Chapter 34: Well Fought

Seeing Qin Ming speak like this, the old man emboldened himself and began to explain in detail.

It turned out that the contract was terminated by the Eldest Young Master of the Chen Family; originally, the Eldest Young Master of the Chen Family was the heir to the Chen Family.

Since he wanted to terminate the contract with the Qin Family, most people in the Chen Family agreed.

The reason the Chen Family terminated the contract was indeed related to Qin Ming; Qin Ming had beaten the Eldest Miss of the Chen Family and then the Eldest Young Master of the Chen Family.

Unable to swallow his anger, the Eldest Young Master of the Chen Family advocated for terminating the contract with the Qin Family.

"Unreasonable!" Qin Yuan slammed the table violently, stood up, and said, "This Chen Family is simply too much."

"Scuffles between juniors are perfectly normal, yet they actually escalated this to a matter between families over such a trivial thing."

Liu City wasn't large to begin with, so brawls between juniors were a common occurrence.

If fights between the younger generation escalated into Family conflicts, the families in Liu City would have no time for anything else.

They might as well spend all day dealing with the children's squabbles.

Qin Ming also shook his head, not expecting the Eldest Young Master of the Chen Family to be so narrow-minded.

Since he couldn't win the fight himself, he called upon his Family's Power, using the Chen Family to bully the Qin Family.

At this moment, the other Elders of the Qin Family also received news of the Chen Family terminating the contract and hurried over one after another.

"Father, actually, as for why they came to our door to pick a fight, it starts from what happened yesterday…"

Qin Ming gave a detailed account of how the Eldest Miss of the Chen Family had bullied his younger sister, Qin Qing, the day before.

"Outrageous! How dare they strike the jewel of our Qin Family? We will fight them to the bitter end."

Every one of the Elders was filled with righteous indignation. Qin Qing was a child they had watched grow up, a precious treasure they had always pampered. How could they let it slide after she was hit by an outsider?

Moreover, hitting her wasn't the end of it; they even dared to provoke them at the Qin Family's doorstep today. This was truly beyond endurance.

"But our Family doesn't have an Alchemist. How can we fight the Chen Family?" one Elder spoke up.

Instantly, the Elders who were just filled with righteous indignation became like eggplants hit by frost; they all lowered their heads, their faces turning ashen.

They also knew that fighting the Chen Family was just talk; they had the heart for it but lacked the strength.

The strongest Martial Artist in the Qin Family was only at the Martial Master Peak, while the Chen Family had a Martial Artist with the strength of the Grand Martial Master Realm.

In terms of raw strength, the Qin Family couldn't beat the Chen Family. Even in terms of soft Power, the Qin Family had no Alchemist and was not as wealthy as the Chen Family.

No matter the aspect, the Qin Family was no match for the Chen Family.

Seeing this, Qin Ming shook his head. He felt that the Qin Family really needed to strengthen its Power.

It wouldn't do for everything to rely on him, the Pill God, to solve.

His time wasn't that worthless. It seemed that increasing the Qin Family's strength was a matter of utmost urgency.

Furthermore, if the Qin Family had the strength, he could have sent Bodyguards to protect his sister when she went out, and the incident of Qin Qing being hit wouldn't have happened.

Also, Qin Ming knew that there was a Power watching their Family from the shadows. If their Family were even slightly careless, they would be beyond redemption.

There was no logic in being on guard forever; Qin Ming secretly decided to cultivate some Power of his own and also raise the Family's strength.

Qin Ming couldn't let the Family's morale stay like this; he had to give everyone some confidence. He said:

"Everyone, who says our Family doesn't have an Alchemist?"

"Our Family has an Alchemist? As an Elder, how could I not know that our Family has an Alchemist?"

"Was he just recently invited? Where is he?" a grey-haired Elder stepped forward and asked.
