"This is the last pill, isn't it?"

"Not bad, three years have passed, grandpa's illness is finally cured. Mom, there's just one hour left." He wiped the sweat from his forehead, his cultivation sealed after, he was weak and couldn't even boil medicine over the stove's heat.

For three years now, as a respected Celestial Master, I have been living in the Su household.

Although it's a bit redundant, life is going well.

Three years ago, the elderly patriarch of the Su family was seriously ill and nearing death. Medicine and surgery were ineffective.

The Su family back then was still a second-rate family in Nanzhou.

The Su family offered a condition: whoever could cure the old master, the Su family would grant them anything they desired.

Unfortunately, the old patriarch of the Su family is seriously ill and even the gods can't save him.

When the Su family was at its most difficult time, an old Taoist priest came to their door with a young Taoist apprentice. He cured the old patriarch and proposed a condition: keep the young Taoist apprentice in the Su family as a son-in-law.

Just like that, Su Jia's pearl, Su Zitong, got married to the young Taoist priest Gao Shidian. The news spread through Nancheng in an instant.

Although the Su family is a second-rate family, Su Zitong's reputation as a beauty is far and wide. She is the number one beauty in Nancheng, with countless suitors vying for her attention, their status no lower than hers.

Who would have thought that Su Zitian actually married a penniless mountain hermit?

From then on, Gao lived as a son-in-law in the Su family for three years, being honest and hardworking.

Although it was just a meal, the way Gao ate this bowl of rice made countless people envious.

And without saying, Su Zitong is beautiful and has the appearance of a fairy descending to earth.

Shi Gao's status in the Su family was like that of the moon surrounded by stars, with everyone fawning over him.

The reason is simple, Old Master Su's life has been in Gao's hands for the past three years. Every month, Old Master Su needs to take a dose of medicine, which Gao personally prepares each time. This is the afterthought left by the old Taoist priest.

"Bang!"

He felt a surge of emotion, and instinctively glanced out the window.

Soon the sun will be high in the sky, and his sealed cultivation base will recover immediately.

Just then, a fiery slap landed on Gao's face.

With one leg wobbling, he almost fell face-first to the ground.

He was utterly shocked, speechless. It was Li Xuemei, his mother-in-law, who had hit him.

"Mom, what are you doing?"

"Bah, you good-for-nothing! Who do you think you are? A useless wretch! Old man, I finally got the last pill. My Su family doesn't need you anymore, get out!"

Li Xuemei was like an angry tigress, baring her claws, the composure of a former socialite gone. It seemed as if she wanted to vent all the humiliation she had endured over the past three years.

Gao Shuang's eyes sank, "What do you mean, the Su family is going to be ungrateful?"

"Ingratitude?" Li Xuemei sneered, "You good-for-nothing bum, you've been eating and drinking for free at our Su family for three years, and it's not enough to repay your debts? Holding the old master's life in your hands, you worthless trash are really arrogant! The entire Su family has to look up to you. Do you know how many scornful looks our family received because of you, how much our daughter Zhitong suffered?"

The stillness of the kitchen soon drew all the Su family members inside the villa.

The elderly patriarch of the Su family had three sons. Su Zitong was the son of Su Zhenghao, the third son.

Today is the day when the grandfather takes his monthly medicine, and all three branches of the Su family came.

The old grandfather came, leaning on his cane. Seeing that Li Xuemei in high heels had quarreled with Gao Ge, he slammed his cane hard onto the ground.

"Old Third, how can you be so impetuous? Didn't you say to wait until I finish my medicine? Quickly, quickly protect my medicine."

"Grandpa, don't worry, with me here, no one will dare to mess with your medicine."

Su Chen, the son of the head of the Su family, stepped forward and pushed Gao to the ground, tightly guarding the medicine jar.

The child was weak, and after sitting on his buttocks in high school, the pain caused him to sweat cold from his forehead.

He struggled to his feet. Though Gao was a little confused, he more or less understood.

Unexpectedly, the old Taoist's insurance couldn't withstand the betrayal of people's hearts.

This medicine will be ready in one hour.

Outside, there's still an hour before noon, and my cultivation level will be unlocked.

A powerful celestial master, with mystical powers at his command. Life and death are but a thought away for him. Don't even think about trying to deceive Gao.

Unfortunately, the Su family wasn't even willing to wait for an hour!

Glancing coldly at the old patriarch of the Su family, this old man who had called himself "grandfather" for three years, his acting skills were pretty good. Was all the past kindness just an act?

"Grandfather, is the Su family going to drive me out?"

"Three years have passed, you've stayed in the Su family for three years. Our Su family hasn't mistreated you, we've treated each other fairly, you should leave now." The old master of the Su family said.

“Father, why are you being polite to this useless good-for-nothing? He’s just a good-for-nothing! Our Zizhuo marrying him is a disaster! It's like we've been cursed for eight lifetimes! Without our Su family, he would be dead by tomorrow.” Li Xuemei raged, wanting to unleash all the anger she had bottled up over the past three years.

"Good, what a good Su family!"

Gao didn't get angry but laughed instead, "What about Su Zitian? She wants me to leave, shouldn't she be here? After all, we are still legally married, don't we have a marriage certificate?"

