The Immortal King In The City

Chapter 5: Condolences

Views:

At 7:10 in the morning, after Chen Mo had finished washing up and had just finished breakfast outside, his mother Li Sufang called.

"Xiao Mo, you take a car to Hanyang Airport immediately and go to Yanjing with me to attend your grandma's funeral!" Li Sufang's voice was a little hoarse, and she had obviously cried.

After six hundred years, Chen Mo heard his mother's voice for the first time, and it felt like a lifetime ago.

After a short silence, Chen Mo said softly: "Mom, I'll be there right away. Please give me my condolences!"

"Well, I'll wait for you at the airport. Come here quickly."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Mo locked the door and left. He stopped a taxi on the road and said to the master, "Master, Hanyang Airport!"

The distance between Wuzhou City and Hanyang City is about 200 kilometers, and it can be reached in about two hours by highway.

The fat driver was excited when he heard that he was going to run a long distance. This trip would last him ten days in the city.

In the taxi, Chen Mo closed his eyes and thought deeply, falling into memories.

Chen Mo's mother Li Sufang is not an ordinary person, but a member of the Li family, one of the six super aristocratic families in Yanjing.

The Li family has had profound influence over the years, both in the military and in politics, and is powerful enough to influence Huaxia's future decisions.

However, the relationship between Li Sufang and her mother's family was not good, and they almost turned against each other.

At that time, Chen Mo's father Chen Jingye and Li Sufang were college classmates and fell in love freely. However, due to the huge gap in status, this relationship was opposed by everyone in the Li family from top to bottom, and became a laughing stock of other families in Yanjing.

But Li Sufang was stubborn and wanted to marry Chen Jingye wholeheartedly, even running away from home and breaking up with the family.

The head of the Li family, Li Dongyang, Chen Mo's grandfather, became so angry that if Li Sufang married Chen Jingye, she would be expelled from the Li family.

Li Sufang was heartbroken when she learned that her father was so heartless, but she did not flinch. She left Yanjing alone and married Chen Jingye.

The Li family kept their word and announced on the day of Chen Mo's parents' wedding that they would expel Li Sufang from the Li family and have nothing to do with it anymore. He also strictly ordered no one from the Li family and all affiliated families of the Li family to attend the wedding of Chen Mo's parents.

As a result of the Li family's strong stance, no one from Li Sufang's natal family arrived on the wedding day. What should have been a joyous wedding turned out to be extremely heavy.

After her marriage, Li Sufang became disillusioned with her family, and secretly worked hard to get better. She must make a career and impress the Li family!

It was not just Li Sufang who was hit. As a man, Chen Jingye also felt deeply humiliated.

In order to prove that Li Sufang was not wrong about herself, she refused the help of her family after graduation and came to Fengshan County alone. She started as a clerk, relied on her own strength, step by step, and finally became the deputy chief.

However, it is difficult to climb up without relying on connections or background. Therefore, although Chen Jingye has worked hard for most of his life, he can only stop at the position of deputy chief and make no progress.

So after Li Sufang's accident, she drank all day long to drown her sorrows, became depressed and became ill, and soon passed away.

Therefore, the Li family can be considered one of the culprits for the death of Chen Mo's parents in his previous life.

The relationship between Li Sufang and the Li family did not ease until Li Sufang established Meihua Group and successfully listed Meihua Group.

Only after the persuasion of Chen Mo's grandmother, Li Sufang's mother who loved Li Sufang the most, did Li Dongyang agree to return Li Sufang and Chen Mo to the door wall. Li Sufang is allowed to visit her mother once a year.

Fortunately, Li Sufang was not favored by the Li family, but after all, blood was thicker than water, and they had many years of family ties, so the Li family did not do anything to her.

But in the eyes of the Li family, Chen Mo was a complete outsider. The younger generation of the Li family even directly called Chen Mo, a bastard.

However, what the Li family thinks of Chen Mo is a family matter of the Li family. Since ancient times, family scandals must not be publicized, so the outside world does not know that Chen Mo's status in the Li family is actually worse than that of a dog.

Those second-rate families who have always wanted to cling to the Li family have their plans set on Chen Mo.

Marriage between the six major families has become an unwritten rule in Yanjing, so there is no need to think about it if the direct descendants of the Li family are direct descendants.

As for the collateral families, their status is far behind, and Chen Mo, the grandson of the head of the Li family, is undoubtedly the best candidate for those second-rate families to try to join the Li family.

As for Chen Mo, he is completely useless to the Li family. If he can be used to win over a second-rate family, the Li family will naturally be happy to see it happen.

So Chen Mo, who was ten years old, made a marriage contract with Yan Qingcheng, the granddaughter of the current head of the Yan family, a second-rate family in Yanjing.

Thinking of Yan Qingcheng, Chen Mo had a complicated expression.

When Yan Qingcheng got engaged to him, she was the same age as him and couldn't tell the difference between beauty and ugliness.

But it is said that women have great changes. Within a few years, Yan Qingcheng turned out to be the most beautiful woman in Yanjing, and became the object of pursuit by the young men. Even the most outstanding young generation among the six major families coveted Yan Qingcheng. It’s been a long time.

But such a stunning beauty was engaged to a dandy far away in Wuzhou City. When people think about it, they can't help but shake their heads and sigh. It's really like a flower stuck in cow dung.

In his previous life, Chen Mo didn't even dare to think about Yan Qingcheng. Until the Yan family broke off the engagement, he had never seen his fiancée.

There is no need to mention the later death of Chen Mo's parents and the decline of his family.

It wasn't until Chen Mo was taken away by Immortal Emperor Donghua that he discovered that this fiancée, who seemed to have nothing to do with him, had been helping him secretly and silently, so that he was not beaten to death by his enemies in the last few years.

Therefore, in this life, Chen Mo was still undecided on how to deal with Yan Qingcheng.

According to his past life memories, if he went to express condolences this time, he would be beaten half to death by the younger members of the Li family.

Li Sufang, who had lost her mother who had always loved her, was heartbroken and broke with Li Dongyang in public in order to seek justice for Chen Mo. She was expelled from the Li family again and never returned to the family.

After receiving the news, the Yan family hurriedly sent people to Wuzhou to break off the engagement, and even deliberately caused an uproar in the city. Everyone knew about it and Chen Mo was hit hard.

It was precisely because of these two events that Chen Mo's temperament changed drastically in his previous life, and he became brave after realizing his shame. But in the end, he was alone and outnumbered, and the outcome was bleak.

If he remembered correctly, the time for the Yan family to break off the engagement was exactly three days later!

If Chen Mo was just an ordinary person, he would be helpless even if he was reborn.

But in this life, Chen Mo was no longer an ordinary person, but a great cultivator of the Divine Transformation Realm who regarded the earth as nothing.

Facing the upcoming tribulation, Chen Mo didn't have the slightest fear, but instead had a vague expectation.

"Since we are reborn, we will eventually have to go through this mortal world again. The Li family, this time, I will first collect some interest from you, and we will settle our accounts slowly!"

For an old monster like Chen Mo who had lived for six hundred years, the two-hour journey passed by in a snap. Soon, Hanyang Airport was in sight.

After getting off the bus, Chen Mo settled the fare and called his mother.

"Mom, I'm here, where are you?"

"You come directly to the entrance of the hall, I'll wait for you here!"

Chen Mo glanced around, found the location of the airport hall, and walked quickly.
