CHAPTER 27 - THE YANG FAMILY
After the ball ended, everyone dispersed, but the atmosphere lingered heavily in their hearts. News that Hong Shiwen had publicly endorsed Wang Lin spread like wildfire among the major families. However, the families kept their silence, merely cautioning their young ones to avoid crossing paths with Wang Lin.
Yang Yang, who had left the party early, was unaware of this development. He only knew that Wang Lin had taken Hong Ying as an apprentice.
In the Yang family villa, both Yang Yang and Yang Zhen were present, along with their two bodyguards. Also there were Yang Zhong, the head of the Yang family, and other key family members.
A man in his fifties, emanating an air of innate authority, looked sternly at Qian Lao and Zhao Lao and demanded,
"You two owe me an explanation. I hired you to protect my family, not to harm them!"

This man was Yang Yi, Yang Zhong's younger brother. A martial arts enthusiast since childhood, he had reached the realm of a grandmaster at the age of 54 and was the Yang family's ultimate ace in the hole. Even Yang Zhong deferred to him on critical matters. Confronted by Yang Yi's questioning, Qian Lao and Zhao Lao quickly knelt down, stammering,
"We were trying to save him!"
"Oh? Saving someone requires breaking their arms?"
Yang Yi gave them a cold glance.
"Couldn't you have just broken the arms of the opponent instead?"
"It's not that we didn't want to; we couldn't!" Qian Lao wailed, clearly frustrated.
"That young man is also in the realm of a grandmaster. The two of us together couldn't defeat him."
"Moreover, at that moment, he had murderous intent. We had no choice but to break the young master's arm to save his life," Qian Lao added, pleading, "Please, understand the situation, Family Head!"
"Fine, I'll handle this matter myself. I'm curious to see if that young man is as extraordinary as you claim," Yang Yi said disdainfully.
At this point, Yang Yang spoke up: "Father, Uncle, I don't think we should underestimate that young man. I personally witnessed Hong Ying becoming his apprentice at the ball tonight."
Upon hearing Yang Yang's words, everyone gasped and looked at each other in astonishment.
After a long pause, Yang Zhong finally asked, "Is what you're saying true?"
"There's not a shred of falsehood. Representatives from all the major families were there; they all saw it," Yang Yang replied.
He was eager for revenge, but knew that with Wang Lin now backed by the Hong family, they had to tread carefully.

"Sigh, this complicates matters if we want to deal with him," Yang Zhong sighed, his face etched with resignation.
"Perhaps we should just let this go for now."
"After all…"
"Forget letting it go! Big brother, I'll handle this personally. I'll take care of that young man discreetly. Even the Hong family can't touch us without evidence," Yang Yi interrupted, his voice tinged with fury.
"No one crosses the Yang family, not even the Hong family!"
"Little brother, you really need to control your temper; it's bound to get us into trouble sooner or later," Yang Zhong advised earnestly, hoping to dissuade him from acting impulsively.
Yang Yi, however, ignored him and abruptly left the hall.
Watching his brother's retreating figure, Yang Zhong sighed deeply and declared,
"From this day forward, no one from the Yang family is to trouble that young man. If you do, you'll bear the consequences yourself."
With that, Yang Zhong also turned and left, leaving the rest of the family looking stunned. They couldn't fathom why the mighty Yang family would fear an obscure young man.
