C566 Questioning
Before the surrounding Martial Cultivator Warlocks could raise any objections, one of the Patriarchs of the Zheng Family could no longer sit still.
"Chairman Zheng, how can you let a new daughter-in-law sit in the lead!" said as he stood up.
Zhou Qingyang was also a famous Arts Sect Master in Southeast Asia, he was the first Patriarch of the Hong Kong Zheng Family, before Hua Yingxiong came, Zhou Qingyang's position was unparalleled.
At that time, Zhou Qingyang would be seated at the head of the table, and even Zheng Xiao Hai, Zheng Jiacai and his son would have to be under him.
Respect for the Arts Sect Master, was also the reason why Hong Kong Zheng Family had swiftly risen to prominence in the span of more than ten years.
However, following the arrival of Hua Yingxiong, his status changed.
He first lost his chief, and then gradually left the core of the Hong Kong Zheng Family.
As things had developed to this point, he was not even able to go to the main table. This took a huge blow to Zhou Qingyang's self-esteem.
He was indeed not as strong as Hua Yingxiong, but he was much stronger than the other Arts Master.
Hong Kong Zheng Family didn't like him, but if he went to another clan, it would definitely be sought after by everyone.
Thinking about it here, Zhou Qingyang felt a bad taste in his heart.
This kind of suppressed emotion would always accompany Zhou Qingyang, and he only needed to wait for an appropriate time before it would burst out.
And today, it just so happened to be the right time.
He could not sit in the seat of honor, and he could not even enter the main table. Zhou Qingyang had thought that the Hong Kong Zheng Family had some sort of esteemed guest.
But now it seemed that the most respected guest in Zheng Family was actually Loong Miaoyu.
Who was Loong Miaoyu? She was a direct descendent of the New Country.
Although he was born in a wealthy family, Loong Miaoyu's status was special, it was not even comparable to some of his bastard sons.
If not, New Country would not have married her far away from the Hong Kong Zheng Family.
Although Hong Kong Zheng Family was the richest man in Asia in name, in reality, Hong Kong Zheng Family was not even one of the richest men in Asia.
Many of the invisible rich and powerful had strength that far surpassed Hong Kong Zheng Family. Even though they were all young talents on the Forbes Ranking, there were still many people whose strength surpassed Zheng Family.
For example, the old horse of a certain treasure, or the Shi Mann of Heavenly Court Finance, or the Cao Yun of Immortal Cloud Spirit Water.
Although the strength of these people were not as strong as Hong Kong Zheng Family, they were not far from Zheng Family.
As for the invisible tycoons, they numbered even more.
The island nation's Mitsui Consortium, the India's Gandhi family, the Russian Zither family, the Saudi royal family, the Kuwaiti royal family, the imperial court's fat family, the four great families, the five great wealthy families, and the Korea's Lee Family family.
Just in terms of the total economy, these clans might not be as good as Hong Kong Zheng Family, but they were all more or less linked to politics, and could control a country's situation.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that as long as the country was still alive, they would always be a great clan and would always be superior to others.
In comparison, their Hong Kong Zheng Family were much weaker. No matter how strong they were, in the end, they were only merchants.
The status of New Country far exceeded that of the Hong Kong Zheng Family. If it was the direct daughter of the Loong Family, she would at most have an alliance with a large clan with Philippines. This was the perfect match.
Even if it was a waste, the other three great clans of the New Country were also a very good choice.
Being far away from the Hong Kong Island was enough to show that Loong Miaoyu did not have a high position in the Long family.
A low status Loong Family child, a newly enrolled Zheng Family daughter-in-law, had actually climbed onto Zhou Qingyang's head.
"Indeed, it's a bit excessive. Grandmaster Zhou is still a Arts Sect Master, you can't be so negligent!"
"Although Grandmaster Zhou is not as good as Grandmaster Hua, he is still one of the top figures in Arts Sect Master. Even if you cannot sit at the head of the table, you should still enter the main table! "
"If we don't handle the Zheng Family well this time, I'm afraid that it will force Grandmaster Zhou away!"
Some of the smaller families even had the presumptuous thought that if Grandmaster Zhou leaves the Zheng Family due to anger, they would definitely try to rope him in.
With the Arts Sect Master taking charge, the clan's rise would not be a difficult matter.
"Zhou Qingyang, how dare you speak to the Young Madam like that!" Hua Yingxiong shouted.
"Hua Yingxiong, don't shout at me, although you are stronger than me, if we are fighting, I will not lose to you easily, we are all from Arts Sect Master, if you can sit at the main table, I can also win!" Zhou Qingyang said.
Whether it was arcane skills or martial arts, they were all the same principle.
It was actually very difficult to determine victory or defeat in a battle of the same level.
The so called victory and defeat often depended on the rules agreed upon by the Arts Master, and the results of the competition under certain conditions.
This kind of competition was very similar to the examinations in the student days. Under the same conditions, the two sides' understanding of the arts were compared.
Since it was an exam, there was a certain randomness in the result.
After all, this was not a real fight, and the rankings could only represent one aspect.
The spiritual energy of the entire earth was exhausted. Whether it was the arts or the martial arts, it was inevitable that the apocalypse would come.
In this situation, a Zongshi realm expert was even more precious than a giant panda.
If that was the case, the battles between two masters would always end when the point was reached.
Regardless of whether it was Xuanyuan Hao's attack on the Central Plains in the north or the fact that Sword Saint Yamamoto Ryuichi had crossed the ocean to come from the east, wherever he went, very few experts died.
had opened up a new territory for himself, so he could not take things too far.
However, the Sword Saint of the Island had come with a hatred for his people, and had not killed anyone.
All of the experts had an unwritten agreement: Feng Shui rotated, and it was unknown when the day would come when the defeated opponent would receive the ancient inheritance and become an undefeatable expert in a single leap.
If too many enemies were made, it would inevitably bring about a fatal disaster.
Rather than that, it was better to give each other face. I can beat you today, but I won't kill you.
Even if you win against me tomorrow, you will let me go.
Zhou Qingyang was confident that he did not dare to kill him, which was why he was making such a move.
However, he chose the wrong person at the wrong time.
Under the gaze of the crowd, Loong Miaoyu slowly stood up. Her beautiful eyes were flashing with a strange light, as if a god was sizing up all the living beings.
"Zhou Qingyang, do you want to sit in my seat?" Loong Miaoyu's voice was like a silver bell, beautiful and pleasant to the ear, like the sounds of nature.
Many people were immersed in the beautiful sounds, and a few young Martial Cultivator Warlocks were even envious of Zheng Wenan's luck with women.
But Lu Fanfeng's body trembled. Others might not be able to hear it, but he could hear it clearly.
His voice was like a silver bell, actually hiding an old and sinister voice that sounded like it came from the dead of night.1
"So what if I am!" Zhou Qingyang said arrogantly, if Hua Yingxiong or the other Arts Sect Master were to inquire, Zhou Qingyang would still be afraid.
But, for a girl that wasn't even a Arts Master, Zhou Qingyang didn't need to be afraid of his at all.
"That will depend on whether you have the strength or not!" Loong Miaoyu smiled strangely, that smile seemed to come from the depths of hell.
Seeing this smile, Lu Fanfeng's heart could not help but sink, and subconsciously muttered, "Zhou Qingyang is dead for sure!"
