Chapter 1199: Chapter 1198: Jealousy? As It Should Be

The clan leaders glanced at the two elders, their expressions slightly darkened.

It must be said, the aura emanating from the two elders, Black Elder and White Elder, was quite impressive; they looked like remarkable figures.

However, last night, the two of them joined forces and still failed to stop Yang Chen and Yang Chenxi, which was a bit hard for many to believe.

If they couldn’t even stop Yang Chen and Yang Chenxi, how strong can their abilities truly be?

The clan leaders felt that many elders in their own families could achieve that; moreover, these elders followed Second Young Master Yun of the Yun family.

Now with only these two elders from the Yun family stepping forward, many felt the Yun family might be taking advantage of them.

Second Young Master Yun looked at the elders, smiled, and said, "Don’t underestimate these two elders from my family. They are elders from the cabinet that guards our family’s lineage, their status is comparable to the guardian elders in your families. Additionally, they are Half-Step Divine Realm experts. It’s just that under those circumstances yesterday, it wasn’t convenient to go all-out, so they didn’t fully stop Yang Chen and Yang Chenxi. If they had really made a move, those two would have been no match for the elders from our Yun family!"

"Half-Step Divine Realm!" Upon hearing these words, everyone drew in a sharp breath.

If these are Half-Step Divine Realm experts, then they indeed hold significant weight!

One Half-Step Divine Realm expert would be equal to the elder-level experts they brought, not to mention two.

With these two Half-Step Divine Realm experts present, their hearts were considerably more assured.

"That’s excellent! That’s excellent!"

"So the two elders are indeed Half-Step Divine Realm experts, my respects!"

"Please quickly invite them inside to rest!"

"Yes, yes, let’s go inside and talk, it’s quite hot outside."

...

Everyone’s attitude changed dramatically and rapidly, astonishingly fast.

However, these clan leaders maintained their composure, acting as if nothing had happened, each with a friendly smile, appearing extremely cordial.

Second Young Master Yun was accustomed to such situations, and he followed everyone into the castle.

...

Ten o’clock.

A convoy of sleek Mercedes vans slowly drove into Ju Xin City, finally stopping in front of the castle.

Everyone’s gaze turned in that direction.

The nine families of Ancheng had already arrived, and even the Xiang family and Zhang family, who normally wouldn’t participate, were there. Why was there another group?

At this moment, the car stopped, the door of the central car opened, and it was Yang Chen who stepped out!

Seeing Yang Chen, many people’s expressions turned to one of gritted teeth.

They finally understood that the person who arrived was indeed Yang Chen! Although they were aware of the events of yesterday, as well as the Wu family’s agreement with Yang Chen, they hadn’t expected Yang Chen to actually come, to dare to come!

Yang Chen got out of the car and surveyed the crowd; there were many people both inside the castle, outside at the pavilion, and around the tent area, all of whom were looking in his direction.

"Such a crowd," Yang Chen smiled and said.

A single remark stirred up a thousand waves.

"Is that Yang Chen?"

"Is he the one who turned Wu the Third and Wu Yihan against them?"

"I heard he defeated the Wu family elder, who is a Martial Arts Realm expert!"

"Not only that, last night, he was evenly matched in a duel with a Martial Arts Grandmaster!"

"Incredible! Are you saying he’s a Martial Arts Grandmaster himself?"

"It seems likely, and perhaps even stronger than Second Young Master Yun!"

"Really? Second Young Master Yun is a talent seen once in a millennium, the youngest Martial Arts Grandmaster, who could compare to him!"

"But, tell me, is Yang Chen younger, or is Second Young Master Yun younger?"

"Well..."

They could not discern, as Second Young Master Yun looked about twenty years old too, whereas Yang Chen, due to his missions and battles on the frontlines, appeared more seasoned and rugged, like a man of steel rather than a delicate weakling.

However, insiders knew.

"Second Young Master Yun has secrets to maintain his youthful appearance, but he is indeed in his thirties. According to investigations, Yang Chen is only in his twenties. So, who do you think is the true prodigy?"

The crowd fell silent, their glances towards Yang Chen transformed.

Still, many refused to believe. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

After all, seeing is believing, not just what one heard.

To some, Yang Chen seemed too young; how strong could he really be? Even if he started training in the womb, how high could his cultivation be?

They refused to believe such a young Yang Chen was already a Martial Arts Grandmaster, capable of defeating Second Young Master Yun and overcoming elder challenges!

In their view, many stories were exaggerated rumors.

After Yang Chen stepped out, following him was Yang Chenxi, dressed in white.

However, today she wasn’t wearing a dress but wide-legged trousers, paired with a white long shirt. This was styled by Wei Xueqing to be both aesthetically pleasing and action-friendly.

It was Wei Xueqing who forcibly took off the jeans Yang Chenxi had on and replaced them with this.

As usual, Yang Chenxi wore a scarf over her face, but this time it was a thinner scarf, revealing the facial contours much more than the previous black veil.

As she got out of the car, many sitting on benches stood up in unison.

All of them were men, their eyes sparkling.

"So beautiful!"

"Is that Left Envoy Yang?"

"Today’s white outfit looks stunning on her!"

"I didn’t realize she had such a great figure!"

"Good heavens! Look at the thin white scarf on her face, you can see her features!"

"Such exquisite features!"

"Incredibly beautiful!"

"How can anyone be such a beauty!"

"No wonder, the first time I saw Left Envoy Yang, I felt I’d never find true love again; turns out, she’s truly that beautiful!"

"Why is she with Yang Chen?"

"My goddess! Why is this happening?"

"Haven’t you all heard? Left Envoy Yang was taken by Yang Chen just yesterday! Even two Martial Arts Grandmasters couldn’t stop him!"

"Why did he take my goddess?"

"This is outrageous!"

"I want to kill him!"

"Even if he is a Martial Arts Grandmaster, how could all of us possibly fear him?"

"If he dares to come, let’s ensure he can’t leave!"

"Yes! Let’s kill him!"

...

Suddenly, a palpable killing intent surged from all around, directed at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen was startled by the murderous aura, turning sullen, "What’s going on?"

Yang Chenxi stood beside Yang Chen, glancing at the angry men, and chuckled, "It’s probably because of me."

"Tsk tsk! How wonderful, it’s envy and hatred!" Yang Chen seemed quite pleased, "This is normal; having such a beautiful wife means their jealousy is expected, well-deserved."

According to Yang Chen, this all seemed a matter of course.

Little did he know, these people wished they could kill him.
