Chapter 210: Nearly defeating the two young masters, a conspiracy emerges
A golden light suddenly appeared, and a dazzling golden light burst out from Ren Xiaoyao's fingertips, like a flash of lightning, instantly hitting the second young master's chest.
"boom!"
There was a loud bang, and dust flew up in the arena. Everyone only felt a flash of golden light before their eyes, and then they could not see anything clearly.
When the dust settled, everyone could see the situation clearly. They saw the Second Young Master lying on the ground in a mess, a trace of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, while Ren Xiaoyao was still standing there, his clothes rustling, as if everything that had just happened had nothing to do with him.
"Cough cough..." The second young master struggled to get up, but found that he was unable to move at all. With that attack just now, Ren Xiaoyao had completely defeated him.
"Second Young Master, thank you for letting me win." Ren Xiaoyao retracted the golden light from his fingertips and said calmly. His tone was calm, as if he had just won an ordinary competition, and he did not feel proud or complacent about defeating the Second Young Master.
"Impossible... This is impossible..." The second young master's face was full of unwillingness. He couldn't understand why he was defeated by an unknown family's abandoned child.
"Brother Xiaoyao, you are so awesome!" The third young lady ran to Ren Xiaoyao excitedly and looked at him with admiration.
Everyone in the family also came to their senses, and for a moment, congratulations and praises were heard everywhere.
The Great Elder looked at the high-spirited young man in front of him, a complex expression flashing in his cloudy eyes. He originally thought that Ren Xiaoyao was just a talented junior, but he didn't expect that he actually possessed such powerful strength.
Just as everyone was cheering for Ren Xiaoyao's victory, a cold laugh suddenly rang out in the crowd, sounding particularly harsh.
"Hahaha...what a wonderful performance!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a mysterious man dressed in black, wearing a hat and with an unclear face slowly walking out of the crowd.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into my Ren family's arena!" The Great Elder's face darkened and he asked sternly.
The mysterious man ignored the great elder. He walked straight to the center of the arena, swept his eyes over everyone, and finally landed on Ren Xiaoyao, with a playful smile on his lips.
"Boy, your strength is indeed good, but do you think you can become the head of the Ren family just like that? You are too naive!"
Before he finished speaking, the mysterious man suddenly made a move. He formed seals with his hands, and a powerful force instantly erupted from his body, sweeping in all directions like a raging wave.
The protective formation surrounding the arena collapsed in an instant like paper in the face of this powerful force.
"Not good!" The Great Elder's face changed drastically. He didn't expect that this mysterious man actually possessed such terrifying strength.
"What do you want to do?!" The Great Elder shouted angrily, and his figure flashed, standing in front of Ren Xiaoyao, trying to resist this powerful force.
The mysterious man simply sneered without replying. With a flick of his right hand, a dark shadow instantly shot towards the Great Elder… The shadow's speed was so fast that the Great Elder didn't even have time to react before it was struck in the chest. He groaned, staggered back several steps, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"Grand Elder!" Everyone exclaimed, and Ren Xiaoyao hurried forward to support the Grand Elder.
The Mysterious Man's blow wasn't fatal, but the humiliation was palpable. As a highly respected elder in the family, when had the Great Elder ever been treated like this? Furious, he pointed at the Mysterious Man's nose and roared, "You lunatic! How dare you run wild in my Ren Family? Do you know..."
"What do I know?" The mysterious man interrupted the Great Elder before he could finish, his tone filled with sarcasm. "I know that in order to consolidate your position, you secretly suppressed the other elders, even going so far as to expel them from the family?"
The Great Elder's face froze. This was indeed a thorn in his heart, unknown for years, yet revealed publicly by this mysterious visitor. He suppressed his anger and was about to retort when the mysterious visitor continued, "I also know that the Second Young Master has been bullying the family for years, relying on your favor, bullying his own people, and even..."
The mysterious man paused deliberately when he said this, and glanced at the third young lady in the crowd, with a meaningful smile on his face. "He even did some despicable things!"
The whole crowd erupted in laughter as these words were spoken. Everyone looked at the Second Young Master and the Third Young Lady with strange eyes. The Second Young Master's face was ashen, but he couldn't utter a word, for he knew that everything the Mysterious Man had said was true. The Third Young Lady was even paler, her body trembling slightly, her eyes filled with fear and grievance.
"You're talking nonsense!" The Great Elder roared, trying to stop the mysterious man from continuing, but it was too late.
The suspicion and distrust among family members, like a seed, quickly took root, sprouted and spread under the instigation of the mysterious man.
Seeing this, Charlene was filled with anxiety. She knew that if the mysterious man continued to talk like this, the entire family would be plunged into chaos. She took a deep breath and said loudly, "Everyone, don't listen to his attempts to sow discord! We are all family. If there is anything, why can't we sit down and talk it out..."
However, her voice was drowned out by the clamor of quarreling. The family members had lost their minds, blaming each other, cursing each other, and even fighting.
At this moment, the family seemed to be falling apart from within.
