Due to the ongoing dispute over the ownership of this ancestral land, the three families finally agreed to settle it through martial combat.
Unexpectedly, even after a grand battle began, the three sides fought for a long time without determining a victor.
Continuing the fight risked damaging the core strength of all three families, which would be utterly unacceptable.
If their foundations were weakened, other families aiming to replace them would reap the benefits.
Thus, the three families declared a truce and decided to resolve the ownership issue in a fairer way.
After discussions, they agreed that each year in mid-June, they would choose a day when the three families would select their elite forces.
A tournament-style competition would be held on the ancestral land, and the winner would claim ownership of the land.
What no one expected was that this tournament would continue to the present day, as every previous match ended in a draw.
“What exactly is hidden in the ancestral land? Why is it worth so much effort from the three families?”
Xu Fei asked again, and the family head, Kawashima Yosuke, responded.
“Legend has it that the ancestral land holds the origins of our three families, along with various inherited treasures left by our founders. Whoever obtains them will surely rise to become the most powerful family!”
Now Xu Fei understood. The ancestral land was the very place he’d always wanted to visit.
The treasures and heritage Kawashima Yosuke mentioned must be connected to the underground temple.
A brilliant idea suddenly struck Xu Fei, and he immediately took the first step, saying,
“In that case, why not let me go, Family Head? I’ve learned all of my master’s skills and have long mastered the Heavenly Path Acupuncture!”
“Once I’m there, I won’t even need to compete in the tournament. I can directly use the power of the Heavenly Path Acupuncture to claim those treasures and heritage!”
At the mention of “Heavenly Path Acupuncture,” Kawashima Yosuke was stunned. After a long pause, he repeated in disbelief,
“What? You… you say you’ve mastered the Heavenly Path Acupuncture? Xu Fei, do you even know what you’re saying?”
Seeing Kawashima Yosuke’s disbelief, Xu Fei immediately pulled out several silver needles and placed them in front of him.
“Of course I have. Tell you what, if there’s anyone injured in the family, I can demonstrate right now!”
Kawashima Yosuke and Kawashima Yumi exchanged a glance, and both nodded in agreement.
Kawashima Yumi left and soon returned with two elderly men.
The two men appeared to be in their seventies or eighties. Despite their age, their eyes gleamed with sharpness, suggesting they were formidable in their youth.
“These two are elders of our Kawashima family. They sustained injuries in their youth that couldn’t be healed and have worsened over time. Can you take a look?”
Xu Fei nodded, motioning for the two elders to sit. Activating his clairvoyant vision, he began treating them with the silver needles in hand.
With the aid of his clairvoyant vision, Xu Fei quickly identified that their injuries were merely two relatively common internal wounds.
Due to limited medical care in their time, the injuries weren’t treated promptly, which caused them to become severe over the years.
For Xu Fei, this was no challenge at all. Having harmonised the powers of yin and yang, his abilities could practically bring the dead back to life and mend bones.
Healing the old injuries of these two elders was nothing to him.
