The Cool Breeze family's mines were invaded by a group of unknown robbers.
He had been recaptured by a warrior of the Louis family who happened to pass by.
They had changed hands overnight.
What a coincidence.
All the higher-ups of the Qing Feng family were gathered in the meeting hall. Lin Ke was unexpectedly called to the side to listen.
"Let's see," Old Man Wood was the first to open his mouth to break the oppressive atmosphere. "Obviously, the group that Little Six met was the so-called unknown bandit group. The warriors of the Louis family helped us regain our ownership of the mine, which is within expectations."
"Uncle, the Louis family is obviously provoking the Qing Feng family's bottom line. It is impossible for them to not know the importance of mining veins to the Qing Feng family." Uncle, the Louis family is obviously provoking the Qing Feng family's bottom line. Linke's first uncle, Kent, said with a frown.
"Big brother, the Louis Family isn't some random cat or dog. Have you considered the loss of the Qing Feng Family when attacking back?" Moreover, no matter what kind of actions they took this time, on the surface, they were the righteous side in everyone's eyes. Only by recklessly taking action would we become the moral side that was in the wrong, "Second Uncle Leonard retorted.
First uncle Kent did not immediately fight back. Instead, he frowned and began to ponder.
"If the lode can be returned to the Qingfeng family, it will be easy. Even if we lose some prestige, it will still be worth it to spend some time and energy. I'm afraid …" His third uncle, Mendel, who was originally the most confident in the family, became the most pessimistic of the three.
First Uncle Kent and Second Uncle Leonard frowned in silence.
After a long time, Second Uncle, Leonard, somewhat uncertainly, looked at Old Man Wood and said, "Uncle, could it be …" "Could it be that the Louis family dares to openly challenge the Qing Feng family?"
Eldest Uncle Kent and Third Uncle Mendel were shocked!
Sigh … Up until now, you still can't believe that the Qing Feng family will be challenged, can you?" He slowly got up and walked in front of the three people, without caring about the other higher-ups or even the juniors, and scolded them, "Thirty years have passed, and you three brothers are also getting older and older, from the prime of your lives to the prime of your lives, bringing chaos to your family. Relying on your so-called thousand years of heritage to fool yourself, your eyes can't hold anything more than the Qing Feng family, right? No one knew how the Louis family, which everyone looked down upon, had developed over the years, right? However, the Qing Feng Clan of the Brilliant Willow City has already reached the stage of Huge Strength, yet they dare to openly rebel. Do you think that they don't matter to us at all? "" No, no. "Now that the reputation of the Qing Feng Clan has been publicly bought by others, they feel that it's just a small matter to suppress the prestige of the clan. What a joke, the three of you go out and ask around. Does the Qing Feng Clan still have authority in Liu City?!" He quickly walked to the third generation three brothers who were sitting on the other side with their heads lowered and asked, "Malun, you are in charge of the family's foreign trade. Tell me, how does the Liu City, the partner who was able to show enough humility in front of your father, Kent, treat you now?! Morris, you're in charge of the defense of the family. Tell me, how many of the cars from the Qingfeng family that the guards of Liu City would not dare to question are now under compulsory inspection?! "Michael, you've been hanging out in Liucheng City for the longest time. Tell me, can the citizens of Liucheng maintain their respect for the family after the destruction of the Qingfeng family's fleet?" The old man looked at the three men who had no power to refute and then turned around to face the three white-haired old men who had already stood up with grief written all over their faces, "What is it that's covering your eyes?!" And what had broken the friendship that a brother should have? "Tell me?!
The three brothers saw the complicated look in each other's eyes and bowed deeply in the direction of old man Wood at the same time.
All the higher-ups and disciples of the family stood up and bowed.
There was apology and determination.
"I, Wood Breeze, still have a hundred years of life left," Old Man Wood didn't intend to let everyone rise, "But whether the Qing Feng family will rise in the next hundred years will depend on whether you can use your lives to protect the dignity of the clan, and see what is carved on the ancestors' tombstones. A family's honor comes from the glory of its history, but whether or not to continue this kind of honor will depend on the unity and hard work of the descendants of the Qing Feng family.
"Kent, Leonard, Mendel! Walk over to your old friends. The Windy family will never expect them to stand up and carry the beam, but at least they can't drag you down at a time like this, "shouted old man Wood.
The three elders answered in unison, "Yes!"
"Malun, Maurice, Michael, shrink the family's external affairs. Before this fated collision ends, we'll stick to our own rules. The family's defense and vigilance level will be raised to the highest. Ring the death bell!"
