章 354: The Red-Eyed Crocodile King

"But we're the top four families in Jiangnan... How can they do this..." stammered a young-looking Qian family member.

"We could just decline the challenge. It's just a written challenge, anyway," suggested someone else.

"Yeah, we don't have to accept it." said another family member, letting out a sigh of relief. Thank god for loopholes.

It wasn't a question of whether they could beat Gao Peng in combat or not. It just so happened that Gao Peng had an influential grandfather behind him. Even if they were able to win the duel, they weren't at all sure they could survive his grandfather's wrath.

Some of the Qian family members had the same idea.

"We can't decline the challenge," said the Qian family mistress, Qian Qingyuan, with a sigh. She was also against accepting Gao Peng's challenge. However, sometimes, bad things tended to happen in life for no reason at all.
