“Yang Zixi, it is your good fortune that my Brother Shi Yu has taken a fancy to you, you should count your blessings!”

Zhang Yongshan stared at Yang Zixi with a stormy expression and said in a cold voice, “I have already confirmed... this youth with you here is not from a grand family or higher! What is so good about him that you would rather choose him over Brother Shi Yu?”

As he finished, Zhang Yongshan’s voice became even colder.

“Shi Yu?”

Yang Zixi shook her head and looked back at the youth with a starry-eyed look. “How could he be compared to my Big Brother Zhou?”

The young lady’s actions were a public declaration of the feelings she felt towards Zhou Donghuang, and she abandoned all restraint that a lady could have.

The scene broke out in an uproar.

“Sister Zixi.”

Although Ren Jiapei had long expected that Zixi would confess her feelings for Big Brother Zhou someday, she never imagined that it would come so soon.

She immediately felt an emptiness in her heart, and a desolate expression came over her face without her realizing it.

“Yang Zixi... you have really fallen for this youth?”

“This youth is surnamed Zhou, in the country of Yunyang, there is no grand family and above that has the surname Zhou. In other words, he can be at most only the son of a preeminent family. Yang Zixi would rather be together with the son of a preeminent family than with First Young Master Shi Yu of a tycoon family? If Shi Yu was here, he would surely want to kill this youth.”

...

Although the scions of the grand families who were present had all felt that Yang Zixi treated that youth in white differently and guessed that she had taken a liking to him, it had only been a guess.

Now, it had been confirmed by what Yang Zixi herself had said: She really had taken a liking to this youth.

In that moment, the daughters of the grand families looked at Zhou Donghuang with looks of pity, and the young masters of the grand families looked at him without a trace of envy, but with only pity and delight at his impending doom.

“That little fellow is done for!”

Some distance away, a son of a grand family sneered and turned to leave. He rode away from the Wei family mansion on his ferghana horse, heading for the Shi family mansion. When my cousin Shi Yu arrives, I’ll watch how this kid will die!

Meanwhile, in the back courtyard of the Wei family mansion, Zhang Yongshan was momentarily stunned at the young woman’s words, but he did not take long to recover.

“Slut! I’ll help Brother Shi Yu teach you a lesson now!”

Zhang Yongshan glared at the young lady, and with an angry shout, he lunged towards her with his hand raised, sweeping it savagely towards the young lady’s face.

Although the young lady’s level of practice was almost at level-two of the Qi-gathering, her reaction was still a fraction too slow against Zhang Yongshan, a level-three adept.

By the time she had reacted, Zhang Yongshan’s hand was only several inches from her face, and she could feel the wind rushing towards her.

That was the wind that Zhang Yongshan’s hand created.

Even so, the young lady’s expression did not change, and she remained as calm and peaceful as before because the youth she admired was with her.

The youth gave her an absolute sense of security.

Piak!

The slap that the onlookers were expecting did not materialize, and what they heard instead was a soft sound.

In full view of the crowd, in the split-second before Zhang Yongshan’s hand landed on the young lady’s beautiful face, he found his wrist gripped by a hand that had shot out like lightning.

The hand that had shot out like lightning was like an iron pincer, gripping Zhang Yongshan’s wrist like a vice and preventing it from moving forward any further.

“That’s fast!”

There was a look of shock in the eyes of First Young Master Wei Hongtao and the other scions of the elite grand families. The speed with which the youth had acted was so fast that they had not even noticed that he had moved.

Of course, in their opinion, this was because they had not been focused on the youth from the beginning. Otherwise, the youth could not have acted faster than they noticed.

Even so, they still felt that the youth had a considerable ability and was at least not any weaker than Zhang Yongshan.

The youth would not have been able to do this if his ability was weaker than Zhang Yongshan.

“Such speed!”

“This youth is actually not weaker than Zhang Yongshan?”

“How is this possible! He... he looks like he has not even reached maturity, only seventeen years at most!”

...

The scions of the grand families were stunned by the scene before them, and only Ren Jiapei was not surprised by this because knew how fearsome her Big Brother Donghuang was.

Just as the crowd exclaimed in shock.

Ka-chak!!

Without warning, the crowd heard the clear sound of bones breaking, causing their scalp to tingle.

“Ahhhh—!”

A shrill cry of pain followed the sound of bones breaking.

In full view of the crowd, that youth in snow-white robes casually folded Zhang Yongshan’s hand in half with a calm expression, immediately breaking his bones!

“How ruthless!”

The eyes of the crowd widened at this scene, and they trembled in their heart, frightened by the youth’s ruthlessness.

The youth in question casually pushed Zhang Yongshan over, smiling as he asked about the young lady flippantly, causing a chill to creep into the hearts of the crowd.

