Chapter 20 Calculations_1

Translator: 549690339

If Yang Yi were to return to the Yang Family, then in the eyes of Gu Qingya and the others, the Yang Family would be akin to an ancient dragon soaring through the sky—a prospect she never dared to dream of becoming a part of as their daughter-in-law.

The Black Sparrow Elder was already full of resentment over having to kneel and kowtow, and upon hearing Yang Yi's refusal, he flew into a rage, "A toast refused is a forfeit endured!"

After speaking, he immediately dialed the Yang Family's high-ranking members and scolded furiously, "What kind of ludicrous plan have you come up with! I have said it before, this guy is like a stone in a latrine—stinking and hard!"

The upper echelons of the Yang Family had also noticed the situation here. A man wearing a golden mask sat in the Family Head's seat and said coldly, "Then teach him a lesson!"

With these instructions, the Black Sparrow Elder looked toward Yang Yi with disdain, "Do you want to see whose medical skills are superior, or do you want to see the strength of the Yang Family?"

By now, the venue was entirely under the Yang Family's control, with uniformed Yang Family secret guards barricading all the doors.

Chen Lin could tell that these people were at least of mercenary origins; anyone trying to leave was stopped and turned back.

Standing beside Yang Yi, Gu Qingya only today really saw the darkness in society, where unreasonable behavior was commonplace among these influential families.

Worried, Gu Qingya tugged at the corner of Yang Yi's clothes and reminded him, "Is this, the Yang Family you once belonged to? Should we call the police?"

Taking a deep breath and furrowing his brow, Yang Yi was still not the least bit nervous and reassured Qing Ya, "It's nothing, just a small skirmish. No need to call the police. Plus, take a look, your phone signal has been jammed!"

Pulling out her cellphone to check, Gu Qingya was astounded; she had not expected the Yang Family would go to such lengths. Was this a family of medical practitioners or simply bully using their power?

Naturally, Yang Ghost Hand knew he was no match for Yang Yi, but with the Black Sparrow Elder's backing, he boldly said, "Yang Yi, why all the hesitation! Are you scared?"

As he spoke, a cold smile appeared on the corner of Yang Ghost Hand's mouth, and he thought to himself, "You should know that once a man's Achilles' heel is grasped, he will…"

Yang Yi's expression changed dramatically in an instant—he, of course, knew what an Achilles' heel was: his daughter, Yi Yi, who was in kindergarten.

But it was the past actions of the Yang Family that Yang Yi remembered, and because of this, he could no longer reconcile with the Yang Family, let alone the vendetta involving his parents.

"Ghost Gate Seven-Needle Technique! The secret skill, Mysterious Yellow Six Yang!"

With an indifferent touch of his teacup, Yang Yi surprisingly shot out six ice needle-like silver needles, which made Chen Lin gasp in shock.

She had always claimed to be a Divine Doctor, and had always wanted to measure her skills against Yang Yi. But, witnessing this miracle, she instantly recognized her own inferiority.

Even her own master couldn't accomplish turning water into ice, much less transform it into silver needles!

Such needles, formed from water, were far more suitable for human acupuncture points than metal needles, and they could also be used to inject medicine.

The Black Sparrow Elder's face showed lines of frustration; his highest achievement was the flying needle technique to hit acupuncture points, the Ghost Gate Seven Needles, but he had only reached the fourth needle.

Seeing Yang Ghost Hand's face twisted with embarrassment, the eighty-year-old elder was left speechless at this moment. Yet Yang Yi had something to say.

He looked around at the people present at the venue and then addressed the Black Sparrow Elder, "Since you lack even the courage to compete, how mighty you were when you crippled my hands back then!"

At that moment, "whoosh!"

Four silver needles shot out, and both Yang Ghost Hand's and the Black Sparrow Elder's hands started to tremble.

Enduring the excruciating pain, Yang Ghost Hand shouted, "Yang Family's secret guards, what are you waiting for? Take this brat down!"

A man in black, with a cigarette dangling from the corner of his mouth and a horse-like long face, pale and sinister, was indeed Feiyu from the Yang Family's secret division.

He let out a cold laugh and said, "The Family Head has ordered us to control the venue only, as for how you are taught a lesson, it's because you are outmatched!"

This too was within the Yang Family's calculations; the Family Head naturally knew the fury in Yang Yi's heart. Without someone coming forward to take the fall, how could he possibly rest, which was why he had already given instructions to the Yang Family's secret division.

A sense of betrayal swept over Yang Ghost Hand; he glanced at Tang Shihao, knowing this was his last card to play.

Behind Tang Shihao was the Tang Family, one of the top ten noble families, but at that moment, Tang Shihao stood beside Chen Lin, laughing with a smirk, "Miss Chen, it's actually the first time I've realized you're so beautiful!"

"Shi Hao, you!"

Yang Ghost Hand's insinuations received no response, and he exclaimed, "You unfilial disciple! I told you to kidnap that bastard's daughter, did you do it?"

Hearing these words, Gu Qingya trembled all over; Yi Yi was her precious child. She stammered, "You, what did you say!"

The usually composed Gu Qingya was now also consumed by anger, "Yang Yi, he, what has he done to our daughter!"

For Yang Yi, Yi Yi was his reverse scale, incur the touch and invoke a dragon's wrath. His fists clenched tightly and cracked ominously.

The Black Sparrow Elder hadn't anticipated this move from Yang Ghost Hand, and seeing the usually calm Yang Yi now visibly moved, he said with a spiteful smile despite the pain in his immobilized hands, "Yang Yi, you now have a weakness. How can you fight against us!"

At once, both men felt a malicious satisfaction, not as a result of the Yang Family's arrangements, but because they mistakenly thought they had kidnapped Yang Yi's daughter, Yi Yi.
