Chapter 919: Chapter 922: Tang Yucheng’s Guilt

The situation had become very clear. Zhuge Qingfeng and others had somehow poisoned Old Master Tang and then framed Jiang Chen, using him to lure away Tang Family’s Semi-Venerable, Tang Zhennan.

Then, they wanted to take control of the Tang Family!

”You planted a Soul Devour in Yucheng?!”

Suddenly, Tang Jiawei’s complexion changed and he shouted angrily.

”Him? Family Head, we haven’t planted a Soul Devour in the eldest young master of the Tang Family; he contacted us on his own initiative!”

Zhuge Jun Cheng glanced disdainfully at Tang Yucheng: ”Family Head, you really don’t understand your Tang Family’s eldest young master!”

The faces of the Tang Family members changed in unison, glaring at Tang Yucheng with fury.

With a calm face, Tang Yucheng scanned the Tang family members and finally set his gaze on Tang Jiawei: ”I want to know, how did you find out it was me who poisoned Grandfather?”

”I didn’t know!”

Tang Jiawei said coldly: ”When Mr. Jiang took Grandfather away, we tried to resist, but we were all sent flying by Mr. Jiang. After Mr. Jiang left, we realized that none of us were injured. If we, as Innate Grandmasters, weren’t injured that would be one thing, but Feng’er was also unharmed.”

”With Feng’er’s weak strength, how could he not be hurt by the force that sent us flying?”

Glancing at Tang Feng, Tang Jiawei’s eyes revealed a complex expression: ”There’s only one explanation, Mr. Jiang never intended to harm us at all. If Grandfather’s poison had been his doing, why would he show mercy now that his actions had been exposed? Therefore, I thought that maybe we’ve been misled the whole time, and the most likely to misguide us was you—the first one who discovered Grandfather’s poisoning and informed us!”

”Initially, you insisted that Mr. Jiang was the one who poisoned him, and because of the trust we had in you, we didn’t think further. But when I started to suspect that Mr. Jiang might not be the murderer, naturally I thought of you!”

Tang Jiawei stared straight at Tang Yucheng: ”So, I decided to test you all, to see if it was really you. Unexpectedly...”

A pained expression appeared on Tang Jiawei’s face: ”Why? Yucheng, why did you do this? You’re already the heir to the Family Head, once I reach the Innate Peak and take over from your second uncle, you’ll be the Family Head. Why do you conspire with outsiders to harm your great-grandfather? Why do you resort to such methods to seize control of the Tang Family?”

”Jiang Chen actually didn’t hurt any of you?”

Tang Yucheng’s face showed a slight change, and a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: ”This Jiang Chen is really something, keeping his cool even under these circumstances!”

”However, Tang Jiawei, asking me, Tang Yucheng, why I use such methods to take over the Tang Family, isn’t that laughable?”

At this, Tang Yucheng’s face contorted with rage as he suddenly roared: ”Why can you all practice martial arts and I cannot? Why are you all called the hope of the Tang Family, while I, only ever called the heir to the Family Head, have never been seen by anyone as the Tang Family’s hope?”

”All of you know very well that my role as the heir is just a mere title. The family affairs, I’m not allowed to get involved; international matters, I’m not allowed to handle; all they have me do is study, and then study some more! They say it’s so I can manage the company better in the future, but what about them?”

Pointing at Tang Yulin and Tang Feng, Tang Yucheng shouted: ”They are both younger than me! One is already managing family affairs, the other is already manipulating the businesses of two families. Am I inferior to them?”

”I’m not willing to accept this!”

Tang Yucheng’s face contorted with ferocity, his eyes filled with cynical fury:

”Who among you has truly respected me? None of you listened to a word I said. Tang Jiawei, you think I don’t know what you’re thinking? Are you not just bullying me because I have no father, no grandfather? You just want your two sons to sideline me, don’t you? Am I the heir to the Tang Family Head? Hah! Once I become the Family Head of the Tang Family, wouldn’t I just be a puppet Family Head?”

”Yucheng, how... how can you think like that? Getting Yulin and Feng involved in the family and business affairs earlier is to make them your capable aides in the future, to help you!” Tang Jiawei said with a face full of grief, his eyes brimming with profound disappointment.

”Big brother, ever since I started participating in the family affairs, dad reminded me no less than three times that I was merely representing you in the family matters, and in the future, my role was to assist you in managing the family!”

Tang Yulin said earnestly, ”Back then, dad asked me if I was willing to accept this. I said I was, because you are my big brother! You’re the one who would fight for me and protect me since we were young.”

Tang Feng looked at Tang Yucheng with calm eyes, his expression stern: ”Big brother, because there are many temptations in business, dad reminded me even more frequently. All along, I have regarded myself as an employee, and the one I work for is not the Tang Family, but you, big brother!”

Tang Jiawei also sighed deeply, ”Yucheng, you’ve got it all wrong. There’s not a single person in the family who looks down on you.”

Tang Yucheng looked into the eyes of Tang Yulin and Tang Feng, seeing their sincerity and respect, and a tumultuous wave surged in his heart!

I was wrong!

Was I wrong?!

Everyone in the family...

Tang Yucheng’s expression suddenly became frantic, and he muttered unconsciously, ”I was wrong! It was my fault! It turns out it was all my fault!”

”Hmph! Waste!”

A scornful snort sounded, and Zhuge Junlie said mockingly, ”What a touching display of brotherly love! But shouldn’t you be considering the matter of who will live and who will die?”

A sardonic look flashed in his eyes as Zhuge Junlie glanced at Tang Yucheng, Tang Yulin, and Tang Feng: ”You three brothers can keep one alive to be the Family Head of the Tang Family, but it will be a Family Head under our control. After all, those people overseas, they only recognize the Tang Family! Cherish this rare chance to live. We only need one!”

”Bastard!” Tang Jiawei glared at Zhuge Junlie with hatred.

Zhuge Junlie’s move was a direct strike at the heart, clearly stating that only one of the three Tang siblings would be spared, which would turn the sense of guilt just emerging in Tang Yucheng’s heart into suspicion. At such a sensitive time for Tang Yucheng, if Tang Yulin and the other showed any hesitation, it would make him once again grow to hate the Tang Family.

Tang Jiawei saw clearly that the Zhuge Family would definitely not spare Tang Yulin and Tang Feng, as the two were too familiar with the Tang Family’s industries. If they did something covertly, it would be difficult to detect.

And Tang Yucheng, as the heir apparent who was not very familiar with the family’s power, had become the best choice!

What Zhuge Junlie said was merely to erase the guilt that had just begun to emerge in Tang Yucheng’s heart towards the Tang Family!
