At the peak of the mountain, Lu Fang flew into a rage. “Hmph! They’re so shaless! It's only right that their secret realm was seized and their clansn were killed! These shaless scum should have been wiped out long ago!”
Murong Yuan’s expression also turned unsightly. “Preposterous! The qualification battle for the secret realm is no child’s play! It absolutely cannot—”
Boom!
Boom!
Along with the explosions, he also heard deafening roars.
Lu Fang was startled. “Hm? Could it be...”
Murong Yuan looked helpless. “Who else could it be! It’s her!”
***
In the arena, the disciples of the Yuqing Sect were clearly no strangers to this kind of commotion.
Sure enough, accompanying the din, Murong Yan roared ferociously, “Move aside! If you don’t get out of the way, I will flatten you!”
Though packed tight, the arena abruptly cleared a path that was over a few zhangs wide.
Right after, Gu Han and his group appeared before the crowd. Within the crowd, Zhi Xuan smiled delightfully, her eyes curving into crescents.
The person standing beside her was puzzled. “What are you laughing at?”
She kept her gaze on Gu Han. ”I’m just very happy that there’s an unexpected surprise!”
Murong Yan stopped at the edge of the arena. “Elder Wang, we’re not late, are we?!”
Elder Wang’s mouth twitched. “No... you’re not.”
Within the Yuqing Sect, everyone feared Luo Wushuang the most, while Murong Yan gave everyone the biggest headache.
Yang Lan and Jiang Feng made an exclamation, expressing their pleasant surprise.
“Brother!”
“Brother Gu!”
Yang Ying’s face lit up with joy, but the mont he saw Yang Lan, his expression darkened. “Yang Lan? Who did this?!”
Upon seeing the two approaching, Murong Yan’s expression also sank. “Huh? Injured?”
She could tell that Jiang Feng was seriously injured, but Yang Lan was even more gravely wounded. With a heavy swing of her Purple Golden Hamr, she smashed the arena. A deep fissure split open, snaking all the way to ng Qian’s feet and scaring her senseless.
Murong Yan was furious. “Who did this, Elder Wang?!”
She wasn’t familiar with Yang Lan, but it was different for Jiang Feng. Gu Han had entrusted him to her and Shen Xuan’s care. Seeing him so severely injured made her feel sowhat ashad to face Gu Han.
Elder Wang trembled with fright. You’re asking ? How should I know?
Shen Xuan also sneered coldly. “Who was bold enough to injure my junior brother?!”
Fearing Yang Ying would be implicated, Yang Lan just shook her head. “Brother, i-it’s fine.”
Yang Ying’s heart ached terribly. “Yang Lan...”
He understood perfectly well what the people from the Yang and ng families were doing.
ng Qian wore a haughty expression. With Yang Lin and ng Xing backing her, she felt invincible.
“I did it! Are you this little slut’s brother? Control your sister. If she dares provoke Yang Lin again, I won’t be so nice next ti!”
Yang Ying’s eyes turned red with anger.
Jiang Feng smiled bitterly. “Brother Gu, I—”
Gu Han frowned deeply. “Brother Jiang, you really need to put more effort into your cultivation. Otherwise, anyone can just jump out and bully you. Will these wounds of yours ever actually heal?”
Jiang Feng’s smile grew even more bitter. In this short month, he had already reached the ninth stage of the ridian Opening realm. He progressed in his cultivation faster than most, but compared to Gu Han, it was akin to a turtle’s pace.
Upon hearing Gu Han speak, ng Qian seed to rember that day’s events again, filling her expression with hatred. “And you! I still clearly rember the humiliation you gave !”
ng Xing’s gaze grew profound. “ng Qian, who is he?”
ng Qian replied hatefully, “He’s the Fengwu Court's chief disciple and Zuo Yang’s junior brother!”
ng Xing’s eyes narrowed to slits. “Is that so?! Were you the one who injured my little sister that day?”
Yang Lin’s face also darkened. “Were you responsible for what happened to Yang Fei?!”
Ignoring them, Gu Han just gave ng Qian a serious look. “Does your face not hurt anymore?”
A trace of intense malice suddenly flashed in ng Qian’s eyes. “I’ll definitely make you die a horrible death!”
