Chapter 312 - 312 Dong Weifeng's betrayal
Although Shun Long's voice wasn't loud, it was filled with so much anger and killing intent, that Shun Fang didn't doubt that if the people responsible were in front of him right now, they wouldn't even die with their corpses intact.
With a serious look in his eyes, Shun Fang nodded his head, and after adjusting his seating posture with some difficulty, he looked at Shun Long's eyes before he said seriously
''It all started a week ago.
Dong Weifeng came to our house and explained to me that he was facing a serious problem.
His third son, Dong Lingyuan that disgusting brat, seduced the daughter of a rank 2 Heaven grade expert from one of the nearby kingdoms.
Even I don't know how he managed to come in contact with her and how he ended up seducing her, but it was said that that woman fell head over heels for him.
Dong Lingyuan explained to her how hard his life was in the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom', with his elder brother, Dong Lingxin as the crown prince suppressing him and 'destroying his life'.
As soon as that woman heard this, she replied to Dong Lingyuan that she would personally ask her father to come to the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom' and kill his elder brother Dong Lingxin, before forcing the king to make Dong Lingyuan the new crown prince.''
Shun Long's eyes chilled as he seemed to have understood the gist of the matter, while Dong Lingyuan's face soon appeared in his mind.
Just because he wanted to become the crown prince, he had somehow caused the whole of 'Sky Fortune Kingdom' to fall into chaos.
However, this didn't explain Shun Fang's and Shun An's condition.
After all, although Shun Fang was a man who upheld justice, Shun Long knew that he wouldn't choose to fight someone like Wei Tai for no reason, especially since this had nothing to do with him.
Looking like he had understood what Shun Long was thinking, Shun Fang had a mocking smile on his face as he continued
''Although Dong Weifeng had announced that he would let his children fight for the throne by themselves and allow the most resourceful one to become the next king, in the end, he wasn't willing to see his eldest son fall into despair and die when he got the news of Dong Lingyuan getting a Heaven grade expert as his backer.
After all, the backer that Dong Lingyuan had found, had also exceeded the sphere of influence and control that Dong Weifeng had.
No matter what, it was impossible for him to control a Heaven grade cultivator who had no relations with the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom'!
A day after the news spread, both Dong Weifeng and the crown prince, Dong Lingxin came to our house and begged me to intervene and fight off Wei Tai.
After all, although Wei Tai was an early rank 2 Heaven grade expert, in the past few months, your father had already advanced to the peak of rank 1 in Heaven grade!
However, I refused without so much as even thinking about it.
What did it have to do with our family whether Dong Lingxin lives or dies, or whether Dong Lingyuan becomes the crown prince and the next king?
Should I risk my life, just because they personally beg me to fight? This isn't giving them face, this would be me becoming Dong Weifeng's personal lapdog every time someone that he couldn't handle appeared.
No matter what, I always do what I like, and no one can force me to do what I don't want to!
This is how I, Shun Fang live my life!
As for my relationship with Dong Weifeng, although it couldn't be considered a bad one, it wasn't to the level of me risking my life for him!''
Shun Long nodded his head, as Shun Fang seemed to have confirmed his guess.
Indeed, his father wouldn't risk his own and his mother's lives, just to fight for Dong Lingxin.
However, with a self-deprecating smile on his face, Shun Fang's eyes seemed to have been filled with anger and undisguised mockery as he continued
''Hehe, however, who would expect that Dong Weifeng would be such a poisonous snake?!
He helped his son, Dong Lingxin spread the rumors, that I am a powerful formation master who is extremely rich!
Of course, the reason that he spread this word, was to make Wei Tai take note of this issue and force him to come to the 'Blue Forest city' and fight with me.
Who would expect that Wei Tai would cause a whole war instead, just to help Dong Lingyuan.
He sent a huge army of soldiers from his own kingdoms to attack and conquer the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom', while he himself personally came to the 'Blue Forest city'.
The entire city turned into a battlefield, and soon, even the city lord's, Zhen Wang's army was destroyed and he himself was killed.
As for Wei Tai... hahaha!
That old shit came to our house and 'ordered' me to give up all my wealth if I wanted to live!
Of course, despite not wanting to fight him, I would never allow anyone to come to my house and trample over mine and your mother's head.
It doesn't matter whether that person is stronger than me or not, this is my own pride as a man and father, as well as a cultivator and a formation master.
Besides, our house was filled with more than just a few rank 3 bronze grade formations, so even with my cultivation being a minor realm lower than Wei Tai's, I was confident in fighting him off if we were inside our house.
Hehe, that old bastard indeed attacked us in the end, but not only was he unable to beat me, but he was the one to suffer instead.
Hehe, your old man was really strong kid!''
Shun Long didn't speak and just silently listened to Shun Fang's narration, who seemed to have wanted to say everything without holding back his emotions.
Shun Long felt a stifling feeling in his heart when he saw the tears in his father's eyes, but he still let him finish his explanation
''Despite beating that old bastard, I was unable to kill him or even cause him any serious injuries. I just forced him to retreat!
2 days later however, that old fart returned and attacked our house again, but this time, he wasn't alone, but he brought with him 2 peak rank 1 Heaven grade cultivators as well!
After 6 hours, in the end, they managed to break through the formations around the estate, and captured both me and your mother.''
When he mentioned Shun An's situation, Shun Fang's emotions seemed to have reached their peak of anger and helplessness.
With a mocking look in his eyes, he then continued
''Originally, Wei Tai wanted to kill both me and your mother, but after hearing that our son is a cultivator in the 'Floating Cloud sect', he chose to cripple our cultivation instead before he ordered Dong Lingyuan to imprison us in the dungeon of the palace!
No matter what he said, it was obvious that he was actually afraid of a huge sect, as a cultivator without any backing.
As soon as they threw us in the dungeon, they tortured us along with the rest of the prisoners inside.
As for Dong Lingxin and his mother, the previous queen, hehe, they had a fate even worse than us!
When the guards tried to break everyone's spirit in the dungeons, they revealed everything.
They were hanged n.a.k.e.d in front of the palace gates, for everyone who entered to see.''
As soon as he finished his words, Shun Fang turned his gaze towards Shun An, whose injuries were slowly healing while she was still unconscious.
And yet, an expression of pain appeared on his face when he looked at the wound in her abdomen, as well as his own.
Shun Long didn't say a word, but Little Black could clearly feel his anger and thirst for revenge.
The usually emotionless black dragon was also angry, but he didn't choose to speak either.
Under Shun Fang's stunned eyes, Shun Long first placed his hand on Shun An's back, injecting a gentle stream of qi inside her body that helped her wake up, before he raised his right hand in the air and slashed the void in front of him, opening a space tear more than 2m(6.6ft) long.
Without another word, Shun Long held both Shun Fang and Shun An, as he entered inside, once again appearing in the main hall of the palace!
