Chapter 23 Attribution of Law Enforcement Power

The rules are simple.

Each of the three families sends twenty people to enter the border area between Cliff Forest and Dark Rose Forest to find or steal fifty-five tokens that were thrown into the area beforehand. The means are not limited. After leaving Cliff Forest, the family with the most tokens will gain control of Liuhua City.

These tokens are specially treated; they not only have a slight effect of attracting beasts, but they also disintegrate on their own after a certain time, so there is no need to retrieve any tokens that have not been found.

This competition is also known as the "Flower Snatching Game".

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the Cliff Forest. The sixty participants in the Flower-Snatching Game had entered the competition area one after another. The heads of the three families and several elders stood in the air, watching over and supervising to ensure fairness while also paying attention to the safety of their clansmen.

Quite a few demons gathered together to join in the fun, and some even took the opportunity to set up stalls.

Hua Xian couldn't resist discussing it with Su Yu.

"Didn't I mention some of the things that happened to the Yu family before? Actually, there's more to it than that."

"The Yu family tried to scheme against us before, but my father and the Jin family head have already retaliated. It's unlikely that the Yu family will win this year's Flower Order competition."

Su Yu raised an eyebrow, asking with interest, "How will you retaliate?"

He studied how the demon realm dealt with their enemies.

Hua Xian stood crookedly and casually said, "According to what I got out of my father, they should have joined forces with the Jin family and taken advantage of the riots caused by Yu Ronglan to tear down a large part of the Yu family's assets."

"Now, not only are several members of the Yu family sick and unable to participate, but the resources for their intensive cultivation are also likely to be very scarce."

"Hmph." A cold sneer rang out behind the three demons. "It's still uncertain who will be in charge of Liuhua City in the future."

Hua Xian tilted her head and looked over, revealing a bright, provocative smile.

"I'm so sorry, I was just telling the truth, but Yu Jiafei Mo overheard me."

"You!" The demon couldn't help but take a step forward and raise his hand to strike, but was stopped by his clansmen beside him. Thinking that he couldn't ruin the family's important affairs, he gritted his teeth and uttered, "Just you wait!"

Hua Xian didn't even turn her head. She pulled Su Yu and Feng Shier to switch places, and deliberately said loudly, "What bad luck! Let's switch places."

Su Yu stopped, glancing thoughtfully and subtly in the direction where the Yu family demons had gathered.

They were well aware of the Yu family's current predicament of being suppressed by the other two families, yet they were clearly confident in the Yu family's control over Liuhua City.

Does the Yu family possess a secret weapon that could help them achieve victory, or do they have other methods to directly control Liuhua City?

Is there something they're relying on?

Su Yu wanted to see how the Yu family patriarch and elders, who were suspended in mid-air, would behave.

Basically, if you are careful when using your divine sense during the Golden Core stage, you should not be detected.

But just as his divine sense approached the head of the Yu family, the head of the Yu family, who had been completely unmoved, suddenly showed a hint of surprise and panic, looking around.

Beside him, an elder who was completely unaware of Su Yu's divine sense came to his side and asked in a low voice what had happened.

Su Yu quickly withdrew her divine sense when the family head's emotions changed.

It seems we were still too reckless. I didn't expect the Yu family head to be so sensitive to divine sense.

Su Yu turned around and chatted casually with Hua Xian and Feng Shier, seemingly unconcerned.

The Yu family head sensed the slight fluctuation, and his mind could no longer settle down. He subtly glanced at the demons from the other families, then slightly tilted his head towards the elder who had asked the question. His lips moved silently a few times, transmitting his thoughts:

The elder's expression changed, but he quickly regained his composure and asked:

The head of the Yu family had an uncertain look in his eyes:

The rest of the match went smoothly. Su Yu watched the images of the arena displayed on the Transmission Stone, and quietly learned how to make her behavior more in line with the style of the Demon Clan.

As expected, the Yu family, lacking manpower and facing joint exclusion from the Hua and Jin families, was at a disadvantage in the flower-grabbing contest.

As the flower-picking contest neared its end and the outcome was already decided, many demons within the Jin and Hua families began to express their resentment and provoke the demons from both families.

However, it seemed a bit fake.

He looks distracted.

Su Yu looked away, instinctively feeling that the Yu family was up to no good.

The others in the air have landed, waiting for the contestants to come out so that the number of tokens can be counted.

Half an incense stick's time passed, and not a single demon emerged.

The projection stone has expired and its effect has ended; no one knows what's inside.

The murmurs among the demons grew louder.

The head of the Hua family frowned deeply and said to the other two families, "I'll go up and take a look."

After saying that, she was about to take off, but a sinister remark from the head of the Yu family stopped her in her tracks.

"You lot should worry about yourselves first!"

The ground suddenly began to tremble uncontrollably. From the direction of Liuhua City, several scarlet beams of light rose from the ground around the city, spreading out and merging to form a giant dome that enveloped the entire city.

At the same time, several silent black figures appeared and surrounded everyone present.

"Haha!" The head of the Yu family couldn't help but laugh out loud, then turned to the leader of the group of shadowy figures and said, "You must be Lord Dao?"

The leader was dressed like the other shadowy figures, except he wore a gilded token around his waist. He slowly walked towards the Yu family head. Upon closer inspection, everyone realized he possessed the cultivation of a peak Golden Core cultivator, causing all those present to change their expressions.

However, while the other demons were shocked and angry, filled with apprehension, the Yu family demons wore expressions of joy, basking in the pride of finally getting their revenge and surpassing the other demons.

Lord Dao calmly nodded to the family head and said, "According to the deal between you and my master, we will temporarily obey the orders of the Yu family."

"Good, good!" The head of the Yu family clapped his hands and laughed, then suddenly stopped laughing and said coldly to the other two families, "Then, please clear the obstacles for the Yu family!"

Seeing that things were going wrong, the other demons hurriedly scattered. The Yu family patriarch and elders didn't even glance at them. Apart from the demons from the smaller families below the three major families, these rogue cultivators could escape without consequence; it wouldn't affect them anyway.

At this moment, they must establish their absolute authority within the family!

The elders with higher cultivation levels present all shielded the younger disciples behind them, glaring angrily at the Yu family.

"Yu Conglang! Your Yu family is breaking the rules of Liuhua City!"

At this moment, the head of the Yu family was in no hurry to have the shadowy figures make a move. He took two steps forward with his hands behind his back, a forced smile playing on his lips: "Rules? From this day forward, the Yu family will be the rule of Liuhua City!"

"Our ancestors must have been confused to come up with this ridiculous 'peaceful competition' flower-grabbing game!"

"In this world, strength has always been the deciding factor! I, the patriarch, have merely led the Yu family down the right path!"

In a flash, emanating a dense demonic aura, a cold, gleaming sword from the shadowy figure swept across the encirclement.
