Chapter 5 - Volume 1: The Youth's Downfall Chapter 5: The Past of Chen Anna

That night, Cheng Fei lay in bed, not a shred of sleepiness, recalling the bits and pieces of these days, now the Ether Academy had a lot of complaints about him, even Yi Xili had come out,

 A good student was ordered not to attend the physical training class...

 Cheng Fei felt very aggrieved, after all, he was just a child, but what Yi Xili said later made Cheng Fei think a little,

 The so-called physical fitness class is merely a formality, aiming to show students a path along the way of cultivation, telling them how and where to go on the path of cultivation. However, the paths taken by true masters are all derived from their own exploration and perception. The methods summarized by predecessors may not be suitable for you, nor can they be suitable for all future generations. On the path of cultivation, it all depends on oneself. What others say is their business, but as long as you believe in yourself, nothing in the world is impossible."

 "Nothing is impossible as long as you believe in yourself,"

 In the courtyard, Cheng Fei gazed quietly at the sky, his eyes vacant and confused. He knew very well that he was nothing but a child abandoned by his father with no future,

 Am I a child abandoned by my father?

 HMPH, HMPH, I'm just a child abandoned by my family?

 In recent years, he has been working hard. He knew he could not achieve anything on his spiritual journey, so he began to learn to do laundry, cook, chop firewood, as a servant at an early age...

 He tried to do everything that servants could do, not for anything else but to get a little affirmation from his father, just a word of affirmation from his father.

 How I wish my father would say, "My food is good," "My clothes are clean," or "Come on, come on!" but why, why, all these years, my father never smiles at me, why, in front of my elder brother and sister, why...

 "Why, after six years of hard work, I'm still being driven here, why,"

 Young Cheng Fei pounded the stump hard, seemingly forgetting the pain, until he could no longer do so.

 "Clang ~~"

 An ancient sheepskin scroll, twice the size of a palm, fell from Cheng Fei. The scroll was pale yellow, and because of its age, it was so tattered that the handwriting on it was hardly legible and could only be barely recognized by looking and guessing.

 This sheepskin scroll was picked up by chance from the ancestral hall when Cheng Fei was seven years old. At that time, he was too young and did not quite understand the meaning of the characters, but because it was picked up from the ancestral hall, it was said to have spiritual energy and that carrying it would ensure a lifetime of peace and good fortune, so he carried it with him all the time.

 Cheng Fei froze for a moment, then put away the sheepskin scroll and went back to his room.

 The next day, early in the morning, lazy, the two Kings rushed to the training area. One didn't have time to brush his teeth, the other didn't have time to wash his face. They arrived at the training area with the sound of the bell. If they had been a little later, they would have had a nightmarish exhaustion.

 Because Yi Xili had made it clear that Cheng Fei did not need to go to the physical training class, he did not go in and just wandered outside the training area.

 In the quiet mountain forest, gusts of strong wind would blow from time to time, like fine sand flowing rapidly, hitting the face and causing a burning and stinging pain.

 A forsaken young man just wandered aimlessly among them. All these years, it wasn't that he didn't want to practice martial arts, but that he simply couldn't. Let alone practice martial arts, he couldn't even run five kilometers. He didn't know why his body was so weak in the whole family and why he couldn't practice martial arts. Father has also openly said: You have a disadvantage, that is, you will never become a cultivator.

 "Young Master Cheng," hearing a voice of surprise, Cheng Fei turned his head and saw that it was the receptionist who had received him on the first day of school - Sister Cheng! Like herself, she also came here alone for a walk,

 Cheng Fei froze for a moment, suddenly remembering the huge public opinion attacks on him all these days outside, he frowned, "Why you? What are you doing here?"

 There was still a tear in the corner of Chen's eye, clearly something had just happened, but when she saw Cheng Fei, she still forced a smile, "Walking and walking, I accidentally ended up here. I didn't expect to run into Mr. Cheng again."

 Cheng Fei has no affection for all the students of the Ethereum Academy now. He hates them to death. One day I will rub them to death.

 Although Sister Chen is very beautiful, she doesn't bother to look at her anymore and just turns away. These days, the Ether has been too much of an exclusion of Cheng Fei. If this goes on, it won't be long before someone above tells him to pack up and get out. If he really gets out, then his father will surely be even more disappointed with him...

 In this situation, I'm in a dilemma!

 "Mr. Cheng." When she saw him turning to leave, she said,

 "Oh, what's wrong?"

 "Can we sit down and talk?"

 Cheng Fei frowned, and seeing that a "no" was about to come out of his mouth, Sister Chen immediately added, "I have always respected Young Master Cheng's character, please do not refuse."

 There happened to be a stone-backed bench by the roadside, and the two of them made do with it and sat down there.

 "Speak up. What do you have to say to me?" Cheng Fei said, somewhat displeased.

 Sister Chen smiled and said, "I want to say that the young master is actually very happy now."

 Cheng Fei was puzzled, and Chen went on, "At least, the young master is now living a very peaceful life. He doesn't have to struggle for a living. He has a group of good friends and can do what he wants. In my opinion, this is already very happy."

 "Is this also called happiness?" " If even father is hopeless about himself, what happiness is there to talk about?

 "The young master grew up in a noble family and had everything he wanted. Of course, he thought it was nothing, but in the lower class, there was a situation where people had no food to eat and no water to drink every day. Many people had to break up their families for a living, and even their families were broken... Have you ever thought about the lives of those people, Sir?

