Chapter 169
In Yin Jiuxiao's memory, the family that got the eighth place in the previous life was not the Chen family, but the Wu family from Xizhou. So the Lin family was tricked by Suye Xianshan just like the Chen family in the previous life, but this time the beneficiary was the more promising Diemeng Medicine Store.
With Chu Cang's personality, he would never allow one aristocratic family to dominate the world.
The relationship between the Lin family and the Chen family is too close to be separated. Lin Zhongtian is an eighth-star heavenly rank, and the Liuli two-handed blade has a powerful spiritual essence. If he breaks through to the ninth star one day, it would be a disaster to raise a tiger.
Chu Cang certainly knew that Die Meng had reached an agreement with the Shen family and Fuxin Miaofa, but that was only a yellow-grade elixir. He knew that Die Meng had a backup plan. Yu Yinyin and Medicine Master Chen Banyu were both extremely cunning people, and they held the more important Xuan-grade elixir in their hands. It was indeed so.
Moreover, this piece of news was revealed to him alone by Yu Yinyin. These pills have not been sold to others yet, and the Shen family and Fuxin Miaofa are even less aware of it.
In addition to this, Diemeng has much greater advantages than the Chen family.
This newly emerged force was established by Yu Yinyin in Beizhou. Beizhou was a ruin, and it was rare for her to get a hold of a few powerful forces. As soon as she had the ability, she left Beizhou to seek development outside.
This kind of force has no foundation, and the spiritual essences of its spiritual masters are all kinds of weird, and it is even more difficult to have any deep origins. The direction of development is elixir. For Chu Cang, supporting it poses little threat, but the benefits are great.
Die Meng has no real support, so she will have to find one sooner or later. Su Ye Xianshan is the best choice. For Chu Cang, the show of goodwill in the form of Xuan-grade elixir is a signal.
He actually didn't take Fu Xin Miao Fa and Bai Lu Zong Heng seriously. In Chu Cang's eyes, this spiritual world would always be the world of combat spiritualists. That's why the other two masters were always suppressed by him.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry when the deal failed at the beginning. He just felt that Lin Qingshuang was really useless. When Die Meng entered the aristocratic family, he would have many ways to control them.
Now that Die Meng was showing some goodwill, he deliberately leaned towards her and even made some secret moves, just wanting to do them a favor and send them up. Yu Yinyin and the others would sooner or later find out whose words were heard in this area.
He was even more pleased to see Diemeng and the Shen family reach a cooperation, as it might help him further control the somewhat independent Shen family.
I heard that Shen Luoying was about to wake up. Lin Zhongtian and even Chen Nanke knew exactly what she was thinking. As long as this person was there, there was no need to worry about Lin Zhongtian making any mistakes. Besides, Lin Qingshuang was still in his hands. What could the Lin and Chen families do to him? He was just an obedient person.
But if Chu Cang were to tell the truth, the Chen family was indeed no match for the other family in terms of strength. Even without his interference, Die Meng would have won.
Although the patriarch of the Chen family is also a Heavenly Rank Seven Star, his combat awareness is far inferior to Fu Qingping, and the mutual coordination is even worse. It is really unfair for the Chen family to lose this time.
"you!"
Chen Nanke was furious, but there was nothing he could do.
He was stopped by Lin Zhongtian.
Chu Cang has always been such a person.
Once you get on this boat, you have to bear the consequences.
So, with the tacit consent of all parties, Die Meng defeated all the other parties in the battle of noble families. The finals of noble family competitions have many forms. Although the Chen family lost this time, there are other events. However, whether it is a duel or grabbing the flag, or even the voting for the existing elder seats in the alliance later, Die Meng is far ahead, and her advantage is getting bigger and bigger.
In the battle between the aristocratic families, the so-called strength on the field is only the factor with the smallest influence, and the effort lies off the field. Lin Qinghen knew this early on.
After dealing with Fu Xin Miao Fa and the Shen family, he used bait to lure them up to Su Ye Xian Mountain. Even the new leader of the alliance was inclined to lean towards it - because of Chen Banyu.
