Chapter 562: The Greatest Sadness in Life
Michelle’s matters were settled and there were unexpected surprises as well.
The ash tide receded, and from now on, the world’s landscape began to shift.
Bai Wei now has the possibility to walk freely and doesn’t have to stay in one place.
Fighting is a hobby, work is a pursuit, and slacking off is life.
The adult always says, "If the enemy doesn’t move, I won’t move." So if I don’t need to move, I won’t.
Yun Chuyou will eventually return to the Ming Country. Even if she can fly, she can’t catch up with a Boeing airplane by flying on her sword. She still has to sit on a boat and travel honestly. Although there are engines in this world, it’s clear that the technology for flying in the sky is not advanced enough to go around the earth in a day.
Even if it’s fast, it still takes at least two to three weeks.
We still have plenty of time, so there’s no need to hurry.
Michelle is a cute, innocent, and romantic girl. She is understanding, intelligent, obedient, and independent.
Being a village girl with these super rare and super strong attributes is not something everyone can handle.
For now, we can still deceive her, but in the future, who knows? She might grow up to be a land fairy no less powerful than Chao Lu.
Scary, scary…
If we say Michelle is in the latter stage, it’s not difficult to deal with her in the early and middle stages, but the other person is heavyweight.
Bai Wei didn’t really want to go, but he still had to take a look.
He switched login accounts, used the boost from the small golden tree to connect with the golden mother tree, copied the location anchor through the spiritual world ocean, found the specific coordinates of his consciousness descending, and then crossed the ocean.
Judy Selvicer.
Moving illusions appeared before his eyes, Golden Power restored to the intermediate level, and Bai Wei’s soul perception also elevated, being able to sense the situation she was facing at the moment and even read her mood.
The situation is not very good.
…
On both sides of the high platform, a large crowd sat neatly dressed, observing and overlooking the opponents, while the two in the middle of the confrontation looked like sisters.
"Oh, how did it suddenly become like this?" Sasha sighed, holding her forehead.
The peaceful clan meeting suddenly turned into this situation, and as the governor and host, she felt unlucky.
It’s not a matter of blame, but all the affairs within the clan, big or small, need her approval. She also needs to report the results to all the clan members.
The internal structure of the bloodline is like a big company and many subsidiaries. Even among bloodline families, there are differences.
Family secrets should not be exposed to others, even if they involve close relatives. After living for so many years as a bloodline, she still wasn’t thick-skinned enough. The older and more attached to bloodlines, the easier their skin peels from a little sun exposure. They even need to apply some yellowing wax to look lively.
That’s why the current situation is rare.
It’s a confrontation between mother and daughter, or rather, a battle for the right to inherit the family.
Sasha’s eyes showed a hint of annoyance and helplessness. She was kept in the dark about this matter and knew nothing about it.
Because during this time, she was happily enjoying hotpot with Bai Wei, having some stronger alcohol and spicy soup. After they were full and left, she heard that a proposal had already been directly submitted to the Elder Council, bypassing her and submitted by the daughter of the Selvicer family.
Sasha leaned against the seat, tapping the armrest with her fingers.
She didn’t think that blood relatives necessarily had to love each other, as long as they didn’t cause any harm. Being a little hostile to each other wasn’t a bad thing. Competition is about mutual interaction, and internal competition, as long as it’s controlled within a certain range, can also generate internal motivation.
But sometimes, when internal conflicts are too great, they can become obstacles to development. At that time, it’s necessary to resolve the root cause of the conflicts.
Among the blood relatives, each family has only one family head, who is like a representative chosen by the family. They have the right to vote and make decisions in certain meetings. They are the key figure of the family.
The family head’s knowledge and abilities largely determine how far the family can develop and to what extent. It’s the standard leadership effect.
Also, to prevent the dwindling power of the blood relatives from being consumed in internal fights, if the Elder Council approves it, the family head can be changed forcibly.
The tradition that blood relatives believe in is not elegance, but claws, which means the supremacy of strength-oriented groups.
Changing the family head means defeating the opponent. The methods of doing so change with the times. Both sides owe each other a contract and must follow the rules in their confrontation.
Wisdom or force, they are both forms of exhibiting power.
The current situation is a family’s internal struggle, and it is a rare case of the underdog rising.
It has only happened a few times in the history of the bloodline, with the last time being a hundred and fifty years ago, and the underdog also failed.
