Chapter 348 Ling Qingxue unleashes her ultimate move at close range!
As the elder referee finished speaking.
The disciples of the Dongfang family, seated in their seats, raised their arms and shouted:
"Yay! Miss Shen won!!!"
"The Ling family's contestants are disappointing! Is that all? Can't you increase the intensity?!" Seeing the ashen faces of the Ling family disciples, the Dongfang family cultivators became even more enthusiastic:
"It seems the Ling family will have to take over the third son's position!"
"Haha, what goes around comes around! It's normal! It's normal!!"
The feud between the two sides is a long story, dating back to the Hundred States Resource War millions of years ago.
At that time, the Dongfang family obtained a lot of high-end cultivation resources, which were plundered by the Ling family of Jinzhou next door, resulting in heavy casualties.
The weak will be attacked; this is an unavoidable law of the jungle.
This led to a feud between the two families!
The two sides began to secretly antagonize each other, during which many family cultivators died. The conflict had reached an irreconcilable point, with each side wishing to annihilate the other before they would stop.
Today's battle has finally allowed the Dongfang family to vent their anger!
If this weren't Chaotian Palace's home ground, they would have immediately turned into trolls and started talking about their parents. They wouldn't have been so subtle in their words!
On the stage.
Ling Qingxue ignored the crowd's exclamations; for her, crossing borders was as easy as drinking water, nothing to be surprised about.
She looked directly at Ling Feng, whose expression remained calm on the podium, and smiled faintly:
"Patriarch Ling, I always struggle to control my strength in battle. I will definitely reflect on my actions when I return. You won't blame me or think of having me assassinated, will you?"
"Holy crap! He just went straight for the enemy's face and unleashed his ultimate attack?!" The disciples of the Dongfang family stared wide-eyed, their blood boiling with excitement!
They had only ever dreamed of such a scenario, one that threatened the very power of the Ling family!
Even Dongfang Mingyue's pretty face flushed with excitement as she stared intently at Ling Qingxue on the stage.
However, as the daughter of the family head, she naturally wouldn't show it so obviously to the surrounding disciples, and remained reservedly seated on the platform.
"Hahaha! Awesome!!" On the platform, Dongfang Yaotian, his lips twitching, wished he could drink a jar of fine wine right now!
At his level, engaging in face-to-face verbal sparring would actually diminish his status and the imposing presence of a Celestial King.
So even when they met Ling Feng, the two of them would smile at each other on the surface, but would only think about stabbing each other in the back.
But the younger generation is different!
This young lady is straightforward and speaks her mind without thinking. What can you, old man, do to me?!
Moreover, in such a grand setting, Shen Qingxue's words were undoubtedly a slap in the face to Ling Feng. How could he not be angry?!
This girl really made the Dongfang family proud.
It is evident that Shen Qingxue and the Ling family also have irreconcilable grievances, which means the Dongfang family got a huge advantage.
However, this is ultimately the home ground of Chaotian Palace, and the Dongfang family has a cooperative relationship with Chaotian Palace, so they naturally won't make things difficult for the host family.
He cleared his throat and smiled at Ling Qingxue:
"Don't worry, what kind of person is the head of the Ling family? If he were to assassinate you over this matter, who would dare to be friends with the Ling family?"
After saying that, he helplessly cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to Ling Feng:
"I'm just being blunt, Brother Feng, please forgive me."
Sarcasm, pure and simple sarcasm!
Ling Feng smiled and waved his hand, then looked at Ling Qingxue:
"Haha, young people should be energetic! As for their careless remarks, we can discipline them properly when they get back; it's nothing serious."
These words revealed the magnanimity of the Ling family head, while making Shen Qingxue appear petty and lacking in manners.
However, everyone present knew about the feud between the two families and did not think that Shen Qingxue was unsuitable. If the Ling family had benefited, they would definitely have taken advantage of the situation.
Regardless, this statement brought an end to the tit-for-tat exchange.
however!
In the audience, Dongfang Yu, the patriarch of the Dongfang family, dressed in a light veil, squinted at Ling Qingxue as she stepped off the stage:
'This girl, she exudes such a strong killing intent!'