This medicine master who was once wanted helped the current leader kill his strongest competitor. Once the old leader closed his eyes, there was no need for him to pretend anymore and he had a good chat with Chen Banyu.
Under the multiple influences, Die Meng's progress was naturally smooth and she had almost no obstacles along the way. Seeing that she was about to get a position in the aristocratic family, almost everyone who attended the meeting had this in mind.
But when Shen Luofei looked at it, she always felt that there was something indescribable strange.
He could have predicted that Diemeng would be successful, but the Yin family's attitude was really hard to explain.
Yin Hengxie has not arrived yet. The only person who came here is Yin Miao, a two-star heavenly rank person. When he came to ask for shelter from the Shen family, he said that he came here just to protect the dignity of the family. However, when the fight really started, he dodged faster than anyone else, as if he had given up.
Yin Miao's explanation seemed to be well-reasoned. He just said that his master's old injury relapsed and the house was in chaos. It was impossible for many people to come, so he had to give up. But Shen Luofei saw that he looked very different from when he came to find her.
Naturally, it was difficult for the Yin family to attract any attention at the event. Many people simply forgot about them and didn't even know that the Yin family was attending the event.
Such situations always made Shen Luofei feel that he came to her last time just to ask for a promise and test her attitude, and in fact the Shen family could not help much.
However, as time went by, Shen Luofei had no time to take care of them.
The Shen family has received good news during this period. First, we heard that Shen Luoying had responded. Her fingers could move and she would wake up soon, possibly in the next few days. At the same time, Shen Jingxun of the Shen family also performed very well in the Dawn Competition and had already made it into the top ten.
The battle between the noble families ended in an upset, and Dawn Athletics was also unstable.
This kind of serious competition can only be decided by the on-field confrontation, and other factors have little impact.
Leng Qiuyue had taken a fancy to that team early on. Although she did not hold out much hope at the beginning and thought that they would not go far, she was ready to comfort them. However, she did not expect that Rong Yu and Ding Lian would fight their way up and now make it into the top ten.
But maybe it was because of good luck, as the previous draws did not allow them to draw characters that were too difficult to deal with, and the other five players took over in the team competition, giving them enough rest time at several important points, which is why they seemingly "difficultly" made it to the top ten.
The dark horse is indeed a dark horse, but the most eye-catching person in the whole game is still Chu Wei.
Every opponent could not last more than twenty moves under his hands. This man had a bad temper, but he was indeed very strong. Now as a five-star Earth Rank, he actually had some of the aura of a Heaven Rank when he started fighting. It seemed that it was only a matter of time before he inherited Chu Cang's mantle.
Since Diemeng's victory was set in stone, Leng Qiuyue's focus became more on Chenxi Athletics. She watched every game, but every time she finished watching, she couldn't help but shake her head.
Rong Yu and Ding Lian have very high spiritual powers, but they lack spiritual essence.
Rong Yu's sword looked too ordinary, and Ding Lian's spiritual marrow looked strange in shape. It was not so obvious during the general election in Xizhou, but as he thought, the disadvantage of the spiritual marrow was even more of a hindrance in the finals.
They had an advantage in the team competition. After all, there were no strong opponents, so taking first place shouldn't be a problem. But the individual competition was...
Especially in the first game after the top ten were selected, Ding Lian from the team drew a very difficult opponent - Lin Qingshuang.
Lin Qingshuang has successfully broken through to the three-star level of the Earth Rank. With the same spiritual power, Ding Lian has no chance of winning.
Leng Qiuyue sighed and lamented the result of the draw as soon as she saw it, and Lin Qingshuang thought the same.
She also discovered recently that the Chen family suddenly lost the favor of Su Ye Xian Shan, and the position of the eighth family was taken by the unknown Die Meng.
She was determined to marry Chu Wei, and it was impossible for the Lin family to leave the sphere of influence of Su Ye Xianshan. Lin Zhongtian didn't tell her anything more, which made Lin Qingshuang more eager to stand out.
