As of the time I preview this... the texts were black... so here's hope!

The name immediate grabbed the attention of the other three. Let it be Mu Qingtong or Su Yiyang. Everybody stared at Cheng Biyuan intently. Long Yuze paused for a second upon hearing the name. The more he looked at Cheng Biyuan, the more surprised he was. This master Cheng in front of him did bear some resemblance with the Cheng’s in Emperor City.

The name immediate grabbed the attention of the other three. Let it be Mu Qingtong or Su Yiyang. Everybody stared at Cheng Biyuan intently. Long Yuze paused for a second upon hearing the name. The more he looked at Cheng Biyuan, the more surprised he was. This master Cheng in front of him did bear some resemblance with the Cheng’s in Emperor City.
Everybody in Emperor City had heard of Cheng Biyuan. He was once a
well known genius. Rumor had it that he started cultivating when he was four;
completed all preparatory steps by five; achieved martial apprentice by the
time he was seven; martial scholar by eight; martial master by nine, and
martial spiritualist by ten. This kind of talent shocked every one and words
traveled far. After all, it was almost impossible to achieve one level in one
year, except Cheng Biyuan had proven everyone wrong. Everybody called him the
demon.
After achieving martial spiritualist, he wasn’t able to gain
another level for three years. For his age, even being a martial spiritualist
would still make him a genius.
Nobody expected what happened when he was 14 – when he was
training outside, he was injured and nobody know by whom. He almost died and
what’s worse was that his cultivation started declining, from martial
spiritualist to level 1 martial scholar. He was no different than any other
person who practice martial art.
It was for this reason he was labeled as a loser by the Cheng’s
family. Everybody looked at him with disgust.
Cheng Biyuan, the eldest of the Cheng’s went from bringing honor to the
family to the shame of the family, turning into the laughing stock.
Of course, every one knew that something else happened at the
Cheng’s four year’s ago. Everybody sort of caught wind that Cheng Biyuan had
separated from the family and disappeared with his wife and children!
The Cheng Biyuan was almost forgotten by everyone since he was no
longer a genius so even though most had heard about his departure, nobody paid
it too much attention. That was why it had not occurred to anyone that Cheng
Biyuan was associated with the Cheng’s in Emperor City.
Now that Cheng Biyuan was standing in front of them, and that Xue
Xingchen and Lung Yuze thought that he looked somewhat familiar, they had
finally recalled the Cheng’s at Emperor City.
Mu Qingtong looked at Cheng Biyuan again and nodded subtly. He had
never met Cheng Biyuan before, but he was certainly this was the Cheng Biyuan
of the Emperor City’s Cheng’s family.
Even the students from School of Divine Condor was surprised. They
have more or less heard of Cheng Biyuan in the past; but nobody expect the one
standing in front of them was the same person. Everybody was shocked.
Hearing Xue Xingchen’s words, Cheng Xiao Xiao paused from a second
and so happened to notice her father’s body tensed up. She immediately realized
that he was, indeed, part of the Cheng’s in Emperor City.
Finally finding out the family history, Cheng Xiao Xiao was
genuinely surprised. She never would have guess that her parents belong to one
of the top seven most powerful families in Dafeng.
It was starting to look like their days going forward would be
more and more exciting!
Under the sharp look of these people, Cheng Biyuan nodded slightly
and said, “Yes, I am Cheng Biyuan. The Cheng Biyuan of Willow Village!”

Still, I don't understand why his family hated him so much? Is it something like you would better die than come back crippled?
ReplyDeleteIt's a world where 'might is right' plus they live in an extended family where they have all the main and branches mixed up together. You're only worth if you're useful. (Honestly most CN novels focus on this stuff is getting tiring.)
DeleteFamily politics is always so murky.
