"Fight? Of course, we'll fight. A One Vein Seventh Layer opponent is just what I wanted. I was worried he'd be a pushover like his brother. That would've been no fun at all," Ye Tian said with a smile.
Qin Lin didn't retort. He was holding back. 'Once the fight starts, I have to kill this detestable brat. Anyone who tries to steal my woman must die. Ye Feifei can only belong to me.'
Ye Tian and Qin Lin then walked out of the Delicious Pavilion. "Qin Lin, where do you want to fight? Surely not here on the main street? There are a lot of people here. I don't want our fight to harm any innocents."
"Heh, you have the ability to harm innocents? Did I hear that right? Fine, if you don't want to fight on the main street, so be it. There's a huge plaza not far from here where there usually aren't many people. We can consider this fulfilling your last wish before you die!" Qin Lin said to Ye Tian with disdain.
Hearing Qin Lin's words, Ye Feifei flared up in anger. "Qin Lin, don't go too far! If anything happens to my Brother Tian, I'll kill you for sure!"
When Qin Lin heard Ye Feifei say this, his heart twisted as if stabbed by a knife. 'This is the woman I love! How could she treat me like this?'
"Feifei, it's okay. We don't know who will have the last laugh yet. Have you forgotten what happened that night?" Ye Tian said to Ye Feifei with a faint smile.
Recalling the mysterious event that had occurred with Ye Tian that night, a wave of fear washed over Ye Feifei. However, she wasn't worried about Ye Tian, but rather about Qin Lin.
'If Ye Tian kills Qin Lin, the Ye Family and the Qin Family will undoubtedly be at each other's throats. Lisha City will be in for some excitement then.'
"Brother Tian, remember to spare his life. Otherwise, things will get very troublesome. The family competition is tomorrow, and I don't want any more chaos," Ye Feifei said.
Ye Tian nodded. "I understand! Don't you worry about me!"
Qin Lin shot Ye Tian a glare. If looks could kill, Ye Tian would have already been torn to shreds by him.
Without another word, he strode quickly toward the giant plaza. 'Killing Ye Tian as soon as possible' was the foremost thought in Qin Lin's mind.
News of the Qin Family's eldest young master facing off against Ye Tian spread like wildfire through Lisha City. Many people who wanted to watch the spectacle followed along. The matter even alarmed the upper echelons of the Ye Family, including Ye Weitian.
Initially, Patriarch Qin, Qin Wushuang, had no intention of watching this spectacle. In his eyes, Ye Tian was no match for Qin Lin at all. His son was a genius in Lisha City, one of the top experts of the younger generation.
However, his beloved daughter, Qin Xiaowan, wanted to see how her big brother would teach a lesson to Ye Tian, the one who had injured her second brother. She also wanted to see for herself just how outstanding this Ye Tian was to make Ye Feifei lower herself to be with him.
After all, her big brother had always admired Ye Feifei, and she herself often tried to put in a good word for him. But Ye Feifei just wasn't interested in her brother, leaving her feeling helpless.
"Feifei is with Ye Tian? And Qin Lin is going to fight him?" Ye Weitian asked a family disciple who was reporting the news.
"Reporting to the Patriarch, it's absolutely true. The news is causing a huge stir in Lisha City. Ye Tian actually defeated the Qin Family's second young master, Qin Li, in a single move."
"That Qin Li is at the One Vein Sixth Layer, while Ye Tian is only at the One Vein Fourth Layer. That's precisely why it's attracting so many onlookers. This matter still requires the Patriarch's decision," the family disciple said.
"Ye Tian is a rare talent for our Ye Family. I absolutely cannot allow him to be harmed. Everyone, come with me to take a look. I'm sure that fellow Qin Wushuang will also go to watch the show," Ye Weitian said.
Soon, Ye Tian and Qin Lin arrived at a massive plaza several hundred meters in diameter. This plaza was used for Lisha City's major festivals or important events, so it was usually empty.
Today, however, Ye Tian and Qin Lin's fight had drawn a sea of people, turning the place upside down. But everyone consciously left the large open space in the middle for the two of them.
Ye Tian and Qin Lin stood facing each other. This time, Ye Tian held the Black Glaze Sword. 'I really want to see how different this Black Glaze Sword feels compared to the Fine Steel Sword when I use it,' he thought.
"Ye Tian, you injured my brother today. As his older brother, it's only right that I seek justice for him. However, I am at the One Vein Seventh Layer, while you are only at the One Vein Fourth Layer. Beating you would be a bit dishonorable."
"But you were able to defeat my brother, who is at the One Vein Sixth Layer, which proves you are very strong. I believe everyone here wants to see if I can defeat him, right?!" Qin Lin then shouted to the crowd.
Everyone knew what Qin Lin meant by saying this. This way, he wouldn't earn a reputation for being a bully who preys on the weak. If he ended up killing Ye Tian, it would be difficult for the Ye Family to retaliate against the Qin Family.
"Then I, Ye Tian, will fight you today. It is my honor to face the Qin Family's number one expert. Even if you were to accidentally kill me, I would have no regrets. But if I happen to accidentally injure you, don't you dare say I was ruthless!" Ye Tian retorted.
Qin Lin glanced at Ye Tian and laughed. "Since you've said that, let's begin! I'm really curious to see how you defeated my brother in a single blow."
As his voice fell, a silver-white longsword appeared in Qin Lin's hand. It was clearly no ordinary weapon and was likely a sword of the Spiritual Artifact Level. Its power was far greater than that of a Fine Steel Sword.
"Father, do you think Big Brother will kill that kid in one move?" Qin Xiaowan asked quietly, standing beside Qin Wushuang.
"It's hard to say. Although the aura the boy is showing is only that of the One Vein Fourth Layer, I have a feeling he's at least at the Sixth Layer. If his Martial Skills are strong, it will still take your big brother a little time to defeat him," Qin Wushuang said.
The old are the most cunning. Although Qin Wushuang couldn't see Ye Tian's true strength, he could guess seventy to eighty percent of it. No wonder he was one of the three great Patriarchs of Lisha City.
Qin Xiaowan, however, stared at Ye Tian without blinking. She was extremely doubtful. 'Is this Ye Tian really as powerful as Father says?' When she looked into Ye Tian's eyes, her heart suddenly stirred, and an indescribable, strange feeling welled up inside her.
It was a feeling she hadn't had in a long time, yet it was also a very special one. She couldn't put it into words and was very confused.
Ye Weitian had also made his way to Ye Feifei's side. Looking at Ye Tian, he asked her, "Fei'er, did Ye Tian really defeat Qin Li in a single move? Did you get a clear look at the technique he used?"
"It's absolutely true. Brother Tian didn't use any other Martial Skill. It was the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique you gave me, Fei'er. His Fourth Form has already reached the Perfect Realm!" Ye Feifei said with a very serious expression, though her eyes were also fixed on Ye Tian.
And at that moment, the fight between Ye Tian and Qin Lin officially began...
