I Am The Young Master-Chapter 127 - Han Junxiong and Han Junhui

(A/N:? Update: Read the chapter as it is edited now!

Today we had a product launch and I'm kind of the CTO of the company so I was busy af. Anyway, I'll edit this chapter later so you won't lose coins even if you have unlocked it as I have to upload the new one with the same length otherwise WebNovel wouldn't let me. Sorry about this but you will get two chapters tomorrow so nothing would change really. The rest of the chapter is a copy of the previous one so that I can update it tomorrow so don't mind it.)

——(POV Li Huang, Sky Pillar sect's tent)——

There are some things that are fundamental to every intelligent organism in the world and almost all of them are stemmed from necessity; the necessity of survival created the need to eat, the need to sleep, and so on.

Now one of those fundamental principles was pressuring me to act and act fast. The years of human survival and evolution created an instinct to sense a danger that is far too great to contend, a danger that no matter how you struggle or the trump cards that you used, you were destined to grovel in front of it as you were nothing but an ant.

This was one such moment for me. My instincts screamed to me to run, to flee despite the fact that I didn't have anything that would pin this anger at me but being here, the possibility that it was pointed at me directly still was something that I couldn't ignore.

I nearly took a step back despite myself. The only thing that stopped me from doing so was my will. Yes, the iron will that would not bend against anyone or anything.

…Who am I kidding? Of course, I wasn't stupid enough to let myself be carried away by something as idiotic as unbending will. Doing so would only prove that I am nothing better than someone like Jin Fen who didn't care what the situation entailed and would act as blind as a bat. I wasn't that naive to think that I had some power that would let me come out relatively unscathed from any and every situation.

But I still didn't move an inch as I was sure that I can come out of any situation at the very least alive.

Why? Because I was sure that even someone like Han Junxiong would not dare kill me because of who I am. A chief disciple of one of the holy land and a heir to Li family is not something to scoff at. There weren't many people that would dare to do so and even fewer who would dare do so openly as the backlash wouldn't be something that can be handled easily.

But I also didn't want to just get out of this alive as I wouldn't let myself be defenseless in any situation so I of course have contingency plans for this meeting. If I didn't have such a plan I wouldn't come here alone.

First, I have the teleportation ring that would let me get out of here. Although a sect's tent is usually teleport-proof but the meeting room is different as it is always guarded and no one can enter it without having to gain permission and now that I am inside I can teleport in and out of this place easily. I really would love to take credit for figuring this out but I had used the [Peeping eye of heaven] on the way to check the formation of this tent and I can say with 99% percent certainty that I can at the very least teleport out of this place.

The experience that I have gained in this past month on the formations can prove crucial in the future. I can see how helpful it can be when is combined with the [Peeping eye of heaven] that can help me discern the formation with ease and minimal efforts.

Second, I had given one of those stupid [Rings of trust] to Hu Anjing when we were on that last fight of the trial so that it would give us an edge if it came to that. This ring would teleport you to the other ring's location when you are in fatal danger and if Han Junxiong were to have the smallest intentions of attacking me, I can say that I am definitely in such a danger.

But you have to know that almost nothing is certain. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

These two would be helpful for me if that 1 percent didn't stop me. If this room didn't let me teleport, these rings would be only some decorative rings and wouldn't have any use to me so my last plan was to use the [Mirror of Reckoning] to alert grandpa Long so that he can come and help me. When he get the message that I used the mirror I am sure that he could rush here as there is no reason for me to use the mirror other than when I am in real danger.

Well, these are just plans and I would much rather that Han Junxiong wouldn't have any thoughts about attacking me.

——(POV third person)——

Taking a deep breath Li Huang looked at Han Junxiong's face and what he saw wasn't what he expected.

Han Junxiong had a look of someone who could burst out crying any moment now. He didn't shout to everyone to get out so that he can confront Li Huang or anything of that manor, he told them to get out so that even if he were to cry he wouldn't lose face in front of the elders of his Sky Pillar sect.

"Do you have anything of my brother?" Han Junxiong said. He wasn't stupid and he knew that Li Huang must have found something belonging to his brother when he came to see him and he was anxious about what he found in there.

Li Huang now confirmed that he wasn't in any trouble so he relaxed a little but not completely as he didn't want to get deceived by this if it was an act.

"Yes." Li Huang said and without saying anything else he retrieved Han Junhui's body from his storage ring and put it on a bed that he also took from his storage ring. He didn't want to disrespect the deceased by putting the body on a table or worse on the floor.

Seeing this patriarch of the Sky Pillar sect, Han Junxiong couldn't stay still anymore and rushed to his twin's body and touched his brother's face as he was bawling his eyes out.

"Brother." Han Junxiong said as he couldn't believe that after all these years he could see his brother again.

Li Huang who was seeing this familial love couldn't stop his mind from wandering toward his own parents, who he didn't get to know much but was sure of one thing and that was the fact that they loved him.

As Li Huang was thinking about this and was looking at Han Junxiong who was crying, he couldn't help but smile a little as he felt that this was worth it, even if it only was for this moment as he could see the brotherly affection between Han Junxiong and Han Junhui. He would see that it was like a weight was lifted from Han Junxiong's chest after all these years.

While Li Huang was seeing this wholesome situation, Han Junxiong was still crying and he suddenly started laughing while crying. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢

"HAHAHA, Junhui, you goddamn bastard, HAHAHA." He said as he punched his brother's bed a couple of times.

Li Huang who was smiling could feel his smile turn stiff as he heard this. He couldn't understand what was going on. How did Han Junxiong go from crying to laughing and crying while cursing his late brother?

Unfortunately for Li Huang, Han Junxiong didn't give him time to figure this out as he throw the next insult at his brother.

"You couldn't even die like a normal person, HAHAHA." Han Junxiong said and wiped his tears.

Li Huang couldn't keep his professional expression anymore as his mouth was open when he heard this.

'Thi—This Han Junxiong is crazy!' Li Huang thought as this was the only conclusion that he could come up with. If he wasn't crazy what could make him go through these mood swings?

Li Huang who now only wanted to get out of here and didn't give a shit about any brownie points was looking for an excuse to get out of there when Han Junxiong stood and looked at him.

"HAHAHA, Li Huang, from this day on you are a brother to me!" Han Junxiong said and the joy was evident in his voice.

Li Huang who heard this could only stiffly smile.

'What brother? Are you going to laugh at my corpse too?' Li Huang said in his mind as he was really thinking that maybe he should have just pocketed the corpse's belongings and left the body there, at least that way this crazy Han Junxiong wouldn't call him his brother!
