“What? We can't do this!” someone shouted.
Everyone in the Chu family was shocked to hear what Chu Yuan said.
Chu Shen, whom Ye Fan had beaten to the verge of death, suddenly crawled up from the floor and rushed to Chu Yuan.
“No, you can't do this. The Chu family is one of the most prominent families in the world. How can we bow and apologize to these country bumpkins? How can we keep our heads up in the martial arts world if we apologize? If the words spread, we would be a laughingstock!” Chu Shen protested urgently and tried to stop Chu Yuan.
Before this, when Chu Zhengliang had fallen, Chu Shen and the other members of the Chu family discussed whether to honor the bet and apologize to Ye Fan and his mother.
After a discussion, the whole family refused to honor the bet. Instead, they gathered all their forces to kill Ye Fan.
Then, Ye Fan nearly exterminated everyone in the Chu family. Fortunately forthem, Patriarch Chu came out to save them.
The situation was now favoring them. Yet, Chu Yuan decided to honor the bet and agree to Ye Fan's request. It meant that the whole family had to go to China to apologize to Ye Fan's mother.
The Chu family could not understand his decision and found it unacceptable.
“We are already a laughingstock, thanks to you useless lot. You have lost, so how dare you refuse to honor the bet? What's wrong with you all? You are too weak to fight him, so why are you declaring war against him? Since you dared to bet, you have to accept your defeat. People will look down on us if you keep breaking your promise. Our ancestors were known fortheir righteousness. You are bringing shame to them!” Chu Yuan scolded with a pained expression.
Chu Shen understood what Chu Yuan said, but he still refused to back down.
“But Patriarch Chu, we would be humiliated no matter what we do. However, isn't it much better to refuse to honor the bet than having to get down on our knees and apologize? We should choose the lesser of two harms! Furthermore, if we killed this b*stard, the bet shall no longer exist. Then, we won't be breaking any promise,” Chu Shen argued.
The other members of the Chu family still refused to go to China and apologize to Ye Fan and his mother. They preferred to break their promise than humble themselves.
Chu Yuan sneered and shouted, “Sure, if you want to kill him, go kill him if you dare. Chu Tianfan is standing right there. Whoever among you succeeds in killing him shall be the next head of the family!”
Everyone in the Chu family immediately looked down at their feet.
After all, except for Chu Yuan, Ye Fan had defeated everyone here.
Judging from the situation, if Chu Yuan refused to help, no one in the Chu family could defeat Ye Fan.
“Why have you all become mute now? Have you finally realized how weak you all are? In that case, all of you should shut up and stop embarrassing me!” Chu Yuan shouted furiously.
He was boiling with anger over his family members.
What a bunch of good-for-nothings. They are useless, and yet they think so highly of themselves.
Chu Yuan wished that he could kill Ye Fan too.
However, they had no other options in their present situation.
Furthermore, Ye Fan had made it clear. If the Chu family refused to fulfill their promise, he would kill them.
If it were only Ye Fan, Chu Yuan would not be afraid of his threat. Ye Fan had exhausted himself. Moreover, Chu Yuan did not fear him even when he was in his best condition.
However, Ye Fan was backed by the Moon God.
If the Chu family battled Ye Fan again, Chu Yuan knew he would be fighting with the Moon God.
Then, Ye Fan would be free to slaughter the rest of the Chu family.
Everyone in the Chu family would be dead before he could defeat the Moon God.
Furthermore, Tang Yun would not let Chu Sect get involved in the fight between the Chu family and Ye Fan. Thus, Chu Yuan had no choice but to admit defeat.
Ye Fan laughed after hearing what Chu Yuan said, “Good. It seems that an old b*stard like you still has some sense.”
“You...” Chu Yuan nearly burst a vessel when he heard Ye Fan calling him an old b*stard.
