C8 The Words on the Stone Tablet Hugh

After a moment of commotion, the Song Family's main hall quietened down.

Everyone's gaze turned to the Ling Family in unison, waiting for their decision or to become a joke.

Naturally, this ceremony had turned into the Song Family's ceremony of annulling the engagement, because to their knowledge, none of the Ling Family juniors could leave a mark on the stone monument.

"Head of the Song Family, look at this …"

Ling Zhan cupped his hands towards Song Guang and said.

Song Guang however, waved his sleeve and said coldly: "Great Elder Ling, everyone has seen what your son Tianyu has said just now. Therefore, all of this will be done according to what my daughter has said.

Finished speaking, Song Guang slowly walked back to his seat. To resolve the problem in such a way was not something he had planned beforehand, but this was more of a blow to the Ling family than killing a piece of trash.

"Yes, this matter is the fault of your Ling family, Miss Wushuang is not exaggerating."

"That's right, hurry up and let the younger generation of the Ling Family show their skills. We'll be waiting to see."

The surrounding people's discussions were like countless sharp swords that penetrated the bodies of all the Ling Family members.

Ling Zhengnan, Ling Feiyang, and Ling Yu were all filled with rage, but they could only suppress it in their hearts.

Ling Zhan and Ling Xiao had pointed all their grievances towards Ling Tianyu. Although it was not appropriate for them to flare up now, they had already decided that they would drive him out of the Ling family when they returned.

"This stone tablet looks tough, but with my understanding of Sword Qi, I should be able to leave a mark if I concentrate my strength on one point. However, that way, I will completely expose my strength …"

Other than the few elders, the Patriarch, Third Uncle, and his father were all very good to him. This humiliation should not be endured by them, and it would also affect the future of the entire Ling Family.

"What is it? Is the younger generation of the Ling Family truly inferior to a weak girl like me, who does not even have the courage to display a single move? "

Song Wushuang's cold gaze swept across Ling Hao before finally landing on Ling Tianyu.

However, Ling Tianyu did not even glance at her. His gaze was completely focused on the stone tablet. In his heart, he had already made up his mind. No matter what, he would fight for the Ling Family.

Just as he started to walk towards the stone monument, a berating voice came from behind.

"Stop. You, a trash, want to embarrass yourself?"

The one who spoke was Ling Hao. He held a long sword in his hand, the Azure Sky Sword. It was the best sword in the Ling family's younger generation. This was the reward for being the Ling family's number one.

Walking forward a few steps, Ling Hao said to Song Wushuang: "Miss Wushuang, let me give it a try."

Ling Hao's expression was indifferent, and he was indeed a handsome man. In his heart, he still knew how important the Ling Family was to them.

Song Wushuang slightly smiled and made a gesture of "please". He said: "Please!"

He merely spat out two words before walking to the side. He even found a seat and leisurely sipped on his tea.

She was confident that even at the 10th level of the Body Refinement Realm, there was no way she could leave a mark on the stone tablet.

"Patriarch Song, your daughter seems to be very confident!" Ouyang Xiu's five senses greatly changed. For such a talented family to have someone with such talent, he felt a bit flattered.

"No, it should be because Wushuang is very confident in the City Lord's stone monument …"

Song Guang replied, meaning that all the credit went to Ouyang Xiu.

Hearing this, the latter lightly nodded his head and looked towards the stone monument in the center.

Ling Hao was already standing in front of the monument. His brows were tightly knitted, and he hadn't moved for a long time.

"Ling Hao, do your best!"

Ling Zhengnan casually said. It was obvious that the Ling family had given up.

"Miss Wushuang, sorry for the embarrassment!"

Ling Hao cupped his fist and looked in the direction of the Ling family as the Cyan Cloud Sword was unsheathed.

Silence once again filled the hall. Everyone stretched their necks and stared at Ling Hao.

Clank, clank …

Unsheathing his long sword, Ling Hao did his utmost to strike out. He used the first move of the Ling family's sword intent, the Ling family's first move, which landed on the stone monument.

Sparks flew in every direction as Ling Hao was forced a few steps back by the stone monument's recoil. That force almost sent the sword in his hand flying as well.

When he steadied his body, he discovered that the stone tablet he passed through was still as smooth as before, there wasn't a single trace left behind.

"How is this possible?"

Ling Hao could not believe it as he repeatedly shushed Qin Lie.

At this moment, someone had already scuttled over. After touching it with their hand, they shook their heads and said, "There are no sword marks on the stone tablet."

"Haha, like I said, even if this stone tablet was at the 10th level of the Body Refinement Realm, it still wouldn't leave any traces. His Ling Family actually still didn't know the difficulties and retreated."

"Heh, the young miss of the Song Family is truly peerless. She was actually able to leave a mark on the stone monument when she was only at the seventh level of the Body Refinement Realm. What a rare genius."

Countless sounds of flattery and curses towards the Ling family appeared.

Ling Hao's expression was cold, he clearly did not have the courage to use his second sword strike.

