Chapter 154 - So Magnificent (1/2)
Chapter 154: So Magnificent
The courtyard was so silent that only the sound of the wind blowing could be heard. The young maiden’s hair and clothes rustled in the breeze. Her figure was slender, but she proudly stood tall. She looked so magnificent, and had such an imposing manner, that it hurt the eyes of all who saw her!
In a daze, Lan Xinyu looked at Ling Chuxi and suddenly understood that the difference between them was just as her grandfather had said. It was not just a small difference…
Qin Linzhi’s face turned ash white as he finally opened his mouth and said, “Fine. Fine. Very well! All of you just wait and see! Let’s go!”
He turned around and beckoned the rest of the Qin family’s people to leave. Putting away the Luo Chen Sword, Ling Chuxi squinted at their departing figures that were slowly disappearing from her sight. The corner of her lips curled up into a sneer.
“Of course I’ll wait. I’ll wait for all of you to come!”
…
After that day, the conflict between the Ling family, Luo family, and Qin family turned even more fiery, regardless of whether it was compet.i.tion in the business sector or personal arguments. If some of the Ling family’s disciples were beaten up by the Qin and Luo family’s disciples today, then, tomorrow, the people who did the beating up the day before would be the ones getting mercilessly thrashed. They would be beaten up till their parents could not recognize them, lying on their beds, unable to get up.
It was not feasible for things to go on like this. The matter would eventually come to a head. Naturally, it wasn’t a good thing for s.h.i.+ Qu Town to constantly be in a state of chaos either.
Finally, the three families went to the town head and asked him to deal with this matter. The town head was an old man who had great prestige. He did not say much, but rather opted to solve this problem in the most simple yet most violent way.
A tournament.
The three families were to directly compete against each other. The winner would have all decision-making rights. Seniors were not allowed to compete. Each family had to send three juniors to partic.i.p.ate, and they must win two out of three battles.
The final finner would also get the majority of the town’s resources. Of this, the coal mine in the mountain behind s.h.i.+ Qu Town was the biggest resource. Its mining rights used to be split amongst the three families. If it belonged to only one family, needless to say, this family’s riches would grow. Then, the balance between the three families would definitely change.
