The Legend of Luo Yunyang

Take a Chance

"Director Wang of the Muara River Corporation personally wished the Master a happy birthday and gave the jade statue of Guanyin as a gift!"

"Vice Director Chen of the Long Castle Finance Group expects East Sea-wide happiness on Master. May you be blessed with a long life! This is a nephrite gemstone as a gift!"

"The wife of Deputy Chief Researcher Ma of the Dalui Research Institution came to replace her husband and gave a small bottle of muscle-boosting medicine to Master!"

...

The young men wearing beautiful clothes were indulging themselves in a luxurious life. The lives these people live are absurd. Whenever people from the common circle saw this, they felt like they were invited to take part in a big party with sumptuous food, good wine, and beautiful women. Everyone dressed neatly and walked in a relaxed style. The people with oil on their lips let out burps in satisfaction. They will all get a fancy marble tombstone when they die so they will never be forgotten.

There were also some people in this world who did not look like they were born from the womb of a woman. They looked like people who had escaped from prison. Their exhausting, helpless, and isolated lives have racked their brains and strained their senses. For these people, life is a catastrophe and a sin.

Everyone who comes and goes from this place is like living in luxury. Luo Yunyang and his family felt alien among these people.

"Are you here to congratulate Mr Ling, Madam?" a man who seemed to be on duty asked Shen Yunying hesitantly.

Although Shen Yunying had been living in Chang'an City for a few months and was no longer the stupid and inexperienced person she used to be, she still found it hard to be calm when asked that way.

"What... What the hell were you saying? Who is Mr Ling? My uncle's surname is not Ling!" Shen Yunying stammered. Suddenly a female servant approached quickly and whispered something in the manager's ear.

Although he whispered, Luo Yunyang could clearly hear everything he said.

"They're invited to the Mu Family's birthday party, sir."

The manager frowned before pointing towards the small side door inside the hotel. "Your party's there." When he finished speaking, he threw away his face.

Shen Yunying felt a little embarrassed and pulled her son over quickly. "Let's go. I think I made a mistake..."

Luo Yunyang was very unhappy with the manager's attitude. If his mother wasn't in a hurry to go to the birthday party, he would have taught the manager a lesson.

Luo Yunyang recalled the manager's face. Once home, he would use his communication tools to contact Chen Yong.

"Yinching! Come here!" a middle-aged man of about 40 years old with a few strands of white hair called out to Shen Yunying and gestured her from the side door.

Shen Yunying quickly pulled Luo Dong'er over and said, "We almost got into the wrong party, Big Brother. This is your uncle, Dong'er. Call him uncle!"

Luo Dong'er followed her mother very sweetly. The man replied to her with a laugh before turning his attention to Luo Yunyang.

"This is my son, Yunyang. He just came back, that's why I brought him." Shen Yunying embraced Luo Yunyang's shoulder as she introduced him.

The man's brows furrowed for a moment before saying, "Good, good, just in time. Old man loves a big party."

Luo Yunyang entered the narrow room before realizing his uncle was frowning again. More than 40 people had gathered in the small room.

Although there were two tables set in the middle of the room, some of the young people had to stand.

The old man who was his great-uncle looked to be around 80 years old. Even though he was very old, he was still full of spirit. When he saw Shen Yunying, he laughed out loud. "Your cousin wants to show off his wealth by making a reservation here. One important family is also having a birthday reception today, so we're forced to jostle here!"

"Not yet!" Luo Yunyang suddenly felt many pairs of eyes looking at him. Although he was not bothered thanks to his high Intelligence Attribute, he still felt his heart tighten slightly.

"Oh, you must seize every opportunity! You can get some lovers. Ha ha! Your great-uncle threw a net everywhere and caught a lot of fish!"

When he heard his great-uncle's joke, Luo Yunyang started to feel calm. Although the room was crowded, the atmosphere inside was harmonious.

"I heard aunt say that you joined the army, Yunyang. It's a good thing, but I think the job is too dangerous. You should have gone to university. The university life was extraordinary." a young man who was quite handsome chuckled. He was the male cousin of Luo Yunyang.

From the words of his cousin, Luo Yunyang learned that he was the eldest grandson of his great-uncle. His name was Mu Junsheng and now he was a student in Chang'an City.

Their conversation was like an unrelenting chatter between young men. Upon hearing that, Luo Yunyang realized that his life was very different from his cousin's.

"The giant beast is getting closer. Are we going to be able to stop a ferocious beast that is the size of a mountain? That's a completely senseless task! There are still many tomorrow, but if you keep putting things off for tomorrow, nothing will be achieved. Therefore, we should be happy while we can enjoy life!"

"Some friends from my class liked the army. When I get back, I'll introduce some pretty girls to you!"

Luo Yunyang was startled as he listened to Mu Junsheng's erroneous reasoning. Mu Junsheng did not have the slightest fighting spirit, but the logic behind his words was also unacceptable.

Perhaps it was normal for a young man in his prime to think that way. Luo Yunyang had seen the giant ferocious beasts, so he knew that they were extremely strong. If someone who had experienced such a thing felt extremely worried about facing a gigantic savage beast, it was reasonable that Mu Junsheng felt even more worried and fearful.

Luo Yunyang quickly mingled between the commotion and the conversation around him. People continue to talk casually about trivial things in their daily lives.

Slowly, Luo Yunyang began to realize that something was wrong. They had been sitting for half an hour, but why was there no indication that food would be served soon?

Although the two sons of his great-uncle were chatting and joking with other relatives, the worry on their faces could not be masked.

Brak!

The door of the room was suddenly kicked and a tall and burly man entered the room then said loudly, "Everything is silent! Don't you realize that you're bothering other people? We've been generous enough to let you have a birthday party here! Don't you have any shame? If I hear any more voices, I'll throw you all out!"

A little boy who had previously played cheerfully suddenly cried in surprise.

The man reached out in annoyance to grab the child's collar. Mu Junsheng's father who was standing next to the child stopped him. "It's just kids..."

"You asked for it!" the man swung his fist towards Mu Junsheng's father without saying anything more.

Everyone watched as the palm of the person was about to smash into it before another hand stopped it. Before the burly man could speak, Luo Yunyang had exerted strength in his hands.

Cracks!

A crackling sound rang out as the ruthless man's arm twisted and broke. The excruciating pain made the man scream like **** which was being slaughtered.

"What's going on?" In an instant, more than 10 people rushed over. Among them was a person with a martial master badge embedded in his chest.

"Sister Lee! He hit me!" The cruel man took this opportunity to speak first. "My hands! Broken hand!"
