Chapter 226
“Claiming to be a young master of the Li Family?” Upon hearing the butler’s words, Li Zhiyong exchanged a glance with Jiang Che. Without thinking, he knew the butler was referring to Li Tian.
He didn’t expect Li Tian to arrive so quickly. He hadn’t even finished his meal, and this guy had already shown up.
“You all seem to be having quite a time. Getting drunk in broad daylight is not good.” Li Tian walked in from the entrance, looking around at everyone present with a mocking smile on his face.
Attracted by Li Tian’s voice, everyone turned their curious gazes towards him. When Li Tian left the Li Family, he was only fourteen years old. Six years had passed, and they couldn’t recognize this former young master of the Li Family.
“Who are you, and what are you doing at my Li Family?” A young man in his early twenties stood up from his chair, looking at Li Tian with displeasure.
He was in the middle of enjoying his drink when he was interrupted, naturally making him very unhappy.
“I am Li Tian! A young master of the Li Family. Why do you think I’m back?” Li Tian coldly glanced at the young man. He vaguely remembered this guy as one of his cousins, with whom he used to play when they were kids.
“Li Tian?” Hearing Li Tian’s words, the young man was stunned and then bewildered.
The name sounded somewhat familiar. Wasn’t this the useless guy who was expelled from the Li Family six years ago? Why was he back now?
“You are Li Tian? Why did you come back? How do you still have the face to return? Do you think the trouble your father caused for the Li Family wasn’t enough?” An elderly man with a white beard suddenly stood up from his seat, his face darkened as he glared at Li Tian.
Six years ago, after a discussion among the Li Family members, Li Tian was directly expelled from the family.
For six years, there had been no news of Li Tian. The old man thought he had died outside, but now he had unexpectedly returned.
Li Tian ignored the old man and looked at Li Zhiyong, who was sitting in the main seat.
“Uncle, it seems you’ve been living quite comfortably these years, even becoming the head of the family.” Li Tian spoke full of sarcasm, looking very displeased.
Back then, his father wouldn’t have been so easily expelled from the Li Family if it weren’t for his dear uncle. Li Zhiyong was one of the most vocal opponents among the Li Family members at that time.
“Is this how you speak to your uncle?” Li Zhiyong frowned, looking up at Li Tian.
He had no regrets about what he did back then. Li Chenzhou was not of the same bloodline as him, just a cousin. Moreover, Li Chenzhou had caused such a huge trouble. For the sake of the Li Family’s interests, he had to hand Li Chenzhou over.
Otherwise, the Li Family would face endless revenge from Li Chenzhou’s enemies!
Although Li Chenzhou’s enemy was far away in Modu, if they wanted revenge, the Li Family, a small second-rate family, couldn’t withstand it.
“If it weren’t for you, my father wouldn’t have died such a tragic death…” Li Tian looked at Li Zhiyong with bloodshot eyes, filled with immense killing intent.
Although he knew that the Li Family’s abandonment of his father was out of necessity, he couldn’t get over it in his heart.
“Your father provoked someone he shouldn’t have. What does that have to do with me?” Li Zhiyong retorted unhappily. Back then, Li Chenzhou was purely asking for trouble.
He had just casually supported the decision during the Li Family’s discussion, yet this guy had held a grudge for six years?
Originally, he was looking forward to Li Tian’s return to the Li Family, especially since Jiang Che had mentioned that Li Tian had some fortuitous encounters over the years. He was no longer an ordinary person and could be a great help to the Li Family if he returned.
But now it seemed he was overthinking. With Li Tian’s hostile attitude towards him, he probably wouldn’t follow his orders no matter what.
“So the Li Family just abandoned my father? How utterly ridiculous! Is this what you call the demeanor of a noble family?” Li Tian shouted at Li Zhiyong, his face turning red with anger.
“You…” Li Zhiyong was also furious at Li Tian’s words, his hand shaking as he pointed at him.
Jiang Che hadn’t left yet, and Li Tian was making a scene, clearly making the Li Family a laughingstock in front of him.
“Shut up!”
“What, getting angry out of shame?” Li Tian looked at Li Zhiyong disdainfully, his eyes full of mockery.
In his eyes, Li Zhiyong was just feeling guilty because of what he said.
“System, check Li Tian’s attribute panel.” Jiang Che, who was sitting aside, enjoying the quarrel, communicated with the system in his mind.
Main Character: Li Tian
Cultivation: Early Unity of man and Heaven Stage
Luck: 20000
Golden Finger: [Battle Heaven Art]
Skills: Advanced Combat Techniques, Advanced Culinary Skills…
He actually has twenty thousand luck?
Looking at Li Tian’s attribute panel listed by the system, Jiang Che squinted slightly. He didn’t expect this guy to have such high luck. This was no ordinary protagonist; he was his own thriving leek!
As long as he disrupted this guy’s opportunities and prevented him from becoming the head of the Li Family, he could significantly reduce Li Tian’s luck.
After all, “The Strongest Abandoned Young Master” was about a boy expelled from his family who returned and became the head of the family, leading them to the peak.
Thinking of this, Jiang Che put on an impatient look, glanced at Li Zhiyong, and asked with a frown.
“Master Li, aren’t you drinking? Why are you arguing with a junior here? Can’t this be discussed later?”
“Young Master Jiang is right. I toast to you…” Seeing Jiang Che’s impatient look, Li Zhiyong was startled and stopped arguing with Li Tian.
He quickly sat back in his seat and toasted Jiang Che again, not realizing Jiang Che’s impatience was an act.
He thought Jiang Che was genuinely displeased by Li Tian’s sudden appearance, and if Jiang Che blamed him for it, it would be a great loss.
Unconsciously, Li Zhiyong also developed a considerable resentment towards his nephew, whom he had just reunited with today.
