Translator: Jillian Editor: JimmyWhen he returned to the inn, both his father and sister were standing at the door with a worriedlook.When they saw Qin Wushuang had returned safely, their worries were immediately replacedwith a look of relief as they walked over.“Wushuang, are you alright?” Qin Xiu quickly grabbed Qin Wushuang’s hand and asked in acaring tone.“Let’s talk inside.”The family of three entered Qin Wushuang's room, and he started to speak: "Sister, don't worry,it's alright."Qin Lianshan asked sincerely: “Xi Men Feudal Lords? Those people again?”His father’s tone was noticeably brimming with despair and a trace of terror. The interventionof a Feudal Lord powerhouses was far beyond his tolerance.Even during their most prosperous time, the Qin family had only been a Wealthy Class. The gapbetween them and the Feudal Lords was immense.And right now, people of the Xi Men Feudal Lords had repeatedly come after them. QinLianshan could not help feeling worried and even become somewhat hesitant.“It is the Xi Men Feudal Lords. But this time, these visitors were more powerful than that XiMen Qian, whom we had met last time at the Venerable Da Xi family.”Qin Lianshan’s heart bumped, as he thought, stronger than Xi Men Qian?A lot of the aristocrats had seen with their own eyes of how Xi Men Qian had acted arrogantly infront of Da Xi Heng. In Qin Lianshan’s mind, Xi Men Qian was already an unreachableexistence.If they were stronger than Xi Men Qian, how much more powerful could they be?Qin Wushuang had sharp eyes, and he knew that his father's mind had swayed. It was not hisfault because this fact was, indeed, far beyond his knowledge and tolerance."Father, since I was three years old, you have taught me to memorize our old rules. Until today,how many years has it been?"Those who seek our family’s asset, we will fight back with five times the force.Those who seek our family’s social status, we will fight back with ten times the force.
Those who dared to destroy the Qin family, we will fight with all our strength, regardless ofdeath!Since the ancient times, all male members of the family had started to memorize these rules byheart at the age of three. In their life, at least, they had to memorize it more than ten thousandtimes. How would Qin Lianshan not remember?
When he saw that his father did not speak, Qin Wushuang continued: "The current situation isno longer a fight between the aristocratic seats and family assets. Instead, it is about thesurvival of the Qin family. Do you know what those three visitors of the Xi Men family said?"“What did they say?” A trace of anger and determination flashed across Qin Lianshan’s eyes."They said that if the Humble Qin did not give up on this Wealthy Class fight, then in ten days,they will definitely destroy the Qin family."Bang!Qin Lianshan suddenly slammed his fist down on the tea table and shook the tea set around.“Please calm down, Father. I want to ask you, if we had given up the Wealthy Class fight earlier,then with the tyranny of the Xi Men Feudal Lords and the Xu family, how could they not use theQin family as an example?”Qin Lianshan's expression froze and revealed a thoughtful look. His son, at such young age, hadalready analyzed the problem thoroughly. In the current situation, regardless of movingforward or backing down, the power of the enemies would not change. If they continued tofight for it, they would surely get revenge. If not, the Qin family would become civilians and gettrampled.When facing such a situation, what more did they need to consider?Qin Lianshan was someone that clearly hated losing. Earlier, he had hesitated because of themassive gap between the Qin and the Feudal Lords. For a time, it was difficult for him to acceptthis reality.After he understood, he slapped the table and lights dimmed in his eyes. He said with a hoarsevoice: "Those who dared to attempt to destroy the Qin family, we will fight back with all ourstrength, regardless of death! Wushuang, are you confident in the afternoon match?"Qin Wushuang leisurely responded: “Destroying the Xu family is like killing a dog! Father, when
the third match finishes in the afternoon, we Qin will return to being the Wealthy Class, we willall celebrate!”As soon as his words had dropped, Qin Wushuang suddenly smiled lightly: “We have visitors.”Outside the corridor, organized footsteps approached quickly that filled the ears.“Is Patriarch Qin here?”Qin Lianshan heard the voice and recognized it as that grizzly beard examiner of the Zhen WuHoly Place who had invited them to the banquet.“Haha, Elder Zhou, please come in.”Qin Wushuang opened the door and glanced outside. He saw twenty-four uniformed warriorsof the Zhen Wu Holy Place standing in formation behind Elder Zhou. Each and every one ofthem had an active and healthy physical figure, with deep and bright eyes. At a glance, theyappeared to be well-trained mighty warriors.Individually, they were at least Stage Four of Genuine Force. But when they moved in a group,they could wield even more power.“I heard something happened here?” Like a smile yet not a smile, Elder Zhou did not speakbluntly.
