Chapter 930: Even More Unreasonable

Yue Yunfeng's face turned green with rage. In Brightmoon City, no one had ever dared to be so arrogant.

Clearly this was Brightmoon City, yet Ye Yuan had turned the tables and told Yue Yunfeng to get lost.

Everyone was speechless. This Ye Yuan was a perfect example of someone relying on his talent to look down on others. Relying on his abilities, he didn't even take the Yue family seriously.

Such geniuses often suffer great losses.

"Fine! Very well! A mere Heaven Enlightenment cultivator dares to be so arrogant—you really think the Yue family has no one!"

Sure enough, Yue Yunfeng was now truly enraged. He took out a talisman and ignited it with yuan power.

"Whoosh!"

A piercing sound rang out as the talisman flew into the sky and burned.

The burning was extremely conspicuous, clearly a signal.

Seeing this, Ding Shiyu's expression changed drastically. Now things had really blown up.

She had only wanted to avoid going home, never expecting matters to escalate to this point.

"Ye Yuan, leave quickly! The Yue family is powerful—you can't resist them!" Ding Shiyu urged.

Yue Yunfeng sneered, "Boy, if you've got guts, don't run! The Yue family's dignity is not something just anyone can provoke!"

In truth, Yue Yunfeng was somewhat wary of Ye Yuan. The Moonflower Heavenly Eye was his trump card, yet Ye Yuan had shown no reaction.

He was cautious by nature, so he had sent the family signal; soon, stronger members would arrive.

Ye Yuan showed no intention of fleeing. He said calmly, "Run? Why should I run? Since things have come to this, unless Yue Jianqiu comes to invite me in person, I won't go to the Yue family. I think you'd better prepare to be punished by the Yue family."

The people on the street were about to lose it. This Ye Yuan was blowing things out of proportion.

Who was Yue Jianqiu? He was the current head of the Yue family, a true Divine King powerhouse!

Would such a figure come out to welcome a Heaven Enlightenment brat?

Ye Yuan mentioned Ding Zhanguo one moment and Yue Jianqiu the next; anyone listening would think he was the head of some major power.

Only the top figures of major powers dared to address these people by name.

Even a Dao Profound Eighth Layer cultivator wouldn't dare to call them that. At the very least, they would add a respectful title.

Yue Yunfeng sneered, "How ridiculous! What do you think you are, to have the family head come greet you? You don't know your place!"

Ye Yuan shrugged, showing no intention to argue.

Seeing this, Yue Yunfeng's heart began to waver.

Could this kid really have some trick, or come from a significant background?

Impossible!

Yue Yunfeng knew all the young geniuses in the Divine Realm, and Ye Yuan wasn't among them.

This kid was just bluffing!

As they spoke, several figures flew over.

Now, with many geniuses gathered in Brightmoon City, conflicts like today's were inevitable. Many Dao Profound experts from the Yue family had been sent out to patrol, to prevent major disturbances.

"Yunfeng, what happened?" A middle-aged man frowned.

He was clearly displeased with Yue Yunfeng for sending the family signal. With the city's complex web of powers, it was best to keep things under control.

Once the family signal was sent, it would attract more attention. If not handled properly, it could trigger a chain reaction.

Some major powers were not even the Yue family could afford to offend.

Seeing the newcomer, a smile appeared on Ye Yuan's face.

Ye Yuan didn't know who Yue Yunfeng was. In his past life, his status was too transcendent; when he came to Brightmoon City, Yue Yunfeng wasn't even qualified to approach him, so he naturally had no memory of him.

Before the youngest peak Alchemy Emperor, Yue Yunfeng could only watch from afar.

But this man before him, Ye Yuan recognized.

He was slightly older than Yue Yunfeng, of the same generation as Yue Jianqiu—Yue Yunfeng's uncle, Yue Jianfeng.

Coincidentally, when Ye Yuan came to Brightmoon City back then, Yue Jianfeng was in charge of his daily needs, and they had some dealings.

Yue Yunfeng whispered a few words in Yue Jianfeng's ear. Yue Jianfeng frowned and turned a sharp gaze on Ye Yuan.

"Young man, although the Yue family is not a top family in the Divine Realm, we are not to be insulted by anyone! Don't you owe me an explanation?" Yue Jianfeng said sternly.

By now, more and more people were gathering around, making the situation very sensitive.

If Ye Yuan didn't apologize, the Yue family would lose face and become a laughingstock among the major powers of the Divine Realm.

All Yue Jianfeng wanted was a way out!

Ye Yuan stood proudly, unafraid of Yue Jianfeng's aura. He said calmly, "Explanation? What explanation? Today's matter had nothing to do with your Yue family, but as soon as Yue Yunfeng arrived, he took Ding Shuo's side without asking any questions. Isn't that just because he thinks my background is weaker than his? If the Yue family acts like this, won't the heroes of the world be disheartened?"

Ye Yuan's words stirred a commotion among the crowd.

Martial artists were ranked in classes, and the Yue family naturally couldn't treat everyone equally. But such matters were not meant to be brought into the open; otherwise, they would offend too many people.

After all, only a few genius martial artists had powerful backing.

Yue Jianfeng cursed the little fox under his breath—with one sentence, he had seized the initiative in public opinion.

Compared to Ding Shuo, Ye Yuan was indeed the underdog. These words easily resonated with most of the crowd.

Thus, the Yue family had to be cautious about taking action against Ye Yuan.

One misstep could ruin the Yue family's reputation.

Public opinion can melt metal; accumulated slander can destroy bones.

Although the Yue family wasn't afraid of these people, it would greatly harm their reputation.

"Yunfeng's handling was indeed a bit rash, but that was because he saw you draw your sword and kill someone, leading to a misunderstanding. However, insulting the Yue family is your fault!"

Yue Jianfeng was also experienced, insisting that Ye Yuan had insulted the Yue family.

Ye Yuan sneered, "Ding Shuo activated the Ten Thousand Dharma Lamp to kill me—I don't believe Yue Yunfeng didn't see it! Why didn't he stop it then? When I fought back, it became 'killing in the street' and 'disrespecting the Yue family'? If others are unreasonable, I am even more unreasonable! Cursing your Yue family a few times—what's the big deal?"

Ye Yuan had long known that Yue Yunfeng was present at the time, but he hadn't called him out.

If Yue Yunfeng had been fair, Ye Yuan would have let it slide. But he immediately questioned Ye Yuan, which thoroughly angered him.

Ding Shuo had been silent all along, but upon hearing Ye Yuan's words, his face flushed red.

He had even used the Ten Thousand Dharma Lamp, yet still nearly been killed by Ye Yuan—this was a utter disgrace.

After today, he would likely become a laughingstock to everyone.

Yue Jianfeng frowned, feeling a headache coming on.

Ye Yuan saw through everything and was extremely stubborn; making him bow his head would not be easy!

If it came to it, they would have to use force to make him submit!
