Chapter 3: Decision
Fang Zheng was stunned for a second, but the look on his face quickly emerged a joyful smile and he said, "To be honest, ever since both my parents died I have longed very much for a family of my own. To be able to become a family with Aunt and Uncle, this is too good to be true!"
Aunt's expression loosened and she laughed, "Then you are our good son, shouldn't you stop calling us Aunt and Uncle?"
"Father, mother." Fang Zheng in a state of realization changed his statement. Aunt and Uncle laughed heartily. "What a good son, not a waste of us husband and wife to raise you since you were five years old. And we have raised you for ten whole years," Aunt wiped her tears. Uncle looked at the silent Fang Yuan and said gently, "Fang Yuan, how about you?"
Fang Yuan smiled "I would love to as well you two have been like a father and mother to me as well but the other day, I'm not gonna say who but a couple of people representing different groups approached me asking if I would agree to be adopted by them in exchange they would give me 1000 primeval stones and wholeheartedly support my cultivation, resources, and Gu."
He feined a 'sad' expression "I'm really sorry uncle and aunt, I have to think of myself as well I do have an 'A grade talent' I'm destined for great things unless you guys would be able to support me instead if not I might have to go 'independant" as he put extra emphasis on the words 'A grade talent' and 'indepependant'
"Big brother how can you be like this father and mother have always been kind to us how can you leave just cause of wealth-h" shouted Fang Zheng in rage yet secret delight as he was happy his brother being wrong and him being right, but was stunned by his uncles next words.
His uncle and aunts face tensed when they heard the second word before Gu Yue Dong Tu's face relaxed as he caught on to the intent of Fang Yuan's words before giving Fang Yuan a deep look and said "I understand Fang Yuan you do have a boundless future waiting ahead of you but me and you, me and your aunt just love the both of you too much so I'm willing to give you 2000 primeval stones and wholly support your cultivation with the best of my abilities, so I'll ask again, Fang Yuan are you willing to become our son"
Fang Yuan smiled and happily said "father, mother"
Gu Yue Dong Tu and his wife also beamed and nodded "good, good come sons lets eat breakfast" with that he and his wife led by the servants headed to the dining room with Fang Yuan following behind.
Fang Zheng who was still in his kneeling position was staring blankly at his brothers back who seemed to be growing bigger and bigger.
Why
Why
Why!!!
Why was his brother getting the better treatment again where he got 6 primeval stones and his brother getting 10 and why was aunt and uncle willing to give such wealth to him just so he would be their son so what if he left, I'm here to you know what's so different about us other than him being handsome, looks don't matter what matters is talent isn't that why you were treating him so well? Now I also have an A grade why why WHY.
Fang Yuan who was following behind his aunt and uncle stopped for a moment to look back to his brother, Fang Zheng oh Fang Zheng why you seem more foolish than all the other yous in my past lives.
Hearing the lack of footsteps from behind Gu Yue Dong Tu turned back and urged Fang Yuan to come but also caught sight of the forgotten Fang Zheng and thought sigh how stupid and naive even with an A grade talent you will only end as other's tool, then also spoke "what's wrong Fang zheng hurry up"
Roused from his thoughts he quickly stood up to follow "coming father"
During breakfast, Gu Yue Dong Tu coughed "ahem Fang Yuan we know a week ago you turned Shen Cui from a girl into a woman and we know you have taken a liking to her and she too has taken a liking to you to, me and your mother decided to make her your personal servant now and if you have more problems in the future got it"
Fang Yuan secretly smirked "of course father when I have success in cultivation I won't forget to repay you"
Gu Yue Dong Tu hearing that his little scheme worked, satisfied he continued on with breakfast with some idle talk. While Fang Zheng who had his head down silently eating and listening vowed that he will take everything from his brother and make his 'father' and 'mother' regret their favoritism towards his big brother.
After breakfast, both brothers headed back to their rooms to either cultivate or refine their Gu's. after going back to his room Fang Yuan waited for a moment to make sure no one was peeking before he brought out his Liquor Worm Gu and started feeding his primeval essence to the Gu slowly turning his green copper primeval essence into a darker shade.
By the time it was lunch he had turned 10% of his primeval essence into 5% primeval rank 1 middle primeval essence. With this speed of the Northern Dark Ice Soul physique and the Liquor, Worms help he should be able to reach rank 4 before the Gu Yue ancestor comes out, breathing out he began to rest for a moment before continuing.
