Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1393: Chapter 1392: Utterly Irresponsible

In truth, Su Liang was also being insatiable. Qinghe Academy had clearly declared their support for Su Yang, and even the intervention of Young Master Qee was futile; this had led to the involvement of the Martial Champion.

The Martial Champion was very much aware of the current situation. With so many people from Qinghe Academy present, they would not allow Su Yang to be at a disadvantage. Qinghe Academy’s stance was crystal clear; they fully supported Su Yang, even to the point of confronting Young Master Qee if necessary.

As Young Master Qee represented the Martial Champion, the fact that Qinghe Academy was willing to confront him indicated that they were also ready to take on the Martial Champion.

Under such circumstances, the Martial Champion could only settle for the next best option. If he could not allow Su Yang to be wronged, then he would have to let Su Ze be wronged instead, hence the decision to have Su Yang fight Su Ze.

In doing so, at least the strength of the Su Family of Yanbei could be preserved. Furthermore, it was only to determine the winner, not life or death; Su Ze just needed to survive. At this point, did they really still expect to come out on top?

Yet, Su Liang, still insatiable and greedy as a snake trying to swallow an elephant, actually disagreed with the decision and wanted to take advantage of the situation. Can’t you see the current state of affairs? And you still want to gain the upper hand?

This finally angered the Martial Champion, and naturally, he wouldn’t bother with this matter any longer.

On hearing his father’s words, Young Master Qee couldn’t help but sigh. He realized that the people of the Su Family were simply impossible to work with. Moreover, with Qinghe Academy present and so adamantly opposed, if he continued to press on, it would damage his family’s interests.

Given the situation, he decided to take this opportunity to step down and would no longer get involved in this affair.

”Let’s go, eighth brother,” Young Master Qee calmly said.

”Young Master Qee!” Su Liang called out anxiously.

But it was as though Young Master Qee heard nothing, leaving directly with Old Zhang the Eighth.

At this, Su Liang was utterly dumbfounded. Without the support of the Zhang Family, their troubles would extend far beyond Su Ze being injured!

Yet Su Yang wore a relaxed smile, leisurely looking at Su Ze: ”Young Master Su, shall we continue? We haven’t finished just now, haven’t you said you wanted to wipe out everyone within Shen Family Courtyard? Now is your chance, let’s continue the fight!”

Su Ze’s face was pale; indeed, he had summoned Su Liang and the others with the intention of massacring everyone here. But with so many from Qinghe Academy watching like tigers eyeing their prey, how could Su Liang and the others protect themselves, much less help them?

If the fight were to continue, it was uncertain how many of the Su Family of Yanbei would make it out alive.

Su Liang looked at Su Ze, and in fact, many from the Su Family were looking at Su Ze.

They did not speak, but their intentions were clear; they hoped Su Ze would think of the bigger picture and fight this battle with Su Yang. Even if he had to take a loss, it would at the very least preserve the majority of the Su Family’s forces, allowing them a chance to retaliate in the future.

Seeing the looks in everyone’s eyes, Su Ze felt irritated; he, of course, finally understood what everyone was implying. But he was really unhappy; why should he be the one to take the loss?

Seeing that Su Ze had no intention of speaking up, Su Liang could no longer hold back and said in a low voice: ”Su Ze, why don’t you fight this one with Su Yang?”

”Why should I!” Su Ze retorted directly: ”You all know that I’m no match for him, yet you want me to fight him? Isn’t this deliberately setting me up?”

Su Liang was also angry: ”You are the son of the Family Head, and one of the Su Family heirs, why do you lack such responsibility? Tonight’s matter was initiated by you persistently, to deal with Su Yang. Since you started this, who else but you should bear the consequences?”

”I...” Su Ze was ready to argue back, his neck stiffened in defiance.

Su Liang cut him off: ”You either take this fight, or I will return and report to the Council of Elders to revoke your status as a family heir!”

Su Ze immediately panicked, not doubting in the least that Su Liang had the ability to do so. After all, Su Liang was one of the top powerhouses in the Su Family.

However, he still felt utterly unwilling to be beaten up by Su Yang.

Taking several deep breaths, Su Ze finally clenched his teeth and made up his mind.

He knew all too well that he didn’t have a choice; he had to fight this battle with Su Yang.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Su Ze took a slow step forward, watching Su Yang with cold eyes, ”Fine, Su Yang, I’ll fight you!”

His words were icy to the extreme, and his eyes were filled with a venomous light; his heart was full of fury.

”You want to fight me?” Su Yang sneered, ”What makes you think you can fight me?”

”You...” Su Ze flew into a rage, ”What do you mean by that?”

Su Liang was also infuriated, speaking sternly, ”This is Mr. Zhang’s intention...”

”Shut your mouth!” Su Yang cut him off directly, ”When he mentioned it just now, you all disagreed. Now that he’s gone and out of the matter, yet you still say it’s Old Master Zhang’s intention? Fine then, go find Old Master Zhang and let him say it again. As long as he speaks up, I’ll agree. How about it?”

Su Liang was immediately bewildered, knowing very well that if he went to find the Martial Champion again, the man would certainly not give him face.

The situation was now troublesome; the Martial Champion had indeed been angry just before, sending Old Zhang the Seventh and Old Zhang the Eighth back, indicating that they would no longer get involved in this matter.

At this moment, Su Yang insisted that the Martial Champion was no longer intervening; if that was true, they were indeed doomed.

Could it be that they really had to fight Su Yang?

Just then, the Academy Head said softly, ”Su Yang, since Mr. Zhang has already spoken, let’s follow what Mr. Zhang said.”

Su Liang breathed a sigh of relief; he was genuinely worried Su Yang would go back on his word. If that happened, the Su Family of Yanbei really wouldn’t be able to bear it!

”Alright!” Su Yang nodded, ”We can go by what Mr. Zhang said, but I have a condition.”

Su Liang was angry, ”When Mr. Zhang spoke, there were no conditions!”

”Then why didn’t you do as Mr. Zhang asked you to when he told you to do it?” Su Yang retorted.

”You...” Su Liang was at a loss for words.

The Academy Head spoke in a soft voice, ”It’s fair for you to have conditions. Go on, say it.”

”Actually, tonight, I really did want to kill Su Ze. But since Old Master Zhang said to only determine the victor, not life or death, I’ll spare his life.” Su Yang said, ”However, if he loses, he must apologize to me. How about that?”

”In your dreams!” Su Ze shouted loudly in defiance.

Su Yang slapped his hand on the table next to him and cursed, ”Fight!”

The crowd immediately surged forward with a menacing momentum, and Su Liang looked towards the Academy Head, who showed no intention of stopping them. From his stance, he was fully supporting Su Yang.

It seemed as though a fight was about to break out at the scene, and Su Liang urged in haste, ”Don’t be impulsive, don’t be impulsive. Su Yang, we will do as you say!”

”Why should I!” Su Ze was furious, ”Why should I apologize to him?”
