Chapter 41
Chapter 41 Three Ancient Martial Arts Families
In the Ning Family’s villa, there sits the current master of the Ning Family, Ning Yun.
“Uncle Ning, is your father okay?” Yue Tuzhi sits on the sofa and asks.
“Thank you for your concern. My father is okay, except that his mouth is empty without a single tooth.” Ning Yun says with a tremendously unhappy face, his hands grabbing the arms of the sofa and his body trembling all over.
Yue Tuzhi shakes his head too.
As to the Ning Family, such a matter happening to them is a great disgrace. Bearing a burning shame, they must be madly furious.
Luckily, it didn’t happen to the Yue Family.
“Although the Xia Family takes deep root in Song City, here is Jiangnan City, not Song City! Xia Lu should dare to come to our home alone, which is showing that she doesn’t care about the ancient martial arts families in Jiangnan City. We three families are closely linked, and we all rise and fall together. Mr. Zhao, Tuzhi, don’t you know that with bared lips, the teeth feel cold?
Zhao Xing, master of the Zhao Family, only over 40 years old this year, has entered the 8th level of Qi practicing, who is capable to support the whole family
If it were not for Zhao Xing, the Zhao Family would not prosper.
Hearing Ning Yun out, Zhao Xing sneers.
“There are many fighting pros in your family. Can’t you be able to handle a little girl? As far as I know, she has only reached the status of Qi practicing. How come she can escape from you?”
Yue Tuzhi simpers, feeling that Zhao Xing is not lovely at all. People don’t need to say it out loud even though they know the truth so well. Why does Zhao Xing just not understand?
In fact, the Ning Family’s intention is rather simple.
They let go of Xia Lu on purpose, on the premise of injuring her so as to keep her from leaving the Jiangnan City. Then they ask Yue Tuzhi, master of the Yue Family and Zhao Xing, master of the Zhao Family to unite together to deal with Xia Lu. If the Ning Family wants to cope with the Xia Family alone, it is way too difficult. Yet, if the Yue Family and Zhao Family are also onboard, the table will be turned. At least, the damage will be shared and a deterrent effect will be given somewhat.
This is what Ning Yun has in his mind.
None of the masters of ancient martial arts families are fools. Take Ning Yun as an example. In the case when his father was beaten the bricks off, he can even think of such an idea. No way is he an ordinary person.
As to Zhao Xing, Yue Tuzhi believes that this man knows what not to say, except that he means to point it out bluntly to show his attitude.
He is definitely not a fool, who will not be manipulated by the Ning Family!
Before Ning Yun gets to speak, Yue Tuzhi starts to talk.
“Uncle Ning, you know, I am the current master of the Yue Family. As for me, the family is a mess now, so a pressing matter of the moment is to recuperate and build up strength. If we do get in a conflict with the Xia Family, I’m afraid that the Yue Family will be traumatized again.”
Saying so, Yue Tuzhi speaks no more.
Since he has made his point very clearly, he won’t need to continue speaking.
Ning Yun sighs.
“So you are both unwilling to fight against the Xia Family?”
Zhao Xing coughs and knocks on the table with his finger, looking at Ning Yun with his eyes narrowed and saying, “Ning Yun, do you really not know it or are you being innocent?”
“Why are you saying that?” Ning Yun asks with an unhappy face.
“I know it and so does Yue Tuzhi. Only you don’t? Don’t you know what happen to Gao Ge and Yue Xincheng? And you dared to ask Ning Shi to mess with Gao Ge. To be frank, you just deserve it!”
Ning Yun is furious with veins standing out on his forehead.
Zhao Xing says on the high ropes, “Speaking of that, Zhao Jin is much smarter. He wanted to make trouble for Gao Ge before but he didn’t do it. Instead, he gave Gao Ge some spiritual stones and helped kick the boy that troubled Gao Ge out of Jiangnan City. What is it? It is called foresight. I used to think Zhao Jin always let me down, but it turns out that I was wrong. Now they two have become best friends.”
If Gao Ge were here, he would be frightened to sitting on the ground.
Since when he has become the best friend of Zhao Jin?
Ning Yun sneers and say, “Does it matter whether I know it or not?”
“If you do, I am pretty sure that you are such a retard. You knew we didn’t worry about the Xia Family most. Even if they are so capable, they will not be able to do much when they are in Jiangnan City. However, compared with the Academy, the Xia Family is nothing. If you want to die, why do you have to drag us towards the hell too?”
Saying so, Zhao Xing stands up directly and reaches out his hand to point at Ning Yun’s nose, “Let me ask you, Ning Yun. What are you up to? Your motive is execrable!”
Nice shot.
He just puts such a label on Ning Yun.
Moreover, Zhao Xing’s speech is so well organized. Every word makes perfect sense.
It echoes with the saying: The words are so righteous that I have no words to utter.
In other words, you are making such a perfect point that I cannot argue about.
“Uncle Zhao, Xia Lu doesn’t respect the Ning Family, which means she also disrespects the Yue Family and Zhao Family.” It is Ning Tulong, the first son of the Ning Family talking.
Zhao Xing gets a glimpse of him and smiles, saying, “Tulong, you are a good boy indeed. You are quite reliable and smart, but are you also being silly now?”
Ning Tulong’s face turns pale.
Zhao Xing continues saying, “Your father wants to put the Ning Family into danger. You don’t try to stop him and instead help him with that? When the Ning Family is over, you won’t have a chance to become the master of Ning Family.”
Ning Tulong smiles bitterly and rubs his temple, speaking no more.
Zhao Xing turns around and leaves directly.
With an unhappy face, Ning Yun watches Zhao Xing leaving and speaks nothing. He can feel the resolution of Zhao Xing.
Actually, he cannot pick out any faults from Zhao Xing’s deeds.
If he is in Zhao Xing’s shoes, he will make the same choice as him.
Then Ning Yun turns his face back and looks at Yue Tuzhi.
“Tuzhi, what do you think?”
Yue Tuzhi takes a deep breath and looks at Ning Yun, saying, “Uncle Ning, do you really want to know my opinion? After all, my opinion is not what you hope it to be.”
Ning Yun gives a bitter smile.
Yue Tuzhi stands up and says, “Uncle Ning, please listen to me. If enmity is not settled amicably, there is no end to it. If you can let it go, just let it go. Gao Ge’s entering the Cultivation Academy is not merely some luck but also a fated opportunity. If he reaches the peak of martial arts someday, how many people are there in the Ning Family for him to kill?”
Yue Tuzhi keeps saying, “Interestingly, my brother is in a close relationship with Gao Ge. They are much closer than Zhao Jin with Gao Ge. If you want to mess with Gao Ge, my brother will surely take his side.”
“Isn’t that great?” One of the Ning Family says in a low voice.
Yue Tuzhi gets grim and turns his face back to the young man who is speaking.
“Ning Chen, shut up!” Ning Yu hastens to shush him.
Ning Chen is confused. However, before he gets to speak, Yue Tuzhi has already come at him with a punch to make him fly out.
“This is the lesson for your first time’s mistake. If you do it a second time, I will kill you.” Saying that, Yue Tuzhi turns around and leaves regardless of the Ning Family’s angry eyes.
A few persons want to catch up and stop him, but they are called back by Ning Yun.
Now that the Ning Family is already in trouble, how can they mess with the Yue Family? In normal times, the Ning Family will surely fight back but things have changed now.
Ning Yun lowers his head and looks bitterly painful.
