4169 Just an ungrateful dog.
However, they were also a little suspicious. Did the Ling family really have the power to fight back?
“Ling Chuxi, you’re still the young master of the Ling family. You shouldn’t talk about such things without any evidence.” Zeng Zhengping said sternly. Of course, he also knew about the dispute between the Ling family and the Yuwen family. In his heart, he also looked down on the Yuwen family. However, now that he was planning to join forces to deal with Ling Chuxi, how could he let the Yuwen family make a fool of themselves?
“Don’t you know whether I’m talking nonsense or not? The five spots for the great adjudication election were decided by the domain Lords of the Qing-Yun realm forty years ago. It’s just that twenty years ago, my Ling family encountered some changes and couldn’t send any suitable people to participate in the selection, so we temporarily gave up four of the spots.
Originally, the clans would’ve chosen the most suitable clans to distribute the slots, but as far as I know, three of the slots have fallen into the hands of another clan in the past twenty years. To put it bluntly, they’re just a dog raised by my Ling family. Now that my Ling family wants to take back those spots, we’ll take something that belongs to the owner from the dog we raised. Even though this dog can’t be raised, the owner’s things are the owner’s things, so can’t we take them back?” Ling Chuxi said without any mercy.
Ling Chuxi had long since investigated the ins and outs of this matter. In fact, the Ling family did not give up these few spots on their own initiative. It was only because the Yuwen family and the Jin family had joined forces to suppress the Ling family that the Ling family had no choice but to give up.
Of course, the Ling family had said that they could not send any suitable people, but the Yuwen family and the Jin family had spread the news to the public to show off their power. As expected, the Yuwen and Jin families ‘reputation had been greatly boosted from then on. No one dared to think about getting four spots, and it had fallen into their hands for a few consecutive years.
Yuwen Siyuan’s expression changed drastically. His family members were well aware of the clan’s scandal. Usually, if no one mentioned it, everyone could pretend that they did not know anything. However, Ling Chuxi had mentioned it in front of so many people, and she had even said it so ruthlessly. She had even scolded the Yuwen family as if they were dogs that could not be raised. It was obvious that she wanted to embarrass the Yuwen family.
“Ling Chuxi, you’re courting death!” Yuwen Siyuan was indeed shrewd, but he couldn’t help but fly into a rage at this moment. He grabbed the hilt of his sword.
Ling Chuxi’s eyebrows twitched and the corners of her mouth curled into a cold smile.
Didn’t Yuwen Siyuan want to anger Ling Zhongxiao and force him to make a move, and then use Zeng Zhengping to embarrass the Ling family? Right now, she was giving them a taste of their own medicine. However, humiliating the Yuwen family in front of so many people was much better than the small scene just now.
Of course, it would be even better if this guy was forced to make a move and was directly driven out of the city amongst the clouds. Looking at Yuwen Siyuan’s furious expression, Ling Chuxi felt that she had overestimated him.
Ling Chuxi’s fingers were also placed on the hilt of her sword. Even in the face of Yuwen Siyuan’s rage, she still could not see through his cultivation and did not dare to be careless. Scamming others was a good thing, but it wouldn’t be good if he were to be scammed too.
“Alright, alright. Ling Chuxi, you’ve got some guts to actually humiliate my Yuwen family!” To Ling Chuxi’s disappointment, although Yuwen Siyuan was trembling with anger, he did not make a move in the end. He stared at Ling Chuxi as he spoke.
