Super Gene Hunting Ground

Xie Dong instantly understood, Yang Xiao came with Gong Yu to seek revenge on him.

He was not afraid of Yang Xiao and Gong Yu; with his current breakthrough to the High-Level Enhanced Gene Realm, he felt he could easily crush both of them. However, what he didn't understand was why Du Tianwang seemed involved in this matter.

What does Du Tianwang mean?

Xie Dong looked at Yang Xiao and Gong Yu, sneered, and said:

"Gong Yu, I spared your life last time. Have you brought reinforcements to seek revenge on me this time?"

Beside him, Cai Heng was confused about the situation, casting a glance at Yang Xiao and Gong Yu.

He knew Gong Yu, a once talented individual from the Ice River Academy. He had also vaguely heard about why Xie Dong had chopped off one of his hands. But what did this have to do with Du Tianwang?

Did Du Tianxing coming to the Ice River Academy with a hundred Elite Guards and a hundred City Kings have anything to do with Gong Yu's matter?

Cai Heng turned his head towards Du Tianxing, asking:

"Boss, what's the situation? I don't quite understand."

Du Tianxing smiled faintly and said:

"I'm not very clear myself. Let's have my brother Yang Xiao explain; he is the King of both Nanmu City and Shanyun City."

Upon hearing that, Cai Heng looked towards Yang Xiao and saluted with his hands:

"So, it's the renowned Nanmu City King. I've long admired your reputation. May I know what this is all about? Cai would like to hear the details."

In his heart, Cai Heng might not truly regard Yang Xiao, the king of a small city, very highly. However, since Du Tianwang addressed Yang Xiao as a brother, he had to give due respect to Du Tianxing.

Yang Xiao saluted Cai Heng and said:

"Brother Cai, I'm very sorry to trouble you today. We've come to the Ice River Academy to seek justice for my brother, Gong Yu."

"Seek justice?"

"Yes, my brother Gong Yu had a conflict with Xie Dong. Xie Dong chopped off one of his hands. Perhaps my brother was not his equal in skill, but I cannot let Xie Dong off easily. Today, I am here to chop off both of Xie Dong's hands to avenge Gong Yu. This matter is a personal vendetta and does not involve Nanmu City and Magic City, nor is it against your Ice River Academy. I implore Brother Cai's understanding and tolerance."

Cai Heng was stunned. He looked at Yang Xiao, Gong Yu, and Xie Dong, and after a moment of thought, said:

"You want to chop off both of Xie Dong's hands?"

"Yes."

"Excuse my boldness, but may I ask what your current Genetic Evolution Level is?"

"Primary Level Enhanced Gene."

"Primary Level?"

Cai Heng chuckled, "Then, do you happen to know Xie Dong's Genetic Evolution Level?"

"I don't know, and there's no need to know."

Upon hearing this, Cai Heng thought to himself that this young man was indeed arrogant and unaware that he was courting death. However, he still owed it to Du Tianxing to show some respect.

"Brother Yang, Xie Dong has now reached the High-Level of Enhanced Gene. Are you sure you want to chop off his hands?"

"Of course, I have sworn to inflict double the suffering on anyone who harms my brother."

If it weren't for Du Tianxing being present, Cai Heng would have scolded Yang Xiao on the spot for his naivety.

"Hehe, well, Brother Yang, your courage is commendable. Let me propose this: since Gong Yu and Xie Dong have a personal grudge and Gong Yu was injured, I would normally not intervene. However, since Du Tianwang is here, I still have to respect the boss's presence. I'll have Xie Dong publicly apologize to Gong Yu and then, Ice River Academy will guarantee that within 2 years, we will elevate Gong Yu to the High-Level Enhanced Gene. Would that be satisfactory to you, Brother Yang?"

Under normal circumstances, this solution from Cai Heng was already more than generous.

Meanwhile, Xie Dong was fuming, but he refrained from causing a scene due to Du Tianxing's presence.

Du Tianxing looked at Yang Xiao, indicating that he should take the good result and stop there, as the outcome was already not bad since Gong Yu's hand couldn't be regenerated.

Even Gu Beifeng next to him hinted at Yang Xiao with a look to let things be, as such incidents were difficult for others to intervene. If Yang Xiao really fought Xie Dong, he would undoubtedly lose.

Everyone felt that this outcome was acceptable, even Gong Yu said to Yang Xiao:

"Yang Xiao, let it go, just leave the matter as it is."

Although Gong Yu hated Xie Dong very much inside, he wanted to avoid seeing Yang Xiao defeated and humiliated by Xie Dong in public; therefore, he decided to accept this settlement result.

Xie Dong, standing nearby, said lightly to Yang Xiao:

"Yang Xiao, I'm giving you face because of Du Tianwang, otherwise, hmph."

"Hmph? Your freaking hmph!"

Yang Xiao immediately burst out shouting.

Xie Dong was stunned, "Yang Xiao, are you cursing?"

"Damn right, I cursed you! So what? You harmed my brother and made him lose a hand. What's wrong with cursing you? You think by admitting your fault and apologizing, I would let you go? Keep dreaming."

Xie Dong was not a weakling, he immediately said fiercely:

"Come on, you think I'm afraid of you? Just now, I was giving face to our boss and Du Tianwang. Since you're being ungrateful, let me teach you a lesson, make you learn some manners. City King of Nanmu City, a big freaking deal! If you're causing trouble in our Magic City, I'll make sure you won't leave in one piece."

The scene exploded instantly.

There were sighs from everyone.

Gu Beifeng and Du Tianxing looked at each other, both shaking their heads; wasn't Yang Xiao previously a quite rational and sharp-witted person? Why had he suddenly become so impulsive? It seemed their understanding of Yang Xiao might need some adjustment; a person like this would struggle to achieve greatness in the future.

Ouyang Cheng, Chi Lin, and others said regretfully:

"Ah, Yang Xiao went too far this time."

"Exactly, he should have just accepted the good outcome, why did he need to push for this?"

"If a fight really breaks out, Yang Xiao is definitely not his match. It would be embarrassing then."

...

Cai Heng had long been dissatisfied with Yang Xiao. He had given Yang Xiao an out, but he didn't take it and chose to be defiant, did he really think they at Ice River Academy were pushovers?

Hearing Xie Dong and Yang Xiao exchanging verbal jabs, Cai Heng decided not to interfere, thinking, let them fight; it will be quieter once they start.

Now was an era that revered brute force, where might made right.

Yang Xiao and Xie Dong then stood in the middle of the playground, on snowy ground, readying their stances.

"Yang Xiao, you are seeking your own death. Although Du Tianwang spoke for you today, I'm warning you before we start, blades and swords are blind. If you get hurt, like your arms or hands, don't go crying in front of Du Tianwang, making things difficult for him."

Xie Dong tauntingly challenged Yang Xiao.

Yang Xiao sneered back:

"Alright, this bout is a fight to the death. Regardless of win or loss, we stake our lives on it. No one else can intervene, do you agree?"

"I agree, I will make you utterly convinced of your defeat."

Du Tianwang was about to intervene when Gu Beifeng next to him stopped him, and whispered:

"Yang Xiao isn't reckless by nature. Since he is so determined, let's wait and see. If he gets into danger, it's not too late for us to step in."

"Sigh, it can't be helped, how did Yang Xiao become so impulsive all of a sudden? Impulsiveness is the devil!"