The Chen family is unreliable, so she can only rely on herself. In this morning competition, even if she can't get first place, she must get second place.
This is the only way to get Sect Master Chu to turn his attention back to the Lin family, and Chu Wei is also watching today's game.
He soon found out who was worthy of him.
As for Ding Lian... this team had given her a bad time before, and she had long been holding a grudge against them. She also vowed that she would never join Suye Xianshan or the Lin family, and recently she has been getting close to Fuxin Miaofa, so she is of no use to him.
Ever since Ding Lian and Lin Qingshuang came on the stage, Leng Qiuyue had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
In the Dawn Competition, you cannot use elixirs, but you can use bound spiritual tools, but no more than two. It is good enough for a ground-level spiritualist to bind two spiritual tools and use them well. After all, the more spiritual tools, the better. Bringing too many will affect the use of the true spiritual essence. If it is suitable enough, just one will do.
As soon as Lin Qingshuang came on the court and started to move, Leng Qiuyue immediately stood up and her face suddenly became much uglier.
As soon as she came up, she used a killing move!
The Dawn Competition is a semi-death duel. If one side admits defeat or is kicked off the field, it loses. However, it is more cruel than ordinary competitions in that if a side is accidentally killed by the opponent before admitting defeat, the opponent does not need to take responsibility.
The Liuli two-handed blade was known for its murderous aura, and the curved hook on the blade was good at taking people's lives. In particular, Leng Qiuyue also discovered that there was a faint blood color on Lin Qingshuang's blade. This was the effect of a spiritual weapon, and she recognized it.
The death lock that Lin Zhongtian used when he was young is very suitable for the Lin family's spiritual essence. It can provide a special blood-sucking effect for the Liuli two-handed blade. Once hit by the sword, the person is in great danger.
Why do this!
Lin Qingshuang's cruelty was beyond her imagination. It was just a duel between young people, why bother to kill each other!
Lin Qinghen was also watching the game today. They were all family members, so he was definitely concerned, but there were too many people watching and no one noticed the Yin family. They were in a remote corner, and Yin Jiuxiao was still pretending to be blind, staying by his side in a weak manner. Yin Miao, who was beside him, recognized the blood on the blade as soon as he saw it, and turned around to tell them.
Lin Qinghen's face tensed up under the veil. Yin Jiuxiao seemed to sense that something was wrong with his aura, so he reached out and held his hand, saying soothingly, "Don't be afraid."
If Lin Qingshuang fights against the current Ding Lian, she will be the one who loses.
Ding Lian and Yin Rongyu have always kept things to themselves.
Rong Yu did not reveal his Jiuxiao Jueyun sword technique. He had used ordinary sword moves in the previous competition. His sword technique had been specially taught by Yin Jiuxiao during this period of time. Ding Lian did not reveal that his spiritual marrow was poisonous.
Naturally, no one here could recognize that his spiritual essence was called the Ten Thousand Poison Spider Blade.
Moreover, before this, these two people did not carry any spiritual weapons. This is why Leng Qiuyue felt that they had a hard time fighting. It seemed that they had won barely before. There was always some luck involved because the two of them did not exert their greatest strength.
Especially Ding Lian, the colorful spider he harvested from the ruins had been completely absorbed, from the spirit core to the spirit weapon made by Ling Guan himself later, but it had never been used before.
The biggest enhancement of these things is poison, and it also improves Ding Lian's control over poison.
Lin Qingshuang slashed with the knife, and Ding Lian did not avoid it completely. A long scar immediately appeared on his arm, and the blood did not stop immediately.
But this man did not run away. He paused for a moment and instead came forward. Lin Qingshuang saw his face. Suddenly, a strange smile appeared on this man's face, which usually had no expression.
"I came here just for you."
She heard Ding Lian say in a low voice.
"That's it? Haha... your Lin family is really not that good."
Then, Lin Qingshuang saw that his ordinary black spider blade began to change color, becoming a deep purple-black color. Some tiny burrs began to appear on the blade, and the tip of the blade became sharp. With every breath, the air around him was suddenly filled with a strange fragrance.
