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.

...
After that day, the conflict between the Ling family, Luo family, and Qin family turned even more fiery, regardless of whether it was competition 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 Shi 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 participate, 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 Shi 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.
All three families were very satisfied with this decision. The Qin family and the Luo family naturally assumed that they would win. No matter how they looked at it, they felt that they were at an advantage.
Since they were in this together, it meant that it was six people versus three people from the Ling family. Just by numbers alone, they had enough to torture the Ling family’s people to death. As for the mining rights, they would both benefit, regardless of which family’s hands it fell into.
But just one sentence from Ling Chuxi was enough to reassure the first elder and the other members of the Ling family.
“The Ling family will definitely win this battle!” she said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThough her tone was somewhat lazy, there was a strong sense of self-confidence and dominance between her brows. This left the elders feeling like they had taken a pill to calm their nerves.
The elders knew about how Ling Chuxi had not only cured the second elder, but also helped Ling Yichen reach Battle Qi Level-7. The third elder’s reaction to this was especially entertainting. Not even in his wildest dreams did he ever think that Ling Chuxi would actually have achieved such things.
If he had known, he never would have dared to covet what was rightfully hers, even if he was beaten to death. However, because of his loyalty to the Ling family, Ling Chuxi chose to not make things difficult for him. This allowed him to feel somewhat relieved.
The tournament would take place in three days.
The people who would attend as witnesses were the town head, as well as the head of White Stone City’s Lan family clan! This surprised both the Qin family and the Luo family. The Lan family was virtuous and prestigious. Whether it was in cultivation abilities or wealth, they didn’t hold a candle to the Lan family. Why was their head invited as a witness for this?
Only Ling Chuxi and her friends knew the reason. It was because at this very moment, Lan Xinyu was pestering her to spar!
“Again. Again. What was going on with that move just now?”
The corner of Lan Xinyu’s eye was bruised, but she was still tirelessly bugging Ling Chuxi to explain how she had sent her flying with a punch earlier on.
