Chapter 65

Update Time: 2013-04-30

Yun Mo continued, "Apart from those few, it's not your turn to deal with us, these outsiders! Whatever happens today, I, Wen Junlai, will take full responsibility. If you have the guts, go complain to the City Lord! As for the Red-Eyed Horse, I believe it deserved to die for intentionally harming the city's residents. So don't even think about compensation from me!"

"You...!" The tall guard was almost spitting blood from anger at this shameless person. The old stable master was so furious that he spat out a mouthful of blood, pointing at Yun Mo, his body trembling, unable to speak.

"Clearly, it was you who crippled the Red-Eyed Horse, yet you twist the words to make it seem like it's the fault of Zixia City. How despicable!" Everyone was inwardly shouting this, feeling extremely aggrieved!

The young lady of Zixia City's face darkened, and the handsome young man she was holding was almost spitting fire. He gave a subtle nod to the tongue-tied, bulky guard!

The guard captain was so angry he didn't know what to say, but he finally came to his senses when he saw his master's signal!

"Damn, this kid is sharp-tongued. Why should I argue with him? That's not my forte. I just got chewed out by him!"

"The young master is smart. Right, just beat him up. Physical strength is what we're good at!"

Not just this captain, but the other captains who had surrounded them also understood the young master's signal!

They also knew why the young master only gave a signal and didn't give an order. This was, after all, the Ziyeh City Lord's residence, and their masters seemed to be here to seek something from the Ziyeh City Lord. If they started a commotion, it would look bad! Regardless of right or wrong, the Ziyeh City Lord, who is known to be partial, might hold a grudge, affecting the big matters!

Secondly, today's incident was a matter of perspective. The Red-Eyed Horse was about to kick the little girl, which everyone saw clearly. But this guy also knocked down the Red-Eyed Horse in front of everyone. If he leaves unscathed, what about Zixia City's face? What about the guards' face? So, the guards had to take back their own face, while the masters remained silent and uninvolved!

Thus, to avoid angering the surrounding Ziyeh City guards, a fair duel was the only way! With countless experts on our side, once the challenge begins, this kid will have to tough it out. He will definitely be beaten to death! Hehe... These black-hearted guys secretly laughed.

Yun Mo didn't see the handsome young master's signal or the mob coming to beat him up. Instead, he was surprised to see these people calm down, which made him uneasy!

The reason he spoke so harshly was to provoke these warriors! "If you all gang up on me, I can't fight back, but won't the Ziyeh City guards outside intervene? As soon as a fight breaks out, I can escape in the chaos! But now these guys are calm, this isn't good. Could it be...?" Yun Mo's heart sank.

Sure enough, the tall guard captain, Wen Peng, ignored the Ziyeh City guards' shouts and said in a deep voice, "Let's put the Red-Eyed Horse aside for now. I have always heard that Ziyeh City's warriors are powerful and have always wanted to see for myself. Today, you, sir, appear so heroic, it's a great opportunity for me to broaden my horizons. Now, as the captain of Zixia City's guards, I challenge Captain Wen Junlai of Ziyeh City. Please don't refuse, or it will tarnish Ziyeh City's reputation!"

He spoke with his inner strength, drowning out the surrounding noise.

Uh...? Everyone fell silent, all eyes on Wen Junlai.

Oh no! Yun Mo felt dizzy, but his strong willpower kept him from losing face. His fists were clenched, and his face showed extreme anger. He seemed about to accept the challenge to uphold Ziyeh City's reputation!

The handsome young master nodded slightly at the enlightened guard captain, and his sister's furrowed brows relaxed. Her eyes sparkled, but it was unclear what she was thinking.

The other nobles had various expressions, but all showed interest. Since it wasn't their business, who wouldn't enjoy the spectacle? These young masters and misses had nothing better to do all day, so they would treat this as a monkey show.

The female manager of Chenyu Pavilion, a shrewd person, knew that Chenyu Pavilion was part of Zilong City's business. The pavilion had branches all over the continent, and wherever it was located, it had to pay respects. The business in the coastal five cities was naturally under the protection of Zilong City. Of course, the annual dividends were enough to satisfy the Zilong City Lord, so how could this woman not try her best?

