720 He Was Being Really Lenient

(Yong Gong's Uncle POV)

I felt a little conflicted when I saw my nephew challenge the boy to a duel.

The Ancestor Phoenix might have endorsed this boy but if the boy himself accepted an official duel, then even it cannot complain about the results of such a duel.

This boy should know that fact and if he had some sense he would reject the duel.

If he did, it might save him from being crippled but that would also invalidate the bet between them.

The boy tilted his head at my nephew, "Why should I accept this duel? You made a bet and now you're not willing to pay up so you want to beat me to get out of it? Is that how you do things? If I borrow money from you but beat you up, that means I don't need to return it, right?"

"This and that are two different things!" Yong Gong protested.

"Different? How is it different? They're both agreements that were rendered null because you simply beat the other party up. Am I wrong?"
