“Don’t worry, young mistress. Master Cheng’s swordsmanship isevery bit as good as Long Yuze’s. Not to mention that he possesses much moreexperience. The outcome will be clearly soon enough.”
“I certainly hope so!” It would be lying to say that Cheng Xiao Xiaowas not worried at all, but she also knew that with the giant python there, herfather will be safe no matter what.
BANG!
Just as little Yuteng had predicted, a silhouette flashed from theair and Cheng Biyuan landed on the ground.
On the other side, unexpected by everyone, Long Yuze, whomeveryone thought of as the most powerful in the Long’s, fell from the air likea broken kite. Long Yuze had to stumble a few steps backward before he couldsteady himself, but his face was beet red.
Even though he didn’t spit out any blood but everyone could tellthat Long Yuze has been injuried.
“Master Cheng was certainly as good as reputed. I concede!” Ittook Long Yuze a while to calm the his roiling blood before he could cupped hishands at Cheng Biyuan and spoke.
Cheng Biyuan’s look gained a bit of heat and he nodded back athim. Then, turning toward Xue Xingchen, his meaning was clear. Long Yuze tookthis opportunity to take a medicinal pill and stood to one side.
Everybody knew that Cheng Biyuan wouldn’t let Xue Xingchen offeasily. How would they match up to each other?
Xue Xingchen understood innately that he didn’t stand a chanceagainst Cheng Biyuan. He saw Cheng Biyuan’s skills clearly when he was fightingLong Yuze. He wouldn’t say that he was worse than Long Yuze, but he wouldn’t sayhe could for sure beat Cheng Biyuan either.
He believed that it wouldn’t take long before the news that theCheng’s had beaten School of Divine Condor, the Long’s, the Xue’s, and the Xu’swould spread all over Dafeng.\nUnder everyone’s look, Xue Xingchen came in front of Cheng Biyanand with cupped hands said, “Master Cheng, I don’t think I have a chance to winso I concede. We, too, will compensate you for your loss!”
“Oh!” Cheng Biyuan stared at him coldly.
Just then, Su Yiyang walked toward the two of them, with a bittersmile on his face, he said to Cheng Biyuan, “Master Cheng, I share the sameopinion as Mr. Xue. I am willing to concede and compensate for your loss!”
“Naturally you will compensate us.” said Cheng Xiao Xiaononchalantly. With her cold eyes, her gaze swept over everyone, “Since you arewilling to compensate us, we are willing to accept as well. As such, leavebehind everything you’ve brought, we will take that as our compensation.”
“That’s impossible!”
“Everything?”
“That, that is ridiculous!”
Several people cried out. They don’t just look upset, they weredownright angry. This was more of an insult than being slapped in the face. Howcome someone who had always been looking down on everyone be subjectedsomething that was almost the equivalent of being skinned?
Cheng Xiao Xiao wasn’t surprised by their reaction at all. With aquick lift of her eyebrows, she said, “Oh, you don’t agree? Then bring yourbest. Live or die, you can speak after you’ve won.”
Her intention was clear. They want to bargain? They have to beatthe Cheng’s first. Otherwise, they better do as they were told.
Su Yiyang looked angry and he couldn’t help but looked at XueXingchen next to him. Naturally Xue Xingchen looked equally angry. It wasobvious it he was having a hard time accepting this as well.
The Cheng’s couldn’t care less how they felt. They let Cheng XiaoXiao call the shots. They were happy to see her slapping everyone.
