I Accept the Challenge!

"Huh? Are you two drinking wedding wine?"

Su Yang wore a wicked expression, his eyes immediately locking onto the red cloth draped over Su Yuexi's head. He sneered, "Uncle, this isn't very kind of you. Yuexi is getting married, how could you not invite me?"

Beside him, Su Yun let out a sharp laugh. "Second brother, why would Uncle have the face to invite us to a wedding that even the pigs wouldn't attend?"

"True enough. Marrying a banished criminal—the Su Clan's reputation has been dragged through the mud."

The siblings sang in harmony, their eyes filled with nothing but contempt.

Mei Xiaofang's face turned livid. "Su Yang, Su Yun, get out! My house does not welcome you."

Though she didn't voice it, the memory of Su Yuexi nearly being beaten to death by the rod was etched into her heart, and she loathed Su Yun deeply.

Unfortunately, the siblings merely shrugged with utter indifference.

Su Yang even sat down brazenly, a playful smirk on his face. "Aunt, don't you want to know why my father pleaded for Su Yuexi? Why Grandfather agreed to let her return home?"

The two questions sowed seeds of doubt in Mei Xiaofang's mind. She couldn't fathom what Su Zhengtao and that old man were plotting.

Bang...

Suddenly, the chair beneath Su Yang shattered into splinters. He rose to his full height, staring straight at Su Zhenglong. "Because I am going to personally cripple your criminal son-in-law's limbs, so Grandfather was in a good mood and agreed!"

The family of three turned deathly pale.

Su Zhenglong forced himself to stand, his inner energy surging faintly as he roared, "You dare?"

So, the reason Su Xuefeng had agreed to let Yuexi leave the Pig Farm was to cripple Sikong Jing and settle the score for Su Zhengtao regarding the Law Enforcement Hall incident.

At that moment, Su Yun sneered, "Uncle, are you trying to bully the younger generation?"

As the words fell, Su Zhenglong's expression stiffened.

These were the exact words he had said to Su Zhengtao back at the Su Clan's Law Enforcement Hall.

Ignoring Su Zhenglong, Su Yang pointed at Sikong Jing, his tone condescending. "Criminal, I am of the same generation as you. I challenge you now—do you dare to accept?"

As he spoke, Su Yang's inner energy surged throughout his body; he was clearly at the eighth level of the Bright Realm.

Sikong Jing remained expressionless as he slowly stood up.

The next moment, Su Yuexi blocked him. "You cannot accept. Su Yang is at the eighth level of the Bright Realm; you cannot win."

Her father had said that Sikong Jing was only at the fourth level—a full twofold gap!

"Grandfather said that if you, the criminal, dare not accept the challenge, then you and this ugly freak Su Yuexi can crawl back to the Pig Farm together."

"You will live there for the rest of your lives, demoted to servants of the Su Mansion, raising pigs for the entire clan."

Su Yang had anticipated that Su Zhenglong's family wouldn't dare let Sikong Jing fight, so he pressed them directly.

Cough, cough, cough...

Su Zhenglong began to cough violently, his eyes turning bloodshot. They were trying to force Sikong Jing to his death!

His father and Su Zhengtao were truly ruthless!

But just then, Sikong Jing stepped around Su Yuexi.

Su Yuexi's face changed, and she grabbed him tightly. "You still can't fight. I'm not afraid of living at the Pig Farm."

Turning to gaze at the frantic Su Yuexi, Sikong Jing said, word by word, "I am your husband. Since I have awakened, I will not let you live in such a place again. This is my responsibility!"

Pulling his hand from her grasp, Sikong Jing spoke coldly to Su Yang, "I accept!"

Today was his wedding day, and it was also the day Sikong Jing truly recognized the malice and the tenderness of the world.

He would fight for his new bride and use his fists to swear his rebirth.

The invincible god of war was gone, but he would transform into a wild beast to tear apart all injustice and protect his loved ones.

Behind him, Su Yuexi watched Sikong Jing's tall back, tears falling uncontrollably.

Why was he being so good to her, even though she was so ugly?

Knowing he was outmatched yet choosing to fight just because he couldn't bear to see her suffer—was this what a husband was?

At the same time, Mei Xiaofang trembled, "You bastard, are you trying to make my daughter a widow on her wedding day?"

Su Zhenglong could only offer a bitter smile. This son-in-law was truly stubborn; he had likely offended people exactly like this before being banished.

The father and daughter didn't believe for a second that Sikong Jing had any hope of winning.

"Hahaha..."

Su Yang looked up and laughed. "You criminal, you have some courage. I, Su Yang, have always been kind-hearted, so I'll try to be quick when I break your limbs."

He was in high spirits; this criminal was truly brainless, accepting the challenge after just one provocation.

"You talk too much!"

Suddenly, Sikong Jing's icy voice exploded in Su Yang's ear.

Boom!

Su Yang's laughter cut off abruptly as a massive fist appeared. He instinctively crossed his arms to block, but Sikong Jing's voice echoed again: "Your speed is too slow!"

With a loud bang, the fist struck Su Yang square in the face!

Seeing stars, Su Yang flew backward involuntarily, blood spraying into the air before his body slammed heavily into the ground.

Sikong Jing drifted down, behind him were the... incredulous gazes of Su Yuexi and the others.