Murong Yan grew furious. “What?! How dare you threaten Brother Gu! I will hamr you to death!”
ng Xing coldly glared at Murong Yan. “The audacity! Murong Yan, do you have a death wish?!”
anwhile, Yang Lin wore a sinister expression. “With the two of us here, I’d like to see who dares touch her!”
Nearby, Yuan Gang frowned deeply as he watched. “It’s him? So he actually went to Fengwu Court?”
Chu Kuang smiled. “Senior Brother, since he’s not dead, it ans he still has so luck. I’ll test him later!”
Yuan Gang understood what he ant, but he wasn’t too optimistic. “Junior Brother, you've already seen how arrogant and unruly that man is.”
With a confident look, Chu Kuang replied, “It doesn’t matter. Even the most unruly person is powerless before absolute strength. Considering his character, only by thoroughly beating him into submission will he willingly obey and be of use to you.”
Yuan Gang’s eyebrow raised. “Oh? If you can really subdue him, that would indeed be a good thing!”
The situation was on the verge of erupting into a full-blown fight, giving Elder Wang a splitting headache. “All of you, the competition is still ongoing! Don't cause trouble!”
Inwardly, he groaned. He had no power to oppose people of their standing!
Gu Han raised an eyebrow. “Competition? Is she also participating?”
Elder Wang sighed helplessly. “Her? Yeah.”
Gu Han’s eyes lit up. “Good! Then I challenge her.”
“You are...”
Gu Han’s expression turned solemn. The others had told him the competition rules beforehand.
“Fengwu Court, Gu Han, eighteen years old, eighth stage of the Essence Gathering realm!”
The crowd suddenly ca to a realization. Fengwu Court? So he's the chief disciple with a twenty-million yuan essence crystal bounty from both families? Considering he’s still alive and kicking, this has got to be a slap to both families' faces—no, they’ve already resorted to cheating. They have already lost all face.
“I...” Well aware of how strong Gu Han was, ng Qian’s face paled. She turned back, seeking help. “Brother...”
The crowd watched with great satisfaction. You were acting all tough and shaless earlier. Now that you've t your match, let’s see if you can keep being so cocky!
With his eyes fixed on Gu Huan, ng Xing took a deep breath. “Don’t you dare step into the arena.”
Getting ng Qian into the secret realm was a matter the two families had long agreed upon; it was the foundation of their cooperation. For this, they had even forsaken their reputation. They naturally wouldn't just let Gu Han co and stir up trouble.
“Otherwise, I will definitely—”
Before he could finish, Gu Han had already leaped onto the arena and looked at him curiously. “Definitely what? I couldn’t hear you. Could you repeat that?”
The crowd's hearts surged. As rumored, the chief disciple of the Fengwu Court dared to stand up to the two great families. His reputation was certainly well-deserved.
He’s fierce! Truly fierce!
Killing intent surged in Yang Lin’s eyes. “Get down there or die!”
Gu Han narrowed his eyes. “I’ve morised that sentence.”
Realizing thatGu Han had no intention of backing down, ng Qian’s face turned deathly pale. “D-don’t you dare...”
Gu Han sighed out of the blue. “I think I was too nice last ti.”
The word ’nice’ triggered the most terrifying mory in ng Qian’s mind. “D-don’t co over!”
Gu Han slowly raised his palm. “No more being nice this ti!”
Noticing that Gu Han was really about to take the initiative, ng Qian finally snapped, her emotions nearing collapse. “I su—”
Before the word ’surrender’ could leave her mouth, Gu Han instantly cut her off. “What?! You think I’m not your match? You dare to look down on ? How outrageous!”
The crowd was dumbfounded. She ant to say surrender, right? Could it be interpreted that way?
Killing intent flashed across Gu Han’s eyes, his aura surging as he charged toward ng Qian. Yang Lin and ng Xing saw what happened clearly.
“The audacity!”
“He’s asking for death!”
In that instant, the two disregarded the rules entirely. They abruptly shot forward, intending to stop him.
Murong Yan swung her hamr. “What?! Don’t you two bastards dare touch Brother Gu! Senior Brother, let’s go!”
Due to what happened to his junior brother, Shen Xuan also had a bellyful of anger. He was rely holding back. “Alright!”
They flashed as they charged toward Yang Lin and ng Xing, heralding a huge brawl!
