Ye Kang also raised his head slightly and looked at Xie Jinghong with a smile.

Sure enough, this guy appears indifferent and aloof, but in reality, he's just arrogant. Once he gets a shrew in his eyes, he can't hold back at all.

Ye Kang said calmly, "Sixth Young Master, what are you doing? Everyone is listening attentively to the zither. Your noise is disturbing their enjoyment."

Xie Jinghong ignored him and walked to the front of the stage, staring at Miss Wanyi.

"Wanyi, I wish to marry you. Will you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the room gaped, wondering if they had misheard.

That's Xie's most dazzling sixth young master!

With exceptional talent and a distinguished background, it's safe to say that becoming the new head of the Xie family is a foregone conclusion.

But this kind of person actually said he wanted to marry a prostitute!

Note that it is about marrying a wife, not taking a concubine.

The difference between "wife" and "concubine" is only one word, but the meanings are worlds apart!

If you simply want to take Wanyi as a concubine, no one will say anything. After all, it's normal for someone with money and power to take a few concubines.

Wasn't the concubine of the Lord of Jiayang City a courtesan with unparalleled beauty?

Who has ever uttered a single sarcastic remark?

Instead, it will be passed down as a beautiful story of fireworks.

However, marrying her as a principal wife was absolutely unacceptable under the law and morality of that era.

The principal wife is the matriarch of the family, and the marriage should at least be between equals and be conducted through proper channels.

Xie Jinghong's words, on the surface, were an expression of his inner love, but in reality, he was putting Wanyi in a very difficult position.

The Xie family would not allow him to marry a prostitute, but they also wouldn't actually kick him out of the house.

What should I do?

There is only one answer.

If you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who caused it.

It's safe to say that if this matter isn't handled properly today, Xie Liancheng will make sure Wan Yi disappears forever as quickly as possible.

Sure enough, at this moment, everyone's expression changed drastically, and even Wan Yi frowned.

The female owner of the brothel rushed out and laughed, "Sixth Young Master, this joke is too much! Our Wanyi is just a mere actress who plays the zither and sings. How could she be worthy of your elegance? This is a huge joke!"

"I'm not kidding."

Xie Jinghong, as if she couldn't understand human speech, emphasized again with a cold face.

Ye Kang, who was sitting to the side, had a strange expression on his face.

Why does this guy seem like a spoiled little child?

After thinking about it, it seems normal.

People who have been treated as the pride of heaven since childhood are used to being submissive to those around them and have no regard for worldly rules and regulations.

But this is not something that can be resolved with a simple joke.

Ye Kang glanced at Wan Yi, who was frowning, and knew it was his turn to step in.

After all, I made a promise to someone. If I leave it unattended and my mind is not clear, it will be harmful to my martial arts practice.

Ye Kang said seriously, "Xie Jinghong, think before you speak. If it weren't for my uncle's request, I would have slapped you and sent you home long ago."

Wow!

Everyone was shocked again.

Xie Jinghong had already made some startling remarks, but Ye Kang's words were even more astonishing.

Everyone was thinking, "Who the hell is this guy?"

Why are you talking so arrogantly?

Don't you know Xie Jinghong's identity and strength?

Someone nearby kindly reminded him, "Brother, watch your words. Don't spout nonsense just because you're good at fighting."

"That's right, what's the use of being able to fight? In this world, you need connections and influence!"

There were also several younger members of the Xie family who had come to stop Xie Jinghong from killing people, and now they were forced to stand up and block Ye Kang.

"Ye Kang! Get out! You have no right to speak here!"

They cursed Ye Kang while making faces at each other.

The meaning was clear: Ye Kang should leave quickly, or it would be too late.

Xie Jinghong really is capable of killing!

However, Ye Kang acted as if he hadn't seen it and continued, "Xie Jinghong, can't you understand human language? Didn't I say you're not allowed to bother Miss Wanyi again?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the younger members of the Xie family realized they were done for and quickly looked at Xie Jinghong.

Sure enough, the sixth young master's face had turned completely frosty, his entire face radiating a murderous chill.

He stared intently at Ye Kang and said, word by word, "I've tolerated you time and time again. Do you really think that because of your mother's status, I wouldn't dare to kill you?"

Having said that, his icy true energy erupted completely, filling the entire hall.

Everyone shuddered, as if they had been transported to the dead of winter.

"This is... the Frost Sword Intent!"

"By the way, Xie Jinghong practices the Frost Sword Manual, the martial art that made the Xie family's ancestor famous! He has actually reached such a level!"

"Fifth-rank Innate Realm! It's fifth-rank! How is this possible? How could someone so young reach such a level!"

Everyone gasped, feeling as if their worldview had collapsed.

There is no shortage of martial arts prodigies in this world, but Xie Jinghong reached the fifth-grade innate level before he was even twenty years old, a realm that many martial artists cannot reach even after a lifetime of hard work.

This is truly a genius among geniuses!

Given time, this child will surely surpass his teacher!

No wonder the Xie family values ​​him so much; they are clearly raising him as the son of the Xie family's great prosperity!

At that moment, everyone retreated in unison, and many people rushed outside, only daring to secretly watch from a distance.

Swordsmen are the most ruthless, especially those who have mastered the Frost Sword Manual, a supreme sword technique. Who can guarantee that they won't be killed by him with a single stroke!

Soon, only Ye Kang was still facing Xie Jinghong.

He nodded.

"No wonder, he truly deserves to be called a genius."

"Young Master Ye, why don't you leave first?"

At this moment, even Wan Yi felt a little scared.

She had some connections and knew that Ye Kang was very strong.

But unexpectedly, Xie Jinghong had reached such a level, making Ye Kang's strength seem somewhat inadequate.

However, at this point, Xie Jinghong would no longer give Ye Kang a chance to leave.

With a casual flick of his wrist, a wisp of icy sword energy formed a long, slender ice sword.

“You have insulted me time and time again, so you deserve this calamity. I will spare you my sword to teach you a lesson.”

Xie Jinghong casually slashed down, his eyes showing no killing intent, but his aura was astonishing, clearly aimed at the seriously injured Ye Kang.

The girls in the brothel all covered their mouths and closed their eyes, unable to bear watching any longer.

The next second, the ice sword slashed down, accompanied by the sound of frost cracking.

Ye Kang stepped out, casually slapped the ice sword, shattering it, and then raised his palm again.

"Snapped!"

A crisp slap landed on Xie Jinghong's face.

Its force was so great that it could shake mountains and shatter rocks.

Boom!

Xie Jinghong instantly lost consciousness, swung around in the air more than a dozen times, smashing countless railings and tables and chairs, before finally falling into the debris, unconscious.

This all happened far too fast.

Almost no one saw what happened; they only saw Ye Kang raise his hand and Xie Jinghong fly out.

Xie Jinghong was completely caught off guard by such a simple attack!

What a joke!

Ye Kang clapped his hands and casually said, "You're really stubborn. I have to reason with you. Everyone, disperse."

He casually pulled out a silver note with a face value of one thousand taels and threw it on the ground: "Boss, this is to compensate you for your losses. He won't come back to cause trouble again."

After saying that, Ye Kang walked over, grabbed Xie Jinghong's calf, and dragged him out.

"This is boring. I still have to ask my uncle to make up for the ten thousand taels. I can't afford to lose money."
