Chapter 902: Chapter 943: 2 vs 1

After visiting the Xiao Family, Li Yifei made another trip to the Zheng Family. With his intervention, both the Xiao and Zheng families had unconsciously become allies—at least on this matter. They were in cahoots, speaking in unison that as long as Li Yifei managed to defeat the four experts they sent out, they would accept his victory.

Li Yifei had no choice but to agree, lacking any other option.

On the way back, Su’s Third Eldest had Li Yifei ride with him in the same carriage, which felt awkward to Li Yifei. This old guy was just too peculiar; being with Su’s Third Eldest made Li Yifei feel like he was turning into a nonconformist himself.

"Kid, we’re in for a good show now," Su’s Third Eldest said, pressing the accelerator and zooming off. He maneuvered the carriage effortlessly, wearing a mischievously gleeful smile on his face.

"What do you mean? Are the Xiao and Zheng families’ experts really that formidable?"

"That depends on who they send out. Normally, everyone conceals their true strength. Some real experts can’t even be hidden away; they won’t make an appearance unless necessary. I suspect that this time these two families might actually send out their real experts."

Li Yifei responded calmly, "So how strong are their experts?"

"Who knows? I’ve never fought with their real experts; I’ve only exchanged a few blows with that Fourth Master Xiao, and each time I gave him a thrashing, heh heh... But for us of the Su Family, they are surely very tough opponents. As for the actual strength of their experts, only a real confrontation will tell."

Li Yifei rolled his eyes; it was as if nothing had been said. However, the prospect of facing real experts was indeed something to be excited about.

That night, Li Yifei had a peaceful sleep, nestled with Su Mengxin. The next day, she told him to rest well and be ready in his best condition for the competition. By two in the afternoon, Li Yifei had arrived at the Xiao Family.

Several key members from the Xiao and Zheng families were already waiting there. Xiao Ling’er and Zheng Yuling were also present; this time, they didn’t rush over immediately but looked at Li Yifei with concern. They knew the importance of this battle and did not want to disrupt his focus.

"Haha, Fourth Master Xiao, Zheng Fifth, you’re all here," Su’s Third Eldest still carried his carefree demeanor.

At the Zheng Family residence, the one in charge was Fifth Master Zheng, who was not the family head. Truth be told, this affair was somewhat embarrassing for both families. Even though it was important, their heads would not show up. Only if Li Yifei won would the family heads possibly sit down with the Su Family to discuss cooperation.

"Where are the experts from your two families?" As soon as Su’s Third Eldest walked in, he looked around but could not see any experts, which prompted him to ask.

Fourth Master Xiao replied with a smile, "They’re all in the martial arts hall."

Su’s Third Eldest said eagerly, "Damn, then let’s hurry over. Seeing experts in action is quite an exhilarating thing!"

Fourth Master Xiao said teasingly, "What’s this, Third Su, you want to be our Xiao Family’s son-in-law? If you really have that notion, we wouldn’t object. Just fight them, and it’s settled."

Su’s Third Eldest rolled his eyes and said, "I might be able to take care of you, Fourth Master Xiao, but these experts you drummed up are probably not so easy to handle. Besides, I have no interest in your family’s young ladies."

"Ha... so Third Su can play dumb too, huh?" Fourth Master Xiao burst into a pleased laugh.

"I’m not playing dumb; I know my limits. You think you can seek revenge through them? No chance. You, Fourth Master Xiao, are destined to be bullied by me for life."

Fifth Master of the Zheng Family, not skilled in martial arts, didn’t have the same grievances with Su’s Third Eldest. Seeing the back and forth arguments, Zheng Fifth grew impatient and said, "Gentlemen, let’s proceed with the task at hand. We can’t keep those four waiting too long, or it’ll be hard to explain."

Fourth Master Xiao stopped bickering with Su’s Third Eldest, and they all walked together toward the back.

Yifei had been to the Xiao Family the day before but only saw the front hall, not venturing to the back. This time, upon reaching the backyard, he realized the expanse of the Xiao Family estate.

After several turns, they arrived in front of a large hall. Su’s Third Eldest was eager to barge in, but Fourth Master Xiao gestured to stop him and said, "Third Su, have you thought it through? Do you really want to go in?"

Third Su hesitated for a moment, then rolled his eyes and retorted, "If not, then I won’t enter. Anyway, Yifei won’t fail to tell me later."

Fourth Master Xiao smiled triumphantly, then turned to Li Yifei and said, "You may enter."

