Chapter 379 The Lowe Family Wants to Reconcile
Tomorrow was the official start of the Clan Grand Competition.
Today, Hudpids Sect notified all the ancient martial arts families, sects, and individual practitioners about the arrangements for this competition.
The Ancient Martial Arts Alliance was initially formed by six hidden powers together, but later became five after the Graham family's downfall. Each Clan Grand Competition was hosted in turn by these five hidden powers, so each time had different rules.
Overall, this year's Clan Grand Competition consisted of two main events: The Ancient Martial Arts Alliance qualification test and the individual ranking trial.
The Ancient Martial Arts Alliance qualification test was divided into five small projects that tested participants' attack, defense, speed, reaction time and endurance. Participants who passed these tests can secure their family or sect's place in the Ancient Martial Arts Alliance and receive corresponding cultivation resources. Individual practitioners can also receive rewards for their performance in these tests and may even be recruited by a family or sect.
As for the individual ranking trial at a later stage of competition, it was not just about passing a test but pure competition. However Hudpids Sect had yet to reveal specific rules which seemed to be shrouded in mystery.
Meanwhile on another side – Edoland!
Inside the Lowe Residence, Victoria sat there with a stern expression. Romeo, Harlow, Owen, George, Jennifer, and several of the strongest family experts, including Charlie, were present.
"That's the situation! Right now, our family has offended the NC Organization, and they might seek revenge," Victoria said in a serious tone.
"You're all members of the family, and this matter concerns each and every one of you. Do you have any thoughts?" Victoria coldly asked.
At this moment, everyone's gaze turned towards Romeo and his daughter, filled with blame and anger.
"Mom, do you forget how Romeo almost killed you last time? Why are you getting involved with him again?" Owen furrowed his brow, displaying a gloomy and dissatisfied expression.
With Emmanuel's family being expelled from the clan and Romeo's previous attempt to kill Victoria, it was most likely that Victoria would hand over the family's power to Owen in the future. Therefore, Owen was naturally furious at this moment, knowing that Romeo was once again implicated with Victoria and causing such a huge mess.
George and Jennifer also wore unpleasant expressions as they looked at Romeo and his daughter.
"What do you mean by getting involved with Mom again? I admit that I was misled by Eliza before. Am I not allowed to realize my mistake and turn over a new leaf?" Romeo retorted, his face darkening upon hearing Owen's words.
"Not everything can be resolved just by realizing your mistake! If you can endanger Mom's life, what else are you capable of?" Owen said coldly.
"This time, it has brought enormous trouble to the entire family! I believe Mom should completely kick you out of the family!" Owen stated firmly.
Before Romeo could respond, Victoria interrupted.
"Enough with the arguing! Romeo, don't you know what's going on?" Victoria said impatiently.
She deliberately provoked Romeo by mentioning the 200 million he had used to deceive her, which led to the NC Organization finding out about the Lowe family. Otherwise, the argument would have escalated even further.
"Uncle Owen, don't blame me and my dad! We are still family. The situation has already happened. What's the use of talking about it now? Let's think of a solution together. Although the NC Organization hasn't come for us yet, it's only a matter of time. These past two days, we've researched the NC Organization thoroughly. They are an extreme and domineering force, and they always seek revenge. The guy with the triangular eyes before he left, he even declared blood feud against the entire family. We are all implicated," Harlow spoke up.
Owen snorted coldly and ceased arguing with Romeo and his daughter. The group then began discussing countermeasures.
Finally, George had a thought and said, "Mom, didn't four people from the NC Organization die last time? What happened to their bodies?"
Victoria's expression changed slightly upon hearing this and replied, "They're in the ice cellar at the old mansion. I'm currently considering how to handle it."
"How to handle it? Of course, we should return the bodies to the NC Organization. I believe we need to show our stance and apologize to them, stating that it was a misunderstanding last time. After all, they were the ones who made the first move, and we retaliated without knowing the circumstances, inadvertently killing those four individuals. I think as long as we pay some price and negotiate with the NC Organization, we should be able to reconcile. They wouldn't really want an all-out war with our family, right? After all, the Lowe family is no pushover!" Owen suggested.
As his words fell, Victoria pondered for a long moment before nodding silently.
"Alright, let's do that. Find a way to contact the NC Organization's representative in Kreanford and return those four bodies to them, expressing our family's attitude. Just to be safe, Charlie, you negotiate with them and bring along more experts. While showing our willingness to reconcile, we also need to demonstrate the strength of our family, so they'll be willing to sit down and talk."

That morning, Thunderstorm, the deputy hall master of NC Organization in Kreanford, received news from the Lowe family.
A sinister expression crossed his face as he read through their message; his eyes filled with bloodthirsty rage.
Thunderstorm was just as powerful as Black Star Hall Master but had an even more ruthless reputation than him. He was known for being vengeful and bloodthirsty; his actions were often extreme and irrational.
It was precisely because of this that Black Star Hall Master held the position he did; if Thunderstorm were in charge, things could easily spiral out of control.
And now, the Lowe family, by some stroke of bad luck, happened to be negotiating with the NC Organization just when Black Star Hall Master was heading to participate in the Clan Grand Competition, and Thunderstorm was in charge of the Kreanford area.
"Thunderstorm, what should we do?"
"My four brothers can't die in vain!"
Triangular Eyes was also a vicious and ruthless character, gnashing his teeth on the side.
Thunderstorm nodded, exuding a strong sense of killing intent.
"This Lowe family actually wants to negotiate with us, thinking they can settle things by offering some money? Unless they hand over all the assets of the entire family to us, maybe then I'll show them some mercy and not kill them all. If it's so easy to reconcile, who will fear our NC Organization in the future? Who are we? We are the forces of darkness, doing bloody and murderous deeds!"
Thunderstorm's expression turned fierce, followed by a sinister and ferocious smile.
"They want to return the bodies to us? Fine! I'll make sure they never return!"
"Tell the Lowe family to meet us tonight at the Delorsano Mountains!"
