"I don't know who your good-for-nothing father and who gave birth to this good-for-nothing bastard like you. The engagement was broken off today, and you are still in the mood to receive the elixir!"

The cold voice, extremely arrogant, resounded Pill Pharmacy.

Ted Duffus straightened his body and clenched his fists slightly, but his eyes were calm. He looked at the several Du family deacons and the elders of the Juzhong Pill Pharmacy sitting on the high platform, and said: "As a descendant of the Du family, according to the clan rules, I have You can receive a 'Qi Nourishing Pill' every three months!"

"If it weren't for your surname being Du, you wouldn't have the qualifications to have your engagement annulled. It's embarrassing. Fortunately, Chenyang saved the face for our Du family. Otherwise, the Du family's face would have been completely embarrassed by you. !”

The elder of the Pill Pharmacy looked directly at Ted Duffus, with a cold tone and cold eyes, as if he was looking at a wild dog or an ant.

The Du family deacon who was responsible for distributing the elixir threw the elixir directly on the ground.

This is a Qi-nourishing pill. Young disciples of the Du family under the age of eighteen can receive one every three months for cultivation.

Such a voice fell in Ted Duffus's ears, and every word was like a needle pricking his heart, but he had long been used to it.

Picking up the Qi-nourishing pill on the ground and looking around at the figures in the Pill Pharmacy, Ted Duffus glanced at these so-called tribesmen. The fist holding the Qi-nourishing pill slowly clenched hard, and his nails dug into the palm of his hand, spilling traces of blood.

Knowing that he was a time traveler since he was born, Ted Duffus originally thought that he would wake up to dominate the world and lie drunk in the lap of a beautiful woman.

But the reality is cruel.

Born in a cultivating family like the Du family, his father's cultivation was ruined by his enemies, his legs were beaten and disabled, and his martial arts talent was extremely poor. Ted Duffus was known throughout the city as a good-for-nothing since he was a child.

The day when the Du family's children receive the 'Qi Nourishing Pill' every three months is also the day when Ted Duffus will be humiliated.

"I've already taken the Qi Nourishing Pill, why don't you get out!"

"The Du family has been raising you father and son all these years. It's because your grandfather worked hard for the family!"

These Du family members in the Pill Pharmacy are aloof, with cold expressions and harsh voices.

"Hard work, is that all my grandfather has to do?"

Ted Duffus's clenched fists slowly relaxed at this moment, and there was a bit of sadness in his eyes with a slightly wry smile on his face.

Grandpa is the patriarch of the Du family.

But grandpa has disappeared for ten years. Some people in the Du family are worried that their position is unstable, and they want to stabilize their position. They have always wanted to drive out their own father and son.

The Qi-nourishing pills I deserve every three months are like charity from them.

"Get out of here now, you are such a shameful piece of trash and will only bring shame to the Du family!"

The elder of the Pill Pharmacy was already impatient and scolded.

"If my grandfather were still here, would you dare to do this to our father and son?"

Ted Duffus thin body was tall and straight. His slightly messy hair on his forehead covered some of the corners of his eyes. His eyes were deep and bright. He glanced at the people in the Pill Pharmacy, then turned and left.

The faces of the figures turned blue and their expressions were gloomy and ugly.

If Ted Duffus's grandfather is still here, then...

"Wait a minute, little loser!"

The elder of the Pill Pharmacy still had cold eyes and called out to Ted Duffus, saying: "Although you are a loser, you still receive the 'Qi Nourishing Pill' every three months. After seven days, after the clan competition is over, all the Du family children of the appropriate age will We’re going to Valley of Death to experience it, and since your surname is Du, you have to go too!”

"knew!"

After a few breaths, Ted Duffus squeezed out three words from his throat.

He knew that someone in the clan was deliberately making things difficult for him.

Valley of Death is not something that ordinary people can go to, as it can be very dangerous.

"snort!"

The elder of the Pill Pharmacy sneered, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"Go away, the Du family has done their best to take care of you, a useless pair of father and son, over the years. You'd better go out less these days. You're not afraid of being embarrassed, and the Du family also wants to lose face!"

The elder of the Pill Pharmacy waved his hand and ignored Ted Duffus.

"Du family, hehe..."

Ted Duffus smiled faintly, as if showing a bit of sadness and anger, but also seemed to be mocking himself, and then left, never looking back.

Du family.

In the entire Zhongzhou, the Du family is nothing. But in this Deserted City, there is one of the four famous martial arts families.

There are many strong people in the Du family, and the total number of descendants of the main family and collateral families is no less than tens of thousands.

Ted Duffus's identity should have been that of the third generation of the Du family with upright roots.

However, the old man has disappeared, his father Daniel Duffus has been deposed by his enemies, Ted Duffus talent has not been good these years, and there are people who have been targeting him, so his status in the Du family is not even as good as that of a servant.

"You loser, your engagement was annulled today, yet you still have the nerve to come and receive the elixir."

"The Du family has been completely disgraced!"

When Ted Duffus walked out of the Pill Pharmacy, he encountered many children of the same age from the Du family, many of whom laughed and ridiculed them.

Ted Duffus remained unmoved by the ridicule surrounding him, but his expression became calmer.

