C8 Triggering the Dispute in the Family Competition
Article 8. The race competition is controversial.
"Alright, you can go back now."
Jun Feng slightly raised his eyelids and looked at Jun Wanqing. There was no expression on his face, as if he did not know her. Jun Feng did not have much feelings for this woman. During Jun Ling's lowest period of time, this woman was full of ridicule and disdain towards Jun Ling. Although it wasn't obvious on the surface, in private, Jun Ling was just trash. It was this woman who had spread the news. At that time, she had caused a huge commotion in the entire Wind and Rain Desolate Town.
In her heart, Jun Ling was the only one. Those who didn't treat Jun Ling well were her enemies. Since they were enemies, there was no distinction between men and women. His brother wouldn't get angry easily. However, it showed how furious he was to be able to hit someone.
Jun Wanqing was stunned on the spot. She felt hot on her face and a strong sense of humiliation came from her heart. She looked at Jun Ling and Jun Feng with hatred in her eyes. She fiercely chopped off her legs and left with the others.
After Jun Wanqing left, Jun Feng looked at Jun Ling and said helplessly, "You, you are the young lady of Jun family after all. Isn't it inappropriate for you to slap her in public?" Jun Ling knew that Jun Feng wasn't blaming him. It was just that if this matter was spread to the public, it would damage the reputation of Jun family.
"This woman is definitely not as simple as she looks. She is very scheming and very good at acting. Susu is my servant girl. She treated Susu the way she did just now. She is slapping my face. Of course I have to return it! Otherwise, she would really think that she can bully me without any restraint! " Jun Ling said with disdain.
Jun Feng could only smile helplessly at this. His father would definitely blame him when he went back. His younger brother and Jun Wanqing had never gotten along well. Now, it could be said that they had completely shed all pretenses of cordiality.
When they returned home with Jun Feng and the others, Jun Tiannan and Lau Ruyan pestered each other for warmth. When they woke up in the morning, they found that Jun Ling had disappeared. This worried the couple badly. They only relaxed when they saw that Jun Ling had returned safely.
In the main hall of the Jun Prefecture, Jun Tiannan sat on the head seat like a mountain. Jun Ling sat on the left side of the seat. There was no one else in the hall except this father and son pair. Jun Tiannan looked at Jun Ling. The concern on his face was obvious. "Ling, how do you feel now?"
"Don't worry father, I have fully recovered."
Jun Ling smiled and felt warmth flowing through his heart. Jun Tiannan nodded. He said, "That's good, Doctor Jiang is right! Your body has fully recovered, do you have any plans for what happens next? Why don't you go to the medicine hall of our Jun family to help?"
The medicine hall was one of the most important economic businesses of the Jun family, and it had quite a reputation in the Desolate Town.
"I don't know how to do business. You can let your subordinates do things like this!" After saying that, Jun Ling stood up and made a face at Jun Tiannan before running out. In the hall, Jun Tiannan's expression froze, and then he let out a bitter smile. As expected! He would not agree to let him do business.
When he arrived at another courtyard, he found that the courtyard was filled with people. They were all the juniors and peers of the Jun family. They were all chattering away, and no one knew what they were talking about. Jun Ling walked over and stood outside the crowd, looking inside. After that, a look of realization appeared on his face. The family competition of the Jun family was going to start in half a month's time! He would register here.
The so-called family competition was a competition between the younger generation of a family. It was designed to select talents that could be entrusted with important positions to be nurtured and raised to raise the sense of crisis among the younger generation of the clan. It was also a form of training for the younger generation to let them know the difference between them and their peers. At the same time, they would also reward those who won in the Family Competition and encourage their cultivation passion.
However, every year, it was a form of torture for the family compared to Jun Ling. Every time, he could only sit below the stage and watch. The others would also look at him with mocking eyes from time to time. In the past, they only had the heart to cultivate. However, because of the Poison Burial Mushroom, he was unable to cultivate.
However, this time around, he must not miss out on this opportunity.
...
The one in charge of recording was an old steward of the Jun family. The servant's surname was Jun Meiqi. He was a fairly experienced steward in the Jun family. He was absolutely loyal to the Jun family and had high prestige.
The huge courtyard was surrounded by the people of Jun family. Many people had already written their names on the paper one after another. Just as Jun Meiqi was about to put away the pen, a white-robed figure suddenly appeared in front of him. He raised his head and looked at Jun Mei Qi. He was slightly startled. After that, he quickly cupped his hands and said, "Second young master."
Jun Ling's appearance caused the surrounding younger generation of the Jun family to be incomparably strange. Quite a number of people began to whisper amongst themselves. Ignoring the words of the surrounding people, a smile was revealed on Jun Ling's tender face. He said, "Elder Jun, I want to register as well."
"Ah!"
Elder Jun Mei glared at him as if he couldn't believe his ears. After a few moments of hesitation, he said with a strange expression, "Second Young Master, you? Jun Ling shook his head. "It's fine, I've recovered." With that, he suddenly turned around and walked to the table. His left hand lifted his right sleeve and he focused his mind to hold the black pen.
The ink fell, and the pen stopped.
Jun Ling's two words were forcefully written on the paper. Jun Mei Qi saw all of this but did not stop it. Jun Ling could be said to have grown up and had always felt sorry for Jun Meiqi for what had happened to Jun Ling. Now that Jun Ling was able to stand out once again, it wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
However, before Jun Meiqi could say anything, someone burst into laughter. A man in a grey robe took two steps forward. He looked at Jun Ling with a mocking expression and sneered, "The condition to participate in the Family Competition is to have a cultivation base above the fifth level of the Profound Stage. Second young master, registering for this Family Competition is not a wise decision."
Jun Ling looked at Jun Liang with a calm expression and the corner of his mouth slowly curled up, "Are you challenging me?" Jun Liang coldly snorted with a gloomy expression, and said, "Then I wish Second young master good luck. I hope you are not trying to humiliate yourself!" After saying that, he waved his sleeve and left with the few youngsters. The surrounding people watched their conversation and left one after another.
Soon, the news of Jun Ling registering for the Family Competition spread throughout the Jun family. Those who heard it all sneered. A useless person who had been useless for eleven years actually dared to register for the Family Competition. Many people wanted to see the scene of Jun Ling's defeat, but Jun Ling, who had caused a huge commotion, sat quietly on his bed. He held his breath and focused on cultivating the Grand Void Vast Firmament Spell.
Just as Jun Ling's consciousness was immersed in his cultivation, his sharp senses detected that someone was walking towards his room. He stopped his Yuan energy practice after breathing in and out. Soon, the door of the room was pushed open and Jun Feng walked in with a panicked expression.
"Little brother, you signed up for the Family Competition?"
Jun Feng's voice was loud as soon as he entered the room. He stood in front of Jun Ling and looked at him in disbelief. Jun Ling raised his head and nodded slightly. "Yes, my body has recovered. I want to test my abilities."
"You are too reckless in participating in the family competition this time. The people participating in this competition are all at least at the third level of the Profound Stage. You should have a good rest now. There is no rush for you to cultivate." The anxiety on Jun Feng's face was obvious, but Jun Ling just chuckled. He got off the bed and came to Jun Feng. He looked at Jun Feng with a pair of deep eyes. He said word by word, "I will do it."
