Chapter 121
"Are you scared to death? It's true that you're scared to death. Brother Ye Ze, how are you prepared to compensate Gu Fei?" Without waiting for Tang Huan to speak, Tang Si continued with a ridiculing smile.
"Who …. Who said that? I'm not crying, I … I won't tell you. "
Gu Fei was extremely embarrassed and annoyed, she glared at Tang Si fiercely as her beautiful face blushed and stole a glance at Tang Huan. Then, she turned around and prepared to leave the resting area, but just as she ran out two steps, she almost bumped into a figure.
It was a tall and big young man that wore black clothes, had delicate and pretty facial features, and was extremely handsome.
But at this moment, his handsome face was gloomy, his eyes were cold and threatening, the long blade on his right shoulder seemed to be slightly trembling, the fiery red light fluctuated between strong and weak, like a bunch of flickering and jumping flames, a strong heat spread out in waves.
The black clothed man had also stopped his steps and stood still. However, his entire body was brimming with a murderous intent.
Gu Fei immediately realized that the situation wasn't right and reflexively retreated two steps. However, he frowned as he took a step back and placed himself horizontally in front of Gu Fei with the heavy sword in hand. He chuckled, "What, Hong Tao, can't wait to have a big battle with me right now?"
"Gu Ying, I'm not here to look for you. Get out of my way!"
The black clothed man called Hong Tao had a proud expression as he said that in a low voice. Two ice-cold gazes passed Gu Ying and Gu Fei and landed behind the two of them.
"Not looking for me?"
Gu Ying was startled, she subconsciously followed Hong Tao's gaze and looked back, only to realize that he was staring at Tang Huan, and a look of confusion surfaced in her eyes.
When did the Ye Ze brothers offend this troublesome fellow?
Among the Sha Long Empire's twenty year old or so young Martial Warriors, this Hong Tao, who was definitely able to rank in the top three, has already reached the peak of the fifth step and fully possesses the strength to defeat ordinary Stage Six Martial Master. Even Gu Ying did not dare to say that he could win against him.
With Tang Long in front and Hong Tao behind, the Ye Ze brothers were in deep trouble this time.
"Hong Tao, if you tell me to get out of the way, I will get out of the way. Do you take yourself to be a prince of the Sha Long Empire? Even if the prince of Sha Long Empire dares to be so arrogant in front of me, I will beat him up until he doesn't even know his mother. " In a second, Gu Ying burst out laughing.
"Gu Ying, you better think carefully. You can protect one, but you can't protect two!"
Hong Tao sneered, and his gaze swept across Gu Fei who was behind Gu Ying. His tone was dense and cold, and actually contained dense killing intent.
"You dare threaten me?"
Both of Gu Ying's eyes burned with fury as he raised the heavy sword in his hand. Not far away from him, Tang Si's fair hands had also silently shrunk into their sleeves. A cold light seemed to flash in his eyes.
Gu Fei clenched her fists tightly, her beautiful face was filled with anger.
Coincidentally, Gu Ying had returned to Furious Waves City not long ago, so Gu Jingcheng asked Gu Ying to bring her out for a walk around the mountain. Her strength had indeed risen extremely fast within the mountain, and she estimated that it wouldn't be long before she would become a Stage Five Martial Master.
But even so, she was still inferior to a powerful Stage Five Martial Master like Hong Tao.
In the past, she didn't pay much attention to it, but now, she hated herself for being so weak. If not for this, she wouldn't have been threatened like she was now.
Seeing this, Hong Tao snorted and the sneer on his face became even stronger.
At the same time, Hong Tao's right palm, which was holding onto the handle of his blade, slightly sank as the sharp blade seemed to leap up from his shoulder as he unleashed a torrential attack towards Gu Ying. Not far behind him, there were another five young men who seemed to have been summoned as they walked over quickly.
In an instant, this small piece of void was filled with a thick smell of gunpowder.
Outside of the resting area, many Martial Warriors had already discovered the tense situation. Apart from their curiosity, many of the Martial Warriors in the resting area revealed expressions of schadenfreude.
In this Feng Ming Mountain, the reputations of Gu Ying and Hong Tao were extremely loud and clear.
As long as one stayed at Feng Ming Mountain or Phoenix City for a period of time, there were very few Martial Warriors who had never heard of these two names. Be it Gu Ying or Hong Tao, both of them had long reached the peak of the fifth step.
With their condition, they could have long ago condensed the third stage of Spiritual Wheel.
The reason why he had yet to break through, was because he wanted to temper himself to the greatest extent possible. Only then would he be able to raise the Spiritual Wheel to the pinnacle in the process of becoming a Stage Six Martial Master. As a result, the difficulty of becoming a Stage Seven Martial Master in the future would greatly decrease.
In Feng Ming Mountain, there were many Martial Warriors like them.
To all the Martial Warriors who had entered the second round of Martial Competition, Gu Ying and Hong Tao were strong opponents. Other than a few who were of similar strength to them, no one would want to meet them in the upcoming competitions.
"Brother Gu, please calm your anger. Leave this matter to me."
Just as everyone was prepared to watch a good show, Tang Huan suddenly patted Gu Ying's shoulders lightly and walked out from behind him with a smile, directly facing Hong Tao.
"Brother Ye Ze, you..."
Gu Ying was shocked, Gu Fei's beautiful face also paled. Tang Si had already silently moved closer to Hong Tao without a sound, and within his sleeves, a green light seemed to flash.
"Hong Tao?"
Without waiting for Gu Ying to finish speaking, Tang Huan smiled indifferently: "I have heard of this name before, I presume you are that Hong Li's little brother?"
When Tang Huan called out this person's name, Tang Huan knew that he was here to find him.
That day in the Blood Blaze Mountain cave, Hong Li had used his little brother, Hong Tao, to threaten Tang Huan. Seeing that there was some movement on Hong Li's body after he died, Tang Huan knew that Hong Tao would come knocking on his door sooner or later. As expected, he appeared not long after the first round of Martial Competition ended.
"Ye Ze, did you really kill my brother?" Hong Tao's face was extremely cold. He almost squeezed out a string of characters from between his teeth.
"That Hong Qiang died under my Crimson Flame Spear."
"Your elder brother, together with Yuan Xiang and Wu Hui, killed more than ten Martial Warriors in the Bloody Flame Mountain and then set his sights on me. So, I can only learn from them and return back to being a bandit so that he can have a taste of being robbed and killed."
When Gu Ying, Tang Si and Gu Fei heard this, they were slightly stunned, and then they knew why Hong Tao had come looking for them.
His voice slightly paused, and Tang Huan said with some curiosity: "However, I am a little curious, how did you know that your brother was killed by me?"
"Fine, fine, just admit it. Since you want to know why I came looking for you so much, then I'll just let you die!"
In an instant, he took out a white ball from his bosom. It was about the size of an egg, sparkling like jade, and a blurry face appeared inside it, but one could still vaguely make out that it was Tang Huan.
