At that moment, a youth about thirty years old slowly spoke.

Translation: At that moment, a youth about thirty years old slowly spoke.

At that moment, a youth about thirty years old slowly spoke.

Zhenxing, Lin Yang is your friend; is it appropriate for us to wait this long?

Zhenxing, Lin Yang is your friend; is it appropriate for us to wait this long?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhenxing frowned and spoke.

Translation: Xiao Zhenxing frowned upon hearing that and said.

Better: "Hearing this, Xiao Zhenxing frowned and said."

Brother, Lin Yang is busy, so he's late; you should understand.

Translation: "Brother, Lin Yang has something to do, so he's late; you should understand."

As soon as he finished speaking, a somewhat handsome youth around twenty standing nearby said.

Translation: As soon as his words fell, a rather handsome youth about twenty years old at the side said.

We can phrase: "No sooner had he spoken than a rather handsome youth about twenty years old at the side said."

What could be more important than our Xiao family?

Translation: "What could be more important than our Xiao Clan?"

He doesn't actually think he's somebody important, does he?

Translation: "He couldn't really think he's someone important, could he?"

If it weren't for Gu Lao, he wouldn't even be worthy to step into our Xiao family's door.

Translation: "Without Gu Lao, he wouldn't even have the qualifications to enter our Xiao Clan's gate!"

Hearing this, Xiao Zhenxing's face grew grim.

Translation: Upon hearing that, Xiao Zhenxing's face darkened.

Zhenyu, don't talk recklessly.

Translation: "Zhenyu, you shouldn't talk nonsense."

Even without Gu Lao, Lin Yang is still quite formidable.

Translation: "Even without Gu Lao, Lin Yang is still a formidable person."

When we get to the Xiao family later, you can't talk like that; to him, we're just like anyone else.

Translation: "When we arrive at the Xiao Clan later, you must not say that; in his eyes, our Xiao Clan members are no different from ordinary people!"

The younger Xiao family members heard this and all looked contemptuous.

Translation: Upon hearing that, the younger generation of the Xiao Clan all showed disdain on their faces.

If he's really that good, why have I never heard of him before?

Translation: "If he's that formidable, how come I've never heard his name before?"

Xing brother, you're not just flattering him, are you?

Translation: "Xingge, you're not deliberately praising him, are you?"

Seeing everyone's disdain, Xiao Zhenxing held back what he was about to say.

Translation: Seeing everyone's disdainful looks, Xiao Zhenxing swallowed the words he wanted to say.

Once these guys are taken care of, they'll know why the flowers are so red.

Translation: "These guys, once they're dealt with, will know why the flowers are so red."

Seeing Xiao Zhenxing not speak, Xiao Zhenyu smirked triumphantly.

Translation: Seeing Xiao Zhenxing silent, Xiao Zhenyu smirked triumphantly.

Looks like I was right.

Translation: "Looks like I guessed right."

The Xiao family patriarch heard the younger generation but said nothing.

Translation: The elder of the Xiao Clan listened to the younger generation's words and said nothing.

He thought the younger generation needed a talking-to to realize how big the world is.

Translation: He felt that the younger generation needed a lesson to learn how vast heaven and earth are.

Repeating it wouldn't make any difference.

Translation: "No matter how much I say, it's useless."

Soon, a doorbell rang.

Translation: Not long after, a doorbell rang.

Hearing it, Xiao Zhenxing smiled and said.

Translation: Upon hearing it, Xiao Zhenxing's face lit up with a smile as he said.

That should be Lin Yang; I'll go meet him.

Translation: "It should be Lin Yang arriving; I'll go meet him."

Then Xiao Zhenyu spoke up eagerly.

Translation: At that moment, Xiao Zhenyu volunteered and said.

I'll go check out the person Brother Zhenxing praised so highly.

Translation: "I'll go take a look at the person whom Zhenxingge praised to the heavens."

When they reached the door and saw Lin Yang, Xiao Zhenyu looked scornful.

Translation: When they came outside and saw Lin Yang, Xiao Zhenyu's face showed disdain.

Lin Yang wore ordinary clothes and saw Xiao Zhenyu still laughing.

Translation: Lin Yang was dressed ordinarily, and seeing Xiao Zhenyu still laughing there.

He showed none of the bearing of a master.

Translation: "He completely lacked the demeanor of an expert."

How impressive could someone like that really be?

Translation: "How formidable could someone like that possibly be?"

Xiao Zhenyu shook his head and spoke before Xiao Zhenxing.

Translation: Xiao Zhenyu shook his head and said in front of Xiao Zhenxing.

Brother Zhenxing, this guy looks just average.

Translation: "Zhenxingge, this person looks quite ordinary."

If you weren't being misled, or if you weren't misleading us.

Translation: "If you weren't deceived, or if you weren't deceiving us."

Xiao Zhenxing replied at once.

Translation: Xiao Zhenxing immediately said.

Zhenyu, you shouldn't judge people by their looks.

Translation: "Zhenyu, you can't judge a person by appearance."

That means nothing!

Translation: "That proves nothing!"

Hearing this, Xiao Zhenyu gave Lin Yang a scornful smile.

Translation: Upon hearing that, Xiao Zhenyu looked at Lin Yang with a contemptuous smile.

You're Lin Yang, correct? I've heard your name; are you challenging the Jiang family?

Translation: "You're Lin Yang, right? I've heard your name; are you challenging the Jiang Clan?"

You know the Jiang family is just as famous as ours; do you really think you have what it takes?

Translation: "Don't you know the Jiang Clan is a family equal in fame to ours? Do you think you have that strength?"

Lin Yang replied: "What does that have to do with you?"

Translation: Lin Yang countered: "What does that have to do with you?"

