My Rise To Power After She Left

Yvonne is cheating on her husband, Lennox Hayes, and is violent toward him. Lennox was abandoned as a child and taken in by Yvonne's family, and he has lived in their house as a kept son-in-law ever since, so when the marriage breaks he is left with nothing at all. Then Amelia Langford, heiress to the Langford family of Grimwood, comes to him with a jade keepsake from an engagement between them that had been buried for years, and gives it back to him. The keepsake carries the inheritance his father left him, and his power wakes. With Amelia urging him on, Lennox starts hitting back. He humiliates Yvonne and earns the respect of Riverain. The eldest son of Yvonne's family comes at him and he stands up to him. All the while he is looking for clues about where his father went. He grows into the power a step at a time, and when word of his father finally reaches him, he follows it into the world of cultivators.
