Chapter 395: 395 will never back down

"Rest assured, it’s not as serious as you think. To go further, you must rely on your own strength. Otherwise, even if you give way this time, sooner or later, someone will still ride roughshod over you." Han Yan knew what he wanted to say, interrupted him in advance, and spoke with a sense of feeling.

Compared to Mu Nan, Han Yan had a much clearer vision; Ye Fengyun was merely using his small power as if it were great authority and could not yet influence the Heaven and Earth Contract signed between Wenren Qingqiu and Nanyan Commerce. They were simply trying to make things difficult for them. There was absolutely no need to swallow their pride.

If the prestige of Nanyan Commerce could not be established quickly, even if Ye Fengyun didn’t make things difficult for them, Nanyan Commerce would still become fragmented and disunited. The ultimate result would be to fade away like a brief blooming of the evening primrose.

Mu Nan was slightly shaken. Indeed, if Nanyan Commerce wanted to go further, as they hoped, they still had to rely on their own strength, just like the practice of the Sword Dao. There were times when it was okay to give way, but when you shouldn’t, you absolutely must not.

Mu Nan could also think of the consequences if justice for those guards was not sought today. After weighing the pros and cons, he said no more.

"Young Master Yuan, have you made your decision?" Han Yan asked again.

"Fine, fine, you want a spar? Then I’ll grant your wish. Brother Qin, I’ll have to trouble you to take action." Yuan Tianbo, seeing that Han Yan didn’t even take Ye Fengyun seriously, knew that he could not avoid the encounter today. Grinding his teeth, he said with a dark face.

"The young master shouldn’t have wasted so much talk with him. They’re just two green kids, I should have taken action earlier, a mere move is all it takes!" A man in his forties walked out from the back courtyard, speaking with a look of scorn.

On seeing this man, Han Yan’s gaze slightly hardened.

No wonder Yuan Tianbo refused to send someone to fight. At first, shethought he was just lacking in confidence, but after seeing this person, Mu Han realized she had oversimplified the matter.

In her past life, led by the Zhao and Zhou families, several big families joined forces to challenge the Mu Family. In the final battle, each family had secret high-level protectors appear; the Mu Family was caught off guard and suffered quite a lot at their hands.

Qin Li, the middle-aged man with the sinister face before her, was one of the Yuan Family’s secret high-level protectors.

If memory served her right, he was a Tenth Rank Great Swordsman at that time. The Third Elder had been seriously injured by his surprise attack from behind. If it hadn’t been for the Great Elder’s life-saving intervention, the Third Elder might have perished on the spot.

After the fact, when they tried to trace the origins of these high-level protectors, even though they learned their names, they could never find out exactly when they had been bought over by the big families.

It turned out that Qin Li had joined the Qin Family several years earlier.

And the reason Yuan Tianbo was reluctant to fight was not that he was afraid of her but that he didn’t want to spread the news prematurely, just like in her past life.

"Is that so? Be careful that too much bravado doesn’t twist your tongue. We’ll see who is merely a ’mere move’ soon." Just as Han Yan was inwardly alarmed, Huayue and Zirong had already stepped forward, coming in front of Qin Li.

These two guys, how could they go without waiting for my orders? Han Yan inwardly sensed trouble, seeing the two eager to try, obviously unaware of Qin Li’s true strength, still treating him as someone they could easily crush like before.

"You two, get back here," Han Yan said in a deep voice.

Qin Li’s strength was far greater than theirs, and now Han Yan felt somewhat stuck in a difficult position. The only way out was for her to take action herself, but doing so would likely mean her secret would no longer be safe.

But if not, would she let them go to their deaths? No, absolutely not!
