297 Leaving the Liu Family
Killing intent instantly flashed in Leng Tongze’s eyes. The Liu family was really becoming more and more brazen. They actually dared to scold him!
The Liu family members only looked at Qiao Yanhui and the others coldly. Everyone knew who the War God of the Ancient Kingdom was. He was a fiend who killed people without batting an eyelid. He had even killed people from secret families with ease! Although Qiao Yanhui didn’t know the identities of those people, Qiao Yanhui intimidated them!
Of course, some of them had chased after Qiao Yanhui before, but no one had ever returned alive. They couldn’t afford to offend him, but they could hide. After all, they didn’t have any conflicts of interest with Qiao Yanhui, so they pretended not to know about this matter.
Although the Liu family’s elder decided not to pursue the matter, a certain blue-eyed young man didn’t think so. He immediately rushed towards Qiao Yanhui, but before he could move, he was grabbed by a pair of strong hands.
Liu Gexu’s voice sounded indifferent as he said, “You’re not worthy of looking for him.”
This instantly enraged Liu Shen, who had always been the center of attention ever since he was young. “You’re a piece of trash who’s about to die. What right do you have to question the future State Master?!”
Liu Shen’s words made Leng Ning’er’s expression change. He was going to die? The person she had relied on since she was young and was more like her father than her actual father was about to die?
“You haven’t undergone the State Master succession ritual yet!” Liu Gexu said coldly.
This made Liu Shen freeze and he felt Liu Gexu’s pressure. How could he have forgotten that although Liu Gexu was also restrained by the Liu family, the Liu family was also afraid of him at the same time? This was enough to prove that Liu Gexu was extraordinary.
Liu Gexu looked at the two elders beside Liu Shen. “What do you guys think?”
The two elders lowered their eyes and said in a low voice, “You should know that you have to go back to the Liu family with us after the ceremony.”
Over the years, whenever the previous State Master was about to die, the Liu family would send another person to inherit the position. After the ceremony, the previous State Master had to return to the Liu family. The Liu family members had to die in the Liu family’s home.
“I remember that if someone wants to leave the Liu family, that person has to pass your test, right?” This was also the reason why Liu Gexu asked these two elders to come.
The two elders immediately looked up. Liu Gexu wanted to leave the Liu family? There was less than a year left. Was he going to do all this just to gain freedom? No one could survive their test! Moreover, Liu Gexu had made this decision ten years ago, but he gave up later. This time, he actually mentioned it again?
Leng Ning’er didn’t know what this test meant, but she knew that Liu Gexu might die. She wanted to stop him, but she couldn’t find a reason to stop him. After all, freedom was very important to him… She could only watch as they reached an agreement.
…
A carriage slowly drove out of the city.
“Mom, how long will Mr. Liu lie there for?” Xue’er looked at the severely injured Liu Gexu and asked in confusion.
“He’ll be up soon.” Xu Qing admired Liu Gexu very much. For the sake of freedom, he had endured extreme pain.
After Liu Gexu held the State Master inheritance ceremony, he accepted the test of the Liu family’s elders.
Only then did Xu Qing find out that the so-called test was to let a person who had no combat strength when the cold Gu poison acted up compete with two experts in terms of internal energy! No wonder no one had ever survived. If she had not found the medicine to restrain the cold Gu poison in advance, Liu Gexu definitely would have been doomed. Fortunately, in the end, Liu Gexu defeated the two elders.
The reason Liu Gexu chose this method was because of the Liu family’s way of doing things. If he left on his own accord, not only would he be hunted down by the Liu family, but the cold Gu poison would also be activated by the Liu family and he would suffer all sorts of torture. However, as long as the cold Gu poison was detoxed, he wouldn’t have to be afraid. If he went through with the ritual, the Liu family wouldn’t chase after him so openly.
However, seeing that Liu Gexu wasn’t dead, the Liu family didn’t let him go and even asked him to return the hundred-year-old dragon robe. It was only when Qiao Yanhui appeared and beat them up that they left.
This was because the hundred-year-old dragon robe was the life-saving talisman of the previous State Masters. If the State Master was on his last breath because of the royal family, as long as he ate it, he would be able to protect his heart meridians. Therefore, on the surface, this hundred-year-old dragon robe was the national treasure of the Green Mountain Kingdom, but in fact, it belonged to the State Master. It was also the guarantee given to the State Master by the Liu family. This was also why the Liu family requested he return it.
Xu Qing looked at Xu Sizhi, who was resting with his eyes closed, and asked curiously, “Sizhi, Leng Ning’er didn’t look for you again? Did she ask you to be her husband?” Xu Qing could tell that Leng Ning’er liked Xu Sizhi very much.
Xu Sizhi coughed lightly and was about to say something when he heard Xue’er suddenly raise her hand. “I know, I know. Miss Ning’er said that she will come to look for Uncle Sizhi and compete fairly with Auntie Xiang.”
