Bab 20: Chapter 19 Zhao Wuji's Anger, Tang San's Decision_1
On the other side.
In a tavern.
Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun were already battered and bruised.
"We are just students from Shrek, nothing more."
"You, a mighty Soul King and a teacher from Canghui Academy, getting involved in the affairs of us youngsters, do you really feel no shame?"
Oscar's face was full of defiance.
Opposite them stood an elder with a turtle shell on his back.
Beneath his feet, five soul rings pulsed, demanding respect.
Ma Hongjun said, "Little Ao, save your breath. When he made his move, he had already thrown his dignity to the floor."
"Hehehe, what a bunch of sharp-tongued kids."
Upon hearing this, the elder with the turtle shell laughed, "Since you're from an academy, you must have a teacher leading the team, right? Where is he?"
"Hehe, if Teacher Zhao knew we were being bullied here, he would definitely break your dog legs."
"You should be glad he's not here," Ma Hongjun said with a cold sneer.
"Interesting."
"Really interesting."
"Whether he will break my legs or not, I don't know, but if I don't break yours, my name is not Ye Zhiqu!" the elder with the turtle shell said as he stepped forward, a ferocious light in his eyes.
"You, don't come any closer, if you dare, let us go and bring our teacher here," Ma Hongjun suddenly panicked.
In front of absolute strength, he was just a king of bluster.
"This fatso, can't you be a little nicer with your words?"
"Can't he see that we're just stalling for time, waiting for Teacher Zhao to realize we're missing and come to rescue us?" Dai Mubai was really anxious about such a pigheaded teammate.
With no choice left...
As Ye Zhiqu advanced, they kept retreating step by step.
Suddenly.
Oscar's gaze fixed on a familiar figure in the crowd, "Boss Dai, is that… His Majesty the Thunder Emperor?"
Oscar's eyes were so swollen at the moment that only slits remained, which significantly reduced his vision.
Therefore, he was not sure if he was seeing things.
"Where?"
Dai Mubai was overjoyed. If it really was His Majesty, they would be saved.
"There!"
Oscar pointed.
Dai Mubai looked over, and his pupils shrank instantly.
Isn't that handsome young man standing with his arms folded and watching the fun none other than Qin Xiao?
"It really is His Majesty..."
"However, it seems that His Majesty has no intentions of helping us..." Dai Mubai said with a wry smile.
He had just thought he'd found a life-saving boat, only to see the boat flipping over before he could even get on board.
"We can't worry about so much now."
Ma Hongjun also looked towards Qin Xiao, shouting, "Your Highness, we're over here..."
As he spoke, he waved frantically at Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao didn't budge.
You've got to be kidding.
Why would he intervene out of the blue to help these three swordsmen from Shrek?
Besides.
It goes without saying, all three have only themselves to blame for their current predicament.
Of course.
The most important reason was that the System had not issued any mission.
"Uh..."
Ma Hongjun felt awkward.
Qin Xiao ignored him...
But his behaviour had caught Ye Zhiqu's attention.
Your Highness?
Could it be that a Titled Douluo is present?
Subconsciously, Ye Zhiqu followed Ma Hongjun's gaze and immediately spotted Qin Xiao.
He laughed, "Kid, even if you wanted to fool me, at least find someone more convincing. This young man is only a few years older than you, and you call him Your Highness?"
"Hahaha, you're killing me with laughter."
Ye Zhiqu rocked with laughter.
"Kid, tell me, are you His Highness?" His laughter subsiding, he couldn't help but ask Qin Xiao.
He didn't notice that at a distance, Oscar, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun were already looking at him as if he were a dead man.
Ye Zhiqu's actions perfectly embodied the saying that one who seeks death shall find it...
Living well, bullying the weak, wasn't that good enough for him?
Meanwhile.
Qin Xiao still asked with a faint smile, "Do you find it funny?"
"Is that even a question?"
Without a second thought, Ye Zhiqu replied, "Of course, it's fu.."
But, the last character 'funny' was something he just couldn't say no matter what.
It was as if an invisible hand was gripping his throat tightly, or as though a fishbone was stuck in his throat.
The next moment, his eyes started to bloodshot, and his face turned the color of a pig's liver.
"What's going on here?"
"Teacher, what's wrong with you? Could it be some old ailment has recurred?"
'...'
Behind Ye Zhiqu, a group of Canghui Academy students were stunned silly by the sudden turn of events.
"Your Highness, let me handle this," said Zhao Wuji.
"After all, it was a matter stirred up by Dai Mubai and the other two."
"Don't worry, the outcome will definitely satisfy you," he assured.
On the other side, behind Qin Xiao, the voice of Zhao Wuji rose.
Qin Xiao turned around, glanced at Zhao Wuji, then slowly nodded.
Zhao Wuji strode forward with determination.
"Teacher Zhao...."
Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar called out in surprise and delight.
This was truly a life-saving straw.
By then, Ye Zhiqu had also returned to normal.
"Teacher Zhao, they call you teacher? Just now, it was you messing around, wasn't it?" he asked, feeling like he'd found the real answer.
"Messing around?"
"I'll mess with your granny!" Zhao Wuji cursed and slapped Ye Zhiqu across the face.
Smack!
Ye Zhiqu spun several circles from Zhao Wuji's slap before landing face-first on the ground.
"I'll show you how to prattle..."
"You dare to question His Highness?" Zhao Wuji felt unsatisfied and lashed out with a series of kicks.
Even with his Martial Soul activated, Ye Zhiqu couldn't bear it.
He let out continuous screams of agony.
The students of Canghui Academy were dumbstruck.
Who was this person that even a Soul King was being hammered on the ground with their Martial Soul active? Was this really happening?
Even Oscar and the others felt that today's Teacher Zhao was unusually ferocious.
...
In the Aquipeia Forest.
Tang San suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"Xiaowu, wait a second," he said.
Xiaowu looked at Tang San, puzzled, "Xiaosan, what's wrong?"
"I think I'm about to make a breakthrough," Tang San said, joy flickering in his eyes.
"How can it be so soon? Normally, you'd need another ten days or half a month to break through," she observed.
"Maybe it's because I've been under some stress lately," Tang San replied with a wry smile.
Actually, that was indeed the case.
The stress was enormous.
From the moment he saw Qin Xiao, his heart was constantly being stimulated.
An eighteen-year-old Titled Douluo, what an outrageous talent, trampling so many geniuses to the ground. How could one possibly catch up with such accomplishments?
Even with Tang San's previous life's experience and the Mysterious Heaven Method, such talents were incomparable.
Qin Xiao's gift was just too heaven-defying.
Originally, it was still bearable; he could only say he was very envious, even somewhat jealous.
But it had been a different matter altogether.
Such a talent turning out to be an enemy!
It was simply outrageous!
At the same time, he was truly anxious.
"An enemy like Qin Xiao is just too terrifying. If I can't grow quickly, in the future..."
"No."
"I might not even have a future, and there's also my father, he's in danger too," Tang San whispered.
Xiaowu instinctively gripped Tang San's hand tighter, "Maybe things won't be that bad."
"No," Tang San shook his head, "Angering Qin Xiao, will only make things worse."
"So, from now on, I will stop at nothing to find a way to kill him."
