Returning from cultivating immortality, the top scorer in the college entrance examination goes bers

Chapter 4: Did My Mother Die Tragically in the Street Because of Me?

The terrifying pressure surging around him vanished instantly.

Even the slightest hint of chilling murderous intent was completely eliminated.

Lu Jingchen turned around and looked at Lu Qingyuan, who was slumped on the ground.

The look in her eyes, which had been so cold it could freeze you to the bone, instantly softened completely.

"Those two bastards have gone to the underworld where they belong."

"No one will dare to bully you anymore."

He spoke very softly, afraid of startling the little girl in front of him.

As he spoke, he took half a step forward and reached out to help her up.

"Qingyuan, don't be afraid, your brother is here."

"By the way, those two bastards just now, what did they say about making you sign some kind of letter of understanding?"

"What exactly happened?"

As soon as the words "letter of understanding" were uttered, Lu Qingyuan reacted as if a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

It exploded instantly.

With her rabbit-like eyes red, she suddenly raised her hand and forcefully pushed away Lu Jingchen's outstretched hand.

"Don't touch me!"

Her voice was hysterical, choked with sobs, and filled with barely concealed hatred.

Lu Jingchen was pushed back half a step, and his whole body froze.

His hand froze in mid-air, unsure whether to move forward or backward, looking as helpless as a child who had done something wrong.

He has lived for nearly three thousand years, survived heavenly tribulations, and slew the Demon Lord. What storms haven't he weathered?

He was completely helpless when it came to his younger sister, who was crying uncontrollably.

"Who do you think you are, older brother?!"

Lu Qingyuan's tears fell like beads from a broken string.

"If it weren't for you! How could my mom have gotten into a car accident! How could she have died!"

"What are you doing back here now! Do you want to see how miserable my daughter and I are?"

These words were like a thunderbolt from the heavens, chilled to the bone.

It struck Lu Jingchen hard on the top of his head.

He froze on the spot, his mind going blank.

The CPU burned out completely, and it could barely stand up.

"What...what did you say?"

His voice was trembling so badly that even his lips were shaking.

"Mom was in a car accident...and she died?"

Lu Qingyuan squatted on the ground, clutching her head tightly with both hands.

She cried her heart out, her whole body trembling.

"Waaaaah... Mom... My mom..."

The cries echoed through the empty alley, making one's heart clench.

Lu Jingchen's face instantly lost all color, turning as white as paper.

He staggered back several steps, his back slamming hard against the cold wall.

She barely managed to keep her body from collapsing.

"Qingyuan... what exactly happened?"

"Explain yourself to me, what exactly happened?"

His voice trembled violently, and even his eyes were red.

Lu Qingyuan suddenly raised her head, her small face covered in tears.

Her eyes were filled with unyielding resentment and hatred as she stared intently at him.

"You want to know? Fine! I'll tell you now!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the scene instantly switched to a black-and-white flashback.

In the dead of night, amidst a torrential downpour, there wasn't a soul on the street.

Clutching Lu Jingchen's photo tightly in her hand, the mother frantically tried to stop cars on the street.

She would ask everyone she met if they had seen her son.

The rain soaked her to the bone, her hair clung to her face, and she looked utterly haggard.

A dazzling sports car, roaring loudly, hurtled towards us like a madman.

With a muffled thud, the mother collapsed into a pool of blood.

The photo in his hand was wrinkled from being soaked in the rain, but he still clutched it tightly.

The flashback ended, leaving only Lu Qingyuan's mournful sobs in the alley.

"Three years ago! You disappeared without a word!"

"They've vanished without a trace, neither alive nor dead!"

"My mom carries your photo around every day, asking about you everywhere she goes! She asks everyone she meets for news about you!"

"It was raining heavily the night before last, and she went out to look for you again! That bastard was driving drunk and ran her over, killing her instantly!"

She pointed at Lu Jingchen, her finger trembling like a leaf.

"It's all because of you!"

"If it weren't for finding you, my mother wouldn't have died!"

"You killed her! It was you!"

Lu Jingchen was struck dumb, his knees buckled, and he almost collapsed to the ground.

He gritted his teeth and barely managed to keep himself upright.

My mind was replaying what my sister had just said.

I'm the one who killed Mom.

it's me.

If I hadn't suddenly disappeared, Mom wouldn't have gone out looking for me every day.

Then nothing will happen.

He cultivated immortality for three thousand years, slaying demons and monsters, his Dao heart as firm as a rock.

