Chapter 8 (2/2)

“Today was nothing but a sparring match, and already such a large commotion has been created, as if I, Long Chen have done something and have harmed the innocent. Usually, all these Yang family’s brothers and sisters bullied and beaten me, not treating me even as a human, I didn’t see anyone who had stepped up for me then!”

Thinking of this, Long Chen’s eyes reflected anger, and not in the least showing signs of fear against Yang Lingyue.

“What father said was definitely right, a man without any true ability, is equivalent to a dog. Today the reason why she can scold me like this, is also because my strength is still not enough, but today if I could actually beat Yang Zhan, then the next time I will also be able to defeat you.”

He retreated several steps behind, and coldly said: “Yang Lingyue, unless you are blind, it is obvious that Yang Zhan came here early in the morning to find trouble with me, and bully me. All the people had known this, only they did not expect me to have already practiced cultivation successfully. So instead I have defeated him, but I did not kill him. So when you push all the blame onto my shoulders, what does this mean for you as the Big Sister? Is this the only way you punish me for a private grudge by rashly abusing your position as the Big Sister?!”

After being told off by Long Chen, only then did the raging Yang Lingyue calm herself down. She took in a deep breath, and thinking of the guests who were still behind her, she then managed her current emotions. She then walked in front of Long Chen and stared at him coldly.

Although Long Chen was only sixteen years old, but his height was much taller than Yang Lingyue.

“Yang Chen, I’ve never seen you in a positive light before, but I did not expect you to conceal your abilities so deeply. You reached all the way into the fourth level of the Dragon Pulse Realm before exposing your true strength. But us, Yang family’s, brothers and sisters, why should we have to do something like this, or was it that you had ulterior motives?”

“Oh well, you have already beaten Yang Zhan, as well as embarra.s.sed him, but Second Uncle and Third Aunt, they will never let you go for this, and even if I don’t punish you today, it will still be difficult for you to escape punishment.”

Long Chen laughed and said: “Then I am looking forward to this, let us see. I think you had better scram, the two lovers behind you are still waiting for you.”

Long Chen’s speech in front of everyone just now was considered to be malicious.

The young man behind her had good feelings for Yang Lingyue. Everyone knew this, but the other fellow was his brother. But as they were both behind Yang Lingyue, and Long Chen mentioned two lovers, it made people have fanciful thoughts, and this subtly hinted at Yang Lingyue’s fickle-mindedness.

No matter how good Yang Lingyue was at managing her temper, at this moment she was absolutely seething in fury. She sent one hand to grab Long Chen’s neck, and then her strength at the sixth level of the Dragon Pulse Realm had been used. As if a mountain collided against him, Long Chen actually found it difficult to breath, and although he practiced the [Celestial Core Technique], all his muscles were feeling enormous pain.

“She hasn’t even attacked me yet, but it is already this painful, Yang Lingyue’s strength has exceeded my expectations. Right now I don’t have a single chance in front of her might!”

At this point, one hand reached out and blocked in front of Yang Lingyue, forcing her to let go.

Long Chen thought that he would be beaten already, never expecting that someone would actually protect him. Looking down, this person who was standing in front of him, was Yang Lingqing? That la.s.s?

After injuring her brother, but now she was here to save him, this world is a really strange place.

Yang Lingqing had a ponytail, and was wearing an azure martial pract.i.tioner’s costume. Her pose valiant and her beauty was not one bit inferior compared to Yang Lingyue.

Seeing that it was actually Yang Lingqing, Yang Lingyue hurriedly asked: ”Sister Qing what are you doing right now, this fellow has injured your brother, I am right about to punish him.”

Yang Lingqing apologized and said: “Sister Ling, I know, but my father and First Uncle want me to bring him to them, so I can only act first. Sorry.”

Hearing that, Yang Lingyue coldly stared at Long Chen and said coldly: ”Your retribution is coming soon, I hope you can walk out of it alive, you offending me, I definitely will not let you have a good life!”

Long Chen creased his nose, saying: ”Even if you have so much time to willingly spend on me, but I definitely won’t have the time to bother about it. Let me make a suggestion, let’s end this once and for all, what do you say?”

Yang Lingyue frowned and said: “What are you trying to pull off?”

“The intra-family compet.i.tion, there is still half a month left; at that time I will also partic.i.p.ate. Our feud will then be ended at that point, half a month’s time; do you dare give this time to me?”

Long Chen with this sentence, had aroused everyone’s interest and discussion.

“What kind of silly joke is this fellow saying? Third level of the Dragon Pulse Realm, and he wants to beat Big Sister Yang Lingyue in half a month’s time? He is totally daydreaming.”

“Not good, this must be a scheme; this fellow is using a delaying tactic. In half a month’s time, I’m afraid we won’t know where he will have gone into hiding!”

Yang Lingyue looked suspiciously at Long Chen, and suddenly laughed, saying: ”Maybe it’s because of your recent progress which is very fast, so you are complacent, this cultivation thing, is an arduous journey, I Yang Lingyue after 10 years of cultivation, have managed to achieve this current standard I have, and you wish to outdo my level in only half a month’s time? Oh well, I will just let you live your life peacefully for another half a month. And at the time of the intra-family compet.i.tion I will crush your foolish dreams in front of everyone!”

After saying this, she took her leave.

However the matter regarding Long Chen and Yang Lingyue’s match had started spreading through the Yang Family household. Long Chen, with his delusions, had instantly become a laughingstock in front of everyone.

Along the way.

Yang Lingqing using suspicious glances to look at Long Chen, was finally not able to hold it in anymore and asked: “Hey, how did you managed to do it?”

“Do what?”

Yang Lingqing suspiciously looked at him and said: “Last time I know for certain that you were in the second level of the Dragon Pulse Realm, so how did you actually manage to beat my elder brother?”

About the secret of the Mysterious Dragon Jade, Long Qinglan had repeatedly warned Long Chen not to divulge anything, so Long Chen said: “I, all along, was not in the second level of the Dragon Pulse Realm, it’s just that you have not seen clearly.”

“Is that so?”

Yang Lingqing had only half-believed him. She turned over and saw the indifferent expression on the boy, only to find that he had turned into a mystery, it was very difficult to understand.

Yang Lingqing feeling that her mental capacity could not handle such thoughts, had decided not to think about it anymore, and unknowingly they reached their destination. Yang Lingqing worriedly said: “My father and First Uncle are both inside; G.o.d knows even if they punish you, I cannot help you again, so I will not enter. So you had better know what’s good for you.”

Long Chen nodded his head, and said: ”Lingqing, thank you for saving me today.”

Yang Lingqing replied: “Who said I was trying to save you, you hurt my brother, however you are really funny, Yang Lingyue sister is in the sixth level of the Dragon Pulse Realm. With your ability, you are not qualified to even carry her shoes, and still you say you want to defeat her in half a month’s time. Are you not afraid of being laughed at?

Long Chen smiled, not denying nor agreeing.
