Hearing the roar of Long Ao and seeing the white-haired old man appearing in the sky, Yue Minzhi already knew that the other party was the fad National Guardian Heavenly General of the Empire, Long Ao.
Even knowing that the other party was a Dan Realm Expert, Yue Minzhi nonetheless felt not the slightest panic at this mont.
Gently patting the Sky Weasel Dragon in his arms, he walked forward with neither humility nor arrogance, and bowed to Long Ao, "Respect to the old general. I am Yue Minzhi."
"A pretentious youngster, just like your incompetent father, rely having an attractive appearance," Long Ao glanced at Yue Minzhi. In his earlier years, Yue Nian had been sowhat acquainted with him; Yue Nian was skilled in chess and had once brought his children to visit the General Mansion.
Having not seen him for a few years, Yue Minzhi had grown up to be a fine young man. Compared to his charming and dashing father, he conceded nothing. However, between his brows, he lacked the carefree elegance of Yue Nian.
"I heard that my girl has been following you around, and not only do you not appreciate it, but you also insult her on multiple occasions, is that true?" Long Ao was also a man of straightforward character; before joining the military, he was a bandit.
Even though he later joined the army and was made a general, he couldn’t change so of his rough habits; the older he got, the more temperantal he beca, his speech inevitably carrying a rogue’s air.
In his view, all matters of background and social status were nonsense. When he was Yue Minzhi’s age, he was still hiding in the mountains as an outlaw.
But one thing was certain: the people of Long Family could not tolerate insults from others.
Yue Minzhi was silent for a long while, as if making up his mind, "Since General Long has co, as the junior, it is only proper for to recount the facts. After my father went missing, I’ve pondered repeatedly — a man should first achieve distinction before dwelling on romantic relations. The marriage agreent between Miss Long Rui and myself was rely a playful remark made between our grandfathers and should not be taken seriously. I dare to ask the elder to dissolve the marriage contract between and Miss Long Rui."
These few sentences spoken by Yue Minzhi, though difficult, were resolute and without the slightest hesitation.
He might not truly believe that Long Rui would feel spurned love and fra him by sending that Inner Armor.
Yet, this matter made him see that within the Long Family, there surely were people with intentions to harm him, and even potentially the Duke Mansion.
The person who tried to trap him today, would surely resort to even more vicious ans in the future, perhaps even endangering the lives of his family.
These risks were sothing that Yue Minzhi simply could not afford to take.
"Presumptuous," Long Ao was enraged by the words of Yue Minzhi.
He flew into a great rage, and Floating Light Silhouette instantly expanded several tis; relentless pressure descended from the sky, pressing down on Yue Minzhi.
The sky changed color, and the sun, moon, and stars silently vanished.
Just a fraction of Dan Realm’s power, and the might was already so astonishing.
Like a great mountain, like a teorite falling from the sky, it heavily pressed onto the chest of Yue Minzhi.
This proud and noble young man instantly felt his spine like a bow being drawn, pinned down by the imnse Dark Power radiating from Long Ao’s Floating Light Silhouette, rendering him immobile.
"As a younger... I boldly ask the elder to dissolve the marriage contract," Yue Minzhi, having expended a great deal of Dark Power in today’s Dragon Pulling Test and now having taken a heavy blow, felt like a withered leaf of winter, trembling severly in the vast training field.
"Impudent boy, still being presumptuous, do you believe that this old man..." Long Ao was uncontrollably furious, the light of Floating Light Silhouette intensely flared, prepared to strike again.
"Shaless old fool, exploiting seniority, believe it or not, once you step out of this place, the plaque of the National Guardian General Residence will be smashed to smithereens," interjected a clear young voice, quite inappropriately reaching Long Ao’s ears.
Long Ao glared furiously, and noticed in the spectator stands, soone gesturing a middle finger at him.
Although he did not know what that gesture ant, the person’s facial expressions and attitude clearly mocked him and the General Mansion.
"Huahua, do not be rude," Yue Minzhi saw his younger sister provoking Long Ao and beca anxious. His spine, which had already been bent, forcefully straightened up a bit.
Seeing this, Long Ao snorted. Within the silhouette of light, a surge of mighty Dark Power split into two; a smaller part subdued Yue Minzhi.
The other part, like a hurricane, charged towards Yue Jinghua.
Yue Jinghua had been quietly observing from the sidelines and realized that Long Ao’s Floating Light Silhouette’s power resembled the legendary Divine Artifact she had encountered in the Opportunity Transmission Array before, the Nine-layered Gravity Ring, which used Dark Power to bind a person’s limbs.
Having understood the severity of this Dark Power, Yue Jinghua had beco more vigilant.
Her feet fluttered like a butterfly shuttle, leaving behind a series of footprints. The Small Cloud Trace Steps were exquisite and unmatched, allowing her to dodge Long Ao’s attack.
"Oh! Excellent Step Technique," Long Ao narrowed his eyes; his sight was exceptional. With just one glance, he realized the exceptional skill involved in Yue Jinghua’s step technique, which was unlike the common moves seen on the continent.
He was naturally irritable but was a fanatic when it ca to Dark Martial Arts.
At that mont, seeing the Small Cloud Trace Steps, he felt a competitive urge and continued to unleash his Dark Power, attacking Yue Jinghua repeatedly.
"General Long, please spare my younger sister; Huahua is young and naive. Please do not direct your anger at her," Yue Minzhi was anxious, and despite being suppressed by Long Ao, he could only manage to move his foot with great difficulty after roaring in anger.
This movent was extrely strenuous; the Dan Realm Dark Power pressing against Yue Minzhi’s chest "bang," crushed his rib bones.
Yue Minzhi, who had been poisoned before, already had unstable blood and Qi. Under this strike, he vomited a mouthful of fresh blood.
"Big brother," Yue Jinghua saw this, and her feet involuntarily faltered, falling into the midst of Long Ao’s Dark Power.
In an instant, Yue Jinghua felt as though she had fallen into a muddy marsh, struggling to move.
"Another from the Yue Family? Huahua?" Although Long Ao was old, his mory was not poor. After thinking for a mont, he rembered the ti Yue Nian brought two children, one big and one small, to the General Mansion to scrounge food and drink.
The smaller one, who had just learned to crawl, knew how to climb onto his lap and had pulled away a big handful of his beard.
"Brother Long, among my pair of children, Minzhi is a boy and can take care of himself. But my daughter, who has been spoiled by since she was young, if I am no longer around one day, please take care of her. She has a difficult fate," he recalled that ti when "Little Yue Jinghua" giggling while pulling out a bunch of his beard.
Yue Nian showed his sincerity with a solemn bow.
Yue Jinghua?! So, it’s a girl.
Recalling the little girl around his granddaughter’s age, a softness crept into Long Ao’s heart.
"So it’s you, little one. Well done, Yue Nian, raising a pair of good children. Hmph, both of you, one shaming a girl earlier and the other shaming the General Mansion later. If I don’t discipline you today, where would the General Mansion’s dignity reside. Little Yue child, I see you are young and ignorant, and I won’t bother with you. But, Yue boy, you’ve repeatedly disappointed my girl’s feelings, and today, breaking just one of your ribs is barely soothing my anger. You can cancel the marriage, but leave behind your cultivation," Long Ao said, then his silhouette swept forward, his hands like eagle claws, aid directly at Yue Minzhi’s chest, targeting his Dantian.
