Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains-Chapter 617 - 282. Splitting the Land to Establish Territory, Famous in All Directions (Part 5)_3
"Good, Sect Master Yan, you indeed have courage!"
With his superior stance, Hou Yuxiao's words sounded like a compliment to someone junior, laden with mockery that ignited a nameless rage in the three-hundred-year-old Yan Sandong.
Yet he knew he was no match for Hou Yuxiao and, given that he was at fault from the beginning, he could only suppress his anger and gestured a slight bow in acknowledgement.

"Yan Sandong, it seems that this old man has uncovered the connection between the Qinglong Association and the Hou Clan, issuing an open challenge when in reality, he seeks vengeance!"
Upon hearing the name Yan Sandong, Hou Yuxiao immediately recalled the turmoil in Tongling three years prior when, as the Dragon Head of the Qinglong Association, he had taken the life of the Deputy Sect Master of the Yinsha Sect at Shengxin Residence. While the others clearly didn't want to step forward, Yan Sandong had been eager to thrust himself into the limelight.
Clearly, this man must have guessed the relationship between the Qinglong Association and the Hou Clan and sought revenge for his brother, Yan Sannu...
"Madam San, you sure there's no problem?"
Hou Yuxiao turned his head to look at Hou Yuling and asked with a light chuckle.
This inquiry also drew the attention of everyone present. The crowd was eager to see her reaction. Madam Hou San rarely made a move in front of outsiders; by all accounts, her cultivation was at most on the level of Grandmaster Third Realm. Facing Yan Sandong, a long-established Heavenly Great Grandmaster, it seemed unlikely she could win, and to refuse would have been the most logical.
"Don't worry, big brother, killing an old dog won't take too long!"
These five of the Hou Family really outdid each other in arrogance...
Who would have thought that Hou Yuling, clad in a purple dress and of stunning beauty, could be so brazen, and going as far as calling Yan Sandong an "old dog," which left everyone present feeling a sense of absurdity while also truly experiencing the extent of the Hou siblings' arrogance.
While others simply found it absurd, Yan Sandong, humiliated before nearly a hundred first-class forces of the four mansions, felt his aged face flush crimson. He had been roaming the martial world long before Hou Yuling was known, and yet she dared to call him an old dog...
"You..."
"Hmm?"
Yan Sandong only got out the word "you" before he was interrupted by Hou Yuxiao, who was sitting in a higher position. Yan Sandong shuddered and forcibly held back the words "cheap wench" he was about to utter.
This was too much bullying...
With no outlet for his fury, Yan Sandong looked at Wan Renjue and the other three, his intention obvious without words.
Even before the fight had started, with Hou Yuxiao being so protective of his kin, not allowing even a word of insult, what good would it do him if he were to win the actual fight?
"Don't worry. With the four of us overseeing, if you truly win, I'm sure the Master of Hou Family will not make things difficult for you, especially since these rules were proposed by him!"
"Exactly, I, Duan Hong, have always enjoyed a good fight. Anyone who dares not to abide by the arena's rules will have to forgive me for turning hostile and cutting ties," said another.
Ying Ning'er and Yuan Tiecheng, although they remained silent, both nodded in agreement. Their stance spoke volumes, with all four leaders of the first-class forces on his side, Yan Sandong felt his courage restored.
As long as he emerged victorious, Hou Yuxiao wouldn't dare do anything to him...
He could also seek vengeance for Sannu!
He entirely missed the mocking glint in Hou Yuxiao's eyes.
To be more precise, seeing the stance of Wan Renjue and the others, not a trace of worry showed on Hou Yuxiao's face. Instead, a faint flicker of... a murderous intent appeared in his pupils.
"Since that's the case, then let's begin!"
Hou Yuling lightly leaped onto the stage, wielding a blood-red whip in her hand, looking at Yan Sannu who followed up. Her bewitching eyes gradually filled with killing intent.
"You think I'm the easiest to deal with, am I right?"
