Chapter 1024: Du Family Legitimate Line (31)
The siblings couldn’t help but tightly bite their lips, knowing the hope was slim, but they had no choice, for a home was not complete without parents; otherwise, they would be orphans. Thus, they had to persist no matter what.
"What are your names?" Yang Ruxin asked, looking at the brother and sister.
"I am Du Yunpeng, eighteen this year, and that is my sister Du Man, who is fifteen," the youth said with a resonant voice. Even in such a dire situation, his demeanor showed not a hint of servility, "We have studied literature and trained in martial arts since we were young..."

Ye San immediately charged into the fray.

Yang Ruxin frowned.

Yang Ruxin hastily called out, "Stop."
