Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss - Chapter 4459
4459 A slip of the tongue?
“City Lord Ji, I didn’t expect you to be here as well. It’s been so many years, but city Lord Ji is still as elegant as ever.” When they saw city Lord Ji, the family heads all took a few steps forward.
“Master Xiahou, master Zhu, Master Lu, you’re still as impressive as you were in the past.” City Lord Ji quickened his pace and smiled as he cupped his hands in greeting.
After that, Ling Chuxi and the rest also came forward to greet the family heads.
“City Lord Ji, it’s rare to see you out of Dongjin city. Why are you so elegant today to specially come and cheer for young master Ling?” Lord Xiahou asked with a faint smile.
“A few days ago, when young master Ling and young master cui made an agreement to compete, they happened to be in this old man’s Dongjin city. No matter what, they have some connection with this old man, so I came to join in the fun and be a witness for them. I didn’t come here specially to cheer for young master Ling.” City Lord Ji chuckled.
Dongjin city wasn’t a big city, and his position as the city Lord was still a distance away from the position of the head of an ancient family. However, because he was sly and had made friends all over the world, and because he was quite powerful himself, he was able to earn a small reputation. Thus, even though he wanted to get on good terms with the Ling family in private, he couldn’t show too much favoritism on the surface.
“Yes, this competition is of great importance. It’s good to have one more witness.” Lord Xiahou nodded.
“Ling Chuxi, I thought you wouldn’t dare to come. I didn’t expect you to really dare to come.” Huang Huali walked forward at this moment and said to Ling Chuxi with a bit of arrogance.
“Huang Huali, wasn’t the lesson I gave you last time enough? you still dare to come out and bark?” Ling Yixuan was filled with anger when she saw Huang Huali, so she ridiculed him rudely.
“Hmph, let’s see who’s going to teach who a lesson after today.” Huang Huali’s expression changed when he heard Ling Yixuan mention the past.
Ling Chuxi squinted her eyes slightly and looked at Huang Huali. She remembered that a few days ago, this guy had been avoiding her and did not even dare to look at her. Why was he so cocky today? from his words, it seemed that he was full of confidence in this competition. Cui Shili was only at the peak of the Emperor level. It was not as if Huang Huali did not know her combat power, so why was he so confident in him?
Ling Chuxi could faintly sense that cui Shili had probably prepared very well for today’s competition. She did not know what kind of backup plans he had.
“Huali, why do you need to argue with them?” Cui Shili glared at Huang Huali. He did not want to raise Ling Chuxi’s guard too early and ruin the big plan.
“Yes, brother cui.” Huang Huali said respectfully, but he also secretly sneered at Ling Chuxi.
The humiliation he suffered in Hezhou city that day was still fresh in his memory. When he thought about how he could kill Ling Chuxi today to wash away the shame, Huang Huali’s heart was filled with excitement that could not be suppressed.
“Cui Shili, everyone’s here, should we start now?” Ling Chuxi was not interested in talking nonsense with them, so she went straight to the point.
“Wait a minute, our Huang, Chai, and cui families all have a share in the grudges with the Wu, sun, and other clans. So, we’ve come to a conclusion that I, Huang Shili, and Chai kezhou will be participating in this match, and you can also choose three people to fight against us.” Cui Shili said.
“Cui Shili, you said you can choose three people?” Ling Yixuan immediately noticed the loophole in cui Shili’s words.
With Ling Chuxi’s cultivation, dealing with cui Shili was definitely not a problem. Ling zhongxuan could also fight with Chai kezhou, but the cultivation of the other members of the Ling family was much weaker. No one was a match for Huang Shili. However, cui Shili had said that he could choose three people, but he had not specified that they had to be descendants of the Ling family. Ling Yixuan felt that she had found an opportunity.
