Chapter 9: Piece of Trash?

"Xiao Che, Congratulation on your wedding."

Yun Che snapped from his daze. He was looking at the source of the trash talk, and he smiled. The opportunity he waits for is here.

"Well, now, thank you! I seemed to draw a winning lottery. Glad the kid decided to show up." He mocked, knowing the man in front of him was Xiao Yulong alongside his accomplice, Xiao Yang.

"Xiao Che, you seemed to be full of yourself. You became the talk of the city. The cripple who married the phoenix of our city. It makes me wonder, what qualifies you to marry Xia Qingyue?" Xiao Yulong spoke with a hint of venom as he stepped on the stage before him. The one schemed to murder him.

"Dude, I am married to her. Qualifications? Doesn't it matter anymore?" Yun Che spoke with a flat look.

Slamming his hand on the table, Xiao Yulong pointed to his face. "You seemed didn't the position you're in, trash." Everyone from the manor stops immediately to see the commotion. What is interesting is that no elder or servant tries to stop him. It is like the whole city planned this. Every person who is jealous of Yun Che smirks when hearing this.

"Xiao Che, I admit I was jealous of you for marrying Xia Qingyue. Would you agree if I challenge you to a duel?" Xiao Yulang said while still pointing at him.

"Sigh*. What makes you think I am stupid enough to accept it?"

"So, you're afraid of me? A cripple like you wanted to protect this beauty? Do you think everyone here is going to like you? Look at all of them. They're not laughing to celebrate you. They're laughing at you!"

Yun Che looked around while raising his eyebrow. Every people's expression was indeed funny. "Well, you are right about it."

"You're an embarrassment to all of us. A flower like Xia Qingyue doesn't deserve to be with a pig like you."

"BRAZEN!!!!" Uncle Xia tries to intervene, but an elder from the Xiao Clan stops him.

"Hongyi, this is the matter of the young. We don't have the right to interfere. The elder smiled creepily. But as Xia Hongyi tries to move, another elder blocks him and says the same thing. Even Xiao Elders suddenly jumped and stopped whoever attempted to assist him. This time, no one is ridiculing Yun Che for being bullied by the strong. Every young generation out there started to shout things like….

"Defeat that trash."

"Claim back our city's pride…."

"Know your place, trash!!"

Yun Che still kept a relaxed expression as he heard people began ridiculing him. "So this is the world of ATG."

The wedding had turned disastrous. It wasn't the plan Xiao Lie and Uncle Xia had imagined. Months of planning, but because of this, Xiao Yulong, everything went down the drain. When he tried to save his grandson, other elders immediately blocked him. Lingxi started to cry because his Little Che was bullied, and she could have done nothing.

Xia Qingyue was shocked that her wedding turned out like this. She felt ashamed that her husband was challenged and knew he couldn't fight back. If Yun Che refused, they would be a laughingstock in the city. Her family will be humiliated, and her husband will perish mysteriously one day.

If she helped him, her husband would be branded as a coward hiding behind his wife, which was the outcome precisely what the elders of both clan and the city wanted.

She felt nothing for him because the wedding was a promised marriage between his father and hers. She was grateful to the former for risking himself to save her. She even planned for him to find a concubine to replace her. Since the promise was fulfilled, she can ask this Yun Che to do so. She wanted to focus on cultivation instead of settling down. Marriage was considered a burden for her; calling it off was the only way she could concentrate. She had her own goal, and marriage wasn't one of them. Since she was trained to have a cold heart, love was not one of the emotions she has right now.

Of course, she won't leave him in front of these people.

She understands the value of status. She married an ordinary person means spelling trouble to her clan. If she's married to a cripple, she wouldn't mind as long as she could cultivate. She was forbidden to be married because of her cultivation sect. She agreed with her sect that she only did this for her father and his promise. Even her sect ordered her husband killed if she was touched physically by him.

She turned towards him. She was impressed that instead of looking at a panicked or angered Xiao Che, she saw a relatively relaxed version of him as if he wasn't registering any of this. Was he always this composed?