The mysterious man standing in the middle of the crowd looked at the scene before him, and the smile on his face became more and more smug...
"Stop! Stop it!" A loud voice suddenly rang out. Ren Xiaoyao stood up suddenly, his eyes red as he stared at the chaotic scene in front of him. There seemed to be a raging fire burning in his heart.
Ren Xiaoyao's furious voice boomed like thunder in everyone's ears, but it only caused a small ripple in the chaotic scene before being drowned out in an instant. The family members had been blinded by the anger instigated by the mysterious man, and the friendship of the past seemed so fragile in the face of suspicion and doubt.
Ren Xiaoyao's heart sank. He realized that this was all part of a plot orchestrated by the mysterious figure, designed to completely destroy the family's unity. He had become a pawn in this scheme. He clenched his fists and roared again, "Stop it! Do you want to watch our family be destroyed?!"
However, his cry fell on deaf ears and did not stir up any waves. The family members had lost their minds, and they were deeply trapped in the lies and traps woven by the mysterious man and could not extricate themselves.
"Brother Xiaoyao, everyone's angry, don't waste your energy..." The Third Miss's voice rang out in Ren Xiaoyao's ears, trembling with worry. She tried to get closer to Ren Xiaoyao, but was pushed by several emotional family members and almost fell to the ground.
"Miss Third, are you still speaking for him? Don't forget, the Second Young Master is yours..."
"Shut up!" Ren Xiaoyao shouted angrily, shielding the Third Young Lady behind him. His gaze swept across the rude family members like a knife. "What qualifications do you have to accuse the Third Young Lady? Have you forgotten the family rules?!"
However, his words not only failed to have any effect, but instead aroused greater backlash.
"Rules? Who still cares about rules now?!"
"That's right, ever since he came, the family has never had peace!"
"That's right, it's all because of him that we're like this now!"
Accusations, insults, and curses flooded towards Ren Xiaoyao like a tide, drowning him in it. He tightly protected the Third Young Lady, letting those vicious words pierce his eardrums like sharp blades, but he remained silent.
He knew that it was useless to say anything now. Only by finding the flaws of the mysterious man and exposing his true face could he calm down the dispute and restore peace to the family.
He took a deep breath, his eyes firm and resolute, like a reef standing firm in the storm.
"Just wait and see, I will definitely find out the truth and bring you to justice!" Ren Xiaoyao swore secretly in his heart, his tone cold and without a trace of warmth.
He suddenly raised his head, and his sharp eyes swept across the chaotic crowd in front of him, and finally fell on an inconspicuous corner in the distance.
There, a dark shadow flashed by and disappeared into the night...
Ren Xiaoyao felt heavy-hearted. His family members seemed bewildered, and no matter how he tried to persuade them, it was useless. He knew that only by uncovering the mastermind and revealing his true identity could this crisis be resolved.
However, the mysterious man was hiding in the shadows, and trying to find his flaws was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Looking at the chaotic scene before him, Ren Xiaoyao knew that now was not the time to act rashly. He had to calm down before he could find a breakthrough.
"Brother Xiaoyao, what should we do now?" The third young lady's voice was tinged with tears. She had never seen such a tense situation in the family before, and her heart was filled with fear and helplessness.
Ren Xiaoyao patted her hand gently, reassuring her, but his gaze never left the inconspicuous corner of the crowd where the shadow had disappeared. He believed that the mysterious man must still be observing all this in the dark, and if he was not careful, he would fall into his trap.
"Trust me, I will handle everything." Ren Xiaoyao's voice was low and firm, like a flash of lightning in the dark night, illuminating the confused eyes of the third young lady.
He helped the third young lady to the side, avoiding the crowd's jostling, but his eyes kept wandering among the crowd, searching for that familiar figure. He knew that if he wanted to expose the mysterious man's true identity, he had to find loopholes in his words, and this required him to observe more carefully and think more carefully.
The chaos continued, and the family members grew increasingly agitated, as if a larger conflict would erupt at any moment. The Great Elder waved his cane feebly, trying to maintain order, but was pushed aside by the angry crowd, his voice drowned out by the clamor, sounding pale and powerless.
Xia Lin stood anxiously on the outskirts of the crowd, wanting to step forward to dissuade them, but was blocked by the surging crowd. She looked at Ren Xiaoyao with concern, but she could do nothing to help him. She could only pray silently in her heart, hoping that he would put an end to the dispute as soon as possible.
At this moment, Ren Xiaoyao's gaze suddenly focused. He saw a dark shadow flash by in an inconspicuous corner of the crowd. Although it was only a brief moment, he captured it keenly.
"It's him!" Ren Xiaoyao's heart trembled, and he moved towards that direction calmly. He wanted to hear with his own ears what this mysterious man had to say to completely intensify this conflict.
The noise of the crowd gradually faded away. Ren Xiaoyao held his breath and approached the corner cautiously. He wanted to see what this secretive guy was plotting!
"Things are going smoothly. It seems your plan has succeeded..." A deep voice came from the corner, with a hint of pride and sinisterness. "Next, it's time..."
