Chapter 71: You're Worthy to Represent Me?
Xiao Mansion…
In the empty space in front of the door was a huge arena.
The seats were occupied by a large crowd.
They were all onlookers who had come to spectate the liveliness. Their scale was comparable to the Immortal Ascension Convention.
Recently, the Xiao Family’s situation was unstable.
Their old ancestor passed away, Xiao Qingge fell to the dust, and the Li family broke off the engagement…
One explosive piece of news after another pushed them to the forefront.
Now that the Li Family had come to challenge them, it was obvious that they wanted to step on the Xiao family.
Everyone knew that the annulment of the engagement was very likely!
…
On the stage, two young men were fighting.
The saber-light and sword-light matched each other.
The two of them were both Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, so their fight was quite lively.,
However, the purple-clothed youth was clearly superior. He took advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness and hit him in the chest.
Pfft!
The young man in black coughed a mouthful of blood and was sent flying. He got smashed into the ground.
The young man in purple was victorious.
This person was Li Sheng, the eldest son of the Li family, Li Ran's cousin.
Li Sheng laughed coldly. "That's it? How desperate the Xiao family must be to send this kind of trash to face off against me!"
The surrounding people were also discussing.
"This is the sixth time he's won, right?"
"Li Sheng is truly invincible. No one in the Xiao family can stop him!"
"He's a first-class talent and also an inner disciple of a sect. His future is limitless!"
"Xiao family is really miserable…"
"That's right, they're about to become a third-rate family."
…
"Qingshan!"
"Quickly save him!"
"Where are the pills? Bring them!"
The members of the Xiao family hurriedly surrounded Xiao Qingshan and carried him back to his residence. At the same time, they glared hatefully at Li Sheng.
How outrageous!
Xiao Nian's expression was ugly, and his brows were filled with black clouds.
Last time, the Li family's elder failed to annul the engagement and returned in defeat. Following that, Li Sheng came to fight them in the challenge arena.
To put it bluntly, they wanted to force the Xiao Family to annul the marriage contract.
"Patriarch, Qingshan wasn’t a match. I'm afraid no one in the younger generation is his match…" The Third Elder whispered.
Xiao Nian clenched his fists.
"If we really are to be swept away by the other party alone, then the Xiao family's face would be obliterated!"
Setting the challenge arena was a rule set by Wu Yang City's several families.
Li Sheng came to the Xiao Family to set up a challenge. The young disciples of the Xiao Family had to accept such challenges. The Elders could not interfere.
Otherwise, they wouldn't dare to be so arrogant.
Li Sheng kept provoking, "No way, no way, that's the level of the Xiao family? Could there be no one left?"
The children of the Xiao family were aggregated.
"Let me do it!"
"You dog! You've gone too far!"
Although their cultivation was average, the young men were antagonized by Li Sheng’s provocation.
One by one, they jumped onto the stage.
However, in just a few moves, they were heavily injured. They spat blood and flew out. Blood had dyed the stage red.
Without exception, they were all defeated.
The difference in the realm was too great!
Xiao Qingge looked at the seriously injured people and her eyes were filled with tears as her body trembled.
Anger and powerlessness filled her heart.
Li Sheng laughed wildly. "That's it? This was the strength of the Xiao family? You can't even win in a tug of war match. It's really funny!"
Among the crowd, Li Ran was watching the show.
If he didn’t understand wrongly, this farce should be related to the annulment of the engagement.
"Is the Xiao Family not willing to annul the engagement?"
Li Ran shook his head.
Although the Xiao family was rather miserable, what did it have to do with him?
He was not interested in meddling in other people's business.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, a figure suddenly entered his eyes. He was stunned.
"What? Why is she here?!”
—
Li Sheng laughed wildly on stage.
All of a sudden, the surroundings quietened down. A woman with a stunning expression slowly walked up to the stage.
"It's actually her!"
"Xiao Qingge? Didn't she lose all her cultivation?"
"That's right. Her marriage is about to be annulled, yet she still has the face to come out?"
—
Even the members of the Xiao family were anxious.
With Xiao Qingge's current condition, wouldn't she be heading towards her death?
Xiao Nian was nervous and was ready to make a move.
This was his own daughter.
Even if he broke the rules, he couldn't let anything happen to her!
On the stage, Li Sheng laughed coldly and said, "I almost forgot that the Xiao family still has a genius like you. Why? Do you want to fight with me?"
Xiao Qingge gritted her teeth and said, "Li Sheng, what exactly do you want!"
Li Sheng said with a sinister smile, "I heard that you didn't agree to annul the engagement and shamelessly wanted to marry into my Li Family. I'm here today to see if your Xiao family is qualified enough!"
He looked around. "It looks like… Tsk tsk, your family can't withstand even a single blow!"
Xiao Qingge clenched her fists. "I've made it very clear. As long as Li Ran comes to annul my engagement, I won't say anything. Why is your Li family so aggressive?"
"Li Ran?"
A hint of coldness flashed in Li Sheng's eyes. “I'm Li Ran's cousin. I can represent him! You have to annul this marriage even if you don’t want to!”
"A mere mortal wanted to lay hands on our Li family?"
Xiao Qingge's face turned pale. "You've gone too far!"
"So what if I bully you?" Li Sheng said wildly, "Either annul the engagement or accept the challenge. You can choose yourself!"
"You!" Xiao Qingge was extremely angry.
Hearing the cries of the people below the stage, her heart ached.
"Could it be… are you really going to split up with Li Ran?"
Her heart was filled with reluctance, but how could she watch her family suffer?
For a moment, she fell silent.
Li Sheng sneered. "Looks like you've chosen to fight? Very well, I'll give you on your way!"
He brazenly reached out his hand to grab at her with a lightning pace.
"Qingge!" Xiao Nian's expression became anxious. Just as he was about to fly to stop him, a sudden explosion rang in his ears.
Boom!
Li Sheng coughed up blood as he was sent flying.
A tall and elegant figure stood in front of Xiao Qingge, his voice cold and fierce.
"Who are you to represent me?"
