Chapter 301: Have you mistaken me for someone else? (Part 3)
Translator: 549690339
Yang Zhen looked bewildered at the City Master of Ice Martial City and asked in surprise, “Um… fellow villager, you wouldn’t happen to be mistaking me for someone else, would you?”
Fellow… fellow villager?
Everyone around them was stunned, petrified into being a terracotta army with their mouths open after hearing this address.
Yang Jiang wore the same bewildered expression, exchanging a glance with Aunt Lian, her confusion even greater. After hearing Yang Zhen’s address to the City Master of Ice Martial City, she was utterly shocked and promptly tugged at Yang Zhen’s sleeve.
The City Master of Ice Martial City was similarly rooted to the spot and said, “Are you Yang Zhen, ‘Despicable Yang’, ‘YangBapi’, disciple of the Dirty Detachment Gang?”
As soon as this string of addresses left his lips, everyone sucked in a breath, on the verge of bursting into laughter. They stared wide-eyed at Yang Zhen, their expressions growing more amusing by the second.
‘Despicable Yang’, ‘Yang Bapi’, disciple of the Dirty Detachment Gang?” Han Yan’er muttered to herself, a smile tugging at the corners of her mouth. She dazedly said, “What a crappy title.”
Yet Yang Zhen burst into hearty laughter. He grabbed the hand of the City Master of Ice Martial City and said, “Precisely, precisely! So, it was a fellow villager after all. But… I don’t seem to recognize you.”
Hearing Yang Zhen spout such absurd words, everyone’s eyes started to twitch.
Regardless of whether you recognize the City Master or not, since the City Master recognized you and was so congenial, you could’ve just played along! If the City Master truly did mistake you for somebody else, it would indeed be helpless but since he had called you by all your titles, he obviously hadn’t mistaken you for someone else. Yet in such circumstances, you remained so ‘honest’ and said something that would cause embarrassment for both of you?
Yang Jiang was practically pulling her hair out on the side. Seeing the puzzled look on Yang Zhen’s face, she desperately wished she could pinch his face and squeeze a smile out of him.
Everyone wore a stunned expression as they looked at Yang Zhen, unable to tell whether to laugh or cry at Yang Zhen’s unyielding honesty.
Sure enough, the old muscles on the City Master’s face twitched incessantly, his smile gradually fading. Just when everyone’s hearts started to race, the City Master forced a smile and said, “Haha, it’s okay if you don’t know me. You can get to know each other with time. Young friend Yang, do you know Mo Xueling, the heir of Ink Pool Peak?”
Upon hearing the name ‘Mo Xueling’, everyone present sucked in a breath. Especially the people of the Han Family who exchanged glances before Han Jingtian took a deep breath. He looked profoundly at Yang Zhen and said with some trepidation, “Thank goodness I didn’t offend Yang Zhen on an impulse. I didn’t expect that young Yang Zhen would have a connection with the heir of Ink Pool Peak.”
With a strange look on her face, Han Yan’er turned to Yang Zhen and was about to say something when Han Jingtian suddenly turned around and said seriously to Han Yan’er, “Yan’er, you’ll be going to practice in Ink Pool Peak in a few days. Spend some time interacting with Yang Zhen.”
Upon hearing this, Han Yan’er froze for a moment, showing a bit of reluctance on her face. But remembering something, she nodded her head and said, “Okay!”
Satisfied, Han Jingtian nodded his head. Suddenly bursting out into hearty laughter, after catching everyone’s attention, he strode towards Yang Zhen and the City Master of Ice Martial City.
“Oh…” Yang Zhen’s voice rang out: “I don’t know him!”
Hearing the words ‘I don’t know’ while still roaring with laughter, Han Jingtian almost stumbled and fell, looking at Yang Zhen in bewilderment.
Damn, you don’t know him?
This… is a bit awkward.
I was thinking about getting friendly with you and now you’re saying you don’t know him?
As the attention of most people was still on Han Jingtian, who had wanted to greet Yang Zhen, he was completely dumbfounded upon hearing the words ‘I don’t know’.