"Yes sir!" The three middle-aged men shouted in unison. They had never had such a tacit understanding that it caused their hearts to be filled with pride!
"Everyone, hold on to your positions and hold onto the final glory of the Qing Feng Clan!" This battle shall be won! "
"Yes sir!"
Everyone roared!
When everyone had left, all of them left in a flashy manner.
The slightly exhausted old man Wood said as he patted the shoulder of the only person who had nothing else to do, Lin Ke.
"Cohen, my grandson, Grandfather only let you watch this show to let you know that the descendants of the Cool Breeze family are not evil," he slightly smiled and sighed, "If …" If everything goes badly, Grandfather will sacrifice this hundred years of effort to protect this place. A hundred years from now, if you have the ability, Grandfather will have the nerve to ask you to protect the Qing Feng family. "
Link was silent.
Then he nodded heavily.
"Grandfather, are you really determined to fight against the Louis family? Would the loss be too shocking then? "After all, he's not a small noble like the Fei Li family. I heard from Cousin Donna that many outstanding disciples of the Louis family have appeared in recent years. Even if he manages to win in a hasty battle, it would definitely be a setback for the Qing Feng family!" Linke asked, a little puzzled.
"Hehe," Old Man Wood was stunned for a moment, then laughed and patted Linke's head, "Foolish child, the battles in noble families are not always as fierce as the battles between the Moutes and Philip families. On the contrary, most battles don't have situations where a fight to the death can take place. "In the history of Liu City, the most commonly used method was to have a public fight with the nobles," Wood sat back in his seat and gestured for Lin Ke to sit in the chair closest to him. "The so-called public fight is to decide the ownership of the three life and death battles, the first battle is to be a duel between the top experts of over a hundred years of age, showing the strength of the clan's upper echelons in addition to the Dragon Power Realm. The second battle is to show the strength of the middle class of the family and the future pillars of the top experts of the powerhouse.
"Grandfather, just yesterday, the most talented fourth generation disciple of the Qingfeng clan was defeated by Mario of the Louis clan. Originally, I thought that this was just a small matter, but looking at the current situation, this might not be a part of the Louis clan's plan. Now, this news has been spread around the clan, and the victor is decided."
He suddenly said with a solemn expression, "Your accident may have turned into the last resort for the Qing Feng family. This is the obstacle that no matter how brilliant a conspiracy theorist is, it is impossible to avoid every single time. However, the challenge is related to life and death …"
Lin Ke smiled and nodded. "I don't think it's that serious. Yesterday, he promised Cousin Donna that he would teach this guy called Mario a lesson. He didn't expect it to happen. Is the Qing Feng family confident about the other two matches?"
"Cohen, you must never lose your respect for the world. The world is so big, and there is a heaven above the heavens, who can be sure that they are the only one in the world who can be doted on by everything?" I have heard some things about Mario, his talent is extraordinary, don't let your past achievements obscure your eyes, that way you will end up like the members of the Fresh Breeze family, "the old man continued after seeing Lin Ke's serious nod," The so-called life and death battle is an unknown battle, from the moment you stand on the stage, anything can happen, we can only do our best, the result is there.
Link nodded, no fear in his eyes.
— —
It was just as old man Wood had predicted.
Within two days, the news that the newly risen Louis family had openly challenged the old noble, Qing Feng family, spread throughout Liu City. Whether it was the aristocrats or the commoners, they all began to look forward to and guess which family would emerge victorious after this event that happened only once every few decades.
In fact, what caused the nobles to be even more alarmed was the core point of the confrontation between the two sides, the Light Wind Clan's mine!
It was not a shop or land, but an entire vein of fine iron!
A huge fortune that could allow an ordinary family to rapidly grow!
If the Louis Family, which had risen with unstoppable momentum, were to obtain the vein of the Qing Feng Family, it would be like adding wings to a tiger. Liu City would probably not be able to stop them in the near future.
As for what would happen to the Cool Breeze family after they lost their mines, that was something that no one cared about. There was never a lack of declining aristocrats in the empire, and their decline and death pace were always similar.
In the eyes of the commoners, the thousand years of honor of the Cool Breeze family would not allow them to fear the enemy. In the eyes of the commoners, no one would be able to let go of the mine that had supported the Cool Breeze family for hundreds of years without any problems. Now that the mine was under the control of the Rui family, they could only spit it out if they had strong enough power.
However, how could the clan that was already beginning to rot, which was busy fighting amongst itself, possibly have the strength to face the Louis family?
Not many people were optimistic about them.
It didn't matter if you were a noble or a commoner.
