Cheng Kai and his son couldn’t help but reveal smiles of satisfaction; now, there was no one to speak for Ye Tian, and he had no way out but death.
Cheng Xue i and Cheng Guo also beca nervous. Cheng Batian and the others were people from the upper echelons of society in Xiangxi, whom they could never normally encounter. Now that these people were right in front of them, how could they not be nervous?
The two cautiously looked at Ye Tian and were sowhat relieved to see his usual calm expression.
Ye Tian glanced at Cheng Batian and slowly opened his mouth, speaking with a faint smile, "You all should be glad that I haven’t killed anyone, only injured them. Alright, disperse now. Tonight, I just wanted to see the Luohua Cave Girl; I’m not willing to make a move yet."
Ye Tian said casually.
With these words, the crowd looked at Ye Tian as if seeing a ghost. Ye Tian actually dared to speak such audacious words in front of Cheng Batian, as if he were mad.
"You don’t want to make a move? Haha, but we want to make a move. This is the Cheng Family’s place. If you want to see the Luohua Cave Girl, you have to ask for our permission. I want to know, who invited you here? Tonight, those who are unrelated are refused entry." Cheng Batian laughed angrily. At over seventy years old, it was the first ti he had seen such an arrogant young man, truly opening his eyes.
"Clan Leader, just beat him up and throw him out. No need to waste words with him."
The Cheng family mbers couldn’t help but speak out.
In an instant, a tense atmosphere filled the air. The Cheng family had several martial arts experts present, ready to act as soon as Cheng Batian gave the order.
Cheng Batian did not imdiately give the order but instead loudly asked the surrounding crowd, "Did any of you invite this young man here?"
The crowd looked at each other, shaking their heads one after another.
"Young man, since no one here knows you, and no one invited you, you have entered without permission. You don’t know the rules, so don’t bla for teaching you a lesson," Cheng Batian said. At this mont, with many voices around, even if he wanted to teach Ye Tian a lesson, he had to do it righteously.
Cheng Batian raised his hand as a signal, and the Cheng family’s two martial arts inner strength experts stepped forward, ready to act.
Seeing that they were about to make a move, the crowd quickly dispersed for fear of being caught up in the fight. Tian Yan, seeing this, couldn’t help but feel schadenfreude, as she did not want to see Cheng Xue i associate with any martial arts experts.
"Huh, what’s going on? Why is everyone gathered here? Could it be that you started the event before our Liao Family arrived?" Suddenly, a voice ca from the doorway.
Hearing this voice, everyone in the crowd turned to look.
"It’s the Liao Family coming."
Liao Chaoshan, leading the Liao Family mbers, strode in briskly, and the crowd made way, creating a path.
"Clan Chief Liao, we wouldn’t dare start without you. It’s just a young man being disrespectful; I happened to be teaching him a lesson. Now that you’re here, you can watch the fun too," Cheng Batian laughed, not daring to offend the Liao Family.
"A youngster?" Upon hearing this, Liao Chaoshan was startled, quickly pushing aside those in front of him and scanning the area. He soon saw Ye Tian.
"Young Master Ye, I’m late. Please don’t be upset," Upon seeing Ye Tian, Liao Chaoshan imdiately bowed low, as if a eunuch eting the Emperor, displaying the utmost respect.
Liao Chaoshan, patriarch of the most powerful family among Xiangxi’s Five Major Families, known for his arrogance, never regarded others highly, but today he was so obsequious towards a young man, shocking everyone imnsely.
Cheng Batian was dumbfounded, thinking he was seeing things. Rubbing his eyes, he still saw the sa scene, which he found even more unacceptable.
"Clan Chief Cheng, what is the aning of this? Young Master Ye was invited here by tonight. Disrespecting Young Master Ye is disrespecting . I advise you to apologize to Young Master Ye," Liao Chaoshan turned and said to Cheng Batian in a stern voice.
This Cheng family must be tired of living, daring to provoke Ye Tian.
"Clan Chief Liao, even if this youngster is your friend, he injured a mber of my Cheng Family last night. I’m already showing you face by not making him apologize. As for us apologizing to him? That’s absolutely impossible," Cheng Batian said. He couldn’t ignore the Liao Family’s face.
But the Cheng Family had its own principles.
Liao Chaoshan cast a glance at Cheng Kai and his son, snorted coldly, and said, "Your Cheng Family offended Young Master Ye; it’s your good fortune he didn’t kill you. I’m advising you to apologize to Young Master Ye for the sake of our long-standing acquaintance. If you don’t listen, I won’t force you, but the consequences might be beyond what your Cheng Family can bear."
The Cheng Family is still being stubborn, but if they witness Ye Tian’s divine skills, they’ll likely be frightened out of their wits.
Seeing Liao Chaoshan so reverent towards Ye Tian, Cheng Batian was filled with suspicion. Could this young man really be soone of great significance?
However, even if he had a background, Liao Chaoshan didn’t need to speak so much for him.
"Clan Chief Liao, you’re exaggerating. Even if this young man has a background, you don’t have to flatter him like this. You have the Black Witch Clan supporting you," Cheng Batian said, feeling that Liao Chaoshan was making unnecessary threats.
"I’m just advising you, whether you listen or not is up to you," Liao Chaoshan said lightly. He didn’t ntion how the Black Witch Clan was nearly destroyed by Ye Tian. In fact, Liao Chaoshan hoped Ye Tian would deal with the Cheng Family so he could take advantage.
"I still say this: there’s no way we will apologize as the Cheng Family. Clan Chief Liao, no offense, but although our Cheng Family’s overall strength is sowhat weaker than your Liao Family’s, our Cheng Family mbers have more backbone than yours and won’t bow and scrape to a young man," Cheng Batian said coldly, proud and defiant in his tone.
Liao Chaoshan scoffed, hoping Cheng Batian would have the courage to say these things after witnessing Ye Tian’s powers.
His current submissiveness to Ye Tian ca from painful experience. Without such deference, they could risk extermination.
Cheng Batian’s words were bold, filling the crowd with a sense of excitent. anwhile, everyone silently scorned Liao Chaoshan but dared not express it due to the Liao Family’s influence.
"Young Master Ye, since Clan Chief Cheng refuses to apologize, should we take action against him?" Liao Chaoshan asked Ye Tian cautiously.
"Let’s deal with the Cheng Family later. People should be arriving soon. Bring out the Luohua Cave Girl," Ye Tian said calmly. From beginning to end, Ye Tian maintained an extrely serene deanor, as if nothing could ripple his steadfast heart.
"Alright." Liao Chaoshan nodded quickly, and ordered soone to quickly bring out the Luohua Cave Girl.
