"No, this isn't a matter of believing or not!"
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Yang Mei became even more anxious.
She did believe in Lin Yuelong's combat power. With his abilities, no one of the same cultivation level in the entire capital would be his match.
But the problem was that Yang Jian was no longer at the late stage of Core Formation; he had already reached the Half-step Nascent Soul realm!
Under such circumstances, if Lin Yuelong fought Yang Jian, it would only lead to certain death.
"It's just not allowed! No matter what!"
Yang Mei stated with absolute certainty.
No matter what, she would not allow Lin Yuelong to be harmed because of her, would she?
Lin Chen, in front of her, had indeed helped her before, saving her and her daughter's lives.
However, on such a principled issue, she absolutely could not compromise!
"Um, Aunt Yang, how about we step aside and talk?"
Seeing that Yang Mei was genuinely concerned about Lin Yuelong, Lin Chen suggested.
He could see that Yang Mei's persistent attempts to stop Lin Yuelong from fighting Yang Jian were fundamentally rooted in her fear of him getting hurt.
However, his second uncle had also said that no matter what, they had to seize this opportunity to settle the matter today, didn't they?
"Alright."
Seeing that Lin Chen had something to say to her, Yang Mei, though curious, nodded in agreement.
The two then moved to a corner of the parking lot.
For the sake of caution, Lin Chen casually set up a cloaking formation around them to prevent anyone from eavesdropping on their conversation.
Upon seeing Lin Chen directly set up a formation to block eavesdropping, Lin Yuelong and Yang Jian, who were observing from a distance, instinctively retracted their gazes and looked at each other.
It was obvious that both of them had been plotting to eavesdrop.
They just hadn't expected Lin Chen to set up a formation to block them at this moment!
"Hello, Aunt Yang. My name is Lin Chen, and Lin Yuelong is my paternal second uncle."
"I know what you're worried about, and I've also heard about your situation."
"How about letting my second uncle settle things with Yang Jian? He'll be fine!"
Lin Chen then looked at Yang Mei and expressed his thoughts.
It was clear that the long-standing grievance between his second uncle and Yang Jian wasn't a matter of one or two days, and they would definitely choose a suitable time to resolve it, wouldn't they?
Although Yang Jian had reached the Half-step Nascent Soul realm this time, he had already given his second uncle the Pure Heart Pill!
As long as he took the Pure Heart Pill and purged the impurities in his body, with Lin Yuelong's years of accumulation, he would immediately break through to the Half-step Nascent Soul realm.
This way, Lin Yuelong and Yang Jian would once again be cultivators of the same realm. If they fought, he definitely wouldn't be at a disadvantage, would he?
"Lin Chen, Yang Jian is no longer at the late stage of Core Formation!"
"Your second uncle fighting him will definitely lead to certain death!"
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Yang Mei looked troubled.
She wasn't unaware of Lin Yuelong's personality. For so many years, he had wanted to compete with Yang Jian.
But now, their cultivation levels were different; they weren't on the same playing field at all!
A Half-step Nascent Soul facing a late Core Formation cultivator, unless he was an exceptionally gifted peerless genius, how could he possibly be Yang Jian's opponent?
"I know that, of course. A mere Half-step Nascent Soul cultivator is nothing."
Hearing Yang Mei's concerned words, Lin Chen immediately stated his position.
He had killed Wu Quingui, who was at the Half-step Nascent Soul realm, with his early Core Formation cultivation. And now, his second uncle was at the late Core Formation stage!
Wasn't Yang Jian just a good-for-nothing who had forcibly boosted his spiritual energy to the Half-step Nascent Soul realm with pills?
What was there to fear?
"A mere Half-step Nascent Soul?"
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Yang Mei couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Good heavens, in the current cultivation world of Longguo, there weren't many Half-step Nascent Soul experts!
And each and every one of them held a significant position in Longguo.
A family could only become a true first-rate family once it had a Half-step Nascent Soul expert.
Only with a true Nascent Soul expert guarding it could it become a super-class family, standing above the mortal realm.
The Ten Great Families of Longguo were precisely such super-class existences.
It was precisely because Elder Long was a dignified Nascent Soul expert that so many people had come to his nephew's birthday banquet today.
And Yang Jian?
He was already a true Half-step Nascent Soul expert, and his master was also a true Nascent Soul expert!
Furthermore, there were rumors that this Nascent Soul expert would soon join the Yang family as a guest elder.
Therefore, the Yang family's future status would surely be on par with the Long family's, wouldn't it?
Under such circumstances, if Lin Yuelong were to provoke Yang Jian, even if he defeated Yang Jian in the arena competition today, he would still face Yang Jian's revenge, wouldn't he?
"Alright, Aunt Yang, don't worry, it'll really be fine!"
"He's my own second uncle. I won't just stand by and watch him get bullied!"
Lin Chen assured her.
It was around ten o'clock in the morning, and there were still two hours until lunch.
With a full two hours, it was enough time for his second uncle to take the Pure Heart Pill, purge the impurities in his body, and break through his current cultivation.
"This..."
Seeing Lin Chen's confident demeanor, Yang Mei became somewhat hesitant.
"Alright, alright, Aunt Yang, trust me, really."
"Let's go, we'll go over. You just watch the show later!"
After saying a few more words to Yang Mei, Lin Chen turned and returned to the crowd.
"Xiao Chen, what's going on?"
As soon as Lin Chen returned, Lin Yuelong immediately asked.
It was clear that he was the one supposed to compete with Yang Jian, so why had Lin Chen pulled Yang Mei aside for a private chat?
"Second Uncle, agree to it. After lunch, at two o'clock in the afternoon, on the Long family's arena."
"Of course, it will be a fight to the finish, deciding victory and defeat!"
Lin Chen looked at Lin Yuelong and stated his plan.
Yang Jian had been gone for so long, and now he suddenly returned wanting to remarry Yang Mei. It was hard to believe there was no underlying motive, wasn't it?
"Good!"
"Yang Jian, on the arena, it's a fight to the finish, deciding victory and defeat. Do you dare to accept?"
Upon receiving Lin Chen's permission, Lin Yuelong immediately straightened his back and questioned Yang Jian.
He knew his nephew's current capabilities.
There were only a handful of Rank Four Alchemists in the entire Longguo!
Since his nephew had such confidence in him, it could only mean that he was going to give him some secret weapon, wasn't it?
