Chapter 74

Jing Chunyu was burning with anger, but several elders felt an indescribable satisfaction in their hearts.

Although the elders of the Jing family appeared to be quite amiable on the surface, there were also struggles behind the scenes.

Everyone wanted their lineage to be stronger than others and to receive more family resources for cultivation.

The Jing Luoying who was just severely injured by Jing Yan belonged to Jing Chunyu's lineage. Under normal circumstances, with Jing Luoying's strength, he should have secured a spot in the finals. Now, he could no longer participate in the competition, and this extra spot would give the others more opportunities.

Seeing Jing Chunyu's gloomy face, several elders felt secretly delighted. Of course, they did not show it on their faces.

"Jing Yan defeated Jing Luoying and became the new champion!" At the edge of the arena, Jing Shiyu announced loudly again.

At this moment, two guards came over and carried the severely injured Jing Luoying away.

In the family competition, the struggle was intense, and getting injured was a normal occurrence.

Generally speaking, as long as no one died, it wasn't a big deal. The family's higher-ups wouldn't make a fuss over it.

But if someone died, it would be a serious matter. If it was a malicious killing, the family would impose corresponding punishments on the killer. If it was a situation where not using heavy hands would result in serious injury or death, then the killing would be considered self-defense.

On the arena, Jing Yan slightly narrowed his eyes, waiting for others to challenge him.

However, under the current circumstances, ordinary people probably wouldn't dare to challenge Jing Yan.

Just being defeated was still okay, as there would still be a chance to challenge others. But if one was injured like Jing Luoying, that would be a tragedy.

Everyone could see that Jing Yan had the confidence to just defeat Jing Luoying, and Jing Luoying's severe injuries were definitely intentional on Jing Yan's part.

On the high platform in the square!

A guard hurriedly walked up, his face slightly panicked.

"Clan Leader, Elders!" The guard bowed and said in a low voice.

This guard was a personal guard of the Great Elder Jing Chunyu.

"Is there something wrong?" Clan Leader Jing Chengye frowned and asked.

The family competition was ongoing, and there were many guests present. If the guard had nothing important, he definitely shouldn't be on this high platform.

"There... there is something! Great Elder..." The guard hesitated, his expression changing.

"What is it?" The Great Elder asked in a low, deep voice.

This guard was his personal guard. When Jing Chunyu saw the guard, he guessed that something might be wrong.

"That... Great Elder..." The guard was hesitant, and with so many people around, he couldn't easily go to the Great Elder's side to whisper.

"Say it if there's something to say. What are you hiding?" The Great Elder glared.

Because Jing Yan had injured Jing Luoying, his anger hadn't subsided, and he certainly didn't have a good face to give the guard.

"Yes!" The guard's body trembled.

"It's about the young miss. The young miss... she was humiliated by Jing Yan!" The guard said, lowering his head.

Since you asked me to say it, I will, the guard thought.

"What?" Jing Chunyu's face changed.

The young miss the guard mentioned was definitely his daughter, Jing Yujin. He only had one daughter.

Jing Chengye and the others also looked over, having heard what the guard said. They all knew the guard was talking about Jing Yujin.

What's going on?

How did Jing Yan humiliate Jing Yujin?

Although Jing Yujin was quite beautiful, she was too old for Jing Yan, right?

"Cough! This... is there a misunderstanding?" Jing Chengye coughed, his expression strange.

Many people present had the same thought. Even Jing Chunyu, upon hearing the guard's words, immediately thought of the same thing.

"Great Elder, the young miss wants you to come over." The guard continued.

"Damn it! If she has something to say, why doesn't she come here? Why do I have to go to her?" Jing Chunyu said angrily.

He was the Great Elder of the Jing family, a person of high status. He was currently presiding over the family competition, and his daughter wanted him to leave to see her.

This was clearly a loss of face in front of the Clan Leader and the other elders. If it were in private, it wouldn't be a problem.

"Great Elder, the young miss is not in a position to come over!" The guard looked worried.

He didn't really want to come and relay the message, but he had no choice. As a personal guard of Jing Chunyu, if he offended his daughter, would he still have a good life? So, he had to come despite his reluctance.

"Hmph!"

"Clan Leader, I'll be right back. This girl is becoming more and more out of line." Jing Chunyu said helplessly to Jing Chengye.

He was also nervous, not knowing what had happened to Jing Yujin or why she said she was humiliated by Jing Yan.

"Jing Yan, that damn little punk!" Jing Chunyu cursed in his heart and left the high platform with the guard.

"What exactly happened?"

After leaving, Jing Chunyu immediately asked the guard.

"I... I don't know how to explain it." The guard was really at a loss.

How should he say it?

Should he say that the young miss was beaten into a pig's head by Jing Yan?

Seeing the guard's expression, Jing Chunyu's pace quickened. At this moment, Jing Yujin was at his residence.

"Whoosh, whoosh!" Jing Chunyu rushed to his residence and then charged inside.

He was naturally worried about his only precious daughter.

"Yujin? Where is Yujin?"

The Great Elder entered his courtyard, his eyes scanning the area, and he shouted loudly.

"Father! Father!" A woman with a pig's head on her neck, sobbing, rushed out of the room.

Jing Chunyu's face turned serious when he saw this woman.

"Damn it, you scared me to death!" Jing Chunyu roared in his heart after seeing the woman's face clearly.

"Damn it, where is my daughter?" Seeing the pig's head rush towards him, Jing Chunyu quickly dodged to the side. Then, he angrily questioned the guard who had followed him in.

"Father, I am Yujin!" The pig's head stood there, looking at Jing Chunyu.

"What?" Jing Chunyu was stunned again.

He could now recognize the voice; it was indeed his daughter Yujin's. Moreover, the clothes the person was wearing seemed to be the ones his daughter often wore.

"Great Elder, this is the young miss." The guard's voice was like a mosquito's.

Jing Chunyu took a step forward, stood next to Jing Yujin, and stared at her face, examining it carefully for a while.

"Yujin, what happened to you? What happened to your face? Ah?" Jing Chunyu took a deep breath, his whole body trembling, and asked in disbelief.

What happened to his daughter? What had happened?

"Father! You... you must avenge me! I... I can't show my face to anyone anymore!" Jing Yujin covered her face and cried.