“Get out! You’ve caused enough trouble for my son. Zitian is at work, swamped with responsibilities, he doesn't have time for you, a useless good-for-nothing. That worthless marriage certificate? I'll find someone to get it annulled! You and my Zitian are over, get out!” Li Xuemei cursed angrily.

"Madam, uncle, what's wrong?"

At this time, Granny Zhuang came. Seeing that Gao was not in good shape, she immediately ran over.

"You old geezer, get lost."

Li Xuemei flew into a rage, shoving Granny Zhuang to the ground and spitting in her face.

"Old man, this is the Su family, do you have a say here?"

Old Mrs. Zhuang was completely dumbfounded. Ever since she entered the Su family, Li Xuemei had always been polite and courteous. What was going on today?

After scolding Granny Zhuang, Li Xuemei turned her ire on Gao. "Coward! You eat for free at the Su household and that's not enough, you even bring this old thing here. You country bumpkin, running around our Su household, making us lose all face!"

My heart burns with rage, and I deeply wish I could exterminate the entire Su family with a single palm strike.

Damn, you've been acting for three years?

Gao went forward and helped up Old Mrs. Zhuang. The old woman was a pitiful sight, over sixty years old and still working to make ends meet.

At first, I came to the Su family as a nanny and helped out in the kitchen and tidied up the house.

Unexpectedly, today I have been subjected to such humiliation from the Su family.

"Okay, I'm leaving!"

With a decision made, Gao would not stay at the Su family any longer.

In three years, he could transform the Su family from a second-rate clan into the first family in Nanzhen. He could also drag the Su family down from their pedestal.

"Wait a moment, leave your smartphone and ring behind. These belong to the Su family, you can't take them away." Seeing Gao was about to leave with Granny Zhuang, Li Xuemei rushed over to stop her.

He wouldn't even look back. He took off his phone and wedding ring. Now, looking at these things makes him feel sick.

"And this old thing, everything he eats and uses is from my Su family, all of it left for me."

"Li Xuemei, you should always leave room for others. Old Lady Zhuang didn't come to the Su family just to eat and drink for free; she's here to work."

"Hmph, work? What qualifications does this foolish woman have to work in the Su family? Bring them here! Strip them of their possessions, including their phones and money. They are not allowed to take anything from the Su family!"

Gao Mian sank like water, finally under the brutal torment of a group of tiger and wolf bodyguards. He was stripped naked, left with only his head, and even Zhuang's grandmother's money and phone were stolen.

All that remained by his feet was the robe he had worn when he first came to the Su family.

Gao chuckled wryly at himself. A Celestial Master, reduced to fleeing like this...

He draped the Daoist robe over Grandma Zhuang and helped her out of the Su family.

Although it was the twelfth month of winter, a time traditionally associated with mild weather, the snow on the road remained unmelted.

Every step Gao Bai took, his feet began to swell.

"Uncle, put on this robe," said Granny Zhuang. Seeing him like that made her heart ache; she even took off her own cloth shoes.

Gao looked at the sky, time was almost up.

"Mom, I'm fine. You wear it. Let's find a place for me to sit down."

Su's house is located in Nanhu Garden, the most luxurious villa district in all of Nanshan City.

Two people were just about to find a place to settle down when several security guards from the property came.

Without a word, he threw them both out of the car and into the Nanhu Garden.

"What the hell are you doing, a waste who was kicked out by the Su family, get lost!" A young security guard couldn't stand it anymore and rushed up to kick Gao twice.

"What are you doing? Don't hurt my nephew, he's a good person." Old Madam Zhuang went to pull at the security guard.

Unfortunately, as I got older, a security guard pushed me down in the snow.

"You old fool, what kind of useless good-for-nothing is this? He's been kicked out by the Su family and is now a homeless stray, nothing but a dog."

The security guard spat a mouthful of phlegm on the ground, insulting Gao and the other person, then swaggered away.

Gao looked around, not being particular about the place, and sat down on the ground, his hands hanging loosely.

Soon, a mighty force surged out from his dantian.

Three years ago, a master and his disciple joined forces to subdue a strange demon deep in the snowy mountains.

The monstrous energy was absorbed into Gao's dantian, and from then on, the demonic Qi of Dao and Magic intertwined within him.

His master asserted that in three years, the demonic and righteous qi would merge into one, marking the time when Gao Yifei would ascend to unprecedented heights, surpassing even the Celestial Masters.

The old Taoist settled Gao and then went on a journey around the world, saying that he was going to pursue becoming an immortal.

For three years, various forces have been searching high and low, but unfortunately, there hasn't even been a trace.

Today, three years have passed. With every breath I take, my cultivation has returned to its peak, and the power surging within me far surpasses what it was before.

Waves of surging energy flowed through the high current, and in an instant, the previously frail child grew strong.

Even the feet that had just been frozen red, were back to normal.

"Uncle, what's wrong with you?"

"Aunt Zhuang, from now on don't call me your niece's husband. Just call me Gao."

Gao Qi, his eyes full of coldness, said to Su family, "Prepare for your doom."

"Well, well, if it isn't Gao, the useless son-in-law of the Su family. What happened? Did you get kicked out by your own family? Look at this pathetic sight of yours, truly disgusting."
