Chapter 489: Yanjing Cao Family

Yang Shaocheng lifted his head, gazing at Lin Yang with a bleak look.

In that fight just now, I have already been seriously wounded.

And Lin Yang still stood before him as if nothing had happened.

The gap between them is actually this huge.

Thinking back to his earlier thoughts, Yang Shaocheng found it funny.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and said to Lin Yang.

"I am inferior in skill; go ahead and strike."

Looking at Yang Shaocheng with his eyes tightly shut, Lin Yang nodded and said.

"As expected of a master of the generation, he has backbone, unlike those clowns."

Saying that, he gripped the long sword in his hand.

Just as Lin Yang was about to behead Yang Shaocheng, a great shout rang out.

"Stop!"

As the words fell, a bespectacled refined middle-aged man shouted, panting.

Behind the middle-aged man followed two people resembling bodyguards.

However, both wore Tang-style clothing, hands clasped behind their backs, with extremely arrogant expressions.

After glancing at everyone present, his eyes held even more contempt.

Lin Yang looked at the refined middle-aged man and asked.

"Are you a member of the Yang family?"

The middle-aged man shook his head.

"No."

"Then are you his relative?"

"No either."

Lin Yang sneered, "Since you're neither, what right do you have to stop me?"

"This is a life-and-death battle; the loser dies. What's the problem?"

The middle-aged man adjusted his cravat and said to Lin Yang.

"Then I don't want him to die?"

"As long as I want him dead, he must die."

The man, hearing this, was not angry either.

He chuckled lightly and produced a business card.

"Young man, don't speak so definitively."

Lin Yang took the business card and looked at it.

"Yanjing Cao family."

The middle-aged man proudly nodded and said to Lin Yang.

"That's right, my family is the Cao clan, one of the eight great royal families!"

"Do you still want to defy me now?"

Lin Yang sighed and shook his head.

Seeing Lin Yang shake his head, the middle-aged man smiled and said.

"You still have some self-awareness."

"You misunderstand; I mean, what relation does the Yanjing Cao family have with me?"

"I don't know you, and I have no intention of giving you face."

"Yang Shaocheng, I will surely kill him."

Hearing that, the middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, his expression unfriendly, and said to Lin Yang.

"Can't you even give me, Cao Bin, some face?"

"If you, Cao Bin, want face, earn it yourself; you won't get it from me."

Cao Bin, hearing this, laughed angrily.

"Unbelievable, unbelievable!"

"How dare you speak to me like this!"

"The last person who spoke to me like that probably hasn't even finished elementary school."

As his words fell, the two men behind him instantly stepped forward, staring intently at Lin Yang.

Now, as soon as Cao Bin gives the order, they can kill Lin Yang!

The two thought that.

Seeing the two men standing before him, Cao Bin smiled proudly and said.

"You still have a chance to regret."

Upon hearing that, Lin Yang directly placed the long sword against Yang Shaocheng's neck.

"I have no regrets."

Seeing Lin Yang's sword tip, it had already pierced Yang Shaocheng's throat.

Cao Bin's face darkened, and he shouted.

"Stop!"

But Lin Yang still had no intention of stopping.

Cao Bin's expression shifted, and he finally compromised.

"Previously, I spoke too harshly; please, this young brother, give the Cao family some face, show mercy."

Seeing Cao Bin yield, Lin Yang only then stopped his action.

He curiously asked Cao Bin.

"I want to know, what are you Cao family doing in Xianggang, forming a marriage alliance?"

Cao Bin shook his head, looked toward Yang Shao Cheng and said.

"We came to Xianggang specially to find Master Yang."

"What do you want him for?"

Those words made Cao Bin silent for a moment.

He looked around, then looked at Lin Yang.

He took a deep breath, suppressing his inner anger, and said to Lin Yang.

"Please, sir, give me some face, let's gather at the hotel."

"By then, sir, whatever you want to know, I will tell you."

Lin Yang, hearing this, laughed heartily and said.

"I am the type who yields to softness, not hardness; since you said that, I'll agree."

Having said that, he grabbed Yang Shao Cheng and said to Cao Bin.

"Lead the way."

Cao Bin glanced at Yang Shao Cheng, took a deep breath.

"Please!"

Before leaving, Lin Yang looked at the grim-faced Huo Zhi Xiang.

"Huo Er, how much did you lose this time?"

"You say you don't learn your lesson; that night I just fixed you up, how can you not believe I can defeat Yang Shao Cheng?"

"Next time, behave a bit better."

Huo Zhi Xiang, hearing this, clenched his fists in anger.

Lin Yang made himself lose face in front of all these people!

"Lin Family petty thief, I, Huo Zhi Xiang, cannot coexist with you under the same sky."

He had just finished speaking when Huo Zhi Dong beside him said.

"Second brother, this is your personal matter; I hope you don't implicate the Huo family."

"Otherwise, as the family head, I have the right to deal with you."

Huo Zhi Xiang, hearing this, had veins bulging on his forehead; he clenched his fists and stared at Huo Zhi Dong for a while.

He exhaled, then bowed his hands to Huo Zhi Dong and said.

"Big brother, I just spoke impulsively."

"How could I possibly take revenge on Lin Yang? He might someday become our Huo family's son-in-law."

"You say that's right, Yan Fei."

Huo Yan Fei, upon hearing, instantly thought of her sister's affair with Lin Yang being exposed.

Her face instantly turned pale, not knowing how to answer.

Huo Zhi Dong, hearing this, looked at his daughter with a strange expression.

"Yan Fei, when did you start walking together with Mr. Lin?"

"Ah?"

Huo Yan Fei, looking at her father's expression, instantly realized he had misunderstood.

"Dad, it's not what you think!"

Huo Zhi Dong laughed heartily, patted Huo Yan Fei's shoulder and said.

"You young people value love freedom; Dad won't interfere."

Huo Yan Fei, who had wanted to say something, instantly fell silent.

Her father having spoken of love freedom, she could go back and tell her sister.

Meanwhile, on Lin Yang's side, after he and Cao Bin arrived at the hotel private room.

After Cao Bin ordered a few dishes, he said to Lin Yang.

"Mr. Lin, I only just arrived in Xianggang today; I don't know about your previous grudge with Master Yang."

"What I said earlier might be somewhat wrong; don't take it to heart."

Lin Yang looked at Cao Bin with interest.

He had come into contact with several members of the Royal Family; Cao Bin is definitely the most low-key among them.

He chuckled and said: "Ignorance is no crime."

Those words made Cao Bin secretly frown, even somewhat angry.

As a member of the Royal Family, he dares to speak to me like this!

But now Yang Shao Cheng is in his hands; I can only endure.

He took a deep breath, showed a smile, and got straight to the point.

"If Master Yang has done anything wrong, I, Cao Bin, am willing to apologize on his behalf."

"Furthermore, I can even compensate Master Yang to you, as long as you name a price."

Lin Yang, hearing this, chuckled and said.

"You still haven't told me what you want him to do."
