Chapter 231 (1/2)

<hr>

Duan Yuyang harshly smacked his palm against the ground indignantly after listening, “Isn’t that old fart from the Shen family too shameless?! Such a sinister person didn’t get punished by the heavens and even ascended successfully. Isn’t he afraid that ghosts will knock on his door in the middle of the night?!”

Yuan Tianwen coaxed, “Don’t get angry because of such people. It’s not that he won’t get punished, just that the time has not yet come. This sort of insidious person will receive his retribution sooner or later.”

Yan Tianhen nodded. “If my Dage and I get the chance to leave the Five Continents’ mainlands in the future and ascend to the Nine Lands, we’ll definitely ferret this b.a.s.t.a.r.d out and kill him to avenge Senior Lu!”

After he spoke, Yan Tianhen sighed. “Can we really leave the Five Continents’ mainlands?”

Lin Xuanzhi answered, “As long as you want to, then we can.”

Duan Yuyang asked, “Does Ah Hen want to go out to have a look?”

Yan Tianhen nodded. “When Daddy was around, he used to tell me about the world outside the Five Continents’ mainlands. Countries and sects stand in great numbers there, and treasures could be found everywhere. And there’s innumerable influential figures there too.”

Lin Xuanzhi looked at him tenderly. “I’ll accompany you no matter where you want to go.”

Yan Tianhen looked back at Lin Xuanzhi with s.h.i.+ning eyes, then nodded forcefully.

Duan Yuyang looked at them enviously.

Yuan Tianwen asked, “Do you want to go outside and have a look?”

“Me …” Duan Yuyang shrugged indifferently. “I know very well what kind of level I’m at, so I won’t join in the fun.”

Yuan Tianwen placed on hand over the back of Duan Yuyang’s hand, which was covering his knee. “It’s okay. If you want to stay here, then I’ll stay by your side.”

Duan Yuyang looked horrified as he pulled his hand out. “A loser like me can’t hold back someone who’s favoured by the heavens like you. Look for someone else , I won’t be part of your life.”

“How could you say that you’re holding me back?” Yuan Tianwen looked at him anxiously, “Yangyang, I know that I was terribly wrong and let you down. However, I’ve already been punished for my mistakes these days. What am I not doing well? Just tell me, I’ll change everything. I won’t ask for you to forgive me, I’d just like to ask you to please not push me away.”

A faint sourness arose in Duan Yuyang’s heart. Yuan Tianwen had never been the type of person to understand what exactly ‘servile’ meant, but at this moment, he was almost imploring.

If this was before he knew what the Duan family had done with him, he might have been willing to continue to be with Yuan Tianwen. But now, how could he use this kind of body to drag Yuan Tianwen down?

Duan Yuyang resisted the sourness surfacing in his heart and sneered, “Young Master Yuan, frankly, there’s no problem with what you’ve been doing recently. As for sincerity …you do have it.”

Yuan Tianwen revealed a glimmer of joy, but soon, Duan Yuyang dealt him a heavy blow–

“But people’s minds can change. I used to like you, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that I still like you now. Your kindness is just a burden you’re imposing on me.”

“Burden?” Yuan Tianwen asked in disbelief.

Yuan Tianwen suffered a heavy blow. He clenched his fist and looked at Duan Yuyang. “No matter what you say, I will never part with you.”

Duan Yuyang sneered, his expression changing completely. “If you continue to pester me, I’ll let everyone know just how shameless the young master of the Yuan family is. I don’t think the Yuan family can lose this kind of face.”

Yuan Tianwen stared at Duan Yuyang for a long while; the latter’s expression remained unchanged — he didn’t seem to be joking.

Yuan Tianwen suddenly stood up and walked away with large strides.

Yan Tianhen was staring agape. He couldn’t help but click his tongue. “Yuyang Gege, aren’t you being too ruthless? His face is all dark from anger!”

“Yeah.” Lin Xuanzhi glanced at Duan Yuyang askance. “Moreover, you hit right where it hurts. Although Yuan Tianwen himself doesn’t mind being shameless, he definitely can’t make the Yuan family lose face.”

For people like Yuan Tianwen, family honour would always come before personal gains and losses.

If everyone were to know that the young master of the Yuan family was hara.s.sing a man and couldn’t even get what he was begging for, they would probably laugh so hard that their teeth fell out! The Yuan family would never let him undermine their reputation like that.

It was reasonable for Yuan Tianwen to get that angry.

Duan Yuyang uttered a , seemingly proud to the extreme. “Honourable me just likes doing that, so what? Have anything to say about that?”

Lin Xuanzhi smiled. “What can I say? It’s fine as long as you don’t come to regret it.”

“Of course I won’t regret it.”

He didn’t want to mention such a painful thing again. He changed the subject to Lin Xuanzhi, “You’ll have an acrimonious fallout with the Shen family then.”

After they were thrown out of the cave by Lu Qingli, intentionally or unintentionally, like they were rubbish, they realised that the four of them had been thrown to the same place by some coincidence.

As for the rest, they didn’t know where they had gone.

So the two sides managed to avoid fighting as soon as they got out.

Yet Lin Xuanzhi was very calm. “If we’re going to fall out, then we’ll just fall out . We’ll never walk on the same path anyway, falling out will happen sooner or later.”

Duan Yuyang stared at him with an inquiring gaze. “Lin Xuanzhi, I am curious how you seem to have learned about the secret of the Pill Limit Mysterious Land long ago.”
