Chapter 164 How can I bear it?
Shen Tianxiong had been a soldier for half his life, and had seen all kinds of storms and waves. But today, he was frightened by his "useless" son? How could he tolerate this?
"How dare you! Shen Lang, do you really think I dare not touch you?!" Shen Tianxiong roared, his voice like a bell, shaking the entire conference room. "Come on, come on! Whoever captures this rebellious son will be rewarded!"
The guards looked at each other in bewilderment. They had seen clearly what Shen Lang had done just now. He was no trash at all, but a ferocious beast in human form! But the master had given the order, and they, the servants, dared not disobey.
So a group of guards gritted their teeth, drew their swords, and surrounded Shen Lang and Shen Yue.
"A bunch of trash." The contempt in Shen Lang's eyes became even stronger. He slowly raised his right hand, put his index finger and middle finger together, and lightly stroked the guard in front of him.
“Sizzle!”
A visible golden energy shot out from Shen Lang's fingertips like lightning, instantly cutting off the swords in the hands of several guards. Before the guards could even react to what was happening, they were blown away by a huge force and fell heavily to the ground, wailing.
The entire conference room fell silent in an instant.
Everyone stared at this scene in amazement, as if time had stood still.
"This... How is this possible?" Shen Tianxiong looked at Shen Lang in horror, his eyes full of disbelief, "You... You actually..."
"What did I do?" Shen Lang sneered, and walked towards Shen Tianxiong step by step. With every step he took, his aura became stronger, and Shen Tianxiong was almost unable to breathe. "Do you really think that I am still the useless person you bullied before?"
"You...what do you want to do?" Shen Tianxiong asked in a timid tone, suppressing the fear in his heart.
"What do I want to do?" Shen Lang stopped and looked down at Shen Tianxiong, with a playful smile on his face. "What do you think? My good patriarch, my good father?"
At this moment, a cold mechanical voice suddenly sounded in Shen Lang's mind: "Ding! It is detected that the host is in a state of extreme anger. The system activation conditions have been met. The 'Invincible Villain System' is officially bound!"
"Invincible Villain System?" Shen Lang frowned slightly, but the system's prompt sounded involuntarily in his mind:
"Ding! The Invincible Villain System has been bound! This system is designed to help the host become a peerless villain, stir up the world, and ultimately achieve supreme hegemony!"
"System? Villain?" Shen Lang was stunned for a moment, then a playful arc appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Interesting, I want to see to what extent this system can help me."
"Ding! System binding successful! Detected the host's current status, and gave a novice gift pack! Do you want to open it?"
"Open it!" Shen Lang said without hesitation. Are you kidding? If you don't take advantage of an opportunity, you'd be a bastard.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for receiving the following rewards:
Supreme Constitution: Chaos Divine Body (activated)
Peerless Divine Skill: Heaven Devouring Magic Skill (automatically cultivated to the first level)
Mysterious weapon: ??? (to be unlocked)"
As the system finished speaking, a huge amount of pure energy instantly poured into Shen Lang's body. His originally thin body swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye he became tall and mighty, full of explosive power. At the same time, an extremely domineering aura emanated from his body, sweeping across the entire conference hall.
"This... what kind of power is this?" Shen Tianxiong looked at everything happening in front of him in horror. He felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He had never seen such a terrifying power. It seemed as if it could destroy the world.
The guards were so frightened that they were trembling with fear. The swords in their hands fell to the ground with a clang. They didn't even have the courage to run away.
Shen Lang clenched his fists, feeling the power surging in his body, and the smile on his lips became even stronger: "Is this the feeling of power? It's really fascinating!"
He raised his head and looked at Shen Tianxiong with cold eyes. He spoke slowly, his voice low and hoarse, like the devil's voice from the Nine Nether Hell: "Shen Tianxiong, don't you want to touch me? Come on!"
Shen Tianxiong was so frightened that he trembled all over. He pointed at Shen Lang and said tremblingly: "You...what kind of monster are you?!"
"Monster?" Shen Lang sneered, "From today on, I will be your lingering nightmare!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Lang flashed and instantly appeared in front of Shen Tianxiong. He formed five fingers into claws, grabbed his neck and lifted him up.
"Cough cough..." Shen Tianxiong's feet left the ground, his face flushed red, and he struggled desperately, but to no avail. He felt as if his neck was clamped by an iron clamp. It became more and more difficult to breathe, and his vision gradually became blurred.
"Stop... Stop..." Shen Tianxiong uttered a few words with difficulty, and fear finally appeared in his eyes.
"Are you scared now? It's too late!" Shen Lang's eyes flashed coldly, and the strength in his hands increased a bit. "Shen Tianxiong, don't you like to bully others? Don't you think I'm annoying? Today, I will let you know what true despair is!"
Shen Lang's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he was about to kill Shen Tianxiong, when suddenly, a clear voice came from outside the door: "Stop! You can't kill him!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a beautiful girl in white clothes, surrounded by a group of maids, walking quickly into the meeting room.
This girl was none other than Shen Lang's sister, Shen Yue.
"Yue'er?!" When Shen Lang saw Shen Yue, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and then his brows furrowed, "What are you doing here? It's dangerous here, go!"
Shen Yue ignored Shen Lang's warning and walked straight to him, raised her head, looked at him firmly, and said, "Brother, you can't kill him, he is our father!"
"Father?" Shen Lang laughed as if he had heard a funny joke. "He is worthy of being my father? Shen Yue, don't be naive! He has never considered us his children!"
