"Have you heard? Qin Hao, the young master of the Qin family, is back!"
"You mean Qin Hao, the one who won the Genius Tournament?"
"That's right! And he's heading for the Liu family now. Looks like he's going to raise hell."
"Heh, he really has a death wish. Does he actually think he can bring down the Liu family? They've got the Lei family of Myriad Phenomena Hall backing them now!"
"Whatever happens, we're in for a good show..."
News of Qin Hao's return swept through Tianshui City like a hurricane, stirring waves of uproar.
Many people sneered. Although Qin Hao had taken first place in Tianshui City's Genius Tournament, the Liu family's backer was Lei Zhen, a genius of the Inner Hall.
In everyone's eyes, Qin Hao was simply asking for trouble!
More and more people headed toward the Liu Residence, all eager to see how the Liu family would humiliate Qin Hao.
The Liu Residence, Tianshui City.
The Liu family now reigned supreme in Tianshui City. Every Liu family disciple swaggered with pride, and even their servants strutted about with their noses in the air, regarding everyone else as beneath them.
Inside a grand, imposing mansion, more than a dozen people sat upright.
On the left sat Liu Fangzhi, the Liu family head, along with the family's many elders. Liu Ruoxue and Yue Yilin were also among them.
On the right side of the hall sat Chen Yuntian, Chen Huo, and the other members of the Chen family.
At that moment, Chen Yuntian, Chen Huo, and the others all wore grim expressions.
Once one of Tianshui City's three great families, the Chen family had also suffered the Liu family's suppression during the upheaval. Their holdings had shrunk drastically, and they were now huddled within the city.
