Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 1369: Saving Face Is Important


Sure, here is the translation:

Su Zhengyi then looked at Su Hualin again and said, "What are you still doing here? Why don't you go quickly?"

Su Hualin nodded immediately upon hearing his father's words, not daring to linger, and walked out at once.

Huo Wensong's brows furrowed tightly. At this moment, he was very unhappy because it seemed to him that Su Zhengyi didn't take him seriously at all. How could this be acceptable? So, when he saw Su Hualin heading out, Huo Wensong shouted loudly, "Su Hualin, you really listen to your father!"

Su Hualin stopped halfway upon hearing Huo Wensong's fiery words and immediately turned his head to look at Huo Wensong. Clearly, for Su Hualin, even though Huo Wensong might become his son-in-law later, he indeed had to live with this son-in-law's face in mind, so he totally dared not offend him.

"This..." Su Hualin stood there in a dilemma.

Despite being the current head of the Su family, at this moment, caught between Su Zhengyi and Huo Wensong, he really found it difficult to choose, unable to satisfy either.

Su Zhengyi could see that Huo Wensong was already angry. Su Zhengyi understood the temperament of this Crown Prince all too well, knowing that if he got reckless, he truly wouldn't recognize his relatives anymore. Furthermore, to Huo Wensong, the Su family wasn't even kin.

"Wensong, according to your perspective, what should be done? I've lost my head out of panic." Su Zhengyi looked at Ye Xiao and reluctantly forced a smile towards Huo Wensong.

Huo Wensong looked at Su Zhengyi and then said, "Elder Su seems particularly afraid of things. I heard that my father still wishes to support the Su family heavily in the future, but you've made me doubt your family now."

Huo Wensong had previously given face to the Su family to win the favor of Su Yun, this great beauty. However, if the entire Su family didn't take him seriously, Huo Wensong would indeed disregard everyone. Although Su Zhengyi wore a submissive look now, Huo Wensong felt that Su Zhengyi was a bit excessive, after all, he was the Crown Prince.

Upon hearing this, Su Zhengyi was greatly startled and quickly said to Huo Wensong, "Wensong, it's not that my Su family fears trouble, but today you are here, and my Su family wishes for you not to suffer any harm. After all, you will be my grandson-in-law in the future, and we are indeed one family."

Listening to Su Zhengyi's words, Huo Wensong thought of Su Yun. After all, his goal was to win Su Yun over, and it wouldn't be too good to make relations with the Su family overly tense.

"I certainly understand Elder Su's considerate intentions, but who do we represent? That's Linghuo Sect, right? Do you intend to let others mock Linghuo Sect?" Huo Wensong said seriously as he looked at Su Zhengyi.

"Exactly, exactly!" Su Zhengyi dared not continue to defy Huo Wensong's wishes. Although Huo Wensong might lack skill, he always understood one thing; he was the master, and the Su family was the servant.

Meanwhile, as Huo Wensong, Su Zhengyi, Su Hualin, and others conversed in the Su family's main hall, suddenly, intense sounds of force breaking through resounded from outside.

Su Zhengyi and Su Hualin were instantly astonished upon hearing it, as these sounds clearly heralded the start of a battle, and the one thing the Su family wished to avoid had indeed occurred.

Now, as for the fact that Li Jinjiang had left the Su family estate and began provoking those Martial Artists around, initially, those surrounding Martial Artists indeed hesitated to act rashly. However, when Li Jinjiang forcibly charged at them, trying to drive them away through force, those Martial Artists, mostly strangers to each other, united in hostility.

Of course, their thoughts were almost the same, using each other to achieve a grand effect.

Thus, without much dialogue, both sides started fighting.

Though Li Jinjiang led Linghuo Sect's elite, even so, there were too many surrounding Martial Artists, and for a while, it was difficult to gain the upper hand. More importantly, among those Martial Artists, not all were mere wine sacks and food bags; some possessed real skill and fairly formidable strength.

In the blink of an eye, it became a stalemate.

At this moment, about thirty meters away from the combatants, within the woods.

"Things developed quite quickly," Ye Xiao stood by a tree, chuckling to himself.

"Brother Xiao, if this fight continues, the Su family will surely intervene," Wangg Yin said to Ye Xiao.

However, Ye Xiao shook his head and said, "The Su family members may not intervene, but they will certainly step in to mediate."

"Not intervene? How will they step in then?" Everyone was rather puzzled.

Ye Xiao replied, "As a large family, they definitely wouldn't wish for blood to flow before their door, so they'll surely hope to resolve the issue peacefully."

Beside Ye Xiao, Zhou Hao, Wangg Yin, Wang Luoxin, and others looked at each other in confusion, clearly still not comprehending.

However, before long, people indeed arrived at the entrance to the Su family estate.

The visitors were none other than Su Zhengyi, of course accompanied by Su Hualin and Huo Wensong.

Initially, Su Zhengyi suggested Huo Wensong not to go out, yet Huo Wensong believed himself to be Linghuo Sect's Young Sect Master and nobody would dare to harm him. Moreover, if he didn't come out, he'd surely be scorned as a coward.

"Everyone, stop!" Su Zhengyi shouted loudly, projecting his Inner Strength.

This shout was indeed intense enough, all those nearby heard it, and thus everyone ceased fighting. Li Jinjiang promptly led his people to the Su family's side.

At this moment, Su Hualin stepped forward.

Now that Su Hualin was the head of the Su family, it was most appropriate for him to speak at this moment.

"Honorable heroes, I'm not sure what has brought you suddenly to the Su family, but today is a joyous day for us. We, the Su family, welcome friends, yet do not wish for those who come to cause disorder."

Upon Su Hualin's words, those previously chaotic Martial Artists fell silent one by one.

However, just as Su Hualin thought language alone could disperse them, suddenly, a voice emerged quietly from the crowd.

"We came here merely to catch a glimpse of the Heavenly Book, for some enlightenment, surely the Su family wouldn't be so stingy."

Nobody knew who said this, and neither the Su family nor Huo Wensong noticed, whereas, those Martial Artists who came together heard this. They became excited, naturally paying no attention to who spoke. Because the Martial Artists originally found it hard to think of particularly good reasons to be here, now this statement appeared like a suitable reason.