Li Yifei nodded and headed for the hall doors. Su Mengxin remained calm while Su Mengfei blinked her large eyes curiously at the doorway. Meanwhile, Xiao Ling’er and Zheng Yuling watched Li Yifei with tense expressions.

Li Yifei felt their gazes and shot Su Mengxin a comforting look before pushing the door open. Everyone wanted to take the opportunity to peek inside and see who was there, but no one was visible, and as soon as Li Yifei had entered, the door seemed to close by itself.

Watching the door close, Xiao Ling’er and Zheng Yuling immediately ran to Su Mengxin’s side, both of them anxiously asked, "Mengxin, do you think Yifei can win?"

Su Mengxin smiled slightly and said, "Don’t you have confidence in him?"

Xiao Ling’er grimaced, "I have confidence in Yifei, but it seems that they are the strongest in our two families, and there are four of them. If they all attack at once, I’m really worried."

Zheng Yuling also nodded with a wry smile, "Mengxin, this involves our lifelong happiness, so naturally we are more concerned. It’s not about whether we believe in him or not, but we are really afraid that something might go wrong with Yifei..."

Su Mengxin took hold of them both and said, "Believe in Yifei. He has never let me down, and I believe this time will be no exception."

Su’s Third Eldest then jokingly said to Fourth Master Xiao, "Hey Elder Fourth, is there any surveillance?"

"No!" Fourth Master Xiao replied grumpily.

"Then is there any place to sneak a peek?"

"Likewise, no. This is where the Xiao Family’s experts practice, and our family members are not allowed here on normal days. If you don’t believe me, you can go and look for yourself."

Elder Su turned and walked away, but after a couple of steps, he stopped and said, "Fourth Master Xiao, I won’t fall for your trick. You might have set some trap somewhere, and if I went there, I would end up in a dire state. I’d rather wait here for the news."

Inside, Li Yifei saw four individuals seated on either side of the hall, their backs to the door. From the outside, they could not be seen—it was only upon entering that their presence was revealed.

"I am Li Yifei, I humbly ask the four experts for guidance," Li Yifei said as soon as he entered, skipping the niceties. It was just a fight after all, and facing clearly skilled opponents, getting to have a hearty battle was one of life’s great pleasures.

"Hey!" A loud shout came from the left, and a person suddenly spun around and charged at Li Yifei, throwing a punch with full force and tremendous speed.

However, the moment Li Yifei saw the move, he knew what he was up against. The man was undoubtedly a master to outsiders, but compared to him, there was a clear gap. If all four were of the same level, even if they attacked together, Li Yifei might not claim with certainty that he would win, but to defend himself would certainly be no problem. If he were willing to go for the kill, his chances would be even greater by twenty percent.

Li Yifei also shouted deeply and countered with a punch of his own.

Their fists collided solidly, halting the other’s charging momentum on the spot. The blow Li Yifei landed forced the man’s follow-up move to falter, and he retreated three steps only to stabilize his stance.

"Good kid, truly a master," praised another person from the right, as he pounced toward Li Yifei.

This person started with intricate grappling techniques, each move quite clever. Li Yifei matched with his own set of grappling methods, pushing the opponent back two steps in just a couple of exchanges.

As the fight commenced, Li Yifei demonstrated his formidable strength, driving the two back. The pair shouted simultaneously and attacked him together, their styles one rigid, one supple. Although their coordination was not perfect, their strength was substantial enough that after a few exchanges, they were able to complement each other, attacking with fierce precision.

Li Yifei remained composed and managed the two masters’ assault with ease. Even surrounded, there was little threat to him, but he dared not exert his full strength yet, as two others had yet to make a move. The longer they held back, the more cautious Li Yifei became.

In such a battle, Li Yifei was exceptionally calm; without great confidence, he would not reveal his hand.

After deflecting several moves, the two were still unable to overpower Li Yifei, who forced them into awkward positions, to their utter astonishment; they had not expected Li Yifei, the Golden Eagle, to possess such formidable power.

Amidst the fray, Li Yifei maneuvered the two towards a person who had been sitting still and not turning around. With a clever technique, he pulled an opponent’s punch towards the seated individual.

The person reacted as if eyes were grown on the back of his head, easily deflecting the punch with a raised hand, then slowly turning around.

When Li Yifei caught sight of him, he was taken aback and almost exclaimed in shock—for he recognized the person and had not expected to encounter him here.
