Chapter 123
"...
"
"Hey, hey, brother, look at you, why do you seem to have heard of this Tang Huan?
"
"Tang Huan, you don't even know how long it has been since you last left Feng Ming Mountain? Tang Huan's reputation has increased tremendously in the past few months, and there aren't many people who do not know about him.
"
"Uh, it shouldn't be that exaggerated. Isn't he the chief of the 'Weapon Refining Competition'?
"
"He is not the ordinary chief of 'Weapon Refining Competition'! Before he became the chief of the competition, he was able to ignite the fire totem 12 meters away in the Furious Waves City!
"
"What?
" Twelve meters?
"
"...
"
"Tang Huan? Is he Tang Huan?
"
"I've long heard of him. He's actually so young!
"
"Tsk tsk, the physique of the five elements gold. A twelve meter long totem flame, after just fusing with the True Fire, he became a low level Weapon Refiner that was recognized by the Divine Weapon Pavilion. Then, in a short two months, he became the chief of the 'Weapon Refining Competition'. Such a genius is something that will rarely be seen in thousands of years.
"
"With this aptitude, he even surpasses the evildoer from Heavenly Forging City. If we were to run on the same line, she might not necessarily be able to win against this Tang Huan.
"
"...
"
After a moment of silence both inside and outside the resting area, the sound waves actually shook the heavens.
"Tang Huan?
"
Opposite Tang Huan, Gu Ying and the others, on the other hand, Hong Tao, after his initial doubt, had a somewhat uncertain expression.
"Above the 'Weapon Refining Competition', although Tang Huan refused to be recruited by the Royalty of Great Tang Imperial and the Royalty of Great Tang Imperial, he is still a citizen of the Great Tang Empire.
"Killing him is making an enemy out of Great Tang Empire, and also making an enemy out of Divine Weapon Pavilion. Hong Tao, are you offending Great Tang Empire and Divine Weapon Pavilion, or are you, the Hong family, worthy of offending Great Tang Empire and Divine Weapon Pavilion?
"
"You …
" Hong Tao's face turned ashen.
"I've said everything I need to say. Hong Tao, it is up to you to decide whether to kill or not. Of course, you might not be able to kill him.
" Gao Ling laughed, then turned around and left. Before he left, he raised his eyebrows at Tang Huan with a smile.
"Hong Tao, didn't you say you want to fight? Hurry, hurry!
" Gu Ying regained his senses and took a step back. He no longer stood in front of Tang Huan, but winked at Hong Tao fearlessly. Since Ye Ze was Tang Huan, and also had the identity of a Weapon Refiner, there was no need to worry.
"...
"
Hong Tao's face distorted. His face alternated between green and red. Clearly, he was struggling internally.
Even though he wished that he could tear the black-clothed youth in front of him into a thousand pieces, it was as Gu Ying had expected; he indeed did not dare to make a move right now.
If he did not know that
"Ye Ze
" was Furious Waves City's Tang Huan, and he killed him, no matter how angry Divine Weapon Pavilion got, there was nothing he could do, but now that he knew the other party's true identity, if he still killed him in front of everyone's eyes, then it would not be long before the Divine Weapon Pavilion's experts appeared in the Hong family. At that time, even if it was the Sha Long Royal Family, they might not protect the Hong Family.
On impulse, it was highly likely that the clan would be annihilated.
"Gu Ying, he's just a coward that only bullies the weak and fears the strong. Isn't it too much of a burden for him to make a move against Brother Tang Huan?
" Tang Si winked at Gu Ying, his mouth was filled with sarcasm, as though he wanted the whole world to be in chaos.
"That's right, that's right. I overestimated him.
"
"...
"
Hearing Gu Ying and Tang Si singing together, Tang Huan did not know whether to laugh or cry.
But after looking at the minute movements on their hands and the positions they were in, Tang Huan suddenly understood what Gu Ying and Tang Si meant. Under this kind of stimulation, if Hong Tao was to panic and attack recklessly, even if he were to kill him, it would not cause any reaction from the other Sha Long Empire.
Being provoked in such a manner, Hong Tao's chest rose and fell rapidly. The fury in his eyes was on the verge of erupting.
Seeing that, an unnoticeable look of happiness flashed past Gu Ying and Tang Si's eyes, and they quietly went closer. But just at this moment, Hong Tao took a deep breath and laughed: Gu Ying, Tang Si, a coward, just be a coward.
As he spoke till here, Hong Tao's tone suddenly became extremely cold, and he said while grinding his teeth:
"Tang Huan, you better bless the following Martial Competition, and not let me meet with you, or else, I will definitely kill you! I want to see just what kind of reason Royalty of Great Tang Imperial and Divine Weapon Pavilion have for them to come to my Hong family if you die in the Martial Competition Field!
"
Finished speaking, Hong Tao waved his hand and led the few people behind him away without stopping. He left in an extremely straightforward manner.
"What a pity!
"
Gu Ying and Tang Si retracted their gaze, looked at each other, and sighed at the same time.
They were indeed planning to kill Hong Tao. However, they never expected that Hong Tao would actually calm down in the end and let their plan fail.
"It's alright, there are so many people participating in the Martial Competition, let alone if we can meet them, even if we do meet them, the outcome is still unknown.
" Tang Huan laughed unwittingly, he was not too concerned about Hong Tao's sudden retreat. Now that he was facing a peak level 5 opponent, although he was not sure if he could win, but if the opponent wanted to defeat him, or even kill him, it would not be an easy task.
Gu Ying and Tang Si slightly nodded when they heard this.
If they did not know Tang Huan's identity, they might have been worried that he would not be a match for Hong Tao. But now, they were much more at ease with Tang Huan. A Stage Five Martial Master whose True Fire was almost comparable to a high ranking Weapon Refiner, his strength was probably not weaker than a expert at the peak of the fifth step.
"Oh yes, should I call you Brother Ye Ze now, or Brother Tang Huan? I already know about your true identity, and I actually helped you hide it from us for so long. Gu Ying shook his head and sighed, looking as if he was sighing with emotion, but his heart was a little depressed. Before he had participated in the first round of martial arts competitions, he had faintly heard Gu Fei call out
"Tang Huan
", but unfortunately, he did not really care about it at the time.
"Bro, if you say that again, I'll ignore you.
" Gu Fei pouted.
"Brother Gu, Brother Tang, you two should just call me 'Tang Huan'.
"
"...
"
"Tang Huan?
"
Within the resting area on the right, Tang Long fiercely shot up.
He had been watching the scene over there with a smile the entire time, but because he was too far away and couldn't hear the voice speaking, it was only now that he caught the two words
"Tang Huan
" from the Martial Warriors's shout, and knew that the one called
"Ye Ze
" over there was Tang Huan.
Tang Long was extremely familiar with this name.
In his eyes, Tang Huan's existence was not only his father's fault, but also the shame of all the people in Tang Family. Especially after the
"Weapon Refining Competition
", the Furious Waves City had probably become the laughing stock of the entire Great Tang Empire, even more so. Even in this Feng Ming Mountain, he had heard people ridicule the Tang Family more than once as being unable to see through their treasure, as they would throw away their most precious pearl like it was sand.
"Is a lowly bastard that was raised by a servant worthy to be my, Tang Long's, brother? Tang Huan, this time, I will definitely not let you leave Feng Ming Mountain alive!
"
Tang Long's voice was like a mosquito's, but it almost squeezed out a string of words from between his teeth.
Tang Long's eyes were as cold as a poisonous snake's, the killing intent in his heart had never been as strong before!
