This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Yue Lei Wang’s words dropped and the battle began. Yue Jing and Yue Ming vanished from their positions and appeared in the middle of the ring of fire. Their blades clashed producing a big Clang noise.

However, none of them took a step back. Yue Jing was angry but she was not letting this negativity consume her wisdom. She never underestimated her opponents, this was the first thing she learned from the teachers who taught her how to wield a weapon. The next thing she was told happened to be a trick, think of the battle as a round of fishing. You set the bait and throw it on the line, then you wait for the fish to take it.

Yue Jing had been learning it all and she came to understand that to place the bait you need to find the right timing as well. So the two exchanged blows, and the clanging noises echoed on the training ground. Everyone family member was looking at the duel in silence. The display of sword art was so mesmerizing to them.

On the other hand, Yang Dao closed his eyes to meditate as he sat beside Jenny. The lady caressed his head gently and asked, “Dao, why are you not looking at the battle? Jing is winning.”

Yang Dao shook his head and said, “She will win, but I do not want to watch her fight.”

The lady thought that the boy was being emotional and said, “It is okay to be emotional but one should not face away from such situations Dao.”

The boy turned his head to glance at the lady and without saying he went back to meditation. Jenny asked with eyes wide open, “Brat, did you just disdain me?”.ᴄᴏᴍ

Athena spoke up in a low voice, “Madam, I mean, grandma, he just does not want to rush up in the middle of the fight and give them pointers. He has a sickness. If someone plays loose, he cannot help but correct their mistakes.”

Jenny was surprised at her statement. She chuckled and said, “Dao, will you do this to your enemy as well?”

The boy replied without opening his eyes, “Only my friends are capable of getting a reaction from me. If the enemy wants to die with some fancy but hollow skill, then that is up to them.”

He did not wish to change or model his words. Athena shook her head in exasperation. This child would never save face for anyone. Yue Yun on the side was the only one who did not want to reprimand this boy for passing a glance at his grandmother.

Suddenly, a low exclamation attracted their attention. Inside the ring of fire, Yue Jing’s arm was grazed by an attack. Yue Ming suddenly stopped in his tracks after this attack and said, “If you apologize to me, I will spare you. Admit defeat and give up.”

Yue Jing gazed at her arm and then raised her head to look at Yue Ming as she sighed and shook her head. She said, “All my life, I looked for a shred of love from you and your father. I followed everything you said, never even caring for my self-respect. Only recently did I find out what I should have done. I should have turned faces from you two as you did from me.”

Yue Jiren was surprised to see this girl digging up the hidden truth in front of the whole family. Yue Ming on the other hand panicked and said, “What nonsense, when did we not love you?”

Yue Jing chuckled and said, “You love me in front of the family members. In front of the strangers, however, since you have asked me, I shall brush up your memory, when you asked me to wash your feet in the sect when you absconded the majority of my cultivation resources when your father would call me a good for nothing when your father would call me a monster, a monster who killed my mother in labor. That was when you did not love me.”

Her words sent a wave of murmur among the crowd and everyone became suspective of Yue Jiren and Yue Ming all of a sudden. The youngster inside the ring of fire could sense this and he moved. He decided to defeat his sister before she could say anything even more. Yue Jing did not shy away. The blades clashed once again.

This time, Yue Jing held back on the attack force, making it seem like she had weakened. Yue Ming was waiting for such a lax moment in Yue Jing’s play and his attacks became stronger. The elders who were supporting the boy earlier saw this and they frowned. If the guy just wanted to spar and challenge his sister, he did not need to be so aggressive.

Athena held the back of Yang Dao’s robe with her palm, but the boy did not wake up. As the people were getting worried and concerned about Yue Jing, the girl smiled and dashed forward as she ducked. The speed was fast, and Yue Ming did not expect his weakling sister to have such a trick, but when he thought his head would fly off, a punch on his chin jolted him with pain and he reeled back holding his chin.

What followed next was even more brutal the sword held in Yue Jing’s hand seemed to have become a weapon of wrath. She started cutting and stabbing Yue Ming with no hesitation. The attacks were made with strength that will heal him with just one healing pill. However, suddenly, just when everyone thought that this battle was going to be over. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ​ꪶ​

Yue Ming let out a roar. The roar was not from pain but from rage. He hated the fact that he was being defeated by his weakling sister. But that was not it. Yue Jing said, “Do you remember when was the last time you smiled at me?”

