Chapter 193 Fight Face To Face
Lanny was also surprised at the news. He stood up suddenly, walked over to the servant, seized his collar and barked, "How many people?" "T-two. Two of them are coming!"
the servant replied, frightened.
"Two of them?”
Every Li in the room was stunned, yet again.
Lanny frowned as if he couldn't believe what he had heard. He asked again, "You said that only two people from the Zhang Clan broke into our courtyard, didn't you?"
The servant nodded vigorously.
"So those two Zhang idiots really think that we Lis are so weak? What are they thinking? Do they really think they can take on our whole clan? Just the two of them?"
Lanny let go of the servant as he laughed coldly.
"Okay, now I want to see how powerful the so-called members of the Zhang Clan are. Are they supermen? They think they can get away with it?"
He shook his head and turned to his servant, his eyes and voice cold. "It will be to our advantage if they come here, which saves our time and effort. Tell everyone in the courtyard to close the gate and block the exit. Our Courtyard is not a place they can barge in and exit as per their whims and fancies!"
"Yes, master," the servant said and turned around swiftly to leave and do as Lanny had asked.
"Let's go to have a look and see who it is that gives such great courage to the Zhangs!"
Lanny waved his hand to indicate that the others follow him. Exiting the meeting hall with a laugh, he walked over the front of the courtyard with long, deliberate strides. The others hurried to keep up with him. The group, led by Lanny, soon saw that there were two figures standing at the gate.
A thin young man of about seventeen years stood there smiling sarcastically at them. He was wearing a grey gown. The young woman was of slender build and had a pretty face. Her eyes flashed with hatred as she saw Lanny walk towards them.
On the ground near them lay more than ten members of the Li Clan, writhing and moaning in pain. The gate that guarded the house had been broken to bits.
"You must be the head of this Clan. It's nice to meet you," Austin said to Lanny.
"Good. Both of you will stay here forever!” Lanny bellowed.
As his eyes followed his people on the ground, his face hardened. Some of them were badly injured and some, he realized were dead. He stepped forward and pointed a finger at Austin. He wanted to be as cruel to this man as possible.
Austin smirked.
"I think you've made a mistake, Mr. Li. I am not a member of the Zhang Clan. My family name is Lin. The lady here is the one you should be talking to. I was just helping her because of the contemptible things you've done to her clan. I came here with her because I'm a gentleman and it is unfair for her to have gone through that.”
Lanny was taken aback. He had never imagined that the young man was only a helper and that it was the girl who was the Zhang. The helper was so calm and collected, as though he was talking to a friend and not a possible adversary.
"Hmm. Skippy, let me give you a piece of valuable advice. A woman will always bring you trouble, especially a beautiful one. It's a pity you will lose your life just because of this bitch,” Lanny said cruelly. "Go and tie up this devil couple!" he ordered his servants.
Lanny assumed that Mindy had charmed Austin into helping her against the Li Clan.
And seeing as they were youngsters and only two of them, Lanny was confident that he could defeat them, even if both had high cultivation bases. He had more than a hundred cultivators from the Li Clan at his disposal, which were enough to fight against Austin and Mindy.
Every cultivator in the Li Clan was gathered in the courtyard once they had received the order.
Austin threw the cultivators an amused smile and walked into the front yard, confident even as he was watched by so many people.
Mindy walked in beside Austin, but she wasn't as calm as he was. She had aroused her dragon feminine constitution and had broken through the Earth Realm. That was true. But she wasn't sure she would be able to defeat so many of the Li cultivators.
"Pity that there will be no more Li Clan in Valley Town after tonight!" Austin said, his voice holding a sinister edge.
Austin walked in the spacious front yard slowly without freaking out even though he saw there were more and more cultivators from the Li Clan appeared as if he did not notice them.
"Skippy, I have to admit you have great courage!" Lanny said, gritting his teeth.
Austin's behavior unsettled Lanny, however much he didn't want to admit it. He waved his hand, and at his gesture, a thick, black gate shot out of nowhere and blocked the path. Again.
After the new gate was shut, more cultivators spilled onto the courtyard and surrounded Austin and Mindy. Every one of them had a weapon in their hands and cruelty writ large on their face. Their weapons shone cold under the light of the moon.
The huge crowd of Li Clan warriors led Austin to shake his head pityingly.
"Don't even think of winning, the devil couple! We won't fight you one- to-one but I will defeat you in the surest way possible and kill both of you. You will regret coming to the Li Clans Courtyard tonight!" Lanny said, his voice ringing with impending savagery.
Lanny smiled coldly at Austin, expecting Austin to be frightened at the little speech and the fact that both of them had been surrounded by so many cultivators.
Austin nodded as Lanny spoke. He knew that Lanny wasn't a fool. He was the leader of the Li Clan and had a high level of cultivation base. If Austin were Lanny, he wouldn't fight one to one, either. There was no fairness in the world at all. There was no fairness in the world, but as long as it could achieve the target regardless of how mean it was, it had to be a good way. Losers were always in the wrong, and Austin fully agreed.
"Kill them!" Lanny screamed an order, pointing at Austin and Mindy. There was great killing intent in his voice.
The order incited a roar of rage in the clan members, and they charged at Austin and Mindy, their weapons held high.
Covered by the crowd, Lanny stared hatefully at the two young people, both of whom still looked calm. "No matter who you are, you will die tonight!" Lanny yelled, voice cold as ice.
"You think these people, who are as weak as ants, will kill us? Send in more and I still will not fear them!" Austin said, a smile growing on his face.
Austin looked around at the cultivators of the Li Clan. He was pretty confident as most of them were at level four to seven of the Energy Gathering Realm.
A bright light glittered, followed by the appearance of a red sword in Austin's hand, his Violet Royal Sword.
Dozens of sword lights appeared as quick as lightning, each containing sword intent as well as powerful killing intent.
These sword lights all contained Austin’s vital energy force. He had scattered his strength by splitting his vital energy into dozens of pieces and attached each piece to a sword light. It wasn't as powerful as the strength he had gathered to a point. But each piece was powerful enough to kill members of the Li Clan.
