Chapter 2097: No Evasion Allowed
Among the siblings, Ying Zuo can be said to be cautious and meticulous.
It’s something he can’t help; his background is not as favorable as his other brothers and sisters, and their father doesn’t much favor him either. Ying Zuo has always been worried that his father, Lord Ying Zhu, might be looking for an opportunity to cast him out of Divine Martial City.
Therefore, Ying Zuo doesn’t dare make any mistakes, fearing someone might seize upon them.
"Old Seven, shall we have our guest warriors come forth to spar with each other?" The Third Young Master said with a slight smile.
Though he spoke as if consulting Ying Zuo, he had already signaled to a black-robed guest by his side, who understood and promptly walked to the center of the square’s Battle Platform.
"Alright!" Ying Zuo responded.
Sending guest warriors to fight is an unavoidable tradition at the family meeting. If any offspring does not send their guest warriors to battle, it would displease Lord Ying Zhu.
The family meeting is an opportunity for Lord Ying Zhu to observe the overall strength of his descendants. Not sending your guest warriors to fight—what does that mean?
"Brother Cao Yi, I’m counting on you!" Ying Zuo said to his guest warrior Cao Yi beside him.
This Cao Yi is a Wanwu Realm Practitioner who always carries a large wine jug. Jing Yan had a deep impression upon seeing him.
Cao Yi half-opened his eyes as if just waking, saluted Ying Zuo, and wandered onto the Battle Platform.
Although Cao Yi’s demeanor was not impressive, nobody present, including the young masters and ladies, underestimated him. Everyone knew that Cao Yi and Lu Tuan were two Wanwu Realm Practitioners beside Ying Zuo.
