âDonât worry, young mistress. Master Chengâs swordsmanship isevery bit as good as Long Yuzeâs. Not to mention that he possesses much moreexperience. The outcome will be clearly soon enough.â
âI certainly hope so!â 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 Longâs, 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 didnât spit out any blood but everyone could tellthat Long Yuze has been injuried.
âMaster Cheng was certainly as good as reputed. I concede!â Ittook Long Yuze a while to calm the his roiling blood before he could cupped hishands at Cheng Biyuan and spoke.
Cheng Biyuanâs 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 wouldnât let Xue Xingchen offeasily. How would they match up to each other?
Xue Xingchen understood innately that he didnât stand a chanceagainst Cheng Biyuan. He saw Cheng Biyuanâs skills clearly when he was fightingLong Yuze. He wouldnât say that he was worse than Long Yuze, but he wouldnât sayhe could for sure beat Cheng Biyuan either.
He believed that it wouldnât take long before the news that theChengâs had beaten School of Divine Condor, the Longâs, the Xueâs, and the Xuâswould spread all over Dafeng.\nUnder everyoneâs look, Xue Xingchen came in front of Cheng Biyanand with cupped hands said, âMaster Cheng, I donât think I have a chance to winso I concede. We, too, will compensate you for your loss!â
âOh!â 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, âMaster Cheng, I share the sameopinion as Mr. Xue. I am willing to concede and compensate for your loss!â
âNaturally you will compensate us.â said Cheng Xiao Xiaononchalantly. With her cold eyes, her gaze swept over everyone, âSince you arewilling to compensate us, we are willing to accept as well. As such, leavebehind everything youâve brought, we will take that as our compensation.â
âThatâs impossible!â
âEverything?â
âThat, that is ridiculous!â
Several people cried out. They donât 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 wasnât surprised by their reaction at all. With aquick lift of her eyebrows, she said, âOh, you donât agree? Then bring yourbest. Live or die, you can speak after youâve won.â
Her intention was clear. They want to bargain? They have to beatthe Chengâs first. Otherwise, they better do as they were told.
Su Yiyang looked angry and he couldnât 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 Chengâs couldnât care less how they felt. They let Cheng XiaoXiao call the shots. They were happy to see her slapping everyone.
