A Dish Best Served Cold Chapter 1689

 Back then, Chu Yuan naturally remembered the family drama.


        In his life, Chu Yuan raised two sons.


        One was Chu Zhenghong and the other was Chu Zhengliang.


        Although Chu Zhengliang had become famous before, he was also the most pleasing to the family elders and had always been a role model for that generation of the Chu family.


        Chu Zhenghong, on the other hand, had been unruly and untamed since he was a child, and did not know how to cherish his great martial arts talent.


        But even so, it was his eldest son, Chu Zhenghong, whom Chu Yuan held in the highest regard and had the highest hopes for.


        At that time, Chu Yuan thought that he would let him play for a few years first, and then when he could no longer play, he would return to his family to train in martial arts and inherit the Chu family legacy.


        However, Chu Yuan never expected that when Chu Zhenghong returned from his prodigal son, he would bring him back a woman from the countryside.


        Not only that, he had even given birth to a child with this lowly and despicable person outside!


        He even asked Chu Yuan to give the country woman a name, and even asked the Chu family to acknowledge the fact that Chu Tianfan was the grandson of the Chu family.


        After learning all this, Chu Yuan was undoubtedly furious.


        His magnificent Chu family, the most prestigious family in the world, would not allow the future matriarch of the family to be a person of lowly status and poor origin.


        Moreover, what Chu Yuan could not accept was that the power of the Chu family would fall to an illegitimate son with a despicable bloodline.


        Of course, at first, Chu Yuan did not take things to the extreme and tolerated Ye Fan and his son to live in the Chu family, so that Chu Zhenghong could cultivate at ease.


        At the same time, Chu Yuan also arranged for the princesses of princes and nobles, or the young ladies of powerful families and martial arts families to come into contact with Chu Zhenghong.


        He did not believe that his son's flirtatious nature could not be compared to a woman from the countryside with so many beautiful women. Still couldn't capture his son's heart?


        At that time, Chu Yuan's plan was that the candidate for his daughter-in-law had to be the queen of a wealthy family.


        As for Ye Fan's mother, she could continue to exist in the capacity of his son's lover. As for Chu Tianfan, he would naturally be an illegitimate child, with no name.


        In order to get Chu Zhenghong to change his mind, Chu Yuan had also gone to great lengths.


        He even brought the eldest young lady of the Tang family, one of the three families of the Chu Clan, who was also Tang Yun's sister, to the Chu Clan to cultivate with Chu Zhenghong and spend time together.


        The result was naturally in vain.


        It was as if Chu Zhenghong had been charmed by Ye Fan's mother and daughter, and he did not care about the beauty of any of them.


        On the contrary, Tang Rui, Tang Yun's sister, fell hopelessly in love with Chu Zhenghong.


        But a falling flower has an intention, but a flowing water has no love.


        Tang Rui's true feelings were only rewarded with a sentence from Chu Zhenghong, who only treated you as a sister.


        He also told her that he had a family, a loving wife and a son.


        The former prodigal son had already found a home.


        The kite that once fluttered in the sky had also handed over its strings to a woman called Ye Ximei.


        That day, Miss Tang Rui of the Tang family had a white head overnight. And after that, her whereabouts were unknown and there was no trace of her again.


        All of Chu Yuan's plans had undoubtedly failed completely, but instead, he also invariably let hurt the Tang family's Missy.


        This incident almost caused the Tang and Chu families to turn against each other, and the Tang family's old man surrounded the Chu family with all the Tang family's strongest men, asking for an explanation from Master Chu.


        It was also because of this incident that the Chu Clan's civil unrest was later sown.


        Although Chu Yuan was a powerful man, he had a weakness in his heart and knew that he was in the wrong, so he pacified the Tang family and launched a hard search for Tang Rui.


        Afterwards, Chu Yuan allowed Tang Yun to become the head of the Chu Clan, perhaps because of his guilt towards her sister and the Tang family.


        After all, he had caused all of Tang Rui's tragedies back then.


        He had deliberately concealed the fact that Chu Zhenghong already had a family, and he had deliberately created opportunities for the two of them to have ambiguous contact, which ultimately led to Tang Rui's tragedy.


