Chapter 62: Please show mercy

I walked slowly towards the training ground as Tian Hua ran up to me. "Gege, you're only playing with Shang Guan Yue right?" she asked, I looked at her laughed and replied "I don't know," and walked away. Ah, Tian Hua doesn't worry I make sure to leave your future husband in one piece. It's been quite some time since I've had a proper match with Shang Guan Yue. Shang Guan Yue can't beat me if I don't lend him a helping hand. "Yu Xuan goes to the Shang Guan mansion and asks Shang Guan Tao to come and help his brother," I advised. This gonna be a fun game. "Also Yu Xuan ask Shang Gu to prepare to have a good match," I smirked. Yu Xuan smirked and flew off to find my junior brother. It's been 6 months already since I've come back to Cheng'An. In two months it would be the Jiang Hu match and I first need to decide who should participate on behalf of the moon valley. Ah, why is it so hard? If I could choose then I would only be the moon valley lord and not Prince Tian You. So that means that I would be gone for a bit. Uhh. There's a gege I could ask him. Then he could use these days to get to know his siblings who he never actually met. I feel a bit mean but what can I do...

I ran up to the training grounds and noticed that everyone was already there. Was I late already? "Why's everyone here already?" I asked. Tian An stood up and replied, "We all rushed here once we heard there was gonna be a match. It's been some time since we've seen you fight,". "And?" I asked. "Uncle we wanted to see how handsome you were when you fought," declared Ming Yu. "Well said," I praised whilst picking her up. At that moment Shang Gu had led Shang Guan Yue, Shang Guan Wen and Mrs Cheng. I gestured for them to sit down and I led Shang Guan Yue up to the platform.

Shang Guan Yue came up to me and whispered "Senior brother, I've always treated you with respect so could please show mercy and let me go with a light match,". I smirked and whispered back "but my whole family watching me so sorry,". He looked bewildered so I laughed and walked over to the other side and grab a light sword. Shang Guan Yue also grab a sword so I signified our match was beginning. I looked over to the right side and noticed a dark hooded figure standing on one side away from everyone. He smiled at me and removed his hooded cloche to show his face. It was gege. Was he here to watch the match? I smiled at him and he nodded at me. The match would begin.
