Chapter 322: When Being Pretentious Backfires

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yue Rulan and Ji Lingxi’s situation was different. Ji Lingxi had been adopted by the Ji Family and she knew about it since she was young. She had been the happiest at home, so when she was treated like this, her anger lasted only a while before her discontentment faded, since she was laden with gratitude for the family’s years of nurturing.

However, Yue Rulan was the daughter of the Yue Family’s direct descendants. She grew up in the family like a pearl held preciously in two palms, never would she have expected to fall into such a pathetic state where her family would sacrifice her when faced with temptation.

The misery was indescribable.

If she had not been engaged to Ji Lingfeng first, Yue Rulan’s reaction would not have been as violent. She would probably just pray for her lifelong partner to be well… However, the fact was that Yue Rulan had been engaged to Ji Lingfeng for years now; she had long thought of herself as Ji Family’s daughter-in-law and Ji Lingfeng’s wife.

In spite of this, her family had promised her hand in marriage to someone else without her knowledge nor notification.

The truth tasted like a humiliation to Yue Rulan, as if she had betrayed her husband… it was hard to describe.

To add salt to the wound, that person had lusted after her missing husband’s only biological little sister at the same time. The humiliation was simply indescribable!

Yun Yang’s expression was very dark as well; after a moment, he spoke softly, "Don’t worry, my cousins. As long as I still breathe, I shall never allow such thing to happen to the both of you!"

Ji Lingxi’s gaze brightened abruptly, her feelings brimming as she looked into Yun Yang’s eyes.

His authoritative tone and oath to be their guardian made Ji Lingxi, who had been drifting with nowhere to depend on, feel immensely secure. The feeling was stark, not even as obvious and strong as when she had been with her brother.

"Please remember, both of you. Today is the last time we talk in such a manner as if we weren\'t family." Yun Yang reminded them again, "As long as we get through this, you two don’t have to worry about the rest! Leave everything else to me!"

"We understand, elder cousin!" Surprising Yun Yang, it was Ji Lingxi who spoke up and agreed first.

The girl’s eyes were sparkling. She was in disguise and did not look good at all, but the glimmering sentiment within her gaze still managed to give Yun Yang’s heart a jolt.

Yun Yang shifted his gaze subconsciously, nipping the stray thought in its bud and thinking about quickly finding a good man to marry Ji Lingxi after this incident was over. Eighth brother was gone, of course, the matter of his little sister’s marriage would be in his hands. Yun Yang had to fight the Four Seasons Tower for a long time still, he had to seek revenge for his brothers, his life would be threatened at any given moment - in no way was he a good choice!

On the second day, Lei Dongtian came over again and resumed his endless chatter with Yun Yang.

Even when Yun Yang was training the mystical beasts, Lei Dongtian watched with interest from the side, not bothering at all to avoid rousing suspicion.

The men from the four noble families who should and had the right to chastise this occurrence was mute as a fish. How could they go on with their job? They had come with a mission to watch and prevent others from seeing the mystical beast offspring being trained but now, a top-notch expert followed them all the time…

It didn\'t help that the expert was also someone who could smash them into meat pies once he got unhappy. Not only could the men not complete their tasks, they could not run away either… It was truly f*cking frustrating!

Chun Wanfeng and the others fared better than their guards. No matter how scared they were, they had still managed to put on the demeanor of noble young masters.

"Brother Yun, this Three-eye Boar…" Lei Dongtian suggested, "If you wanted to enhance its inheritance further, doing so might still be lacking…"

Yun Yang asked, "May I ask if it were Brother Lei, how would you go about it?"

"Change its blood directly, so its lineage can be enhanced from the base. This Three-eye Boar can at least be pushed to the level of a ninth intermediate beast," Lei Dongtian spoke confidently.

Yun Yang nodded. "Brother Lei’s idea is extraordinary and foresighted, but I wonder what beast’s blood should be used in exchange?"

"The blood of a tenth-level mystical beast Bear of Earth will be good. Secure a Bear of Earth alongside the Three-eye Bear and while letting out its original blood, transfuse the Bear of Earth’s blood at the same time on the other side. Once the cycle is over, it will be completed," Lei Dongtian explained.

Qiu Yunsan and the rest of the Qiu Family’s men were dumbstruck when they heard him. They could only feel an innate sense of exasperation.

What the f*ck?

If we could have gotten a Bear of Earth, why do we even want this Three-eye Boar? This bastard is simply spewing words which are easier said than done!

Furthermore, sacrificing a Bear of Earth, a tenth level beast, to enhance the Three-eye Boar to ninth-level intermediate - was this even worth it? Who is the stupid one here? Why would you even suggest such a terrible proposition?

Yun Yang replied, "Brother Lei’s thought can be carried out. One cause should not bother two people - I shall pass the task of seizing the Bear of Earth to Brother Lei and also the follow-up of enhancing this Three-eye Boar. This young brother wishes Brother Lei success in achieving this unprecedented act!"

Lei Dongtian’s expression froze as he chuckled without mirth. "Heh, heh, heh."

"Heh heh…" Yun Yang mirrored his laughter.

"Heh heh…" Qiu Yunsan couldn\'t help but chuckle along.

Lei Dongtian turned over and glared daggers at Qiu Yunsan. "What are you chuckling about?"