The previous moment, he had broken someone’s arm, the next, it was as though nothing had happened as he talked and laughed cheerfully.

Who on earth was this youth?

“With Big Brother Zhou around, Zixi is not afraid.”

The young lady smiled sweetly as she looked at the youth with a gentle gaze, as though it would melt everything.

“Sir, wasn’t that too extreme?”

A low voice spoke just as Zhou Donghuang’s actions had given the crowd a fright.

A young man dressed in white scholar’s robes and holding a folding fan stepped forward.

“It’s First Young Master Wei Hongtao of the Wei family!”

“Wei Hongtao is the host of the day... this youth in white creating a scene at this gathering organized by him is like a slap to the face of the Wei family.”

“However, the ability of this youth in white is reasonably strong, and he is a whole level higher than Zhang Yongshan... and Zhang Yongshan has attained level-three of the Qi-gathering not long ago.”

“He is at least an outstanding level-three adept... otherwise, he wouldn’t have the ability to hurt Zhang Yongshan like that.”

“So what if he is? The first young master of the Wei family is an outstanding level-four adept, wouldn’t it be simple to deal with him?”

...

As Wei Hongtao stepped forward, the scions of the grand families turned their gazes on him one by one.

Wei Hongtao, the first young master of the elite grand Wei family, the preeminent person of the younger generation of the grand families of the Chu royal city.

In the circles of the grand families, Wei Hongtao would be the focal point wherever he went.

When Wei Hongtao stepped out, the daughters of the grand families, including Third Young Mistress Zheng Qiuhe of the Zheng family, all looked at him with starry-eyed gazes. He was the man of their dreams.

Very quickly, Wei Hongtao was beside Zhang Yongshan, glancing with a slight frown at Zhang Yongshan who was rolling on the ground in pain. Then he looked at the youth in the white robe with a piercing gaze.

“Sir, didn’t you hear me? Aren’t your actions too extreme?”

Wei Hongtao repeated himself in a slightly firmer and much deeper tone, creating a sense of pressure out of nowhere.

However, the youth did not pay him any attention, as though completely ignoring him.

“Crazy! This youth is crazy!”

“He actually dares to ignore First Young Master Wei like that? He wouldn’t treat First Young Master Wei like he treated Zhang Yongshan, would he?”

“Zhang Yongshan is only the young master of an inferior-level grand family, but this Young Master Wei is the first young master of an elite grand family. They are as different as heaven and earth!”

“Who is this youth, and how arrogant is he? He even ignores First Young Master Wei when he is speaking?”

...

The crowd of the scions of the grand families looked at the youth in wonder. They could not understand where this youth was getting such courage from.

Just as Wei Hongtao’s expression turned a shade darker, Ren Jiapei stepped forward. “Big Brother Wei!”

“Sister Jiapei, I know you brought him along... but, today, he has gone too far. He must explain himself to me and to the Wei family!”

Wei Hongtao said in a low voice, “Today, even your pleas on his behalf are useless!”

Ren Jiapei smiled bitterly.

Wei Hongtao thought that she had stepped up to plead for Big Brother Zhou?

She stepped up only because the Wei family and the Wei family were cooperating closely, and she did not want the Wei family to provoke her Big Brother Zhou if she could help it.

Even the patriarch of the tycoon Shi family had been killed by her Big Brother Zhou, and the Shi family dared not harbor any thoughts of revenge. What was a mere grand family to him?

“Zixi, I feel there is no point in staying... why don’t we go out for a walk?”

The youth’s snow-white robe fluttered in the wind as he asked the young lady with a smile.

“Oh.”

The young lady nodded and responded obediently.

“Thinking of leaving?”

A cold gleam flashed across Wei Hongtao’s eyes, and he began to move to detain the youth.

At that moment, a voice said suddenly, “Little fellow! My Big Brother has already left to bring Cousin Shi Yu over... if you wait here obediently for my cousin Shi Yu to arrive, you might be fortunate enough to leave with your life. Knowing my cousin Shi Yu’s temper, if you dare leave, you’ll be dead!”

After he finished, a figure walked slowly forward. It was a young man in a greyish white mandarin robe.

“It’s the second young master of the grand Tan family, Tan Li.”

“Although the Tan family is only an intermediate-level grand family, they are related to the Shi family, and their position in the Chu royal city is not lower than the elite grand families.”

The circles of the grand families of the Chu royal city were only that big, and everyone present recognized the second young master of the Tan family.

“Big Brother Wei, why don’t you hand him over to my cousin Shi Yu to resolve personally when he arrives.”

Tan Li looked at Wei Hongtao.

“Sure.”

Wei Hongtao nodded. Since Shi Yu was on his way, he could happily be at leisure.