In his previous life , Ted Duffus was already well aware of the truth that the world is in a fickle state.

What's more, in this world where martial arts are prosperous and strength is respected.

"What's the use of Qi-nourishing pills for a loser!"

An uncertain voice came from not far away, and a half-grown young man with good temperament walked over surrounded by several young men and women of the same age.

This half-grown young man is not that old, he looks about seventeen or eighteen years old, and he has a handsome face.

Looking at Ted Duffus, the half-grown young man's expression of ridicule and sarcasm was not concealed, and he said: "Old rules, should we beat you up, or you should obediently hand over the Qi Nourishing Pill!"

"This loser is going to get beaten again!"

A lot of people watching the excitement immediately gathered around.

It seems that everyone has become accustomed to this kind of thing.

No one sympathized with Ted Duffus, but happily watched the excitement.

Ted Duffus knew the half-grown young man in front of him, Ray Duffus. He could be considered his cousin, and he had been stealing his pills a lot over the years.

"Who's going to grab it!"

With a glance, Ted Duffus has become accustomed to it over the years. Although he has been robbed countless times, he has occasionally protected some.

Looking at Ted Duffus, several teenagers also felt an inexplicable invisible pressure.

Although Ted Duffus is not their opponent.

But every time Ted Duffus would catch one and bite him to death, his ferocity also made them wary.

However, over the years, their cultivation has become higher and higher.

Ted Duffus, however, has been stagnant and is still the same loser.

This made them less afraid.

"Brother Chenyang and Miss Debby Yare are here!"

At this time, there was a sudden commotion from the crowd.

Someone was coming, a young man and woman came slowly.

The young man looks about eighteen or nineteen years old, wearing a rich and brocade robe. Under his eyebrows that are neither thick nor light, his narrow eyes are like gurgling spring water, and the corners of his mouth are slightly raised, as if there is a dazzling smile surging at any time.

It's just that the light in the young man's eyes inadvertently revealed a cold color.

But there is no doubt that this young man has an unworldly temperament, and he has an unworldly temperament. At a glance, you can tell that he is not a thing in the pond, but a dragon and a phoenix among people!

The woman seems to be slightly younger, about seventeen or eighteen years old, but she is already slim and slim. She is wearing a long skirt that outlines her alluring figure. Her face is as delicate as jade, and she seems to have no flaws. She is also somewhat precocious and flamboyant. A kind of nobility and elegance, with a slightly youthful coquettishness that makes any man unable to help but take a few more glances.

"I've met Brother Chenyang and Miss Debby."

"No, I must have met Sister-in-law Debby!"

Seeing this man and woman, the boys and girls of the Du family around them immediately saluted in awe.

All the young children of the Du family couldn't help but fall on Debby Yare's exquisite and undulating figure.

The young men's eyes were enthusiastic, and the girls also cast envious eyes.

In the entire Deserted City, Debby Yare is recognized as the number one beauty, the goddess in the hearts of countless boys, and the object of admiration for countless young talents.

But this kind of aloof goddess is usually indifferent to others. Even to some children of other aristocratic families in the Deserted City, she just nods indifferently, showing her arrogance.

But everyone in Deserted City knew that such a high-ranking goddess, the eldest lady of the Yang family, one of the four major martial arts families, was once Ted Duffus's fiancée.

Over the years, this matter has made countless young talents in Deserted City beat their chests and feel heartbroken!

But today the entire Du family and even the entire Deserted City knew about a big event.

The Yang family came to the Du family to break off the engagement and terminated the engagement between Debby Yare and Ted Duffus.

This matter did not go through Ted Duffus's hands at all, and no one even asked Ted Duffus for his opinion.

Everything has been arranged.

But at the same time, Debby Yare entered into a marriage contract with Samuel Duffus of the Du family.

Ted Duffus also met Debby Yare.

I have to say that Debby Yare does look good, and she has grown better and better over the years. She is bigger where she should be, thin where she should be, and perky where she should be.

But Ted Duffus was not too moved.

In the world of my previous life, the so-called feelings were sometimes useless even if they were cooked from raw rice to porridge.

What's more, this is just a childhood playmate, a baby kiss that has been arranged since childhood.

And from the very beginning, considering Ted Duffus two generations of human state of mind, a baby kiss was nothing.

"Brother Chenyang, Miss Debby."

Seeing Samuel Duffus and Debby Yare, Ray Duffus face was suddenly filled with smiles.

Although he was also a disciple of the Du family, in front of Samuel Duffus, he knew that he could not compare with him.

Both Samuel Duffus and Debby Yare just nodded symbolically to Ray Duffus without any unnecessary expressions.

"Whether I meet you or not, I'd like to tell you by the way, the previous engagement between you and me was still too young to count, so let's leave it at that."

Debby Yare looked at Ted Duffus, who was young but had a beautiful face. The condescending eyes in his eyes showed a bit of indifference and aloofness, but also a bit childish.

There were fluctuations in the depths of Ted Duffus eyes, and then he regained his composure. There was a hint of maturity on his face that was somewhat inconsistent with his age, and he said: "This world also pays attention to the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers. The marriage contract was between your grandfather and you. It was decided by my grandfather, and it seems a little insufficient just for you to say it has been lifted."