There is a big age difference among the bloodline, and the long lifespan of the race means that growth is not fast enough. Accumulation and heritage are the most important.
So… you are too hasty, too young, Judy Selvicer.
Although you can’t compare to the level of super geniuses like Michelle and Alena, as long as you enter the Holy Domain, you can quickly catch up with and surpass your mother.
Your talent is good, but your mother Juna Selvicer is in the top five in the records of the bloodline entering the Holy Domain.
Her talent is not weaker than yours, and even surpasses you in some aspects.
Sasha doesn’t completely underestimate Judy’s chances of winning. She is confident and surely has some tricks up her sleeve.
But whether this is enough to challenge the absolute advantage of the Holy Domain Mage remains to be seen.
This battle is a fight between a mother and daughter, and the daughter is trying to take her mother’s position of power.
In the natural world, there are many similar situations, but most of them involve sons fighting their fathers.
Most members of the tribe are also happy with this outcome. Actually, the dark race is not considered to be normal creatures, although what is considered ‘normal’ changes with time. Their bloodline is very ancient, and many of their beliefs are inherited from the even older blood saint race. While many of their barbaric customs have been washed away, their instinctual animalistic nature remains in their genetic makeup.
So, there are many tribe members who enjoy watching the spectacle.
Sasha doesn’t understand why the Elder Council agreed to Judy’s proposal. Changing the household head is not a joke. While they have high hopes for Judy’s bright future, she is still a future warrior, and she can’t compare to the cunning Juna Selvicer when it comes to strategy. Their fight, regardless of who wins, will damage the Selvicer family. What’s the point of it all?
Unfortunately, she didn’t see the original proposal that was submitted. Maybe there was something in it that made the Elder Council hesitate.
Sasha sighed in frustration. She could only sit in the audience and watch the show, just like before, being kept in the dark.
How did I, a prestigious Blood Noble, end up as a mere background character?
An ancient arena.
The ground was covered with stone bricks, and there were formations carved on them, which suppressed destructive power, ensuring no harm to the surroundings.
It was Judy’s first time coming here, but it wasn’t the first time she had imagined breaking away from the woman in front of her.
Unlike Juna’s angry expression, Judy’s expression was contemptuous and self-mocking.
After finishing a period of difficult training at the Tulip Academy, she received a phone call from her family. It was her little brother who secretly dialed the phone, telling her to return to the ancestral land of the vampire clan immediately.
So she rushed to the ancestral land and saw her brother locked up by their mother. It was then she learned that after that family banquet, their mother’s madness didn’t stop, instead becoming more restless.
Perhaps Juna believed that her daughter was completely disobedient and there was no hope of her coming back under her control as a puppet. So, from a mother’s perspective, she thought it was best to dispose of this "big account" and start training a new "small account."
Unfortunately, Juna had lost the ability to conceive a long time ago. She couldn’t create a new "small account" as her son was too young to have children. So she came here herself to find a suitable partner for Judy, hoping to have a new "small account."
This wasn’t exactly a blind date, but rather Juna making a decision unilaterally. In fact, the inheritance of the family and the identity of the mother had a great influence. Many things had to be agreed upon even if they disagreed. Vampire descendants placed great importance on family blood ties, and they were bound tightly by the chains of blood and family.
This action completely tore apart the last shred of dignity between the mother and daughter. The bridge of communication completely collapsed, and there was no longer any way to maintain the pretense of peace.
Judy confidently chose to rebel against her mother in a grand way.
To defend her right to marry freely, she chose to challenge the head of her family, Juna Selvicer.
This is the whole story, which is not complicated at all, in fact, it is very simple.
Juna almost fainted when she heard the news.
The two mother-daughter pairs saw each other with disdain.
One thought, "I should be in control of my own life and not become a puppet in your hands. I want to control my own destiny and life."
The other thought, "I have worked hard to raise you and guide you. Everything I have done is to help you avoid making mistakes. Why won’t you listen to me? Nobody understands you or cares about you more than I do."
This conflict was impossible to resolve from the beginning. Despite being temporarily suppressed, it eventually built up to an unbearable point and exploded.
"A wolf in sheep’s clothing," Juna’s words felt like a sword piercing her heart.
Judy looked lonely and sad, with a mournful tone. What is the saddest thing in life?
The people who love you the most in this world never want to understand you.
What else can she say?
She has nothing left to say.
With a stern expression and fiery sword.
"Let’s fight!"