Qiu Yunsan was immediately offended by the tone.

You chuckled, boss chuckled, and I only chuckled for the fun of it since I got the humor. Why are you glaring at me as if you\'re going to kill someone? Isn\'t this biased treatment a little too obvious?

Can\'t I even chuckle now?

Qiu Yunsan was also a noble young master, how could he endure such humiliation? He knew he could not win, but he could not stay a coward either.

He pushed his luck and said, "This Three-eye Boar is mine. I’m the one who has the most right to speak here, alright? So what if I chuckled?"

Lei Dongtian looked at him for a long time before he suddenly chuckled and said, "So it belongs to you. I was still hesitating if I should promise Young Brother Yun to capture the Bear of Earth - now I don’t have to…"

Qiu Yunsan felt giddily relieved, and spoke indignantly, "What sort of an existence does the Bear of Earth hold? Even if you promise it, you won’t be able to catch it!"

Lei Dongtian rolled his eyes while looking at Qiu Yunsan, who was about to lash out as well.

"The Bear of Earth is a pinnacle almighty creature… How can it be so easily captured?" Xia Bingchuan scoffed, folding his arms. "The truth has been spoken, and yet you want to act like a savage and beat someone up now?"

Chun Wanfeng chuckled and said, "Who else is there to wallop if not you fellows for picking at his scab? You’re all sharp-tongued. You know well that it’s impossible to catch the Bear of Earth but you have to put Young Master Lei in a tough spot. You deserve being beaten up…"

Lei Dongtian’s handsome face was completely dark now.

He had never held these fellows in high regard, so he was just simply speaking to show off his status, promising the unachievable. In layman terms, he was simply being pretentious!

Who would have known that there were people who were so competitive? His pretentiousness had actually backfired!

These three people knew that Lei Dongtian’s cultivation base was mighty and far exceeded their knowledge and their ability to offend, but this rascal had beaten Dong Tianleng so badly. Now that there was a chance to mock him, they would not miss it for the world.

Furthermore, this bastard was being pretentious in front of them, talking about changing the blood of a Three-eye Boar with a Bear of Earth’s… It was going overboard, to the point where he actually seemed silly for even suggesting it.

Anyone would know that these two mystical beast species had a huge difference- more than heaven and earth’s difference - of two levels. The Bear of Earth was the top link in the food chain of Tianxuan Continent’s known mystical beasts - it had far surpassed the existence of a pinnacle beast!

It was already back-breaking to be able to subdue it; what more to capture it alive and take its blood? Besides, even if the Bear of Earth could be caught alive, who would be so stupid as to waste such a precious beast to exchange its blood for a Three-eye Boar? This was far worse than just being wasteful!

It was just like asking if someone would be willing to take a dragon’s blood and transfuse it into a snake?

It was simply impossible unless the decision maker was an idiot with a big hole in his brain who had gotten too pretentious to the point of being dumb!

This fellow was really something, to be able to boast of such tales in helping the Three-eye Boar advance in its levels. This was obviously taking the rest of them as country bumpkins!

According to his theory, the young masters could be catching a phoenix to change the blood of a Phantom Vulture then the Phantom Vulture would have the blood of phoenix and leap far in its level. It was a form of gloating that was no stranger to anyone present there on that day.

Lei Dongtian’s expression was dark as he spoke faintly, "I must say, the three of you are truly daring indeed."

Qiu Yunsan smirked as he said, "What is it now, can\'t Young Master Lei bear to hear the truth? Are you gonna beat us up like you did to Dong Tianleng? We can’t overpower you anyway, do we have to get into position? Be subservient and await your punishment?"

The experts of the three noble families were as anxious as much as they were exasperated.

What was up with these three sirs? We can\'t afford to offend this person in front of us!

Aside from that, the three young men had their families’ experts feeling glad too. After all, their young master had their redeeming qualities! They were rather loyal to brotherhood…

Just because of this, the experts felt that they were not exactly on the suffering end if a fight were to break out later and they had to be walloped as well.

It was at this moment that Yun Yang voiced out with precise timing and hollered, "What now? What are you three making a fuss about? Are you plotting rebellion?"

Chun Wanfeng answered, "How could we dare to? It’s just that we saw that Young Master Lei has a good idea and wanted to prod him into action so we can complete this great feat. Who would have known that Master Lei didn\'t fall for it."

Yun Yang seemed to be even more angered. "Brother Lei is a guest of honor. Why are you treating a guest of honor like this? Brother Lei’s only joking with you all, can’t you take a joke now? At least, your knowledge has grown, how can you all be like this?"

Yun Yang’s tone and expression were impeccable, his aura was reminiscent of a boss teaching his followers a lesson!

Chun Wanfeng and the others were receptive to his admonishment as they said, "I’m wrong. It’s all our fault. We have no eyes, how dare we overstep our bounds."

Yun Yang turned to Lei Dongtian. "Brother Lei, please don’t mind them. Although they’re unbearable, they’re not bad people. It’s just that their temper is just like the one you’ve beaten up; barely in control. Brother Lei, you are a merciful man, are you not?"

Lei Dongtian chuckled awkwardly, "It doesn’t matter, it’s alright. As you\'ve already said… I am merciful indeed!"