With people I don't know well, one mistake can make me act impulsively.

Translation: "With people I'm not familiar with, a slight carelessness makes me act rather impulsively."

For instance, I might slap him hard.

Translation: "For example, I'd slap him big-mouthed."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhenyu crossed his arms and brought his face close to Lin Yang's.

Translation: Upon hearing that, Xiao Zhenyu crossed his arms and brought his face close to Lin Yang's.

Really? I don't think you'd dare; go ahead and try to hit me.

Translation: "Really? I don't believe you'd dare do that; come on, try hitting me."

Seeing Xiao Zhenyu push his face forward, Lin Yang didn't hold back.

Translation: Seeing Xiao Zhenyu thrust his face toward him, Lin Yang was not polite either.

He slapped him, sending Xiao Zhenyu flying into the yard where he crashed and lost consciousness.

Translation: He swung One Slap, and Xiao Zhenyu flew out, crashing into the courtyard and fainted.

Having done that, Lin Yang turned to Xiao Zhenxing and said.

Translation: Having done all that, Lin Yang said to Xiao Zhenxing.

I just swatted a fly; can I still come over for dinner?

Translation: "I swatted a fly; can I still come to your house for a meal?"

Xiao Zhenxing inwardly felt satisfied; this guy finally got his comeuppance.

Translation: Xiao Zhenxing secretly felt pleased; this guy finally got slapped.

He gave a cough and spoke.

Translation: He coughed once and said.

You're the guest our grandfather invited; of course you can stay.

Translation: "You are the guest our elder invited; of course you can."

The two went inside, and everyone looked over.

Translation: The two entered the house, and everyone looked over.

Seeing Lin Yang and the other enter but not Xiao Zhenyu, Xiao Zhenjun frowned and asked.

Translation: Seeing Lin Yang and the two enter, Xiao Zhenjun frowned upon not seeing Xiao Zhenyu and asked.

Where's Zhenyu?

Translation: "Why don't I see Zhenyu?"

Lin Yang chuckled.

Translation: Lin Yang chuckled and said.

Just as I entered, a fly kept buzzing in my ear, so I swatted it away.

Translation: "Just now, as I entered the door, a fly kept buzzing in my ear, and I swatted it away."

When he said that, all the younger Xiao family members rose to their feet.

Translation: As soon as he said that, the younger generation of the Xiao Clan all rose to their feet.

Their eyes were locked on Lin Yang.

Translation: Their gazes were fixed on Lin Yang.

Seeing them look at him, Lin Yang chuckled.

Everyone, is there something?

Xiao Zhenjun stepped forward, his face grim, and said.

You're so imposing, daring to strike someone in our Xiao Clan!

Then let me see how formidable you are!

Hardly had his words fallen when the Xiao Clan elder rebuked.

No troublemaking—Mr. Lin is the honored guest I invited!

Whoever stirs up trouble, don't blame me for enforcing the family law!

Only when the Xiao Clan elder stepped forward did everyone quiet down.

They snorted, glanced at Lin Yang, twitched their lips, as if saying he was lucky.

Then, the Xiao Clan elder in a cyan long robe spoke slowly.

Now that the honored guest has arrived, let's serve the food!

Servants, serve the dishes!

Not long after everyone sat at the table, Xiao Zhenyu was helped in.

Upon entering, Xiao Zhenyu glared at Lin Yang, teeth clenched.

It's all this guy's fault—he made my face swell!

If I go out to pick up women, I'll surely be laughed at!

All he wants now is to smash Lin Yang's face!

But Lin Yang didn't strike first, so I have no excuse.

So after sitting, his gaze stayed fixed on Lin Yang.

Lin Yang, however, didn't care and kept eating the banquet.

After the meal, several people sat on the sofa, and the Xiao Clan elder spoke.

Young friend, at your age you dare to challenge the Jiang Clan—truly admirable courage!

Lin Yang said with a smile.

Shouldn't you say I'm trying to break a stone with an egg?

Hearing this, the Xiao Clan elder laughed loudly and said.

If a young friend dares to declare war, he must have the strength—why would I say he's using an egg against a stone?

Moreover, the person standing behind you is an ancient one.

With an ancient one present, I believe doing this gives us a good chance.

The Xiao Clan elder guessed that Lin Yang was willing to be a pawn of the ancient one.

He accepted the ancient one's aid to take revenge; the ancient one would use him as a pawn to destroy the Jiang Clan.

If the Jiang Clan is destroyed, would it then be their turn?

This is what the Xiao Clan elder wants to know.

After all, they also fear being purged.

Lin Yang, hearing this, thought he was concerned about the ancient one.

He laughed heartily and said.

The ancient one won't interfere in these matters.

That answer made the Xiao Clan elder frown.

Xiao Zhenyu, however, flew into a rage.

Kid, you're taking yourself too seriously.

My grandfather asked you just to know what the ancient one behind you thinks.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have summoned you to our Xiao Clan!

You surely don't really think your strength is great enough that our Xiao Clan needs to curry favor with you, do you?

I tell you, that bit of strength of yours, our Xiao Clan still looks down on it!

Lin Yang, hearing this, said with a half-smile.

Then I don't know what kind of strength your Xiao Clan would approve of.

Xiao Zhenyu gave a cold snort and said.

Show me a demonstration!

Let's see your fancy fists and embroidered kicks!

Lin Yang, hearing this, laughed and asked.

Or how about you try my fancy fists and embroidered kicks?

Hearing this, Xiao Zhenyu gave a cold snort.

Don't think you just defeated me!

I was ambushed by you; if we fought face to face, it's still uncertain who would win!

Seeing Xiao Zhenyu eager to try, looking like he wanted revenge, Lin Yang said with a smile.

Then shall we have a match?
