"This is a tradition in the Jiangnan area. Every three years, major martial arts families hold a summit. The purpose is to showcase their own strength and use this as a basis to gain more benefits." Qin Yimo replied.
"Isn't your home in the capital? This kind of summit in the Jiangnan region should have nothing to do with you. Why do you want to participate?" Fang Yu asked.
"Our Qin family has a branch in Jiangnan and has a lot of business. Grandpa attaches great importance to this business, so he sent me to Jiangnan. This summit is related to the situation in Jiangnan in the next three years. I must attend." Qin Yimo
replied.
"Martial arts families...show their strength. The meaning of this summit is actually a competition between the major martial arts families, right?" Fang Yu asked with a raised brow.
"It can be understood this way... I had originally contacted my family and sent a master-level elder to come to Jiangnan to accompany me to attend the summit. But I don't know why. Grandpa suddenly came forward and rejected my request, letting me find a way myself. But I don't know why.
The summit is about to start at three o'clock in the afternoon. I have no other choice but to come to you for help." Qin Yimo said with puzzled eyes.
Qin Yimo didn't understand why Qin Wudao did this, but Fang Yu understood it very well.
This kid just wants to drag Fang Yu into trouble!
Fang Yu thought for a while and asked: "If we fight at this summit, can we kill or cripple the opponent?"
"...I don't know about this, I've never participated before." Qin Yimo was stunned for a moment and replied.
If all the major martial arts families in Jiangnan City will come to participate in this summit, and there are no rules that cannot be used during the competition, this will definitely be good news for Fang Yu.
He can come on stage and destroy all the elites brought by those families, and then absorb their cultivation.
If I could absorb the cultivation of dozens of martial arts masters in one afternoon...
Thinking of this, Fang Yu's eyes lit up.
"I can go with you."
Seeing Fang Yu agree, Qin Yimo breathed a sigh of relief.
If Fang Yu refused, she really didn't know what to do.
"The summit will be held at Yuexin Lake. It's about a two-hour drive from here. It's just a good time for us to set off now," Qin Yimo said.
…
Yuexin Lake is a famous scenic spot in the south of the Yangtze River. The scenery here is extremely beautiful. The surface of Yuexin Lake is as bright as a mirror. Lotus flowers float on the lake, which makes the lake surface even more beautiful.
Even if it's not a holiday, there are a lot of tourists here. But today, in addition to tourists, those who came to Yuexin Lake were more representatives of major martial arts families in the south of the Yangtze River, as well as representatives of some top secular wealthy families.
There are many small man-made bridges on Yuexin Lake, which are large enough for hundreds of people to stand.
In the center of Yuexin Lake, there is a large and unobstructed high platform. This high platform is usually used for theater troupes to perform, but today, it is used for elites from major martial arts families to compete with each other.
Ji Rumei and Ji Dongshan also came to Yuexin Lake. They had not yet walked onto the bridge and were standing next to the entrance.
"This summit has attracted a lot of attention. In addition to the major martial arts families, there are also many people like us who come to watch the fun, including the Huang family, the Jiang family, the Hu family..." Ji Dongshan said.
"After all, it only happens once every three years. They all want to see which family is the strongest now so that they can embrace it." Ji Rumei said.
"Rumei, do you think our family... needs to find a supporter?" Ji Dongshan asked hesitantly.
Ji Rumei immediately shook her head and said: "Dad, becoming a subsidiary family of the martial arts family will undoubtedly bring a lot of benefits in a short period of time... But you have to know that since then, we have lost the dominance of the family.
Even lose dignity."
Ji Dongshan sighed and said, "But if we don't find a backer, other families will. If this happens, our Ji family will soon fall out of the first echelon of the Jiangnan family."
Ji Rumei also felt very heavy. Today, so many secular families came to Yuexin Lake for the obvious purpose of finding a backer.
"The Zhong family is here!" At this time, someone nearby shouted.
Ji Rumei looked to the side and saw three people approaching.
The leaders were a young man and a woman, both of whom Ji Rumei knew.
The man is Zhong Yuan and the woman is Zhong Liyu. They are brother and sister, and they are also the core of this generation of the Zhong family.
The old man following Zhong Yuan had a gaze as sharp as a sword. His aura was so strong that he was no ordinary warrior at first glance.