On the side, Song Wushuang put down his teacup and said leisurely: "Young Noble Ling Hao, you can chop a few more times. Who knows, you might even be able to injure the stone tablet!"

As the sound of his voice echoed, the crowd burst into another round of praises.

"Miss Song is truly righteous!"

However, the Ling Family members' expressions became even more unsightly. Ling Zhengnan stood up and said in a deep voice, "There's no need. Hao'er is not skilled and does not dare to embarrass himself again. Let the marriage between the Ling and Song Families end here!"

With that, Ling Zhengnan swung his sleeves and walked out the door.

Ling Hao and the rest all followed him. Ling Zhan and Ling Xiao glanced at Song Guang and the mayor, and had no choice but to turn around and leave.

"Wait …"

Just as the Ling Family members were about to step out of the door, a voice came from behind them.

Ling Feiyang turned around and saw that the voice was coming from Ling Tianyu. He asked in surprise, "Tianyu, why are you still not leaving?"

"Father, Patriarch, since this matter started because of me, can you let me end it?"

Ling Tianyu announced loudly. With his white robe fluttering in the wind, he cupped his fist and said to Ling Feiyang and Ling Zhengnan.

"You …" Ling Zhengnan turned around and asked as he frowned.

"Get the hell over here right now, aren't you ashamed of yourself?" Ling Zhan reprimanded loudly.

Ling Feiyang carefully examined his son, giving Ling Zhengnan and Ling Yu a look before asking, "How do you want to deal with this?"

"Didn't Miss Song just say that whoever leaves traces on the stone tablet will win? I want to give it a try! "

"What?" "That stone monument can't even leave a trace for a body refining tenth level martial artist, and you still …"

Before Ling Feiyang could finish speaking, the entire hall suddenly burst into laughter.

Haha, a person without a Martial Vein wants to leave a mark on this stone tablet. What a joke.

"In my opinion, if he were to use his full strength, he might be able to bite out a few teeth marks."

"That's right, hehe, even the trash of the Ling family has come. The Ling family is at the end of their rope."

All of these heartless words assaulted Ling Tianyu and the Ling Family, but Ling Tianyu's expression did not change as he resolutely said, "Father, Patriarch, please give me a chance!"

Ling Zhengnan's confident expression caused a sliver of doubt to flash across his face. Ling Tianyu had seen it all with his own eyes. If he wasn't sure of his victory, why would he embarrass himself again?

"Patriarch, this kid definitely has a grudge against our Ling Family. He wants to make our Ling Family lose face once again. Patriarch cannot agree!"

The two elders at the side hurriedly spoke up.

However, as the head of an influential family, Ling Zhengnan naturally had his own judgment.

"Patriarch Song, the younger generation of my Ling Family, Ling Tianyu, wants to give it a try. I wonder if it's possible?" Ling Zhengnan came back.

"For this matter, I'll follow my daughter's arrangements." Song Guang pointed at Song Wushuang, showing his status and status clearly.

Luckily, at least Song Wushuang knew some etiquette. Without waiting for Ling Zhengnan to ask, he said: "Sure, as long as you are a descendant of the Ling family, no matter who it is, you can try."

Ling Zhengnan nodded and looked towards Ling Tianyu. He really wanted to see what this kid was up to.

"Eh, Patriarch, I wonder if I can borrow Senior Brother Ling Hao's Cyan Cloud Sword?" Ling Tianyu didn't have a good weapon, and he wasn't confident that he could leave any traces behind.

"Who do you think you are? Do you know the identity of this sword?" Ling Hao hurriedly reprimanded.

"Alright, I'll lend it to you!"

Ling Zhengnan's words caused Ling Hao to shut his mouth immediately. He looked at Ling Tianyu with resentment and reluctantly passed the Cyan Cloud Sword to Ling Tianyu.

"It's best not to embarrass the Ling family. Otherwise, I will make you suffer!" Ling Hao said viciously.

Ling Tianyu didn't say anything. With a slight smile, he walked toward the stone monument.

The surrounding people were all ridiculing and mocking him. The Ling family's Ling Hao was a dignified eighth level Refinement Stage martial artist, he couldn't even leave a trace. How could a trash without Martial Veins destroy the stone tablet?

It was impossible to think about it, so his appearance on stage was just a joke.

The Song Family was also exceptionally relaxed. They were all waiting to mock the Ling Family again.

Clang...

With a clang, the Cyan Cloud Sword was abruptly unsheathed.

Then, a sword light flashed!

Sword attack! Converge into one!

Puff …

A dreamy sound appeared. Everyone looked carefully as the tip of the Cyan Cloud Sword in Ling Tianyu's hand directly sank into the stone tablet.

Three points into the rock!

"What?"

The large hall was filled with exclamations of surprise before it was completely silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Even Ling Zhengnan and the others stared with wide eyes.

They were well aware of Ling Tianyu's situation. A person without a martial arts meridian was actually able to stab into a stone tablet that could not be broken by any other martial artist.

Moreover, it was at the third part of the rock.

Silence, it was still silence. Everyone was frozen in place, as if they were all under the effect of a spell.

