I'll Let You Apologize

The grand procession for fetching the bride stopped at the Yu family's main gate. However, no one could have imagined that the greater the ostentation, the deeper the pain it would ultimately cause.

Two groups of people were in a standoff. Yang Wu was among the Yang family's procession, but he was covered in wounds, being bandaged amidst the crowd. It was clear he had just been through a battle, and judging by his injuries, his opponent had shown no mercy.

"You had a betrothal already set, yet at this point, not only do you go back on your word, but you also injure Yang Wu. Clan Head Yu, do you truly believe our Yang family is easy to provoke?" the leader of the Yang family's procession shouted in a low voice.

This person was named Yang Qinzheng, one of the many experts of the Yang family. He was usually in charge of fetching the bride, serving to deter any ill-intentioned individuals.

However, today's events left him, Yang Qinzheng, in a difficult position. If the Yang family had suffered a loss during a betrothal in the past, he would have acted without a second thought. But today, he truly didn't know how to proceed.

The Clan Head of the Yu family sneered with complete confidence, "Yang Qinzheng, you don't need to threaten me. Xiao Hui is a renowned beauty in the Great Wilderness, and to be worthy of her, one must naturally possess the strength to match her. Yes, our Yu family did have a betrothal with your Yang family, but now Yang Wu is a cripple. He still wants to marry Xiao Hui? To put it bluntly, isn't that a toad trying to eat swan meat?"

Xiao Hui was the name of the Yu family's young lady, Yu Xiaohui.

Yu Xiaohui also sneered, "Yang Wu, if I were you, I'd get lost and go back. You've lost an arm and will only be a cripple from now on. Why are you here to humiliate yourself?"

Yang Wu's eyes were bloodshot at this moment. He never would have imagined that Yu Xiaohui, who was usually so docile and obedient to him, would betray him today.

As the saying goes, adversity reveals true feelings. He once thought Yu Xiaohui would be his everything.

But he was too naive.

"Yu Xiaohui, you will regret this," Yang Wu gritted out.

"Regret?" At this moment, a mocking voice rang out, "Yang Wu, you think too highly of yourself."

The voice belonged to Wang Yunkai, the new powerful figure Yu Xiaohui had attached herself to.

Wang Yunkai stood among the Yu family's ranks and said dismissively, "Xiao Hui will be happy and live a life of ease with me. If she were to marry a cripple like you, who knows what hardships she might face in the future. Why would she regret it?"

Yu Xiaohui leaned affectionately against Wang Yunkai's shoulder and said sweetly, "Brother Wang, why bother with this cripple?"

Wang Yunkai was clearly smitten by Yu Xiaohui's docile and attentive demeanor. Being teased like this further fueled his desire to impress, and he sneered, "Yang Wu, hurry up and get lost. And your Yang family's procession, I, Wang Yunkai, am putting my words out there today: Yu Xiaohui is my woman, so don't you Yang family even think about her. Because no one in your Yang family is worthy of Xiao Hui!"

Although Yang Qinzheng was furious, he was utterly helpless.

Wang Yunkai was from the major clan, the Wang family.

Now that Wang Yunkai had stepped forward to protect the Yu family, what could their Yang family do?

Yang Wu's eyes were filled with unwillingness. He looked at Wang Yunkai with eyes like a leopard's, bloodshot. It was a gaze filled with anger and hatred.

Being stared at by such eyes made Wang Yunkai feel uncomfortable. He said angrily, "What, Yang Wu, do you still want to come over and humiliate yourself? Haha, the previous exchange didn't seem to make you taste enough pain. I'm not bullying you, Yang Wu. Let alone you, all those so-called geniuses in the Yang family are all trash in my eyes, and you are just one of that trash."

Yang Wu, mocked by these words, wanted to retort, but he felt completely powerless.

He had already fought Wang Yunkai, and the result was a crushing defeat.

Never mind that his arm was broken; even if it wasn't, how could he be a match for Wang Yunkai, who was at the Body Refining Realm Fifth Level?

Who could refute Wang Yunkai's words?

At least, he was powerless to refute them.

But just as he was in despair and powerlessness, a voice suddenly interjected at an inopportune moment: "Is that so? Wang Yunkai, you keep saying everyone in our Yang family is trash. I, on the other hand, want to see what kind of person you, Wang Yunkai, truly are."

As these words fell, Yang Chen, who was traveling with Yang Yuan, gradually appeared.

The young man stood out conspicuously under the dazzling sunlight.

Yang Chen held a silver spear, sat on a fiery red-skinned steed, and slowly advanced.

"It's Yang Chen!"

"The most outstanding genius of the Yang family, Yang Chen!"

When the Yu family members saw Yang Chen appear, their expressions changed slightly. Yu Xiaohui was no exception. Yang Chen's reputation was not just hearsay to her, as she had witnessed Yang Chen's prowess firsthand.

However, it was different for Wang Yunkai.

As a genius from a major clan, he paid little attention to the Coming-of-Age Ceremony of mid-tier clans.

As for Yang Chen's achievements at the Coming-of-Age Ceremony, he only regarded them as rumors.

"Haha, so it's you. I just silenced one trash, and now another trash has shown up. I didn't expect your Yang family to have so much trash," Wang Yunkai said with a cold laugh.

"Is that so, trash? Wang Yunkai, if I remember correctly, you still owe me an apology. I'm curious, since you keep calling me trash, what does that make you, who owes me an apology?" Yang Chen's tone was sharp.

Hearing Yang Chen mention the 'apology,' Wang Yunkai's expression changed slightly.

Indeed, in theory, he did owe Yang Chen an apology.

Back then, no one would have thought Yang Chen could cure Feng Xuewu's mother, but Yang Chen had done it. If he didn't apologize to Yang Chen, wouldn't that mean he didn't respect Feng Xuewu at all? Forcing him to apologize to Yang Chen was simply wishful thinking.

For a genius from a major clan like him, face was everything.

Wang Yunkai said with a grim expression, "Yang Chen, your Yang family is indeed good at producing trash. So, your Yang family's betrothal failed, and you couldn't force your way through, so you're planning to reason with me? Hahahaha, Yang Chen, if you were to kneel and beg me, I might consider apologizing to you."

"Too overbearing!"

"Too overbearing."

Many people from the Yang family could no longer contain themselves.

This Wang Yunkai was too arrogant, constantly calling them trash, completely disregarding their Yang family.

If such mockery were to spread, where would their Yang family's reputation stand?

Yang Chen had to admit that Wang Yunkai was more troublesome than Yang Wu.

He smiled and shook his head, then dismounted from his horse and slowly walked towards the crowd. "You've got it wrong, Wang Yunkai. I'm asking you to apologize simply because it's a matter of fact. But I see you lack the integrity of a man. You were just saying our Yang family is all trash. I'm curious, if you were to be defeated by someone from our Yang family, what would that make you?"

I had a high fever today, 39 degrees... The update is a bit late, I apologize.