"Only three jumping clowns. When they heard about the Zhen Wu Holy Place, they already fledin terror," Qin Wushuang said with a light tone.Elder Zhou nodded and turned to close the door. He walked closer and lowered his voice andasked: "Xi Men Feudal Lords?"“Xi Men Feudal Lords!”“How are their strength?” Elder Zhou asked again.“One Stage Eight and two Stage Seven Warriors. Just these three people could slaughter theentire River County.”Initially, Qin Lianshan did not know the strength of those visitors. Although he had mentallyprepared himself, he was still astonished when he heard Qin Wushuang talking about it.Stage Eight of the Genuine Force?Only one Stage Eight Genuine Force Warrior was needed to build a Feudal Lord family! Could itbe, the Patriarch of the Xi Men family had come himself?The color on Elder Zhou's face slightly changed. He said thoughtfully: "These Xi Men Feudal
Lords are crossing a line. It seems that Xi Men Qian did not put Manager Huang's words in hismind. He dared to look down on the Zhen Wu Holy Place. In just these few years, the Xi MenFeudal Lords have become so arrogant that they overestimate their abilities."“There is something I want to ask Elder Zhou’s opinion on.”“Tell me.”"How many Stage Eight Genuine Force Warriors does that Xi Men family have?" Qin Wushuangwas most concerned about this matter. After all, you will never be defeated if you know yourselfand your enemy.“There are four Royal Territories in Bai Yue Country. Each of them governs the eight states. Andin each state, there is one Feudal Lord powerhouse. Plus the dozens of Feudal Lords from thefour Royal Territories and the capital, in total, there are about forty and fifty of them. Among allthe Feudal Lords in the country, the Xi Men are ranked at number five. Naturally, they were oneof the elite. Their Patriarch is a Stage Nine Genuine Force Warrior. At least three of them areStage Eight. As for the Stage Sevens, there is most likely more than ten of them."It seemed that there was indeed a Stage Nine of Genuine Force Warrior among the Xi Men.Although Qin Wushuang had mentally prepared himself, but he was still slightly surprised.However, he was not worried. What did it matter if there was a Stage Nine?“What are the Twelve Great Feudal Lords?”“The Twelve Great Feudal Lords are related to the Stage Nine Genuine Force Warriors. Amongthe dozens of Feudal families in the country, only twelve of them have Stage Nine Warriors.Thus, they were given the title “The Twelve Great Feudal Lords. Such a title is only given toshow that they are one level higher than the other Feudal families.”“I see.” Finally, Qin Wushuang understood the concept of the Twelve Great Feudal Lords.Suddenly, Elder Zhou smiled and asked with a strange tone: “There is one hour left until thethird match. The battle for the Wealthy Class, are you guys going to give up or continue?”“Why is Elder Zhou saying this?” Qin Wushuang was stunned.
“Are you guys scared of the threats posed by Stage Eight of Genuine Force Warrior?”Qin Wushuang stared at this Elder Zhou. After a few moments, he smiled bitterly: “Elder Zhou, Ialmost didn’t see through the meaning beneath your words.”
Then, he straightened his chest and said in a clear and loud voice: “Still that word—After thethird match, the Wealthy Xu will cease to exist!”When he heard these words, Elder Zhou rubbed his hand and also smiled happily: "Good, you donot fear the authority nor the threats. A man is the strongest when he follows through hisbelief. Wushuang, do not worry, although I cannot promise you anything else, the Zhen WuHoly Place will definitely ensure that it is a fair match, we will give you guys an entirelyunbiased competition environment!"Qin Wushuang nodded, yet, he dwelled on his words inwardly. Elder Zhou's words needed to betreated carefully. He only mentioned providing a fair environment for the Qin family in thismatch for the Wealthy Class. However, he did not speak of the things to come after.As for after the fight for the Wealthy Class seat, regarding the revenge from the Xi Men FeudalLords or whether the Zhen Wu Holy Place would interfere, he did not mention a word.Of course, Qin Wushuang did not hold a grudge against them. It was already enough since theZhen Wu Holy Place was willing to take such measures. After all, it was rare to for the Humblefamily to receive such special treatment.As a proud person, Qin Wushuang obviously did not care to beg the Zhen Wu Holy Place forprotection.Saviors did not exist. He must take the matter into his hands and use his own strength to clear apath. If he relied on outside help, it would only be an empty promise!Elder Zhou did not care about Qin Wushuang’s thought as he smiled: "It's almost time.Coincidentally, we are also going to the River Square to maintain order. How about we gotogether?"“No thanks, please go ahead, Elder Zhou.” Qin Wushuang politely declined.Elder Zhou showed an appreciative look toward Qin Wushuang. Then, he walked out. Inwardly,he admired this teenager's pride and gave a long sigh because he did want to help, but the waterwas too deep in the entire Bai Yue Country…He also knew the reason of why Qin Wushuang had refused to go with them. At this time, theQin family was not willingly to let other people think that they only came to the battle stageunder the protection of Zhen Wu Holy Place.It was an attitude. A type of confident attitude that would only appear among the elite warriors.It was strange to see this kind of attitude manifest in a youth!
