Qin Feng sneered and looked disdainfully at Jiang Lei, who had just swallowed a fly. He snorted coldly. "What! Weren't you fighting to thank me just now? Now that you've been rewarded, you've gone mute! "
"Jiang Lei! Are you pretending to be deaf and mute, or do you not know how to be grateful?! "
Seeing Qin Feng's murderous glare, Jiang Lei panicked. He hurriedly kowtowed to Qin Feng and said, "Thank you, Young Master Qin, thank you, Young Master Qin!"
"Hahahaha!"
Qin Feng sneered and glared angrily at Jiang Lei and the other three Qin Clan guards who were kneeling on the ground. He roared, "Scram! Don't let me see you again, or I'll beat you up every time I see you! "
"Despicable bullies, scram!"
Hearing Qin Feng's angry rebuke, Jiang Lei and the other three Qin Clan guards, who were kowtowing to him, crawled up from the ground and ran into Cangzhou City without looking back, escaping without a trace.
After seeing Jiang Lei and the others leave, Qin Feng silently glanced at Yu Xin and Murong Dongxue, then turned and returned to Cangzhou City.
Watching Qin Feng's back as he left, Qing Yu Xin and Murong Dongxue supported each other and stood up. Yu Xin's eyes were filled with reluctance to part with Qin Feng.
"Senior Sister! Let's go! We have to return to Yunyang Mountain immediately and tell master about Chen Lei's lies! "
Qing Yu Xin nodded silently to Murong Dongxue, then turned around and supported Murong Dongxue as they left Cangzhou City and headed for Yunyang Mountain.
Cangzhou City's Chen family's main hall.
An ugly-looking disciple was excitedly reporting to a middle-aged man with a good demeanor.
"Master, everything is under our control …"
As it turned out, this middle-aged man was none other than Cangzhou City's fifth clan apart from the four great clans, the Chen clan's patriarch, Chen Lei.
As for this ugly youth, he was none other than Chen Erhei, a disciple of the Qin Clan sent by Chen Lei to spy on them from the shadows.
"Hahahaha!"
"Alright! Well done! Master will reward you handsomely! "
Watching Chen Erhei's back as he left, Chen Lei's face was filled with joy. He thought to himself, "The fourth clan of Cangzhou City will be my Chen Clan! Qin family, Qin Wentian, hmph! "
After muttering to himself, Chen Lei's eyes were filled with anticipation for the fourth clan. He left the main hall and headed toward the number one clan in Cangzhou City, the Jiang Clan.
Inside the Jiang Family's great hall, Jiang Dalong, who held the title of Cangzhou City's number one family head, ordered when he heard Chen Lei's report, "Let him in!"
In the blink of an eye, Chen Lei, who had rushed over from the Chen Clan, arrived at the Jiang Clan's main hall and appeared before Jiang Dalong.
"City Lord Jiang! Chen Lei of the Chen family greets City Lord Jiang! "
In the Cangzhou City, the number one family naturally became the City Lord of the entire city.
Although the Cangzhou City didn't occupy a large area, it was rich in real estate. There were medicinal pills, gold ores, the Thousand Beast Mountain, and many other small businesses that could be used to make money.
Their annual profits couldn't be described as' considerable '. They should be considered as nouveau riche.
And the biggest beneficiary of these profits was none other than the City Lord of the Cangzhou City. The second, third, and fourth clans also received some profits. Other than the four great clans, the other great clans could only watch on helplessly.
This was also one of the reasons why Chen Lei wanted to force the Qin family out of the Cangzhou City, making the Chen family the fourth clan.
"Chen Clan Lord, there's no need to be so courteous. Come, please take a seat!"
Jiang Dalong warmly welcomed Chen Lei. At this moment, he ordered the maids in the main hall to serve tea.
"I wonder what kind of wind blew our Chen Clan Lord here today. Since Clan Lord Chen is in such a hurry to find me, could it be that something big has happened?"
Chen Lei nodded silently after drinking a mouthful of tea. At this moment, he glanced at the two maids standing in the main hall.
When Jiang Dalong saw this, he dismissed the two maids and said with a bewildered expression, "Clan Lord Chen, just what kind of big matter has happened?"
Seeing the two maids leave, Chen Lei told Jiang Dalong the reason for his visit in full detail.
After hearing Chen Lei's intentions, Jiang Dalong didn't show it on his face, but he was silently thinking to himself, Chen Lei, your appetite is quite big! You actually want to swallow the Qin family in one bite!
Chen Lei took out a sparkling pearl from his bosom after he finished speaking. "City Lord Jiang, please lend me a hand and bring forward the Cangzhou City's Clans Tournament. It would be best if it could be started tomorrow! This Thousand Year Dragon Pearl is a gift from Chen Lei to the City Lord. When the matter is done, Chen Lei will definitely thank the City Lord heavily! "
The Clans Tournament that Chen Lei spoke of was actually targeted at the fourth clan, the Qin family.
The Clans Tournament had existed since the founding of Cangzhou City and had a history of over a thousand years.
The so-called Clans Tournament was divided into four years, three years, two years, and one year according to the ranking of the four great families from first to fourth.
In other words, the Clans Tournament wouldn't last forever. If one wanted to hold onto the title of the first clan, they would need to possess true ability that surpassed all the other families in Cangzhou City.
Otherwise, they would be replaced by another family just like the Qin family had been in the past.
The details of the four periods referred to the time when the clan would set up the arena. The number one clan of the entire Cangzhou City would set up the arena once every four years. Moreover, it wasn't just the number one clan who set up the arena, but all the clans of the entire Cangzhou City. After being the number one clan for four years, they could set up the arena to challenge the young talents of the number one clan.
The Clans Tournament would be held three years later, and all the families in Cangzhou City could challenge the Clans Tournament as long as they had enough confidence in their youths.
The reason why Chen Lei mentioned the Clans Tournament was because the Qin family was the fourth clan. In a year's time, all the families in Cangzhou City could send out their youths to challenge the Qin family, seizing the title of the fourth clan.
Since the founding of the Cangzhou City, there was a rule that stated that the person who set up the tournament had to be a young genius. Both the challenger and the one being challenged had to be young geniuses as well.
This was also the reason why Chen Lei rejoiced in the misfortune of the two sons of the Qin family, Qin Wu and Qin Jian, to the point of rushing to the Jiang Clan, begging the Jiang Clan Lord, Jiang Dalong, to bring forward the date of the Clans Tournament to tomorrow.
In Chen Lei's heart, all the youths in the Qin family, other than Qin Wu and Qin Jian, were all mediocre. There was no way they could be a match for his eldest son, Chen Chong.
Jiang Dalong glanced at the Dragon Pearl that Chen Lei handed over. His eyes stared at it for a moment, before helplessly saying, "Clan Lord Chen is right! Ever since Qin Wentian took over, the Qin family rapidly rose from the number one clan to the number four clan. Not only that, on the Sword Testing Day, their infamy spread far and wide. A dignified Sword Testing Disciple was actually defeated by a Sword Slave, Qin Feng! "
Chen Lei repeatedly nodded his head at Jiang Dalong.
In the end, Jiang Dalong pretended to sigh with regret. "Alright then! Since the date of the Clans Tournament is tomorrow, so be it! Who asked our Cangzhou City to be a place where only the strong are respected? "
