"A third-grade Great Return Pill?" A glimmer of hope flashed through Yushan's eyes, only to dim again. Never mind a hidden family; even the ancient sects found it extraordinarily difficult to obtain a third-grade pill. What virtue or ability did the Hidden Yu Family have that it could lay hands on one?
And even if they did obtain a third-grade pill, given his current standing in the Yu Family, they would never give it to him to take. Yet even if only a sliver of hope remained, he would not have chosen revenge; he would not have chosen to risk everything.
Yushan had been injured by Wei Zhao back when the latter was still at the Earth Rank. In truth, the injury was not all that severe, and a single Great Return Pill would have been enough to restore him. But the Yu Family's coldness in a hundred different ways, and Old Master Yu's disappointment in him, left Yushan unable to see any hope at all. He knew he had been abandoned.
Ever since Old Master Yu learned the truth, any chance of recovery had been gone. That he was allowed to live quietly as a rich young master was already generous enough; the fact that the Yu Family had not swept him out the door showed they had left him some dignity.
"Exactly, so it's not as if there's no hope at all!" Zhao Qibing said. "As long as you have a say in the Yu Family, everything else can be discussed, right?"
"That's true..." Yushan said, though in his heart he thought nothing of the sort. "But those are secondary matters. If you want my help, fine, but you have to promise me one thing first!"
"What thing?" Zhao Qibing asked hurriedly.
"One day, when you have enough strength, you must help me get rid of Wei Zhao! He's the one who injured me, and he's the man I hate most in this world. If you promise to help me take my revenge, then I'll help you..." Yushan said after a moment's pondering.
"Wei Zhao?" Zhao Qibing was taken aback, then gave a bitter laugh. "My hatred for him is actually no less than yours, but I'm no match for him..."
"I said one day. If you have the strength by then, you'll help me take my revenge; if not, I certainly won't force you." In his heart, though, Yushan was thinking that whether Wei Zhao lived or died did not really matter. What he wanted most was for Yu Bing to die!
Yushan naturally knew all about the affair between Yuning and Wei Zhao, so handing Yuning over to Zhao Qibing to ruin was, in a roundabout way, revenge on Wei Zhao as well! And Yuning's status was somewhat special—she could not lose her virginity. Yushan actually knew a little about this, though not the details, but that did not stop him from moving against the Yu Family!
Once something happened to Yuning, the ones who would suffer were Old Master Yu, Yu Xiaochen, and Yu Bing! As for whether the Yu Family would decline as a result, Yushan did not care in the least. In his eyes, the Yu Family as it was now and a fallen Yu Family were no different to him.
