“At last, I can breathe for a while.” Ye Qingcheng expressed his relief at the leaving sight of Wei Liang. This made Ye Yingyuan confused and wonder if something happened before his arrival.

“Brother, why are you like this?” Ye Yingyuan asked. Even Manstein listened attentively to hear ‘something good’ from his mouth.

“If only you were here a few minutes ago..” Ye Qingcheng only gave them this at first. But then he just continued with his narration.

“...when Mister Wei meet me for the first time, do you know what he takes me as? He said that I was a guard in the residence!” Ye Qingcheng then covered his face with both hands.

‘Oh, his pride and confidence now are shaken to the core. But he will overcome it from his personality.’ Manstein believed that as long as someone like Ye Qingcheng returned to being himself, he could regain the pride and confidence he had.

“Then after Father, Patriarch, Uncle and even Mother arrived, Mister Wein started to suggest something to them! He said that I need to spar with him or five rounds! Five rounds!” could not endure the feelings anymore, Ye Qingcheng shouted towards the sky above.

Now, even Ye Yingyuan understood what it means to suffer. Ye Qingcheng who was only an Early Stage Foundation Establishment had to spar against someone who had a cultivation base two realms apart and maybe more!

“It’s okay. At least you understand someone of that level cannot be provoked and Brother can gain a rare sight at how someone at those realms fights.” To cheer Ye Qingcheng, Ye Yingyuan said the event in another perspective.

Hearing that his little brother tried to comfort him, Ye Qingcheng felt warm inside his heart. Even with his big body that could compare to the bodybuilder, but his heart was still rather sensitive.

“Thank you!” then the brothers hugged each other. After that, they returned to the visitor room. But the only one that present there was Li Ling. She sat alone there with her face showed her thought perfectly.

She was someone with the pride of her own. But seeing her like this made Ye Yingyuan felt wrong somewhere.

Then he could not contain his curiosity and asked in his normal talk. “Why are you so gloomy? Did something big happen there?”

But of course, both he and Manstein probably had known the condition there at best. Nie Yang might have given someone there a face slapping real hard on his face. And that person was exactly Li Kuang who was being slapped!

In the mayor’s mansion, a man with his straw hat slapped the man a hundred times in the face. But that was not the worst because it was directly watched by Li Dian!

“Sir, can you please appease your anger first? I believe we can still discuss it right?” even Li Dian could not help but to reduce the commotion that this person caused.

“What? Oh, right. You should see for yourself that this so called your ‘son’ is not worthy of your care and love!” Nie Yang casually slapped Li Kuang’s face over, over, over and over again until that person’s face turned to like a pig.

“This is more like his true face! And can you explain about this?” Nie Yang then opened his bag and what he pulled out made everyone that watched gaped in shock!

Because the thing that got out from the bag were persons. These persons were the one that attacked Nie Yang and also the part of the sect that he currently fights against.

“What?” some of the people in the mansion surprised to see them. It was because they were the disciples of the sect that located outside Xuan City.

“Aren’t they the disciple from Seven Color Sect? Why are they here?” even Li Dian surprised to see them.

“Yes, exactly! Do you know that this son of yours is related to them?” Nie Yang watched everyone around here and more focused on the mayor, Li Dian. But he found out that the mayor did not know about this.

He could only unleash the fury in his heart to this Li Kuang. And the people from Seven Color Sect, they could do nothing than whined and wriggled on the floor, which was a pathetic sight for them.

Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.

“What did you say? Is he...is he really related to them all?” now the one who confused was Li Dian himself. His adopted son turned out to be such a person.

The kind of person that cooperate with others just to get rid of their trouble and someone who only cared about himself!

“I clearly told you about him right, that this ‘person’ should not be called a person! I demand a proper explanation here.” Nie Yang shouted.

Good for them not to know the identity of Nie Yang or else they would be shocked to death!

“Father...he...is...” Li Kuang tried to speak when suddenly two people appeared and moved towards the direction where Li Dian currently was. When Nie Yang saw one of the people who had come, his pupils suddenly shrank.

“Oh, it is you.” Nie Yang could only sigh while still grabbing Li Kuang. Wei Liang who had seen Nie Yang appearance then announced something that shook the entire place!

“I can’t believe that the famous thief in the Midland is here!” Wei Liang shouted. “Come here and let us talk a bit.” He continued but Nie Yang did not want to stay there any longer.

“Damn you! I started to get fun and all but you only know how to ruin it. Such a waste.” Nie Yang faced Wei Liang and he opened his palm that started to shine. Seeing this made all of the people in the mansion ran away in fear!

As for Ye Canghai, he prepared some artifacts for defense. Wei Liang only clenched his fist and then threw it at Nie Yang!

Nie Yang’s figure started to disappear and replaced by something else! It was the bright and large palm that directed at Wei Liang. This palm had the power to wash away its obstacle!

“You’re really interesting!” Wei Liang also released his abilities with his fists. A shadow of a snake started to appear and coiled in his arms before being unleashed to the bright palm!

