Chapter 13

C13 – The Reactions of Various Parties

There were four great families in the Rosewall City, and in name, they were all connected by blood. In reality, they all wanted each other to die. Whenever something happened, they would pay close attention to it.

In the study room of the Hee family, the patriarch, Hee Weijian, was frowning as he looked at the report in his hand. Deacon Hee Songyun was standing respectfully at the side.

Hee Songyun placed the report on the table and turned to Hee Weijian. He said, “I never thought that he would be so scheming. Even if it were you and me, we might not be able to endure being humiliated by others for so many years. If he doesn’t die, he will definitely become a great person in the future!”

Hee Songyun nodded in agreement and said, “But I have a question. He has a Flawed Root, and the whole city knows about it. How did he cultivate it?

“If he could cultivate it, he would only be at the Energy Refining Stage Level 5 now. Why did he expose himself at this time?”

Hee Weijian agreed and said, “Your two questions are very good. I feel that there must be someone behind him. And this person must be quite extraordinary. It’s a pity that I can’t personally investigate his bones. This matter of reversal of the bones has happened before.

“As for why he exposed himself at this time, I think he must have unimaginable benefits! He can endure for so many years, so his personality won’t have any problems!”

Hee Songyun thought for a moment and said in a low voice, “Even if his personality is extraordinary, his cultivation is still shallow. In this Hunting Festival, should we…” He made a head chopping gesture as he spoke!

Hee Weijian shook his head lightly and smiled meaningfully, “Do we need to do this kind of thing? There will definitely be someone who is more worried than us!”

Hee Songyun rolled his eyes and immediately understood Hee Weijian’s meaning. He stuck out his thumb in admiration, and the two of them looked at each other and laughed.

As the second largest family in the Rosewall, the Soong family had always hoped to strengthen their own strength and replace the Meng family as the number one overlord of the city. The patriarch and the elders were gathered in the main hall, discussing how to deal with the Hunting Festival!

Soong Hanjun suddenly said to everyone, “Have you heard about what happened in the Sheng family’s school field? What do you think about this Sheng Yuduo?”

The Third Elder, Soong Xiangsheng, said carelessly, “Isn’t it just Sheng Hao’s trash son? Is it worth us thinking about it?”

Second Elder Soong Jianguo retorted, “What you said is interesting. How can a trash defeat Sheng Yuxin? Can a trash withstand three palm strikes from the Energy Refining Stage?

At least at that time, we didn’t have such abilities. If this is considered trash, then what are we?”

Just as Soong Xiangsheng was about to retort, the Patriarch, Soong Mingjun, waved his hand to stop him. Soong Mingjun said, “He is just a kid at the fifth level of Qi Refinement. How much trouble can he cause?”

This time, Sheng Hao’s three sons would all participate in the Hunting Festival. I had already summoned back Little Jian. Originally, I only planned to kill his two sons and leave him with a piece of trash.

“However, since this trash already has some ability, then let’s get rid of all of them.”

When the three elders heard the Patriarch say this, their eyes lit up. The First Elder hurriedly said, “So it was Little Jian who wanted to come back. That’s great. With the death of the Shaozhu of the Sheng family, the Patriarch’s bloodline will have no successor.

“The other branches will definitely fight for this position. At that time, we can just sit back and reap the benefits. As long as we can take over the Sheng family, the Soong family will be able to dominate the entire Rosewall City.”

The Second Elder seemed to be worried, but when he saw that everyone was in high spirits, he did not want to say anything bad. He thought about it carefully and did not think that Sheng Yuduo could cause any trouble.

As the number one family in the Rosewall City, the Meng family was the undisputed overlord! It had always hoped to unify the city and swallow the other three families.

However, the four families each had their own hidden trump cards. Although the Meng family had tried to sow discord many times, every time they faced the Meng family, the other three families would unite.

Meng Huoyang was standing alone in the stone pavilion in the backyard, looking up at the clouds in the sky. A middle-aged man in a wheelchair was playing chess alone on the stone table.

With a smile on his face, Meng Huoyang said, “This Hunting Festival will be the most interesting one. According to the insider’s report, Soong Mingjun has already summoned back his son, Soong Wen, who was in the Xuan Tian Sword Sect. It seems that he has a big plan this time!”

The middle-aged man was Tao Wei, the chief strategist of Meng Huoyang. He lightly stroked the white chess piece and took a serious step. He picked up another black chess piece and smiled, “We can easily guess what Soong Mingjun is trying to do. This time, Sheng Hao’s son has all participated in this meeting!”

He was clearly trying to make Sheng Hao lose all his sons! Ever since Soong Wen had entered the Xuan Tian Sword Sect, the Soong family’s desire to replace us had become even stronger. However, this gave us an opportunity. We can split the three great families and take them down one by one.”

Meng Huoyang twirled his beard and smiled slightly. “Over the past few years, the Sheng family has been stuck in the same place. It is inevitable that others will have their own ideas! No matter what everyone thinks, I am happy to see this situation.”

Tao Wei’s gaze was deep as he said, “Comparatively speaking, I am more interested in that trash son of the Sheng family, Sheng Yuduo. I personally checked his bone structure when he was born. It is a Flawed Root, so there is no mistake.

However, he was actually able to reach the Energy Refining Stage Level 5. This was completely beyond my expectations. Either he has someone behind him, or he has some fortuitous encounter. No matter what, we should investigate it.”

Meng Huoyang nodded in agreement, but then he smiled and said, “My little sister has already sent word that my nephew will conveniently kill him in this Hunting Festival to solve our worries!”

A light flashed across Tao Wei’s eyes, but he did not say anything. He threw the chess piece in his hand to the side and watched Meng Huoyang walk away step by step.

Tao Wei gently patted his hands, and a black shadow appeared beside him. Tao Wei whispered, “Tell the sect master that the person he is looking for might be hiding in the Sheng family of Rosewall.” The black shadow bowed and then disappeared!

Tao Wei looked at the chess game on the table and sighed softly, “Reversal of the Bones, Shura Descends to the World!” After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and all the pieces returned to their original places.

Sheng Yuduo was sleeping on the bed at this time. Although the Healing Medicine had cured his injuries, the fatigue in his soul was not that easy to eliminate. He seemed to have had a good dream, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face!