The mayor, Ouyang Xiu and Song Guang were both holding teacups in their hands, preparing to taste the tea. However, when they saw this scene, they did not move for a long time.

"How is this possible?! He actually stabbed through!"

"Could it be that this stone tablet is made of yellow mud?"

Song Rushuang rubbed her eyes with her plump hands and walked over to the stone monument.

CHI *

Ling Tianyu withdrew his sword, and the obvious sword mark was firmly engraved on the stone monument.

"Ai, this stone tablet is still not strong enough. I really didn't use any strength!" Ling Tianyu slowly said.

His words finally broke the atmosphere, and a lot of words came out one after another.

"Damn, he didn't use any strength. Is this kid really hiding his strength well?"

"Impossible! He's just a piece of trash! Could it be that something went wrong with the stone tablet?"

Song Wushuang did not say anything from beginning to end. His beautiful eyes stared at the sword mark on the stone tablet. A trace of unwillingness appeared in her heart.

"Impossible, impossible …"

Ling Hao muttered to himself. He thought that the stone tablet that even a martial practitioner at the eighth level of the Refinement Realm could not destroy had actually been destroyed by a piece of trash.

"Has there really been a problem with the stone tablet?"

The surrounding people did not dare to believe it. They all rushed forward to give it a try. However, apart from a series of sparks, there was nothing else left.

This time, they all knew that the Ling Family's Tianyu young master was not a trash, but was instead a martial artist comparable to the Congealed Dipper Realm.

However, his cultivation and martial skills were in the eyes of the Ling Family members, but everyone knew that now was not the time to discuss this matter.

In the eyes of those around him, since Ling Tianyu had managed to leave a mark on the monument, it meant that the marriage between the Song and Ling Families would continue.

Since the Song Family had produced Song Wushuang and the Ling Family had produced Ling Tianyu, if the two families were to be married off, then the two families would definitely be the leaders of this Cloud Leaving City.

This was something that Ling Zhan and Ling Xiao naturally thought of as well. They immediately smiled and said, "Patriarch Song, the younger generation of my Ling Family has done it. May I know about this marriage …?"

As long as it was related to the clan's interests, the two of them did not hate Ling Tianyu.

"Song Family Head, the Song Family and the Ling Family really impressed me this time. However, I still need to fulfill my promise."

Ouyang Xiu knew of Ling Tianyu's strength and made a decision in his heart.

"Ahem, of course." Song Guang's eyes flickered. He glanced at Song Wushuang and Song Rushuang, and said: "Since it was Wu-Shuang who made the promise, then it is also our Song Family's promise. Since that is the case, we will agree to the marriage between my nephew and my daughter, Ru Shuang."

Song Guang was certainly willing to exchange a gluttonous daughter for someone with astonishing talent and combat power. This kind of transaction only resulted in gains and no losses. Furthermore, he had the backing of the Medicine King Manor, so why should the Song Family worry about this?

"Haha, good. Clan Head Song, let's do this …"

Hearing Song Guang's words, Ling Zhan repeatedly cheered. However, before he could finish speaking, Ling Tianyu had already walked up to the stone monument.

"Wait!"

"Is there any problem with Tianyu's nephew?" Song Guang asked.

"Heh, Patriarch Song, if I remember correctly, my fiancée is Miss Wushuang, right?" Ling Tian smiled as he looked towards Song Wushuang, causing an ominous feeling to arise in the latter's heart.

"Tianyu nephew, before, your engagement was indeed to my daughter, Wu-Shuang. However, she is about to be chosen to enter the Medicine King Manor, so I can only betroth my daughter, Ru Shuang, to you. Today is also the day of your engagement to Ru Shuang."

"Oh, if I remember correctly, from the moment I entered until now, I did not seem to have heard about the matter regarding the marriage from Patriarch Song. Then, can I still assume that my fiancée is still Miss Wushuang?"

Ling Tianyu intentionally said so. Then, he turned to look at the city lord and asked, "Has the city lord heard of this?"

"Ugh …"

This question really did put Ouyang Xiu in a difficult position. The rest of them were thinking, just what is this kid trying to do?

"Indeed, it is my negligence. I will announce it now!" Song Guang hurriedly said.

Even so, the fact that the Ling family was remarried was a fact. The Ling family must bear this humiliation.

"No need!"

Ling Tianyu's words suddenly turned cold as if he had become a completely different person.

He drew his longsword and swung it towards the stone monument.

Clang clang clang …

Sparks flew in all directions from the stone tablet, and the sound of their collisions rang out with keng keng sound.

After the final strike, Ling Tianyu sheathed his sword and turned around to return to the Ling family's side.

As for the surrounding people, they were all focused on the stone tablet. When they saw everything on it, everyone was shocked.

Because on the stone monument, there was an eye-catching 'Xiu' word. Beside it, the words' Ling Tianyu, Xiu, and Song Wushuang 'were neatly engraved in the main hall of the Song Family! "In the future, the Song and Ling Families will no longer have anything to do with each other!"
