Chapter 18: One vs Two? Misunderstanding Deepens

"Shang Hongchen, I think you misunderstood." Chen Chuyang waved his hands repeatedly; he didn't want to fight her—this woman is a lunatic, not easy to deal with.

Once a fight starts, it's a life-or-death kind; Chen Chuyang understands this crazy woman, but in Longshe Cheng she's a relatively famous woman—once she acts, she strikes hard; over the years, many have been crippled by her.

"Chen Chuyang, I didn't misunderstand; I never thought you were this kind of person, actually laying hands on my sister—are you doing this to get revenge on me?"

"If you want revenge on me, you can just come find me—I, Shang Hongchen, will take it."

Shang Hongchen's sword blade trembled, a sword qi surged.

Her figure appeared before Chen Chuyang, the sharp sword flashing, aiming at his neck; Chen Chuyang stepped back two steps, grabbed Shang Yingnian and pulled him in front as a shield; Shang Hongchen's blade stopped instantly, she forcibly changed her attack direction and target, forcibly retreated, eyes blazing.

"Chen Chuyang, are you still human?"

"Shang Hongchen, if there's something, put down the sword and talk slowly; don't just lash out—if you hurt me, that wouldn't be good."

Shang Yingnian found himself unable to move, his right hand pinned by Chen Chuyang, completely unable to resist.

For a moment he even forgot to dodge or resist; seeing the sword so close, he only then realized the danger—in that instant he narrowly escaped death.

He turned his head, eyes fixed on Chen Chuyang, constantly flashing his gaze, as if saying, "Do you want to kill me?" In that situation just now, he had no preparation whatsoever; if his daughter were ruthless, he would really be killed.

Chen Chuyang ignored his gaze and said, "It's fine; your precious daughter won't kill you—rest assured, I know what I'm doing."

You have a few thoughts in your head, playing with my life like a joke—death isn't yours, you definitely…

Shang Yingnian struggled a few times, unable to break free from Chen Chuyang's hand, only then discovering his own strength was actually inferior to Chen Chuyang's; he looked at Chen Chuyang in astonishment—knowing he is a True Qi Realm practitioner who has entered True Gang, while Chen Chuyang is merely a skin-shedding beginner; in his eyes, there's no difference between him and an ant.

In terms of strength, he is naturally inferior to this person who has condensed True Qi, but the fact is the opposite.

After several attempts, Shang Yingnian found Chen Chuyang's strength immense, unable to break free.

"Chen Chuyang, can you let me go?"

Shang Yingnian also wanted to test Chen Chuyang's strength—this Chen Chuyang, whom many consider an ordinary person, seems not so simple.

This was the first time he felt curious about him.

"Can't."

"……"

Shang Hongchen flared with anger: "Chen Chuyang, are you still a man? Hiding behind my father means what? If you have the ability, fight me face to face."

"Shang Hongchen, you really misunderstood; I didn't do anything—don't believe me? Ask Hongxue."

Shang Hongxue stepped forward, explaining: "Sister, there's really nothing between us; Elder Brother Chuyang isn't the kind of person you think; we're very pure, you misunderstood."

Xiao Pangzi Shang Yue stood up then, saying: "Second sister, we believe you're pure, but as for him—who knows."

Xiao Pangzi pointed at Chen Chuyang, expressing doubt.

Seriously doubting this person.

We're all men, we understand each other—no need to pretend purity.

Chen Chuyang frowned slightly, staring at Xiao Pangzi, inwardly scheming about this Xiao Pangzi—"a troublemaker, right"—don't give him a chance to catch him; otherwise, I'll definitely make him try my those potions, guaranteeing he'll never forget.

Shang Yue shivered, then saw Chen Chuyang staring at him—that gaze was deadly and terrifying.

"His gaze is so scary, gurgling."

Xiao Pangzi hurriedly hid behind Shang Hongxue, not daring to meet Chen Chuyang's eyes.

Shang Hongxue gave her brother a white-eyed look—timid as a mouse.

"Big sister, you must believe me—there's really nothing happened between us; you truly misunderstood."

Shang Hongxue anxiously explained, not wanting the two to fight—one is her sister, the other Elder Brother Chuyang; neither wants trouble; fortunately, Elder Brother Chuyang restrained himself and didn't strike his sister.

Father and younger brother too—love watching a spectacle, not minding if it gets big, actually hoping it blows up; they're just here to watch the show, especially Father, who clearly resolved the misunderstanding yet doesn't step forward to speak.

"Father, if you don't say a couple of words, I'll ignore you from now on."

Shang Yingnian heard his precious daughter say that, hurriedly stepped forward to speak: "Hongchen ah, put away your sword; if you accidentally hurt Father, that wouldn't be good."

Shang Hongchen coldly stared at Chen Chuyang, with no intention of sheathing her sword.

"Hongchen ah, Father's frail constitution can't withstand your sword."

"Listen, you've misunderstood this kid—he hasn't done anything."

Shang Hongchen coldly said: "Father, don't be deceived by him—this person loves to deceive; don't believe what he says."

"I saw it all—Hongxue vomited, and…"

It seemed she was about to mention something hard to speak of, but couldn't get the words out.

Her sister had actually been made pregnant by Chen Chuyang—this matter absolutely cannot be tolerated.

Shang Hongchen absolutely will not allow Chen Chuyang to harm her sister; this man taking revenge on her and thereby hurting her sister is her reverse scale—she must make Chen Chuyang pay the price.

"Hey hey, Shang Hongchen, don't slander my purity; you're shameless, but I want face too."

"Between me and Hongxue we're pure and clean; don't use your dirty thoughts to speculate about our purity."

"Right, Hongxue?"

Shang Hongxue followed with a nod: "Mm-hmm."

Well-behaved, just like a little chick.

Seeing this, Shang Hongchen grew even angrier.

"Chen Chuyang, you… bastard, I'm going to kill you."

Her sister had been completely brainwashed by him, no longer her sister.

Damn it.

How outrageous.

She must kill Chen Chuyang.

In her fury, she drew her sword, attacked—a deadly strike.

Chen Chuyang reached out again, pulling Shang Yingnian; this time Shang Yingnian was prepared and fled immediately.

He didn't want to be used a third time as a shield by Chen Chuyang; he also wanted to see if Chen Chuyang was hiding his strength—otherwise… he wouldn't be holding him down.

"Huh?"

"The hand was caught again."

"He resisted, but couldn't."

"His hand was pulled by a huge force, and then his whole body was blocked in front of Chen Chuyang."

"Chen Chuyang hid behind again; Shang Hongchen also got ready, changed direction, and attacked from the side—who would have thought Chen Chuyang would shift position again, but Shang Hongchen shifted as well, and he followed her moves so professionally it was just playing with her."

"Shang Yingnian felt dizzy."

""Kid, don't keep turning, I'm going to get dizzy.""

""You make your daughter stop.""

""Hongchen, can you?""

""Ah!""

"The turning continued, the two people sped up, constantly changing direction and speed."

"In the end, Shang Hongchen's sword was still drawn."

"It was firmly stuck in Shang Yingnian's arm."

"Shang Yingnian blinked: "……""

"Shang Hongchen also blinked: "……""

"Chen Chuyang exclaimed in surprise: "Huh, Uncle Shang, your arm is bleeding—looks serious.""

"Shang Hongxue: "……""
