Chapter 454 - 454 367 Father is Truly a Divine Being (5k)

Chapter 454: Chapter 367 Father is Truly a Divine Being! (5k) Chapter 454: Chapter 367 Father is Truly a Divine Being! (5k) Ouyang Zhi yelling was his business; Chen Yuan certainly was not going to accept this cheap son.

Never mind that Ouyang Zhi was older than him, the conflicts between them were not small either. He had stolen his opportunity and married his mother. Chen Yuan didn’t think he didn’t care about it at all.

For now, it was merely out of fear of his strength.

As for Ouyang Zhi’s loyalty to him, it still needed to be proven over time.

After all, Chen Yuan was not his biological father.

He was merely akin to a stepfather.

Have you not seen the affair of Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo?

Therefore, Chen Yuan was not easily going to trust him. The God Control Gu still needed to be placed.

This Gu Worm was a secret transmission from Miao Region, extremely rare. Not only could it control life and death, but it could also sense some emotions of the child Gu through the mother Gu, in case the other party had any mal intentions.

If that were the case, he would make his move without the slightest hesitation.

In fact, Chen Yuan had considered this. After being brainwashed by Lady Xu, Ouyang Zhi’s hatred towards Chen Yuan had mostly disappeared.

Well…

To be precise, it was deeply suppressed.

As long as Chen Yuan continued to be strong, controlling his life, he would not dare have the slightest intention to rebel.

Ouyang Zhi was not a fool; on the contrary, he was quite smart.

If Lady Xu could see that Chen Yuan had a promising future, how could he not see it?

Having lost the Divine Weapon, he no longer had the potential to stand firm in Jianghu. He must find someone to rely on, and Chen Yuan was an excellent choice for him.

Ouyang Zhi slightly bowed, very humbly, his face bearing some shy smiles.

As if he was indeed facing his biological father.

But in reality, that was not the case.

Let alone Chen Yuan, this stepfather, even his own mother was merely a stepmother…

“Did you break this door?”

Chen Yuan’s tone changed, his calm eyes sweeping aside.

Lady Xu hesitated, wanted to come out and defend herself, but under Chen Yuan’s calm gaze, she stopped again and turned to look at Ouyang Zhi.

She understood that this was Chen Yuan’s test for Ouyang Zhi.

“Responding to father, indeed it was the child who broke it.”

Ouyang Zhi did not conceal it, admitting openly.

“Oh?”

“Not hiding from father, at the beginning, the child heard of mother being here and was greatly furious. He thought that it was father’s oppression over mother that made him unable to bear it and thus committed this transgression. But after coming here, mother, with emotions and reasoning, told the child she truly had feelings for father. The child pondered—since mother raised me, she also deserves her own happiness now.

Only hoping father could treat mother kindly….”

Chen Yuan looked at Ouyang Zhi with sharp eyes. He had to admit, his sincerity lessened some of Chen Yuan’s murderous intent. If he had tried to guise it,

Chen Yuan would definitely not have allowed him to stay.

Ouyang Zhi kneeled on the ground and continued, “No matter what, it was the child’s rashness, please punish me, father.”

“Why must you be so servile, Ouyang? Calling me father one after another, don’t you find it uncomfortable?”

“The child dares not.”

“Hum….. No need for this, just obediently follow my orders, and Chen will not make a move against you. As for calling me father, neither you nor I feels comfortable with it. Henceforth, continue to address me as Brother Chen, and let us… each speak for himself, without involving your mother’s reasons.”

Keeping such a grown son certainly doesn’t feel right.

He didn’t wish to delight in being a father either.

“The child obeys the command.”

No matter what Chen Yuan said, Ouyang Zhi still retained an extremely low posture, seemingly just wanting to fix the formalities, and not merely for himself.

It also pertained to his mother.

If the titles were clarified, Chen Yuan would naturally also provide Lady Xu a status.

He was very filial—this was no empty talk.

“Qing Envoy, let Zhi rise.” Lady Xu gracefully moved to Chen Yuan’s side, showing some deference as a married woman.

“Brother Ouyang, rise.”

“Obeying the command.”

Ouyang Zhi rose with a smile on his face.

“Where is the God Control Gu?” Chen Yuan looked towards Lady Xu.

“It’s already prepared,” Lady Xu came to the window and placed a palm-sized white Jade Box in Chen Yuan’s hand.

‘Clack.’

The Jade Box was flipped open by one of Chen Yuan’s hands, inside it quietly lay three Gu Worms.

One large and two small, the large one about the size of a fingernail, blood-colored, was the God Control mother Gu, and the two sleeping next to it were the God Control child Gus.

With a flick of his fingertip, Chen Yuan forced out a drop of Essence Blood onto the mother Gu.

Blood light blossomed, and the mother Gu trembled slightly.

In the depths of his being, Chen Yuan felt an inexplicable connection, as if he could easily control this Gu.

Turning his head, Chen Yuan looked at Lady Xu and Ouyang Zhi, his expression serious:

“Both of you understand the grievances between us. If you want to live, you must first consume this Gu. Only by being able to control your lives, can Chen not fear betrayal.”

He did not disguise his words, speaking openly, his tone slightly cold.

Lady Xu stared blankly at Chen Yuan for a moment, letting out a sigh inside; it indeed seemed a bit heartless, showing no signs of last night’s intimacy.

But she had no complaint, taking the Gu was her own suggestion after all.

She was very clear, without some means to keep them in check, Chen Yuan could never trust them, and they would surely not live long.

Then she went forward, looking at the God Control Gu in hand, she opened her forearm skin with Gang Qi, letting a drop of Essence Blood fall onto the Gu. The child Gu, awakened, quickly burrowed into her forearm following her guidance.
