Chapter 150: Commotion

Inside Qin Ming's bedroom, the entire room was filled with Spiritual Qi, and a look of pain appeared on Qin Ming's face.

Beads of sweat as large as beans dripped down, scattering onto the floor and forming small puddles.

Suddenly, the Spiritual Qi contracted violently and surged toward Qin Ming's body. In an instant, the Spiritual Qi in the entire room was completely drained.

Qin Ming's expression became calm and serene, his clothes stirred without wind, and his hair fluttered.

"Martial Master realm! I have finally reached it."

Qin Ming opened his bright eyes, and a faint light seemed to shoot out from within them.

After ten Reincarnations as a Martial Warrior, I have finally attained the Martial Master realm; to whom can I speak of the pain and hardship involved?

"Now it is time to go and share the good news with Father."

Pushing open the door, Qin Ming walked toward his father's study. During this period, he had been in secluded cultivation, and his meals were delivered by a Servant.

Having not stepped out for some time, the sunlight outside was a bit dazzling.

"Where is my father?" Qin Ming found the City Lord's mansion study, but discovering his father was not inside, he couldn't help but ask a nearby Servant.

"Replying to Young Master, the Master is in the Council Hall discussing matters with the Elders," the Servant replied respectfully.

Nodding, Qin Ming headed toward the Council Hall.

He hadn't managed Liu City's affairs for days and didn't know the current situation in Liu City. Now that his father was in the Council Hall, it was the perfect time to discuss it with the Elders.

Qin Ming soon arrived at the City Lord's mansion Council Hall. The guards at the gate saw it was Qin Ming and hurriedly pushed open the doors, inviting him to enter.

"Qin Ming, you are here." Qin Yuan said happily upon seeing Qin Ming enter.

Qin Ming cupped his hands and said, "Father, Elders."

"Quick, sit here. We are currently discussing the situation in Liu City; you have come just in time."

Several Elders stood up to welcome Qin Ming to sit.

After Qin Ming sat down, Qin Yuan continued:

"The Wang Family is currently contacting small families everywhere; I don't know what they are up to."

During this period, the Family's Intelligence Personnel had been focusing on intelligence from Chenyang City, so they had not been diligent in investigating intelligence from Liu City.

Small families throughout Liu City began to stir, and only then did they realize that the Wang Family had already begun to make trouble.

"What else could they be doing? The Wang Family loves doing these kinds of sneaky, underhanded things. They are definitely discussing how to deal with our Qin Family right now. In my opinion, we should just wipe out the Wang Family directly."

An Elder said loudly.

"But the Wang Family's important personnel have already gone into hiding. Now the entire Liu City is in chaos, and rumors are spreading that our Qin Family is unjust. They say we provoked the Sima Family, brought disaster upon all of Liu City, and demand that we take responsibility for this matter."

Another Elder said in a dilemma.

Slap! Qin Yuan slammed the table and roared:

"This Wang Family is truly shameless! They didn't dare to jump out when the Qin Family was powerful, but they choose to do so at this most critical moment. Those small families are also opportunists; when our Qin Family was doing well, they desperately tried to curry favor, but now that we are in trouble, they all jump out to kick us while we are down."

Hearing his father's roar, Qin Ming's expression remained unchanged, and he smiled:

"Father, make a note of all those small families. After our Qin Family overcomes this crisis, we can settle the score later."

Hearing the word "crisis" from Qin Ming, the previously furious Qin Yuan slumped back into his chair.

In reality, he was not angry at those small families at all, nor was he even angry at the Wang Family.

The reason he and these Elders were currently angry was because of the Sima Family. The pressure the Sima Family placed on them was simply too great, making them all somewhat temperamental.