Ling Qingxue hid it well, but as a Celestial King, she still saw the fierce glint in the girl's eyes.
After pondering Ling Feng's words for a moment, Dongfang Yu suddenly realized:
'To say Qingxue is ill-mannered is probably because her family was killed by the Ling family, which is why she has acted this way today…'
So, Shen Qingxue joining the Dongfang family makes perfect sense!
Given such deep-seated hatred, joining the Dongfang family is perfectly reasonable.
As the host, Chu Chengfei kept staring at Ling Qingxue's face as she took the stage.
'It's so similar, it's uncanny...'
Because Shen Qingxue's face looks a lot like one of his old friends!
It can be said that the resemblance is about 70%!
He glanced at Ling Feng discreetly, muttering to himself:
'He must have met Wei Ruhua, and Shen Qingxue is so hostile towards the Ling family… Could there be some secret involved?'
Wei Ruhua is a holy maiden of the Tongtian Divine Cult, a sect of evil forces. Her background is contrary to the righteous path, so she rarely appears before the world.
However, when Chu Chengfei was young, he traveled with Ling Chen, the second master of the Ling family, and met his confidante, who was none other than Wei Ruhua!
After Wei Ruhua's identity was exposed, the couple faced suppression from all sides, including attempts by righteous forces to assassinate them.
The Ling family would not allow the relationship between the two, otherwise the entire family would be wiped out by the righteous forces.
Even if Ling Chen gave up his position as head of the family and left the Ling family, it would be of no use.
Chu Chengfei didn't know what happened after that, and it became a taboo in the Ling family.
It was only after he became the Palace Master of Chaotian Palace that he learned some news about Ling Chen. He was told that since then, the most monstrous genius of the Ling family had fallen into depravity, had lost interest in cultivation, and wasted his great talent.
Wei Ruhua's whereabouts have also become a mystery.
Some say she had an affair with the righteous sects and was sealed in a forbidden area of the divine sect by the Tongtian Sect Leader.
Some say that her child was killed by righteous cultivators, which drove her insane.
Chu Chengfei said that the person Shen Qingxue resembled was Wei Ruhua!
He felt that Ling Feng, as Ling Chen's older brother, should have met Wei Ruhua!
Since Shen Qingxue resembles Ling Chen's former sister-in-law so much, even if she isn't Ling Chen's daughter, it's necessary to bring her back to the family to help that genius brother regain his confidence.
This is something that any leader of a power would do, and even Chu Chengfei felt sorry for Ling Chen's talent.
If there is an opportunity to ignite his fighting spirit, it would be beneficial to the faction.
But right now, Shen Qingxue has joined the Dongfang family and has a great feud with the Ling family!
This made Chu Chengfei subconsciously feel that there must be some secret involved!
'Could it be that Ling Feng did something wicked to Shen Qingxue? This girl only recently joined the Dongfang family seeking protection?' His eyes gleamed.
Judging from the current situation, this is very likely!
It might even be a deep-seated blood feud!
'Ling Chen, if I told you that your daughter is still alive, it would surely wake you from your despair!'
As a friend who had gone through thick and thin with him, he felt it was necessary to do so!
Even if Shen Qingxue is merely similar to Wei Ruhua, it would still be a form of salvation for Ling Chen.
If Ling Chen knew that Ling Feng had harmed Shen Qingxue, he would be in trouble.
'That's interesting...' Chu Chengfei smiled faintly, sipping his spiritual tea as he continued watching the match.
If this were true, Ling Chen would definitely become hostile towards Ling Feng.
At that time, internal strife within the Ling family's upper echelons, coupled with Shen Qingxue's joining the Dongfang family, will surely provoke dissatisfaction within the Ling family!
Once things unfold as he envisions, the struggle between the two families will intensify!
As a Celestial King-level power in Linzhou, Chaotian Palace was able to take advantage of the chaos in the conflict between the two sides!
There was no sympathy for my friend's plight.
Once he reaches his position, thinking about how to gain benefits and expand his power is what a palace master should be doing!