"Everyone, quickly, bring seats and tea!" Following the manager's call, countless maids appeared, placing tables and chairs made of peach wood on the red carpet in front of Chenyu Pavilion, and the exquisite tea sets emitted the aroma of premium Yun tea!

The two nobles from Zilong City were very satisfied with their subordinates' performance and, as hosts, invited everyone to sit down. The nobles sat down gracefully to drink tea, with experts standing behind them. Everything happened quickly and orderly, creating a grand scene for the show!

Yun Mo's face turned red with anger!

"Damn, I'm not a monkey! You bastards are so excited to serve tea and watch a show?" He cursed inwardly but put on a righteous face and said, "Zixia City clown, I do want to teach you a lesson, but..."

As he spoke, he used his inner strength, and a layer of white light appeared.

What? Everyone was shocked! "How can this captain only be at the Fourth Level of Tianyou? Isn't it said that a guard captain must be at least the Sixth Level of Tianyou? How can he be so weak?" Everyone was puzzled.

Liu Mengmeng had been standing in the crowd. When Yun Mo suddenly pushed her out, the little girl almost fell. She was about to scold this irresponsible brother when she saw Yun Mo leap to save the little girl from the Red-Eyed Horse. Instantly, she was moved to tears. "So, this slick-talking, irresponsible brother has a side of righteousness! This is why he pushed me, to protect me! Meeting such a hero is truly a blessing for Mengmeng!"

Would she still be happy if she knew Yun Mo pushed her because she was in the way?

Liu Mengmeng, seeing Yun Mo's strength was only at the Fourth Level, couldn't help but scream in worry!

But Yun Mo's next words dispelled everyone's doubts. "A few days ago, to capture an Eighth Level Tianyou criminal, I was seriously injured, which caused me to drop from the Seventh Level to the Fourth Level of Tianyou!"

Oh? Everyone was disappointed, thinking: "No show today!" The young masters, who were sitting in their chairs, ready to enjoy the show, almost spat out their tea. "Damn, after all this preparation, no show?"

The other young masters, who hoped for a conflict, cursed inwardly, regretting the loss of the show!

However, none of them showed their displeasure on their faces. They were all shrewd people!

"But..." Yun Mo changed his tone. "Even with only Fourth Level strength, I can still take you all down, you arrogant dogs! Damn, challenging Ziyeh City's guards, today I'll show you what true strength is!"

Damn! Everyone cursed together, "This guy is so full of himself, it's ridiculous!" But they were still skeptical. "Fourth Level to take down a guard captain and a group of people? Is he crazy?"

"Hmph, arrogant!" One of the twin young masters sneered.

"Not necessarily. He seems very confident. Maybe he can really take on a hundred? Hehe!" The other immediately countered.

"Then, let's bet!"

"On what?"

"50 million gold coins?"

"Deal!"

Neither of them would back down, with everyone watching, no one could lose face!

"Would you like to be the judge, sister?"

One of them asked the cold, sickly girl with a lick of his lips!

The girl, rarely, nodded. This guy was overjoyed.

Everyone was also surprised to see the girl, who usually showed no interest in such matters and ignored ugly men and other noble young masters except her brother, break her usual behavior!

The twin young masters, who were always fans of this girl, couldn't be happier!

"Ah, men, being cheap is their nature!"

All the ladies cursed inwardly.

"Great, truly impressive! One person wants to beat us all, that's great, really great!"

The guard captain, Wen Peng, hearing Yun Mo's words, was not angry but delighted. He praised loudly, "Damn, I'll beat you to death here first. Beating you to death later won't be too much, since you boasted about teaching us all a lesson!"

Yun Mo was also cursing inwardly! But the other party's aggressive attitude stirred his murderous and violent emotions, so he decided to have a good fight!

"There's one more thing, let me explain first!" Yun Mo's words silenced the crowd about to erupt. Everyone stared at him, thinking, "What does this guy want now? Can't he finish his words at once? This is too damn annoying!"

The Ziyeh City guards, who had drawn their weapons, quietly put them away. The nature of the situation had changed; it was now a martial arts exchange between Ziyeh City and Zixia City. This wasn't a group fight! Hearing Yun Mo challenge the Zixia City experts with his injured body, everyone was worried for him. After all, Yun Mo had become the representative of the Ziyeh City guards. If he was beaten, it would be embarrassing for the Ziyeh City guards. So, they couldn't help but care about Yun Mo.