"That old man should be a martial arts master, right?"
"As expected of the Zhong family, you can take a master-level expert out with you casually..."
"The Zhong family's strength is probably the strongest at this summit, right?"
Zhong Liyu's face changed slightly when he saw Ji Rumei, and then looked around Ji Rumei, but did not see Fang Yu.
After thinking about it, Zhong Liyu walked directly towards Ji Rumei.
"Miss Ji." Zhong Liyu greeted Ji Rumei.
Ji Rumei immediately returned the greeting and said, "Hello, Miss Zhong."
"Miss Ji, where was Fang Yu from last time? Why didn't you bring him?" Zhong Liyu asked.
"Mr. Fang...he is not free." Ji Rumei replied.
In fact, Ji Rumei thought about asking Fang Yu to come with her, but she thought about it and felt that Fang Yu would not be willing to attend such an occasion, so she gave up.
However, Ji Rumei was very confused. Didn't Zhong Liyu look down on Fang Yu before? Why was he suddenly so interested in him now?
"Miss Zhong, do you have something to do with Mr. Fang?" Ji Rumei asked.
Recalling the scene where Fang Yu easily killed the monster in that primitive forest, Zhong Liyu's eyes were strange.
"Nothing, I'm going to Yuexin Lake first." Zhong Liyu shook his head, turned and left.
Ji Rumei frowned slightly and looked at Zhong Liyu's back, her beautiful eyes full of doubts.
"Someone from the Zheng family is here too!?" At this time, someone else exclaimed.
Zheng family?
Ji Rumei also looked over with confusion on her face.
I saw a handsome man holding the arm of a charming woman walking over together.
Behind them were two old men wearing military robes, their aura was extremely fierce, and it was obvious at a glance that they were extremely powerful.
When she saw the woman's face, Ji Rumei's expression changed instantly.
Ji Dongshan's face was also ashen.
Yang Yinzhu!
That woman is Yang Yinzhu!
How could she get together with the Zheng family in Huaibei?
As a martial arts family in Huaibei, why did the Zheng family come to the Jiangnan Martial Arts Family Summit today?
"That is Zheng Xiuchen, the eldest son of the Zheng family. The woman next to him looks familiar. Who is she?"
"That woman is the business genius of the Yang family, Yang Yinzhu!"
"Holy shit, Yang Yinzhu? How could Yang Yinzhu... Didn't something big happen to the Yang family recently?"
Some people recognized Yang Yinzhu and started talking about it.
At this time, someone came up to him and asked, "Master Zheng. What is being held here today is the Jiangnan Martial Arts Family Summit. Why are you here too?"
Zheng Xiuchen smiled, glanced at Yang Yinzhu, and said: "Our Zheng family recently wanted to develop in Jiangnan. So we wanted to come over and see how the situation goes. Besides, this summit does not stipulate that only families from Jiangnan can enter, right?
?"
"Of course not, haha... With the strength of the Zheng family, who dares to stop you, Young Master Zheng!" The man said with a flattering smile.
Zheng Xiuchen smiled lightly, held Yang Yinzhu's slim waist, and stepped onto the bridge of Yuexin Lake.
Ji Rumei and Ji Dongshan were standing not far away, looking at Yang Yinzhu with extremely ugly expressions.
"Yang Yinzhu...has joined the Zheng family..." Ji Dongshan said solemnly.
Ji Rumei said nothing, but her heart sank.
What kind of existence is the Zheng family?
They are the well-deserved number one martial arts family in the Huaibei region today!
In recent decades, their family has cultivated many master-level experts, each of whom has extraordinary strength!
It is said that the Zheng family received guidance and inheritance from an expert fifty years ago, and has since embarked on a path of great progress.
Today's Zheng family is simply a giant.
If all the martial arts families in the Jiangnan region unite, they may not be able to defeat just one Zheng family.
Ji Rumei never expected that in such a short period of time, Yang Yinzhu would hug the Zheng family!
"The purpose of Yang Yinzhu's return to Jiangnan with Zheng Xiuchen this time is definitely not just to participate in this summit. She definitely wants to seek revenge from Mr. Fang! He must be notified as soon as possible!" Ji Rumei's face turned pale and she quickly took out her mobile phone to call him.
Fang Yu called.
But at this moment, a familiar voice sounded next to him.
