Chapter 1349 - 1399: The Great Hero
Li Yifei saw Bunong nodding, and did not decline. He also nodded towards Bunong, stood up from his seat, and under the scrutinizing gaze of everyone, walked steadily outside. When he was two or three meters away, he stopped and looked calmly at Dai Lai. On the contrary, Dai Lai stared at Li Yifei with eyes like fire, shouting loudly. Brown, fearing the situation would become chaotic, translated by saying, "Dai Lai says he won’t hold back and will definitely defeat you. He is the strongest in the Miao Village, and Na Yi will only be happy with him."
"Thank you, Uncle Brown, for translating for me. Originally, I didn’t want to say much, but I really don’t like what Dai Lai said. First of all, he is not the strongest. Secondly, Na Yi is already my wife. We have already signed the Passion Worm, and we can never be separated in this life. Therefore, it’s impossible for Na Yi to be with him. I am standing here and will not accept a challenge with such a purpose."
Li Yifei spread his legs slightly, crossed his hands behind his back, and stood proudly with his chin slightly raised, letting Brown translate for him.
Once Brown finished translating, Dai Lai snorted heavily. Of course, he knew it was impossible for him and Na Yi, but he couldn’t swallow this betrayal. An outsider dared to be so arrogant. Pointing at Li Yifei, Dai Lai shouted angrily, "Let’s start. I want to show you the prowess of the Miao people."
"You first," Li Yifei said faintly. This sentence wasn’t translated, but Dai Lai could understand. He was thoroughly enraged by the opponent’s arrogance and contempt. The veins in his neck bulged, and his already dark skin looked even darker.
The clan chiefs and clan chief of the bamboo house all stepped out. They had heard about how mighty Li Yifei was, braving the Black Miao Village alone to rescue Bunong, but they weren’t entirely convinced. They also wanted to take this opportunity to see if Li Yifei was as formidable as he was said to be.
In the distance, several young girls gathered together, standing not far from the bamboo house and peeking over. Among them was Na Yi. The girls around her, all about the same age, were also little princesses from their villages. They accompanied their family today, wanting to catch up with Na Yi. When they learned she was already married, they were very surprised. The group coaxed Na Yi to show them her husband, which led them to climb up the bamboo house and peek over, causing a few of the young girls to exclaim.
"Na Yi, Dai Lai is challenging your husband. Oh my, go and stop them."
"Yes, Dai Lai is too ruthless. Your husband will get hurt."
Several young girls shouted anxiously, and some even wanted to pull Na Yi to stop the duel. They were too far away to hear what Li Yifei actually said and thought Dai Lai was using traditional Miao methods to decide Na Yi’s ownership through a duel.
Na Yi saw Dai Lai challenging Li Yifei but wasn’t worried about her husband’s safety at all. She furrowed her brows slightly and said, "This Dai Lai is truly overestimating himself. It’s good for him to suffer a little."
