Chapter 274 Chapter 274
"I have, on my own volition, faced a million different deaths and torment. No man, woman, or monster could make me cower and tuck my tails in submission. I fear that not even the devil himself could accomplish that feat."
Clark said and he knew that it was a bit heavy on the edgy side of the field but he cared not at all for his audience. He smiled and walked to welcome his first guests in this world.
'Did i hear Young Master Chen Yan correctly?!'
Ye Xia could not help but question what she heard thus far as she looked at the fat oversized body of her young master who was slowly vanishing before her eyes.

"You are not bad at all. Hmmm... Although I expected less but it's always good to be surprised also. Very very nice indeed."
Our bored complimented a particular woman once he opened the room to meet his visitors.
There were more than a dozen armed guards in cultivators robes but there was the same family insignia on their sleeves and back.
A hot red flame that depicted the prosperity of the Yang Clan. But what took Clark's attention more was the lovely young lady in the center of the group.
She was a beauty alright that could indeed be a match to one of his women back at home. About 20 or so in age. Alas, what only marred her perfection was the haughty look on her face.
This woman was not flattered at all by what our good gamer has said. She was instead abhorred by what she heard.
The lovely girl did not degrade herself further by giving our bored gamer a reply but not everyone could remain calm in the aftermath.
"You lazy trash fat pig! I thought that you died already!" One of the men from the Yang opened up in response. He was about to say more but was silenced by a single raise of a hand.
"Please apologize the behavior of my men, Young Master Chen Yan. It has been a hard time for our Yang Family lately."
An Elder of the Yang mitigated conflict back into a peaceful discussion once more. It was easy to see that this old man was indeed versed in matters like the one they were about to cover today.
"Ho ho ho! I heard that Miss Yang Guanyu is about to enter into the Golden Moonlight Sect. Congratulations should be in order. May you never forget our humble city of Fairhaven."
An Elder of the Chen Clan praised the lucky fortune of the Yang.
"You are too kind, Elder Chen Ping. This small lady will surely do her best in order to make Fairhaven proud for taking care of me after all these years."
Yang Guanyu, our bored gamer's fiancee in this new world, replied humbly. She was not only pretty but she also knew how to suck on the ego of her elders at this young age.
This girl will surely soar unto high places in her quest to power. Our bored gamer would have wanted to listen in more but that would only waste his time in consequence.
A precious resource that he would rather not waste in here.
"Why have you come? Were you perhaps going to break the engagement with a cold corpse today? It's funny that i happen to wake up fresh and healthy today."
Clark mocked the Yang group and has very much considered the fact that these people were the likely culprit behind the demise of the real Chen Yan.
Luckily for them, our bored gamer did not anymore hold any grudge for a man that was already long dead. He was here exactly for business and nothing else.
"..." The hot bloods of the Yang were forced to hold their tongues as they had no smart comeback to Clark's wily retort.
A few breaths passed and it was the same Elder from the Yang who broke this useless stalemate between the two parties.
"It is as you say, Young Master Chen Yan. We have indeed come to break our clan's Yang Guanyu and her engagement with you. Please allow our Young Miss to go to the Golden Moonlight Sect where her future would be as high as the bright blue skies."
The Yang Elder bowed deeply in his appeal. This was more than proof enough on how cunning and wise this Yang Elder was.
He was not arrogant but merely took a stance of humility in front of everyone. The Yang Clan was absolutely fortunate to have this old soul in their fold.
"Elder Yang Yan! You don't have to lower yourself down to the level of this pig!" Yang Guanyu exploded in a tirade of hurtful words.
If not for the Yang Patriarch's friendship with Chen Yan's grandfather, she would have never gotten engaged with this ugly fat excuse of a man to begin with.
And to think that there was almost a 15 year age gap between them. This was truly the perfect definition of a toad wanting to eat the meat of a swan.
"Child, you are still young. The honor of our Yang Family should take precedence above all. We are not oath breakers!"
Elder Yang Yan raised his voice towards Yang Guanyu at the end and looked at the sorry bunch of delinquent men around the young miss.
He had suspected that this same crew may have been responsible for the poison that almost claimed the life of this man Chen Yan.
Alas, Elder Yang Yan has chosen to turn a blind eye to this incident rather than dig dirt inside his own backyard.
The Elder was not yet senile to do damage to his own clan's reputation and name.
"PAK!"
"PAK!"
"PAK!" Three resounding claps released the tension in the air. Before long, everybody in the room was all looking at the source of this noise.
Towards the ordinary fat face of our bored gamer right now.
"I am a simple man. Since i have already heard the purpose of your visit then it would be almost cruel for me to reject." Our bored gamer started his ploy.
He smiled extravagantly in the next moment.
"Seeing that Miss Yang Guanyu shall have a bright future ahead of her in the revered halls of the Golden Moonlight Sect, i don't have the heart to steal that chance away from her. So I am willing to relinquish Miss Yang Guanyu and her obligation in this engagement... for a price."
Clark paused here for effect. Our good gamer believed that there would be a question thrown his way after this delay.
"How much?" Elder Yang Yan was the first one to recover and he has not disappointed our avid gamer in the least.
"Ohhh... not much. I only want ten thousand Pure Qi Stones in exchange." Clark replied and...
"BANG!" Almost every jaw was hanging in strange funny ways after our bored gamer's hefty price tag.
"You must be dreaming, fool!"
"Our Yang Family won't give you that much Pure Qi Stones!"
"Keep dreaming you stupid fatty!" The rowdy men of the Yang Clan exclaimed as they found our protagonist's demand way too steep a price to pay. It was simply ridiculous to say the least!