DAM!

Both strikes hit each other and the collision from both men created an earthquake in Xuan City. This made the citizen fell into the panic! Even Ye Yingyuan could feel the vibration and power from far.

Smokes and debris flew around the air, enclosed the battle that happened before. Ye Canghai held a round shield that covered his body before the collision so he was fine.

‘Where are they?’ he thought for a second before he felt energies fluctuation from above. He raised his heads and saw that Wei Liang and Nie Yang exchanged another three strikes before separate again from each other.

“Heh, never expect to get something good to battle today.” Wei Liang said with his fist clenched more tightly. Meanwhile, Nie Yang also saw his palm before opened his mouth, “I really underestimate you that time huh?”

Their cultivation base was enough to terrify the entire place and now they battled in that very sky above the Xuan City.

“Now, shall I continue the battle?” Wei Liang smiled towards Nie Yang. But Nie Yang then touched his straw hat which glowed with a strange pattern in it. Wei Liang who had seen such things was surprised.

“You had a problem with your manner! Look at those people below, do you want to take responsibilities for killing them accidentally?” Nie Yang then moved with high speed to somewhere far from the city.

“Wait! Our business is not done yet.” Wei Liang followed after him. They chased each other, shot some magical abilities and using some maneuvers to fight before they stopped at the mountain range.

Not only that but their movement itself was incredibly fast that a hundred miles passed just in a few minutes.

“Now are you ready?” Nie Yang glared at Wei Liang who persistently chased after him. “I’m ready anytime!” Wei Liang replied with his words and his fists.

“Generalized Palm!” Nie Yang moved his palm in a manner that like a flowing river. His palm redirected every fists strike that tried to land on his body. But Wei Liang also had a solution for that!

“Coiling Phyton Fist!” his arms started to spun and changed direction at an almost impossible angle. Wei Liang then stretched his arms further and coiled it around Nie Yang’s arms.

Their cultivation base soared and released an energy storm around them!

When the fists were just a finger left before hitting Nie Yang, his straw hat glowed so brightly. “You really using it!” exclaimed Wei Liang in anger.

“So what? This area is free from anyone and here, I can do something like this!” Nie Yang threw away his hat and revealed his face. A large scar could be seen on his forehead, from his left side to his right side of his head was filled with the little injury that added to his ferocious look.

“Yellow Straw Lock Formation!” Nie Yang gestured with his index finger and pointed towards Wei Liang. The straw from the hat separated and formed a cage which enveloped Wei Liang from all side.

“Splitting Rock Punch!” a set of punch that Wei Liang launched gave Nie Yang a feeling of danger. Luckily he used this formation on his head to trapped Wei Liang.

A boom sounds echoed throughout the area and traveled far across thousand miles away!

Ye Canghai searched for Wei Liang’s presence but he still did not find it. But when he heard the boom sound, he directly went there at maximum speed.

But at the same time in Ye Residence, there were some people that just ignored it without a care. Ye Yingyuan sipped the tea that placed on the table. The fragrance from it spread to every corner of the room.

“What a brother you have there, huh?” Ye Yingyuan sneered and mocked Li Ling. He even questioned mayor’s decision to adopt a son while he already had a daughter.

“Even if he is like that but I believe that he will not degrade to the lowest kind of person!” Li Ling retorted with her eyes stared directly at Ye Yingyuan. But Manstein doubted that after seeing the person himself.

“Really, why don’t you two speak together while I go somewhere else to train?” this moment, Ye Qingheng just walked out from the room and said that while left.

“Wait, brother! I’m not really mean to spend the time longer with her.” This was not expected and Ye Yingyuan tried to get his brother to accompany him.

Even someone like Ye Yingyuan did not want to deal with someone he dislikes and now the only reason for him being there now gone how can he stay?

“No, you stay here and please just accompany her instead!” now the reaction of his older brother was like someone who had brought a sentence of punishment towards the criminal.

‘What is that Ye Qingcheng doing? From the looks of it, he seems like someone who is scared of something?’ Manstein wondered about it and then continued with his observation of the body of the cultivator.

Currently, he could check every place in Ye Yingyuan’s body without much hindrance. He could see the flow of the energy in Ye Yingyuan’s body and the sight of it made Manstein stared for a long time.

‘Wonderful...’ it was like the sight of beautiful light moved together in a band, so captivating and that sight ingrained deeply into the deepest part of Manstein’s soul.

‘The movement of this energy not only give the cultivator the power that normal beings can not achieve but also strengthening their body with the nourishment of such energy!’ this was the hypothesis that he could come up right now.

In fact, when Ye Yingyuan was doing something like walking or have a time without much things to do, Manstein would often check this phenomenon and in the end came up with a thought.

Then that thought developed further and became the hypothesis that he had right now.

‘What should I do, Elder Brother?’ Ye Yingyuan suddenly asked for a suggestion and Manstein was dumbfounded as his reaction.
