C77 A single strike to eliminate all evil in the world (1/2)
On this day, the skies were clear and clear. On this day, the sun shone brightly. On this day, the Cangzhou at the border. Today, it was packed full of people. Today was the day of the competition between the three young people of Cangzhou's family that was agreed upon by the City Lord's Mansion. A month's time passed by quickly. During this one month, the Cangzhou City had become much calmer, and many people could even feel the tranquility before the arrival of the storm.
In the plaza in front of the City Lord's Mansion, a huge stage was erected. The three parties arranged an equal number of seats. The surrounding commoners of Cangzhou had long surrounded the place to the point that not even a drop of water could trickle through. Everyone's gaze was fixated on the empty seats in the three groups.
One month ago night, Lu Feng and Tian Zhenguo communicated with each other, and decided to continue observing. Lu Feng, on the other hand, was still secretly investigating Wu Junwu during this competition. Lu Feng and Sun Shengyang, however, had been wholeheartedly cultivating in the Ling Family the entire time, and did not go out on the streets to inquire about the news.
In a month's time, Lu Feng and Sun Shengyang broke through at the same time, reaching the realm of the fourth level and the second level of the profound king realm respectively. After successfully stepping into the middle stage of the Profound King Stage, Lu Feng became more confident in exposing Wu Junwu's scheme.
”Young warriors, it's getting late. Let's go.” In the Ling Residence, Ling Gaoze saw Lu Feng and Sun Shengyang walking out of his room, and hastily said to them.
Lu Feng nodded and did not say anything, only glanced at the people at the entrance preparing to set off. Other than Ling Boyuan and Ling Jiao, there was only one butler accompanying them, while Ling Hua stood beside Ling Jiao the entire time, as though she was secretly protecting Ling Jiao.
After Lu Feng found out that Ling Jiao was not ordinary, he had secretly observed Ling Jiao and even the Little Star had appeared to carefully inspect her blood vessels. However, for some reason, the Little Star's investigation was hindered and could only conclude that Ling Jiao's blood was not normal, but she could not find out the reason. This also made Lu Feng extremely curious about this seemingly harmless Ling Family's Eldest Miss.
After the citizens saw the Ling Family's appearance, they started off with a few low voices to the very end to cheer for the Ling Family. Although everyone knew that the Ling Family might not have much left to do, the good things that the Ling Family had done to the citizens of Cangzhou all these years were still engraved in everyone's hearts.
On the other side, the members of the City Lord's Mansion walked out of the City Lord's Mansion with the Song Family. Looking at the popular Ling Family, Wu Junwu's mouth twitched in disdain.
”Sigh, this time, the Ling Family is really finished.”
”Yeah, what a pity. The heavens are unfair.”
”Looks like we should consider relocating. Otherwise, we will definitely be in dire straits in the Cangzhou City.”
When the surrounding commoners saw that the three families were seated, they watched as the mayor walked onto the stage and prepared to speak. The commoners whispered amongst themselves, looking regretfully at the Ling family, disdainfully at the Song family, and hatefully at the mayor.
Wu Junwu waved his hand, and the surroundings became silent. Many black armored guards surrounded the entire stage, forcing all of the nearby citizens back a few feet. Wu Junwu looked around, and then said indifferently: ”Originally, this competition could be avoided, but it's a pity that the Ling Family strongly requests that this City Lord also respects the Ling Family. However, before the competition, I still have to ask Patriarch Ling, did I agree to it then?”
As Wu Junwu finished speaking, he looked at Ling Gaoze with a faint threatening gaze, while Sun Shengyang, who was at the side, felt even more disdain towards Wu Junwu, who was extremely shameless, as he gently spat towards the direction of the stage.
”Thank you Mayor for your kind intentions, I think our Ling family should participate in the martial arts competition. If the Ling family loses, then we should agree to the mayor's conditions. I just wonder, what are the rules for the martial arts competition?” Now that the Ling Family had Lu Feng and Sun Shengyang assisting them, Ling Gaoze was extremely confident. He looked at Wu Junwu who was in the arena and felt like he was watching a clown performing to his heart's content.
”In that case, let the battle begin.” The rules are simple. Our three forces will send one person to the stage, and then eliminate the two of them. The one person who is left will be the victor, and in three rounds and two wins, does Patriarch Ling have any objections? ” Receiving Ling Gaoze's rejection, Wu Junwu did not get angry, as though he already knew it was going to happen. With a smile, he announced the rules of the competition.
”F * ck, so shameless.” After hearing the rules, Sun Shengyang said in an even more imposing manner. Who didn't know that the Mayor's mansion and the Song Family were in the same boat? The Ling family clearly wanted to fight one against two. He never thought that Wu Junwu would be so shameless.
”Patriarch, the rules of the competition are very disadvantageous to us. How about we agree to the City Lord's request? It would not be a loss for us.” Ling Boyuan, who was sitting behind Ling Gaoze, softly suggested in his ear.
”Shut up!” Ling Gaoze shouted in anger. Perhaps Lu Feng did not know about the City Lord's request, but Ling Gaoze was very clear, if he agreed, then even if he protected the Ling Family right now, in the future, the Ling Family would not be able to hold their head up in the Cangzhou City, and would one day be annexed by the Song Family. Furthermore, with Lu Feng's help, there was no telling who would win.