 Cheng Fei was taken aback. He had never thought about this before and had no idea about it at all. His father had never mentioned anything about it.

 "My father was a gambler. He owed a large amount of gambling debt in his early years. Because of the poor family situation and the repeated coming of the creditors, when I was six years old, my father actually sold my mother to the creditors as a sex slave. Then he went to gamble and owed a huge amount of gambling debt in order to repay the gambling debt..."

 "Your father sold you too." Cheng Fei interjected. In fact, it was just something he said casually.

 "Yes, father sold me to pay off the gambling debt, HMPH, father actually sold his own daughter just to pay off the gambling debt," Chen said with a self-mocking smile.

 Cheng Fei was stunned for a while, and suddenly thought of his father. Then he laughed, "Father, don't worry. I will never let you down. One day I will become as strong as the uncle."

 I will never let you down!

 "Yes, as long as you have faith in yourself, nothing is impossible. Brother is only twenty-three years old this year and is already a mid-level master of the Heavenly Way. Sister, who is only eighteen years old, has reached the peak of the earthly realm and has the possibility of breaking through at any time. And father, I heard that he reached the peak of the Heavenly Way as early as fifty years ago and is about to break through now, Uncle Xiang is at the lower level of the immortal path. I can't hold the family back any longer, though I'm very weak, I don't believe I can't find a way for me to practice. Right, Yi Xili is actually here. According to Sakda, he broke through the earthly realm at the age of twelve, broke through the heavenly Way and entered the immortal path at the age of fourteen. Now more than thirty years have passed, he should at least be in the middle of the immortal path, the middle of the immortal path, He is definitely a first-rate master on the continent of Augustus. Since he has reached such a high level at such a young age, there must be something extraordinary about him.

 As long as he's willing to help me, I might still have hope, yes, as long as he's willing to help me, I will have hope,"

 Every rank in practice has four levels, namely the lower, the middle, the upper, and the peak.

 Cheng Fei is well aware that on the path of cultivation, the gap between different levels is unimaginable. For example, between Foundation and Earth Realm, although these are two connected levels, ten thousand foundation peak experts combined may not be a match for one Earth Realm lower level, and the higher up, the greater the awareness:

 If 100,000 Foundation peak experts =1 Earth Realm lower expert, then perhaps 10,000,000 Earth Realm peak experts =1 Heaven Dao lower expert...

 And the gap between different levels within the same level is also quite large, and as the level increases, the gap also widens, for example:

 One hundred lower-level experts equal one mid-level expert, perhaps 10,000 mid-level experts equal one upper-level expert, 100,000 upper-level experts equal one peak expert...

 Xiang Shu and Yi Xili are both immortal path experts, but one is a lower and the other is a middle, and the gap between them is quite huge. From the lower to the middle, even for a genius, it would take a white year to break through.

 Father can't do it. Maybe Yi Xili has a way.

 Thinking of this, Cheng Fei gave a smile.

 But there was one thing Cheng Fei didn't know. If he had known, he wouldn't have thought that way.

 He was born without a heart,

 The heart is the most essential thing for a person to survive. Without it, there is no way to live.

 Sister Chen was still talking about her family background, and as she spoke, she burst into tears, which made Cheng Fei a little nervous. He had not feared many things in his life, but he was very afraid of girls crying. After all, he was a thirteen-year-old boy, but because of his height, outsiders regarded him as a sixteen or seventeen-year-old.

 Cheng Fei felt rather sympathetic about Chen Jie's family background, but was a little flustered when he saw her crying as she spoke.

 "Can I borrow your shoulder?"

 "Oh, of course." Cheng Fei was somewhat taken aback, but still allowed Chen Anna to come closer.

 Looking at this petite and weak woman, not expecting such a tragic fate, Cheng Fei gently patted her back and said, "Don't be sad anymore."

 At this moment,

 Not far away, a sound of footsteps was heard, followed by the voice of someone talking.

 "I've heard that Cheng Fei, the new student at school, has been fainting frequently during training. He's really disgracing us men. He's not even as good as a girl. As a man, I feel so embarrassed. Mike, what do you think of this?" A blond man shook his head disdainfully and said,

 Along with the blond man came a tall, thin, handsome little white face, which the blond man referred to as Mike.

 The young man took a deep breath and said, "No good, really no good, really disgracing us men. If you see him in the future, you must teach him a good lesson, Martin. What's going on with Anna Chen recently?"

 The blond man, clearly more respectful of Mike, replied seriously, "Since her father's old gambler sold her to you, of course she must abide by the contract and be your sex slave forever."

 Mike smiled with satisfaction: "That bitch does have some good looks. Otherwise, I wouldn't have spent ten gold coins to pay off that old gambler's debts." "

 Martin chuckled and said, "Yes, that girl must be very smart. You'll have a treat tonight." "

 Mike laughed and said, "Then you'll have to make that bitch live or die, hahaha, and by the way, how about the matter you asked about yesterday?"

 "You mean that new beauty - Qiu Yan, ha ha, rest assured, with you involved, what woman in this world would dare not submit to your tyranny?"

 "Ha ha ha... Martin, Martin, really have you, hahaha... Before he could finish his words, Mike noticed Cheng and Fei not far away.

 Chen Jie, leaning on Cheng Fei's shoulder, was exactly the Chen Anna that Mike was talking about.

 The smiles of both of them gradually froze.
