The Legacy System

Seeing that their Young Master was only one small step before falling completely to his grave, the Ling Family Elders couldn't care about keeping appearances anymore, so they launched an attack.

"Hand over the antidote pill, now~!"

It wasn't only one anymore, but all but one who stayed behind to protect the Young Master should one of those shameless Cao Family guys decide to act upon him.

"Courting death!"

How could the Cao Family people let something like this happen right in front of their eyes!? After all, even their Young Master was in the same position.

While he wasn't as bad as Young Master Ling was, as Young Master Ling received Eric's attack a few moments ago which clearly caused him injuries.

Still, the fact stood that this kind of poison would take him his life if he didn't receive the antidote pill in a short time.

'BOOOOOMMMMMMM~!' x5

All of a sudden 5 powerful and extremely loud explosions were heard due to the impact of the elders clashing.

The Ling and Cao Families people seemed to have broken all decorum and were now fighting each other seriously.

The impact of the five clashes was truly powerful, as it threw a lot of tables away, breaking almost all the windows around the venue and even sending quite a few people flying and crashing to the walls.

Many of these guys were those that hadn't accepted Eric's price and hadn't bought the antidote pill when he was distributing them, thinking that they would get it as long as they supported the Ling and Cao Families.

Unfortunately not only hadn't they received the antidote pill, but they were also in such a terrible position now, as there was only one antidote pill, and the two Families were fighting each other.

None of them had the ability or opportunity to actually seek that antidote pill for their selves, as it would be just like seeking death when the death reaper was standing in front of them.

Just looking at the impact of the two sides clashing they could easily understand just how weak they actually were when facing these people.

Realm 4 and Realm 5 experts were nothing to joke around, and the difference between Realms grew much bigger with each higher Realm.

The one who was in the worst position at the moment now though was the poor Li Pimp, who didn't know what to do in this time and position.

Neither the Ling nor the Cao Families were existences that he could actually afford to offend and provoke. This damn antidote pill was stuck in his hands, and he understood that he had been trapped.

That little bastard had truly set up an impossible trap for him, as no matter which side he picked, and no matter which side he dared to offend, he was surely going to suffer for it.

As he was thinking like that, he suddenly saw something extremely strange in front of him, as the Ling Family Elder that was taking care of his Young Master took out a similar pill from his pocket.

Apparently, he wasn't the only one who noticed this startling fact, as more and more of the people at the venue seemed to forget about the battles of experts and were fully focused on that spot.

"You bastards, it seems like you are truly the ones that planned everything! Aren't you afraid of enraging the ghosts and spirits with your actions!?"

No one cared who said those words anymore, as those words managed to awaken each and every one of them from the momentary stupor as they saw the Ling Family people with rage, anger, and fury.

These bastards were so sly and evil that they were even putting such a show in front of the crowd when they already had the antidote pills in their hands.

The faces of the Cao Family Elders, and especially Young Master Cao who was on the brink of death himself was pitch black, and extremely ugly, as the leading Elder said in fury,

"Good, good, what a good Ling Family! You bastards actually dare to set up this trap and even risk the life of my Cao Family Young Master!

Your shamelessness and malice are truly beyond this old one's expectations, I will make sure to return them to you one day!

Now don't tell me that you still plan to actually fight with us for this antidote pill!"

The Ling Family Elders that were fighting were probably the ones that were the most shocked by this whole mess, as they didn't understand what the hell was going on.

That Elder that was protecting Young Master Ling was the same, as he had no idea how this pill had appeared in his pocket either.

'Cough…, cough…'

At that moment it didn't matter though as the most important thing right now was to actually save his Young Master, everything would be solved later.

Now that the antidote pill had been found and was given to their Young Master, the Ling Family people didn't have any more reason to continue fighting for the one in Li Pimp's hands.

Li Pimp also felt that he had just escaped a terrible fate and that his Li Family would be safe as long as the fight stopped when suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his back.

Without wasting time he quickly twisted his body right at the moment and sent a full-strength palm toward whoever was behind him.

'Baaannnggg…, Swoooooshhh…, Booooooommmmmm~!'

The palm connected perfectly with the attacker's chest, as he even felt a spongy feeling as that happened, as Madam Li was sent flying towards the wall and crashed right through it.

After witnessing the death of her child and deciding that this was the fault of the bastard Li Pimp, and Master Gao, she immediately decided to take her revenge on the one she could.

Since Master Gao had escaped her rage and had actually died before she could do anything, she had decided to make her Master, Li Pimp suffer for his guilt.

This bastard she had done so much for and had given so much for had not only denied everything, clearly disregarding their blood child, the fruit of their love, but had even killed him.

That was something that she couldn't swallow! Now that her son was dead she didn't see any reason to continue living, and even more so a reason for that bastard to continue living.

For that reason, she hadn't cared about her life even when Li Pimp's palm attack had landed on her chest and was only focused on stabbing further with the knife in her hand.

The force of Li Pimp's palm attack had pierced through her chest, almost fully destroying her insides and her heart.

It was a great miracle that she was able to take even one extra breath after that happened, as she was even thrown out of the venue.

The situation inside became even more dangerous, tense, and complicated, as Li Pimp had now a knife stabbed on his back, which had gone right through his left kidney, and destroyed it.

His situation was already not good as he had the poison inside his body, but now he had also to deal with the wound and his shattered kidney.

If it was just a mere wound then there wouldn't be much of a problem, but it was his kidney that had been shattered, and his resistance towards the poison had immediately been halved at that moment.

Right now he wasn't much different from Young Master Ling and Young Master Cao. In fact, his condition was even worse as he even had to think and focus on regenerating his kidney.

The dilemma that seemed to have been relieved just a moment ago turned back, and this time even bigger and more difficult than before. Right now he had to choose between his own life and that of Young Master Cao.

The Elders from the Cao Family seemed to have understood this as well, as they looked at Li Pimp with ferocious expressions, as the leader said,

"Don't even think about it Patriarch Li! If you take that antidote pill then I can assure you that your Li Family will cease to exist!"

Li Patriarch was extremely enraged and infuriated at this moment, not because he was being cornered and threatened like that.

He understood that the truth was on the side of whoever had the strongest fist, and his fists weren't enough against either the Cao or the Ling Families.

But because all this shit was happening right after he had achieved his lifelong wish of becoming the Patriarch of the Li Family, and its leader.

He was thinking of making the Li Family a force that no one would dare to trifle with easily, but just as his dream was getting on the path of realization, seemed to be crushed to dust.

Now he had to choose between his own life and his Li Family, but what meaning did the existence and rise in power of the Li Family had, when he wasn't alive to witness and enjoy it.

For that reason, while the dilemma in front of him was extremely difficult, the choice was already extremely clear in his heart.

Once he decided upon that, he didn't lose any more time, and without hesitation, he turned around and ran away while leaving a loud and clear message behind,

"Your Cao Family thinks that you can take down my Li Family!? Just try it! One day I will return and personally send you to Hell to revenge their souls if that happens!"

The whole venue was left in shock…
