“Damn you, who do you think you are, to make me fly again!”
“You’ve disrupted a significant event for both parties, can you bear the responsibility!”
Brandon was instantly infuriated by Shangguan Yun’s words and began to scold him.
In his eyes, the other party was merely two squad leaders. With such a status, let alone cursing them, even beating them up would be acceptable.
“Whether I can bear the responsibility is my business.”
Shangguan Yun looked at him indifferently and continued, “But whether you follow us now, that is your business!”
You! You…
With that remark, Brandon’s anger flared even more. He pointed furiously at Shangguan Yun and said, “Who do you think you are, speaking to an envoy of the Temple of Light like this? You’re so ill-mannered! Today, I will discipline you on behalf of your superiors!”
As he finished speaking, Brandon had already raised his arm and swung it towards Shangguan Yun.
Because Ye Cangtian had taken action at the Guangming City airport previously, and the Pope was left helpless with anger afterward, he now wanted to retaliate in kind.
After all, he was in the right in this matter and was not afraid of escalating the situation.
“Brandon, I don’t care if you are an envoy of the Temple of Light. If you land that slap, I guarantee I’ll cripple your arm. You’d best think carefully!”
Just as Brandon made his move, a lazy voice cut through the air.
Brandon froze instantly, feeling an urge to laugh.
He was an honored guest of the Guangming Inner Hall, with a cultivation of quasi-heavenly tier eight. With such strength, how many people in all of China could break his arm?
How could he be intimidated?
However, in the next moment, his aged large hand finally stopped in front of Shangguan Yun’s face, less than a centimeter away.
After all, he was in China, and it was best to be cautious. Furthermore, he had not come here to antagonize China.
Thus, at the critical moment, he halted his action.
In the next moment, Brandon scanned the entire area and said indifferently, “Who is speaking? Do you dare to show yourself?”
“Heh heh, walk forward, keep walking, and you’ll see this seat naturally.”
The voice came again. Brandon looked ahead and saw that on the other side of the welcoming party, there was a convoy of cars.
Could there be someone in the convoy? And a strong one at that?
As he thought this, Brandon decided to investigate. After all, he had the status of an envoy, and he believed the other party would not dare to trouble him here.
Walking quickly, Brandon soon reached the front of the convoy. In the next moment, his expression turned frosty.
A man in the car, wearing sunglasses, was lying on the back seat, his legs resting impolitely on the steering wheel, exuding an air of extreme laziness.
The man didn't even react to his approach. This feeling of being ignored made him incredibly angry.
“Was that you speaking just now?”
Brandon’s voice fell. Ye Cangtian turned his head and glanced over, saying indifferently, “If you’re not blind, you should be able to tell, shouldn’t you?”
All the cars in the convoy were convertibles, meaning he was the only one in the cars. Everyone else had gone to welcome.
Under such circumstances, the speaker could only be him.
“You! Who exactly are you!”
“How dare you disrespect this seat! Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance. If you kowtow and apologize, this seat will forget your transgressions!”
Brandon stared fixedly at Ye Cangtian. From the latter’s demeanor, he appeared to be a young man.
Among the young people, as long as it wasn’t Ye Cangtian, there was no one he dared not offend!
And with Ye Cangtian’s strength and his status in China, how could Ye Cangtian personally come to pick him up?
“Heh heh, on my territory, you dare to steal my lines? You’re the first!”
Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and continued, “Very well, then this seat will change its lines. I’d like to see what abilities you have to make this seat kneel and beg for mercy!”
As he spoke, Ye Cangtian pushed off the car with his hands and jumped out.
On the other side, seeing the other party’s actions, a fierce glint flashed in Brandon’s eyes. Without waiting for him to land, he lunged forward and threw a punch.
His objective was simple: to subdue the opponent in one move.
*Smack!*
However, his seemingly ferocious punch was caught by the wrist before it could even land.
“Brandon, you’re finally resorting to sneak attacks. That’s quite shameless!”
A slightly somber voice came through. Brandon was shocked and filled with dread, because no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t pull his arm back.
This outcome could only mean one thing: the other party’s cultivation was superior to his.
“You, who exactly are you…”
This time, Brandon’s voice carried a hint of a tremor. He knew in his heart that he had likely offended a major figure.
“You dare to come to China without even recognizing this seat?”
“Should this seat call you brave, or foolish?”
Ye Cangtian sneered and glanced at him, slowly taking off the large sunglasses from his face.
“Ye Cangtian!”
Brandon’s eyes widened. Before coming to China, he had naturally sought information about China, which included Ye Cangtian.
But he hadn’t expected that the face hidden beneath those sunglasses belonged to Ye Cangtian.
Speaking of which, what was the situation in China?
Ye Cangtian was the formidable expert who had severed the Pope’s arm. Was sending him to pick someone up too much of a waste of talent?
Thinking thus, Brandon quickly cupped his hands in a salute and respectfully said, “Greetings, Mr. Ye. I was blind earlier and did not recognize you. Please forgive me!”
Facing Ye Cangtian, Brandon knew he had to restrain himself.
After all, he had heard of Ye Cangtian before; he was an absolute madman, and one never knew what he might do!
Moreover, the Pope had also instructed him that whether he could return alive from his trip to China depended on Ye Cangtian’s attitude.
For this reason, he dared not offend Ye Cangtian.
Seeing Brandon salute, Ye Cangtian said indifferently, “I heard you were quite dissatisfied with the welcoming party? Where did they fall short?”
This…
With that question, Brandon broke out in a cold sweat. If it were before, he would indeed have been dissatisfied, as they had only sent two squad leaders, which was a clear underestimation of him.
But now, how could he say such a thing!
Ye Cangtian himself had come, which was not an underestimation, but rather an immense show of respect for him.
Thinking this, Brandon waved his hands repeatedly, saying, “A misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding. I am now very satisfied with China’s arrangements.”
“That’s not right. I recall you were about to attack my brother just now?”
“Shouldn’t you give me a reasonable explanation?”
Ye Cangtian glanced at him and said with a sneer.
“It’s nothing, it was just some verbal disagreement with the young man. Young people always…”
*Cough, cough!*
Brandon waved his hand, about to dismiss the matter, when he heard two light coughs from Ye Cangtian.
In an instant, he seemed to understand something!
“Then… that, I was a bit impulsive, and I offended that young man…”
Brandon spoke through gritted teeth, feeling extremely aggrieved in his heart.
He was, after all, an honored guest of the Temple of Light! His status was quite lofty, yet now he was defeated by Ye Cangtian’s threat. It was truly pathetic!
However, he had no choice. After all, when one is under someone else’s roof, one must bow their head.
“Since you admit to offending my brother, then everything is easily resolved!”
Ye Cangtian smiled with satisfaction and then said, “My brother cannot be bullied for nothing. You know what needs to be done, don’t you?”
“Understood, understood, I understand.”
Brandon nodded repeatedly. Although the other party wore a smile, the fleeting coldness in his eyes sent shivers down his spine.
Therefore, to avoid Ye Cangtian causing trouble, he felt it was better to compensate and resolve the issue.
In the next instant, he took out a Qiankun bag and walked towards Shangguan Yun, saying, “My young friend, I was impulsive just now. Please accept this token of my sincerity!”
“Then I won’t be polite.”
Shangguan Yun sneered and directly took the Qiankun bag.
*Crackling…*
Seeing Shangguan Yun’s actions, Brandon gnashed his teeth in anger. He had offered significant compensation, but the other party didn’t even say thank you, making him feel like a complete sucker.
Who could tolerate this?