Before Yue Ming could say anything the girl said, “I am not asking for a smile laced with disdain. But a meaningful true smile. Can you remember?”

The family had begun to feel pain after hearing her words and felt great pain for her in their hearts. Someone asked, “Is it true? Can someone really have this sort of behavior toward their sister? How can he do that?”

A lady said, “When a mother is no more, it falls upon the father to teach his kids. Given that Yue Jiren is always on about the patriarchy, this is not surprising to me. I just feel pity for this girl.”

The votes of confidence had begun to fall for Yue Jing quickly as well. This was something YueJiren hated, he did not want them to favor his daughter and passed a message to Yue Ming using telepathy.

“Kill her.”

The order was crisp and clear. Yue Ming nodded at his father and moved. A small pill appeared in his grip and he charged forward to fight his sister with no emotion in his eyes. The people began to curse him for being so cruel.

However, just as Yue Ming was about to close in, the youngster slashed his sword horizontally and Yue Jing ducked at the last moment and moved to the side. The sword in her hand flashed and what everyone heard was a puff sound. Yue Jing stood up and her sword was stained with blood.

Yue Jiren yelled, “MINGGG…”

His voice was the thunder on a cloudless night. His daughter just moved a sword through his son’s digestion system and left an incision as deep as two fingers. Unable to control himself he moved and appeared in the center of the ring of fire. He held Yue Ming in his arms and said, ” You abominable girl, first you killed your mother and now you harmed your brother so deeply. What do you wish to see, the demise of us all?”

Yue Jing snapped back at him, glaring at her father, “Have you finally shown your true colors, Yue Jiren? Hahaha, yes I am an abomination and I wish to see this treasured son of yours crumpling under my feet.”

Watching the girl speak so rampantly he yelled, “You dare!!!”

“I DO!!!” replied Yue Jing with a voice so strong that Yue Jiren lost in comparison. The girl continued, “You and your son, never loved me, but this guy, who I ran after like he was the hope of my life, tried to destroy my cultivation? That too in front of everyone. Do you think I will take this laying down? Who gave you two such courage? You were the one who commanded him to do this to me right? Tell me, was it my fault that my mother died during birth, or was it something else? You could not deal with the loss and you blamed me, pathetic.

You never treated me as a human let alone a daughter. I feel ashamed to call you my father, Yue Jiren. Patriarch, announce the result of the duel, I would like to administer some medicine.”

Her words left everyone surprised, and Yang Dao smiling. Yue Lei Wang said, “Winner, Yue Jing. If you all have no objection then she is the young matriarch of the family.”

Yue Jiren was about to say something when Yang Dao moved and appeared in front of him. The middle-aged man was surprised, and Yang Dao bent down and picked up a white pill from the ground. He sniffed and mumbled, “Spirit Corrosion Pill. Grade four poison. Such a heavy hand, Yue Ming.”

His voice was low but the chill radiating from it was scary. He did not care about the youngster on the ground, whose stomach was left with an open wound. The Dao Child cast a gaze at Yue Jiren and said, “Do you have a healing pill?”

Yue Jiren nodded and fed it to his son. Yang Dao turned around and walked back to Yue Jing, he stood in front of her and said, “If you feel soft now, I will break every connection with you.”

Yue Jing smiled and said softly, “You do not have to be like this, they do not hold any meaning to me now. I owe them nothing.” she turned around to look at all the elders and asked, “Elders, can I use a few rights as the young matriarch?”

The elders nodded and Yue Jing said, “I would like to imprison Yue Ming and his father in the family prison. They do not understand the meaning of the family, so what is the need to have them live here. He failed in the duties of a father, and an elder. Over the years, he had misused the power granted to him for his personal gains. I wonder what you all have to say?”

Yue Ming was stunned, but Yue Jiren started laughing hard, and his aura started to radiate. He wanted to suppress Yue Jing, but the girl said, “I beseech the elders to take an appropriate action.”

With this said, the elders of the family stood up. Yue Lei Wang also stood up and said, “The Young Matriarch has spoken, what are you waiting for, subdue these two.”