Nevertheless, Han Jingtian, being the venerable patriarch of the Han Family, managed to laugh it off after a moment of surprise. With a barely noticeable change in direction, he headed towards the City Master of Ice Martial City. With a loud voice, he said, “The City Master knows such a promising young talent as friend Yang, yet you didn’t tell this old man about him. Could it be that you look down upon me?”
The City Master of Ice Martial City, who had been left feeling headache by Yang Zhen’s antics, felt relieved to see Han Jingtian arrive. He laughed and said, “Not at all, not at all. How could I dare to forget about Elder Han?”
As he spoke, the master of Ice Martial City suddenly had an idea. He turned around and asked Yang Zhen, “Has young friend Yang ever met Flower Spirit Girl, or a cat that walks on two legs, or a chicken that’s always showing off?”
Yang Zhen’s eyes narrowed, a flash of joy in his eyes as he asked, “Has the City Master encountered them?”
Seeing Yang Zhen’s expression, the master of Ice Martial City exhaled in relief, laughing heartily and said boisterously, “More than that, they were guests at my mansion five days ago.”
“Oh?” Yang Zhen let out a smile and said jokingly, “Then they are my own people, my own people.”
Seeing Yang Zhen’s change of demeanor happen so quickly, the master of Ice Martial City was extremely pleased. He laughed and said, “If that’s the case, if young friend Yang doesn’t mind, please come with me to my mansion. I can also arrange everything for your trip to Northern Island. What do you think?” Yang Zhen looked interested, but he voiced out, “Would that be appropriate?” Seeing that Yang Zhen’s words didn’t match his expressions, the majority of the people around wanted to curse. Then they all understood why Yang Zhen had such an unusual nickname.
Despicable Yang… he truly was despicable!
“Young friend Yang, there’s no need to be so polite. Since you’re a friend of Miss Mo, you’re also a friend of all Ice Martial City. There’s no need to be polite with me.”
Yang Zhen laughed heartily and said, “Well then, I’ll have to bother the city master. But as a friend of Ice Martial City, I feel like I’m not living up to the title.”
Upon hearing that, the patriarch of the Fang Family’s face changed drastically. He wasn’t sure why, but seeing the look of anguish on Yang Zhen’s face sparked an intense feeling of unease in him.
As expected, the city master of Ice Martial City suddenly turned his gaze toward the Fang family. His face gradually became cold.
“Is young friend Yang referring to the Fang Family?” The master of Ice Martial City asked with a deep voice, clearly enraged.
Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat, and they looked at the city master with looks of surprise and uncertainty.
Ever since the city master of Ice Martial City had arrived, the development of events had taken an unexpected turn. Everyone had initially thought that the city master was alarmed by Yang Zhen’s outrageous behavior, intending to personally execute him as a deterrent to others.
But the city master’s sudden change in attitude not only surprised his most trusted Ice Martial Guard chief, but he was also very polite to Yang Zhen. Now, he was inviting Yang Zhen to his mansion, arranging for Yang Zhen’s visit to Northern Island, and it seemed like he was about to find trouble with the Fang Family?
This… could a simple young man who was familiar with the disciple of Ink Pool Peak really be more important than a noble family of Ice Martial City?
Seeing Yang Zhen nod, Yang Jiang and Hong Lian looked at each other, undeniably excited while tightly covering their mouths, yet unable to stop tears from flowing down their faces.
Yang Zhen was planning to stand up for them once more. How could they not be grateful for such a favor?
Seeing this, the master of Ice Martial City hummed coldly. He turned to Yang Jiang and asked in a deep voice, “Tell me, Yang girl, what exactly is going on?”
Only then did everyone realize something was off, and they looked at Yang Jiang with complicated expressions. Ever since Yang Zhen appeared, everyone had been focusing on him and had neglected the two Yang Family members, Yang Jiang and Hong Lian. But now such a massive commotion had broken out, and hardly any members of the Yang family had come, which was indeed very strange.
Did the Yang Family and Fang Family have some sort of conflict?
With this thought, everyone’s hearts skipped a beat, glancing hesitantly between Yang Zhen and the Fang Family.
Although things were becoming increasingly confusing, until that point, no one truly believed that the City Master of Ice Martial City would go against the Fang Family for someone like Yang Zhen.
