Chapter 1246: Chapter 711: They Are Not Convinced Chapter 1246: Chapter 711: They Are Not Convinced Ling Yu, although in pain, had never expected this scene to unfold.

His face was full of shock as he continued to stare foolishly at everything before him.

So, was this intentional?

Had he been deliberately hiding his abilities?

And showing weakness on purpose?

Tsk, he truly was cunning.

It was all because he had let his guard down too much.

If he hadn’t let his guard down, none of this would have happened.

But even if he hadn’t, he was already exhausted.

Besides, he was just about to knock the other party out.

So even if he was vigilant, there was nothing he could do.

Thinking of this, Ling Yu’s expression was complicated, but he said nothing.

Baldy was the first to object, reacting strongly.

“Dream on, kid. There’s no way he’ll acknowledge you as big brother. If he does, what’s to become of us brothers then?”

“It’s awkward for us too. After all, we are his brothers, yet he acknowledges you as big brother–where does that leave us?”

“Have you even considered us? He is not a lone individual; he’s part of our team, so we share the honors and the burdens!”

The others didn’t discuss these words.

How could they dare?

It was better not to complicate matters further.

Whatever they thought, they kept to themselves.

If it really came down to it, they’d just have to leave; no need to stay here and watch the drama.

Just then, Qin Yuan hooked up the corner of his lips and slowly said,
“This matter between me and Ling Yu has nothing to do with you, so don’t lump yourselves together with us.”

“Besides, I’m asking Ling Yu to be my follower, not any of you. Why such a big reaction?”

“If you really oppose him being my follower, then let him continue fighting me. Defeat me, and he won’t have to be my follower anymore.”

Qin Yuan’s tone was entirely provocative.

He looked down at Ling Yu from on high.

Such was the demeanor of a king.

It was because he had won, which made him so imposing.

Hearing this, Baldy’s face turned strange, his reaction even stronger.

“Cut out the taunting, I will never agree to him acknowledging you as big brother.”

“If he is to have a big brother, that would be us, not you–got that?”

“Besides, he hasn’t conceded defeat yet; he can still stand up, so you’re being premature with your conclusions!”

After saying this, Baldy immediately looked at Ling Yu.

He raised his eyebrows, a gesture that spoke louder than words.

It was a clear signal for Ling Yu to stand up immediately.

Ling Yu, of course, saw the look.

He struggled to get up.

But the pain was too unbearable, so he didn’t stand.

After a while, Black Bear quickly said,
“Ling Yu, don’t just lie there; get up quickly. Are you out of strength? If you are…”

“We can help you stand, you just need to keep fighting this kid. We won’t just stand by…”

“and watch you call this kid big brother. After all, we are your big brothers. If you acknowledge him, where do we stand?”

Mountain Brother also nodded, “Exactly, as long as we’re here to watch over, we won’t let him take advantage of you!”

This kid just wants an advantage, huh?

He even wants to be Ling Yu’s big brother?

What was he thinking?

His skin couldn’t possibly be any thicker.

They wouldn’t allow it.

Besides, they had really thought Ling Yu would KO this kid outright.

They hadn’t expected Ling Yu to be KO’d by this kid instead.

It was completely beyond their expectations.

And shocking too.

But now that it had happened, they couldn’t possibly admit it.

How could they? If they admitted it, they would lose all their dignity.

At this moment, there was not a hint of anger on Qin Yuan’s face; his tone remained calm.

“It seems you really won’t let him acknowledge me as big brother. Haven’t I already said this is a matter between him and me?”

“Since it’s between us, we should handle it. You guys shouldn’t get involved.”

“If you really do want to get involved, then how about this? There are three of you, right?”

Qin Yuan didn’t continue.

But his words had already piqued their curiosity.

Their faces were all filled with curiosity.

Baldy was somewhat impulsive, immediately saying,
“What is it? Just say it. Why are you acting like a mute, saying only half the story?”

The most annoying thing was mutes like that.

If you’re capable, say it all. What does saying half even mean?

This kid couldn’t possibly be messing with them on purpose.

If that was the case, they wouldn’t let him off easily.

Qin Yuan, unoffended, then slowly continued,
“Well, you three should each take a turn fighting me. If you all beat me, I will become your follower, but if I win against all of you.”

“Then you will have to become my followers. Can you accept that? If you can, then you’d better start acting quickly.”

“If you can’t accept it, then Ling Yu must call me big brother.”

Qin Yuan spoke earnestly, not feeling there was anything inappropriate in his words–how could there be? It was perfectly reasonable.
