deafening sound, the stone gate was finally opened, and Chen Hao slowly made his way out from the inside.

Although five years had passed, he still looked the same.

If anything had changed, it was his demeanor.

Now, he was exuding an air of superiority.

“Sir!”

Everyone else bowed at 90 degrees to Chen Hao.

“Yes.”

Chen Hao nodded his head slightly and turned to look at Su Tongxin.

“Chen Hao, you’re finally out!” exclaimed Su Tongxin gladly.

“Yes. I had to increase the rate of my cultivation, or else I won’t be able to handle the incessant attacks from the People’s Palace and those fighters of the King of Kings!” said Chen Hao.

“Sir, you are giving off a very extraordinary aura. Have you achieved the state of Eighth Tier of the King of Kings after the cultivation this time?” asked Xiao Cangsheng in shock after noticing the change in Chen Hao.

“Yes. Because of the Vital Spirit Source, I’ve already achieved the Eighth Tier half a year ago. However, I will not be able to improve further for the remaining eight years.”

As the Ninth Tier was the most advanced level of a stage, it had never been an easy task to achieve it. Even for Chen Hao, it would be an arduous task to make a breakthrough to the Ninth Tier.

After making great effort in improving his cultivation for the second half of the year, Chen Hao realized how hard it was to achieve the state of Ninth Tier of the King of Kings.

Most of the time, Chen Hao had qualms about himself, where he seriously doubted his own capability.

Back then, he would get some sort of response from his cultivation regardless of whether he managed to make a breakthrough or not.

However, during the process to make the breakthrough from the Eighth Tier to the Ninth Tier, every one of his attempts at cultivating led to no avail and no effect.

Chen Hao was getting anxious because of that.

Initially, when Chen Hao obtained the map with the location of the Origin Herb, he planned to look for it after achieving the Ninth Tier. He hoped that one day, he would achieve the legendary state of Immortality.

By then, Chen Hao would finally have the real authority to make a decision before the entire People’s Palace.

However, his cultivation of the past one year brought him back to reality.

Making a breakthrough to the Ninth Tier was already an extremely grueling process. He felt hopeless, not to even mention achieving the legendary state of Immortality.

“Did anything happen during the period of my seclusion?” asked Chen Hao.

Hearing this, all The Ten Elders held their heads low.

At last, Master Ghost spoke up. “Sir, the Qin Family from the Border Realm sent some of their men here to bring Miss Su back a year ago. What’s more, they threatened that if you c-continue…”

Master Ghost hesitated at the end.

“Continue doing what?” challenged Chen Hao with a frown.

The Qin Family from the Border Realm was the family that gave Tongxin a shelter back then.

The Qin Family was very powerful in the Border Realm. For all these years, they had provided support to numerous forces on earth. NôvelDrama.Org content.

If it wasn’t for Chen Diancang who had colluded with them secretly, it was unknown when he would be able to locate Tongxin.

Naturally, he could not avoid interacting with the Qin Family all these years.

The force behind the Qin Family was the League of the Sun.

This was what Chen Hao was afraid of the most.

Therefore, he had to improve his cultivation as soon as possible.

After all, he was still a much weaker fighter than them.

“They said, if you continue to be so persistent, you will no longer be interacting with the Qin Family on earth. Instead, they will send over a really highly-skilled fighter to take your life!” reported Master Ghost frankly.

“I’ve got it!” Chen Hao knitted his brows together.

Noticing Chen Hao’s expression, Master Ghost wished to continue but stopped on second thought. With great effort, he held his tongue.

As for Su Tongxin, she too lowered her head in self-reproach.

However, the subtle change in their facial expressions still attracted Chen Hao’s attention.

“Are the men from the People’s Place here to look for trouble again?” asked Chen Hao.

“They visit here frequently, but we’ve already gotten used to it!”

“How about my parents and my sister?” inquired Chen Hao with a frown.

“Hmm…”

Master Ghost’s wrinkled face went frozen and pale at once.

The Ten Elders all bowed down and held their heads low. They didn’t even dare to breathe.

As for Su Tongxin, two streams of tears started to flow down her face at the moment.

She covered her mouth and started sobbing.

“Why? What on earth happened?” yelled Chen Hao.

The Ten Elders directly knelt down.

Su Tongxin was crying even louder.

Gulping, Master Ghost continued, “A year ago, we had a huge fight with the Qin Family from the surface of earth. At that time, even some of the men of the Qin Family from the Border Realm had

barged in! We could not fight them at all. They wanted to take Miss Tongxin away and kill you! They threatened to carry out a massacre on the town if we did not offer Miss Su to them within three days.”

“What happened next?” Chen Hao’s eyes were slightly reddened.

“The Qin Family from the Border Realm paid no regard at all to the agreement they had reached with the People’s Palace, and they killed many members of the Chen family. Young Master Yonghao had his eyes dug out and his tongue cut off because he had an argument with them!”

“Elder Lin Jiu also had one of his arms chopped off by them!”

Chen Hao was deeply shaken.

“Yonghao…”

He thought of his godbrother who finally had the chance to enjoy life after suffering a great deal by living together with him. However, he was now reduced to his current state because of himself.

As for Lin Jiu…

Chen Hao looked in the direction of Lin Jiu.

Only then did he realize that one of Lin Jiu’s arms had long disappeared.

Tears started to well up in Chen Hao’s eyes as he grabbed hold of Liu Jiu’s empty sleeves.

He stared at Lin Jiu in a daze.

“Cough, cough. Sir, don’t forget that I am a left-hander. It’s fine for them to chop off my right hand as I feel even more comfortable without it!” said Lin Jiu with his eyes tinged with a layer of moisture.

Chen Hao started to sob.

He turned around and stared at Master Ghost sternly. “What else?”

“At the time, we had already hidden Miss Su somewhere but this was unknown to her. I knew that they were not only here to bring Miss Su away, but also to rob our Vital Spirit Source on behalf of the Qin Family. They would support the Qin Family to be crowned as the King of the North Realm, and they wanted to kill you! Therefore, everyone from the Yexuan Palace never revealed your location to them even though they might have gotten killed!”

“However, as a warning to you, they first attacked Young Master Yonghao and then your family. They broke both of your parents’ legs and tied them up with metal chains. Also, they abducted Miss Chen Xiao and said they would force her to serve as a slave to the Qin Family from the Border Realm for a hundred years!”

“What did you say?!”

Chen Hao let out a deafening roar.

His body was buzzing with vital energy and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

“Sir, it was me who made the decision to keep this from you. It’s because they would have killed you if you had appeared. By then, everything would be finished. Everyone would be killed by the Qin Family, and they would be crowned as the King of North Realm. Throughout the past few years, we have made numerous contributions to the People’s Palace. Although we have disputes with them from time to time, they decided to step forward and mediate the conflict. They allowed us a year’s time so that you could bring Miss Su back after a year and accept your death! Only then will the Chen Family members get to live!” Master Ghost knelt down on the floor and burst out crying.

Despite being livid, Chen Hao knew that it was the best possible outcome. Otherwise, each and every one of them would have been slaughtered by the Qin Family.

By then, the number of people who would have died for him would be countless.

But then, his sister… and his family members!

Chen Hao clenched both of his fists tightly as he thought about them…