        After this incident, Chu Yuan realised that his bastard son was truly enchanted by that mother and daughter.


        So, before the end of his days, Chu Yuan decided to cut the Gordian knot quickly.


        He directly swept Chu Tianfan's mother and daughter son out of the house and expelled them from the Chu family.


        At the same time, in front of Chu Zhenghong, he also gave a deadly order to the two old men of Xuan Hei: "In the future, whenever Chu Zhenghong has any more contact with this mother and son, you two can have the right to kill them on the spot, so as to eliminate future problems forever!"


        With this order, Chu Yuan had undoubtedly cut off all thoughts of Chu Zhenghong.


        He was born and raised in the Chu family, so he naturally knew the fear of the two old men of Xuan Hei.


        Unless he could outwit these two old men, any contact or closeness he had to Ye Fan and his mother and son would be a butcher's knife to cut off the lives of both Ye Fan and his mother and son.


        At this point, this farce was considered to have come to a complete end.


        And after that, Chu Yuan entered the forbidden place of the Chu family with confidence.


        At that time, Chu Yuan felt that from then on, their Chu Family would probably never hear any more about this illegitimate son.


        After all, at the time when Chu Tianfan's mother and son were expelled from the Chu Family, the heights that both sides were at were already two worlds apart.


        One was noble and majestic, like clouds in the sky.


        The other was humble and despicable, like mud on the ground!


        However, Chu Yuan had never imagined that on the day he left the gate, he would see this country outcast again, Chu Tianfan!


        Thirteen years had passed, and that farce from back then was still going on.


        "The first time I saw you guys back then, I really should have killed you mother and son."


        "But if I hadn't been merciful back then, that foolish girl Xiao Rui wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable state. The Tang family and my Chu family would not have turned against each other back then."


        "My Chu Clan, too, would not have had the civil strife that followed."


        "As for my son, Zheng Hong, he has long been married to the Tang family, and is at the top of the pile of power!"


        "Even today, my Chu family would not have been destroyed to this extent by you!"


        Looking at Chu Tianfan, and remembering everything that had happened back then.


        Chu Yuan really regretted it, and the more he thought about it, the more he regretted it.


        Of course, what he regretted was not expelling Chu Tianfan and driving away Ye Fan's mother and son back then.


        What he later regretted was not killing them, mother and son, as early as possible.


        If he had killed the mother and son on the first day Chu Zhenghong brought them here, where would there have been so much later, and naturally, even less would he have brought such misfortune to the Chu Family more than ten years later.


        "Haha~"


        "Chu Yuan, you are right."


        "Your greatest mistake in this life was not killing my mother back then, not killing me, Chu Tianfan!"


        "Don't worry, in gratitude to you, I will leave your Chu family's bodies intact."


        After many years, the two men, master and grandson, reunited once again.


        Between the two, there was not the slightest trace of blood kinship.


        What was there was only the redness of enemies meeting each other.


        When outsiders such as the Sword Saint saw this scene, they could not help but sigh with emotion.


        What kind of hatred and spacing had caused these two men to become enemies of life and death!


        Faced with what Chu Tianfan said, Chu Yuan shook his head and said expressionlessly, "Before I came out of seclusion, when you said that, perhaps Zhengliang and the others would really fear you."


        "But now, to say that in front of me, don't you think that you're out of your depth?"


        "What you should consider now is not whether you should leave my Chu family's body intact or not."


        "What you should be considering is whether you, yourself, will die without a body."


        In the light tone, one could not hear the slightest emotion.


        However, such calm words fell on the ears of the crowd, but they contained an overwhelming pressure and dominance.


        The hearts of Gaia and the others were undoubtedly clenched at this point.


        In the end, Owen and the others, could not even help but come forward and whispered to each other in Ye Fan's ears, "Dragon Master, the situation is somewhat unpleasant."


        "Chu Yuan is still alive."


        "I think, why don't we retreat?"


        "We still have to think long and hard about dealing with this old demon."


        "Don't be impulsive!"
