Chapter 315: The Unfortunate Story Of Yang Kai

"Eunuch?" The guy frowned.

Ye Tian Yun nodded and made a very tired face, "Yes. This is my friend, Yang Kai."

"He is also known as the youngest eunuch of our Fu Clan trading company."

"How can I believe that he is a eunuch?" The guy frowned, but his expression had softened a bit.

'It's okay, brother. I understand your pain.'

Ye Tian Yun let out a long breath and put his arm on Kai Yang's shoulders, "Yang Kai is my childhood friend. Last year, he messed up, and the clan head of Fu Clan, Fu Ker, had him castrated."

"What did he do?" Everyone around him gave a look of pity to Kai Yang.

Kai Yang, on the other hand, was stunned motionless due to what was happening.

And when he tried to say anything, he felt Ye Tian Yun's grip over his shoulders tighten, forcing him to keep his mouth shut.

Ye Tian Yun looked around everyone and whispered, "I can't tell you the story. Actually, I don't want rumors to spread about my dear friend and the Fu Clan."

The guy said, "It's alright, it's alright. We all are brothers here."

"Yes-yes!"

"Yeah, we all are brothers."

"We won't tell a single soul."

"I will take the secret to my grave."

People chimed in, interested to know what had happened.

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "Sigh, I can't tell you much, but trust me, things aren't easy for him."

"Just fill us in on the major details." Someone in the crowd heckled.

"Yeah, just tell the important things."

"Yes-yes, just give us a basic story. No need to go into details."

People around him tried to insist more.

Ye Tian Yun finally let out another sigh and made an expression of defeat, "Since you guys want to know the truth, I don't think I have the right to hide it."

Taking a deep breath, he continued, "You guys all know the rivalry between the Kang Clan and Fu Clan, right?"

Seeing everyone nod, Ye Tian Yun continued, "This rivalry is for some unknown reasons. However, it has now become so intense that Fu Clan head, Fu Ker, wants to build a wall between the Kang Clan and the Fu Clan's territory."

"Unfortunately for my friend, Yang Kai, he comes from a simple clan, and the members of his clan work in both of those big clans."

"But if a wall were to be really built, he would have to choose between his work or his family."

"This choice… as you can see, isn't something we would like to face in our simple lives. But my friend here had to choose one. There was no other option."

"But then, he came up with an idea. He alone went and argued with the clan elders and tried to convince them."

"But he was beaten and told to shut the fuck up."

"And got castrated?" The guy in front of him added.

"Ohhh!" The crowd gave a look of pity to Kai Yang.

Ye Tian Yun let out a sigh, "No."

"Ahhhh!" The crown let out a sigh of relief.

"He protested." Ye Tian Yun said.

"He protested that he would cut his balls off if they didn't stop the wall contraction. He told his friends, his parents, his clan members, and his whole town that he would cut his own balls if the Fu Clan really went on and decided to build the wall."

"What?" The confused crowd turned their heads to Yang Kai.

Ye Tian Yun let out a sigh, "The Fu Clan didn't listen to his protests, and the proposal to build the wall was passed."

"And on the day those people laid the foundation of the wall, my dear friend Yang Kai cut his balls."

Kai Yang: "..."

The Crowd: "..."

Ye Tian Yun continued to speak with an emotional expression, "And to this day his balls hang on the Wall of Fu Clan - a testimony of his testicular protest."

…

The crowd remained silent and then slowly shook their heads.

They didn't know how to react.

Whether to laugh or pity Kai Yang.

Even the guy had a complicated expression.

After a moment of silence, seeing no one saying anything, Ye Tian Yun added, "I apologize to everyone," Then, turning towards the guy, he added, "I hope you can now believe me."

The guy nodded, and with a pitying face, he patted Kai Yang's shoulders and gestured to them to leave.

Ye Tian Yun nodded, and without any delay, he took Kai Yang with him.

Not long after, the whole market suddenly burst into laughter.

…

"What the fuck!" Kai Yang almost snarled as soon as they entered the Tavern, attracting everyone's attention.

Ye Tian Yun didn't pay any heed and directly headed to his table.

Jun Xie was sitting alone at the table and was taken aback by the sudden outburst from Kai Yang.

Seeing both Ye Tian Yun and Kai Yang take a seat, Jun Xie asked, "What happened?"

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "He's angry because I saved his life."

"No! You told the whole world that I am a eunuch!" Kai Yang gritted his teeth.

Ye Tian Yun let out a sigh, "Don't worry. No one was surprised."

"You-you bastard!" Kai Yang suddenly went on to punch him.

Surprisingly his punch went directly through Ye Tian Yun, confusing him for a second.

Something suddenly dawned upon him, and he stared at Jun Xie with irritation, "Senior Brother Jun, please remove the illusion."

Jun Xie shrugged, "Don't fight here."

Kai Yang gritted his teeth and accepted defeat. He knew there was no other way around the situation.

Jun Xie nodded, "That's better."

And in the next instant, Ye Tian Yun appeared on the chair opposite of Kai Yang, and the one to his adjacent chair disappeared.

"Now," Jun Xie said with a serious expression, "I don't want you guys to start any fight before the mission is over. Take it back to the sect. More importantly, I have something urgent to discuss."