"No! That's not the case!" Shen Yue shook her head desperately, "I know that my father did a lot of wrong things in the past, but he knows it now. He has been regretting and blaming himself. Give him a chance, and give yourself a chance, okay?"
Shen Lang was silent. He looked at his sister who was begging him desperately, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions. He knew that Shen Yue had been kind and innocent since she was a child. Unlike her cold-blooded brother, she always had a little fantasy about family affection, even if this family affection had long been shattered.
"Brother, please..." Shen Yue saw that Shen Lang had softened a little, and a glimmer of hope ignited in her eyes, tears welling up in her eyes, "As long as you are willing to let father go, I will do anything you want..."
Looking at Shen Yue's tearful appearance, Shen Lang's heart softened. He finally sighed and loosened his hand that was pinching Shen Tianxiong's neck.
"Cough cough..." Shen Tianxiong suddenly collapsed to the ground, breathing in the fresh air with deep gulps, his eyes filled with relief for surviving the disaster.
"Yue'er, go away. Don't come to see me again in the future." Shen Lang turned around, with his back to Shen Yue, and said in a cold tone.
"Brother..." Shen Yue wanted to say something but was interrupted by Shen Lang.
"Go!" Shen Lang turned around suddenly, a fierce look flashing in his eyes.
Shen Yue was frightened by Shen Lang's eyes. She dared not say anything more. She had to take her maids and quietly leave the conference room.
Shen Lang looked at Shen Yue's departing back, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, then he turned his head and looked at Shen Tianxiong who was limp on the ground, with a cold arc at the corner of his mouth:
"Shen Tianxiong, for Yue'er's sake, I will spare your life today. However, I will come back to settle this account with you sooner or later! We'll see!"
After saying that, Shen Lang no longer paid attention to Shen Tianxiong, turned around and walked out of the conference room.
"Wait!" Shen Tianxiong suddenly spoke in a hoarse voice, "Who... who are you?"
Shen Lang stopped, turned around, raised his lips with an evil arc, and said word by word: "Who am I? I am someone you can't afford to offend! From today on, I am the master of this world!"
After that, Shen Lang did not stop and walked out of the meeting room at a rapid pace, leaving Shen Tianxiong alone, slumped on the ground, his eyes full of fear and despair...
Shen Lang stood with his hands behind his back, proudly standing in the ruins of the meeting hall. His clothes rustled in the night wind, like a king dominating the world. Shen Tianxiong slumped on the ground, his eyes empty, as if he had lost his soul.
"Brother, you..." Shen Yue, who was watching from a distance, felt mixed emotions when she saw this scene. She wanted to step forward to dissuade him, but she didn't know how to start. This brother was no longer the gentle brother she remembered.
Shen Lang ignored Shen Yue, his eyes were always fixed on Shen Tianxiong.
"Shen Tianxiong, do you still remember how you treated me and my mother back then?" Shen Lang's voice was as cold as if it came from the Netherworld.
Shen Tianxiong's body trembled violently, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. He certainly remembered that in order to please his wife, he drove Shen Lang and his son to the most remote corner of the family and left them to fend for themselves.
"Why, are you scared?" Shen Lang's mouth curled up with a hint of sarcasm, "Don't worry, I won't let you die so easily. I will let you watch with your own eyes how the Shen family is destroyed in my hands!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful aura suddenly burst out from Shen Lang. This aura was like a raging storm, instantly sweeping across the entire Shen family compound.
"System, turn on the 'Tiger Roaring in the Forest' state for me!" Shen Lang said silently in his heart.
"Ding! The tiger roaring in the mountains state is activated successfully! The host's current state: strong enough to pull mountains and rivers!" The system's cold voice sounded in Shen Lang's mind.
Shen Lang felt a powerful force surging from deep within his body, and this force seemed to be about to burst his body.
"Is this the feeling of power?" Shen Lang clenched his fists, feeling the power surging in his body, a bloodthirsty arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Shen Tianxiong, prepare to accept my wrath!"
Shen Lang flashed and instantly appeared in front of Shen Tianxiong. He formed five fingers into claws and grabbed towards Shen Tianxiong's chest.
"Stop!" At this critical moment, an old voice exploded like thunder.
Immediately afterwards, a figure dropped from the sky and stood in front of Shen Tianxiong.
The person who came was a white-haired old man wearing a green robe. He had an immortal look and was intimidating without even getting angry.
"Grand Elder!" Seeing the person coming, Shen Tianxiong seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
Shen Lang frowned slightly, and a hint of solemnity flashed in his eyes.
This old man is the previous head of the Shen family and also the most powerful person in the Shen family, Shen Tianyun!
"Lang'er, stop it." Shen Tianyun looked at Shen Lang with a complicated look in his eyes. "I know that you are full of hatred in your heart. But when will the cycle of revenge end? For my sake, please let your father go this time."
"Let him go?" Shen Lang sneered, "Why? Just because he is my father? Does he deserve it?"
"How dare you!" Shen Tianyun's face darkened. "He is your father, this is an indisputable fact! No matter what he did, you shouldn't have attacked him!"
"Hahaha..." Shen Lang laughed up to the sky, his laughter filled with endless sadness and irony, "What an indisputable fact! Where was he when my mother was seriously ill? Where was he when I was bullied by my family? Now that I'm back, he wants me to consider the relationship between father and son? It's really ridiculous!"