The city and the clan ridiculed him, but Yun Che felt nothing. Be it anger or sadness. He was excited because he was waiting for a chance to fuck things up.

"Challenging a cripple to a life and death and no one willing to stand up to me. This city does hate me." He silently thought about the situation.

Xiao Yulang will not be ridiculed because the Xiao Clan was prominent in the city. They are the law because only the strongest have the will to rule. He was weak, it might be unfair for the weak, but this is how Profound Sky Continent works. The strong consumed the weak.

Some of the weaker people go with the flow. They just silently sent him condolences, and younger generations laughed at him. His elders didn't do anything to protect him. Xiao Yulang may be brazen but only gets simple punishment if all this is over.

Do you dare?!? Xiao Che?!? Xiao Yulang shouted once more.

Yun Che looked at Xia Qingyue and saw a face and eyes devoid of emotions. He sighed in his heart. Xia Qingyue did not even care. When all this is over, she'll return with her master to Frozen Cloud Asgard, while he will continuously be mocked even if he survives. Even if she could protect him, his fate was sealed when she returned.

"Hmph, I am not Xiao Che. I am Yun Che." He smirks.

Opportunity comes to those who wait.

"Look, dude…. I am not in a good mood at all. Can we do this another day? I just wanted to get home and get some sleep."

"So you don't dare to fight me?!?"

"Sigh…. Fine, I go along with your crap." He said while scratching his cheek. Everybody laughed when he accepted the fight, thinking of him just playing the hero in front of his new wife.

"Looks like the trash is not a coward after all." Xiao Yulang stepped on the stage.

"I'll let you make your moves. Come, I will not fight back. Who knows, maybe you will manage to put a scratch on me." Xiao Yulang continuously mocked him. Even if he has the cultivation of Fourth level Elementary Profound Realm, it was hard for ordinary people to injure him.

Xia Yuanba gritted his teeth, an Elder restrained him, and he could do nothing. His brother-in-law was his hero, and his duty was to protect him and his sister. When this happened, he knew what it meant to be a weakling.

Xia Qingyue, on the other hand, was shocked. When Yun Che accepted the dare, she did not feel any anger or fear from him. It's like he was prepared for it. She was shocked to see him smile even after all of this.

Yun Che steps forward to the centre of the stage. Since everyone knew the outcome, they did not laugh but watched how Yulong would mop the floor with Yun Che's ass. Xiao Lingxi was trying her best, but the elders were too strong. Even his grandfather couldn't do anything because even if he's the strongest but if the elders join forces to suppress him, he's a sitting duck.

Yun Che stands on stage. His body is devoid of any aura because he has a disability.

Lastly, he wanted to have a say before he made his show. Most people think he has a death wish.

"Ehem…What happens if I win?" Yun Che casually asked. The manor was silent just for a moment until…..

"Hahahahahhaha…"

"The trash thinks he can win… It is the best joke I heard in years."

"Hahaha…this is so funny…I haven't had a good laugh in forever."

"Hahahaha, if he wins, I'll eat shit daily."

"Forget that. I'll marry my donkey if that happens."

"Oh no, I'll strip naked and run hundred times around the city."

People around the manor laughed and made ridiculous bets if he had won this fight. As for Xiao Yulong, he was rolling on the floor laughing.

"Haha…You …sure..know…HAHA..how to make a dying wish cousin…." He said while still laughing.

"Tell you what, the clan wishes to grant any wish you had. Any fucking wish. All of them will be granted." Xiao Yulang emphasizes the last word. As he laughed, Yun Che was laughing crazily inside. Hoyuu was excited, and even Ossan had a smile on his face.

"That seals everything then." Yun Che said fearlessly.

"Hmphh…Piece of trash, let's begin..or are you afraid to move.." Xiao Yulong mocked him again.

Yun Che just smiled, and people started to think he was crazy. He stood still until he muttered a few words.

"System, initiate Shinigami Mode."
