Chapter 2853
Kai recognized that this was a family issue and decided not to intervene. He remarked, “Your brother’s home is just up ahead, but private disputes aren’t permitted in Jialing County. So, I’m afraid it won’t be easy for you to take him away.”
Kai understood that now that Watt had become wealthy, he would be reluctant to return to the harsh conditions of the extreme north, not to mention the punishment that awaited him upon his return. This only made Watt more hesitant to leave!
Moreover, Kai was aware that as long as Watt remained in Jialing County, he was safe from being forcibly taken away, which was likely why Watt had chosen to come there in the first place!
“If he doesn’t come back with me, I’ll risk my life to take him!”
“He has brought shame upon my entire family, and I will not forgive him easily.”
Wajang’s face was filled with fury; he seemed determined to bring Watt back!
Seeing Wajang’s demeanor, Kai sighed and said, “In that case, I’ll accompany you. It might make it easier for you to take your brother back with my presence.”
“Thank you, Mr. Chen,” Wajang replied gratefully!
Although Wajang didn’t fully grasp what Kai meant by his presence making things easier, he was still appreciative of Kai’s willingness to help.
Kai followed Wajang to Watt’s courtyard, and upon seeing Watt, Kai noticed a momentary look of shock on his face!
Without hesitation, Watt turned to flee, but he was quickly stopped by the two clan members Wajang had brought along!
“Brother…”
Watt removed his mask and shouted at Wajang, panic evident in his voice!
“Silence! I have no brother like you. You’ve brought disgrace upon our family,” Wajang retorted angrily.
“Come back with me now and face the patriarch’s punishment.”
“Brother, I can’t go back. If I do, you’ll be in grave danger!”
“Please, don’t take me back…”
Watt suddenly knelt before Wajang, begging earnestly!
But Wajang remained unmoved, stepping forward to seize Watt by the shoulders to take him away!
“Brother, this is Jialing County. Don’t force my hand. If we fight, we’ll both face consequences,” Watt warned again, invoking the rules of Jialing County!
“Today, even if it means breaking the rules of Jialing County, I will bring you back,” Wajang declared.
With that, he made a strong move to pull Watt up!
Watt, quick on his feet, reacted with a sudden twist, grabbing Wajang’s wrist and using his momentum to lunge forward!
Wajang was caught off guard and stumbled back, taken aback by Watt’s unexpected resistance!
“Brother, I’ve told you, I won’t go back. If you force me, we’ll both perish; I’ll die if I return!” Watt said, his expression serious.
“Even if you die, your body will be brought back to face punishment,” Wajang replied as he prepared to leap and strike Watt!
It was clear that Wajang was completely unfazed by his brother’s defiance!
Seeing Wajang’s aggressiveness, Watt decided to abandon all restraint; he began to unleash a powerful surge of energy!
Watt’s intent was to attract the attention of the nearby guards of Jialing County, hoping they would intervene in the escalating fight!
Both Wajang and Watt were evenly matched, making it difficult to discern a clear victor in their skirmish!
Their brawl did draw the attention of the Jialing County guards!
However, the guards merely observed from a distance, none daring to intervene in the courtyard!
With Kai present, they knew they would face reprimands should they step in!
Watt and Wajang continued exchanging blows, but without any guards stepping in, panic began to set in!
Seizing the moment, Watt landed a powerful kick to Wajang’s stomach!
This sent Wajang flying, crashing hard onto the ground!
