"Hey! Who are these people? Aren't they the guests invited by the young master? Why have they come to our servants' area?" Upon seeing Wang Long and his group, several Household Guards from the Yu Family spoke with a sarcastic tone.
"Hmph!" Wang Long and his companions were already accustomed to such scenes. He wouldn't stoop to the level of these Household Guards, and Old Xu and the others knew that their main purpose for coming this time was to fight for a chance at survival for their village. Under Wang Long's reminder, they all adopted an attitude of avoiding trouble.
"What? Ignoring us?" Little did they know that this time they were provoked into being aggressive. Seeing Wang Long's group retreat, instead of backing off, several of them directly blocked their path, looking for trouble. "I say, you lot have been eating and drinking from the Yu Family for so many days, yet you haven't done a single thing for us. How can you be so thick-skinned? Don't you feel even a bit embarrassed?"
"This matter should be discussed with your young master, not with you lot here," Wang Long replied with a slight smile, already realizing that they were trying to escalate the situation. Since that was the case, Wang Long wasn't one to shy away from confrontation. In fact, having reached this point where further concessions would be useless, it was better to resolve everything in one go and shut these people up!
"You've got some nerve! Do you think our players only have Yu Bing to rely on? This gentleman is our instructor and was once an elder of the Slayer of Mount Yuesong! How many experts in Nanhua City have fallen under his Fire Essence Sunstrike? And they've all been thoroughly defeated!" A small Household Guard nearby said arrogantly.
"I see..." Wang Long chuckled. "So what does that have to do with me?"
"Damn it, stop playing dumb," the Household Guard snapped back, caught off guard. "Today our boss is going to teach you a lesson so you know that we can still protect the Yu Family without you. Even if there are some internal conflicts, we don't need outsiders meddling! Do you understand now?"
"Haha, I think the most impressive one isn't your boss but you! With your current attitude, who would still regard your boss as significant? Why not let Your Excellency come down and have a match instead?" Wang Long countered sharply.
"Uh, well..." Generally speaking, those who talked big often lacked real skill. Although they didn't believe Wang Long's strength was as formidable as rumored—otherwise he would have shown his prowess by now—he still had some capability. Their young master wasn't blind; letting him take the stage would only bring shame.
However, since they were the ones provoking him now, he couldn't bring himself to show weakness. He could only cast a pleading glance towards their boss.
Yu Feng shot him a cold glare and calmly said, "This might not be very appropriate. You should know I never take advantage of my opponents. If you fight him, regardless of victory or defeat, it will deplete your strength. Moreover, I've already challenged you first; seeking out one of my subordinates is rather disrespectful."
Wang Long smiled and said, "Who said I wanted to settle things with your subordinate? I just thought it would be a nice appetizer before our match. Ying Sang, why don't you give this Household Guard a lesson?"
"Sure thing!" Ying Sang was originally just a top expert from Alin Village and hardly made a name for himself in Nanhua City. However, throughout this journey with Wang Long, he had learned a lot and truly taught everything he knew without holding back as promised back in Alin Village. Ying Sang himself was quite talented; otherwise, he wouldn't have become one of the notable experts in his village at such a young age just by relying on half-baked Martial Arts skills.
Now is a great time to assess her achievements during this period!
Moreover, this time the opponent has no excuses to back out. If they retreat again, they would have no face to challenge Wang Long anymore.
"Alright! Let's have a match!" One of the Household Guards gritted his teeth and stepped forward to accept the challenge.
"Please go ahead." Ying Sang stood proudly in the arena. The aura of confidence and the knowledge of her enemy she learned from Wang Long made her realize that there was no need to panic against such an opponent. However, she had not practiced long enough; otherwise, she might have been able to gauge her opponent's strength right away.
The Household Guard let out a cold snort. Facing such a "woman," he had no reason to be afraid and immediately launched his attack.
Indeed, although this person had not received any good training methods, he was quite experienced in combat. He struck directly at the center, and if it were someone with rich practical experience, even with some strength, they would hesitate to take it head-on in a panic. Once you retreat, you would be completely suppressed by the opponent. In a situation where strengths are similar, it becomes much harder to turn the tables.
From this perspective, it seems that the Yu Family's Household Guards are not completely useless!
However, he still underestimated one thing!
That is, Ying Sang's strength was not on par with his; she was above him!
"Flying Shadow!" He executed his move, but only struck at Ying Sang's illusion. The Household Guard felt something was off; he had not seen through Ying Sang's technique, meaning he had no idea where she had concealed herself behind the illusion. Nevertheless, his combat experience kicked in, and after missing his strike, he quickly thought to protect himself from any potential attack by Ying Sang.
But it was already too late!
A swift hand strike aimed at the back of the Household Guard's neck delivered a surge of Water Element ice energy into him, leaving him completely defenseless as he collapsed to the ground.
One move defeated the enemy!
Not only the other Household Guards but even their leader couldn't help but be moved!
Although that guy's strength was not impressive, he was at least one of them and was good at currying favor with others. The leader had often given him pointers. Yet today, he was taken down in one move by a woman, completely unable to fight back!
Not only that, but this woman was merely a subordinate of Wang Long. Should they reevaluate Wang Long's strength now?
"What's the matter? Is there anyone else coming?" For Ying Sang, this was just a warm-up.
Even though she knew her strength had improved, she still didn't expect to reach such a level. Through the recent real confrontation, she could clearly feel how much her abilities had advanced. Excited, she wanted to have a few more matches to better integrate her current strength into practical use.
"Hmph! Don't get too proud; just now it was merely a moment of carelessness on our side!"
Another member of the Household Guards, feeling indignant and wanting to teach this arrogant woman a lesson, was stopped by their leader.
"Forget it; you are no match for her. Wang Long, I must admit that at least your subordinate is quite capable. Although she is a woman, she is impressive. But after all, this is a contest between you and me; let's battle next!"
Ying Sang snorted lightly, but she also knew that no matter how quickly her strength improved, she could not possibly contend with a former elder-level expert from a certain Sect. She stepped aside to wait for Wang Long to take action himself.
"No need; you should face my subordinate again!" No one expected Wang Long to be so bold as to let Ying Sang challenge this person directly again!
