I wish you a long life and good health, and great merits.

When Song Lingfeng saw Zhao Minrou's pitiful appearance, he felt so distressed that he wanted to blurt out the promise.

But Song Qingqing's words suddenly came to my mind, and I suddenly came to my senses and felt embarrassed.

"Minrou, this is a big event for the clan. Out of respect, we should do our best."

Zhao Minrou: "..." Now that I have recovered my strength, I am the future head of the Zhao family. If you can't obey me, what use do I have for you? You useless thing, you don't even dare to do such a small thing.

"Not even once? This time is very important to me. Can't I give it back in the next competition? If I can't get the status of heir back, I'll just die. You can go, and let's just assume that we are not destined to be together." Zhao Minrou pretended to wipe away tears.

Song Lingfeng felt sorry for Zhao Minrou's sadness, and was also afraid that Zhao Minrou would leave him. When Song Lingfeng thought of Zhao Minrou leaving him, he felt that the rest of his life would be meaningless.

"Don't be sad, I promise."

"Thank you Ling Feng."

Seeing that Song Lingfeng agreed, Zhao Minrou found an excuse to leave.

Song Lingfeng looked at Zhao Minrou's happy back as she left. Thinking that Zhao Minrou was so happy because of him, he suddenly felt very satisfied and felt that everything he had done was worth it and right.

"I will apologize to mother later. You can beat me or scold me if you want. I am her biological son and she will definitely forgive me. Minrou said that she will let me come back next time. I just have to wait five more years.

I have worked hard for my family for decades, and now I just want to be with my beloved. It's just a few resources, I will make up for it in the future." Song Lingfeng comforted himself.

Zhao family.

Zhao Mingfei smiled and asked, "How is it?"

"As soon as I asked him to leave, he agreed immediately." So shameless.

"That's good. He's so obedient. Keeping him for use can also make that old woman Song Qingqing angry. You don't have to worry about her causing trouble for you, since your father is here. Anyway, it was her son who asked for it, so we are right and there is no need to be afraid." The Song family forced me to kill several people from the Zhao family. They all deserved to die.

"My daughter knows that it is a waste to not use a servant who is willing to help. Anyway, it is just a matter of talking and saying a few nice words."

Qian family.

Qian Nanchen found Qian Batian and said, "Dad, I have already found out the flaws in the Song family's swordsmanship. We don't have to be afraid of the Song family in this competition, even if the five contestants are all in the Nascent Soul stage."

"Okay, Nan Chen, you've worked hard. Song Jinxiu doesn't doubt it, right?"

"No, I used the excuse of practicing sword skills with her to spar with her, and finally found the flaw."

After the Song family's list of candidates for the competition came out, each of the five members of the Song family was at the Nascent Soul stage, which made the Zhao and Qian families very angry, and they both regarded the Song family as their number one enemy.

Song Qingqing was thinking about how to spread the news and had just come up with a plan.

Then we received news that a group of powerful sea monsters had come ashore in the southeast direction managed by the Song family, and the Yuanying stage cultivator in charge requested support from the elders.

It just so happened that the five elders had something to do, so Song Zhe told Song Qingqing the news.

Song Zhe is Song Qingqing's confidant. On the surface, his strength is mediocre, so he cannot appear in public and it is not convenient for him to go.

"Then I'll go and keep them busy. I just happened to be out for some work."

Song Qingqing went there in person and killed the sea monster with a wave of her hand, causing the Song family members who were guarding the sea to exclaim in amazement and worship her so much that they thought Song Qingqing was their god.

Everyone wants to be as powerful as Song Qingqing one day.

Song Qingqing expressed her condolences to them, telling them that they had worked hard and that the family would remember them, before leaving.

After hearing this, the people in the audience were all excited. Facing the sea, they no longer felt bored. Instead, they thought the sea, which they had seen thousands of times, was quite beautiful.

On the way back, Song Qingqing passed by the Qian family's territory and saw the second elder of the Qian family fighting monsters on the beach.

Seeing that the second elder of the Qian family could handle it, Song Qingqing ignored it and prepared to go and make trouble. As a result, she saw an old man jumping into the sea with tears on his face.

"Don't be afraid, my dear grandson! Grandpa is here to accompany you."

Song Qingqing also knew this old man. The grandfather and grandson depended on each other for survival and usually made a living by going out to sea to fish and telling stories.

The old man was a very good storyteller and he would occasionally go to a restaurant to tell stories. Song Qingqing had even listened to him tell stories in a restaurant.

Song Qingqing released the vines and tried to pull him out of the sea.

But the old man refused. When he saw Song Qingqing trying to save him, he scratched his neck with his fingernails.

Then he looked at Song Qingqing with pleading eyes, asking her not to bother him.

Song Qingqing watched the blood-stained sea water and watched the old man being eaten up by fish until not even a bone was left.

Song Qingqing sighed and was about to leave when suddenly an idea flashed in her mind. Song Qingqing looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she immediately turned into the appearance of an old man.

“No matter how perfect something is, it is not as convincing and impeccable as a true story that happens to be true and meets the conditions.”

Song Qingqing immediately changed the candidate and decided to use the more suitable candidate, Qian Zhiqiang, the second elder of the Qian family, as the breakthrough point.

Song Qingqing asked the old man about his affairs. Not long ago, a sea monster came up, and his grandson didn't wait for Qian Zhiqiang to come, and was accidentally injured by the sea monster and died.

Song Qingqing imitated the old man's voice, recorded a voice clip, and then sent it to Qian Zhiqiang.

Finally, he pretended to be heartbroken. At dusk, when the sky was gray, he came to the edge of the cliff intentionally looking heartbroken. Along the way, he deliberately let a few people he knew see him.

"Wow, wow, wow... My dear grandson, don't be afraid! Grandpa is here to accompany you."

Then, amid calls, exclamations, and in full view of everyone, he jumped off the cliff and ended his life.

Song Qingqing held the water-repellent beads in her mouth and quietly left from the other side while it was dark and windy at night.

On the other side, Qian Zhiqiang returned to his residence exhausted. Although he was very tired, his mind was unusually clear.

The unusually quiet environment at home made Qian Zhiqiang feel irritated.

"Baby, daddy's baby, woo woo woo..."

Qian Zhiqiang habitually reached for the wine gourd at his waist and took two sips of the liquor before he felt a little better.

Qian Zhiqiang had quit drinking for decades, but since Qian Baobao's death, Qian Zhiqiang started drinking again.

Qian Zhiqiang got married when he was almost 400 years old. After a hundred years, his wife became pregnant. She was pregnant for 10 months and spent 9 months protecting the fetus. The birth of a child was really not easy, so Qian Zhiqiang named her Qian Baobao.

Qian Zhiqiang is a daughter slave. He is so afraid of Qian Baobao melting if he holds her in his mouth that she might melt, and so afraid of breaking her if he holds her in his hands that he even gave up his favorite alcohol.

His wife thought he was too old and ran away with someone else, and since then she has been dependent on Qian Baobao.

As a result, Qian Baobao's fate was broken a few months ago. He was never seen alive, and his body was never found after his death.

Qian Zhiqiang felt like the sky was falling. His daughter, who was so old and so well-behaved, whom he had raised with great difficulty, was gone just like that.

Everyone said it was an accident, but he didn't believe it. Unfortunately, after several months of investigation, nothing was found.
