Martial Ruler

Although Qing Lei had defeated Ye Dong to regain face for the Qing Family during the Large Competition, the fact that the "Duan Qi" was sparkling on the eye crystal was an indisputable fact. As the Patriarch who treated the eye crystal as his authority, why did he suddenly make such a decision? Qing Lei was puzzled.    

"Yes!" Qing Rou answered with certainty and continued, "Even though according to clan rules, you are not allowed to enter Medicine Pond, the clan leader said that there are always exceptions and the clan elders all agree to let you enter Medicine Pond."    

Qing Lei understood now, with his current level seven and eight Fighting Soul, he was undoubtedly one of the best in the younger generation. They definitely wanted to let him become a strong warrior without making a sound, so they might as well sell him to Qing Cheng. That way, even if there was any danger to his Qing Family in the future, Qing Lei and his father would naturally not stand by and watch.    

Qing Lei originally didn't care about Medicine Pond, but that cold old man always thought that his physique was too weak. If he could soak in the Medicine Pond for a bit, it might have the effect of strengthening his physique. That's why he agreed to go with Qing Rou.    

Just like that, the two of them walked into the Qing Family Stronghold. The moment they entered the stronghold, Qing Lei immediately felt something was off.    

"Look, it's Qing Mr Lei. He's really handsome." One of the girls in the family was like a pig in heat, staring at Qing Lei. She looked as if she wanted to swallow him whole. Qing Lei had always ignored these hidden autumn waves.    

"Enough, you don't need to be in heat. You don't even know who the person standing beside him is. She is a delicate flower of our Qing Family. Furthermore, when he became a trash, he had never seen you acting so affectionately before!"    

The girls turned to look at Qing Rou, who had a joyous expression on her face. How regretful they were of the contempt they had sent over countless times when Qing Lei became the publicly acknowledged trash!    

"Handsome! Even he can be considered handsome. I really don't know what's so good about this kid that he actually got the honor of getting Qing Rou's attention!"    

"That's right. I never would have thought that he would be hiding his true strength. Furthermore, almost everyone is in the dark. I have finally fulfilled his wish of toying with everyone. Hmph." "In the future, you can hide as far away as you can from this kind of people!"    

"Tch!" The group of youths and young girls glanced at each other, then dispersed in discontent.    

Qing Lei was not affected by these people and headed straight for the meeting place.    

Along the way, those weak youths of the family forgot that they swore that they would have a relationship with Qing Lei. In the blink of an eye, they covered their faces with thick skin and followed behind Qing Lei happily.    

"Cousin Qing Lei, you are really the pride of our family. If not for you defeating Ye Dong, I'm afraid our Qing Family's face would have been completely thrown away by some people!" The one who spoke was a cousin of Qing Lei called Qingyuan. He praised Qing Lei with a smile and didn't forget to tell everyone to look at Qing Feng, who was still wearing a cast on his hands.    

His hands unconsciously clenched into fists as he looked at the clansmen surrounding Qing Lei with indignation. He said fiercely, "A group of people that are trying to take advantage of the situation, one day, I will defeat Qing Lei and prove to you that you guys are really blind."    

Actually, what Qing Feng cared the most was not their opinion of him, but Qing Rou's opinion of him. From the moment he was injured until now, Qing Rou had only asked him about it once, but she had gone to check on Qing Lei's injuries three times a day.    

Almost all of the clan members that were highly valued by the clan were present. According to the customs of the past years, most of the people responsible for leading the competition were Elders, and since the Elders were respected, they were always punctual.    

However, today, there was an abnormal day. It had already been a long time since the scheduled time, and the elders still had not appeared.    

Qing Lei felt bored. His only son found a place with less people and sat down, holding his breath as he waited.    

After an unknown amount of time, a clan member suddenly appeared and said something. The dozen or so clansmen that were selected excitedly ran towards the clan meeting hall.    

At the beginning, Qing Lei didn't think much of it. However, he soon found that everyone with status in the family was entering the hall one after another. He was also curious, so he followed them.