At this moment, it shattered into pieces.

He clutched his head tightly with both hands, his fingers gripping his hair so hard that his knuckles turned white.

I was overwhelmed by self-blame, and even breathing hurt.

"Now do you think you're still worthy of being my brother?"

Lu Qingyuan looked at his distraught appearance and sneered.

But the tears in her eyes fell even more fiercely.

She squatted on the ground, continuing to cry, her sobs as sharp and piercing as knives, cutting through the alley.

Looking at his sister who was crying uncontrollably, Lu Jingchen felt as if his heart was being squeezed tightly by a hand.

He was in so much pain he could hardly breathe, yet he couldn't utter a single word.

He has no right to defend himself.

They had no face to defend themselves.

All of this was indeed caused by him.

He took a deep breath, not knowing how much time had passed.

When she looked up again, the pain and self-blame in her eyes had been suppressed.

All that remained was an unwavering resolve tempered by ice, and an overwhelming killing intent that could not be concealed.

I don't expect you to forgive me.

His voice was deep, each word spoken with conviction.

"But I absolutely will not allow anyone to bully you or harm my mother and get away with it."

He crouched down and looked at Lu Qingyuan, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying.

The unwavering determination in his eyes left no room for doubt.

"Even if the King of Heaven himself came, he wouldn't dare touch my family."

"I will make him pay the worst price."

I assure you.

Lu Qingyuan raised her hand and fiercely wiped away the tears on her face.

Looking at his serious expression, a hint of undisguised mockery flashed in his eyes.

"Wow, you're so amazing, even the Heavenly King himself is afraid of you."

"Then why don't you go and fight that bastard who caused the accident to the death?"

"Anyone can talk big like that."

Without a second thought, Lu Jingchen immediately agreed.

"it is good."

Decisive and efficient, without the slightest hesitation.

He stood up abruptly, instantly radiating a suffocating sense of oppression.

The temperature in the entire alley instantly dropped to freezing point.

The murderous intent in his eyes was so intense it was almost overflowing.

"What's that bastard's name?"

Do you know where he is? Do you have a picture of him?

Lu Qingyuan was completely stunned.

She was just angry and said it in the heat of the moment.

To everyone's surprise, Lu Jingchen agreed without even thinking about it.

She opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word for a long time.

After several seconds, she gritted her teeth and spat out a name.

"His name is Zhao Tianyu!"

"I don't have the photo, but he's the vice general manager of Dingsheng Group!"

"A simple online search will reveal tons of information about him!"

"Those two bastards who forced me to sign the letter of understanding, they were sent by him!"

"He's the one who ran over and killed my mother! And he wants me to sign a letter of forgiveness to get away with it!"

Lu Jingchen nodded, his eyes still brimming with tears that hadn't yet fallen.

His face was completely expressionless, eerily calm.

"Qingyuan, I have something to take care of first."

"I'll come back to you after I've finished taking care of things."

After saying that, he turned and left.

His steps were steady and resolute, with no intention of looking back.

"Where are you going?"

Lu Qingyuan looked at his back and subconsciously called out.

Lu Jingchen didn't stop walking, nor did he turn his head.

The voice was as cold as ice, drifting over from the front.

"Go and make the murderer pay with his life."

Looking at his back, which was shrouded in murderous aura, Lu Qingyuan suddenly felt a strange sense of panic.

She scrambled to her feet, chased after him for a few steps, and shouted at the top of her lungs.

"Lu Jingchen! You've gone mad!"

"I was just saying that in anger! Don't do anything rash!"

"Are you really going to kill someone?!"

Lu Jingchen's steps finally paused.

He still didn't turn around, his back to her, and his voice came steadily.

"Three days."

"You will hear of his death in three days."

As soon as he finished speaking, he flashed away.

The person simply vanished into thin air at the end of the alley.

It left not a trace, as if it had never existed.

Lu Qingyuan's eyes widened instantly, and she was completely dumbfounded.

She chased after him frantically for a few steps until she reached the alley entrance.

Shouting at the top of his lungs.

"Lu Jingchen! Lu Jingchen, come back!"

"Did you hear me! Don't do anything stupid!"

The alley was deserted.

Only the wind rustling through the scraps of paper on the ground made a rustling sound.

There wasn't a single person in sight.

Lu Qingyuan stood at the empty alley entrance, looking at the deserted street.

Completely stunned, I stood there helplessly.

Tears fell again, and my heart was filled with panic and confusion.
