Chapter 389: 386: Offering This as an Apology!_1
You challenge me, and I’m supposed to accept just like that?
What kind of logic is this?
However, Shao Ming couldn’t take the insult. Hearing Yang Chen describe him as some nobody, Shao Ming became instantly furious, thundering, “Yang Chen, cut the crap, do you have the guts to fight me?”
This was the height of insult.
Especially in front of Han Lingling and many disciples. Moreover, it was said by Yang Chen, who had surpassed him in the Trial Tower. He felt more and more that Yang Chen was doing it deliberately and targeting him. His blood boiling with rage, he couldn’t wait to immediately fight Yang Chen to the death.
Seeing Shao Ming so impulsive and his eyes filled with astonishing anger, everyone knew that Shao Ming was furious.
Only Steward Xu stood there with his hands behind his back, his eyebrows furrowed, and sighed.
Others might not see it, but how could he, at this age?
The gap between Shao Ming and Yang Chen was too big.
This wasn’t about the difference in strength, but in temperament. Compared to Yang Chen, the geniuses of Beishan Main City, as well as Shao Ming, who wanted to fight Yang Chen to the death, had the temperament of children. They were played around by just a few words from Yang Chen, and they couldn’t find a way out.
Shao Ming may seem to be full of fighting intent, but how could he have the upper hand if he is not calm when fighting?
The key point was that he knew Yang Chen very well, and most likely Shao Ming would fall into Yang Chen’s rhythm next. How could he gain any advantage if he entered someone else’s rhythm even before the fight started?
But what could they do even if they knew this?
Considering Han Lingling’s witch-like reputation and her father’s status, how could Steward Xu stop it? Shao Ming was to blame for knowing that Han Lingling was using him but still stepped forward. Who could he blame when he suffered the loss later?
Nowadays, Yang Chen remained calm and composed, saying unhurriedly: “Your name is Shao Ming? You say I have the guts to fight you? You seem to have your brain damaged? I just came out of the Trial Tower and my True Qi isn’t fully recovered. On top of that, I just fought several intense battles, why should I fight you? Who do you think you are? You say you want to fight me? I must fight you? Do I owe you? I don’t fight you, and there’s no harm to me. If I fight you, what benefits do you give me? Even if I might get injured, why should I fight you?”
When the words fell, the geniuses of Beishan Main City were all dumbfounded and suddenly felt that Yang Chen made a lot of sense.
This is just a change of mindset that occurred in a short time.
At first, they felt that Yang Chen’s reluctance to fight was due to cowardice and being weak-willed.
But now, after listening to Yang Chen, they suddenly felt that Shao Ming was just causing trouble for no reason and was being unreasonable.
Just look.
There’s no difference.
Yang Chen has just come out of the Trial Tower and has just fought several tough battles, exhausted both mentally and physically, and drained of physical strength and True Qi. Now that he can only display thirty percent of his strength, why should he fight Shao Ming? Yang Chen isn’t that dumb, is he?
On the other hand, Shao Ming appeared righteous in his desire to challenge Yang Chen, but upon careful consideration, aren’t you just taking advantage of someone’s vulnerability?
Moreover, even if Yang Chen was at his peak state, there would be no reason for him to fight. There’s no harm in not fighting, but even if he won the fight, he might still get a bump or a bruise. How unprofitable?
For a moment, Shao Ming was speechless, pointing at Yang Chen and only stammering without saying any truths.
Finally, all he could do was shout: “I just think you’re too scared.”
“Heh, Shao Ming, interpret it as you like. If you want to prove how powerful you are, there are countless masters in the world, go challenge whoever you want. Forgive me, Yang Chen, for not accompanying you.” Yang Chen turned around to leave.
Are you kidding me, his time is so precious? Worth wasting here with you?
He knew Han Lingling wanted to get back at him through Shao Ming, but why should he give her the chance?
However, Han Lingling, to some extent, was still smart. Seeing Yang Chen about to leave, she immediately shouted, “Yang Chen, what do you want? As long as you dare to fight Shao Ming, it’s not a problem to add some bet.”
“Oh? A bet?” Yang Chen rubbed his chin, suddenly interested.
Honestly, Yang Chen didn’t mind gambling for something of value that could also upset Han Lingling.
With a smile at the corner of his mouth, he said slowly, “Miss Han, if you really know me, Yang Chen, you should have heard that not long ago, I made a small bet with a not-so-well-known brother over a minor disagreement. It was one million Spirit Stones. I heard that Miss Han comes from a wealthy family, so it shouldn’t be less than this one million, right?”
Hearing Yang Chen’s words with laughter, Steward Xu knew that something was going wrong.
Both Han Lingling and Shao Ming were starting to fall into Yang Chen’s rhythm.
If it were him, he would have withdrawn immediately, but how could Han Lingling and Shao Ming see it? They were still excited, seeing that Yang Chen had suddenly agreed to fight.
“Humph, Yang Chen, don’t waste so much time talking to me. I, the Young Miss, have plenty of Spirit Stones. How many do you want? I have as many as you need!” Han Lingling gritted her teeth and shouted.
Yang Chen smiled, knowing he had caught a big fish to slaughter.
That’s great!
Without saying a word, he immediately said, “Miss Han, I won’t bet much on this. Five million Spirit Stones!”
At these words, there was a hissing sound throughout the scene.
Everyone couldn’t help but gasp for cold air.
Even though Han Lingling thought her courage was not small, when she heard the number five million, she still shrank back a bit in fear. This amount of Spirit Stones was not something she could just take out even with her background.
However, when she thought about her grudge with Yang Chen, she immediately shouted, “No problem, five million it is. If you win, I’ll give you five million Spirit Stones, but what if you lose?”
Yang Chen yawned, “By rights, if I lose, I naturally should give Miss Han five million too. But Miss Han doesn’t seem interested in my Spirit Stones, does she?”
Even though five million was a lot, he could still afford to gamble it. He didn’t have it, but Elder Hu and Elder Yun beside him would. Even if the two of them didn’t, others in the Yuanshan Sect would. It was simply impossible for him, the Young Sect Master of Yuanshan Sect, not to have the right to spend five million Spirit Stones.
But, just after his appointment as the Young Sect Master, where could he just spend the money so easily?
However, Han Lingling wasn’t really interested in his five million Spirit Stones either.
With her venomous heart and viciousness, after hearing Yang Chen’s words, she said fiercely, “Five million Spirit Stones? Humph, I don’t want them. If you lose, I want you to kneel on the ground and kowtow a hundred times to me, and then cut off both your arms as an apology!”
