The Legacy System

In but a few moments the situation had turned and twisted fully. Now it wasn't the fault and trap of the Cui Family, but that of the Ling Family.

Many people started looking at the situation with some complex and weird looks, as they didn't know what to really make of this.

The number of those that had sided with the Ling Family earlier wasn't small, but now they could only lower their heads and hope that no one remembered that.

The Elders of the Cao and Cui Families were looking at the possible perpetrators with great care and attention, in fear that something might happen at any moment.

On the other hand, the Ling Family Elders couldn't help but have their faces turn blood red as they were getting enraged by the accusation.

There was something that they couldn't understand, just how the hell had Cui Xie appeared under their table!? None of them had been able to realize his presence until now.

Still, even though they lost it for a few moments due to their anger, they surely gained their senses quickly, as one of them said,

"At this point, it doesn't matter anymore who is behind this, as we can find the perpetrator later, right now what we need is the antidote pill for the poison!

Cui Xie hand over the antidote pills and we will let you go!"

"Ugghh…, ghhmm.., hhmmm…"

​ The crowd had forgotten that Cui Xie had his mouth tied when the Cui Family Elder that saved him quickly removed the thing blocking his mouth, as Cui Xie started raining curses at the Ling Family people.

"You shameless dastards, and stupid motherfu*ckers, what kind of antidote pill do you ask of me!? Do I look like some great alchemist or some kind of great doctor!?

How should I know what kind of poison you have used to threaten and force these people with one foot on the grave?

You son's of bit*ches actually dared to sneak attack me, and then trap me in here, now you shamelessly ask for some shitty antidote pills that I have no idea out of nowhere.

Can't your face even get red in this situation, you motherfu*cker, you human scum…"

Young Master Cui Xie continued quite a bit with his curses and insults, so much that he most probably made the Elders of the Cui Family have internal ear bleeding.

"Cui Xie stop wasting our time, everyone here knows this is your doing!"

"Like fu*ck it is, what the fu*ck do you mean you damned piece of shit, did your mother drop you when she gave birth to you, or did someone crush your skull when you were a little kid.

Most probably it was some ghost that was terrified of your face and character, you worthless scum that would make even scum look like angels compared to you.

It wasn't enough that your ugly dirty face entrapped and kept me tied up for more than a day, but you even want to throw all the blame towards this Young Master!?

I don't care whether you are an Elder or an Ancestor of the Ling Family, I want you fu*ckers to pay me back for everything you made me suffer in these days.

If not, I swear to stop the manufacturing of the potions and elixirs until you do so, and let us see what will happen to you…"

Once again Young Master Cui Xie started cursing and insulting in anger and rage at the elders of the Ling Family, making them unable to hear even another word coming from his mouth.

People in the crowd that were with a foot on their grave couldn't help but feel that this Young Master Cui Xie truly had no relation to what had happened and that everything was planned by someone else.

Of course, considering everything until that moment it was clear that the first suspects in everyone's minds were the people from the Ling Family, but who dared to voice those thoughts.

'Cough…, cough…'

It was at this moment that Young Master Ling who had fallen on the ground after taking Eric's punch to the guts suddenly coughed twice and vomited two mouthfuls of blood.

Seeing this situation the Elders of the Ling Family were immediately agitated, as they felt that they couldn't wait any longer, before the old man leading them, turned towards the Li Pimp, and said,

"Patriarch Li our Young Master is on the verge of death, please quickly give us the pill, and our Ling Family promises to owe you three favors!"

"Hmph~! You shameless bastards, not only do you set up such a scheme, but you even want to play it like this, not giving our Young Master a chance to survive.

Monsters of the Ling Family, our Cao Family swears to never live under the same sky as you!"

Those words were surprisingly said by the Elder leading the Cao Family faction, who was clearly displeased with the betrayal of the Ling Family.

"Agghh~! Stop this shit, Li Saint hand over the antidote pill, now!"

The one who took the stage and said those words was one of the Elders of the Ling Family. Seeing that the carrot wasn't working he decided to use pressure and the stick.

Unfortunately, this was a great mistake from his side, as this stupid mistake was the same as admitting they were behind all this mess.

"You idiot, what are you talking about!"

"We don't have time to discuss now, our Young Master is about to die at any moment, we need to do everything we can to stop that!"

It wasn't that the others didn't understand this simple logic, it was just that the situation was truly too complicated and shitty at the moment, and they couldn't afford such a move.

The Li Saint was still thinking about the pros and cons of this situation, not to mention that little bastard who seemed to have disrupted his plans.

"Li Saint, are you giving me the pill or not!?"

The poor Li Saint was awakened from his stupor due to the loud screams of that Ling Family Elder, as he couldn't help but ask in startle,

"Huh~!? What!? Did something happen!?"

"Since you want to act like that, then don't blame me!"

With that said, the Ling Family Elder didn't waste any more time as he immediately jumped in attack towards the Li Pimp, as his palm seemed just like a slab of a mountain.

'What the hell!?'

Li Pimp wasn't the only one to get shocked by this sudden move of the Ling Family Master, as the other people of the Ling Family were the same as well.

While they understood why they didn't know how could this stupid relative of theirs would actually do something like this in this situation.

This guy wasn't weak, quite on the opposite he was especially strong, as he seemed to have gone through 5 evolutions, and reached the 5th Realm.

Even though Li Pimp was one big realm above him, this guy didn't seem to fear that and was actually going against him head-on.

One could say that this was a great show of his courage and ability, but they couldn't associate that thought with the fact that the Ling Family could be behind all this mess.

Li Saint on the other hand was truly startled and shocked by the conduct of this Ling Family Elder, but he still didn't lose his composure, as he sent a palm of his own forward.

Since he was a Realm 6 expert, it was clear that his energy, Qi, and strength were beyond the attacker, so he didn't use any skills, and it was a simple palm.

'Boooooommmmmm~!'

Two palms clashed and crashed onto each other creating quite the impact, and noises around the venue, but surprisingly one of the two palms didn't belong to the Li Pimp.

As the cloud of dust slowly settled, the whole crowd could actually look at one of the Cao Family Elders standing in front of the attacker, while saying without looking behind,

"Patriarch Li can you please go ahead and give that antidote pill to my Young Master! Our Cao Family will help you deal with these bastards, and everyone else that dares to cast their greedy eyes upon you and your Li Family!"

"You bastards, make way now!"

"Elders you shouldn't act like this…"

"Shut the hell up you damn old thing, how dare you not obey my Ling Family orders!? Are you looking to die!? Hand over the antidote now otherwise I will kill you!"

That Ling Family Elder seemed to make things worse, as the rest of the Ling Family Elders were approaching to help him control his emotions.

Unfortunately, this movement of theirs was taken as a chance to reinforce the Ling Family Elder, as the Cao Family Elders moved behind their own relative.

"Hmph~! Do you think that my Cao Family people are that easy to bully!? You are courting death!"

"Cao Gui what the hell are you talking about, I came here to…"

"Spare me the bullshit Ling Ling, it's clear that this is your Ling Family's doing. What a good Ling Family, huh, truly what a good family!"

It was clear that the situation was extremely tense at that moment, and it would explode at any time when they both turned towards Li Pimp and said,

"Patriarch Li give us the antidote pill!"

Li Pimp wanted to return peace and cooperation between the two Families, but unfortunately, it didn't work, as he was only faced with insults and courses.

'I…"

'Cough… cough…'

As he was thinking of what to do, Young Master Ling coughed some more, and lost some more blood, as his other step was entering the grave…
