Chapter 38 – Seven Star Warrior
“Who is that teenager?”
The Ye family was in touch with the current affairs of Green Moon City, and had knowledge of the other families’ strengths and weaknesses. They also kept track of the up-and-coming youngsters of this generation. However nobody in the Ye camp recognized this teenager’s stern looking face.
Ye Zheng Qing researched the Du family, and he knew every single one of them well. His heart sank as he saw this teenager’s face. The patriarch’s eagle-like eyes darted to Du Yuan Ming: “Is this kid one of yours?”
Hearing Ye Zheng Qing’s question, the people around the arena immediately cast their eyes onto the Du Patriarch. They were not stupid and they knew that it was entirely possible that Du family was now seeking help from outside the family in desperation!
“Of course he’s one of us!” Du Yuan Ming said loudly and proudly.
“Bullshit! We know about the new generation of Du family! Who are you trying to fool?” Ye Hai couldn’t hold himself back and therefore screamed in anger. He knew there were only three youngsters left on the family’s roster; only three five star Warriors were left, and with Du Han Yue defeated, Ye Zhong’s chances were not low. But now Du Han Yue summoned this teenager with an unknown background, everyone could smell something fishy!
Du Yuan Ming stared at Ye Hai coldly and grunted, ” You have no grounds to question me. I am the Du Patriarch if I say he’s with us, then he is with us. Why would I lie? We are a great branch of a well established family in the capital! There are tens of thousands of Du’s within the dynasty’s borders!”
It was obvious that Du Yuan Ming was giving lame excuses and lying. The audience was speculating and discussing how low, and shameful the Du family was, but no one dared stand up for the Ye family. The truth had always been whatever the powerful insist it to be!
Everyone in the Ye camp was enraged by Du Yuan Ming’s blatant lie. ‘If they are not going to abide by the agreement, we are not going sit back and get bullied!’
“Gramps, even if I die, I will not accept this humiliation! I, Ye Qiu, volunteer to fight these despicable liars!” Her eyes were teary as she asked the patriarch.
“Dad, let me fight! I will defend our dignity by any means necessary!” Ye Hai said furiously.
The Du family stepped on the Ye’s again and again, and the Ye’s just stayed quiet and dealt with the hardship as they came. But cheating was not quite the same thing, especially when there was a written agreement.
“Stand still! Nobody said you can step foot into the arena!”
Just when that stern looking teenager was about to enter Ye Yi, the ten star Warrior, shouted with uncontrollable rage. He fiercely took a step and turned into a flash. His body now blocked the teenager.
“This is a duel between the Ye and Du families’ younger generation!” Ye Yi stared coldly down at the teenager’s eyes then he shouted again. “Are you one of the Du’s?”
The teenager indifferently looked at Ye Yi. In his mind, if he lies and declares that he is a Du, it would be the same as betraying his ancestry which he was too proud to do, and telling the truth would not help the situation therefore he decided not to speak a word.
The teenage’s silence just confirmed everyone’s suspicion!
“Du Yuan Ming, this kid is not one of you! Why would you let an outsider fight for you in a family duel? Has your family run out of talent?” Ye Yi pointed at the patriarch and furiously shouted.
“General Zhou, President Dong, that teen is obviously an outsider don’t tell me you think otherwise? The Du family is cheating, can’t you see?” Ye Hai gazed at the two men who were suppose to be judges for this duel, and questioned them in a furious tone.
“Well, what do you want now? This is a duel between the young ones! You are one generation too old to step in. Are you going to ignore the rules? I am the representative of the City Lord, and we do not tolerate cheaters!” General Zhou raised his voice, and not only did he evaded Ye Hai’s question, he even accused the Ye family of attempting to break the rules.
“Step back! All of you! How dare you entering the arena? Do you know no shame? Do not forget you signed the contract! You are breaking the terms!” Dong He squinted his eyes and said, the pressure of Lu Feng was more realistic to him than the potential of angering a hermit therefore he chose to stand by the Du family.
“Us? We are breaking the rules? Hahaha!” Ye Zheng Qing was extremely angry, and laughed hysterically. “Our family has been through its ups and downs throughout the centuries. Even when we were going through bad times, we kept our dignity and always made the honorable decisions! We don’t make trouble, but we are not afraid to confront others when they cause trouble!”
Ye Zheng Qing was furious to the point where he was willing to sacrifice anything, even his own life, to get revenge. These three were abusing their influence, resources, and power for evil and personal gain; they are poison to society. It was obvious that they could care less about any kind of rules. This was just about ending the Ye family!
First the Du family shamelessly used the hands of outsiders in a family dispute, then Zhou Wu and Dong He ignored fairness and sportsmanship, and lastly this unreasonable accusation!
This was ridiculous!
