Chapter 653: 411 Fifth Master vs. Huo Ye teaming up? Ruler-level Demon King (3 updates)
Xie Duo was eyeing his prey like a tiger, and the surrounding onlookers, who wouldnât normally get to see the Jiang Familyâs Number Two Son be put in his place, were all too aware that it wasnât likely to come to actual knife work. They were all just there for the show.
Jiang Yanting had just loosened his cufflinks when he saw, out of the corner of his eye, that the person opposite had already taken off his jacket.
The man was in a short-sleeved shirt, with tight, taut muscles straining the sleeves. He looked plain, but anyone with an eye for it could tell from the way he moved that he was in a completely different league from the previous two.
"Bro, he surely wouldnât dare to hurt you. You donât have to go all out," Jiang Jinsang reminded.
"Mm."
"Itâs tricky for Big Brother with Xie Duo playing this way," Tang Wan frowned deeply, "Theyâre obviously serious, and theyâre all Xie Family relatives who are younger than him. If Big Brother actually hits them, and someone gets hurt, itâs difficult to justify."
"If he just keeps dodging, it will inevitably invite ridicule."
"This is really tough to handle."
Jiang Jinsang nodded; no matter what, Jiang Yanting was definitely going to have to take a hit this time.
And the Xie Familyâs old master also reminded Xie Duo, "Xie Duo, thatâs enough, donât waste too much time."
"Grandpa, I know my limits, you can relax."
At this point, what the Jiang Family members were thinking was:
This guy has no sense of limit at all.
...
Perhaps this cousin from the Xie Family had waited too long, for the moment the two had taken their positions, he threw a punch at Jiang Yanting.
The punch was swift, aiming straight for the face.
"Damn, heyâ it hasnât even started yet," Qi Zeyan frowned.
Jiang Yanting dodged to the side, tightening his fingers slightly as the man threw another punch. There was a chance to hit him, but that punch would have definitely landed squarely on his face. All he could do now was to dodge...
"Move back a bit." Jiang Chengsi was calling the crowd to step back, making space for the two combatants.
While everyone was moving back, there was inevitably some crowding and chaos. With so many people, a stampede could easily happen.
At this moment, someone squeezed out from the crowd...
And put his hand on Jiang Yantingâs back to steady him.
The manâs fist was flying at him, and Jiang Yanting quickly dodged, the punch grazing past his cheek, straight towards the person behind him, only inches away...
The rushing fist narrowly missed, yet the man didnât even blink an eye.
His face was cool and intimidating, dressed all in cool colors, scaring the man into hastily withdrawing his fist.
When sparring, someone jumping in naturally called for a halt.
"Huo Qinqi, you finally made it. I thought you wouldnât catch the wedding," Qi Zeyan said, most excited.
Jiang Yanting turned to look at him, "You supporting my back, he almost landed a punch on my face."
Huo Qinqi stated plainly, "He wouldnât have hit you."
"What if he really did hit me?"
"I wouldâve kicked him away."
"..."
"What part are we at now?" Huo Qinqi, having just arrived, naturally didnât know the current situation and thought he might have missed the procession.
"Huo Qinqi, youâve arrived just in time. That bastard Xie Duo is playing dirty, setting up some sort of literary and martial trials..." Qi Zeyan briefly explained the situation, "We were short on people, so we had to put Yanting in the ring."
"Why didnât you go in?" Jiang Jinsang could understand why he didnât go in; even Jiang Shiyi joined, so why did Qi Zeyan back out.
"They didnât want me to."
Huo Qinqi pinched his arm and didnât say a word, his expression remained unchanged...
But Qi Zeyan clearly felt the deep scorn.
This flesh, so soft and squishy, you could tell there was no strength in it with just a pinch.
Qi Zeyan clenched his teeth, once this wedding is over, Iâm going to get fit, I absolutely must develop a bodybuilderâs muscles.
Huo Qinqi looked at Jiang Yanting, "From now on, let me take over."
When Xie Duo caught sight of Huo Qinqi stepping forward, his head exploded.
Wasnât it said he wouldnât come?
Where did this guy pop up from?
He had relied on today to "avenge and cleanse his honor," and if there was a hidden big shot from the Jiang Family, heâd accept defeat, because he wasnât familiar with Jiang Shiyi. But Huo Qinqi, that was really...
**
By now, the situation below had already reached the second floor, in Shen Zhixianâs room. It was nearly all girls, mostly single and unmarried. They were already excited to see Jiang Shiyi and Jiang Chengsi take action, but then Huo Qinqi arrived...
Knowing about his career and then seeing the tall, robust, and dashing man, they couldnât help but admire him.
One of the bridesmaids even ran to Shen Zhixian to inquire about Huo Qinqiâs situation.
Shen Zhixian just smiled, "You work overseas, and itâs troublesome for him to even leave the country, how can I introduce you two? Itâs not suitable."
"If we get along well, I can return to the country. Maybe you could introduce us later."
"I barely dare to speak with him, how can I introduce you?"
"But heâs very familiar with your husband."
