Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 466: Chapter 465 Test

Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng watched Su Yang with a cold gaze, ”So stubborn? You do know that with just a little more force, you could spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair!”

”You can kill me, but you can’t change what I believe in my heart!” Su Yang shouted loudly.

”Do you truly believe I wouldn’t dare kill you?” the voice of the Sword Saint turned exceptionally frosty.

Su Yang responded coldly, ”Since I dared to fight you, I was prepared to die here!”

”Do you not feel that such a death would be too unworthy?” the Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng said coldly.

”To me, there’s no question of worthiness, only what one should or should not do!” Su Yang said coldly, ”Do you think dying in a mountain cave would make it worthier? Or dying in Beiguan Town, would that make it worthy?”

”Hahaha...” Ye Jiansheng suddenly looked up and laughed, his longsword floating into the air, returning to the sword box on his back.

Su Yang was taken aback; he had been ready to meet Ye Jiansheng’s fatal blow. What did it mean for Ye Jiansheng to withdraw his sword now?

”What a statement, what one should or should not do!” Ye Jiansheng spoke out loud, ”Su Yang, there have not been many people Ye Mou has admired in his life. But you can count yourself as one of them now!”

”What do you mean?” Su Yang frowned and asked.

”It means that the marriage arrangement between the Su Family and Ye Family can be called off!” Ye Jiansheng said with a smile.

”What?” Su Yang was even more astonished. Ye Jiansheng had been about to kill him just to protect the marriage arrangement between Ye Wantong and Su Tianyu. How could he suddenly change his mind and call off the marriage?

”No need to be so shocked!” Ye Jiansheng said, ”Although Su Tianyu of the Su Family could not come, the Su Family has many other people. But in the end, no one from the Su Family came, only sending a distant cousin instead, which equates to an insult to my Ye Family. Although the Ye Family may not be as great as the Su Family of Yanbei, we are not to be disrespected. I only have this one daughter; as long as Ye Mou is alive, no one can humiliate her like this!”

Su Yang was dumbfounded, ”You never intended to let Ye Wantong marry into the Su Family from the start? Then... what was all that talk just now for?”

”It was just a test,” Ye Jiansheng said with a smile. ”And the result truly surprised me!”

”A test?” Su Yang frowned. ”What did you test me for? If you didn’t want your daughter to marry into the Su Family, you could have dealt with it yourself; why test me?”

”Hahaha...” Ye Jiansheng laughed and said, ”Since my daughter took a liking to you, of course I had to see if you were the man worthy of her lifelong trust!”

”...” Su Yang was at a loss for words again. ”Hey, I made it clear earlier; your daughter and I are just friends!”

”That’s now, but what about later?” Ye Jiansheng said with a smile.

”It will be the same in the future!” Su Yang said.

”The emotions between a man and a woman are difficult to predict,” Ye Jiansheng shook his head and said, ”Maybe in your heart, you just consider my daughter a friend. Or perhaps, with time, her feelings for you might fade. However, no matter what, since my daughter has taken a liking to you, it means there is a possibility for you two to come together. If there’s that possibility, of course I have to see if you are worthy of her trust!”

Su Yang was completely speechless. He waved his hand and said, ”Let’s forget about me, let’s talk about you. If you disagreed with your daughter marrying into the Su Family, why did you arrange this marriage in the first place?”

”This marriage was arranged a long time ago,” Ye Jiansheng explained. ”At that time, the father of Su Tianyu did not hold such a high status in the Su Family. Some time ago, he sent a letter mentioning this marriage. I came back this time for the marriage, but I did not expect that after their status rose, they would become so arrogant. After Chen Benhao arrived here, this marriage had become impossible!”

Su Yang suddenly realized. So that was the situation!

In fact, Su Yang himself was originally very astonished. With the character of Ye Jiansheng, a Sword Saint, how could he tolerate his daughter suffering such humiliation?

When Ye Jiansheng was testing him just now, the words he spoke made Su Yang doubt for a moment whether he had misjudged the man.

But now it seemed, he had indeed not misjudged. Ye Jiansheng truly deserved the title of ”Sword Saint.” Whether it was in terms of strength or character!

”With this marriage lost, what about the matter of the Law Enforcers?” Su Yang asked.

Ye Jiansheng declared loudly, ”Even if Ye Mou never enters the Heavenly Palace in my lifetime, I will not allow my daughter to suffer the slightest grievance!”

Su Yang couldn’t help but sigh. The Heavenly Palace, that was the dream of so many Terrestrial Immortals. And yet Ye Jiansheng was willing to give up that opportunity, just to protect his only daughter. Such magnanimity, indeed, there were few in this world who could match it!

”Of course, if you can cultivate to the level of the Heavenly List, then I can also enter the Heavenly Palace!” Ye Jiansheng suddenly said with a smile.

”What does that have to do with me?” Su Yang asked, eyes wide, wondering why it was being brought back to him.

”If you reach the level of the Heavenly List, you can help protect the Ye Family, then I can rest assured and enter the Heavenly Palace!” Ye Jiansheng said with a laugh.

”I’ve made it clear just now, I only see Ye Wantong as a friend, there is no possibility between us!” Su Yang said.

”Right!” Ye Jiansheng laughed, ”That’s why I needed to test you, to see if you would still risk your life for a friend when your life is threatened. And it turns out you truly would risk your life for a friend. Since that’s the case, no matter how far you and Wan Tong go, you will help Wan Tong, am I right?”

”...” Su Yang was dumbfounded, so the true purpose of Ye Jiansheng’s test was this? This was something Su Yang had not anticipated at all!

After a long silence, Su Yang finally angrily threw out three words: ”Old fox!”

”Hahaha...” Ye Jiansheng laughed loudly again, ”You’re still too young!”

Su Yang was speechless, this was the first time he found out that Ye Jiansheng could also be cunning.

”So, you came out today mainly to find Chen Benhao?” Su Yang said, ”And since I drove Chen Benhao away, you came to test me instead?”

”Correct!” Ye Jiansheng nodded.

”How do you plan to explain to him?” Su Yang asked curiously.

”Explain what?” Ye Jiansheng said, ”Break both his legs, carry him back, and the Su Family will naturally understand what I mean!”

”...” Su Yang felt a wave of embarrassment. So, coming here tonight, he had actually saved Chen Benhao, didn’t he?

And moreover, upon careful thought, hadn’t he seemed to play the villain in this matter?

Ye Jiansheng wanted to call off the marriage, and it should have been him who offended the people of the Su Family.

Instead, Su Yang jumped out and fought with Chen Benhao, blocking the marriage and saving Ye Jiansheng the trouble. Instead, it seemed that Su Yang might bear the grudge of the Su Family of Yanbei because of this!
