An Xue’s face was ashen, but he had nothing to say, after all, it was he who had proposed the contest of horsemanship.

Just then, someone said softly, “Your spear technique is not bad, pity, it is but the bravery of a common man!”

Accompanying the words, a man walked slowly from afar.

The onlookers stood with their hands down at their sides, respectfully saying, “Third Master!”

The newcomer was none other than the current de facto head of the An Family, An Yan’s uncle, An Chang!

An Chang was over forty years old this year, but due to proper care, he appeared considerably younger.

Moreover, his demeanor was elegant, his temperament noble, he was clearly someone who had held high positions for a long time.

At the moment, a hint of arrogance surfaced on An Chang’s face.

“Are you Xue An?”

Xue An’s expression was detached; he did not speak.

An Chang said indifferently, “Your kung fu is not bad, but in Zhongdu, what counts is the power and wealth in your hands, not displaying the bravery of a mere commoner.”

As soon as he had spoken, the black horse beneath Xue An suddenly leapt over the railings of the riding ground, charging straight toward An Chang.

Only at a finger’s distance from An Chang’s chest did the black horse finally come to a stop.

An Chang could even smell the hot breath exhaled by the horse.

Xue An, seated on the horse, said flatly, “The bravery of a common man? Do you believe that before absolute strength, when a common man becomes angry, the entire world must bow down?”

An Chang’s face turned pale as paper in an instant, his eyes glaring at Xue An with venomous hatred.

The atmosphere grew tense.

However, at that moment, a decently dressed elderly butler arrived at the scene, saying solemnly, “The old lady has ordered, for now, let An Yan and the others stay in the house, we will discuss everything after the birthday feast.”

With the old lady’s word, An Chang lowered his gaze and stepped to the side.

After the elderly butler had left, An Chang said coldly, “You are very good, but unfortunately, in a place like Zhongdu, people like you simply don’t live long!”

Xue An smiled faintly, “Oh? Then I… shall wait and see!”

An Chang left.

An Xue also left the riding ground with an ugly expression on his face.

Someone approached and said, “Miss, please follow me!”

Leading An Yan and the others to a secluded courtyard.

Despite its seclusion, the setting here was still elegant and tidy.

“The old lady said you may reside here,” the person continued. “If you need anything, just call for me!”

After saying this, the person bowed and withdrew.

From the quality of the servants, one could discern the gap between top-tier noble families like the Qin Family and the An Family.

Once only the family remained in the room, An Yan lowered her head, somewhat distressed.

“Husband… I’m sorry.”

Xue An smiled, “Why would you apologize to me?”

“Because….”

Xue An waved his hand, his gaze indifferent, “You did nothing wrong from beginning to end; the ones who are wrong are some arrogant and self-righteous people of high status!”

An Yan was stunned.

Xue An walked to the door, looking out at the noble family’s large house hidden behind layers of high walls, and spoke indifferently, “Some people will never admit they are wrong; only blood and death can teach them fear!”

And at this very moment.

Within a Buddhist hall in the An Family estate.

An Yan’s grandmother, the old Madam An, sat with her eyes closed, fingering her prayer beads.

The elderly butler stepped lightly as he entered the hall.

“Old Madam, the Third Master is waiting outside,” he announced.

Old Madam An nodded, “Let him come in!”

An Chang walked into the room, his expression solemn, “Mother, why have you decided to let An Yan and the others stay?”

Old Madam An put down her prayer beads, “How many days are left until my birthday feast?”

“Mother, there are still seven days,” he replied.

A lofty smile emerged on the well-kept face of Old Madam An.

“That girl An Yan eloped out of the capital with a man, losing all face for our An Family. When she later returned, Chi Family’s eldest young master Chi Changge, not holding the past against her, insisted on marrying her, but she ran away again.”

“Twice she has tarnished the reputation of our An Family, do you think, just because she’s come back, it’s as simple as just driving her away?”

“Then what does Mother mean by…”

“Inform the Chi Family! Tell them An Yan has returned!” Madam An said coldly.

“Yes!”

“Also, at the birthday feast, bring several martial art experts. That Xue An, since he was able to defeat our second son, must possess some skills! Unfortunately, he doesn’t understand that in Zhongdu, if my An Family wanted to kill him, it would be no more difficult than crushing a bug!”

“Understood!”

An Chang bowed and left the room.

“Third Master, what does the Old Madam mean?” a butler who followed An Chang asked.

A ruthless light flickered across An Chang’s face.

“On the day of the birthday feast, call over the several experts enshrined by our clan!”

The butler trembled all over, then lowered his head and replied, “Yes!”

At the Chi Family.

Chi Changge hung up the phone, his face terribly grim.

Right at that moment, Chi Weiyang returned from outside.

The young girl radiated the vibrancy of youth, and upon seeing her brother’s unpleasant expression, she couldn’t help but ask in confusion, “Brother, what’s wrong?”

Chi Changge said coldly, “An Yan has come back!”

“An Yan?” Chi Weiyang jerked in shock, “The An Yan from the An Family?”

Chi Changge nodded.

Anger also appeared on Chi Weiyang’s face, “This woman, she’s simply too insolent. Back then, Brother, you didn’t despise her for being married before, and wanted to marry her, yet she ran away! Now she’s back…”

“She’s come back with a child!” Chi Changge added.

Chi Weiyang froze for a moment, before sighing and saying, “Brother, just let it go then. As long as you’re willing, there are women from Zhongdu’s safety gates to Bao Mansion who’d be willing to marry you. Why must it be her?”

Chi Changge remained silent.

Seeing this, Chi Weiyang sighed again and then left.

Flames seemed to burn in Chi Changge’s eyes.

He recalled the first time he met An Yan.

It was during university, when he went to handle some matters at the university An Yan attended, and happened upon An Yan and Xue An together.

Even then, An Yan had left a deep impression on Chi Changge, and after that he was unable to forget her.

His family was also in agreement when they found out.

After all, both the Chi Family and An Family were considered top-tier noble families in Zhongdu, a perfect match in terms of status.

But he hadn’t expected An Yan to be so stubborn, to elope from the capital.

This was a huge blow to Chi Changge, and it even led him to quickly transform into a scoundrel who would not let go of any woman.

And now.

An Yan had returned.

Chi Changge’s eyes flickered.

What I can’t have, no one else shall dream of having either!

Even if… it means destroying it, I will not hesitate!

Lost in these thoughts, Chi Changge’s face was filled with ruthlessness.

In a highly confidential military camp within Zhongdu.

An Qing placed the Flowing Light Sword on the table, then stood respectfully to the side, gazing at the majestic silhouette of the man in front of her.

After what felt like an eternity, the man’s voice came.

“You’re saying, the one who broke through the Immortal’s legacy this time, is still that Xue An?”

An Qing nodded, “Yes!”

The man turned around.

He was dressed in a military uniform, his figure upright and bold, and his face filled with a strong sense of righteousness and masculine charm.

If anyone was there, they would have gasped in shock.

Because this man, was none other than the legendary figure said to support half the skies of Huaxia’s military world.

General Lin!
