Su Lian"s eyes flickered when she heard her son"s words. Right, he was no longer just the eldest son in Wei Family. He was also Chen Zi Quan"s lackey and has to follow that prince most of the time.Wait…
"Help me out, Wei Cheng."
"Mother…"
"Do you want the Imperial Family to know that you learn technique from the Barbarian Kingdom?" After thinking of the blood line from before, Su Lian finally realized that it must be the technique from the Barbarian Kingdom. There shouldn"t be any other way for something to appear on one"s skin except them.
Even if she was an idiot, she still has that much knowledge.
Wei Cheng looked at his mother as his eyes flashed with a glint. "I didn"t expect that you"ll use something like this to threaten me, Mother."
"Do you think that your mother is stupid? I still have the basic knowledge that many other people didn"t know."
"Really?" Wei Cheng"s tone was skeptical as he walked closer towards his mother. There was a ruthless glint within his eyes. However, Su Lian didn"t realize the difference in the gaze in her son"s eyes when he looked at her.
Su Lian smirked. Considering the relations.h.i.+p between other kingdoms with the Barbarian Kingdom was anything but good, she thought that this would be good material to force her son to follow after her words.
Her scheme would have been worked only if she knew her son better.
But unfortunately, she didn"t.
Slas.h.!.+
In less than a moment, a knife appeared on Wei Cheng"s arm as he directed it to his own mother. A deep wound appeared on the woman"s shoulder, adding to the one that Ye Jiao made before.
Su Lian"s eyes widened in surprise. "What are…."
Slas.h.!.+
Before Su Lian could react, Wei Cheng already added another wound on the woman"s stomach. His eyes were cold as if he was not looking at his own mother but rather a stranger. There was no trace of warmth that he usually showed to his mother or sister but only cold and ruthless glint remained within his gaze.
"I always thought that you"re stupid enough to not realize that technique, Mother. If only you stay quiet, I"ll let you live. Unfortunately, you know my secret and wishes to use it," Wei Cheng"s tone was cold and indifferent. He looked at Su Lian without any trace of warmth in his eyes.
"Y-you"re my son…"
"Yes, I am," Wei Cheng acknowledged it. "I"m thankful that you give birth to me, but you"re nothing more than trouble, Mother. There"s nothing more you can do to us anymore. I"m sure that my little sister will be happy to hear your death too."
Su Lian"s pupil contracted when she heard Wei Cheng"s words.
No…
NO…
NO…!
NO!
That couldn"t be. Why did her own children wish for her death? What did she do wrong to them?
Wei Cheng looked at the remorse on his mother"s expression. He had made sure that no one was around before he came here because he was about to bid his farewell to her. It seemed that his choice was the correct one.
He wouldn"t want anyone to see that it was him who killed her.
"Good bye, Mother. Your role ends here."
"NO…."
Before Su Lian could finish her words, the knife on Wei Cheng"s hand had reached her throat. It created a perfect slit as blood burst out of the wound with nothing could stop it. Wei Cheng had purposely sliced the artery blood in his mother"s throat. Even if one tried to put pressure on top of the wound, it would not stop the flow of the blood at all.
Su Lian"s eyes were filled with disbelief as she looked at her own son. Her legs lost their strength and she dropped to the ground. Her heart was filled with grief as she watched her son looking back at her with a cold expression.
Never ever she thought that she would die in the hand of her own son.
She always thought that she would become someone great in Chen Kingdom as the wife of the great general. With her family pampering her and allowing her to come here, she had high hopes of herself. But nothing seemed to be going on her way.
Her husband was aiming for another woman and never truly paid any attention to her. He just fulfilled his duty but never more.
His eyes were locked on that sl*t. Even though she never returned his feelings back, he always wished for her and her alone.
Her children were very excellent. They were all very good with great talent and boundless futures. However, they were subjects of Chen Kingdom and have to follow the imperial family. Even if she wished them to not become their follower, they couldn"t listen to her request.
She had to accept that fact.
With her children so talented, she has always been proud of them. They were her flesh and blood!
But today, everything she felt proud of and happy all gone. Her own son that she felt proud of and cared for with all she got, told her that she was nothing but a trouble. Trouble?! How dare he!
She wished to strangle him and reprimanded him.
But Wei Cheng has grown up. He has started to bare his fangs and created his own decision for his life. Nothing she said would be able to affect him anymore. He had gone out of her control.
The one she wished to use to build her stable position instead stabbed her in the back. What an irony.
Filled with remorse, Su Lian breathed her last as she lost too much blood.
In front of her, Wei Cheng utilized his Eon Energy and destroyed the knife in his hand. He didn"t feel anything for killing his own mother. For him, she was nothing more than the person who brought him into this world. He felt thankful for that, but it was nothing more than that.
She only wanted his presence to gain favor from Wei Shang. He stayed with her because she"s his mother.
But now, he no longer has any use of her.
He no longer cared for her anymore.
She was the one who taught him that their relations.h.i.+p was nothing more than using each other. Now that she no longer has any use for him, there was no need for him to keep her alive anymore. He just followed after her words and didn"t try to think too much into it, for he was already tired with her.
It was as simple as that.
Not caring anymore, Wei Cheng walked away from the location. Sooner or later someone would find her and report to his father. At that time, he wouldn"t be in this residence anymore, so Wei Shang wouldn"t suspect him.
After all, she"s his mother.
Logically speaking, no children would try to kill their parents. Wei Shang also knew how much respect he usually showed when he was with his mother. It was nothing more than an act, but no one else knew. As long as he was not in this place, no one would suspect him.
Convenient, isn"t it?
In but a short moment, Wei Cheng has departed from Wei Family Residence and headed to the palace to do his work as one of Chen Zi Quan"s men again.
